163　　"Um?"

　　Hua Sanniang looked at Chen Jie and said, "It's like something."

　　"Oh, nothing, just a big brother I met in town."

　　"Xiantao Town?"

　　Chen Jie nodded.

　　Hua Sanniang asked, "What's your eldest brother's name?"

　　Chen Jie's face changed and he said, "Nothing special, just a farmer."

　　Chen was explaining, and then inadvertently, a black pendant fell from his sleeve. The pendant was made of ordinary black stone, very ordinary, and didn't look valuable.

　　But the moment the pendant fell out.

　　Hua Sanniang's expression suddenly changed and she looked at Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie quickly put the pendant away, as if he had dropped it accidentally and didn't want anyone to see it.

　　This technique was very crude. Under normal circumstances, Hua Sanniang would have seen through it at a glance. However, when she saw the pendant, her brain was not enough and there was only that man in her mind.

　　Chen Jie put the pendant away. This pendant was given to him by Ni Wenjun.

　　When he put on Ni Wenjun's human skin mask and went to feed the princess, Ni Wenjun was afraid that Chen Jie did not look like her, so he not only gave him the human skin mask, but also a small pendant. When they parted later, Ni Wenjun did not ask for it back, but just said to keep it as a reminder.

　　Chen Jie kept it with him like this as a reminder.

　　Today the system said that Hua Sanniang likes Ni Wenjun, so maybe she knows something about his personal belongings. Once she knows about this thing, Chen Jie can save a lot of trouble and can easily gain Hua Sanniang's trust.

　　And he was right. Hua Sanniang really recognized this pendant.

　　"Can you show me your pendant?"

　　Chen Jie hesitated for a long time. At this time, Su Yunjin on the side understood Chen Jie's thoughts and replied: "Husband, Sister Hua is very good to us, just show it to Sister Hua."

　　"Okay, all right."

　　Chen Jie handed the pendant over and Hua Sanniang looked at it carefully. Yes, it was his.

　　He said that this pendant was carved by his father for him and his younger brother to play with when they were children. He got one each and he always wore it. The carving was ugly. It was said that it was a tiger, but it looked more like a mouse.

　　But Ni Wenjun always brought it with him.

　　And now how did it fall into his hands?

　　Hua Sanniang's eyes narrowed slightly, and in an instant a terrifying chill pierced Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie felt as if he was being stared at by some terrifying monster. He had only experienced this terrifying feeling from his adoptive father.

　　Is it Hua Jin?

　　This Hua Sanniang is a master of Hua Jin? !!

　　At this moment it was Chen Jie's turn to be shocked. He guessed that Hua Sanniang was not simple, but he didn't expect her to be so extraordinary. You know, in Mianshui County, the masters of Hua Jin are all at the level of the Thirteen Guardians.

　　Is this third lady one of the Thirteen Protectors or one of the Thirteen Protectors outside of them?

　　Chen Jie was thinking in his mind.

　　Hua Sanniang asked in a cold voice: "Where did you get this thing from?"

　　"A friend gave it to me."

　　"Friend, your friend's surname is Ni?"

　　"No, my surname is not Ni, my surname is Zhang, and my name is Big Zhang."

　　Chen Jie made up a story.

　　Hua Sanniang frowned and said, "Big Zhang, okay, since you don't want to tell me the truth, then..."

　　Hua Sanniang said this and reached out to grab Su Yunjin.

　　Chen Jie was startled and quickly slapped over to save Su Yunjin.

　　However, he was shocked by the protective energy from Hua Sanniang and took three steps back.

　　Transformation of strength!

　　That's right, this is the protective energy that only masters of Hua Jin have!

　　At this time, Hua Sanniang grabbed Su Yunjin's shoulders and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Chen Jiusi, tell me where you got this thing, or I will give your wife to Feng San!"

　　"No, no, Third Lady, we have no grudges against each other, why do you have to hurt me like this?"

　　Hua Sanniang said: "Answer my question, where did you get this thing?"

　　"I told you, someone else gave it to me."

　　"Is the person who gave it to you surnamed Ni?"

　　Hua Sanniang looked at Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Yes, that's right."

　　Hua Sanniang asked, "What is your relationship? How could he give you something so important?"

　　Chen Jie hesitated for a moment and said, "I said, can you let my wife go? Even if you send me to see the official, please don't involve my wife, okay? She knows nothing."

　　"Husband."

　　Su Yunjin shouted, and the two of them looked at each other.

　　All of this was within the plan of Chen Jie and Su Yunjin. When Chen Jie was planning this recognition, he had predicted Hua Sanniang's various reactions, including this one.

　　Therefore, he discussed the matter with his wife in advance and did not seem nervous.

　　Hua Sanniang frowned slightly and said, "Don't worry, Yunjin and I are sisters. Just tell me the truth and I will make sure she's fine."

　　Seeing this, Chen Jie said, "In fact, Ni Wenjun is my elder brother. At the beginning..."

　　Chen Jie told the story of how he met Ni Wenjun and saved Ni Wenjun's life, and how Ni Wenjun became sworn brothers with him.

　　Hua Sanniang slowly let go of Su Yunjin's shoulders.

　　He sat down slowly and said, "It turned out to be so dangerous. This matter is really thanks to you, Jiusi."

　　As she said this, Hua Sanniang stood up and bowed to Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie was startled: "Third lady, what are you doing?"

　　Su Yunjin also quickly helped Hua Sanniang up and said, "Sister Hua, what are you doing?"

　　Madam Hua said, "You don't have to stop me. I bow to you sincerely to thank Jiu Si for saving my Wen Jun."

　　Um?!!

　　Even though Chen Jie knew that Hua Sanniang liked Ni Wenjun, he was still shocked. Was she calling her so affectionately?

　　Thinking of this, Chen Jie pretended to be surprised and asked, "Madam San knows my eldest brother?"

　　Hua Sanniang nodded and said naturally: "Of course I know him, or rather, I like your elder brother."

　　Chen Jie immediately bowed respectfully to Hua Sanniang and said, "So, you are my sister-in-law. I was disrespectful just now. Please forgive me!"

　　Chen Jie's words "sister-in-law" made Hua Sanniang very happy!

　　She was the only one who knew the details of the relationship between her and Ni Wenjun. He liked Ni Wenjun, but that bastard Ni Wenjun ran away without expressing his feelings, and then disappeared without a trace.

　　But her heart is completely on Ni Wenjun!

　　At this time, Chen Jie's call of "sister-in-law" really touched Hua Sanniang's heart. This call of "sister-in-law" made her happier than giving her ten thousand taels of silver.

　　"It doesn't matter whether you forgive or not. We are all brothers."

　　"Since you are Wenjun's brother, you will be my brother, Hua Sanniang, from now on. I will protect you in Mianshui County from now on!"

　　"Hey, thank you, sister-in-law!"

　　Chen Jie quickly bowed, and then gave Su Yunjin a look. The lady was so smart that she immediately bowed and said, "Yunjin greets sister-in-law."

　　"Sister-in-law, Ruirui has also met sister-in-law."

　　"Haha, you little guy!"

　　Hua Sanniang was extremely happy at this time. Ni Wenjun's brothers all recognized me as their sister-in-law. Aren't you, Ni Wenjun, always loyal and righteous?

　　By then, you brothers will be mine, and I'll see how you can refuse me.

　　How can I let the man I like run away?

　　Hua Sanniang was so happy that she said to the back: "Two people come here to breathe, bring all the delicious food and drinks to me. Didn't you see that my brother and sister-in-law are here?"

　　After hearing this, the guy behind rushed in immediately.

　　Then good wine and delicious food were served.

　　Then Hua Sanniang pointed at Chen Jie and said, "Remember, when you see my brother in the future, call him Second Master, okay?"

　　"Yes, Boss."

　　Erye, why are you called Erye?

　　Ni Wenjun is the eldest, the uncle, and Chen Jie is naturally the second. What's wrong with calling him the second uncle?

　　Seeing this, Chen Jie couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, this is inappropriate."

　　"Sit down and call me sister-in-law. I will help you if I can. Your elder brother is on the run and you have no one to take care of you, but I am here, so don't worry. No one will bully you."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie immediately said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

　　"But sister-in-law, there's no need to do too much. We just need to hide here until tomorrow."

　　"Hide, what are you hiding from?"

　　"Who the hell is Feng San? Is he worthy of my brother to hide from him? It's okay. I have my sister-in-law. Just eat and drink what you want."

　　Hua Sanniang said.

　　At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, followed by a long dragon of torches.

　　Then a group of people rushed directly to the window. When they looked out, they saw about seventy or eighty people holding swords. Leading them was a man with a sinister face holding a golden knife in his hand.

　　This golden sword does not mean that the entire sword is made of gold.

　　Gold is too soft and is not suitable for making a knife. Besides, how much gold would it take to make a golden knife like this?
