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

Wen Shutang looked into Xiao Yizhuo's eyes and was slightly stunned.

Liu Sufen scolded, "Girl, don't do this next time. If you didn't tell me, I would still be worried. Plague is no joke. What if you get infected and something happens to you? How will your father and I survive?"

Wen Shutang stood beside Liu Sufen and obediently accepted the lesson. Seeing that Liu Sufen could still talk nonstop for an hour, Wen Shutang quickly gave Xiao Yizhuo a look for help.

Seeing Wen Shutang's eye signal, Xiao Yizhuo raised his eyebrows, walked forward, grabbed Wen Shutang's wrist, nodded and looked at Liu Sufen.

"Mother-in-law, I want to have a few words with my wife."

After saying that, he pulled Wen Shutang away. Liu Sufen didn't say anything more when she saw this. She just thought that the young couple wanted to have a private talk.

Xiao Yizhuo and Wen Shutang returned to the room, and Wen Shutang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"I knew I would be scolded when I came back..."

Before she could finish her words, she fell into a warm and solid embrace.

Wen Shutang stood there blankly, unable to react for a moment.

Xiao Yizhuo tightened his arms around Wen Shutang, rested his head on the crook of her neck and took a deep breath.

Feeling Xiao Yizhuo's strength, Wen Shutang unconsciously raised his hands and hugged him back, his voice soft and careful.

"what happened to you?"

"Madam, please don't say anything. Just let me hold you for a while." Xiao Yizhuo's voice was a little muffled, and the hot air he exhaled sprinkled on Wen Shutang's neck, making her feel a little itchy.

Hearing this, Wen Shutang hugged him back and stood there quietly.

Neither of them spoke again. Xiao Yizhuo closed his eyes and felt the real touch in his arms. His uneasy heart finally relaxed at this moment.

After a moment, Xiao Yizhuo let her go. He lowered his head, staring at her with a pair of silent black eyes, and his voice was hoarse.

"Madam, please don't leave me alone next time. I know you have the ability to solve the problem, but I don't want to see you take risks."

Wen Shutang's heart clenched, and a warm feeling spread from the bottom of his heart to the tip of his heart.

This kind of warmth cannot be expressed in words, it was so hot that she dared not breathe too heavily.

Xiao Yizhuo looked at her steadily, and said seriously: "I won't interfere with you, but I also hope that Madam doesn't have to handle everything by herself, you have me."

A smile appeared unconsciously on Wen Shutang's face. She stretched out her arms and hugged Xiao Yizhuo's neck, and answered seriously.

"I understand. Next time, I will definitely face difficulties together with you and will never let you worry about them alone."

Hearing this, the ice and snow in Xiao Yizhuo's eyes melted instantly, filled with tenderness and love. He put his arms around Wen Shutang's waist, with only her in his eyes.

The longing of many days completely burst out at this moment. Xiao Yizhuo lowered his eyes and head and kissed the delicate lips as if he was describing a treasure.

Wen Shutang tilted his head back slightly and closed his eyes, willing to indulge in the tenderness.

The ambiguous atmosphere gradually increased, Xiao Yizhuo's eyes gradually darkened, and he used his hands to lift Wen Shutang up and put him on the table.

The tips of their noses touched, and Xiao Yizhuo could even see the fine hairs on Wen Shutang's face.

Wen Shutang hugged Xiao Yizhuo's neck, her red lips slightly parted to exhale hot air, her breathing a little unstable. She raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yizhuo with a bright smile.

Xiao Yizhuo's throat tightened and he felt extremely agitated.

A pair of black eyes stared at Wen Shutang closely, and he finally suppressed the restlessness in his heart. He lowered his head and gently traced her eyebrows with his lips. His movements were gentle and full of endless tenderness.

There was a sudden knock on the door and Xiao Ye's voice was heard from outside.

"Dad, Mom, are you in there?"

Xiao Yizhuo paused and looked at Wen Shutang.

Wen Shutang opened his eyes, and whispered with a smile on his lips: "My son is outside."

She felt that Xiao Yizhuo would be concerned about Xiao Ye outside. Wen Shutang deliberately wanted to tease him, so she approached him with a smile on her face and touched the tip of his nose with her hand.

Xiao Yizhuo stared at her without blinking. Seeing her provocative look, a smile appeared on Xiao Yizhuo's lips and his voice was low.

"Ma'am, you locked the door when you came in just now."

Hearing this, Wen Shutang's smile froze on his face.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Yizhuo laughed softly. Who on earth is so lucky to have such a lovely little wife?

Xiao Yizhuo didn't do anything else. He held Wen Shutang and put her down, rubbing her head like he was coaxing a child.

"Okay, stop making trouble, let's go out."

Wen Shutang shrank his neck, his cheeks turned red unconsciously, and he felt very hot.

She coughed a few times, pretended to be calm, and followed Xiao Yizhuo out the door.

When he opened the door, he saw Xiao Ye standing outside. The moment Xiao Ye saw Wen Shutang, his eyes immediately lit up and he threw himself into her arms.

"mother!"

Wen Shutang caught him steadily, touched his head with a smile, but suddenly remembered that Xiao Yizhuo had just done the same thing to her. She subconsciously looked up at Xiao Yizhuo and found that Xiao Yizhuo was also looking at her.

Wen Shutang, who had just recovered, suddenly felt a little dry on his face again.

She quickly retracted her gaze and took Xiao Ye to another room: "Did Ah Ye miss me? Where's Wan'er? Let's go see Wan'er together."

Xiao Yizhuo looked at Wen Shutang's back and inexplicably felt a sense of escape, with endless tenderness flowing in his eyes.

Liang Yan sat in his study, looking at the letter he had already written. After thinking for a moment, he decided to send the letter to the capital.

After all, a plague broke out in his jurisdiction. Although the situation was quickly brought under control, there were still casualties. If his superiors found out that he knew about it and did not report it, that would be a disaster.

Thinking of this, Liang Yan immediately asked someone to deliver the letter. Looking at the messenger's back as he walked away, Liang Yan's face was full of solemnity.

Now he just hopes to keep his official position.

The messenger had received special training and was very fast. He delivered the letter to the capital in less than three days. He held the token given by Liang Yan and passed the letter to the higher-ups one level at a time.

After reading the contents of the letter, the prime minister hurried to the palace to ask the emperor for instructions. A plague had occurred among the people, which was a big deal and could not be delayed at all.

In the royal palace, in the royal study.

The emperor looked at the prime minister with a serious face. He had heard the prime minister talk about the outbreak of plague in Qingshui Town.

"I have already known about this matter. Prime Minister, rest assured, I will send someone to Qingshui Town immediately and will definitely not let the plague spread."

The Prime Minister nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty is wise!"

After the prime minister left, the emperor sat on the chair, closed his eyes, rubbed his eyebrows tiredly, and spoke to the empty imperial study.

"Have you found any trace of him?"

A masked man in a black robe suddenly appeared in the room where the emperor was alone.

The man's voice was hoarse and cold: "It seems that there are traces of him in Qingshui Town."
