Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 224 The 224th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

"Alright, the data has been adjusted." Xinghe straightened up and turned his gaze to Tian Shu.

"I've already recorded it here, you can just select it next time." Tian Shu pressed the save button, checked it, and nodded to Xing He.

"Is it ready?" Li Xingyu sat obediently to the side, looking curiously at the environment simulator in front of her.

These technologies, which he had never encountered before, were still very attractive to Li Xingyu.

In particular, Li Xingyu had only seen the machine in front of him once before.

Because the environment simulator was originally designed to help soldiers adapt to combat in different environments and regions, it can simulate not only normal environments but also some extreme weather and terrain.

The one that Xinghe and Tianshu have now is no different from the military version in terms of function and standard, which is why they have explicitly forbidden Li Xingyu and the others from touching it.

Li Xingyu always had a feeling that the world was both peaceful and dangerous.

When I first learned about the status of women and infants, I thought everything would be safe and sound. But who knew that so many things would be shared by the military and civilians, the kind of things that could lead to life-threatening situations if one was not careful.

While mentally complaining about the dangers of these technological gadgets, Li Xingyu recalled the demonstrations Xinghe and the others had given her when explaining the dangers of these items. All her enthusiasm had long since cooled down, okay?

It looks pretty simple to operate. Let Xinghe and the others do it next time.

Or is it possible to create some numerical thresholds that aren't so large? Otherwise, Li Xingyu always has this inexplicable feeling that his talents are being wasted and his life is in danger.

"I'll go check on how well Li Yue and the others are kneading the dough. After rolling it out into a sheet, rolling it up, and then placing it in the environment simulator, you can cut it into strips and cook it. It's a fairly simple specialty food." Li Xingyu controlled the hoverboard to float towards Li Yue and the others, not forgetting to give them a brief explanation.

"Little Feather, the dough is almost ready. Should we roll it into a pancake next?" Just then, Elnis finished kneading the dough he was in charge of and was about to ask Li Xingyu what the next step was when he heard her words.

For Tanuki and the others, the kneading step requires less strength and more control—controlling themselves not to use too much force and not to play with the dough.

Kneading dough was still quite a surprise to the interstellar people.

Li Xingyu's previous answer about whether kneading dough was serious or not had already stirred up a storm on the StarNet for a long time, and it hasn't completely subsided yet.

However, aside from posting recipes, music, novels, and TV series, Li Xingyu rarely goes online. The live stream announcements are also sent by the system when the live stream starts, and she is in a state where she can't even connect to 2G network.

However, because Li Xingyu streams almost every day, although most of the time it's around mealtimes, the streams are still quite long. In addition, given his status as a god-level mental power user, countless people watch each stream.

"Yes, that's it. Roll it out flat, but not too thin. Try to keep the thickness around 3mm, otherwise the fish strips you cut will be too thick and wide." Li Xingyu picked up a rolling pin and came to the small piece of dough that she had just rolled out.

Although she didn't have many opportunities or skills to use a rolling pin before, Li Xingyu is no longer the same person she used to be. She is now Li Xingyu, the master chef.

Whether it's a rolling pin or an embroidery needle, Li Xingyu is skilled and proficient in both; she is just that versatile and perfect.

After rolling out the dough made from the fish and flour into a thin sheet, Li Xingyu rolled it up tightly.

If the dough isn't rolled tightly, it will harden after sitting for a long time; if it's too loose, it will be difficult to cut later.

"Well, let's stop here for now and leave the rest to time and circumstances. Just cut it into strips before cooking."

If you want to preserve it for a long time, you can also evaporate all the moisture inside after cutting it.

"This way, even without storage space and a time-stopping device, it can be preserved in a dry place for more than a year." Li Xingyu placed the rolled-up dough aside for everyone to observe, and then went to wash her hands.

This step doesn't require much skill or brainpower, but it's not without its limitations. However, with so many capable people around, Li Xingyu isn't planning on doing it herself.

The aftereffects of waking up early are starting to bother me.

Right now, Li Xingyu feels like she can't quite control her emotions and actions; to be precise, it's probably that her mind and body aren't on the same wavelength.

Let's eat breakfast later, otherwise Li Xingyu is afraid she'll fall headfirst into the bowl.

She still cared about her image and reputation, after all, such a large floating ball was hovering in front of Li Xingyu, constantly reminding her to pay attention to her appearance.

Xinghe and the others could tell that Li Xingyu was a little lacking in energy, which was to be expected given the time of day.

Normally at this time, Li Xingyu would have just woken up, but now she's already doing things like catching fish, processing them, chopping meat, kneading dough, and rolling out noodles. She probably hasn't completely shaken off her drowsiness yet.

"Okay, Little Feather, do you want to rest for a while?" Xinghe suggested softly, noticing the weariness in Li Xingyu's eyes.

"Never mind, I still want to eat breakfast. You guys make it first, I'm going to go outside and stretch my legs. Are you going to stay here and continue learning how to make fish noodles, or do you want to come with me to exercise?" Li Xingyu covered his mouth with his hand, yawned, shook his head, and looked up at the floating ball to ask.

Amidst a barrage of comments like "[Following the young prince.]", a few scattered comments included "[Requesting notes.]" and "[Steps have been recorded.]".

"Alright, I'll take the hovering ball out, you guys continue." Li Xingyu nodded indifferently as he looked at the overwhelmingly negative comments.

Anyway, the videos and explanations of Baduanjin and Tai Chi have already been released by the alliance, and there are quite a few people in StarCraft practicing them together, so Li Xingyu has nothing to worry about.

“Okay, but can Qingqi come with you?” Xinghe nodded to Li Xingyu without surprise, and then exchanged a glance with Qingqi.

“Okay, let’s go.” Li Xingyu knew they were worried about her, so she nodded and got off the hoverboard to wait for Qingqi to finish packing.

Everyone was surprised and understanding when they first saw Li Xingyu's newly released appearance.

However, as time went by and Li Xingyu's attitude remained largely unchanged, Xinghe and the others felt a growing sense of unease.

After all, wearing something around your ankles always feels a bit restrictive, but Li Xingyu looked just like usual.

Xinghe and the others understood that the other party simply felt that they were carrying too many and too cluttered items. They themselves only had a necklace, a personal computer, and one or two bracelets, some of which were earrings, making them appear even more minimalist.

These are more than enough for them. After all, in terms of combat strength and safety, Xinghe and his group are much more reassuring than Li Xingyu, although they are not significantly less.

Li Xingyu and Qingqi reunited with Xinghe and the others half an hour later.

Since they were going to be active anyway, Li Xingyu and Xinghe explained the next steps and then arranged today's exercise routine.

After inquiring about Xinghe and the others' progress, Li Xingyu asked Qingqi to take the levitation ball to the kitchen, while she went back to her room to tidy up.

When Li Xingyu reappeared before everyone, her appearance was slightly different from before:

Her hair was braided into a scorpion braid that hung down to her waist, with the baby hairs and stray hairs on her forehead and temples sticking up rather unruly;

The white t-shirt and pink pleated skirt combination was transformed into a black cropped t-shirt and white pleated skirt, with some silver metal ornaments hanging from the skirt.

"Little Feather, you're all packed up so quickly? Anyway, we're waiting for you next, so we just adjusted the frequency of the time accelerator a little. It should take about three more minutes." Xinghe was surprised for a moment by Li Xingyu's unusual behavior before she came to her senses.

"It's alright, there's still plenty of time, no rush." ​​Li Xingyu approached the group and observed the condition of the fish.

However, Li Xingyu, whose attention was focused on the fish strips, did not notice the somewhat unnatural expressions on Xinghe and the others' faces after she approached.

Clearly, feng shui changes every day.

Li Xingyu was the one who seemed a bit awkward before, but now it's Xinghe and the others' turn.

1v9

Li Xingyu won decisively.

"Let's use this time to make some soup base. We can save any leftovers for next time. What's wrong with you guys?"

Li Xingyu carefully observed the fish silk that was still within the range of the time accelerator and the environment simulator. When she looked up to talk to Xinghe and the others, she met their somewhat evasive and unnatural expressions.

"Ahem, it's nothing. What kind of soup base do you want to make? I'll go prepare the ingredients." Xinghe was the first to react again, clearing her throat to change the subject.

"Bone broth and meat broth, all you need are a few large bones with meat on them." As Xinghe wished, Li Xingyu shifted her attention to what she was going to use next.

"Okay, I'll go get it. Are there any variety requirements?" Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief, her ears turning red, but her expression was one of forced composure.

"Well, let's prepare some pork first, preferably large bones from the leg. We can talk about other varieties later." Li Xingyu was taken aback by Xinghe's question.

However, subconsciously, the bone broth base I think of is only pork bones; beef bones and lamb bones don't seem to be in my subconscious.

Xinghe nodded to indicate that he understood and then went to the storage room, accompanied by Elnis.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Li Xingyu was staring blankly at a point on the ceiling when the floating ball bumped into her field of vision.

Because the bullet screen is linked to the quantum computer, it shuts down automatically when Li Xingyu is not here.

Upon opening the bullet screen, Li Xingyu was bombarded with a whole screen of comments like "[fragrant, sucking, soft, sticky.]".

"..."

Silence filled the kitchen this morning and the eight people who were dumbfounded.

Li Xingyu stared at the barrage of comments, unsure whether to turn it off or keep watching.

Xinghe and Elnis came out with the big bone, and their attention was immediately drawn to the barrage of comments floating in mid-air. After seeing it clearly, they understood why the kitchen was so quiet.

"Ahem, Xiao Yumo and the others are still minors, they're still young, you should all tone it down." Xinghe looked at Tian Shu's amused expression and said to the floating sphere with a hint of helplessness.

Li Xingyu blinked, as if she had just heard something strange, and it came from Xinghe's mouth.

So, does this mean that I can say these things to her now that I'm an adult?

Uh ~

Are interstellar people really that open-minded?

It does seem quite open-minded.

"Xinghe is right, you guys better behave yourselves, or I'll turn off the holographic display." Li Xingyu clenched his fist and glared fiercely at the floating sphere, waving his fist twice as a threat.

It has to be said that Li Xingyu accurately grasped everyone's weakness, and the number of comments on the bullet screen decreased significantly in an instant.

"Hmph, let's begin." Li Xingyu calmed down from the barrage of comments and snorted as if she had won a round. Without looking at the floating ball or the barrage wall, she turned and walked towards the soup pot.

Making bone broth doesn't require many ingredients; just bones, scallions, ginger, and a little bit of spices are enough. The rest is mainly about time.

Li Xingyu took a small gauze bag containing the prepared spices and then put it into the bone broth that had already been skimmed of foam.

"Alright, put on the time accelerator. It needs to simmer for at least three hours. Add the salt half an hour before it's done and stir well." Li Xingyu clapped her hands, and Xinghe placed the time accelerator next to the pot, so that its effect would cover the soup pot.

"It's time to cut the fish into strips. Next, we'll cut them into strips, right?" Yufinal's excited voice rang out, his tone quite impatient.

"Yes, try to cut them as evenly as possible. If possible, make them even thinner than the three-millimeter thickness I just mentioned." Li Xingyu nodded with a smile. It was finally time to reap the rewards.

“In the past, this fish floss was only made during the Chinese New Year because all the conditions were right, and most importantly, there was someone in the family who had the time.” Li Xingyu looked at the dough roll in her hand, which had hardened a bit, and couldn’t help but sigh.

Besides having someone at home who is available, you also need fresh ingredients.

In some areas that are not near the coast or lakes, most fresh fish are caught from their own fishponds close to the Lunar New Year. If they want to eat fish at other times, they have to buy them from shops or markets.

"New Year? I know, it's when all the families of humans gather together on the last day of the year, and that's called New Year's Eve."

Then, after midnight, we eat dumplings, set off firecrackers, and then go to sleep. This is called "staying up all night" (守岁).

Then comes the first day of the new year, a time when people don't work, but rather gather together and have fun.

Then, in the following days, people who have already married and left home will return to visit their relatives and elders.

This whole process is called Chinese New Year. It is said that during Chinese New Year, people receive lucky money, which is a red envelope filled with coins.

Because there are only a few text descriptions and very few incomplete pictures, but now the human race takes a holiday for the last two weeks of the year and the first two weeks of the new year. "Tian Shu's voice rang out amidst the bewildered expressions of everyone except Li Xingyu.
