Li Jingyu teleported himself back to his own courtyard. The teleportation array allowed him to teleport to any place he had been to at will.
"Xiao Jin, I took Sister Jingjing to visit the whole village, and played with Ayu and the others." Sang Yu told Sang Jin about their journey that afternoon.
"Sister Jingjing also said that she would go to the academy with me when school starts."
"That's great. Jingjing will be staying with us for a long time, and the academy is a good place for her to go." All children in the village who are under the age of sixteen can study at Shengdan Academy.
Sang Jin's decision to open a school in the village wasn't out of philanthropy; she simply wanted to give the villagers a chance to become stronger. And this possibility varies from person to person.
The hunting team formed freely by the monks in the village, if the monsters they hunt can be exchanged for spirit stones, will be distributed among the participants in the hunt.
After Sang Yu sent Bai Jingjing back to Sang Jin, he was about to return to his East Courtyard when he suddenly saw a familiar figure.
"Master Yu. You are here to see Xiao Jin." Sang Yu greeted Li Jingyu.
"Yeah." Li Jingyu replied lightly.
As soon as Li Jingyu entered the courtyard, he saw a girl in white whispering something in Sang Jin's ear. Who was that? He had never seen her before.
Bai Jingjing felt a strong gaze on her: "Who are you? Why are you staring at me?"
"็ ็ . This is Bai Jingjing. I picked her up outside. Jingjing, this is Li Jing็ . My companion." Sang Jin briefly introduced the other party.
Li Jingyu released his divine sense, but even he couldn't detect the girl's cultivation level. Could it be higher than the Golden Core Realm? Remember, Li Jingyu was currently at the late Golden Core Great Perfection stage. With this in mind, Li Jingyu pulled Sang Jing over alone.
"Xiao Jing, this person's origins are unknown. I can't even tell her level of cultivation. It's probably not appropriate to keep her around."
She knew Bai Jingjing's background very well. As for whether she was reliable? So far, she was.
"It's okay. Her background is very clean."
Although Sang Jin said it was okay, Li Jingyu was still a little worried. He casually broke off a branch in the garden.
"This branch carries the aura of me, a late Jindan cultivator. I can help you."
"Thank you, Ruo Ruo!" Sang Jin happily put away the branch that carried Li Jing Ruo's scent. This could be one of her trump cards.
"Don't say thank you between you and me, Xiao Jin." Li Jingyu hoped that they wouldn't say thank you to each other. Whenever Sang Jin said thank you to him, he always felt that she was treating him as an outsider.
"Okay. Let's go to the dining room first." Sang Jin put away the branch, then took Bai Jingjing's hand and walked towards the dining room.
Aside from Sang Mu and Zi Shufen, the other young masters of the Sang family were all children. Therefore, they didn't have separate tables for men and women. Naturally, Li Jingyu also ate at the same table with Sang Jin and the others.
Zi Shufen wasn't surprised that Li Jingyu was coming to the Sang family for dinner. Today was Xiaojin's birthday, and Master Jingyu had always been close to her daughter. Even if he hadn't come, she would have sent for him to dinner.
"Uncle Sang, Aunt Zi. This is a New Year's gift. It's a little token of my appreciation. I'm leaving here tomorrow, so I'm giving you this gift in advance." Li Jingyue suddenly had a jade box in his hand.
"What is this? It's even in a jade box." Zi Shufen was curious. This thing looked very valuable.
"Whatever it is, just put it away. Will Master Lu come back in the future?" Sang Mu asked. No matter what the gift was, you couldn't open it in front of someone.
"Maybe." Li Jingyu glanced at Sang Jin and said.
"Come back when you have time. It's a good thing a talent like yours shouldn't be buried in this small village."
"This is Jingjing, right? Come and take a seat. We don't have so many rules in our family." Zi Shufen greeted Bai Jingjing warmly. The child looked very bright and her eyes seemed to shine like stars.
"Hello Aunt Zi, hello Uncle Sang." Bai Jing quickly learned to address them the same way Li Jingyu had just called them.
"Good boy, I heard everything from Sang Yu. She said that there is not much people at home. She and Xiao Jin are very good friends. From now on, as long as you want, you can live in the Sang family forever. We have so many empty rooms, you can live wherever you want."
"Thank you, Aunt Zi. Can I really live anywhere I want?" Bai Jingjing couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"Really." Zi Shufen replied.
"No!" Before Bai Jingjing could finish her sentence, Sang Jin expressed her opinion in advance. She was used to sleeping alone. She didn't want to sleep next to her.
"I want to live with this young man." Bai Jingjing pointed at Li Jingyu.
"No!" Li Jingyu and Sang Jing said at the same time.
Li Jingyu was stunned. Does she care about him?
"Jingjing, be good. Brother Jingyu is very busy. Men and women cannot live in the same room." Sang Jin explained quickly.
"Then why do Uncle Sang and Aunt Zi live in the same room?" Bai Jingjing was puzzled. She just thought this little brother was very handsome. She wanted to keep looking at him.
"Because my parents are husband and wife, they can live in the same house." Sang Yu thought, if he understood such a simple truth, why didn't his sister Jingjing, who was six years older than him, understand it?
"Then what is a husband and wife?" Bai Jingjing's eyes were bright, not realizing the awkwardness of the question at all.
"It's when a man and a woman like each other and get married. They become husband and wife." Finally, it was Zi Shufen who answered her question directly. This kid really dared to ask anything.
"So, then why don't I just marry him?" Bai Jingjing said innocently.
"No!" Sang Jin and Li Jingyu said in unison.
Sang Yu looked at the two of them. Their tacit understanding was pretty good.
"Because I don't like you. I don't want to marry you!" Li Jingyu spoke first and broke the brief silence.
"Hahaha...you are still children. We have to wait until you grow up to talk about getting married." Zi Shufen once again acted as a tool to resolve the awkwardness.
"Madam, the food is here." Grandma Wu successfully changed the subject with just one sentence.
"Come on, come on, why are you standing there? Let's eat. This is our first New Year's Eve in Shengdan Village. Sister Wu, you should go down and rest too. Today is a festival, so tell everyone that there's no need to serve. Just leave someone here to clear the dishes later," Zi Shufen ordered. She was now managing the mansion with increasing ease.
"Yes, ma'am."
This afternoon, the mistress distributed New Year's red envelopes to the servants. They were small bags made of red cotton. When she opened them, she saw a full ounce of silver. The mistress had already said that she would give them half a day off after lunch tomorrow, the first day of the new year.
