Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

Chapter 51 The 51th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person

The steps for making hand-pulled noodles are very simple.

First, mix flour and salt in a 40:1 ratio. Li Xingyu did this very easily.

Then add a few eggs and water to form a dough. When it came time for Li Xingyu to knead the dough, Xinghe took over. If the kneading wasn't done properly, the dough wouldn't taste good.

Xinghe kneaded the flour into a smooth dough as Li Xingyu requested.

Xinghe looked at the dough in his hands with a look of surprise. Tian Shu had already washed the vegetables and came over, looking at the dough on the counter with curiosity, and even poked it with his hand.

It's worth mentioning that Tian Shu also uses a hoverboard, but his is clearly better looking and performs better than Li Xingyu's.

"How amazing, how did you do that?" Tian Shu looked at Xing He and Li Xing Yu with eyes full of curiosity as he watched the small pits slowly springing back on the dough.

Xinghe's eyes also lit up, filled with curiosity. After all, he was the one who kneaded the dough, and the feeling was indescribably wonderful.

Li Xingyu gestured to Xinghe to bring a large basin to cover the dough, twitched the corner of her mouth, and looked at the several pairs of eyes full of curiosity.

Ok? !

Several pairs of eyes!

Li Xingyu was almost caught off guard. Looking at the kitchen full of people, she paused for a moment, then gave them a sweet smile and greeted them: "Good morning, Great-Grandma, Grandma, Grandpas."

That's right, Grandma Li and the others came back after exercising in the morning, all wearing combat uniforms, their body lines on full display.

Li Xingyu looked at her grandfathers, whose muscles were clearly defined and whose figures were exactly the same as in the videos of them when they were young, and then looked at her great-grandmother and grandmother, whose bodies were soft and graceful with two tails hanging down behind them. She was hit with a critical hit.

Grandma Li and Grandma Li have the same shape for their tails, but they are different colors. Grandma Li's tail is pink, and Grandma Li's tail is black.

Li Xingyu remembered that her mother's tail was milky white.

The girls in their family all have tails shaped like scorpion stingers, consisting of ten rounded ellipsoids about the same diameter as Li Xingyu's wrist.

The tail is now in its normal state, a sphere that is slightly longer than the other ellipsoids. The barbs and other barbs have been retracted, and the whole tail is full of power.

Li Xingyu glanced at the tails of Great-Grandma Li and Grandma Li several times. Yesterday, both of them were wearing loose clothes and skirts, so she didn't see them.

Looking at the dashing and charismatic elders in front of her, Li Xingyu was starting to lose her composure.

"Waaah, before, it was one thing to be inferior to the elderly above and the young below, but now that she has no young below, she can't even compare to her great-grandmother who's over nine thousand years old."

"Before, her grandparents, who were over seventy, would go up a mountain over a hundred meters high to chop firewood. They could carry dozens of kilograms of firewood back to their home two or three kilometers away. She carried nothing but her phone, working herself to the bone, and her grandparents had to stop and wait for her."

"She climbed a mountain three or five hundred meters high with her parents, uncles, and aunts. She was panting like a broken bellows, but they were chatting and laughing. Her mother and aunts were even wearing high heels."

As for younger siblings, nephews, and nieces, oh, never underestimate a child's physical strength and their ever-growing minds.

Now, Great-Grandma and Grandma are brimming with energy and in high spirits; Grandpas have bulging muscles and bright, piercing eyes; not to mention her parents, who are in their prime; her older brothers and sisters, and Xinghe Tianshu, are still growing, each one like a young poplar tree.

"Waaaah, so I'm the weakest in this family, huh? Even when Haoyue shrinks to her smallest size, she still has claws and teeth."

Li Xingyu's dazed mutterings reached the ears of everyone present, including everyone in the three live-streaming rooms.

Grandma Li and Grandma Li also started a live stream. Their mental energy fluctuations were quite active in the morning, after all, they had just woken up.

"Pfft~" "Cough cough" "Ha!"

Immediately, a burst of suppressed laughter echoed from the kitchen, and even the comments in the three live stream rooms became strange and fewer.

Hearing Grandma Li and the others suppressing their laughter, Li Xingyu uttered two words in a low voice: "Breakfast."

The laughter stopped abruptly, and silence fell over both Grandma Li and the live stream chat. There were no more comments in the chat.

Li Xingyu grasped the situation precisely and perfectly, crossed her arms, stepped on the hoverboard, leaned against the kitchen counter, looked at the people in the kitchen, and snorted coldly.

Then, Delas, who was closest to Li Xingyu, scooped her up in his arms and nuzzled her face against his, saying ingratiatingly, "Oh my, little feather, you look so beautiful this morning! Come here, let Grandpa Delas give you a kiss. Beautiful, lovely, kind, and generous little feather, we were wrong, please forgive us~"

The live streamers showered the viewers with gifts and tips, ignoring Xiao Buxiao and relentlessly praising and apologizing to Li Xingyu.

Li Xingyu's previous momentum was completely ruined. Helplessly, she pushed Delas's face with her hand: "Alright, Grandpa Delas, you just finished exercising. You should stop now, or you really won't get breakfast."

Having just finished exercising, covered in sweat and feeling hot all over, Li Xingyu had dried her face. To put it simply, if it weren't for the good material of her combat suit, she would have already gone back to her room to shower.

The interstellar combat suits are made of a special material that possesses extremely strong defensive capabilities and elasticity, conforming to the body's curves and covering the body without hindering movement.

Combat suits are designed for the battlefield and have an air circulation system, but you will still sweat if you exercise to a certain extent.

Knowing when to stop, Delas carefully placed Li Xingyu back onto the hoverboard: "Hehe, little feather, so why did the flour turn into something else?"

So they arrived while she was kneading the dough, keeping quiet and making fun of her. Li Xingyu glanced at Delas: "Oh? Do you want a serious answer or an unserious one?"

Delas smiled and asked, "What's so improper about it?"

Li Xingyu stroked her chin and said, "I don't know."

Delas choked, wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say.

"Ahem, little feather, we were wrong, please forgive us~" Grandma Li smiled and stepped in to smooth things over, seeing that Delas was rarely speechless.

"I'm not angry anymore. Wasn't it Grandpa Delas who wanted to hear some nonsense? This is it." Li Xingyu blinked her big golden eyes, looking completely innocent.

"Little Feather, I'm sorry, so what's the proper answer?" Xinghe tugged at the hem of Li Xingyu's T-shirt, apologized softly, and then looked at her again with curious eyes, asking the question.

Li Xingyu yawned lazily and pouted: "Flour is mainly composed of protein, fat, carbohydrates and dietary fiber."

"The step we just did is called kneading dough. Kneading dough is the process of integrating carbohydrates and fiber."

"When starch is exposed to water, the proteins inside coagulate and break down or decompose the water. The gluten, or fiber, is destroyed. The starch absorbs a large amount of water and swells, turning into a paste. It also breaks down into monosaccharides and disaccharides, so flour becomes dough."

"Well, did you understand? Wasn't that serious?" Li Xingyu raised her chin, looking at the stunned and bewildered crowd.

"Ah... haha, that's quite serious." Delas was silent for a moment, then gave Li Xingyu a dry reply.

Qin Fengshi, Xinghe, Ryan, and Rice seemed to be deep in thought. So that's how it is. They hadn't paid attention to these things before, but out of interest, they still had some knowledge of chemistry.

The dough needs to rest for fifteen minutes. Li Xingyu asked Xinghe to slice the lean meat and marinate it for a while.

Grandma Li and the others went back to take a shower and change their clothes, leaving their levitation spheres behind.

Li Xingyu looked at the three floating spheres, waved her hand, and let them do whatever they wanted, as long as they didn't bother her.

Chop the scallions and bok choy as needed, and prepare the seasonings.

Then just wait for the dough to rise.

With nothing else to do, Li Xingyu would watch the comments and answer their questions.

Some of them have been following Li Xingyu since the beginning of the show, and they're quite pleased with themselves now.

[Hehehe, this morning I went grocery shopping with His Highness and made breakfast along with him. I refuse to believe I can't taste the same food as His Highness.]

"Wow~ This audience member is really amazing. I think you can succeed. Keep it up!" Li Xingyu encouraged them with a smile. "Come and learn, so I can eat hot meals outside as soon as possible."

Some viewers were interested in Xinghe and Tianshu, having met them before. They weren't particularly interested in their identities, but rather in their relationship with Li Xingyu.

[Your Highness, are the two people beside you your guardians? Have you chosen your guardians yet? Aren't two too few?]

Looking at these comments, Li Xingyu glanced at Xinghe and Tianshu beside her. The two of them unconsciously straightened their backs, looking somewhat uneasy.

Li Xingyu glanced at the two of them, didn't refute, gave a brief answer, and then moved on: "Yes, they're still choosing, there are more than two."

Xinghe and Tianshu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and exchanged the same question: "You're a candidate too?"

Clearly, neither of them had told the other the news, and then they both looked at Li Xingyu, their eyes softening.

Their identities are too sensitive, basically disqualifying them from being heirs to large families. Furthermore, most of their work is confidential, and some things cannot be known to others.

The remaining people either weren't qualified enough, their personalities were simply incompatible, or their pool of potential candidates exceeded the number they could accept.

Therefore, Xinghe only appeared on the candidate list for the first time now that he has come of age, while Tian Shu was chosen because of his age and his own thoughts.

Li Xingyu was selectively answering some questions while watching the live chat. She had just adjusted the height of the hoverboard, and now she was sitting on it, gently swinging her legs, looking incredibly relaxed and at ease.

While Li Xingyu was interacting with her viewers in her live stream, Grandma Li and the others had already tidied themselves up and sat down in the restaurant, watching Li Xingyu's video and their own comments with great interest.

Li Xingyu, Xinghe, and Tian Shu stayed in the kitchen, chatting every now and then.

Li Xingyu had already told Xinghe how long it would take for the dough to rise, and told him to keep an eye on the time.

When Xinghe said it was time, Li Xingyu took out a two-in-one rolling pin from her storage space and asked Xinghe to wash and dry it.

Then Li Xingyu divided the dough and rolling pin into two portions, and had Xinghe and Tianshu roll the rested dough into thin sheets.

In Li Xingyu's live stream, the people who were with her were dumbfounded. What was this round stick? When did the little princess prepare it? She didn't tell them that she was going to prepare this.

"Ahem, Little Feather/Star..." Tian Shu and Xing He couldn't stand it anymore and reminded Li Xingyu to look at the comments in the live stream.

Li Xingyu was intently observing the dough when, following the two people's reminders, she looked up at the barrage of comments and was immediately dazzled by the rapidly scrolling barrage and the colorful gift effects.

Li Xingyu quickly slowed down the barrage of comments, then saw the screen filled with questions like, "What are the rolling pins Xinghe and Tian Shu are holding? Where can I buy them?"

"Ahem, sorry, I forgot to tell you, this is called a rolling pin. I bought mine from the official store of the research department. It's a replica of a tool from Earth. You can go and take a look." Li Xingyu was a little embarrassed because this was something she had bought before and kept in her storage space. She had just used it and hadn't expected that other people didn't have one.

[Waaaaah~ Your Highness, sold out! There's nothing left.]

[Your Highness~ We're out of rolling pins. We checked the official website, and the newest ones are still being manufactured. Waaah!]

At this point, a flood of complaints appeared on the screen. The items restored by the research department would be sold in their official store, since the funding required for scientific research is astronomical.

Although the alliance has approved funding, there are still other sources of income, but the audience for these research results is not very large.

The research department will release information about its findings and then list them on the store. The products will be priced according to cost, and the inventory will be adjusted based on the sales volume of the first month.

They don't know how to use rolling pins, but they are very cheap and inexpensive, usually around twenty star coins, and the price varies depending on the material.

She bought it because she thought it was fun, and sales were sluggish, so there wasn't much stock left. In no time, it was sold out.

Three minutes ago, Jingyuan, the shop manager of the research department, checked the sales of the products in the shop as usual, and happened to flip to the section on wood products.

Seeing that the rolling pins had suddenly run out, Jingyuan was completely bewildered. Then he saw Yushan, the official website administrator, walk in from outside with a strange look on his face.

Just then, Jingyuan saw Yushan enter and was about to ask what had happened.

Then he asked, "Jingyuan, do you still have any rolling pins in stock?"

Jingyuan looked bewildered, but his professionalism compelled him to answer: "No, our products are automatically replenished by simply listing the inventory. They were all sold out just now."
