The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

"Yiheng, find some thick branches nearby, about a dozen or so, and some dry straw, and we'll make a few tents. It's cool at night, and the tents can help keep out the cold." Mu Yibai gave the order after he finished eating.

The two sisters Mu Jiaojiao and Mu Linxue also offered to help.

"Then let's go find some dry branches so we can start a fire and keep warm."

Mrs. Luo took Aunt Jiang and Mrs. Liu to pick up branches nearby.

Fu Yunxi felt very strange when she saw Mu Yibai's nervous expression. She felt that he suddenly became serious tonight.

She carefully recalled the plot in the book and remembered that today was the first night of exile in the suburbs. It was tonight that Lin caught a cold and had a high fever the next day, which led to her miscarriage and even death.

But he didn't know what was going to happen tonight, so why was he nervous? Was it because they were going to sleep in the same bed tonight?

Fu Yunxi felt a little excited when she thought about this. In her previous life, she contributed a lot to the country and didn’t even have a boyfriend. She had been single since birth and had no fun at all. Now when she thinks about it, she feels how boring her past self was!

However, it is inevitable to feel a little uneasy when sleeping with a man!

"There are curtains in the package, enough to build at least two or three tents. Put some straw on the ground at night and cover yourself with a blanket. You shouldn't be cold."

Mu Yibai was indeed worried about the weather at night. On this day in his previous life, his sister-in-law fell ill and he was powerless to help. He only hoped that there would be no more such accidents in this life.

Brother Bai, is this what you are talking about? It looks pretty solid, so it shouldn’t be cold tonight.”

Luo took out the curtain and tidied it. Seeing this, Fu Yunxi felt that the villain had made preparations for a rainy day. The fabric used for the curtain was thick, like the one used when the army was stationed. In the current weather, it was enough to keep out the cold wind.

She couldn't help but wonder why Lin in the book caught a cold in the tent. Was it because of his weak body?

Thinking about it, she decided to cover them with an extra layer of quilt at night. After all, the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains was very large.

Several people were busy having fun. Mu Yibai used his inner strength to insert the thick branches into the ground three-quarters deep. The three branches relied on each other to form the skeleton of the tent.

Mu Yiheng and Liu put the curtains outside the branches, while Lin took the two little girls to spread straw in the tent, and Aunt Jiang and Fu Yunxi were responsible for making a fire.

Everyone saw that the eldest branch of the Mu family was busy all the time, but they didn't care. The weather was not that cold, so they might as well take a rest instead of doing these useless things.

The second wife of the Mu family watched from afar, and the eighth concubine smiled disdainfully.

"You really think you are a precious person. You are exiled to the suburbs, but you still set up a tent. You really think you are still the prince of the Marquisate."

These words were exactly what Mu Yiguo wanted. Although he remained expressionless, he was actually very happy in his heart.

There are old, weak and sick people in the family, so what if they don’t set up a tent!

The leading officer said to the younger brother beside him, "Look at this Mu Yibai, he is quite foresighted. No wonder he has made many outstanding achievements since he entered the military camp at the age of twelve. Although his legs are disabled, his brain is useful."

"You are right. Although the weather is not cold now, sleeping in the suburbs at night is unbearable for most people. However, his tent is similar to ours. We can also use branches and curtains to build tents in the future, which can also reduce the burden of luggage."

The officer next to him quickly agreed. He felt that Mu Yibai's tent was very convenient and not as bulky as theirs.

Luo and others worked hard and finally set up three tents, and everyone sat by the fire.

Anyway, it was convenient to do anything inside the tent, so Fu Yunxi took out some food from the space.

Mu Yibai and Fu Yunxi drank hot wine together, while Lin was drinking milk. However, everyone still preferred the spiritual spring water because it made them feel refreshed and their fatigue would dissipate like the wind.

Fu Yunxi stared at the three tents in front of her, she was stunned, she thought, Mu Yiheng always slept with Liu, maybe she would sleep with Mu Yibai? But the two of them hadn't finished the wedding ceremony, if she took the initiative, would she seem unreserved?

"Yunxi, I have a thin quilt here, please take it into the tent." Mu Yibai said softly. In fact, he was hinting Fu Yunxi to put a quilt in the tent. He also prepared a thin quilt, and there was one in her space. In this way, she could make a quilt and cover herself with it, so that she could sleep more comfortably.

"Okay, then you watch the potatoes and make sure they don't burn."

Mu Yibai looked at Fu Yunxi's bright smile, and a corner of his heart suddenly became soft. The life at this moment seemed to be their normal state, as if they were already an old couple, as if their previous life had never really happened.

Fu Yunxi walked into the tent and began to tidy up. She was worried that Lin would catch a cold as described in the book, so she laid two thick quilts in the big tent, while the other two tents only had one layer of quilts.

As night falls, the temperature drops sharply.

The Wang family also lit a fire to keep warm because they had a two-month-old child.

When the other families saw the tent of the Mu family's main house, they couldn't help but feel envious.

But it was dark now and they couldn't imitate them in setting up a tent. They could only pick up some dead wood nearby and buy a fire starter from the official. The whole family gathered around the small fire to keep warm.

Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Luo, Aunt Jiang, Mrs. Lin and the two little girls slept in the big tent in the middle.

Mu Yiheng and Liu slept in a smaller tent next to them.

Fu Yunxi and Mu Yibai were left staring at each other. In the end, it was Mu Yibai who spoke first: "It's getting late, go in and rest."

The remaining firelight illuminated the man's face. His jawline was clear, his eyebrows were thick and long, and his eyes were deep. He exuded charming masculine charm everywhere. Fu Yunxi couldn't help blushing and hurried into the tent. "Come in quickly, I have something to tell you."

In this quiet night, who knows who touched whose heartstrings. Fu Yunxi was fascinated by Mu Yibai, and Mu Yibai's heart was pounding, looking at her eyes staring at him through the firelight, as if he was her whole world.

He actually felt a little nostalgic at that moment!
