Preliminary Study

The cosmos beyond the spaceship was a kaleidoscope of colors, a dreamlike vista.
Li Miaomiao and her daughter, Xu Lixing, sat sipping beverages, chatting.
"Cheer up, Lixing. I left your father to be with you. Don't mope all day," Li Miaomiao said, smiling. Xu Jingming's clone had spent too much time with her, causing Li Miaomiao to need some time away. Sometimes she deliberately abandoned her husband to spend time with her daughter!
"How can I be cheerful?" Xu Lixing clutched her cup. "Fangjin and Biyun have had a terrible falling out. My grandchildren are like enemies."
Li Miaomiao said, "On ancient Earth, it was common for brothers to feud over the throne. Our Xu family has too many resources, so our clansmen will naturally fight over them."
"But Fangjin and Biyun are biological siblings." Xu Lixing looked haggard. "The younger generation can quarrel or feud, but siblings should stay out of it. It hurts me most when they turn against each other."
