sister in law?
Jiang Rou's brain was a little short-circuited for a moment. How could the brother Zhou Sen she had just found have such a relationship with Bai Yulan, the most beautiful outsider and the owner of Ningxiang Pavilion?
This is simply shocking to the world.
Bai Yulan was also confused. Xiao Xiangning, the new stage star, actually knew Zhou Sen?
Isn't Zhou se an orphan adopted by the Belarusian wealthy businessman Anthony? Why is there an extra sister here? These two people seem to be incompatible with each other.
"Yu Lan, before I was adopted by Anthony's father, Xiaorou and I were both sold to the theater troupe. I am two years older than her. We had a good relationship in the theater troupe. She always called me brother. We also just met each other recently. We met, we just recognized each other." Zhou Sen covered his mouth and coughed, explaining to Bai Yulan.
With this explanation, Bai Yulan understood that they were not biological siblings, but a pair of miserable children who had lived together since childhood.
"Xiaorou, please call me sister-in-law..." Zhou Sen was also happy for a while. If he hadn't recognized Jiang Rou in advance, today's meeting would have been awkward.
Jiang Rou has not yet recovered from the relationship between Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan, and she suddenly has such an extra "sister-in-law".
For a moment, he was actually a little stunned on the spot.
Bai Yulan also blushed and her cheeks were hot. She had seen the embarrassing scene where Zhou Sen sucked blood from her finger just now.
It seems a bit guilty to deny her relationship with Zhou Sen now. This man really knows how to pick his time.
"Xiaorou, is this Mr. Xiao Xiangning's real name?" Bai Yulan said generously after seeing the scene.
"I dare not call you sir. Sister-in-law, just like brother Xiaomori, call me Jiang Rou." Jiang Rou finally shouted out.
"Okay, actually your brother Zhou Sen and I haven't reached that stage yet. Xiaorou should be younger than me, so just call me Sister Lan." Bai Yulan laughed and greeted, "Come on, come on, please sit."
"Yes, Xiaorou, we are all a family. Be more casual and don't have to be formal." Zhou Sen didn't refute. As long as Bai Yulan doesn't object fiercely, this is progress.
"That Yu Lan, do you have a medicine box here? Let me treat your wounds..." Zhou Sen smiled flatteringly.
"No need, it's just a small needle point, there's no bleeding anymore." Bai Yulan lowered her head slightly and coughed, this man didn't know how to open or lift any pot.
"Okay, let's talk. I'll go to the kitchen to see what's for lunch today?" Zhou Sen knew that if he stayed any longer, not only would he be embarrassed, but Bai Yulan and Jiang Rou would be embarrassed as well. They might as well find excuses to avoid it, which would be counterproductive. It can eliminate this embarrassing atmosphere.
"Axiang, Axiang, let's go and help me..." Seeing that Axiang was still in the room stupidly, Zhou Sen shouted.
"Okay, okay, Brother Sen, I'll come right away."
"Go and wake Wu En up and ask him to crack firewood. He won't be patrolling the streets anymore, and he won't be able to sleep in."
Correct
"Brother Wu En has woken up a long time ago..."
"Really? Why didn't I know? This guy doesn't regard me as his commander anymore." Zhou Sen snorted.
"Brother Sen, what should we have for lunch?" As soon as he entered the kitchen, Axiang was beaming with excitement.
"Didn't we make tofu? Home-style tofu, then a tofu soup, and cut a piece of good tenderloin. Let's make another pot of pork, then a braised beef brisket with potatoes, and then a braised fish fillet. How many? Got a dish?"
"Five!" Axiang replied.
"One more, make it a smooth one!" Zhou Sen thought for a moment, "Let's add another hot and sour braised dried shredded rice."
"Okay!"
…
"Sister Xiaorou, I didn't expect that we are so destined. We will have to move around more often from now on." Bai Yulan naturally has a natural affinity, especially for women. Her dignified and steady temperament is completely in line with her. The women of Xiaojiabiyu are incomparable.
Jiang Rou has also seen the world. Although she was a little cautious at first, she soon relaxed. Although she was surprised by the relationship between Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan, it didn't seem to have any impact on her.
She went to Zhou Sen. In the past, she simply wanted to find her childhood playmate and had no special thoughts. But now, although the purpose is not so simple.
But she wasn't doing it for herself either.
And the relationship between Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan might give her more convenience.
"Yes, Sister Lan, I just met Brother Xiaomori. I didn't expect that he is doing well now, and he has a girlfriend like you, Sister Lan. I'm really happy for him." Jiang Rou smiled.
"My relationship with Zhou Sen is rather complicated to talk about. I will tell you slowly when I have the opportunity in the future." Bai Yulan chuckled, "I am a person who likes to sing, but it is just for my own entertainment. Like my sister. It’s far behind compared to famous people.”
"If you like it, Sister Lan, you can come to the troupe anytime, or I can come over. Anyway, I don't have many friends in Bingcheng?" Jiang Rou said.
"Okay, then from now on, we will move around frequently, walking around?" Bai Yulan said happily.
"What kind of music does Sister Lan usually like?"
"I usually listen to Peking Opera more. I like Mr. Mei Lanfang's "The Drunken Concubine" and "Universal Frontier", as well as Huangmei Opera..."
"I also like Huangmei Opera, but now I mainly sing Ping Opera..."
"Sister Lan likes "The Match"?"
"What a coincidence..."
…
"Axiang, please send them a fruit plate and inquire about the situation." Zhou Sen handed a cut fruit plate to Axiang and ordered.
"Brother Sen, is this sister Xiao Xiangning really sold to the troupe with you in the past?" Axiang asked.
"Well, I was sold first, and she came later. At that time, I was as skinny as skin and bones. The troupe was very cruel to us children. Not only did we not have enough to eat, but we were also beaten if we were lazy in practice. "Xiaorou was originally thin and malnourished, so she couldn't keep up with her practice. At that time, I always secretly left food for her..." Zhou Sen's original memory is still very clear about this past event. It was two years ago. It was most unforgettable for two weak creatures to get along with each other for warmth and support in that kind of environment.
Axiang's eyes were a little red after hearing this.
In fact, her fate was quite miserable. If she hadn't met Bai Yulan, she would have been sold to the land of romance and lived a dazzling life.
Feel the same.
"Why am I telling you this? Help me put this potato into blocks, soak it in water, and stew the beef brisket for a while." Zhou Sen put away the memory.
…
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat..."
When the plates of delicious, delicious and delicious dishes were brought to the table, Jiang Rou was the most shocked. However, more than ten years have passed.
Whatever happened to Zhou Sen was understandable.
"Where's Unn?"
"He's shy. He's hiding in the kitchen to eat alone. Don't worry, he's indispensable." Zhou Sen explained. Bai Yulan was able to ask Wu En, which made him feel relieved. He had never looked down on Wu En because of his origin. he.
Since everyone is equal, eating should not be divided between each other.
But if Wu En himself doesn't want to, he can't force it. After all, many people haven't changed their concepts yet.
There are six dishes on the table, three of which are related to tofu.
It’s not a bad tofu feast.
Tofu really tastes bad, especially this homemade tofu. The three women ate it without stopping.
Of course, braised fish fillets and pot-wrapped pork are also delicious. Pot-wrapped pork is an authentic Northeastern famous dish that almost every household can make. However, Zhou Sen’s pot-wrapped pork dish has a unique taste thanks to the addition of perilla leaves.
After lunch, Jiang Rou stayed for a short while, then said goodbye and left. The troupe had a lot of things to do, so she could stay in Ningxiang Pavilion for half a day because of Zhou Sen's sake. If it was just a return visit, the most she could do was sit for a while and drink. A cup of tea and left.
"It's been fifteen years, childhood sweethearts, and we can meet again. What a great fate!" Bai Yulan sent Jiang Rou away personally. When she came back, she saw Zhou Sen half lying on the sofa and asked with a smile.
"It's sour, so sour. Do you still feel like you're in crisis?"
"I'm so jealous because I'm afraid you and she will misunderstand our relationship." Bai Yulan looked at Zhou Sen and said seriously, "You two are childhood sweethearts."
"What a misunderstanding, it's just that, let alone she was eight years old and I was ten years old at that time. Besides, fifteen years have passed. Even if we meet again now, the relationship between the two of us is at best that of brother and sister. Whoever stipulates that we must Want to become lovers?" Zhou Sen retorted.
"Aren't all the stories in the play just telling?" The corners of Bai Yulan's mouth turned up slightly. It was obvious that she was happy with this answer in her heart.
"You also told the story in the play, can it be taken seriously?" Zhou Sen said, "Furthermore, am I qualified to provoke others?"
"Listen, you still have this intention, right? Xiaorou is so beautiful, what man wouldn't want to kiss her when he sees her?" Bai Yulan said.
"Everyone has a love for beauty, but do we have to own beautiful things?" Zhou Sen said, "Besides, maybe someone has already fallen in love with her?"
"That's right. With your current virtue, people may not think highly of you."
"Yes, as long as you like him, okay, female Bodhisattva, you can accept this poor monk.
Zhou Sen stood up and said.
"I haven't been able to show up all day long. Let me ask you, have you encountered any difficulties?" Bai Yulan asked solemnly when she saw Zhou Sen was about to leave.
"It has nothing to do with you." Zhou Sen put on his coat and walked directly out. He didn't want Bai Yulan to get involved.
"What, do you want me to be a widow again?" Bai Yulan asked, looking at Zhou Sen's leaving figure.
Zhou Sen was startled for a moment, then turned around and glanced at Bai Yulan: "There are some things, it's best that you don't know."
"It is said that Lao Ma died of a sudden illness. In fact, I know that he was unwilling to cooperate with the Japanese, became a traitor, and was secretly poisoned by the Japanese." Bai Yulan said slowly.
Zhou Sen was shocked and looked at this woman with some surprise. I am afraid she has never told this secret to anyone in these years.
But she actually said it in front of her, which shows that she cares about this very much.
"Don't worry, although I don't know who my parents are or where my home is, the blood in my body is Chinese, and I will not be a traitor." Zhou Sen looked at Bai Yulan and said solemnly.
He was afraid that he couldn't help it, so he turned and left after speaking.
Looking at Zhou Sen's leaving figure, Bai Yulan's eyes were a little complicated. Will the man she chose, or God arranged for her, keep his promise?
