Chapter 156
Looking at the jade pendant shaking in the air, Li Mengyao's eyes flickered.

It can be seen that Li Mengyao really likes this jade pendant.

"Brother Wu Di, where did this come from? It's expensive, right?"

Li Mengyao didn't pick it up, and didn't even dare to raise her hand to touch it, maybe because she was afraid of breaking the jade pendant.It is also possible that he knew that this jade pendant was too expensive and dared not accept it.

"This is carved by my master himself. Oh! You don't care if it's expensive or not, just say whether you like it or not?"

"Hi... I like it! But this jade pendant should be too expensive, what should I do if others gossip?"

"Who dares? I'll beat him up." Wu Di pulled off the red rope, stood up and put it on Li Mengyao's neck, then took a few steps back to look at it, gave a thumbs up and praised, "It's so beautiful! Yumei, people are more beautiful."

After some compliments, Li Mengyao's face turned red with embarrassment.

"By the way! Don't let daddy see it. With his character of serving the people wholeheartedly, one day the money is not enough for charity, he might sell this jade pendant."

"Hehe...!" Li Mengyao covered her mouth and chuckled, carefully put the jade pendant into her pocket, and said again: "See what you think of Daddy, if he hears it, he will beat you with a big wooden club."

"I can't run?" Wu Di sat back on the stone bench and said with a smile.

"Yes! When you were young, you were disobedient, and your father beat you, and you ran away too. At that time, he could still catch up with you."

Li Mengyao took a look at Wu Di, her eyes were full of reminiscence, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and there was a charming sweet smile on her pretty face.

Wu Di said nothing, because at that time, he was not the master of this body.At this moment, I can only listen to Li Mengyao's murmurs and see the sweet smile on Li Mengyao's face.

Unfortunately, that charming smile didn't last long, and disappeared with a sigh after only three breaths.

"But now... hey! Daddy's body is getting worse day by day, and his temples are turning white after he's over half a century old. I'm really worried if he continues to work like this..."

Li Mengyao didn't dare to continue talking, and slowly lowered her head.

Although I couldn't see the sadness in Li Mengyao's eyes, how could Wu Di be a fool?
"Sister Mengyao, don't worry about this. I will take care of my father's health when I come back this time, and I will ensure that my father will live a long and healthy life."

"Is it really possible?"

"Really!" Wu Di nodded, then thought of something, took out three gold ingots from his arms and handed them to Li Mengyao: "These three gold ingots can be exchanged for 300 million taels of silver at Tianbao Bank. If you are short of money, you can give it to him."

Li Mengyao took the three gold ingots in astonishment, looked at Yan Yan and said, "This gold ingot is so valuable?"

"Yuanbao is not worth a million taels of silver, but the words Tianbao Bank engraved on the bottom are worth millions. When I just came back, I wandered around the city, but I didn't find the name of Tianbao Bank. It doesn't matter. We will When Kunyuan City becomes rich, Tianbao Bank will naturally come to its door."

Today's Kunyuan City is inferior to Fengqi City, and even more incomparable to Tianyuan City.But Wu Di firmly believed that according to his father's drive, Kunyuan City would change drastically within a year.

At that time, there will be auction houses, pawnshops, money shops, weapons shops in the city... and Kunyuan City will become completely rich.

"It's getting late, let's go back and rest. Tomorrow I will exercise exercises for daddy to recuperate his body. Sister Mengyao, just look at it. Our daddy's body will become healthier day by day."

Wu Di stood up, and Li Mengyao couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear when she heard this.

"Okay, okay! Daddy always said that you have no heart, and you will lose your heart when you go out. This time, let Daddy see that Brother Wu Di has learned his skills." Li Mengyao nodded repeatedly and said yes, then turned around and said with a smile: "Then Brother Wu Di also rested earlier, so I will go back to my room and hide the gold ingot. Dad won’t want Mengyao’s jade pendant, but this gold ingot... Hehe! It’s better not to let him know.”

Seeing Li Mengyao enter the second room in the East Wing, Wu Di smiled and shook his head.

"This girl is still so kind-hearted, she really resembles Li Xiuyuan in this way."

Wu Di looked away while muttering, and turned to look at the third room in the west wing.

The lights in Shangguanxue's room had already been turned off, and after dinner, Shangguanxue quietly went back to the room, until he and Li Mengyao chatted in the courtyard for a long time, Shangguanxue did not come out to disturb.

This point makes Wu Di very strange.

He didn't believe that Shangguan Xue would be beautiful as an adult, and Shangguan Xue was very strange after entering the mansion. First she took Li Mengyao to take a bath, and then she didn't talk much at the dinner table. After dinner, she went back to the room. All the signs were completely different from the Shangguan Xue he knew. different.

As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons.

Wu Di felt that there must be something wrong here.

"Why don't you knock on Shangguan Xue's door and ask for clarification while there is no one there?"

Wu Di stroked his chin and counted.

After a while, Wu Di shook his head.

"It's better not to ask. If you can't say a few words to this girl, you're sure to start arguing with each other again. It's still in the city lord's mansion in the middle of the night. It's not good to startle Li's father and daughter with some gossip."

Wu Di dismissed this idea, turned around and took a few steps up the steps, and went directly into the east wing.

But just a few seconds after Wu Di closed the door, the door of the west wing opened.

Shangguan Xue didn't sleep at all, stood at the door and watched Wu Di's room turn off the lights, then shifted her gaze to Li Mengyao's room, and sighed after a long time.

"I hope you can give me an accurate answer!"

While muttering, Shangguan Xue looked up at the crescent moon in the night sky.For some reason, there was a subtle change in that month, with some faint flickering, quite strange.

After looking at the moon for a long time, Shangguanxue sighed and retreated to the room. After closing the door, there was no sound in the room.

That night, Wu Di didn't meditate and practiced, he took off his coat and slept very comfortably.

It wasn't until the sun was high that Wu Di stretched and got up from the bed.

"Ten months, more than 300 days and nights. But no night, I slept as comfortably as last night."

Wu Di went to the window, opened the window and moved his body, then walked back a few steps and opened the door, walked out of the room to the courtyard.

"Brother Wu Di, are you awake? Hurry up and wash up, I'll bring the food to your room."

Li Mengyao seemed to have woken up very early and had been busy for quite a while, with a little bit of sweat on her forehead. Now when she came from the backyard and saw Wu Di, she hurriedly smiled and spoke.

"Yeah! I'm going to wash up right now." Wu Di smiled lightly, turned around and was about to walk into the house, suddenly seemed to think of something, turned around and glanced at the third room to the west, and asked Li Mengyao: "Is she up yet? "

"Sister Xue'er is not as lazy as you. She got up just before dawn. However, she left."

"Gone? Where did you go?" Wu Di was stunned.

"Going back to Tianyuanzong. I wanted to wake you up so that you could see her off, but she refused."
