Me and My Two Bosses' Systems

"Hmm, Little Feather is so skillful, I like her very much. Thank you for your hard work, Little Feather." Grandma Li looked at her current appearance carefully in the mirror and patted Li Xingyu's hand beside her.

Her hair was styled in an unusual updo on top of her head, which unexpectedly gave her a kind and dignified appearance. Paired with gold hair accessories inlaid with rubies and sapphires, she looked grand, dignified, and elegant.

Because the hairstyle was done with real hair, and due to time constraints, Li Xingyu's hairstyle was relatively simple. The hair clips and small elastics were created by condensing her spiritual energy, as they were not yet available for sale on the Star Network.

She wore a white-lined coat with a maroon jacket printed with a phoenix pattern resembling one from legend, a skirt printed with many different golden birds, and dark red cloth shoes adorned with pearls.

The coat... Oh, Little Feather said it was an outer robe, with a circle of round white pearls sewn on the shawl, and a golden gourd-shaped metal block attached to the back, with a carving on it that Little Feather called "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Auspiciousness," and a large pearl and a tassel about fifteen centimeters long attached to the bottom.

Grandma Li lifted her skirt slightly, twirled around slowly, and said with even greater satisfaction, "Little Feather, come here, is there anything you want? Grandma will buy it for you."

"Huh? Something you want? There isn't anything~" Li Xingyu was a little confused by her great-grandmother's question. After thinking for a moment, she couldn't find anything she wanted.

Clothes? We already have them, and we'll keep having them in the future.

A car? She's a minor now, she can't drive, so buying one wouldn't be of any use.

A house? She's a minor now, so even if she bought one, it wouldn't be registered in her name.

Food? There isn't any here, you'll have to make it yourself.

Fun things? Hmm... There aren't any here, but now that she's here, there should be some.

Um…………

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Right now, I want to be a happy little salted fish. When I grow up, I'll be a big salted fish. As long as I improve the quality of food, drink, and entertainment here, I can enjoy life.

Moreover, with just a little inspiration, many related things will quickly spring up like mushrooms after rain. The interstellar people aren't brainless; they're quite intelligent.

"No? Then when you come of age, how about Great-Grandma gives you an undeveloped little planet? Little Feather can go on adventures and treasure hunts there with your guardian or others." Great-Grandma Li didn't say anything after hearing Li Xingyu's answer, but she thought about it and decided to give Li Xingyu a planet.

"Huh? A planet? No need." Li Xingyu was startled. Wait, are all interstellar gifts this high-class? A planet!

"Oh, it's alright, it's just a planet. If you like it, I'll give you one too. Little Feather, you'd better hurry up, I can't wait any longer." Seeing that Li Xingyu was thinking of continuing to talk with her great-grandmother, Li Xinghua quickly diverted her attention.

For some reason, Li Xinghua always felt a strange and wonderful feeling about the clothes designed by Li Xingyu, as if she had met an old friend she hadn't seen in a long time, which is why she always seemed a little eager.

"Alright, I'm coming." Li Xingyu controlled the hoverboard to walk towards Li Xinghua. She had already separated all her clothes one by one and was figuring out how to put them on.

She can't even dress herself, can she? Although Yin Lian's words make sense, she can not only wear her hair down, but also tie it into a ponytail, and she knows three styles: high, medium, and low. Li Xinghua grumbled inwardly, feeling unconvinced.

Li Xinghua was wearing a short vest and tight shorts. Li Xingyu directly told her which one to wear first, letting Li Xinghua dress herself while she did her hair.

Because the Qi-waist ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress) that Li Xinghua was wearing had a cross-collar and a rather dashing black and red color scheme, Li Xingyu styled her hair into a high ponytail in an ancient style, and then added a hair crown and hairpins. The hairstyle was perfect.

Under Li Xingyu's guidance, Li Xinghua successfully put on the outfit.

Li Xinghua looked at herself in the mirror and nodded. Although the clothes were a bit troublesome to put on, they were undeniably beautiful.

Her straight golden hair was half tied up, with a few wisps of hair left on her forehead. She parted her hair to the sides and added a thin braided rope to her forehead. The ends of the rope were left on her ears and hung down her shoulders. The tassels, forcibly attached by gravity, swayed in front of her chest.

The red upper garment was plain, while the black cross-collar featured a dragon made of lines, and the black skirt also featured an enlarged version of the dragon from the cross-collar.

Li Xinghua wore black armor that covered half her forearm and black boots. Her entire demeanor, if she didn't speak and just held a weapon, would make her a dashing and aloof female warrior.

After helping Li Xinghua tidy up her clothes, Li Xingyu put away her hoverboard, then took her clothes to a room and went inside to change.

"Wow~ Little Feather looks so pretty in this outfit. It has lotus flowers and leaves printed on it, as well as pearls. It really gives off a summery vibe." Li Xinghua was still admiring her outfit. When Li Xingyu was changing clothes, she not only took a lot of photos of herself, but also dragged her great-grandmother Li to take quite a few photos as well.

Li Xingyu was wearing the finished product that Lost had shown her before, and she felt quite good wearing it now.

A tank top with boxer pleats paired with a pleated skirt and a Changgan Temple jacket is the perfect match, especially since they're in the same color family, giving off a strong summer vibe.

Li Xingyu styled her hair, putting it all up in a bun. She would be cooking later, so it would be more convenient to put it all up. Then she put on a few hair accessories, one of which had tassels that swayed slightly with her movements.

"Yes, Great-Grandma is right, Little Feather is so skillful." Li Xinghua looked at Li Xingyu, who had changed her clothes, for a long time before saying this.

"Pfft~ Alright, let's hurry up and go out. I bet Grandpa Hifier and the others have already prepared the ingredients." Li Xingyu walked to the door, opened it, and turned back to smile at Li Xinghua and Grandma Li.

"Huh? Father Lost? What brings you here?" Li Xinghua's surprised voice answered Li Xingyu.

"Hmm? Father Lost?" Li Xingyu followed Li Xinghua's gaze and turned to look at the door.

As expected, it was Lost. He stood blankly at the door, his eyes fixed on Li Xingyu, whose hand was still on the doorknob and whose hand was still in the position of knocking.

“Dad Lost, what are you doing here?” Li Xingyu tugged at the hem of Lost’s clothes, who was not moving.

"Hmm? Oh, Father Hiffel and the others have already prepared the ingredients. I came to check on you and let you know." Lost snapped out of his reverie when he felt Li Xingyu's slight pressure.

“Little Feather, you two look so good in these clothes, they seem so natural on you.” Lost couldn’t help but say this as he looked at the clothes on Li Xingyu, Li Xinghua, and Grandma Li.

"Hmph, that's right. No one is more suited to Hanfu than the people of Earth, because it was left by our ancestors." Li Xingyu proudly raised his head, looked at Lost who was squatting down, looked into his azure eyes, and said with utmost seriousness.

"..." Lost looked at Li Xingyu's eyes, which were like the sun, filled with seriousness and pride, and was speechless.

"Alright, didn't you say the ingredients were all prepared? I'll go to the kitchen now. We must get dinner ready before Grandpa Zian comes back." Li Xingyu looked at Lost, who was squatting motionless with his mouth slightly open at the door, and asked with some confusion.

"Okay, let's go." Lost looked at Li Xingyu in front of him, wanting to ruffle her hair, but when his gaze fell on Li Xingyu's hairstyle, he turned his hand, patted her shoulder, and turned to walk outside.

"Great-Grandma, Sister, I'm going to cook. Please make yourselves at home." Li Xingyu followed behind Lost, greeted Great-Grandma Li and Li Xinghua, and then walked briskly outside.

Li Xinghua and her great-grandmother exchanged a glance and walked towards the door in unison. Of course, new clothes should be shown off, especially since they are so beautiful. It would be embarrassing not to show them off.

"Little Feather, this outfit really suits you." As soon as Li Xingyu entered the living room, she heard Xifeier's deep, magnetic voice praising her Hanfu.

"Of course, what clothes don't I look good in?" Li Xingyu turned to look at the sofa in the living room and saw Xifeier and her group sitting on the sofa, answering Xifeier's compliment with her hands on her hips.

As Li Xingyu spoke, she lifted her skirt and twirled around. The skirt fluttered and danced in the wind, and the tassels on her hairpins swayed gently with her movements. The wide sleeves of her light and flowing Changgan Temple jacket also danced in a beautiful arc. She wore a pair of white printed cloth shoes, which were faintly visible among the fluttering skirt.

Three hovering spheres circled around Li Xingyu. Li Xingyu had just asked them to take pictures of the kitchen. After Xifeier and the others finished preparing the ingredients, they went to sit in the living room. The three hovering spheres followed them out and kept flying around the living room.

Upon seeing Li Xingyu, the three floating spheres immediately flew over. The viewers in the three live streams were originally sending comments to complain about Li Xingyu, but upon seeing Li Xingyu's current appearance, they forgot what they were about to do and were all filled with envy and praise. Unfortunately, none of the three people read the comments.

"Right?" Li Xingyu turned around, smiling at the people sitting on the sofa, then walked towards the kitchen, leaving behind the words, "I'm going to cook. Xinghe and Tianshu, come and help."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Hiffel smiled and shook his head, then looked at Xinghe and Tianshu, who were still standing there, and said with a smile, "Aren't you going yet?"

Upon hearing Xifei'er's words, Xinghe and Tianshu finally snapped out of their daze. Their ears instantly turned red, and they followed Li Xingyu toward the kitchen in a flustered manner.

"Little Star, what can we do to help you?" Tian Shu asked, watching the tassels swaying with Li Xingyu's movements.

"You two worked together very well at noon. There are quite a lot of dishes tonight, and I might not have enough time to prepare them all by myself," Li Xingyu explained, turning to look at the two people behind her.

“Okay, we will help Xiao Yu Mao properly. Shall we start now?” Xinghe and Tian Shu walked side by side, following Li Xingyu toward the kitchen.

Upon entering the kitchen, Li Xingyu looked at the pile of prepared ingredients and nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright, let's begin now." Li Xingyu stepped onto her hoverboard again, washed her hands, and announced the start.

Several dishes tonight require a relatively long cooking time, including blanching and stewing. We need to pay attention to the heat and cooking time.

Li Xingyu put the chicken into a pot, added cold water and crushed ginger and scallions to stew it, and then began to explain to the three floating balls that flew over with her: "Put the prepared chicken into the pot, add cold water that covers the chicken by about three centimeters, along with ginger and scallions to blanch it, and soak the cleaned bamboo fungus in salt water as well."

Then, while explaining, Li Xingyu told Tian Shu to keep an eye on the time: "After the water boils for five minutes, take the chicken out and put it into this special soup pot. Add water that covers the chicken by about seven centimeters. Simmer over low heat for two hours, then add red dates and goji berries and continue to simmer."

Li Xingyu also prepared a few red dates and some goji berries, intending to put them in together: "Tian Shu, just add the things in according to the time. If you have them, put them in; if you don't, you don't have to."

Li Xingyu spoke to the floating ball, then gestured to Tian Shu to look at the bamboo fungus soaking in salt water, which had already had its heads and tails removed: "After adding red dates and goji berries, simmer for another twenty minutes, then add the bamboo fungus, simmer for another ten minutes, then add some salt, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and it's ready to serve. It's quite simple and convenient to do."

Tian Shu carefully noted down the time point Li Xingyu mentioned, then checked the time. Hmm, 17:32, there was plenty of time, so they didn't need the time accelerator. No wonder Xiao Xingxing asked us for help.

Time accelerators are useful, but you shouldn't rely on them too much. It's fine to use them when you don't have time, but when you do have time, it's more enjoyable to appreciate the results of your waiting.

"Next up is the braised beef brisket with potatoes. Xinghe, come here, I'll tell you the steps." Li Xingyu gestured for Xinghe to come over, while she went to another pot and put all the necessary ingredients aside.

“牛肉和土豆2：1的重量比例准备好，然后是调料，料酒、大葱、姜、花椒、 八角、盐、味精、油以5：5：5：2：1：3：2：10比例准备好。其中油和土豆的比例是1：12.5，具体的数据你们自己解决嗷。”黎星羽一边准备调料，一边向悬浮球讲话。

She had promised to teach them, so she wanted to teach them properly. She really wanted to use words like "appropriate amount," "a little bit," or "small amount," but she felt that the interstellar people who could blow up the kitchen just by making a nutritious porridge might not understand. She decided to wait until they got used to it before using those words. For now, she would just use the standard weighing method.

Yes, Li Xingyu prepared the ingredients while Xinghe brought a small scale to weigh them on the spot. She did a similar procedure yesterday, and she was very unaccustomed to it.

"First, blanch the beef, which has already been cut into chunks, in boiling water and then remove it. Wash the potatoes, peel them, cut them into small pieces, and soak them in water. Slice the ginger and cut the scallions into sections. My family, Xinghe, and Tianshu have already done these steps, except for blanching the beef. So let's move on to the next step." Li Xingyu asked Xinghe to blanch the beef, and praised the person who had just been preparing the ingredients to the people in the live stream.

"Then, heat some oil in the pot, add the beef and stir-fry to remove the surface moisture, then add water and various seasonings, bring to a boil over high heat, skim off the foam, and then turn to low heat." After Xinghe had cooked the beef, Li Xingyu explained as she stir-fried it. After Xinghe finished cooking the beef, she let Xinghe do it while she watched from the side.

"When the beef is about 80% cooked—you can tell by poking it with chopsticks; if they go in easily, it's almost done. Don't poke too hard; just like when you're drinking a nutritional supplement and bring the glass tube to your mouth. Then add the potato chunks and continue simmering until the potatoes are flavorful and tender. Then, transfer it to a soup bowl, and the beef and potato stew is ready." Li Xingyu explained the precautions to Xinghe while worrying about the people in her live stream, fearing that a few more might blow up the kitchen or get food poisoning.
