Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

It was past noon, and the father and daughter were pulling a cart of things back home. When they were almost home, Liu Yuhan took out a few bags of brown rice and a few bags of black flour from the space.

Although the journey is not short, the road conditions are not very smooth and are a bit bumpy. If a carriage is running, the people behind will only have their faces covered in dust.

As expected, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

After returning home, everyone had eaten and went back to work. Liu left some food for the father and daughter, and after Liu Shinan finished eating, he ran to the construction site to work.

Liu Daling also brought his eldest grandson to join in the work. Liu Guang, Liu Lu and other young boys from the village would go to the foot of the mountain every day to chop and collect firewood.

Liu Yuhan specifically found the old man and told him that they had already bought a bed and a wardrobe, and asked him to prepare furniture such as stools, tables, cupboards, and shelves.

When Li saw Liu Yuhan bought some pig offal and added a little extra wood ash, she took a machete and took the pig head and offal to the stream to wash them. Liu told Liu Yuhan to rest and followed her.

When Old Mrs. Jiang saw the chicken her granddaughter bought, she smiled happily. It turned out that her granddaughter understood her very well.

He quickly asked his eldest son to make a simple chicken coop. Liu Yao, Liu Yun, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu were all very happy. Liu Yao took the younger ones to dig earthworms for the chickens, hoping that the hens would lay eggs soon.

Liu Yuhan went to the construction site and took a look. The foundation had been completed and the cellar was being dug. The pits for the toilet and bathroom that Liu Yuhan was going to build also needed to be dug in advance.

Craftsman Niu studied for a long time, figuring out how to fix the water pipes and make flushing more convenient.

The hole for the manure pit needs to be covered with a few large stone slabs. This not only masks the smell but also allows it to be opened flexibly. The water can be used to irrigate vegetables and grow crops.

In rural areas, cow dung, donkey dung, and mule dung are all good things. Even if you see them on the road or by the side of the field, people will rush to pick them up. This is the simple version of "compound fertilizer".

In the past two days, the Liu Shihu brothers slept next to the construction site, guarding the bricks and wood they bought. The two elders also said they wanted to guard it. The materials weighed fifty or sixty taels, and the more houses they built, the more money they would spend.

Liu Yuhan started cooking pork bone and winter melon soup. She cut nearly 10 pounds of pork belly into pieces of similar size, put the pork belly into a pot with cold water, wild ginger, and cooking wine. Once it boiled, she removed the pork belly, rinsed it with cold water, and set it aside.

First steam two pots of rice, cut the pumpkin, and save the pumpkin seeds and winter melon seeds to dry in the sun.

Tonight I'll have a big bone and winter melon soup, braised pork, and a boiled pumpkin. Pumpkin is soft, sweet, and everyone likes it.

The aunt and my mother also washed the pig's head and brought it back, putting it in the inner room first and then braising it in the evening.

The time is almost up, so start cooking the braised pork. Heat the pan with cold oil, add a little rock sugar and dissolve it, then pour in the pork belly and stir-fry until it is colored. People who work like to use more oil, so no oil is produced by frying.

Directly add cooking wine, light soy sauce, and a little bit of dark soy sauce, garlic, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, and orange peel and stir-fry until fragrant. Add water to cover the meat, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Test the taste before serving, add a little salt and chicken essence, and the fragrant braised pork is ready, and the aroma will spread from miles away.

The workers' hearts were all drawn to this. Craftsman Niu scolded them with a smile, telling them to work harder and that they would have a good meal soon.

During the meal, everyone was captivated by the aroma of the braised pork. Liu Yuhan cut the meat into large pieces, ensuring everyone had at least two or three. After the rice, the braised pork and pumpkin, and then a bowl of soup for everyone, it was a feast for the eyes.

Once again, they sighed that the owner was so generous and they had to work hard for him.

The Liu family, young and old, also had their fill.

Everyone left after eating. Li took Liu Yun and Liu Yao to clean up the dishes, Liu started the fire, and Liu Yuhan blanched the cleaned pig's head and offal in water, then took them out of the water and stir-fried all the spices such as five-spice powder and star anise over low heat until fragrant.

Add more water, put in the blanched pig offal and pig head, add appropriate amount of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce and high-proof liquor, bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat for nearly an hour. Use chopsticks to poke the pig head until it is soft.

Turn off the heat and let it simmer in the pot. Tomorrow, cut it up and heat it up, and it will be a delicious dish. The little ones, who had just finished their meal, smelled the aroma and became hungry again.

Liu Yuhan smiled and cut some offal for his younger siblings, asking them to take it to their eldest brother to eat together.

In the minds of his family, Liu Yang is already an adult and is about to get married, but in Liu Yuhan's heart, he has always been regarded as a younger brother.

Liu Yuhan also cut a little for the two elders. There was a bottle of wine in Liu Daling's room. He would take a sip every night before going to bed. It was appropriate to give him some wine. As long as he was in good health and didn't drink too much, he could do whatever he wanted.

The two elders were very emotional about their current life. It had only been half a year, and they were so poor before that they could not afford to buy food or clothes, let alone have wine to drink. Now, thanks to their eldest granddaughter, their food, clothing and other living expenses have been greatly improved. They have eaten delicious food that they have never eaten in their lives, and a new house has been built. Their lives have really gotten better.

Life is nothing more than eating, drinking, housing and transportation, and people's livelihood is it.

Tonight, Liu Yuhan finished planting the last few seedlings in the space and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He decided to plant six acres first, and there were still 10 acres of land left for seedling cultivation.

It will take another month to transplant the medicinal herb seeds. Five acres of corn have already been planted. Corn is relatively simple to plant. Soak the seeds in medicine overnight, then you can plant 2 to 3 seeds with one hoe on the previously prepared corn ridges. Just pay attention to the spacing.

The potatoes and sweet potatoes are harvested around the same time, and what a bountiful harvest! A bountiful harvest! Looking at the potatoes and sweet potatoes, big and small, that she had painstakingly dug out, Liu Yuhan beamed.

Each person digs a little at a time, and then continues to plant the seeds. If two acres of potatoes and sweet potatoes are planted, more seeds will be left, which is enough to plant hundreds of acres.

The seedlings of various fruits and vegetables have grown again, and all I can do is dig and plant them...

It feels like there is endless work to do...

The next day she woke up late again. Sometimes she was so tired that she fell asleep on the bed, sometimes she forgot to set the alarm clock, and sometimes she couldn't hear the alarm clock. Of course, this situation was very rare. Unless her body was exhausted.

As expected, I clearly told myself not to work so hard. Do I still want to keep this body?

Seeing that their elder sister was still sleeping, the two sisters did not disturb her and quietly walked out of the door and closed it.

Mrs. Liu or Old Lady Jiang would come into the room to check on Liu Yuhan, and when they saw her quiet face and gentle breathing, they would breathe a sigh of relief. This child is sometimes too tired, so they would let her rest for a while.

As soon as I left the room, I asked Xiaosi and Xiaowu, who were playing at the door, to keep their voices down.

There is a river near the village. The water is not very high in winter, and the children in the village sometimes like to go to the river to play. One time, Xiaosi and Xiaowu took off their clothes while playing and got them wet. Old Mrs. Jiang got very angry, chased them and beat them, forced them to drink a bowl of ginger and brown sugar water, and never let them go to the village to play again.

They were told to read and practice calligraphy with their brothers under the eaves in the morning. After that, they would go find insects for the chickens and dig for earthworms.

Xiaosi and Xiaowu thought it was an interesting thing, and they would join in feeding the chickens and horses.

It turns out that teaching by example is very important.

After seeing so many naughty kids and watching so many videos of them on Douyin in modern times, Liu Yuhan sighed that the children at home are so sensible and well-behaved.
