Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

The Liu family rested until the fourth day of the New Year, and on the fifth day they went to the vermicelli workshop to make sweet potato flour and potato flour.

There was no way they didn't go home because the workers living in the workshop had already started working earlier than them.

Many families in the village also started plowing the fields after the fourth day of the New Year. Now that everyone has an income, many people have bought farm tools. Several families pooled together to buy a cow, and there are already quite a few cows in the village.

The workshop was busy until the day before the Lantern Festival. Liu Yuhan brought a few girls to prepare several tables of delicious food for everyone and also taught them how to make dumplings so that they could make and eat them during the Lantern Festival tomorrow.

Liu Shinan, his wife, and their children have been back from Haiyu Island for two days.

Old Lady Jiang and Mrs. Li helped Liu Yang prepare for his departure. Fearing the cold weather, they brought him a few extra thick cotton-padded jackets and a few pairs of thick cotton shoes.

In addition to preparing basic medicine for him, Liu Yuhan also fried some dry noodles and some dried meat, which were packaged into two portions.

From the space, I took out two pairs of high-top, velvet, unmarked thick-soled waders, up to size 45. When it rained, I told him to wear them inside so no one could see them. I also took out two large, single-person raincoats. These things were for him and his master.

Liu Yang put the things away, indicating that he understood. He refused to accept the banknotes, and hadn't spent a cent of the last one. He even gave his military pay back to his grandmother. Old Lady Jiang gave the money to Li, asking her to save it for Liu Yang, as he would eventually marry.

On the afternoon of the Lantern Festival, they had lunch early and went to the county town, planning to enjoy the lanterns in the evening. If it was too late, they would sleep in the county town. They now had two shops, so they had no worries about where to sleep.

The county town is more lively tonight than last year because Changle County was ranked first. County Magistrate Zhu even beat drums and gongs and posted notices to let the people of Changle County know about this.

In the harvest year, there are more lanterns hung, the atmosphere is more lively, and there are more vendors setting up stalls.

The Liu family went to Yang Nianhua’s shop first. It was the first time for the two old people to visit their shop.

Yang Nianhua and his wife opened the shop on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. The shop was full of people and some were queuing for noodles. Yang Nianhua and his wife were busy with their two children.

"Dad and Mom, you're all here. There's no room left. Why don't you go sit in the backyard first? I'll cook noodles for you later."

"Mom and Dad, come in and sit down."

"Nianhua, we've already eaten, you go about your business."

"Aunt, uncle, let's come to help." Liu Yuhan took Liu Yao and Liu Yun to help after washing their hands.

Seeing that there were too many of them and afraid that they would block the entrance, Old Lady Jiang asked Liu Shihu and the others to go somewhere nearby first.

With the addition of several beautiful girls, their business became better, and many young men came for Liu Yuhan.

The night of the Lantern Festival, the night of viewing lanterns, is also tacitly considered as the night for confession...

Liu Yuhan was dressed in a new pale green dress, draped over a thickened cape of the same color. She stood tall and graceful. Although she wore no makeup, her lips were red, her teeth were white, and her skin was as white as cream. She was breathtakingly beautiful. She had grown a bit in the past two years and measured 166cm in the room.

Some unmarried young regulars bravely asked Yang Nianhua and Liu Yuhan if they were ready to get married. Where was the girl from? Was she from the same village as Yang Nianhua?

Yang Nianhua didn't know how to answer, and ran to secretly ask Mrs. Jiang. Mrs. Jiang looked serious, but she was very happy inside. Her eldest granddaughter was first-class and these guys were very discerning.

"Sister, the man behind you has been staring at you. I want to beat him up." Liu Yao said to her sister in a low voice.

"Come in as a guest, just ignore me."

"Oh, some of them have even asked my uncle. It seems my sister will be proposed to soon after she reaches the age of 15."

"Mind your work, don't burn yourself."

The eyes are on others, so what can you do if they want to look at you? Besides, Liu Yuhan often went to the county town and the prefectural city, and had long been accustomed to such gazes.

The sky darkened and the ingredients prepared for today were used up, so we had to close the shop.

Many people went to the moat to enjoy the lanterns.

The Liu family took a walk and returned to the shop. They sat in the shop and chatted. Liu Lu took Liu Guang, Yang Rong and Yang Zhi to the room to discuss the question types. After all, they would soon take the Tongsheng exam.

Yang Nianhua explained the family situations of the young men who had inquired about him. These men were regular customers at his shop, cheerful and lively, full of youthful energy. One of them was even a scholar. From their chat messages and their attire, it was clear that they all came from well-off families.

Family background wasn't what Old Lady Jiang cared about most. She was most concerned about the character of these people, the family situation, and, most importantly, whether her eldest granddaughter was worthy of her.

Liu Yuhan was sitting next to them and talking to his eldest brother. Although they deliberately lowered their voices, the sound was still faintly heard. Even if Liu Yuhan and Liu Yang wanted to pretend not to hear it, they couldn't.

"Xiaohan, no way?"

"It's just as you think. Big brother, you haven't even gotten married yet, so why should I be so anxious, right?"

"Xiao Han, I didn't see anyone just now. Are they with my master?"

"Your master? What does your master have to do with it?"

"I mean, you're so good that you deserve someone better. At least someone as good and powerful as Master."

"What are you talking about, big brother? Don't say anything nonsense. Your master might be engaged and have a lover. It would be bad if someone heard it."

"No. Master said he's not engaged. He said he's waiting for the person he wants to be with for the rest of his life... Master is weird and I don't really understand him."

"Oh."

"Xiao Han, don't agree so easily. Stay at home for two more years. Master is very knowledgeable and I will ask him to introduce you to a good one."

"Brother...should I tell Grandma that you want to get married now?"

"Okay, I won't say anything anymore."

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

On his eighteenth day, Liu Yang rode alone to the provincial capital with his luggage on his back, watched by his family members who were reluctant to let him go.

When they arrived at the tent, Liu Yang took out a portion of the things Liu Yuhan had prepared and gave them to Huo Dong.

He had something to say in his heart and looked at his master hesitantly.

"But do you have something to say?"

Huo Dong carefully touched the rain boots and raincoat he had never seen before, and his heart was filled with ecstasy!

She treated him differently from others. She was willing to give these things to him because she trusted him and knew he would not say anything nonsense.

Why is this apprentice standing there? He's interrupting his reading. Seeing his expression, I couldn't help but ask.

"Master, do you know? Someone came to the village yesterday and proposed marriage to my sister! I was so angry. My sister hasn't even reached the age of marriage yet! He also said that we can wait. Didn't they just meet my sister on the night of the Lantern Festival? How can they be so shameless? Damn..."

"What! Met? Proposed marriage?"

Liu Yang automatically ignored his master's slightly anxious face and started talking about the night of the Lantern Festival and the marriage proposal he had made yesterday.

Barabara...

Huo Dong frowned, and suddenly felt uncomfortable...
