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

After returning home, Xiao Ze found Wen Shutang who was about to return to his room, and expressed his doubts hesitantly: "Mom, is that person dead?"

Wen Shutang knew that Xiao Ze was also present that day. He was already old enough to understand things, so it was not surprising that he could guess something.

She pulled Xiao Ze into the room, closed the door, and then nodded and said, "You're right, Xu Ren is dead."

Although Xiao Ze was still just a child, his first reaction when he heard about this was not panic. Instead, he frowned and asked calmly, "Where's the body?"

"Don't worry, everything has been handled. You just need to comfort A'ye and Wan'er." Wen Shutang turned around, sat on a round stool and poured him a glass of water.

Wen Shutang was not very surprised by Xiao Ze's reaction. How could someone who would become the prime minister in the future be scared by such a thing?

Xiao Ze nodded: "I know."

Since Wen Shutang said so, he naturally didn't need to worry anymore, and his frown relaxed slightly.

"Aren't the questions the old gentleman gave my little sister a little too difficult? She is so young, how can she remember so many medicinal herbs in just three days?" Xiao Ze frowned, a little worried about Xiao Wan.

Wen Shutang smiled and consoled her, "No one knows the outcome now. All we can do is to fully support Wan'er. Since she likes medicine, she will definitely try her best to do this. Hard work has nothing to do with age. Aze should understand this."

Xiao Ze was stunned for a moment and then a faint smile appeared on his handsome face. Yes, no matter how old you are, as long as it is something you want to do, you must try your best to do it. No matter the result is good or bad, as long as you have tried your best, it is good.

Besides, his younger sister is very meticulous, so there is definitely a chance of success.

"That's right, I was a little too worried." Xiao Ze responded with a smile.

After saying this, he stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Wen Shutang.

"Aze, wait a minute, I have something for you." Wen Shutang stood up and turned to find the book "The Art of War" in the cabinet.

She thought this book would be of great help to Xiao Ze, so she handed it to him and said, "This is for you."

Xiao Ze took the book and was stunned for a moment when he saw the four big words on it, then asked in confusion: "Why did mother give me this book?"

"This book discusses many military strategies in detail. I think it may be helpful to you. If you can understand such a flexible military strategy, then these strategies should be easier for you."

After hearing this, Xiao Ze opened the book and read it briefly. His eyes gradually became serious and surprised. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wen Shutang.

"Where did you get this book, mother? You can study military tactics to such an extent."

"I just bought it casually from a study in town. I bought it because I thought it was good. I'm glad you like it." Wen Shutang looked away and didn't look at Xiao Ze, and made up an excuse.

Xiao Ze was completely attracted by the book and did not notice anything wrong with Wen Shutang's lame excuse.

He lowered his head in response, his eyes never leaving the pages of the book: "Thank you, mother. I will read it carefully when I get back."

"Okay, but don't forget what the teacher taught you." Wen Shutang nodded in response.

After responding, Xiao Ze turned around and left the room, going straight back to his own room. He wanted to study this strange book carefully. Every word in it was very attractive to him, and every article on military strategy made him marvel.

Wen Shutang looked at his back until Xiao Ze completely disappeared around the corner. She originally wanted to give him the book later, but Xiao Ze happened to come to her, so she simply gave it to him directly. It was also good for Xiao Ze to get in touch with it earlier.

In addition, with Xiao Ze's understanding, he should be able to understand the obscure words written in the book.

Wen Shutang took out another copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica" from the cabinet and walked out of the room. Perhaps the person who needs book assistance the most now is Xiao Wan.

She did not find Xiao Wan in the yard, nor did she find her in the kitchen or in front of the rabbit cage, which made Wen Shutang a little confused.

Finally, she found Xiao Wan in the corner of the small warehouse. Xiao Wan was sitting on a small wooden stool with ten kinds of medicinal herbs spread out in front of him.

When Wen Shutang found her, Xiao Wan was frowning and carefully distinguishing several medicinal herbs, muttering about their effects.

Xiao Wan was extremely serious and didn't even notice Wen Shutang walked in. It was only when she walked in front of Xiao Wan that Xiao Wan noticed her.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"Let me take a look at you. How is it? Is it easy to confuse?" Wen Shutang sat down on the ground next to her and reached out to fiddle with the herbs on the ground.

Xiao Wan frowned and nodded: "Yes, the pharmacology of Angelica dahurica and Perilla leaf is really similar. I always can't remember which one has the effect of promoting qi and soothing the stomach."

She lowered her head in frustration, and clicked her fingers in a depressed mood: "Maybe I'm really not suitable for this path."

Wen Shutang frowned upon hearing her words, and reached out to pinch her tender little face: "Don't say discouraging words, there is no such thing as suitability, only whether you are willing to work hard or not. Didn't Wan'er just boast to the old man that she wanted to prove that girls can also achieve great things? Why are you giving up so easily now?"

Xiao Wan pursed her lips, her eyes filled with reluctance: "Girls can definitely achieve great things, I won't give up."

"That's right. This kind of unyielding spirit is what we want." Wen Shutang smiled when he heard her say this.

"It's okay, Wan'er, don't be discouraged. Temporary difficulties are nothing. Look what I brought you." She took out the "Compendium of Materia Medica" from her arms.

When Xiao Wan saw the book, she was stunned for a moment: "A book? Why did mother give me this?"

"Open it and take a look." Wen Shutang raised his chin, motioning her to open the book and take a look.

Xiao Wan was confused, but still opened the book. The first page recorded in detail the effects of Angelica dahurica and the conditions required for its growth, and even described in great detail what Angelica dahurica looked like.

"Angelica dahurica is mostly in the shape of an oblong cone, with a gray-brown or yellow-brown surface, a sunken stem scar on the top, a solid texture, a white or grayish-white cross section, and many brown oil spots. It is mostly used to dispel cold, dispel wind and relieve pain, and reduce swelling and discharge pus. Angelica dahurica can be decocted for oral administration or made into pills and powders."

Xiao Wan's tone became more and more surprised, and in the end she even stood up excitedly.

“It’s so detailed!”

Wen Shutang couldn't help but smile at her reaction: "I bought this book from the study in town. I think it should be helpful to you."

"It's so helpful! It turns out that Angelica dahurica can dispel wind and relieve pain. This book also records its other effects. It's even more detailed than what you said, sir." Xiao Wan flipped through a few pages and found that every page recorded this kind of medicinal material, and some medicinal materials even took up several pages.

Wen Shutang smiled slightly and thought he was joking. That was Compendium of Materia Medica, a medical masterpiece, how could it not be detailed.
