above the point of the knife

Chapter 78 Tickets
"Ah Xiang, Brother Sen will teach you how to make braised pork with dried plums and vegetables today. I'm a quick way to do it. There's no other way. Don't we want to eat it tonight..."

"Brother Sen, did someone tell you that a man who can cook is really handsome." Ah Xiang said with her chin propped up, her eyes shining brightly, with admiration.

"Don't look at me like that. If you look too much, you won't be able to catch your eyes. Then, you'll be asking for trouble." Zhou Sen was joking with the little girl A Xiang while cutting the pork belly quickly.

"Hmph, you think I'm stupid!" The little girl raised her mouth and snorted, "I'll go and see Brother Wu En."

Zhou Sen chuckled.

Wu En, a big fool, almost obeyed A Xiang's words, he was probably sold out, and even helped A Xiang with some money.

This guy is pushing a mill next door, grinding soybean milk and making tofu.

Being used as a donkey by others, I still enjoy it.

Forget it, it’s good to let this guy vent a lot of energy. If you don’t use your energy, it’s a waste. If you eat so much, why don’t you work?
In addition to cooking, Zhou Sen also tried to make some pastries. He does have a lot of pastry recipes in his mind. It was difficult to practice once before, but now, there is no shortage of time.

"You are a dignified policeman, and you actually nest here as a small cook. Are you afraid that your boss will find out and punish you for not doing your job properly?" Bai Yulan appeared at the kitchen door, looking at the busy Zhou Sen and asked.

"I'm off today, I don't go to work, he can't control me." Zhou Sen smiled, picked up a piece of steamed glutinous rice cake, and handed it to Bai Yulan's mouth, "Yulan, try the glutinous rice rose cake I made .”

Bai Yulan hesitated for a moment, but opened her mouth to take a bite.

A soft, glutinous and sweet taste directly entered her mouth. She had eaten a lot of good things, and this rose cake made by Zhou Sen was really the first time.

Seeing the relaxed expression on Bai Yulan's face, Zhou Sen knew that his rose cake was well made, and said happily, "How is it?"

"It's okay." Bai Yulan said reservedly.

"It's okay, it's good if it's delicious, and it's not good if it's not good."

"So-so, not bad." As he said, the remaining half of Zhou Sen's hand had already been stuffed into her mouth.

"You want to choke me!"

"Hehe, I can't bear it."

"Is there any more, I'll show it to others for you to taste and comment on?" After eating, Bai Yulan gave him a blank look and said.

"There's a lot there, remember to give me a review after eating." Zhou Sen pointed to the steamer in the kitchen and said, "I want to improve."

Bai Yulan took a food box, took some of Zhou Sen's various pastries, and took them out.

There are more than a dozen women living in the Ningxiang Pavilion. If there are good things, they must be shared.

These are a lot of sandstorms, and finally stayed, shared weal and woe with her, and never left her. Naturally, they were different from those who left and were short-sighted.

……

In the north courtyard.

"Sister Lan, it is said that you are with that policeman, is this true?" Cao Wan'er, who has always been outspoken, asked.

Bai Yulan said: "Not yet, don't think about it."

The relationship between her and Zhou Sen is more complicated. Even if they are really together, they can't announce it to the public, even people around them can't say it.

Some things, eat a ditch, gain a wisdom.

"Then Sister Lan is probably also moved. We have never seen Sister Lan treat a man so well, freely entering and leaving the courtyard where Sister Lan lives. Sisters, don't you think so?"

"That's enough, that's enough, such delicious cakes can't stop your mouths." Bai Yulan coughed, "Since you sisters are staying, you don't want to live the life of looking at people's faces and making excuses for laughing. We have to have a business to support ourselves, I thought about it, let’s open a tea house, we will be responsible for the tea, and he will be responsible for the pastries and snacks eaten by the tea guests..."

"Which one is he, oh..." The girls started booing with expressions of "understanding".

"I'm serious, do you think these cakes are delicious? If they really become the signature cakes of our teahouse, will there be any business?" Bai Yulan knew what they meant by booing.

"Sister Lan, this is indeed a good idea. Our Ningxiang Restaurant is originally a place for business. With a little modification, we can create a teahouse. There is a lot of traffic here, so we don't have to worry about no customers!" Cao Wan'er said.

"Wan'er is right. Although we have some savings, we can't just sit and eat. If we can make a living, we will have something to rely on in the future."

"Yes, it's good to open a tea house, and it doesn't have to be too hard..."

"I can also play the piano, which can add to the fun!"

"I know a little tea ceremony..."

All the girls were chattering, and basically agreed with Bai Yulan's idea. As for the restaurant, Bai Yulan didn't mention it, and things had to be done step by step.

"Since everyone agrees to open a teahouse, then we have decided so. If you have any suggestions or ideas, you can put them forward."

……

"I have two theater tickets here. Would you like to take Axiang to see them this afternoon?" During lunch, Bai Yulan took out two theater tickets and put them in front of Zhou Sen and said.

"Where did you come from, why don't you go?"

"It's a gift from a friend. I'm inconvenient. Besides, if I go, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble." Bai Yulan explained.

"Aren't there all VIP boxes in theaters?"

"This new one is popular, and she might become a celebrity in the future. It's hard to get her tickets now, so I asked someone to buy them." Bai Yulan said.

"I prefer modern dramas. I can't enjoy this kind of traditional operas." Zhou Sen instinctively refused when he saw that the theater tickets were printed with "New Stage".

"This is a public ticket, you can't let me go with Axiang, how uncomfortable is that?" Bai Yulan frowned slightly.

It was hard to find, and she actually wanted to go and have a look. The problem was, all the VIP tickets for the boxes were sold out, and they only got two public tickets.

"Otherwise, let me ask for you. The owner of the theater usually reserves some good seats for this kind of popular theater tickets, just in case." Zhou Sen chuckled.

"Who can you find?"

"Lend me the phone?"

"In the study..." Bai Yulan made an exception and nodded.

……

Zhou Sen walked into Bai Yulan's study room, sat down, picked up the phone, and dialed a number, but there was a voice on the other end who was still asleep.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Second Master Qin, do you still remember me?" Zhou Sen chuckled.

There was a grumpy voice on the phone: "Why is it you again, Zhou, what do you want to do?"

"Second Master Qin, it's noon, don't be so angry, I have something to do with you." Zhou Sen said, moving the receiver a little away.

"roll!"

After a growl, Qin Lang hung up the phone.

Zhou Sen was stunned for a moment, Qin Lang was so angry, he must have woken him up by calling himself, so he dialed the phone again.

"Hey, which one is it?"

"It's still me, Second Young Master Qin, if you hang up again, I will announce our relationship to the public!" Zhou Sen threatened.

"The surnamed Zhou, you are cruel, what do you want?" Qin Lang cursed, and wanted to let Qin Laoqi and the boss know that all his news was related to Zhou Sen, and he would definitely not be able to eat it.

"Two tickets for Xiao Xiangning's movie, VIP box, this afternoon."

"Why don't you die, if I get you a ticket, won't the whole world know my relationship with you?" Qin Lang cursed.

"With the ability of Second Young Master Qin, it's not difficult to keep others from knowing, right?" Zhou Sen chuckled.

"You..." Qin Lang was so angry that he wanted to drop the phone, he regretted it very much now, why was he obsessed with ghosts back then, and promised that woman Jin Suying to detain Zhou Sen's subordinate Ye San'er?
Now this guy is blackmailing himself.

"In Qin Qiye's heart, your eldest brother is still the first heir to the Qin family's great cause, and you can only live in the shadow of your eldest brother forever, not to mention he has a good husband, so you can't compare of……"

"Okay, just two tickets for the VIP box, I'll help you get it." Qin Lang is not stupid. This conflict between Su Wenqing and the Qin family was obviously calculated by someone, and this person is Zhou Sen. Just an executor, and by no means a weak character.

He has seen it before. Is such a person really cowardly and cowardly who dares to come to him alone?

"Thanks, I will make up for the ticket money, and I won't take advantage of you."

"No need!" After finishing speaking, Qin Lang angrily hung up the phone again.

……

"You can give these two tickets away." Zhou Sen came back and directly pushed the two public theater tickets on the table to Bai Yulan.

"You really got the VIP ticket for the box?" Bai Yulan was taken aback.

"Of course." Zhou Sen said, "Hurry up and eat. After eating, I'll take you to pick up your tickets and send you to the theater by the way."

"Otherwise, for these two tickets, you go with Wu En, and after this show is over, you can also come back with us?" Bai Yulan suggested.

To be honest, Zhou Sen is really a little moved. After all, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Yuanshen still misses him very much. He can't meet and doesn't want to bother him. But I thought about it.

"Okay." Zhou Sen agreed.

……

In front of the old benevolence and justice hall, Zhou Sen saw Qin Lang who came to deliver the tickets. This guy was afraid that people would recognize him, so he deliberately changed into a dog-skin jacket and lantern cotton trousers, which looked like he was driving a cart.

"My surname is Zhou, are you cheating on me?" Qin Lang has a good face towards Zhou Senneng.

"Second Master Qin, the enemy of this enemy is a friend. We don't have deep hatred, and our interests are still the same. If I win, it will not do you any harm. On the contrary, if your elder brother wins, it will be hard for you. "Zhou Sen reminded.

"But I always feel that getting involved with you is not a good thing." Qin Lang snorted.

"That depends on what you think. Su Wenqing wants to replace your old man as the chairman of the General Chamber of Commerce. What if you can help him stabilize?"

"You, you have a way..." Qin Lang was startled.

"The chairman of the general chamber of commerce, you and I have the final say, only the Japanese have the final say, the Japanese let a dog be the chairman of the general chamber of commerce, who would dare to object?" Zhou Sen said with a chuckle.

Qin Lang's eyes froze, yes, the Japanese have the final say in this big Manchukuo, not to mention the president of a small ice city general chamber of commerce?

This kid Zhou Sen is a policeman. It is said that he has a good relationship with the Japanese, so maybe he can really help.

"Brother Sen, how offended you were just now..."
