d"Zong Lao San and his daughter-in-law exchanged glances. Although He shi rarely spoke, she was not stupid.Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to live in the family for so long without being favored...The construction specifications of Bai Cui Yuan were clearly visible. Although it was a guest house, it was more luxurious than most people's courtyards outside.

The scenery is also breathtaking.

After bringing the person in, the servant said:

"Please, esteemed guests, make yourselves at home. Should you require anything, simply ring the bell inside and a servant will attend to you immediately."

Gu Liu-sheng values privacy and generally dislikes having servants stationed around the house. He prefers to use a bell to summon help when needed.

When you pull the bell rope, a servant will appear. Usually, there are no servants moving around outside the door or in the courtyard.

Unless they are performing necessary cleaning work.

“In addition, someone would regularly come to replace the tea, refreshments, incense, and brazier inside the room.”

"If you do not need to change, please pull this bell."

Fang Jinshi nodded, and the servants nodded and retreated.

This guest house is quite large, and the rooms are also independent of each other. Fang Jinshi pushed open one of them and took a look. It turned out to be a suite with its own inner world.

The outside is a reception room. You have to go through the reception room and turn another handle to reach the bedroom.

After seeing the Gu family's courtyard, even Su Yusheng couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"Gu's family certainly lives up to their reputation as the wealthiest in the Northwest, even their guest courtyard is built with such exquisite detail."

It is much better than many merchants' homes.

Fu Ming didn't feel anything, after all, the most luxurious and expensive house in the world was his.

Even someone who has grown tired of looking at the imperial palace will find little to feel moved by when they see an ordinary person's courtyard.

He went straight into the living room, found a chair and sat down. He picked up an apple from the table and started munching on it, grumbling to himself as he ate.

"Mr. Gu has locked us in the dungeon, I'm starving to death!"

Fang Jinshu was a little surprised, "Did Gu Liusheng lock you up and not give you food"

It's not that bad, Gu Liusheng kept them because he was worried about Gu Feng during this detoxification process, something might go wrong.

They don't harbor that much ill will toward them.

Su Yusheng smiled and explained, “Master Gu didn't starve us. We have three meals a day delivered, and the dishes are quite plentiful. They aren't much different from those in an outside restaurant.”

"It's just that Mr. Fu felt that Second Master Gu might be detrimental to us, suspecting he poisoned the food, so he didn't eat a single bite."

Fang Jinshu looked speechless.

"Hmph, if he wanted to do something to you, would he need to poison you"

Fu Ming shrugged, admitting he had been a bit too cautious, but that was just the vigilance he had been forced to cultivate from a young age.

Zhao Xingzhou, who had remained silent and ignored by Fang Jinshu all along, finally spoke up.

His voice was a little hoarse, "Gu Liusheng hasn't done anything to you, have you guys done anything excessive"

"Why does he still keep you when you refuse to let him go"

This is also exactly what Fu Ming and Su Yusheng were both concerned about.

Fang Jinxiu had promised Gu Liusheng that she would never disclose a single word about Gu Feng to anyone, even Fu Ming. He only knew that she was invited by Gu Liusheng to see him as a doctor.

So she simply went along with that reason.

"My only talent is medicine, he invited me here to treat people naturally."

"As for why they still haven't let us go, it's probably because they are too paranoid and don't really trust my medical skills."

"Don't worry, at most in two or three days, he will definitely let us go."

"It's just that it implicated Young Master Su. He had to put aside his family affairs and was forced to stay here with us, under house arrest for a few days."

Su Yusheng waved his hand. "No problem, I had already instructed the household manager before leaving. Even if I'm not here, nothing major will happen to the Su family."

After a period of absence, Su Yusheng's temperament had become much milder than before.

He smiled and exchanged a few belated greetings with Fang Jinshu.

"It's been a long time, Zong."

"Is Yu Lian alright"

Zongyu heard this person dare to mention his younger sister, and instantly a layer of frost appeared on his face.

Fan Jinxiu hurriedly grabbed his arm and smiled in agreement.

"Jade Lotus is doing great, that girl is running the shop herself now and getting better every day."

"So, Young Master Su, you've returned but haven't made arrangements for a wedding yet"

She was a bit confused. Could it be that Su Yusheng really had developed some kind of feeling for Yu Lian, perhaps even a "familiarity breeds contempt" sort of feelingars, she had long since forgotten what it felt like to be sick. Even if her immunity was truly weakened and she caught a cold, she would drink the spring water and eat wind-dispelling pills.How could...
