Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

Huo Dong took the soap and perfumed soap home. He kept one bar of each color for himself and gave the rest to Aunt Fu to distribute to her family.

He sat in the study, carefully unpacked the soap, stroked the words on the paper, smelled the fragrance of the soap, and stared at the soaps of different colors in a trance.

He must have been exposed today without realizing it. Auntie seemed to have noticed something and was on guard against him...

He felt bitter inside.

Normal families would not want their daughters to marry into the Wu family.

After all, who would want their daughter to stay alone in an empty house, waiting for her husband who may be in danger or even die on the battlefield at any time?

He had wanted to wait until she grew up and came of age before confessing his feelings to her. But at this moment, he hesitated...

...............................

The family specially arranged to have dinner in Huo Dong's yard. Only the four siblings were eating, as General Huo had gone to the military camp.

Huo Dong specifically told his brothers and sisters that he was going to the capital and asked them not to leave the house without permission. He would be back before his grandfather's 70th birthday.

When he and his grandfather were not at home, he would go to the housekeeper Huo Tian or Aunt Fu if he had any problems.

The siblings nodded to show that they understood.

Seeing that they were depressed, Huo Dong wanted to say something to them, but suddenly he didn't know what to say.

After dinner, Huo Nan went to take a shower with a sweaty body. He had gained a lot of weight recently due to his greed. Huo Dong's requirements for him became more and more strict, causing the usually most active person to eat without making a sound.

Huo Dong sat down in the yard with his younger brother and sister-in-law, and asked Madam Fu for the latest physical history of Huo Bei written by the court physician Zhang Taiyi, and inquired about Huo Bei's diet and sleep. Huo Bei ate very little for dinner today, only a little bit of steamed pumpkin, which was given to him by Liu Yuhan last time.

Huo Dong thought about what Doctor Zhang said to him last night, and felt very uncomfortable looking at his increasingly thin face. He had to go to the capital to make other efforts to help him find medicine. He had to leave his grandfather and he was not around. What would happen to these children?

"Brother, sister, Xiaobei, can you smell me? Do I smell good?"

Huo Nan, with wet hair, approached the three of them.

"Aunt Fu, where did this fragrant sister-in-law come from? It smells so good. It feels so comfortable after taking a bath."

"Oh my little ancestor! How come you came out with wet hair? Where is Huo Jiu? How did he take care of you?"

"Hey, it's okay. I ran over here and he was still looking for a headscarf to wipe my hair."

As soon as he finished speaking, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old came running over in a hurry with a towel.

"Sit down quietly." Huo Dong glared at Huo Nan.

Huo Nan sat down obediently, and Huo Jiu helped him wipe his hair with a towel.

"This soap smells really good, it has a floral scent, perfect for a girl's home. You'll definitely like it, sister. Aunt Fu, please leave a few more pieces for me."

"Xiaobei, does second brother smell good?" Huo Nan moved closer to Huo Bei.

"Mm, second brother smells so good, it smells so good, it must be the scent of osmanthus."

"It should be," said Hoshi.

"Second Young Master, the fragrant soap was brought back by the eldest young master. There's only one piece for each person. I wonder where the eldest young master bought it from?"

"This is the scented soap made by the Liu family. We'll also be selling it in the Huo Mansion's sundry shop in the future. If you need it, just ask Huo Er. He'll be at the Liu family tomorrow. Aunt Fu, you can take a few extra pieces for your own use."

"Thank you, young master."

"Brother, is this the Liu family who can fry meatballs and braise meat? Is this the Liu family you brought back the dried meat from last time? Wow, that dried meat was so delicious! It's a pity that it's all gone."

"Brother, I also want to go to the Liu family to play. Please give me two days off. I promise not to eat too much and control my body shape. I will go with Huo Er tomorrow, okay? I promise to be obedient."

"I think you're just after this mouth. It's rude to go to someone else's house rashly."

"Brother, Xiaobei and I both like to eat the vegetables from the Liu family. Otherwise, let my second brother go. Let my second brother go to the Liu family to buy some vegetables. Didn't my brother say that their family has other delicious crops? Can we buy them back together?" Huo Xi said to Huo Dong.

His sister is so obedient that she rarely pleads for Huo Nan.

He sent someone to redeem his mother's belongings that they had pawned last time that same day.

He felt bad, wondering if his brother and sister-in-law had forgotten their mother, or if this was a protest from them because they lacked love.

Huo Nan looked at Huo Dong eagerly, blinking his big eyes, like a pitiful little boy. Huo Dong was so angry that he almost laughed.

"Then you better behave yourself and stay behind Huo Er. Don't wander around. Be polite when you meet the Liu family, okay?"

"Yeah, I get it, brother. I promise to be obedient."

"Sister, Xiaobei, when I come back from Fulai Village, I will bring you some delicious food and tell you about the things I've seen and heard in the village. I haven't been to the village yet."

.......................................

One horse-drawn carriage, eight ox-drawn carts, and 48 people, with their luggage spread out and seated, drove towards Fulai Village. Some of the guards driving the carriages had been to Fulai Village before.

Huo Er and Huo Nan, each leading a horse, were waiting for Liu Yuhan and her daughter at the entrance of the alley.

The mother and daughter drove out in a carriage, and the master would not go back to the village with them for the time being. He would wait until A Fei got married.

"Madam, Miss Xiaohan is well. This is the second young master of the Huo family."

Huo Nan suppressed the expression on his face and bowed respectfully to the mother and daughter.

"Hello, Auntie, hello, Sister Xiaohan. My name is Huo Nan, you can call me Xiao Nan. I'm sorry to bother you by coming uninvited. My younger brother loves your vegetables, and I've already told my brother that I'd like to go with you to Fulai Village. Could you please come?"

"Xiaonan, there's no need to be so polite. Just come with us."

"Hello, Xiaonan, you can call me Sister Han. Welcome to our home."

Liu Yuhan recognized Huo Nan's face.

Isn't this the man who was in the conversation between the two siblings on the second floor of the Fucheng Bookstore? This sturdy little guy is actually Huo Dong's younger brother!

He looked about the same age as Liu Guang and Liu Lu, but he was stockier, with a chubby face. When he spoke loudly, he had two deep dimples. Despite his chubby face, his eyes were large, bright, and pure. He even had a widow's peak on his forehead, a typical three-part, five-eye face.

If Huo Dong is the most handsome representative, then Huo Nan is the representative of the cute little ones.

This kind of child makes people feel that he is a very blessed child.

The other person who talked to him that day was his biological sister. Huo Nan said that he had a younger brother, who should be the youngest brother.

It’s such a small world.

Liu Yuhan couldn't help but smile when she thought of the conversation between the two siblings that day.

At that time, this kid kept saying that his brother would beat him up. She thought his brother was very fierce, but it turned out to be Huo Dong! Is this brother so scared that even his younger siblings are afraid of him?

But think about it: they lost their parents and grandmother at a young age. Their grandfather and older brother were in the military, so it's a sad situation. Their older brother was strict with them from a young age, so it's understandable that they were a bit respectful of him.
