Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 141

When Lu Jueyu heard Li Chenmo’s words, she smiled and said, "Husband, I’m not that weak. I can still do this kind of work."

"Mhmm. I know you can, but I can’t bear to let you do it." Li Chenmo nodded and said lightly.

Hearing his words, Lu Jueyu was a little dumbfounded. Her husband dotes on her so much. If this continues, she may become a spoiled girl who can’t do anything in the future. Watching him work, she chuckled and said, "One day, I will be spoiled rotten by you."

"That would be great. In this way, you can’t live without me." Li Chenmo muttered in a low voice.

"Huh? What did you say?" Lu Jueyu was unable to hear what he said and asked.

"It’s nothing. Go in and warm yourself up. Although it’s almost the beginning of spring, the weather is still cold. Don’t catch a cold." Li Chenmo said, motioning for her to go in.

At his urging, Lu Jueyu could only leave the work to him and go to the kitchen. As the Lantern Festival approaches, she plans to make jujube cakes or dumplings to sell in the market. But before selling, she had to let her husband try it. Whenever she thought of Li Chenmo’s grievance when he learned about the empanadas, she couldn’t help but smile. She didn’t expect him to be so cute.

Lu Jueyu heard the sound of chopping from the front yard, so she took out a bag of jujube from her space. As for brown sugar, eggs, oil, and flour, she has them all in the kitchen. Recalling the recipes, she prepared the ingredients for five recipes. First, she washed and steamed 500 grams of jujube.

Ten minutes later, she took the jujubes out of the steamer, removed the seeds, poured a little water, and pureed them into jujube paste.

Then, she put about 400 grams of jujube paste into a bowl and added 100 grams of olive oil. After stirring until well combined, she sets it aside to cool. Afterward, she used a large bowl and cracked 15 eggs into it. She put 350 grams of brown sugar through a sieve into the bowl and whisked until the mixture was thick and tripled in volume.

She raised the egg beater and saw that the tip of the mixture was a little stiff, so she sifted 400 grams of low-gluten flour into the mixture and gently folded it with a spatula until the flour was fully mixed. She then added the jujube paste to the mixture and continued to fold the mixture until well blended.

When the batter was ready, she took out a few bowls and greased them with some oil so the cakes wouldn’t stick to the bowl later. She poured the batter into the bowl and dropped the bowl several times to remove any air bubbles. She then puts it in a bamboo steamer and steams it over medium heat for twenty minutes.

While the jujube cake was steaming, she prepared the dumpling wrappers. Twenty minutes later, she examined the cake and stabbed it with a small stick. Seeing that the cake was ready, she took it out of the steamer and boiled a pot of water for Li Chenmo.

Not long after the water boiled, Li Chenmo walked into the kitchen. Different from others, their kitchen is larger, more than twenty square meters. So, even though it contained a couple of stoves, a long table and a few cupboards, it was quite spacious.
