I am the stepmother of my son, and the little villain has changed into a little cotton-padded jacket

Wen Shutang didn't take the incident to heart and took the children to Jishidiang.

Jishidiang also returned to its former tranquility, with only a few people dispensing medicine in the clinic.

Ah Fu and Ah Yi smiled when they saw Wen Shutang and nodded slightly to greet him.

Ah Fu smiled and wiped the medicine residue off his hands: "Wan'er is here, Master is serving herbs in the inner hall, I will go tell him that Junior Sister is here."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the inner hall.

Xiao Wan happily ran to Ayi and fiddled with the herbs he had just put down.

"Brother, what are you doing? Why haven't you seen such herbs before?"

Ayi smiled and reached out to rub the top of her head, his tone very gentle. They both doted on this little sister.

"This is from Master's medicine garden. It's a new variety that Master spent a lot of time growing."

When Xiao Wan heard Ayi say that these were new varieties, her eyes suddenly lit up and she lowered her head to carefully examine these herbs.

Wen Shutang couldn't help but smile when he saw Xiao Wan like this.

Xue Ming and Ah Fu walked out from the inner hall. Xue Ming had a kind smile on his face and his eyes were full of fondness when he looked at Xiao Wan.

"Wan'er is here? Come here quickly and let me take a good look at you." Xue Ming waved to Xiao Wan.

Hearing Xue Ming's voice, Xiao Wan raised her head with a hint of surprise in her eyes, and ran happily to Xue Ming's side, not at all disgusted by the dirt on his body, and threw herself on Xue Ming and hugged him tightly.

"Master!"

"Hey, good boy." Xue Ming caught Xiao Wan and smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.

He looked at Xiao Wan'er's face carefully: "Is Wan'er okay these days? The disease should not have spread to the village yet."

Xiao Wan smiled with narrowed eyes, shook her head and replied: "Master, I'm fine. I've been living in the village with my grandfather, so nothing has happened. But Master, are you okay? I heard that the plague in the town is very serious. Mother hasn't been home for several days. I'm worried that you will be infected too."

Hearing what she said, Xue Ming's heart was melted by his little disciple. He pinched Xiao Wan's little face and wouldn't let go, his words full of love for her.

"I'm fine. Your mother has been helping Master in town, so she hasn't gone back."

"So that's how it is." Xiao Wan nodded in understanding.

Xue Ming looked up and exchanged a glance with Wen Shutang. Neither of them revealed to Xiao Wan the fact that Xue Ming had been infected.

After a few casual chats, Wen Shutang realized that all the rare herbs planted in Xue Ming's backyard had grown.

Xue Ming stroked his long goat beard and said doubtfully, "I have been taking care of the calamus in my backyard for a long time but they have not sprouted. But a few days ago, I don't know why they suddenly sprouted and are growing very lush and healthy. I am a little confused. Should I just leave them alone?"

Hearing this, Wen Shutang paused, looked up at Xue Ming and asked, "Acorus? Is it the calamus that repels mosquitoes and refreshes the mind?"

Xue Ming nodded: "Yes, that's right. I originally wanted to use it as medicine, but it didn't grow for a long time. It suddenly grew so well, which is really incredible."

Hearing what he said, Ah Fu at the side scratched his head awkwardly and explained in a low voice: "Uh, Master, I forgot to tell you that you were sick a few days ago... cough cough cough, when I was resting, I prepared tonic medicine for you, and when I passed by the medicine garden behind, I scattered the medicine, and it was all poured on the place where you planted calamus. Is it related to this?"

Ah Fu almost let out the fact that Xue Ming was infected, but he quickly stopped and changed his words.

Hearing this, Xue Ming immediately blew his beard and glared at Ah Fu: "You little brat, you are always rash in everything you do. You must be more steady next time, okay? What is the tonic you are talking about? It has such a fertility-promoting effect."

Ah Fu lowered his head and thought for a while: "It's the small bottle that Junior Sister's mother gave me. I mixed the liquid medicine inside into ordinary soup medicine. There's nothing else."

Wen Shutang blinked her eyes. Ah, she seemed to have given Xue Ming some spiritual spring water in order to quickly cure Xue Ming's smallpox.

Unexpectedly, Ah Fu accidentally watered the calamus. The spiritual spring water gathered all the essence in the space. Not to mention the herbs that didn't grow, even a half-dead person could be brought back to life after taking the spiritual spring water.

Xue Ming looked at Wen Shutang in confusion, and Wen Shutang quickly explained: "My medicine is nothing special, it's just extracted from herbs."

After hearing what she said, Xue Ming no longer doubted it. He touched his chin and muttered, "It really should have nothing to do with this."

Wen Shutang immediately felt relieved. She and Xiao Wan chatted with Xue Ming for a while before leaving Jishidiang.

As soon as they went out, they ran into Xiao Yizhuo who was looking for them.

"Daddy!" Xiao Wan's mood obviously improved after meeting Xue Ming. When he saw Xiao Yizhuo, he shouted happily.

Xiao Yizhuo smiled, bent down and picked up his daughter, then reached out and touched her nose: "Did you listen to your mother?"

Xiao Wan hugged Xiao Yizhuo's neck and nodded vigorously: "Of course I listened to my mother!"

"Good girl, Wan'er." Xiao Yizhuo looked at his little girl lovingly.

Wen Shutang stood nearby and noticed that there was some dust on Xiao Yizhuo's shoulder. He subconsciously reached out to brush it away.

"Why did you make so much dust? Can't you be more careful?"

Xiao Yizhuo looked at Wen Shutang gently, and said in a lighter tone: "I was in such a hurry just now when I came here that I bumped into the sapling outside the clinic, and that's why it got stained with dust."

Wen Shutang seemed to be able to imagine the funny look of Xiao Yizhuo bumping his head against the small tree. Imagining his huge body bumping into the sapling, and the sapling shaking pitifully, Wen Shutang couldn't help laughing.

The two sons were walking beside them, and when they heard what their father said, they both couldn't help but laugh secretly.

Xue Ming, who stayed in the clinic, looked at the happy backs of the family with a loving smile.

A few people crossed the main street and planned to get on a carriage back to Da'an Village. As soon as they turned the corner and left the street, Tang Mengyan appeared on the main street with Bihe.

Tang Mengyan unconsciously glanced in the direction where Wen Shutang and Xiao Yizhuo had just left, and she frowned in confusion.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt like someone familiar had just walked by.

Before she could think more, her thoughts were interrupted by Bihe beside her.

"Miss, where should we go to find someone? We have searched Qingshui Town inside and out but haven't seen anyone. Why don't we go back? If the eldest young master knew that we sneaked out, he would definitely be angry." Bihe said with some concern.
