He wrinkled his face and said in a deep voice, "Repeat what you just said."

Aunt Liu didn't know why, but since it was the young master's request, she would follow it without hesitation.

"I just said that this medicine was airlifted from Kyoto...

"These medicines are considered very precious medicinal materials in the capital, and they are also Madam's wish. I hope the young master will not make Madam sad."

Hearing about Su's house in Jingdu again, Gu Jingxing confirmed this time that he didn't hear it wrong.

It is really bought from Su's house in Kyoto.

"Where did mother get these medicinal materials from?"

"It's hard to buy medicine from the Su family in Kyoto."

Even if he wanted to buy the Su family's medicinal materials, he would definitely not be able to buy them.

All medicinal materials, no matter they are rare or common, as long as they come from the Su family, without exception, the price is three to four times higher than that sold in the outside market.

Even if the two herbs are exactly the same, there is no difference.

There is no other reason, only because all the medicinal materials of the Su family come from the Yaowang Valley deep in the north of Kyoto.

Yaowang Valley is located in the north of Kyoto, with a special environment and a special temperature. It can be called the most suitable place in China for the growth of various medicinal materials.

The medicinal materials inside are of high quality.

It is obviously the same type of medicinal materials, as long as they are picked from the Yaowang Valley, they are definitely infinitely better than any other place in the country.

This is also the reason why the medicinal materials of the Su family were looted by the market.

Of course, there is another reason for this.

Yaowang Valley is extremely dangerous, most of it is a primeval forest that no one has visited since ancient times, with dense forests, countless ferocious beasts, and poisonous snakes.

More importantly, there are countless poisonous gases roaming inside, and it is absolutely difficult for ordinary people to survive in it, let alone go in to collect medicine.

So even though countless people are eyeing the medicinal materials inside, it is difficult to use their means.

But the Su family didn't know what kind of "magic power" was there, not only could they ignore all kinds of poisonous gas, frequently enter and leave the Valley of Medicine Kings, but they could also come out unscathed.

This undoubtedly established the unshakable position of the Su family medicinal materials in the market.

Aunt Liu was thinking about how to get the young master to drink this bowl of medicine to ease the relationship between the wife and the young master, when Gu Jingxing suddenly asked another question.

She froze for a second.

"This medicine..."

The young master actually asked her, how did Madam get this medicine...

To put it nicely, she is the person who accompanies Madam, but to put it badly, she is at best just the nanny of the Gu family.

This is a matter of the Gu family's privacy. How could a nanny know about it?

Isn't it embarrassing for the young master to ask such a question?

Gu Jingxing tapped the table with his fingers, and his eyes were fixed on the bowl of medicine. The medicine was black and seemed to be bottomless.

After waiting for a long time, Aunt Liu did not answer.

"You don't know?" The man looked at Aunt Liu with dark eyes.

Aunt Liu laughed twice, and shook her head truthfully, "I am only responsible for taking care of the daily life of you and your wife, young master. I don't know much about other things, and I dare not master them."

She really didn't dare to know more about these things involving the secrets of the Gu family.

Gu Jingxing glanced at Aunt Liu, as if he suddenly realized that he was embarrassing the old man with this question, so he stopped talking.

During a moment of silence, Aunt Liu was about to pick up the bowl and continue to persuade the young master, when suddenly a picture appeared in her mind.

"Young master, I just remembered that this medicinal material was taken from the wooden box nearer the inner part of the medicinal material room according to Madam's instructions."

"So?" Gu Jingxing didn't look up.

"The medicinal materials in the medicinal material room are placed according to the time, and the innermost wooden box is filled with medicinal materials that were delivered a long time ago."

"So this medicinal material should have been produced a few years ago."

Gu Jingxing raised his head this time, "When exactly?"

As soon as this question was asked, Aunt Liu suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

She knew the answer, but it seemed that the answer was hard to say.

"Say."

"I don't know the exact time... But what is certain is that this medicinal material was sent to the Gu family when the master and the young master were alive."

"This medicine should be bought by the master or the young master."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jingxing immediately knew why Aunt Liu couldn't speak.

Because since the death of his father and elder brother, it has become an unwritten rule of the Gu family not to mention the two of them.

Aunt Liu had some concerns, which was inevitable.

"Master... are you... all right?"

She really didn't want to mention it, because when it came to the two of them, the young master always had great mood swings.

But to answer this question, it is necessary to mention...

"I'm fine, don't worry." Gu Jingxing said calmly.

"It's been a long time since this happened, and I'm not that vulnerable."

Aunt Liu still felt embarrassed in her heart, so she could only say embarrassingly, "That's good, that's good..."

Gu Jingxing's eyes moved to the bowl of medicine on the table again, and what Aunt Liu said just now came to mind.

If his father or elder brother bought this medicine, he would have nothing to say.

When my elder brother was in charge of Gu's, Gu's company was in its heyday, not only overshadowing the sky in Haicheng.

And in Kyoto, it should not be underestimated.

Unlike today's Gu's... from its peak to its decline, if Gu's company is mentioned in the capital now, no one will hear it.

There was a self-deprecating smile on the corner of Gu Jingxing's mouth.

Aunt Liu saw the young master staring at the bowl of medicine, neither said to drink, nor said not to drink.

She couldn't help but said, "This bowl of medicine...you?"

Before the words fell, Gu Jingxing knew what she wanted to say, picked up the bowl of medicine, and drank the bowl of medicine without a single pause.

Aunt Liu's eyes widened.

She was still thinking about how to persuade the young master, but she didn't expect him to drink it all in one gulp.

"Okay, it's over."

"You can go back and do business for your mother."

The man stood up and grabbed the suit on the hanger, as if he was about to put on his coat and leave.

"Master, are you going to the company?"

"Yeah." The man replied lightly.

"Madam just said... you were hungover last night, so take a good rest today and don't go to the company, otherwise you will be too tired." Aunt Liu hurriedly tried to persuade her.

Gu Jingxing raised his eyebrows, feeling a little impatient, "Didn't you drink the bowl of medicine from the Su family just now?"

"Didn't your mother tell you that the Su family's medicine is very precious and effective?"

"I just drank the whole bowl. Since the effect is so good, I don't need to worry about it."

Aunt Liu held her hand silently, not knowing whether the young master's words were ironic or explaining the facts.

But her sixth sense told her... the young master is not in a good mood right now.

I don't know if it's because I just mentioned the young master or some other reason.

"Master...", she wanted to say something else.

But Gu Jingxing put the coat on his body, picked up the keys on the table, and walked outside, "I'm leaving."

"If my mother asks, tell her that things in the company are complicated, and if I don't deal with them in a day, a lot of things will pile up. I have to go to the company."

With that said, he lifted his feet and went downstairs.

In the blink of an eye, the man had already got into the car, and when he stepped on the accelerator, he couldn't even see the back of the car.

Only Aunt Liu was left stamping her feet on the spot.
