“What? Jiu Si is back!”
Third Miss Hua’s eyes widened as she immediately turned to look at Su Yunjin.
There stood the little young lady, frozen with tears in her eyes, biting her lip to keep them from falling.
*This girl!*
Third Miss Hua shook her head, always silently enduring her suffering alone.
“Where is he? Where’s Jiu Si?”
Third Miss Hua asked the question Su Yunjin wanted to know most, and just then, a young staff member said, “Fifth Master just killed Feng Xuan at White Tiger Hall and is on his way here. I came ahead to deliver the news.”
Hearing this, Third Miss Hua said, “Good, good, Yunjin.”
“Ah, sister, Jiu Si is back. Let’s go outside to greet him!”
“Wait, let me tidy up a bit, right away, right away…”

As Su Yunjin spoke, she desperately wiped her tears with her sleeve, but the more she wiped, the more they flowed.
At this moment, the sound of military horses could be heard outside as a large group arrived at the tofu shop’s entrance.
Chen Jie dismounted and said to the younger men with him, “You wait here. There are women inside; do not disturb them.”
“Yes, Hall Master!”
These people had already started calling him Hall Master early, even though Chen Jie told them to wait until he formally took the post. They couldn’t help themselves.
Chen Jie could only let it be. After all, in three days, he’d officially assume the title of Hall Master.
Earlier, he had arranged for the aftermath management within the gang and rushed home impatiently. Now that the big picture was settled, Zhou Chu could handle the remaining tasks that weren’t urgent.
But Chen Jie was already impatient to see his wife.
This was the longest separation since he crossed over to this world—seven full days. He wondered if his wife had become thin from hunger.
Chen Jie knew that Su Yunjin claimed she could take care of herself, but inside, she would surely be suffering, *unable to drink tea or eat food.*
Therefore, he didn’t want his wife to wait long.
After getting off the horse and giving a command, Chen Jie called out to the house, “Wife, I’m back!”
His voice accurately reached inside the house.
At this time, Ruirui, who was playing with Yin Hongmei in the backyard mill, suddenly stopped. Her little head turned eagerly towards the door, her face lit with joyful surprise: “Haha, my brother-in-law is back, Sister Hong Mei, my brother-in-law is back!”
Yin Hongmei also smiled at this moment. The master was back, so the lady should be happier.
In recent days, Su Yunjin had been *unable to drink tea or eat food,* which worried Yin Hongmei greatly, but there was nothing she could do. *Heartache is hard to cure!*
Before she could react, Daisy had already rushed out: “Brother-in-law, brother-in-law…”
Meanwhile, in the backyard, where Xiao Hu was recuperating with five trusted brothers, they suddenly looked up. Xiao Hu’s eyes shone as he laughed and said, “Haha, Fourth Brother is back. Brothers, Fourth Brother is back.”
The rest grinned widely and said, “Yes, Fifth Master is back. Fifth Master really came back!”
“Quick, help me to the front yard. I want to see Fourth Brother. I must see Fourth Brother!”
“Hey, hey, Master Hu, take it slow, don’t reopen your wounds!”
…
“Wife?”
Standing at the door, Chen Jie called again, and by then, the surrounding townsfolk had all paused, looking over.
After all, the sudden appearance of six or seven horses wasn’t something commonly seen.
Someone recognized Chen Jie and said, “Hey, isn’t that the Fifth Master of White Tiger Hall?”
“Yes, it’s him. Why’s he back? There are still Jianghu Kill Orders posted for him all over the city. Isn’t he afraid of causing trouble?”
“Exactly, and he even dares to shout like that. Is he tired of living?”
…
A group of townspeople gossiped, yet some were well-informed.
“What do you all know? Still going on about Jianghu Kill Orders. Do you even know what this Fifth Master did?”
“What did he do?”
“It would scare you to death—he killed Feng Xuan of White Tiger Hall and is about to become the new Hall Master!”
“What??”
Hearing this, the people around were surprised. Feng Xuan was dead?
“Feng Xuan is dead?”
“Yes, yes, my cousin is a disciple of White Tiger Hall and brought the news back. Feng Xuan was beaten to death in front of Mianshui’s big shots by this Fifth Master!”
“Hey, isn’t this the guy who killed Peng Shizhong? And now Feng Xuan too, isn’t anyone going to stop him?”
“What are you talking about? Feng Xuan killed Peng Shizhong—not the Fifth Master. It has nothing to do with him.”
“What about the Jianghu Kill Order?”
“All part of Feng Xuan’s conspiracy. The story behind this is fascinating. Only the Fifth Master could come out unscathed; anyone else would’ve been done for.”
Hearing this, the surrounding people gathered around, while a shopkeeper commented, “Good, Feng Xuan deserved to die. When he took charge, taxes doubled, and I’ve been worried about how to live. Who would’ve thought the trouble would just disappear, as it should!”
“Hey, hey, Old Wang, be careful with your words. Even if Feng Xuan is dead, White Tiger Hall isn’t. There might be someone harsher coming up who taxes even more!”
“That can’t be. This Fifth Master doesn’t look like a harsh person to me!”
Manager Wang said this, and another shopkeeper replied, “You never know. You can know someone’s face but not their heart!”
“This…”
Manager Wang listened, a worried expression all over his face, feeling uneasy in his heart.
“Brother-in-law!”
Chen Jie called out twice without seeing Su Yunjin come out and was puzzled when suddenly he heard a clear voice. Then he saw a girl, all dressed in a white jacket with red trim and a red hair ribbon, her face dirty, running over.
Her face was full of excitement, her big eyes sparkling, calling out for her brother-in-law with a smile that was impossible to suppress.
