Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 39 The 39th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

Despite her complaints, Li Xingyu didn't hesitate to pick the good-looking cucumbers and put them into her storage space.

Ryan and Rice exchanged a glance and then followed Li Xingyu to pick cucumbers.

After picking for a while, Li Xingyu broke the half-meter-long cucumber she had just picked into three pieces, handing them to her two grandfathers as she did so: "Grandpa Ryan, Grandpa Rice, here you go."

"Crunch, mmm, delicious." Li Xingyu took a bite of the cucumber in her hand and couldn't help but praise it.

The crisp and refreshing texture, the sweet and rich aroma... well, if it were cooled down a bit more, the taste would be even better.

Fortunately, the piece that Li Xingyu broke off for herself wasn't too long, only about ten centimeters. She was still a little unsure about her current appetite.

What if she's full from eating cucumbers now and won't be able to eat dinner later?

Li Xingyu munched on a cucumber as she walked towards the door, then turned on the chat to see what the people in the live stream were doing since she wasn't interacting.

Immediately, a flood of comments surged in like a tidal wave.

[Wow, this is delicious! Is this a new variety of cucumber?]

Princess Hoshino is so cute! I love her!

[Hmm, the fluctuations in Prince Xingyu's spiritual energy feel so good.]

…………

A third of the comments were about the cucumber, and the rest were about Li Xingyu. The most eye-catching thing was the various gift effects, which almost made Li Xingyu's eyes dazzled.

Seeing the constantly scrolling bullet comments and gift effects, Li Xingyu hesitated for a moment while chewing.

Of course, it was just for a moment. I glanced at the cucumber in my hand, not knowing if it was a new variety, but the taste and texture were indeed good. Then I continued to crunch and chew.

However, Li Xingyu didn't turn off these fancy things. Since he had already handed them over to Xinghe, he would let him manage them. As for turning off the gifts, ha, that's laughable, there's no such option at all.

Li Xingyu had just been planning to check what else was in the live stream, but then she watched helplessly as her gift settings suddenly only had one option left: gift effects.

Li Xingyu immediately messaged Xinghe, who calmly reassured her that this was a normal phenomenon and there was nothing to worry about.

Looking at the constantly fluctuating gift amount, Li Xingyu was dumbfounded. Are people in interstellar space really this rich?

In just a short while, it's already six figures!

Interstellar inflation? No way, she thought it was normal when she was buying groceries just now.

Forget it, they don't think there's any problem, and there's no news from Xinghe either, so let's just ignore it and continue.

Li Xingyu, munching on a raw cucumber, glanced back and saw her two grandfathers following behind. She continued walking slowly forward.

The plot of land wasn't particularly long or short, but Li Xing arrived at the tomato patch by the door in no time.

"Sigh~" Li Xingyu looked at the brightly colored tomatoes, each as big as her head, and couldn't help but sigh.

You know, this tomato looks pretty good, so why does she vomit as soon as she eats it and can't stand its texture and taste?

Aside from tomato-flavored potato chips and ketchup that goes with fries, she's not really into anything else related to tomatoes.

Li Xingyu looked at Ryan and Rice, who were already standing next to her. Seeing the doubt and worry in their eyes, she gently shook her head at them to indicate that everything was fine.

Hmm... she also throws up after eating tomatoes. That's good, she doesn't need to make excuses anymore. After all, tomatoes are quite nutritious and are a food that interstellar people really like.

Seeing the still somewhat puzzled looks on Ryan and Rice's faces, Li Xingyu said helplessly, "Oh, it's okay, I won't eat it, you guys eat it."

Ryan and Rice exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Li Xingyu start picking tomatoes, they also approached the tomato field.

Li Xingyu picked a tomato that was about the size of her two fists, and broke it in half with a little force. Oh my, it was so juicy and had a rich tomato flavor.

After examining the tomato, Li Xingyu handed the tomato, which had been broken in half, to the back of the table.

As soon as Ryan and Rice approached their little feather, they saw the tomato handed to them by the little feather. Both of them looked helpless, but they didn't say anything. They just silently took the tomato from Li Xingyu's hand, one slice each.

Although Li Xingyu couldn't eat tomatoes directly, she could make tomato sauce, so she still picked quite a few into her storage space.

Ryan and Rice also picked quite a few into the basket intermittently.

At this point, the ingredients for Li Xingyu's first meal in the interstellar world were basically ready.

Feeling that she had picked enough, Li Xingyu emerged from the tomato patch.

"Grandpa Ryan, Grandpa Rice, I've finished picking them. Let's hurry home and cook!" Li Xingyu said impatiently to the two men who were still bending over picking tomatoes in the field, standing on the path at the entrance of the plantation.

“Okay, Little Feather, we’re coming.” Ryan replied to Li Xingyu, then called to his younger brother, “Rice, are you ready? We need to go back.”

Rice straightened up from the ground, looking a little bewildered. He was holding a tomato the size of Li Xingyu's head in his hand, and had several large red tomatoes gathered in his arms.

"Grandpa Rice, we're going home to cook." Li Xingyu waved to Rice, who was looking over, with a smile.

Rice nodded and walked towards Li Xingyu, carrying the tomatoes.

Li Xingyu chuckled to herself. Grandpa Rice was incredibly serious and aloof at work, but at home he reverted to his naturally ditzy and slow-witted nature.

It must be because he was exhausted from working on the battlefield and in the hospital. Even before he retired, he was always on edge, even when he was doing ordinary work.

It's so much better now. I don't have to be so tense anymore. Although I'm still habitually serious, and I'm only a little more relaxed at home, things are slowly getting better.

After Ryan and Rice arrived, Li Xingyu chatted and laughed with them as they walked towards the plantation entrance. She couldn't wait to go home for dinner.

The three took a shortcut back home.

As soon as Ryan and Rice entered the room, they received the message. After glancing at it, they put the vegetable baskets they were carrying on the dining table, told Li Xingyu, and then went to their respective rooms with frowns.

Watching the two grandfathers leave the restaurant, Li Xingyu couldn't help but complain, "They're retired, but they still have to work. How pitiful."

Then Li Xingyu happily walked towards the kitchen, and unexpectedly saw a tall, silver-haired boy through the glass wall between the kitchen and the dining room. The boy was busy in the kitchen.

Li Xingyu looked at the silver-haired boy busy in the kitchen, somewhat bewildered.

When did this person come into our family? No one in our family has long silver hair.

Someone's coming over today? That's not right. It's not appropriate to have guests busy in the kitchen, and Grandpa and Grandma aren't in the living room either.

Then Li Xingyu suddenly thought of something, walked into the kitchen, tilted her head, and tentatively called out to the man in a small voice, "Xinghe?"

"Yes, Little Feather, you're back." The silver-haired man replied to Li Xingyu with a smile in his eyes.

Li Xingyu looked at the man in front of her and listened to his answer. She breathed a sigh of relief and then became somewhat lost in thought.

Wow, another beautiful voice, a clear and gentle gentleman's voice, somewhat similar to Han Qing's, but even more warm and gentle.

Yes, Xinghe is also very beautiful. She has a gentle and refined appearance, like jade that has been polished, played with, and refined over time.

Her long silver hair cascaded over her shoulders, with a few wisps of hair falling across her forehead. Her face was as handsome as jade, with beautifully shaped phoenix eyes and very pale blue pupils. Her lips were also a light pink, with full, rounded lips.

Xinghe smiled, his eyes crinkling, as he looked at Li Xingyu, who was staring at him. He knew she was just curious, but he still had to cook: "Little Feather?"

Li Xingyu snapped back to reality: "Huh?"

Li Xingyu's inner thoughts went wild: 'Ahhh, a gentle beauty with long silver hair, I'm in love! He's so handsome, his voice and appearance are so gentle!'

Indeed, Xinghe's features are all very approachable: slightly curved eyebrows, phoenix eyes, smiling lips, soft facial lines, and a gentle, jade-like temperament. He truly is the gentleman that Li Xingyu has imagined.

Xinghe rolled up the sleeves of his slightly slipping white shirt; "I've already prepared the meat, but what about the fish and rice?"

Li Xingyu thought to herself that if Xinghe wore Hanfu, he would definitely be a refined scholar or elegant gentleman who had stepped out of a painting. She also replied to Xinghe, "I will take care of the fish. As for the rice, you can wash all the rice you bought, about three times should be enough."

Xinghe watched as Li Xingyu, wearing a flower wreath, walked towards him while using her mental energy to conjure objects, and gently blinked her beautiful eyes: "Okay."

Li Xingyu didn't care about the princess's loose hair anymore; all she wanted to do was eat. Letting her hair down would interfere with her cooking, so she conjured another hairpin and decided to put her hair up like this.

Having forgotten where she put the hairpin from this morning, Li Xingyu stood next to the kitchen trash can with the newly formed hairpin with a pendant in hand. She smoothed it with her hand and then used a method that wouldn't loosen it to put her hair up in a bun.

Xinghe stared in disbelief as Li Xingyu took a beautiful metal rod with a pendant and quickly styled her hair into a pretty bun.

Because he also has long hair, it can be troublesome to wear it down sometimes, so Xinghe has developed a superb hair-tying skill, but he has never seen a method like Li Xingyu's.

"Little Feather~ How do you style your hair like this?" Xinghe couldn't help but ask Li Xingyu, who was observing the fish in the sink.

"Oh, this? I saw it in my father's study. It's an old way of styling hair. I thought it was very convenient, so I learned it." Li Xingyu made up a story without batting an eye.

It's not entirely fabricated; 'she' did indeed frequently visit Siwei'er's study to read. Siwei'er was a snake-beastman who loved history, and his collection of books was comparable to a large library.

"Oh, is that so? Little Feather, do you have time to teach me? I'd like to learn this method too." Xinghe, unsuspecting, expressed his desire to learn as well.

"Sure, but let's cook first, and I'll teach you before breakfast tomorrow morning, okay?" Li Xingyu looked at Xinghe's long, silver hair, which was like silk, and set a time.
