"What? My sister-in-law is... what... meat, barbecue? What did she barbecue? Ribs, chicken wings, and crucian carp..."
Sun Yi could be absolutely certain that he was no longer in the mood to discuss important matters.
He looked at his older brother.
Sun Ce raised his hand and subtly stroked his brow.
What time is it?
Hai Shi, 3:45!
"Brother, what are you still discussing? Sister-in-law grilled some meat! Come on, let's go eat some meat."
Sun Yi jumped up and pulled Sun Quan along.
When doing this kind of thing, the third brother can't go alone; he has to bring the second brother along too, so that the eldest brother won't just scold him alone.
At that time, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Yi, Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Lü Meng... but Zhang Zhao was not among them.
They insisted on bringing Zhang Zhao along.
Zhang Zhao refused no matter what, but struggled and left.
He was probably afraid that his willpower was not strong enough and that Qiao Jingjing would win him over with just two pieces of pork ribs. Where would he put his face then?
The group of men had just entered the courtyard.
Then I smelled a strong smell of smoke and the aroma of barbecue.
And inside, the satisfied sighs of everyone—madams, young ladies, and maids—were heard.
"Ah, this is so delicious!"
"Madam, will you make it for us again tomorrow?"
"Sister-in-law, can you bake it for me tomorrow morning? I'm too full, I'll stay here tonight. Pearl, please carry me inside! From now on, you must listen to me, Sister-in-law Qiao, understand?"
Sun Shangxiang let out a burp, her eyelids drooping uncontrollably.
Qiao Jingjing had Pearl and Yumei carefully lift Sun Shangxiang onto the bed and cover her with a blanket.
Madam Gu was still frowning:
"Is it appropriate for the princess to stay in my sister's room? Pearl, come, carry the princess to my room. That way, I can explain things to my mother when she asks tomorrow."
Sun Shangxiang waved her hand in a daze.
"You're the one who should lift it! You don't eat the good meat, but now you're telling me what to do."
“Princess, no… you’re sleepy and want to sleep. I’m your sister-in-law, how can I not take care of you? If I don’t, Marquis Wu will blame me when he comes back. Be good…”
Lady Gu later tried to take Sun Shangxiang away.
A group of men had gathered under the eaves, surrounding the barbecue grill outside.
"Sister-in-law, where's the meat?"
Sun Yi saw that the food on the charcoal grill looked edible, and the aroma was coming from there.
Sun Yi picked up a skewer and put it in his mouth.
One sip, and my mouth was full of meat, too much to be contained in a bag.
"ah!
Delicious, delicious, delicious, quick!
"Big brother, second brother, and you all... hurry, hurry, hurry, eat!"
Sun Yi urged others to eat quickly, but there were only a few skewers left on the pitiful charcoal grill.
He licked off most of it in one go.
Upon hearing the noise, Qiao Jingjing and Madam Gu came out.
Upon seeing Sun Ce, Lady Gu greeted him with delight and sweetness, saying, "Husband, you must be tired. Please sit down and rest. I've been waiting for you all night..."
Qiao Jingjing had already called out to Pearl Jade Plum:
"Go and ask the old women to bring over some stools and chairs!"
Regenerate a pot of charcoal fire!
Bring some wine, so the generals don't get cold.
Magnolia, hurry up and put on some more meat.
Also, Pearl, go to the kitchen again and tell them to kill chickens and ducks if they have any, or even kill a few fish. And charcoal! A whole basket of charcoal, too.
