Chapter Eighty-Seven: Breaking Free from the Shackles

Gaoyang Road, Xu's high-end shoe store.

"How much do these cotton shoes cost?"

"Three pieces of five."

"Buy!"

……

Five streets, Yangtze clothing store.

"This suit is Paramon? How much? ”

"Twenty-five."

"Buy!"

……

"Buy!"

"Buy!"

"Buy!"

……

Throughout the morning, Bao Guowei took the old bag to appear in clothing stores in various parts of the city and consumed it.

In addition to warm cotton clothes, autumn pants, and cotton shoes, it is needless to say that the luxurious brocade and satin and hard-soled leather shoes are not to be said.

By the way, Bao Guowei also bought himself a silver-gray suit of the British Paromon brand, a beige jacket, and a few new pairs of shoes and socks.

These high-end clothes alone cost nearly 120 yuan.

Bao Guowei is willing to do it - the family has suffered for so many years, and there is really no need to be struggling anymore, even if the social value of high-end clothes is not considered, it is good to satisfy Lao Bao's vanity.

Moreover, Bao Guowei is confident that he will only earn more and more money in the future.

And Lao Bao was so distressed, more than 100 yuan, with his previous salary, excluding the cost of firewood, rice, oil and salt, I don't know how many years it will be enough!

Lao Bao changed into a brown brocade coat, brown autumn pants, and hard-soled black leather shoes with fur on the outside as Master Qin, he stood in front of the newly bought large mirror at home, and opened his mouth tremblingly:

"Am I really a master?"

Then a pile of brand-new banknotes was handed to Lao Bao, all of which were two or five large bills.

"If there is something missing at home, buy more, ask a few people to move the things in the old mansion, and don't forget to pay back the fifteen yuan borrowed from the Zhang family."

……

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and after changing into new clothes, people's whole appearance and temperament will naturally change.

And because he knew that he had a lot of surplus wealth in his family, he naturally had seven or eight more confidence in his heart, which was directly reflected on Lao Bao's face, and the subordinates of the Qin Mansion could directly see it:

The housekeeper is really different this time.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the people of the Qin Mansion gathered by the steps outside the street, enjoying a belated lunch, but saw the brightly dressed Bao father and son passing by.

Seeing the clothes of the two, I couldn't help but cause a discussion among the subordinates:

"See! See! The old bag is worn today! It's the same as Master Qin! ”

"Be quiet! It's also called the old bag! If you want to call the bag housekeeper, can you call the old bag? ”

Hearing what the subordinates on the side said, Hu laughed while sitting in the middle, and said in an unhurried tone:

"Hehe, I'm afraid I won't be called a housekeeper in the future."

"Don't call it a butler? How so? ”

Hu Da shook his head and didn't answer the question, but the smile on his face became stronger.

"Anyway, why is the big housekeeper so happy today?"

"Criticism! You don't know what's going on with the Bao family...... Right! It should be called Linzi! Master Qin and Section Chief Gao are both worried, can Lao Bao still be happy? ”

"Not only did the old bag change into new clothes, but the housekeeper's son also changed into a new dress today! This color is like silver, and it is even more beautiful and generous than the previous one! See! ”

"I think I have to find a way to ask my daughter to seduce Bao Guowei! The old Bao family is really amazing this time! You can change your dress! ”

"Don't think about it, tell you a piece of gossip, I accidentally heard Master Qin and the eldest lady talking yesterday, guess what......"

……

In the main house of the Qin family, the festive atmosphere of the previous days is still there, and the eaves and walls everywhere are still full of lights, and the lanterns have not been removed.

Master Qin and Mrs. Qin sat on both sides of the round table in the main living room, with a few cups of tea brewed in the white pottery cups on the table, and a few books and newspapers lying on the table.

Lao Bao and Bao Guowei stood together in the aisle below.

Seeing that the old bag had been changed into a brand new brown satin dress, Old Man Qin had a premonition in his heart what this old butler was here to do today.

Old Bao stood straight in front of Master Qin, and standing beside him was Bao Guowei.

It's just like that moment, but it's a little different:

Ten years ago, Lao Bao begged Master Qin to put Bao Guowei in the house, and sought a chance for Bao Guowei to go to school.

Ten years later, Bao Guowei took Lao Bao to resign, and Lao Bao broke free from the shackles that had bound him for decades.

"Master Qin, my Bao family has served the Qin family for three generations, and it has been seventy-four years now, but now, my Bao family has produced a good son and grandson, Bao Guowei."

Hearing Lao Bao say this, Master Qin knew that this day had finally come.

Although he had already prepared in his heart, when this subordinate, who had been in the Qin Mansion for more than fifty years, really asked him to resign, he was still a little incredulous.

He couldn't help but glance sideways at Mrs. Qin, the eyes of the husband and wife were facing each other at this moment, and both of them could see some surprise in each other's eyes.

Lao Bao's heart was beating a little hard at the moment, and he took out the lifelong knowledge he had learned in the Qin Mansion, trying to make what he said sound more powerful:

"I, Bao Zheng, was born in the second year of Guangxu, and I have been working hard in Qinfu since I was a child, and I have been working hard for more than 50 years."

"The Qin family and Master Qin have treated me very well over the years, and this kindness should be remembered by Bao Zheng."

"But, my son, Bao Guowei, was born in the first year of the Republic of China, has reached the age of 16 and is now studying in a provincial middle school."

According to the calculation method of the age of the Republic of China, Bao Guowei has indeed reached the age of sixteen, and if it is calculated according to the imaginary age, he can even add another year.

"In the new school middle school, there are few sons of subordinates, and I can't teach Guowei to be difficult in the school."

Worried about Master Qin's face and not wanting to offend him, Lao Bao still didn't say his true feelings, but found a very legitimate reason for his resignation.

"So, today...... I would like to resign. ”

Saying this sentence that he had dreamed of saying for decades, Lao Bao Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

From today onwards, Lao Bao has completely broken free from the shackles of "subordinate", and Bao Guowei is no longer the son of subordinate.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

After hearing this, Master Qin suddenly stood up from the mahogany chair, he didn't even look at Bao Guowei this time, and his mood seemed to be very excited.

There was a kind smile on his big square face, and his whole face was crumpled with fat.

"Bao Zheng, I have known that I have been powerful since I was a child, but I didn't expect your son to be even more powerful, okay! Good! Good! I'm ready! ”

For Lao Bao, Master Qin is not completely emotionless, otherwise he would not give him more than double the salary of the rest of the subordinates.

When he was a child, Master Qin admired Bao Zheng as the child king.

When he was young, Master Qin despised and even despised Bao Zheng as a subordinate.

When people reached middle age, Master Qin began to feel sad for some lonely Bao Zheng.

Now, Bao Zheng, who is about to enter old age, has finally submitted his resignation to himself, and Master Qin actually feels that he is in a very good mood - it seems that the child king has returned when he was a child.

Ten years! Decade! Bao Guowei's promise after ten years has finally been truly realized at this moment.

Looking at the departing figure of the father and son, Master Qin habitually squinted.

Master Qin may be very precious to his children, and he won't even let his wife say a word about his shortcomings, but once it comes to the development and growth of the family, he will not consider any needs of his children.

Since the direct relationship between the Bao family and the Qin family has been cut off, Master Qin can't help but have a crooked idea in his heart.

……

"Squeak!"

Master Qin found his daughter Qin Qin in the West Wing.

She was putting on makeup on the dresser at this time, and Master Qin was standing behind her and looking at her in the mirror.

I have to say that he does look a little good-looking, with slightly narrow Danfeng eyes, a straight and beautiful nose, and red lips with lipstick.

After putting on makeup, Qin Qin's appearance was a little amazing.

There are really no disadvantages other than swearing.

"Daddy? What are you here to do? ”

Seeing that Master Qin had been looking at himself, Qin Qin's hand kept moving, but he had some doubts in his heart.

"Qin'er, Bao Guowei, what do you think?"

Hearing Master Qin's tone, Qin Qin's hand froze.
