User 1873: I was inexplicably moved the moment I smelled this porridge. This is autumn, right?
Vivian: I'm completely in love with porridge now. Mianmian's porridge is not bland at all, it's refreshing and not greasy, and it's healthy and delicious. (Too bad I can't have it.)
[Youyunduo: Long time no see, anchor. I took my idiot cousin to Earth Planet to sketch a while ago. Is this casserole seafood porridge? It looks delicious. Sending you some fireworks.]
South China Tigers Never Go on Blind Dates: I'm alive again!!! Mianmian, it's been so long since we last met. Mianmian and her cubs are even cuter now.
It turned out that they went to the Grey Saturn to sketch, Gu Yumian thought, no wonder I haven’t seen these two familiar IDs for a long time.
"Welcome back." Gu Yumian bowed while holding the little snow leopard, smiled, and stirred the porridge in the casserole with a spoon. "Hmm... This porridge will be ready to drink in a while. Qiuqiu, come and help me take a look?"
Gu Yumian added bamboo shoots and lettuce just before the dish was ready. The fresh green color dotted the golden, tender red and glutinous white, adding an attractive color to the whole casserole seafood porridge.
Gu Yumian places his hopes for the next generation of cooking skills in his family on the little fox. Occasionally, when cooking, he will intentionally pass on some knowledge to Qiuqiu.
Gu Yumian folded a chef's hat out of paper and put it on the little fox's head. The little fox was a little nervous, shyly nodding seriously. Gu Yumian then held it and let it hold the long spoon handle with its two paws to stir the porridge.
"You have to stir the porridge frequently when cooking, otherwise it will easily become mushy and stick to the pot," Gu Yumian explained to the audience as he watched the little fox stir the porridge. "Then it won't taste good."
The little fox's technique was very similar to using a stirring rod to stir the solution in a beaker during an experiment. Coupled with its tense face and expression as if facing a great enemy, Gu Yumian couldn't help but rub its little head with laughter.
The panda cub had long been huddled beside the pot, drooling profusely, its round eyes bright. If Gu Yumian hadn't stopped it, it might have already buried its head in the casserole and gulped down its porridge. The little snow leopard had always been dismissive of the other two cubs, but in fact, it cared about them.
"Okay, that's enough." Gu Yumian turned off the fire and set the portable stove to keep warm mode. He poured a small bowl for each of the three children to warm their stomachs first. "Drink slowly, don't burn yourself."
The porridge cooked by Gu Yumian is absolutely delicious.
Just watching the fragrant porridge simmering on the stove, thick and bubbling, is a real treat. And drinking it from a small white porcelain bowl brings an indescribable sense of happiness and satisfaction.
——The rice grains are fully cooked until they are soft, fragrant and smooth, and are soaked with the freshness of shrimp and square fish. The whole taste is fragrant, refreshing and glutinous. After swallowing a mouthful of slightly hot porridge, the whole person is instantly healed.
Not to mention the shrimps and fried square fish with fried garlic slices wrapped in the porridge, which are tender yet crispy, and when you crunch them in your mouth, fragrant fresh juice flows out. The taste is neither bland nor overwhelming, and you can savor it for a long time after taking a sip.
Baby panda: “Bing!”
The chubby little glutinous rice dumpling clutched the spoon and bowl, kicking its short legs with joy. The little fox subtly wagged its tail, while the little snow leopard, head lowered, modestly finished its entire bowl of porridge, hinting at Gu Yumian for another.
Barrages gushed out layer by layer, and various gift special effects came one after another.
[audhkfi: !!! Damn, this porridge, these shrimp, this garlic…]
Lili: Ahhhhhhh what's going on?! It feels like Mianmian's cooking is getting better and better! I'm totally addicted to this porridge! It's so delicious I almost swallowed my tongue.
[Shuguang123: The fried square fish and shrimp in the porridge are so delicious, soft yet crispy, and so fragrant. I can't get enough! Hurry up, host, when does dinner officially start?]
Vivian: Sure enough, it tastes a hundred times better than I thought.
It is easy for porridge to become bland, and children like things with a more fragrant taste. It is not easy to strike the balance between being fresh and not greasy, but this pot of porridge has achieved it perfectly.
It has only been more than 20 minutes since the show started, and the number of viewers is now over 50 million and close to 60 million. Coupled with the special effects triggered by various gifts, there is a steady influx of traffic from various channels, further pushing up the overall popularity!
No wonder Tangtang said that the rules of the rookie competition have nothing to do with Gu Yumian - no matter what the rules are, it all comes down to popularity, and popularity is easy for Gu Yumian.
The live broadcast room firmly ranks first in all statistics of the rookie competition.
"Hmm, it's really quite good," Gu Yumian poured himself a bowl and was very satisfied with the taste. He commented to himself without being too modest, "It's delicious. Have my cooking skills really improved? I've never made porridge this delicious before."
Audience: "Hahaha, at least be modest, Mianmian is getting cocky." "Yes, your cooking skills have improved. I suggest you marry me!" "I heard that there's a chance to win porridge in the Elbet lottery. Bye everyone, I'm off..."
The little snow leopard particularly disliked seeing comments like "Marry me" and "Mianmian is my boyfriend" in the comments, and pressed Gu Yumian's cheek with its little paw unhappily.
"I'll steam the spareribs," Gu Yumian said as he took the little snow leopard's paw and pinched the pad of meat, "and fry the lotus shrimp, then we can start eating."
The recipe for steamed pork ribs with taro, a popular Cantonese dim sum dish, is simple, as the flavor is light. Cut the ribs into sections and rinse them under running water. Marinate with cornstarch, sugar, salt, and a little cooking wine. Finally, add minced garlic and steam in a bamboo basket.
"For Hibiscus shrimp, you need egg liquid and breadcrumbs," Gu Yumian said, "and wine. Marinating the meat with wine will make it taste better."
After the routine processing, Gu Yumian used a small knife to cut the synthetic shrimp into small grids, then put in ginger slices and green onion slices, poured a spoonful of rice wine to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor, and marinated them together.
Beat the egg liquid in a bowl, Gu Yumian picked up the shrimp with chopsticks and rolled them in the egg liquid, then evenly coated them with breadcrumbs, heated the oil in a pan directly, and fried the shrimp.
The hot oil sizzled with the shrimp in the wok, and the rice wine coating them instantly vaporized the moment they were added, sending white vapor mixed with a rich aroma rising. Under the light, the fried shrimp gradually took on a golden, slightly charred hue, and their aroma instantly captured everyone's attention.
Gu Yumian put the shrimp into the pot quickly and took them out quickly, and took them out of the pot directly when the shrimp tails changed color slightly.
The crispy golden lotus shrimps are still shining with hot oil on the surface and are neatly placed on the plate. Through the golden fried surface, you can peek into the firm and tender meat inside. The charred aroma is so delicious that it makes you salivate!
The spare ribs were just coming out of the oven. Steamed in lotus leaves with minced garlic, they were tender and flavorful, with a hint of taro, and the aroma was fragrant.
“…!!!!”
The baby panda had just finished his porridge. He looked up blankly, left and right, and blinked his black eyes. He didn't know which dish to covet.
The little fox was originally looking at the fire seriously, but as he was looking at it, he was attracted by the delicious food while holding his big tail. The little snow leopard actually picked up a lotus shrimp and ate it.
Gu Yumian was helpless: "...Tuantuan!"
"Don't you feel hot?" Gu Yumian pressed the snow leopard's chin, trying to see if its tongue was burned. Fortunately, it wasn't.
On the other hand, at this moment, the atmosphere of the barrage has reached an extreme level of enthusiasm.
[Puff: I'm about to pass out. I'm swallowing like crazy right now. My sister thinks I've turned into a zombie...]
[Boy B: Why do you keep updating my favorite menu every day? And what is this lotus shrimp? It's golden and fragrant, damn tempting.]
[A Rabbit Marshmallow: Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, I want those spare ribs!! Spare ribs!!! Mian mian mian mian, give them to me quickly, or I'll be mad!!!]
Countless comments streamed by, most of them urging Gu Yumian to eat faster. The three children looked very greedy, with the exception of the little snow leopard, the little fox, and the little glutinous rice dumpling, who had already finished their meal contentedly, all staring at Gu Yumian eagerly.
Of course, Gu Yumian quickened his pace to serve the food, carried the children to the dining room, placed the plates on the table one by one, turned on the ceiling lights and started eating - within just two minutes, the number of people in the live broadcast room soared by hundreds of thousands.
"Yuanyuan, don't bite your chopsticks." Gu Yumian rolled up his sleeves and picked up a piece of pork ribs for the children. "Try this first. The lotus shrimp is a little hot."
The taste of steamed spare ribs is completely different from the stewed and sauced spare ribs. The tender and smooth meat is elastic and melts in the mouth. The flavor of taro and lotus leaves is steamed in it, and the delicious and fragrant taste spreads between the lips and teeth, with an endless and long aftertaste.
With the steamed spare ribs as a foundation, the amazing taste of the lotus shrimp that follows is more natural.
The golden and crispy shrimps are dipped in a little salad sauce. When you bite into them, the skin is fragrant and crispy, and the shrimp meat, soaked in rich wine, is firm, tender and crispy. It is greasy and fragrant but not greasy at all...
After finishing his ribs and shrimp, the baby panda cupped his face in his paws, almost rolling around in bliss. The little fox chirped twice, clutching his spoon, a gentle, shy compliment. The little snow leopard, on the other hand, fiddled with the long spoon in the casserole, wanting more porridge after finishing his shrimp.
Gu Yumian was so adorable that her heart almost melted. She served the porridge and said, "There's still a lot. Eat slowly. If there's not enough, I'll make more."
At this time, the audience from the little fox's perspective can feel that the autumn wind is blowing as the summer turns cooler.
The crimson sunset covered the entire sky and earth, pouring in from the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Gu Yumian was still simmering the casserole porridge over low heat. The gurgling sound blended with the aroma of the porridge, lotus shrimp, and steamed spareribs, and intertwined with the smell of fallen leaves in the wind to form a unique scent of autumn.
The panda cub ate this and that, then happily ate his porridge from Gu Yumian's hand. The fox cub obediently helped Gu Yumian keep an eye on the temperature while he ate. The snow leopard cub lay in Gu Yumian's arms, lowering its head and biting the shrimp on Gu Yumian's chopsticks.
On an early autumn evening, the wind had just begun to blow. Spending a delicious dinner with my family, all my worries vanished. With every breath, I could feel the surge of happiness...
[Fushengwuliu: I'm new here. How come there are delicious food, handsome guys, cute girls, and such a great atmosphere here? I'm so satisfied!!!]
[Youyunduo: The porridge is fragrant and the rice is glutinous, the steamed spareribs are refreshing, and the lotus shrimp are crispy and tender. It's been a while since I last watched a live stream, and the host's cooking is getting better and better. The rhythm and atmosphere are also great. Thanks for the joy you brought me, and I'm sending you some fireworks!]
Berry: This is the legendary autumn, right? Autumn is all about grabbing the tail end of summer to eat super fresh food, then drinking hot porridge to nourish the stomach, and the whole family happily staying together to listen to the wind and watch the moon QAQ]
[Nori Loves Cats: My cat life is completely complete, I lie down happily]
It’s hard to tell which one has more comments or gifts, and the popularity keeps soaring.
When the time came, Gu Yumian's live broadcast room directly landed in the top three of the real-time popularity list on the homepage, and also rushed to the top of the total popularity list of the day, and then ushered in a new round of traffic surge!
After dinner, Gu Yumian took out a milk pan to heat milk for the children while diligently advertising the official Newcomer Tournament:
"While everyone is following me, if you have time, you can also follow the rookie competition, there are many interesting anchors."
The fact that the anchor was advertising for the official was very funny in itself. Everyone laughed at first, and then they realized that Gu Yumian was actually participating in the rookie competition?
Many viewers are new to the show and have no idea that Gu Yumian is a new anchor - with such popular data and such steady control ability, a new anchor?
It's a bit against the will of heaven.
At the Starry Sky headquarters, the official staff of Starry Sky who were also closely following Gu Yumian’s live broadcast couldn’t help but blush when they saw the barrage.
Tangtang sighed and leaned back a bit, holding the toast. The guys in charge of the rookie competition team sighed and joked with each other:
"Anchor Gu said you guys are the worst group of officials I've ever led."
"What can we do? He shouldn't have been allowed to participate in the rookie competition in the first place. His stats are already at the standard of a top streamer."
"Even top streamers might not be as consistent as him... As long as he's live for more than two hours, he's bound to top the charts. Can you believe it? Which top streamer could do that?"
The other new streamers weren't bad either, but they weren't as impressive as Gu Yumian. Even among the top twenty remaining after several rounds of screening, the other nineteen combined couldn't compare to Gu Yumian.
The live broadcast continues.
After dinner, the panda cub lay down contentedly, hugging its belly, and stared blankly at the little fox. The snow leopard cub yawned lazily; it was easy to get sleepy when the weather got cooler.
Gu Yumian added two small spoonfuls of sugar to the milk pot and stirred it again. He lowered his head and met the gaze of the little snow leopard. The little snow leopard looked at him for a while, then looked away awkwardly, looking depressed.
Gu Yumian: “?”
This little guy has been feeling this way since this afternoon, like a rebellious teenager. What's wrong with him?
It turns out that you can't discuss profound topics with children who are too young, Gu Yumian thought.
"We need to change the bath spray today. Take a bath, comb your hair, and go to bed early." Gu Yumian brought the milk to the table and picked up the two little fur balls lying on the sofa. "It's getting colder now, it's a good time to sleep."
[Xizimianmian: Sleeping... I want to have a sweet and fragrant sleep with the anchor. No other meaning, just sleeping! When can the anchor do a sleeping live broadcast?]
[Home in the Mine: Sleeping live broadcast? Damn, I actually want to watch it.]
Gu Yumian was helpless. What was this sleep livestream? Sometimes he really couldn't understand the audience's train of thought.
Bath powders for summer and winter are different. Summer bath powders often contain mint for a more refreshing feel, while autumn and winter bath powders should use milder flavors and ingredients. Also, with the change of seasons, it's time to switch from a cool mat to a mattress.
Autumn is a season when many things are quietly changing.
By this time, darkness had completely fallen, and the moon was getting rounder day by day. It was still a crescent moon hanging in the sky, and it would soon be full.
"Come and drink milk."
The small milk pot makes a ding-dong sound, and the milk is heated to the set temperature.
Gu Yumian brought the hot milk to the children. The little fox drank obediently from the cup. The panda cub and the snow leopard cub were waiting for Gu Yumian to feed them. The panda cub clung to Gu Yumian's hand and acted coquettishly. After receiving a cold glance from the snow leopard cub, the panda cub shrank back and burped a bit in fear.
Still very cute.
Gu Yumian: "..."
"Tuantuan is the oldest brother in the family," Gu Yumian pinched the little snow leopard's face and sighed, "Why are you still so childish?"
After the fox cub arrived, the little snow leopard's attention was distracted, and he wasn't as jealous of the panda cub as before, but he was still unwavering when it came to protesting. The little snow leopard nodded nonchalantly, not feeling childish or that he had done anything wrong.
Gu Yumian held all the little babies in her arms and fed them.
The baby panda rested contentedly in Gu Yumian's arms, stretching out its paws to reach for the moon in the sky, but was always puzzled as to why it couldn't lift it up. Gu Yumian brushed its fur with a small brush, then changed to a comb.
Little Tangyuan wasn't quite at the age of a panda, so his fur was relatively soft, though he'd shed some with the changing seasons. As Gu Yumian combed his hair, he'd combed out a small ball of fur. He balled it up and put it in a small bottle. When he had enough, he could make a small decoration.
After all, the children at home are all furry, and they shed a lot of fur during this season. Gu Yumian has already saved up several fur ball pendants for the little snow leopard, and one or two for the little fox as well.
The atmosphere was quiet, and the popularity of the live broadcast room continued to rise rapidly and quietly.
At this time, the number of people has exceeded 100 million.
Audiences who often watch live broadcasts have become familiar with each other. From the screen to outside the screen, the whole atmosphere is the same, calm and warm - this atmosphere often surprises new viewers, because they have never seen a live broadcast room with such high popularity and no violent or aggressive comments.
This livestream room is truly…amazing. Is everyone so friendly? The host seems pretty indifferent to the world, hahaha. He doesn't seek attention, ads, or gifts. He doesn't act like a popular host at all.
"I'm going to put away the quilts that have been dried in the sun." Gu Yumian rubbed the heads of the three children, "Would you like to go for a walk in the yard with me?"
The children certainly had no objections, and the new audience was even a little excited: what would the yard look like for a young owner who owns an entire Elbet restaurant?
Of course, it is not the same as the large swimming pool and Roman columns that new viewers might imagine. Gu Yumian's yard is really just an ordinary yard, with quilts drying on the ground, sweet osmanthus flowers drying on the ground, and a few clusters of platycodon flowers planted. The space is not big but it is well maintained.
“Hmm.”
The quilt already smelled like it had been exposed to the sun. The baby panda held the quilt, took a deep breath, and quickly rolled himself into the quilt, wrapping himself up like a little silkworm pupa.
Gu Yumian couldn't help but smile and squatted down to hug it.
At the same time, in the villa separated by a wall.
The renovation was just completed this afternoon, so it should take some time before people can move in. However, the person who rented this villa obviously does not have a normal mindset.
Gu Yumian's house shared a wall with the neighbors. At that moment, the black and white little creature had its ears pressed against the wall. It looked a bit like a wolf, but a bit more silly than a wolf.
I'm hungry.
I bit the brick, ate a few mouthfuls of dirt, and spit it out. It didn't taste very good.
There is the smell of food from the house next door.
The little guy had an intoxicated expression, a silly grin that was unique to Erha, and a snoring sound came from his throat. The little guy buried his head and dug in the soil. Soon he had dug a passage from his home to the next door.
It stuck its head into the passage, and although its body was stuck by the wall, it was still able to see the scene in the next yard.
“…”
The little snow leopard lay bored in Gu Yumian's arms, his eyes swept across the wall and stopped.
—Where did this stupid black and white thing come from?
The little snow leopard was quiet for a while, then the hair on its neck stood up in a circle and it quickly became alert.
You must, you must, you must not let Gu Yumian see this!
