The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

"Xier, can I have a mirror?" Luo Shi had hardly looked in the mirror since she was exiled. Originally, it was because everyone was covered in dust and dirt during the exile, so there was no need to look in the mirror. But after settling down, she had never looked in the mirror, because every time she looked at her face in the mirror, she would think of Aiguo and every little thing they had done in the past.

But now it’s different. After they move in and truly settle down, she wants to live with her patriotic belief!

"Of course! I'll get you a luxurious dressing table later. The mirror will be able to reflect your true appearance. It will be different from those sold on the market. I'll put it in your room." Fu Yunxi readily agreed. The bronze mirrors used in that era were not clear and could not reflect a person's true appearance.

"No, an ordinary one will do. I'm used to it." In the past, Aiguo would help her to braid her hair and draw her eyebrows when she was at home, so the mirror carries many memories of them. She wanted the kind of bronze mirror that she usually uses, just to keep a memory!

"Grandma, Mother, I will discuss something with you later."

After everyone discussed the moving matters, Mu Yibai asked Jiang and Luo to stay in the main room, and the others returned to their rooms.

"Xi'er, I want to talk to my mother and the others briefly. You go back to your room first, I'll be back soon."

"Okay, I'm going to wash up first."

Fu Yunxi guessed what Mu Yibai wanted to talk to Jiang and the others about, so she didn't ask any more questions.

But Mrs. Luo didn't know what her son was going to say, and was still wondering why he avoided talking to Xier.

"What do you mean? Why can't you talk to Xier about this?"

"That's right. After marriage, the couple should discuss things together. Why did you send Xier away?"

As soon as everyone left, Mu Yibai was accused by Jiang and Luo, and he was helpless.

"Grandma, mother, please don't be angry, just listen to me.

I plan to invite people from the village to my house for dinner after the house is built, and make it into a wedding banquet.

On the day Xier got married into our family, the emperor's edict arrived and the complete ceremony could not be held.

So I want to make up for it in Mojia Village, so that Xier won’t have any regrets.”

As soon as Fu Yunxi finished speaking, Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Jiang were very happy.

"This is a great event for you, my child. It's my fault that I didn't think it through before. I blame you."

The marriage of her children should have been handled by Luo, the mother, but she forgot about it.

Suddenly, guilt surged in her heart, mainly because she had already regarded Fu Yunxi as her daughter-in-law and as a family member, which was beyond doubt.

"We will definitely have to hold a wedding banquet, but you said it too hastily and we haven't prepared yet."

"Don't worry, grandma. I have already prepared everything. I wanted to tell you about this today while we are moving."

Mu Yibai had already started preparations. Ever since he realized his feelings during his exile, he had been thinking about what kind of wedding banquet to give Fu Yunxi.

In fact, he might have already been deeply attracted to Fu Yunxi, but he just hadn't realized it yet.

"Then how do we solve the problem of wedding dresses? Xier has been so busy lately that she doesn't have time to embroider, right?"

Generally, women will sew their own wedding dresses before getting married and wear them to get into the sedan chair.

"When we were making masks for epidemic prevention, she said she didn't like needlework, and I didn't want her to be tired, so on the second day after we settled in Lianjiang County, I went to the largest embroidery studio in the county to find an embroiderer to order a wedding dress. I think it will be finished in two days, and we will wear it then."

Mu Yibai kept every word of Fu Yunxi in mind. The needlework of wedding dresses was already complicated and intricate.

He couldn't bear to see his wife doing things she didn't like for him.

"Okay, since you have made all the arrangements, let's go door to door in the village and invite the villagers to the wedding!"

Mrs. Luo has begun to look forward to marrying a good daughter-in-law like Fu Yunxi, which is truly a blessing from her ancestors.

In the future, they will live in harmony with each other and have a chubby grandson. I wonder how happy their life will be!

"Okay, you guys need to take care of this main thing, I will take care of the rest."

Mu Yibai had everything ready, but it would be more appropriate for the elders in the family to invite the guests.

"No problem! Let's invite all the villagers from Mojia Village and hold a lively wedding banquet!"

Mu Yibai is naturally looking forward to his wedding day!

There were only a few items that needed to be moved out of the old house, as it was originally intended to be a temporary residence and not many new items were purchased.

All the furniture in the new house is brand new. Fu Yunxi selected and arranged them according to everyone's preferences.

In this way, everyone has an independent room, even the two little girls Jiaojiao and Lin Hua are no exception.

However, considering that Lin was in the late stage of pregnancy and could not be left alone for a moment, Jiaojiao Lin Hua would sleep in the same room with her for the time being.

“This house is really spacious and bright, and the light inside the house is also excellent.”

Jiang felt that the new home was more comfortable than their previous residence.

"Yes! This was all carefully planned and designed by Bai Ge'er and Xi'er. Even the window paper is different from before."

Aunt Jiang also liked this kind of clean and bright atmosphere. She felt much happier when she was in it.

"Once the old house in front is demolished, the light here will be even better. The windows were all selected by Xier, and they have excellent warmth retention in winter."

Mu Yibai participated in the entire construction of the house, and every brick and tile bears his mark.

He hopes that his family can enjoy life in their warm and comfortable new home!

"Yes, this winter may be quite difficult, and everyone needs to be prepared to stay indoors. We will prepare winter supplies in advance, and then we will spend the New Year together in our new home!"

Fu Yunxi reminded everyone that this winter they might encounter an extremely cold storm, which would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for the Great Zhao Kingdom.

"Are we not going out this winter? What will happen to the wine workshops and hot pot restaurants?"

Aunt Jiang was not unable to accept not going out in winter. After all, the whole family lived together, so it didn't matter whether she went out or not.

But is it possible that the workshop and restaurant that Fu Yunxi had just opened will have to close down in the winter?

"Everyone should be able to notice the unusual weather this year, so we are very likely to face an unprecedented cold winter. The temperature will drop sharply, and there will probably be no one on the streets. Therefore, our workshops and restaurants will be closed for the time being."

Fu Yunxi was doing everything according to plan. She had only run these two businesses before the New Year. She could simply suspend business during the winter and reopen it in the spring of next year. There wouldn't be any impact.

"Okay, I'll listen to Xier. We'll start stockpiling supplies for the winter."

Aunt Jiang understood what Fu Yunxi meant.

"Xi'er, what do you think about us starting to sew winter clothes now? We have nothing to do anyway, so it's always good to make a few extra ones as backup."

Mrs. Luo had already kept her son's words in mind. He said Fu Yunxi didn't like needlework, so these chores would be done by them. Jiaojiao and Lin Hua could also help. They would definitely be able to make a few sets before winter came.

"I still have some winter clothes. It would be nice if I could make a few new ones. I'll go find some animal furs later. They'll be very warm to wear."

Fu Yunxi's space has a lot of ready-made clothes, as well as a lot of cloth and cotton. She originally planned to use the feathers of wild ducks and other animals in the deep mountains of the space to imitate a down jacket, but she is not very good at needlework. Now that Luo mentioned this, it would be better to let them do it. The finished product will definitely be better.

"Don't worry, Xier! We can make a few sets before winter comes."

"Okay, you can also tell Aunt Mo and the others tactfully later that I plan to discuss closing the workshop with the head of the village during the autumn harvest. It's always a good idea for everyone to stock up early, otherwise materials like cotton and charcoal will likely become scarce resources."

Fu Yunxi was thinking at this time, the old county magistrate must not let him down! With so many kapok seeds, if the harvest is good and they are all put into the market, there will definitely be enough for Lianjiang County.
