Chapter 142 Make a Cake Yourself

Du Yuwei sat up from the sofa, stretched and rubbed her eyes.

"Husband, I actually slept for more than two hours, but now I feel much better."

Ji Mingxuan fondly touched the top of Du Yuwei's hair and said with a smile: "The babies are already well, so you can rest assured and have a good rest. My parents have also gone back to rest. They have been very tired these two days. "

Du Yuwei nodded and leaned on the sofa.

"Husband, I think I will go back to Jiangnan University tomorrow. The baby is fine. It's time for me to go back and submit my resignation report. Otherwise, the longer it takes, the more trouble I will have."

"Okay, then I'll take you there tomorrow morning."

The room was relatively sunny, with warm sunlight shining on the floor. Ji Mingxuan pushed the crib to where the sun could shine, so that the sun could reach the babies' bodies.

"These three little guys don't go out much, so it's good to get some sunshine and get some calcium."

After the three little darlings unlocked the ability to turn over, they felt it was very novel. They just got up and couldn't hold back the ancient power in their bodies on the small bed. They turned over from time to time and had a great time.

Du Yuwei looked at them and said with a smile: "I really don't feel anything bad at ordinary times, but when they get sick, adults' hearts are hung up, and we wish all the discomfort would be transferred to us. Fortunately, they got better soon." , otherwise I would feel very uncomfortable. Husband, thanks to you taking good care of the baby these two days, I can’t imagine how busy I would be if I took care of the three of them by myself. "

"As a father, I should take care of the baby. Are you hungry? I'm going to make some food. We are not going anywhere today. We are just playing with the baby at home."

Just as Ji Mingxuan was about to get up and go to the kitchen to cook, he was pulled by Du Yuwei and had to sit on the sofa again.

Putting Du Yuwei's little head in his arms, Ji Mingxuan asked warmly: "What's wrong?"

"I'm not hungry yet and have no appetite. Just sit here for a while."

Du Yuwei couldn't explain her mood at the moment. It seemed that after her baby's illness, she was a little sentimental and worried about gains and losses.

"Okay, then tell me when you are hungry and I will cook for you. Weiwei, is there something on your mind? I feel like you are a little unhappy."

Ji Mingxuan worriedly held Du Yuwei's face and kissed her forehead gently.

"It's nothing, I just feel uncomfortable for no reason."

Du Yuwei sighed in frustration.

"When you are in a bad mood, you will feel better if you eat some sweets. Just wait while I make you a cake?"

Du Yuwei was surprised: "You can also make cakes?"

"Of course, I happen to have the ingredients at home. I'll make one simply. I'm sure you'll feel much better after eating it."

Ji Mingxuan has the skills of a master chef, so making a small cake is definitely a piece of cake.

Ji Mingxuan searched around the house for a while, and soon found all the ingredients for making a cake and placed them on the big coffee table in the living room. While making the cake, he could talk to his wife and make Weiwei feel better.

"Wow, you actually need so many ingredients to make a small cake. Let me see what they have. Low-gluten flour, eggs, milk, sugar, vegetable oil, a whisk, cream..."

Du Yuwei looked at everything and muttered.

Ji Mingxuan glanced at her with a smile: "It's actually very easy to make. You didn't eat cake on your birthday. Make up for it today. If you eat the cake I made for you, it will definitely taste different from the cake bought in the store."

As Ji Mingxuan spoke, he opened the eggs, separated the yolks and egg whites, and placed them in clean bowls. Then he used a small spoon to scoop three spoonfuls of sugar into the bowl of egg whites, added a little salt, and then Start beating with a whisk.

Ji Mingxuan explained: "This step is very important. You have to beat the egg whites into a hard foam. If the egg whites are not beaten well, the whole cake will not rise well. Without that fluffy and soft feeling, the cake will be useless. ”

After Ji Mingxuan has beaten the egg whites, he pours the egg whites into the egg yolk paste mixed with low-gluten flour in two batches. First, half of the egg yolk mixture is poured in, and then he stirs clockwise. After mixing evenly, he adds the remaining egg whites. After stirring, There were a lot of bubbles in the cake liquid. Ji Mingxuan patiently popped all the bubbles with a toothpick.

Then Ji Mingxuan preheated the oven for ten minutes, poured the mixed batter into the cake mold, and then put it in the oven. The temperature was set to 180 and the time was set to 40 minutes.

"Okay, let's just wait patiently for the time to come."

Du Yuwei helped put away all the things for making cakes, and looked at Ji Mingxuan with admiration: "Husband, you are really good in the hall and in the kitchen. If you were a woman, you would be really amazing. I guess there are many men. Everyone would want to marry a good wife and mother like you.”

Ji Mingxuan gently scratched Du Yuwei's little nose: "You know you are making fun of me, it seems you are in a better mood?"

Du Yuwei nodded: "Well, it's much better. It was a pleasure to watch you make the cake just now. I also relaxed a lot."

"Well, that's good. Try the cake I made later. If you want to eat it, I will make it for you at home. When the babies can eat, I will make it for them. It's sweet. It’s glutinous, and I think kids will love it.”

After the oven set the baking time, Ji Mingxuan put on the heat-insulating gloves and took out the whole cake. Suddenly, a sweet smell came to his face.

"Wow, it smells so good, it must be delicious!"

Du Yuwei came over and sniffed greedily.

"Wait until it cools down a bit before eating, and it needs to be removed from the mold."

Ji Mingxuan's tone was full of unconcealed pampering. Du Yuwei's greedy look at this moment was just like a cute little cat, making people want to tease her.

After waiting for a while, the cake was almost cool. Ji Mingxuan brought the cake to the coffee table in the living room and successfully removed it from the mold.

Du Yuwei came close and smelled it, "It smells so good. It's different from the cakes sold in the store. This one is still warm and seems to be softer."

Ji Mingxuan cut a small piece of cake and handed it to Du Yuwei.

"Try it and see how it tastes."

Du Yuwei took a small bite. It was soft and sweet, with a slight heat. It was not as sweet as the ones bought outside. This sweetness was just right. You won't feel sick even if you eat more.

"It's delicious, husband. No need to cook. Just eat the cake!"
