"Let's go." The four of them walked towards the living room in a mighty manner.
"Sister, here I come"
As soon as Gu Lingyan arrived in the living room, she saw the two tied-up siblings and their miserable appearance. They were still groaning and howling, and she felt more relieved. It turned out that happiness must be built on the suffering of others.
"This is Miss Gu, right? I, the head of the family, have brought my good-for-nothing children to you to apologize. I hope Miss Gu will be magnanimous and spare these two siblings."
Before he even sat down, the head of the Shen family couldn't wait to say that he thought Gu Lingyan was young and didn't understand these things. In addition, Gu Lingyan's parents didn't come forward to mediate the matter, and it was entirely left to these two little brats to solve. Therefore, the head of the Shen family subconsciously looked down on Gu Lingyan and Gu Lingfeng.
"Master Shen, it's good that you also know that your children are useless," Gu Lingyan said sarcastically.
The head of the Shen family was embarrassed by Gu Lingyan's words, and his displeasure was immediately apparent on his face. If he had not considered that this was in the General's Mansion, he might have already taken action. After all, he didn't dare to be too arrogant in someone else's territory, and his children still needed the antidote.
The Shen couple learned from Gu Lingfeng that only Gu Lingyan had the antidote to the itching powder, so they had to coax Gu Lingyan, but how could Gu Lingyan be such an easy person to fool.
"I also hope that Miss Gu can show mercy and let my two children go. This is our apology gift. Please accept it, Miss Gu," said Mrs. Shen.
"Then it depends on your sincerity."
"Zi Yu, Zi Rui, go and see what gifts Patriarch Shen brought."
Upon hearing this, the two siblings went and opened the box in the living room.
Gu Lingyan looked over and found that there were quite a few third-level elixirs, as well as many second-level spiritual plants, refining materials, and 10 million gold coins. It seemed that the arrival of a fifth-level alchemist in the Shen family gave them more confidence. They even took out the third-level elixirs that were rare in Tiancheng Kingdom. It seemed that these two siblings were very important in the Shen family, but it was understandable, after all, they were legitimate sons and daughters.
"Okay, I've accepted all the gifts. I forgive their disrespect to me. You guys can leave now." Gu Lingyan accepted the gifts and drove them away.
"Miss Gu, what about the antidote?" Madam Shen was anxious. Damn it, how could Gu Lingyan just pretend to be stupid.
"Antidote, what antidote?" Gu Lingyan pretended to be surprised.
"Miss Gu, this is like this. My son was poisoned by a very strong itching powder. Could you please give me the antidote?" The head of the Shen family knew in his heart that it was Gu Lingyan who gave him the drug, but he couldn't say it out loud. He felt really aggrieved.
"Oh! I see."
"Didn't I hear that your Shen family has a fifth-level alchemist? Can't he even relieve this little itching powder? It's too useless." Gu Lingyan said sarcastically, which made the Shen couple very angry.
"It's this fifth-level alchemist. It can't be fake. It can't be that your Shen family deliberately released false information." Gu Lingfeng also maxed out his taunting skills.
"Of course he's a real fifth-level alchemist. How dare we tell such a big lie?" The head of the Shen family gritted his teeth.
"Hahaha, so it's true. Then this fifth-level alchemist is still too useless," Gu Lingfeng laughed.
"Hahaha, this is too funny"
"Miss, it seems that this fifth-level alchemist really deserves his reputation." He Ziyu also turned on the mocking mode.
"How can a maid like you have the right to interrupt the master when he is talking?" Mrs. Shen was very uncomfortable when she saw that a maid dared to mock them so arrogantly. The Gu family was too much and simply did not take their Shen family seriously.
"Madam Shen, this is their freedom. We can't just shut their mouths." Gu Lingyan also directly defended her maid. How could she allow others to bully her in her own home?
"Miss Gu, can you give us the antidote?" Seeing his two children crying beside him, the head of the Shen family could only put aside his anger for the time being.
"Antidote! Easy, one antidote, 10 million gold coins."
“10 million, you are robbing money!” Mrs. Shen exclaimed.
“The price is here, you don’t have to.”
"Yes, we want two, but I don't have enough gold coins now. Can you give me the antidote first?" The head of the Shen family knew that he had to pay the money.
"It doesn't have to be a one-way handover of money and goods. If you don't have money, you can write an IOU," Gu Lingyan directly refused and suggested.
"Okay." The head of the Shen family could only agree.
"Zi Yu, prepare your pen, ink, paper, and inkstone."
After one stick of incense
"Miss, I'm ready."
"Move over and write quickly! If I'm not satisfied with what you write, I won't give you the antidote!" Gu Lingyan pointed to the paper and pen on the table.
The head of the Shen family had no choice but to write an IOU.
There was a moment of silence in the living room, with only the sound of writing being heard.
a while
"Okay." Patriarch Shen put down the pen and paper.
Gu Lingyan picked up the IOU and looked at it, thinking to herself, "He's quite honest. He knows I'm not easy to bully, so he doesn't dare to do anything naughty."
Then he showed the IOU to Gu Lingfeng, who agreed.
"Here, these are two antidotes." Gu Lingyan threw out a bottle containing two detoxification pills, which Gu Lingyan had prepared on the way here.
The head of the Shen family then gave it to Shen Wenqian and Shen Wenzhe to eat. After eating it, the two stopped groaning immediately and were all healed in an instant.
"Master Shen, remember to return the gold coins quickly. If you don't return them within five days, don't blame me for what I'm going to do with the IOU. It would be hilarious if everyone in the city knew that the Shen family, one of the three major families, owed money and didn't pay it back." Gu Lingfeng threatened, directly endangering Master Shen.
