Those who watch the night are going to suffer a lot tonight.

Although this place is located in the south of the Yangtze River, the road surface will not freeze, but it has already frozen.

Chill.

In order to fulfill his duties as a guard, Muai naturally had to sit on the frame.

The blanket Mu Lu bought on the order of the Marquis to take care of his injury came in handy now, so that he would not feel too uncomfortable while sitting here.

Another sip of hot tea is enough to temporarily drive away the cold.

He sat on the carriage, holding a sword in one hand and hot tea in the other, chatting quietly with Wen Yao.

The little girl who came to deliver hot water was sitting in the carriage.

Although the walls of the carriage blocked the night wind, they could not stop the chill, so she folded her arms and huddled up.

Originally there were two blankets in the car, but one of them was taken out for Chu He to use, and now there was still one left.

Mu Ai glanced at the girl who couldn't help but rub her hands: "Wrap it in a blanket. It will stop being cold in a while."

"No need, I will go into the house in a moment." Wen shook her head. She still had to take care of Guard Chu. What's more, it was unreasonable to leave the eldest lady there alone.

But for Muai...

Of course she couldn't let her go back so soon!After all, it was very difficult for my Lord Marquis to be alone with Miss Xu.

Although there is Chu He inside, he is half-dead right now, so it won't hinder anything.

Because of Lin Jiaoyue's incident, the eldest lady refused to pay attention to the Marquis for many days.

During those days, Mr. Hou was unhappy, and both he and Mu Lu suffered a lot.

So the two of them agreed that no matter what time, they must find ways to create opportunities for their prince!

Only when the Marquis feels comfortable can they live a good life.

Isn’t this an excellent opportunity right now?

So he rolled his eyes and sighed: "I was busy going to the village to find out the news, but I didn't eat much. I don't know if I can survive tonight."

Wen Yao was startled: "Are Vice General Ai hungry?"

Mu Ai nodded, with a hint of disappointment: "Yes, but there is nothing that can be done for this fool."

Wen Yao had a simple mind and whispered, "I know how to cook noodles, but I'm afraid I'm not as good as Sister Luo."

Seeing that she took the bait, Mu Ai was overjoyed: "I just want to fill my stomach now, so I don't care about anything else."

After saying that, he was afraid of Wen Yao's feedback, so he thanked him first: "Thank you very much, Miss Wen Yao."

Wen Yao had no doubt that he was there. After all, Vice Admiral Ai was busy for their safety just now. She was very willing to do something for him at this time.

So he put on his hood again, jumped out of the carriage, and entered the kitchen.

Mu Ai was overjoyed. He was thinking that from lighting the fire to kneading, rolling, slicing, and finally pouring and cooking the dough, it would take less than half an hour!

Being able to buy so much time for his prince, Mu Ai couldn't help but feel a little complacent.

However, after just a cup of tea, Wen Yao came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles.

Muai: "..."

This action is too fast!

Wen Yao didn't notice his surprise. She came under the carriage and carefully handed the bowl and chopsticks to Mu Ai's hands.

Then he said with a smile: "Fortunately, Sister Luo still has some noodles that she rolled out earlier, and she also left a fire under the stove! Otherwise, I'm afraid it will take a long time for this servant to make it before Vice General Ai can eat it."

Mu Ai: Sister Luo, thank you!

Mu Ai took the bowl, looked around and said, "You'd better get in the car and wait for me. It's too cold here."

Wen Yao knew that eating a bowl of noodles did take some time, so she didn't refuse. She lifted up her skirt and was about to get in the car.

But the ruts of the carriage were frozen, and the place where his feet stepped instantly slipped. Wen Yao leaned back and almost fell off the carriage.

Mu Ai quickly stretched out his hand and picked her up.

The huge inertia caused Wen Yao to throw himself into Mu Ai's arms.

Both people were stunned.

Because he had just been busy in the kitchen, Wen shook his head and blushed, with a different kind of moist luster on his cheeks.

But after being frightened out of thin air, she was like a frightened deer, her eyes widened, and she grabbed Mu Ai's collar tightly with both hands.

In the cold night, the man's breath was cold, but not unfamiliar.

When Wen Yao came to her senses, she quickly withdrew from Mu Ai's arms, her pretty face full of apologies: "I'm rude, slave."

"It doesn't matter." The warmth in his arms disappeared, leaving him with an inexplicable emptiness. Mu Ai cleared his throat, "It's dark and the roads are slippery, so let's get in the carriage first."

It's not like the two have never been close since they met.

When he was hunting in the palace, in order to create an opportunity for his Lord Marquis, he forced Wen Yao to pass by him.

The girl was stubborn and struggled desperately in his arms every time. At that time, he didn't feel any charm at all, and all he could think about was how to calm her down quickly.

This is the first time that I have been in my arms like this tonight...

Maybe he wasn't hungry, or maybe the episode just now made him forget the taste of the noodles, so Mu Ai ate the bowl of noodles very slowly.

Wen Yao was not distracted, waiting for him to clean up the dishes after he finished eating.

So he asked, "What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?"

Mu Ai shook his head and blurted out: "What you made is not delicious."

Wen Yao: "..."

For no reason, she blushed and quickly lowered her head.

Mu Ai also didn't expect how he could say such things as Meng Lang. He hurriedly explained: "I mean, since you can take good care of the eldest lady, you must be an unusual person. You can do something as simple as cooking." , naturally no more words."

"In that case, Lieutenant General Ai, let's eat it while it's hot." After Wen Yao finished speaking, he closed the car door.

Muai tastes like chewing wax and swallows a bowl of noodles cleanly.

He heard no movement in the car, so he carefully opened the door, only to find that Wen Yao had fallen asleep in the car.

After all, it’s been a tiring day and I’ve been scared for a long time.

At this time, the little girl was curled up in the corner, sleeping deeply.

sink to...

Mu Ai took the blanket from the frame into the car, spread the mats in the car, and placed Wen Yao softly on it.

After that, he took off his cloak and covered her.

She never woke up from this move.

Mu Ai smiled and shook his head.

Xu was the cloak he had just taken off, which still contained a hint of warmth. Wen Yao buried his little face in it and fell into a deeper sleep.

……

The next day, the east has not yet turned white, but the dark night has faded.

Luo Xiao climbed out of bed early.

She looked at the half-empty bed and knew that the county master must have stayed up all night.

So she hurried to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone, and also prepared some pasta for the county lord to use on the road.

She was looking forward to Guard Chu waking up.

After being frightened last night, Luo Yuqi almost slept uneasily all night. She felt sorry for her daughter and hoped to leave Yujia Village early today.

but……

Chu He is still in a coma.

Everyone had finished their breakfast.

After Shu Qing checked Chu He's pulse, he discussed: "Wei Chu didn't have a fever last night, but he still hasn't woken up. I'm worried that he is using his instinct to suppress the injury. If this is the case, it will be very easy for him to suffer backlash later."

Mu Rong asked: "Then you are still staying here today?"

Before Shu Qing could say anything, a polite voice came from outside the door: "Is your distinguished guest in the house? We, the owner of the village, invite you to come to the village and have a chat."
