Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

Liu Guang, Liu Lu, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu would come back from school every day and tell them what knowledge the teacher had taught them, what stories the teacher had told them, and what inspirations they got from them.

Liu Yang, Liu Guang and Liu Lu have already been privately revealed the true identity of their mother (aunt) by the adults in their family.

Liu and her second brother inquired about the procedures of the imperial examination system.

She briefly explained to Liu Guang and Liu Lu what she knew about the imperial examination process. For example, what books should be read? What should be known?

These are also what (grandfather and uncle) want to tell them, hoping that they can study hard. If they choose to take the imperial examination, they must have firm confidence and change their learning attitude and strategy from now on.

Grandfather and uncle also made an outline for them and copied the essays from previous years' imperial examinations for them to read. Liu Yuhan also collected quite a few of them. Liu Yuhan was interested in these essays. Although he felt that the classical Chinese was difficult to read, it was very profound.

Liu Guang and Liu Lu were both determined to take the imperial examination, especially Liu Lu. He had loved reading since he was a child, had a strong comprehension ability, and had a great passion for reading.

Now that he knew his mother's identity, the identities of his grandfather, uncle and others, as well as what his sister had said to him in private, he became more determined to study hard and take the imperial examination. He also hoped to protect his family in the future.

From that day on, he seemed to have a clear direction in his mind, and he worked harder and more focused.

Liu Yun was interested in medicine. Liu Yuhan had given her a collection of herbs to memorize, and had also taught her how to identify the herbs they bought at home. He had also asked her to follow him as he studied medicine at home with his master. "Take your time," he said.

After raising her for nearly a year, the child's health has become almost the same as that of a normal child. The whole family is happy for her, especially Liu Shihu and his wife, who are even more grateful to their niece. Now that their daughter is studying medicine with their niece, they are naturally willing.

Liu Yao has a rather lively personality, doesn't like being restrained, has poor concentration, and isn't very talented in martial arts. Apart from practicing self-defense with her mother and sister, she's unwilling to learn any more techniques, no matter how tiring it is.

It seems that she hasn't found anything that she really likes enough to keep her focused and quiet.

Since returning from the island, Grandma Qin has spent at least half an hour after dinner every day teaching Liu Yuhan, Liu Yao, and Liu Yun some manners and behaviors that ladies of noble families should learn.

Aside from Liu Yao's poop-twirling skills, Liu Yuhan and Liu Yun were quite serious about it. You don't know until you learn. Just eating, sitting, walking, and talking, there's so much knowledge and rules involved.

Liu Yuhan was amazed.

No wonder everyone laughed at Granny Liu when she entered the Grand View Garden. The ancients attached great importance to etiquette and filial piety.

Liu Yang is now becoming more and more experienced in "composting" and "practicing martial arts". Whenever Master Huo Dong comes over, he pesters him to practice non-stop, always wanting to squeeze something out of him.

During the day, he either focuses on "composting" or practices martial arts. He is already 16 years old, and he heard that the capital city recruits soldiers every autumn, so he wants to follow his master to join the army!

But he didn't dare tell his family now. He was the eldest grandson in the family, and his family wanted to arrange a marriage for him. They didn't know if they could let him do many things, but he didn't want to get married. He just wanted to join the army.

His master once told him not to think too much. If he wanted to join the army, he should first strengthen his body and then fight for things in the future.

Since he couldn't find anyone in the village who was at the same level as him to practice martial arts with, he went to find Village Chief Lin and others. These retired veterans liked Liu Yang's energy very much and welcomed him to come and exchange martial arts with them.

Liu Yang practiced martial arts tirelessly every day to prepare for his future military service. Currently, he only dared to talk about this with his master and his sister, Liu Yuhan.

Liu Shihu has a lot to do. In addition to following his father to check on the crops in the sand fields and rice fields every day, he also leads his apprentices in making wooden box molds needed for soap.

Make more so that you don’t have to rush when you need to expand production in the future.

Apprentices were paid by the number of pieces they made. A regular wooden box cost two coins, while a carved one cost four coins. Once they completed a certain number, they were considered a good enough worker. The wooden boxes could be reused.

Liu Shinan's job is very diverse. He is the owner of a workshop, chicken farm and pig farm. He goes wherever the need arises, to the pig farm, chicken farm, workshop, rice fields and sand fields. He has to coordinate what is needed and what is lacking, or go to the county town or town to buy them.

He usually brings Liu Laizi and Xu Fugui with him.

Sometimes when there is really no time, I ask them to go shopping together. We have a bullock cart at home, so it is convenient to go out.

I really don't have time to pick up a group of kids, so they can walk back by themselves in the afternoon. Ten miles is not far, and they can walk back in less than half an hour.

In addition to being responsible for the family's three meals a day, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Li, and Grandma Qin also have to cooperate with Liu Yuhan's work. For example, Liu Yuhan wants to make facial masks and try to make medicine. These preliminary work all require help.

There's also the soap workshop, where they have to prepare the daily ingredients the night before. There's so much going on, and sometimes it's just too much to handle.

Old Mrs. Qin mainly takes care of the vegetable garden in the backyard with her two little granddaughters. As there are more and more workers in the house, she wants to grow more vegetables. If there is not enough space for growing vegetables, she will clear some space and ask her eldest granddaughter for the seeds. Anyway, she has basically planted all the space she has, and she has also planted all the space in this dynasty.

I also take Liu Yao and Liu Yun to help clean the house.

The flowers picked by the villagers, the firewood carried by them, the bamboo baskets for soap made by the old man, the honey collected by the hunters, etc., are all checked and put away by Old Lady Qin and her two granddaughters, and they will pay for them if there are no problems.

Liu Yuhan went to the county town to exchange a lot of copper coins for her. When her family was free, they strung the 10 copper coins together to make it easier to pay.

My family is so busy that they don't have any personal time. There's no such thing as hiring a nanny these days, unless we hire one. But do we really need to hire one? Liu Yuhan is considering the feasibility of this.

Now the facial mask workshops and pharmaceutical workshops have not been established yet, but everyone is already very busy and will not have time to do these things in the future.

Plus, the potatoes and sweet potatoes will be ripe in two months, so there will be a lot of work in Sha Tin. After Sha Tin, the rice fields will be harvested, and after the rice fields, the soybeans and peanuts can be picked. Corn is the last one on the list.

After the rice fields are harvested, they need to rush to plant crops. By then, the villagers will also be busy and it will be difficult to find so many people.

Manpower is needed everywhere.

The 19 long-term workers they hired were far from enough to handle the work, and the staff at the pig farm and chicken farm could not be moved, so there were not many people.

It seems that we can only build another row of residential houses next to the workshop.

The three workshops have a total of three acres of flat land available. Currently, only one acre is used to build the workshops, which is more than enough to build houses. One acre is reserved for building residential houses, and the other acre is kept vacant for use.

It would be better to separate the living area from the workshop with a wall. The living area and the work area should be separated to avoid chaos. Fortunately, the place is large enough for them to plan.

Liu Yuhan did what he thought and said hello to his family. Liu Shinan said that he would go find Niu Gongshen and others to repair the house tomorrow, and ask the villagers to help while it was not the busy farming season, and it would be built soon.

The master said that he would go back to the Deji Hall in the city to work tomorrow.

It has been almost a month, and Liu Yuhan has been learning how to take pulses and prescribe medicine from him.

Uh, I wonder if the small courtyard they rented in the capital city is covered in dust.

Liu Yuhan and her mother will go to the provincial capital tomorrow to study medicine and buy people.

If you are in a hurry to recruit people, you can live in the chicken farm first. There are 15 rooms there in total. Except for the two couples who occupy two rooms, the remaining six people occupy two rooms, and there are 6 rooms left.

Liu Yuhan asked Liu Yao to go with her. She did not forget her promise to her sister to take her to the provincial capital.

"Sister, you go with mom. I won't go this time. I'm too busy at home. I also need to check the things sent from the village with grandma."

"Yaoyao is so good. When we have more staff at home in a while, everyone will not be so busy. I will take you to the provincial capital to play again. I will bring you delicious food and fun things when I go home." Liu Yuhan pinched Liu Yao's little face.

"Well, sister, can you tell Grandma Qin that we won't learn the rules while you're not at home?" Liu Yao said bitterly with a frown.

The whole family laughed.
