Me and My Two Bosses' Systems
Chapter 3 The 3th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person
Li Xingyu is currently at the Li family's ancestral home. However, because 'she' has completed the initial stage of her studies, her summer vacation is a month earlier than other periods, and the vacation lasts for three months.
The rest of the family members are still in school or working and haven't returned, so there's only 'her' as a minor and some elderly people in the ancestral home now.
The people here are all of great-grandmother and grandmother age. The great-grandmother is over nine thousand years old, and her companions have all passed away. The grandmothers and grandfathers are over seven thousand years old.
There are three women in the grandmother's generation, and one of them is still working in another region.
The grandparents were well-known figures in their respective fields, and some of them still hold official positions.
Their sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters don't need them to support them, so why should they work themselves to the bone competing with young people for jobs and livelihoods? Wouldn't it be better to just enjoy life?
Besides, they do have pensions, social security, and retirement benefits. They earned a lot of money when they were young, enough to live several lifetimes.
Although, there are social security benefits here.
Although my grandparents aren't that old now, they've passed their prime and their energy isn't what it used to be.
The age here is calculated from the time the chicks hatch. The hatching time varies depending on the species and environment, and the result is uncertain. Therefore, the period inside the egg is not counted.
0~300岁未成年,300~3000岁青年时期,3000~7000岁是壮年时期,7000岁后就进入退休年龄了。
Even if someone lives for tens of thousands of years, this standard should still be followed. People should have some time to rest and young people should have some opportunities.
It's time for them to enjoy their retirement. Even without pensions or anything, their children can certainly support them.
They used to work in all sorts of places, mostly in various parts of interstellar space.
This blue planet is hundreds of times larger than Earth, and its plate tectonics is also very different.
Blue Star is a vast planet composed of 34 states, each with different cities. Its administrative divisions are: galaxy-planet-state-city-district.
The Li family is one of the top families in the interstellar world with a well-established lineage.
The Li family's ancestral home is in Yangzhou, in the southern region of Blue Star. However, the headquarters of the Li family business is located in Jingzhou, the capital city of Blue Star, in the northern region of Blue Star.
At the same time, Yangzhou is also the location of the Interstellar Alliance headquarters. The Li family's ancestral home and the Interstellar Alliance headquarters are in the same state, only one is located in the south and the other in the north.
Generally speaking, alliances should not be located in the center of any power's territory, but unfortunately, Earth has a good geographical location, almost in the center of the interstellar space.
During the most intense and fierce battles against the alien beasts, Earth became the main base and hub of the interstellar defense line.
When the alliance was established, a vote was taken to decide that the alliance headquarters would be located on Blue Star.
For various reasons, the Alliance headquarters was located in Yangzhou, a southern region far from the capital of Earth.
Later, the Star People were very satisfied with the Star Alliance, and no race proposed changing the location of the Alliance headquarters, so the Alliance maintained its original layout.
The world's technology is so advanced, coupled with the infrastructure-obsessed genes ingrained in the DNA of the Chinese people, transportation is even more convenient.
Humans living in this world still habitually refer to their country as the "Chinese nation," "Huaxia," "Dragon Kingdom," "China," etc., and consider themselves descendants of Yan and Huang, descendants of the dragon, etc.
Aside from going to the interstellar battlefield, the head of the Li family almost always lives on Earth.
Because of the Li family's rules, they have almost always worked and struggled on Earth. In addition, they are also reluctant to leave this country.
One of the Li family's rules is that the eldest daughter of the main family must live on Blue Star and cannot leave Blue Star for an extended period of time.
Her grandmother was the eldest daughter of the main household, as was her mother.
Fortunately, she has an older sister; she's not the eldest daughter, which is great.
The second rule of the Li family: If the eldest daughter of the head of the family business is capable, she shall inherit it; if she is not capable, other capable and ambitious Li family women shall inherit it.
The third rule of the Li family clan: Every member of the main branch of the Li family, both children and those who remain in the clan, owns shares in the family business. Women hold these shares for life, and they revert to the family upon their death. For men, the shares are converted into assets at the market value at the time of marriage and then returned to the family.
Fortunately, her older sister is capable and has been designated as the next head of the family. She can inherit the family business, while she can have shares and a house without inheriting the family business. That's great.
Li Xingyu agreed with 'her' idea; in this respect, they were quite aligned.
I don't want to do anything, I just want to enjoy life and stay away from all troublesome things, like power and influence...
To put it bluntly, I'm lazy, and um, a bit socially anxious.
Her family members also dislike being served, so all the maids in their household are robots of various types.
During holidays and long vacations, her family members usually return to their ancestral home to spend time with their relatives. Everyone has their own room in the ancestral home.
Moreover, a large area in this vicinity belongs to their family; their ancestral home occupies nearly one-fifth of the total area of Yangzhou.
Apart from the eldest daughter, all the other women in the Li family, after reaching adulthood, were required to choose a place in the ancestral home area of the Li family and build their own houses.
If a man here intends to get married, he lives with his mother and father before marriage and with his wife after marriage. He can own property other than his ancestral home.
If a man does not intend to marry and has siblings, he can inherit a portion of his parents' ancestral home with the permission of his mother and father. An only child, on the other hand, needs to hand over one-third of the property to the family, who will then protect, care for, and support him in his old age until his death.
Interstellar beings have long lifespans, but their reproduction is extremely difficult; they may only conceive between the ages of 2600 and 4000.
Many men never have their own child in their lifetime, so most families here don't have more than three children, and even fewer have daughters. This is probably the price of such a long lifespan.
Compared to their few offspring, what shocked Li Xingyu even more was:
In this world, it's actually men who lay eggs!!! Men!!! Lay eggs!!! Lay?? Eggs!!! ??
Were the people here originally hatched from eggs?
No, the eggs here are laid by males?!
No, humans are born from eggs?
Oh, now she's also emerged from an egg.
This was utterly shocking to Li Xingyu, her worldview collapsed... collapsed... collapsed...
Although... but... how did they even give birth?!
Oh~ When girls are 18 years old, they gradually begin to develop. At the coccyx, as they grow, their reproductive organs—a tail—slowly grow out.
The tail comes in a variety of shapes and colors, and most of the time it's just decoration, but a powerful one can even be used as a weapon. And when it's 'hmm'... hehe.
Upon receiving this message, Li Xingyu subconsciously touched the area around her tailbone; a tail would grow from there someday!
But the men lay the eggs!
It's okay, I can do it.
A tail is fine; she can accept having a long tail compared to laying eggs. After all, compared to her past self, the only difference between the women here and those before is that they all have a tail; otherwise, they haven't changed at all.
Importantly, the women here are counted from the year they start puberty after the age of 18, after which they only have one regular menstrual period per year.
It's nothing like before, when she had it every month. Although she didn't experience pain before, she found it extremely troublesome.
Upon receiving this, Li Xingyu's lips curled into a wide smile. How wonderful! It only happens once a year. Although there will be some fluctuations in mental strength, it will change according to the level of mental strength and the condition of physical fitness.
Although in vitro fertilization (IVF) has long been supported by technology, children born through this method have a lower survival rate and are less healthy than naturally conceived children.
Moreover, IVF babies only hatch into males, and they are relatively weaker than naturally born children. They also require the help of breeding institutions and women to hatch.
Therefore, married people still do not choose IVF. Most of those who choose IVF are men who do not plan to get married or are same-sex couples.
Yes, the law here allows men to date and marry, but due to population ratios and birth rates, the law does not allow women to marry.
After submitting their applications, men undergo review by relevant departments. Only after confirming their ability and energy to raise a child can they be randomly matched with the genetic data of a deceased woman to cultivate a test-tube baby.
Li Xingyu silently comforted herself: It's okay, it's okay. It's just a long tail. We've already swapped souls and traveled through time. We're both over ten thousand years old. It's not a big problem. It's fine. At least if she gets married here, she won't have to have children.
……Hahaha……
Ahhhhhh... Li Xingyu screamed like a groundhog inside her heart.
No, she can't stay calm...
Fortunately, in her memory, the appearance of men and women here is similar to that of the world Li Xingyu was in before. Apart from the fact that the women have tails that they can't retract, and some racial characteristics and gender ratios that some races retain, they are almost identical. Otherwise, Li Xingyu would definitely not have been able to adapt to this world for a very long time.
'Her' mother...
Now she is her mother, Li Shih-han.
She was the eldest daughter of the Li family head in her generation. There were three women in her generation, and they are still working outside now.
Her mother inherited the Li family business, which was located far from the ancestral home in Jingzhou, several states away from Yangzhou.
For convenience, Li Xingyu's mother and her fathers live in Jingzhou, where the group is located.
Apart from Mr. Fu, who is also in business and helps Mrs. manage the group, the other fathers all have businesses and jobs outside the business world.
That's right, dads, her mother married nine husbands in total.
Yes, you read that right, it's marriage.
Here, women marry men, and the men live with the women after marriage.
Ah~ nine! She gained so many fathers after transmigrating.
According to her memories, her fathers were not of the same race.
Wow~ This is truly a wonderful world.
In this world, they call their mothers "Mom" or "Mother," and as for their fathers, if they are biological fathers, they simply call them "Dad" or "Father," and if they are not biological fathers, they add their first or last name to "Dad" or "Daddy."
She was the offspring of her mother's youngest husband.
Yes, her biological father is a human being, which is great.
Their small family now has five children: two women and three men. The older sister is the second oldest, and she is the youngest in the family, both in their small family and in the entire Li family.
Including the other two aunts, there were a total of fifteen children.
Wow, their family is really large and prosperous.
What happened to the difficulty in having children?
What happened to the rule that a family wouldn't have more than three members?
OK.
Li Xingyu felt helpless. This time-traveling experience not only gave her several fathers, but also several older brothers and sisters.
This outfit is so beautiful!
Regardless of the world, their family atmosphere is always harmonious, and the family members get along very well.
When summer vacation officially begins and the grandchildren return, the parents who are still working and the older siblings will also take time to come back, and the whole family will go out to play together.
When Li Xingyu saw this, she couldn't help but smile slightly. Although the two of them were from different worlds, they were still very similar in these aspects. They would reunite during long holidays and festivals.
People also occasionally get together in their spare time, either with family or friends; it seems to be a habit ingrained in their bones.
