Luckily, Lu Jueyu has baking powder in her space. Although she cannot produce it herself, it can be purchased from the QQ Farm Store. With her wealth as a max-level account, she doesn’t have to worry about running out of money to buy things in the QQ farm store.
She had already filled a jar with baking powder in the morning, so at this time, she could use it without arousing Li Chenmo’s suspicion. When she melted the brown sugar with hot water, Li Chenmo watched her agile movements with interest.
After the sugar has melted, she sets it aside and mixes the flour with some baking powder. Once well mixed, she added the melted sugar while stirring the batter in one direction. She stirred for about twenty minutes, then filled the thinly oiled ceramic bowl with the batter until it was half full.
When all the ceramic bowls are filled, Lu Jueyu puts them in the steamer and steams them for twenty minutes. While waiting for the cake, she kept stirring the rest of the batter. This cake, the more you stir it, the better it turns out.
Seeing that there was a layer of sweat on her forehead, Li Chenmo took the big bowl and said, "Sit down and rest. Let me do it."
Lu Jueyu had a sore arm, so she let him do it, and the two sat side by side on a low stool. When the cake was steaming, she looked at Li Chenmo and asked, "Husband, do you regret marrying me?"
Li Chenmo was startled by her question and looked at her. Seeing only curiosity in her eyes, he let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He lowered his head and asked her, "Why did you ask this suddenly?"
"I’m just curious. You are a well-paid soldier, tall, handsome, kind, and capable. If it weren’t for me, you might find a good woman with a big background. Maybe even someone from the capital." Lu Jueyu said while thinking about the heroine.
Li Chenmo didn’t know why she suddenly thought of this, but he still answered her honestly, "I never regret it."
"Why?" She asked.
"For me, you are the best woman I have ever met. You will be my only wife, whether in this lifetime or the next. What’s more, I’m not as good as you think." he said with a smile, recalling the first time he met her.
At that time, she was just a one-month-old baby. He didn’t know what his feelings were for her at the time, but it was clear that he longed to be with her. Whenever she was around, he would feel the happiness and satisfaction that others could never bring him, as if the hole in his heart had finally been filled.
