Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

The fragrance of rice flowers heralds a good harvest. It is the autumn harvest season again, and the Liu family courtyard is very lively.

Liu Yuhan took a few children back to Fulai Village for a short stay.

After lunch, the adults sat in the yard, sorting the potatoes and sweet potatoes they had harvested, while a group of children played in the yard.

Huo Anyu and Huo Anran are already six years old, and Huo Anheng and Huo Anjie are three years old. They are at the age of being active. The two of them run behind their cousins. In addition to Liu Yang's children, there are also Liu Guang's children, and Liu Yao's pair of children.

Huo Anyu followed his two younger brothers and cousins helplessly, fearing that they would fall.

Huo Anran sat beside Liu Yuhan, reading a book as if no one was around. Liu Yuhan felt a little helpless. Huo Anran had been very lively as a child, but since last year, she had become more stable and had a particular fondness for reading. She and her brother had inherited Liu Yuhan's photographic memory.

The two of them often discussed the contents and characters in books like little adults, and Liu Yuhan would read them some travel stories and biographies.

"Sister Han, Xiaoyu is really sensible." Old Mrs. Jiang smiled and talked to Liu Yuhan while busy with the work in her hands.

"Well, grandma, this child has been a relief to me since he was young. He really is like a big brother."

"Sister Han, I really envy you." He Qingchuan sighed.

"Xiao Tie is so naughty that even his sister is becoming more and more wild."

"Qingchuan, it's good for them to be like this, lively and vivid." Liu Yuhan said to the worried Qingchuan with a smile.

Xiao Tie inherited his father Liu Yang's strength; he was sturdy and robust, possessing immense strength from a young age. Whenever he returned to the village, he would lead a group of younger villagers to follow him up the mountain to catch birds and down the river to catch fish, a feat impossible to oversee. Liu Daling's legs were nearly broken from running around, and Old Lady Jiang had to intervene to keep them in check.

Because of this incident, many elderly people in the village came to the Liu family to complain. It was really dangerous for such a young child to play by the river.

As a grandfather, Liu Shihu would naturally prepare a meal of stir-fried bamboo shoots and pork for his eldest grandson after his mother had taken care of the younger one. After Xiaotie was taken care of by his grandfather, He Qingchuan would have another meal in private.

Xiaotie wasn't afraid of being beaten, didn't hold grudges, and always had a cheerful smile. He wasn't just taller than his peers, but despite his mischievous nature, he was also honest and kind, and very filial to the adults in his family. He was exactly like Liu Yang as a child. Liu Yuhan favored this eldest nephew, always making him some snacks to comfort him.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu Guang rested for an hour at home at noon, and then went to the village school to teach.

After passing the examination for the title of scholar, Liu Guang did not continue to take the exam. His eldest brother was away from home all year round, and Liu Lu, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were all away. There were elderly people at home, so he was willing to stay at home.

He is now a teacher in the village and has married Mr. Zhang's niece through his introduction. Liu Guang and his wife now focus their energy on the school and their family. They have two sons and two daughters.

"Grandma, Mom, Auntie, Sister-in-law, Sister, Jiang Cheng and I are going to the farm to do the final accounts at the end of the month." Liu Yao greeted them.

"Okay. When you come back from the county town, let's see if there's any sea fish for sale. Your sister and sister-in-law love to eat it."

"Okay, grandma."

"Yao'er, are you tired? Can you handle it?" Liu Yuhan asked.

"Sister, it's okay. I can handle it. I'm training a new group of people now, and Jiang Cheng will help too."

"That's good. My brother-in-law is very attentive. You should learn from him."

"I understand, sister. Then you can help look after Xiaoduo and Xiaowei."

"Don't worry, there are so many adults at home." Old Mrs. Jiang replied.

Liu Yao and Liu Guang's classmate Jiang Cheng got married.

Jiang Cheng was an orphan, and the Liu family had bought them a new house at the end of the village. Liu Yao and his wife usually busied themselves with the village workshop and other matters related to the village in Changle County.

Jiang Cheng endured much hardship in his youth, and he possessed a calm, attentive, and independent character. That same year, he and Liu Guang passed the imperial examinations, and upon being invited to Liu Guang's home, he fell in love with the cheerful and lively Liu Yao. Later, he shamelessly visited Liu Guang, even helping him teach at the school and staying at his home for a while.

Liu Yao gradually began to like and accept this young man. Later, the adults decided to settle them down and get married in Fulai Village.

Jiang Cheng cherished his current life and was very grateful to the Liu family. They had been very kind to Liu Yao for five years, and they had a pair of children.

At night, Liu Shinan and his wife returned to their room. Liu Shinan took out a crystal clear pearl bracelet from a small box and put it on his wife.

"Is my wife pretty? I spent years collecting these. Do you like them?"

Liu looked at Liu Shinan's face that was in urgent need of praise, and felt warm and funny in her heart.

"It's very beautiful, I like it very much."

"That's good. Wife, I want..."

"You're old, you should take it easy..."

"How could that be? My wife is so beautiful, and I'm not old. I'm in good health. Wife, how about giving it a try?" Liu Shinan picked up Liu and walked towards the bed...

At the same time, a similar scene unfolded for Liu Shihu and his wife. Liu Shihu, now skilled at handicrafts, crafted a hairpin for his wife using fine black wood, carving her favorite plum blossom on the top.

Li is quite satisfied with his current life. His three children are now married and have their own wonderful families. The Liu family built a small courtyard for Liu Yang and Liu Guang's families in the back of the previously reserved yard.

Li looked at Liu Shihu's silly smile and meekly helped him undress...

She was so lucky in her life. She had wise old people, a husband who treated her well, filial children, and now lovely grandchildren. Those difficult days, those days of fleeing famine, were gone forever. Her life was so good.

Xiaosi passed the examination for the title of Tongsheng at the age of fifty but did not continue his studies.

Xiao Si studied medicine with Doctor Liu and Sister Liu Yun. He had memorized a collection of herbal remedies by the age of eight.

He now worked as a medicine boy with Doctor Liu in the pharmacy, waiting tables with his sister, preparing and boiling medicines, and he was becoming more and more proficient in these tasks. Doctor Liu saw that he had learned enough and began to teach him how to take pulses and conduct medical examinations.

Not long after Liu Yuhan gave birth to her second child, Doctor Liu was ready to go out and practice medicine again. Liu Yuhan couldn't stop him, so he could only prepare more food and silver bills for them, as well as a token with the county lady's name given by Liu Yuhan and a pass given by General Huo.

In the words of Doctor Liu, while his old bones can still walk, he should go out more often. This time he brought Xiao Si and Liu Yun, and Huo San and Qiu Ju, both of whom are martial artists. Huo San and Qiu Ju got married last year.

They later worked as doctors in the Qi Family Army and stayed in the barracks for nearly a year.

During this time, the 17-year-old Liu Yun met Jiang Qi Rong, a single military officer of the Qi family, and they developed a mutual attraction. Qi Rong accompanied her back to Fulai Village, and the Liu family arranged their marriage.

There was a house in the county town near Qi Rong’s military camp. Liu Yun worked as a doctor in the local county town. After they got married, they had two sons and one daughter.

Xiao Si continued to practice medicine and fell in love with traveling healers. At 23, having become an older man, he was forced to endure the intolerable beatings of Liu Shinan. Through the introduction of a member of the Liu family, he met Ji Hong, a female doctor also studying medicine. The two married and continued their life of healing the wounded in Fu'an City. They had a son and a daughter.

Doctor Liu devoted his life to studying medicinal materials and saving lives, and he lived to be in his eighties.

Beijing.

The aged Prime Minister abdicated and Liu Zhiyi took over as Prime Minister, while the young Liu Lu became the Left Prime Minister.

Liu Lu stayed in the capital for eight years and was promoted to the position of Left Prime Minister. He was so talented and learned that everyone admired him.

When he was twenty years old, his grandmother introduced him to a woman with outstanding appearance and outstanding talent. When the two met and chatted, they found that they had very similar ideas and lifestyles, and it felt like they had met too late.

In fact, they just met the right person at the right time. After they got married, they settled in the Liu family residence in the capital and had a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, and a daughter.

Hanshan Temple in Beijing.

"Master, I secretly made beggar's chicken today. Do you want to eat it?" Xiao Wu asked the elderly master who was meditating, holding the chicken wrapped in lotus leaves, a little reluctantly.

"Amitabha...you are stealing food again, hurry up and bring it to me, one is not enough, go get two."

"Ah... then Master, you have to let me eat one. I'm still growing. Please don't let your disciple starve."

"Okay, okay, go ahead, kid, bring the chicken over here."

"Oh." Xiao Wu slowly opened the lotus leaf on the chicken, cleaned the chicken, put it in a clean bowl, and gave it to the master.

The chicken smells so good! Xiaowu sniffed it, trying not to drool.

Taoist Master Baimei narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Xiaowu's greedy look, and laughed in his heart. He pulled out a big chicken leg and handed it to him.

"Here, your mouth is watering. Eat it. Remember to wipe your mouth after eating. Be careful not to let anyone see you."

"Thank you, Master, you are so kind!" Xiao Wu finished his meal in a few bites, wiped his mouth clean, and went out to the mountain to look for chickens as his master said. He really wanted to go see his brother, but his master would not let him go down the mountain.

When he was almost fifty years old, Xiao Si passed the examination for the title of Tongsheng and went to the provincial capital to study medicine. At home, he practiced martial arts and helped with housework.

He wanted to follow his older brother into the army, but he was too young and his family wouldn't let him go. Until one day, his fate came...

I wonder if Liu Yuhan still remembers this old monk, the one who said to his family, "This boy has an extraordinary mind and will. He will face a disaster at the age of thirteen. If he can get through it safely, he will definitely be extraordinary in the future. Amitabha..."

The old monk came to the Liu family to beg for alms, still dressed in rags. Mrs. Jiang and the others recalled for a moment and recognized him at once.

The Liu family warmly invited the old monk into the house, prepared food and water for him, brought him a new set of clothes, and asked Xiaowu to take him to bathe.

After the old monk cleaned his body and put on clean clothes, he looked a bit like an immortal.

Liu Daling and Old Lady Jiang still remembered the good fortune that Liu Yuhan had that year, and they respected the old monk very much. The old monk stayed comfortably in the Liu family for several days.

The longer he stayed, the more the two elders wondered: What was the old monk's purpose in coming here? Why had he followed them all the way from north to south? Feeling a little uneasy, the two elders couldn't help but ask aloud.

"Master, what advice do you have?"

"Amitabha, now that girl Yu Ran has survived the ordeal and is living well, right?"

"Yes, yes. My eldest granddaughter is doing well. I wonder what advice the master has for you this time?"

"Amitabha, good deeds will be rewarded. What that girl got was all she prayed for."

"I think that kid has very good muscles and bones. Can you give him up and let him travel with me?" Taoist Master Baimei pointed at Xiaowu who was secretly sticking his head out to look inside the main room door.

Xiaowu was very nervous.

He had been serving the old monk these past few days, and the old monk had even taught him martial arts. He had seen the old monk's power firsthand. He had only used a little effort, and the grass on the ground had been pulled up by the roots! He was horrified at the time!

He decided to cling to this thigh! He wanted to learn powerful martial arts from him. So he secretly pestered the old monk to become his disciple, and promised the old monk that he would be obedient, serve him well, and learn martial arts well.

He hid here secretly and listened to the adults talking, fearing that his family would disagree.

Liu Shinan and his wife looked at their youngest son with mixed feelings. Liu, in particular, knew her son's strength and his obsession with martial arts very well as a mother.

Several adults pulled Xiaowu into Old Lady Jiang's room and interrogated him one by one, mainly asking him about his interactions with the old monk in the past few days.

And was this old monk actually trustworthy? They didn't dare to so easily betray their own child. Xiaowu had explained his feelings to them and expressed his determination. He really, really wanted to go, really wanted to recognize this master! He hoped his family would agree.

Even Liu Yuhan was startled and ran back. Liu Yuhan met the old monk privately, and the old monk only said to her: "Since you are here, make the best of it. Everything is fate..."

The Liu family was busy again. It was very similar to when Liu Yang was leaving to join the army. They prepared a lot of food and clothes for Xiao Wu, and even prepared some for the old monk.

The child was still so young, and they were afraid that he would suffer outside, so they sewed several purses on Xiaowu's undershirt and stuffed a lot of banknotes and silver into them.

Xiaowu followed the old monk and traveled to many places, meeting many people. When faced with injustice, the old monk would ask him to take action first. When things got really bad, he would watch and help. Xiaowu often sighed in his heart: his master sometimes really didn't care about his life or death, what a bastard...

So, two monks, one old and one young, appeared among the people. They hated evil and had great martial arts skills. They helped the Nanlin Kingdom to solve many dark forces that it had been unable to solve.

Whenever Xiaowu passed through a city, he would take the token given by his sister and brother-in-law to the local county government office to find the official. Through these channels, he would send a message home to report his safety, or borrow money from the county government as needed, which the Huo family would repay. He would return to Fulai Village every two years. This was agreed upon in advance with the old monk.

Xiaowu followed the old monk for fifteen years, until the old monk settled down in Hanshan Temple in the capital. The Liu family quickly found a wife for Xiaowu, who was also a martial artist. They were really worried that Xiaowu would become a monk.

Liu's family thought he would settle down after finding him a wife. The couple gave birth to two pairs of twins, a boy and a girl. When the children grew up, the unreliable couple abandoned the children to their family and went on a journey as knights.

The Liu family's courtyard was a scene of chaos and turmoil. The sheer number of children was enough to make Old Lady Jiang's head buzz...
