413 "Did I just mock Master Chen?"
"Um."
"I just…"
"Yes, you did it all."
The diners around all nodded. One of them patted him on the shoulder and said, "If it was Nan Batian just now, your head would have exploded! It's only because Master Chen is so magnanimous!"
After hearing this, the diner sat down with a plop, looking as if he had lost his soul.
At this time, the wonton stand owner came over and put down a bowl of wontons and said, "Okay, you didn't say anything bad about Master Chen, it's okay, Master Chen is not like Nan Batian, he is very friendly to people, this Mianshui County is ruled by him, we are blessed."
At this time, the customer reacted and asked, "Boss, how do you know Mr. Chen?"
After hearing this, people around looked over curiously. How could this ordinary wonton stall owner know Mr. Chen?
The wonton stall owner straightened up and pointed to a house not far away and said, "See? When Master Chen first came to Mianshui, he lived in our big vegetable market, in that house."
Everyone understood instantly after hearing this.
…
"Lao Yang's wontons are getting better and better."
Chen Jie picked his teeth while riding on his horse. Xiaohu said, "Well, the meat fillings given this time are bigger than before."
Chen Jie said: "Let's go and eat. They always pack us meat. Oh, you pay..."
"Don't worry, Brother Jiu Si, I gave you money for an extra bowl."
Xiaohu said, and Chen Jie said after hearing it: "Well, don't let him lose money."
Xiaohu said, "Brother Jiusi, we can't always go there to eat wontons from now on."
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Well, yes, otherwise it will affect other people's business."
"I'm not talking about this. Brother Jiu Si, you're going to be the gang leader soon. If you always eat outside and people find out, it's easy for them to poison you, which makes it hard for us to protect you."
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "I understand. I won't go there anymore."
A change in identity will make a person lose his former happiness. For example, after Chen Jie became the gang leader, he could no longer eat at roadside stalls at will.
The group quickly returned to White Tiger Hall.
The two of them rode to the door and saw a head sticking out from the top of the wall. When they saw it was Chen Jie, they immediately said excitedly: "Master Chen is back, Master Chen is back."
After hearing this, the door opened quickly and Si Xi came out.
Looking at the bloodshot in Si Xi's eyes, Chen Jie knew that he didn't sleep well that night.
Chen Jie patted Si Xi's shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The alert has been lifted. Let's all rest. Rest now. You should also go back and have a good sleep."
After hearing this, Si Xi said, "Yes, the fishing gang..."
Chen Jie said, "Nan Batian has escaped. I have taken over the headquarters of the Fishermen's Gang. Oh, and a batch of precious medicinal herbs and martial arts secrets will be shipped back soon. Please help take them and store the medicinal herbs in the warehouse and the martial arts secrets in the library."
"Okay, I'll watch it myself."
"No, just send someone to pick it up."
Chen Jiedao.
Si Xi said, "No, I don't trust others to handle this. Hall Master, you should go and have a rest. The next things will be enough for you to do."
Chen Jie nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Make sure you get some rest."
"yes."
Chen Jie entered the yard and soon arrived at the inner courtyard.
At this time, the maids in the inner courtyard had all gotten up. Yin Hongmei came out of the room carrying a basin of water. She saw Chen Jie and bowed in surprise, saying, "Master, you're back!"
Chen Jie glanced at her and asked, "Where's the Madam?"
Yin Hongmei said: "I stayed in the house and didn't sleep all night."
Chen Jie nodded slightly and said, "Well, you go ahead and do your work. Let the kitchen prepare some warm food."
"yes."
At this time, Chen Jie slowly walked to Su Yunjin's door and pushed it open.
Su Yunjin was sitting in front of the dressing table with her back to the door. When she heard the noise behind her, she thought it was Yin Hongmei coming back from fetching water, so she said, "Hongmei, bring me the comb."
After hearing this, Chen Jie saw a wooden comb on the table.
He picked up the wooden comb, gently came behind Su Yunjin, reached out to touch Su Yunjin's hair, and gently combed her hair.
Su Yunjin said: "Hongmei, my hair at the back is a little messy, please help me comb it straight, so my husband doesn't see it when he comes back..."
Chen Jie smiled and continued to comb her hair. Su Yunjin was stunned and turned back. Chen Jie held her shoulders and said, "Don't move!"
"Ah, husband, you're back!"
There was surprise in Su Yunjin's voice. She had been worried all night and had not slept well.
Chen Jie said: "Well, I'm back."
"Are all resolved?"
Su Yunjin asked after a moment of hesitation.
Chen Jie said: "Well, it's solved."
"Husband, please don't comb my hair. If someone sees you, they will laugh at you. Let Hongmei do it."
Su Yunjin said.
Chen Jie said: "My wife has been worried about me all night, so what's wrong with me combing her hair? If anyone dares to laugh at me, I will break his legs!"
Su Yunjin said: "Husband, you..."
"Okay, okay, sit down. Your hair is messy. Let me comb it for you."
Chen Jie was combing his wife's hair with a comb. His wife was looking behind her through the bronze mirror, her eyes full of happiness.
Finally, her hair was combed. Just as Su Yunjin was about to stand up, she suddenly saw Chen Jie take out a beautiful gold-inlaid jade hairpin and inserted it into her bun.
It immediately made the lady look more dignified and beautiful.
Su Yunjin was stunned and asked, "Where did you get the hairpin, my husband?"
"Does it look good?"
Chen Jie asked.
Su Yunjin smiled and said, "It looks good."
"Do you like it?"
Su Yunjin put her hand on her shoulder, touched Chen Jie's hand and said happily, "I like everything my husband gives me."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie immediately picked up Su Yunjin by the waist. His wife was shocked: "Husband...child..."
Chen Jie carried Su Yunjin to the bed, gently put her down, looked at her nervous wife and said, "I heard someone said she didn't sleep all night, so have a good sleep."
The lady heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. She was really afraid that Chen Jie would make a request, and she was afraid that she would not be able to refuse and hurt the child...
"Close your eyes, I'll watch you sleep here."
Chen Jie held his wife's hand, and she gently closed her eyes and soon fell asleep peacefully.
Seeing that his wife had fallen asleep, Chen Jie covered her with a quilt and got up.
At this time, there were footsteps outside. Xiaohu was about to knock on the door when Chen Jie came out and asked, "What's wrong?"
"The Yelu Mansion has sent someone to invite you to come over to discuss matters!"
Chen Jie's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this: "As expected, he is here..."
Chapter 194 Zhao Ya: I Testify for Chen Jiusi
Yelu Mansion.
At this time, more than 500 black cavalry guards were standing in neat rows outside the Yelu Mansion, making the entire mansion look solemn and murderous.
Outside the mansion there were carriages and horses, and the entire Yelu Mansion looked quite solemn.
The reason is very simple. Yesterday, Nan Batian was chased and fled from Mianshui City. Now the entire Mianshui City is in chaos, and countless forces are waiting for a major reshuffle of Mianshui.
Early this morning, Yelu summoned all these people to the Yelu Mansion for a meeting.
Because today's meeting involves the future division of interests in Mianshui County.
…
"Chen Jiusi from the White Tiger Hall has arrived!"
As soon as Chen Jie and Xiao Hu arrived at Yelu Mansion, Ahetai immediately came with people to greet them, and then seized the horses and entourage, and let Chen Jie and Xiao Hu into Yelu Mansion.
Seeing such seriousness, Xiaohu came over and said to Ahetai: "Brother, what's going on?"
Xiaohu and Ahetai are friends, and he used Ahetai's connections when he framed Nan Batian last time.
After hearing what Xiaohu said, Ahedai said, "Brother Hu, you better be careful today. My master has invited all the Thirteen Guardians of Mianshui County!"
After hearing this, Xiao Hu asked, "Have all the Thirteen Guardians been invited?"
Ahedai said: "Master Chen wants to be the leader of the Mianshui Cao Gang, but he must be recognized by these Thirteen Guardians. If they don't recognize him, I'm afraid a war is inevitable!"
That's right. The leader of the fishing gang is from Mianshui. If you want to become the leader of this fishing gang, but you can't conquer other masters of Huajin in Mianshui, how can you convince others?
Therefore, if you want to establish yourself in Mianshui, you must gain recognition from all the people of Mianshui.
"So brother, be careful. I can't help you in this situation today."
Ahhetai spoke up. After hearing this, Xiaohu clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, brother. Here, this is one hundred taels of silver. It's money for my brother's tea."
"Hey, Brother Hu, you..."
"Keep it."
