Shrimp congee

In the past, for convenience's sake,

she hadn't livestreamed the cooking process directly.

She usually filmed it, then edited the footage into short videos and posted them on Y Cat.

As a result, plenty of anti-fans accused her of faking things and the like.

Now, though, she'd quit her job.

Time was the one thing she had.

She decided to clear her name of the "injustice."

After finding an angle, An Zhiwu secured her phone in a stand and started the livestream.

She turned to check the stream. Mm, the angle was perfect.

It captured her upper body as well as the cooking process.

As soon as the stream started, more than ten thousand people poured into her livestream room.

---I'm here, I'm here

---Are you livestreaming yourself throwing up again today?

---Hahahaha, the person above is killing me

---I want to see what stunt she's planning to pull today

---An'an, are you livestreaming yourself cooking today? Why is the camera in the kitchen?

---Tieba sent me here. I'm just curious what the streamer who makes herself throw up halfway through looks like.

---The comments are way too nasty, aren't they? She said last time that her stomach was upset, but you keep harping on about her making herself throw up.

---Her stomach was upset? How can she prove it?

---Where's the streamer? Come out and explain what you did last time, or I'll be your next anti-fan.

An Zhiwu ignored the comments.

She put on her little bunny apron.

First, she explained the vomiting that day to everyone in the livestream room. "Hi, everyone. I didn't stream yesterday because I went to the hospital for a gastroscopy. Sorry for making you worry. I picked up the results this afternoon, and I have chronic gastritis, so I can't eat irritating foods anymore. Starting today, I'm going to take care of my health~"

Worried that might cause a misunderstanding, she added, "Don't worry, I didn't get gastritis from livestreaming. It's because I haven't eaten breakfast since I was little, and I can't enjoy a meal without spicy food. I also eat cold things, and over time, I developed chronic gastritis."

---I knew it. How could An'an be making herself throw up? She's not one of those streamers who eat several pounds in one sitting

---Exactly! I think she just loves sharing good food. She never eats much each time

---Oh my god, I skip breakfast and love spicy food too

---I have this condition where I'm not hungry in the morning, but at night I'm so hungry I can't sleep

---Person above, did you install a camera on me?

---Me, me, me! I have chronic gastritis, and I burp all the time. I'm only 19

---Me too, and mine is atrophic gastritis. I lost 12 jin in two months

---Starting today, I'm going to take care of my health with the streamer~

An Zhiwu took out a cutting board and diced a carrot on it. "Since I'm only cooking for myself, I'm making a smaller portion. I only used half a carrot and three shiitake mushrooms. Dice the carrot and slice the mushrooms. I used seven shrimp, but you can adjust the amount as you like. I'm being a bit lazy, so I went straight for peeled shrimp."

"I've already marinated the shrimp in advance." With that, she held the marinated shrimp up to the camera.

---I never thought the day would come when I'd be learning to cook

---Is it normal for a grown man like me to be this engrossed?

---The person above is killing me. These days men have to know how to cook to get a wife [doge]

---The streamer's apron is so cute~

~~~

An Zhiwu continued what she was doing.

She poured a little oil into the pot, added the freshly cut carrot and mushrooms, and began stir-frying.

Once everything was evenly stir-fried, she added the rice and then the water. An Zhiwu explained to the viewers, "The ratio of rice to water is about 1:9. At this step, you have to turn the heat up high and keep stirring with a spoon until the boiling water cooks the rice to at least twice its original volume."

An Zhiwu stirred as she spoke.

In the meantime, she found a moment to check the comments and saw that they were all discussing food.

Only then did she feel reassured.

Once the rice had expanded, An Zhiwu put the lid on the clay pot. "All right, next we'll turn the heat down low and let it simmer for half an hour."

She left the clay pot to cook and started chatting with the viewers in the livestream room.

---I bet fifty cents An'an will definitely be a good wife and mother someday

---I want to see the finished dish

---An'an, are you never going to eat spicy food again?

Seeing that comment, An Zhiwu thought for a moment before replying, "Actually, I can't enjoy a meal without spicy food. But the doctor said today that if I don't start watching my habits, my gastritis will get worse and could even turn cancerous. So I won't eat overly spicy food anymore. Maybe once I'm better, I'll still add a chili or two to some dishes for flavor."

---Holy crap? Turn cancerous?

---Honestly, I always treat what doctors say like a fart. I didn't expect the streamer to be so obedient

---You just haven't felt how miserable gastritis is. I feel like I'm burping every moment I'm awake

---An'an, take care of yourself~ But isn't a gastroscopy really painful?

An Zhiwu felt she was in a good position to answer that question. "I had a capsule gastroscopy. You just drink lots of water, swallow the capsule, and lie on a machine for the exam for a few dozen minutes. It doesn't hurt at all, so cuties, if your stomach feels uncomfortable, get a gastroscopy as soon as possible~ It's not that scary."

As they chatted, half an hour passed.

An Zhiwu turned off the heat and left it covered for another five minutes.

When she lifted the lid off the clay pot, the congee inside had cooked until thick.

An Zhiwu poured in the various ingredients and put the lid back on.

The viewers in the livestream room couldn't wait to see the finished dish.

After all, they usually watched edited short videos; this was their first time watching the whole process live.

A little while later,

An Zhiwu lifted the clay pot's lid.

The congee in the pot was ready, and its fragrance could be smelled through the screen.

---I'm drooling~

---Suddenly the instant noodles in my hand don't smell good at all

---I quietly opened Meituan

---55555, I really want to make it, but I don't have time

---It looks delicious even through the screen

An Zhiwu poured out the finished shrimp congee, saying as she did, "I'll post the steps on the platform in a little while. You can save them first and try it when you have time later~"

With that, she moved her phone to the bedroom.

An Zhiwu had previously arranged her bedroom, setting aside an area specifically for livestreaming.

Now she held her shrimp congee, eating as she chatted with the viewers in the livestream room.

---Shut up and let me eat!

---An'an is so good at taking care of a home. I want her to be my wife so badly, then I could eat delicious food every day

---Ahhhhhh, even though I'm a woman, I want her to be my wife too

---I'm banging into a wall over and over for An'an
