Spring walk, barbecue fun
In the early morning, sunlight shines through the carved window lattices and gently falls into the lobby of the inn.
Bai Linglong got up early, put on her makeup carefully, and went to the lobby to meet everyone.
At this time, the Queen Mother was sitting in the main seat, looking leisurely. When she saw Bai Linglong coming, a kind smile appeared on her face.
"Linglong, come and sit over here."
The Queen Mother greeted, her voice full of love.
Bai Linglong walked lightly to the Queen Mother and sat down. She smiled and said, "Grandma, did you have a good rest today?"
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "With you here, I can sleep peacefully.
Following you around these days, I feel like I’m a few years younger. ”
As they were talking, the emperor and the queen walked into the hall with elegant steps.
The emperor was dressed in a gorgeous dragon robe, with an upright posture, showing his imperial majesty;
The queen was wearing a dignified phoenix robe and had a gentle temperament.
When they saw Bai Linglong and the Queen Mother, gentle smiles appeared on their faces.
"Mother, your daughter-in-law greets you."
The queen bowed slightly and spoke respectfully.
"No need to be polite, just sit down."
The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand.
After a while, four children also came to the lobby skipping.
Dabao Nan Jinxuan, Erbao Nan Jinyi, Sanbao Nan Jinyu and Sibao Nan Jinyao, their faces are filled with vigor and vitality.
Great Grandmother: "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, we are hungry!"
Nan Jinyao said coquettishly, her voice clear and pleasant.
Everyone was amused by her cute appearance. Bai Linglong took Nan Jinyao's hand and said gently, "Okay, let's have breakfast now."
The inn staff served various delicious breakfasts one after another, including steaming hot dumplings, golden and crispy fried dough sticks, fragrant rice porridge, and exquisite dim sum.
Everyone chatted while enjoying the food.
Nangong Yu picked up a steamed bun, took a bite, and praised: "The steamed buns in this inn are quite good, with thin skin and large fillings, and they taste delicious."
Bai Linglong smiled and said, "Yes, it's rare to have such a delicious breakfast when you're away from home."
The Queen Mother drank the porridge and looked at the four lively children with eyes full of doting: "Children are growing up, eat more."
While eating fried dough sticks, Nan Jinxuan asked curiously, "Dad, Mom, where are we going today?"
Nangong Yu put down the chopsticks in his hand and said patiently: "Today we are going to a beautiful town, where there are green mountains and clear waters, and a bustling market, which is very interesting."
“Wow, that’s great!
You can go to new places to play! ”
Nan Jinyi clapped his hands excitedly, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
Everyone finished their breakfast amidst laughter and chatter, and after a short rest, they prepared to set off.
Outside the inn, servants had already brought in the fine horses, each of which was fat and strong, and full of spirit.
With the help of her maid, Bai Linglong lightly mounted a white horse.
She was wearing a light pink riding suit, and her figure was graceful, like a blooming peach blossom.
Nangong Yan rode a black horse and came to Bai Linglong's side. He asked with concern: "Linglong, are you sitting firmly?"
Bai Linglong smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
Following Nangong Yan's order, everyone set off slowly.
The team moved forward along the winding official road, the sunlight shining on them, casting a golden glow.
There are endless fields on both sides of the official road. The tender green wheat seedlings sway gently in the breeze, exuding bursts of fresh breath.
In the distance, the mountains are rolling, contrasting with the blue sky and white clouds, like a beautiful painting.
"Daddy, look at that butterfly over there, it's so beautiful!"
Nan Jinyao pointed at the flying butterflies on the roadside and shouted excitedly.
Nangong Yan looked in the direction of her finger and said with a smile: "Yes, spring is here, everything is reviving, and these little creatures are also coming out to play."
Nan Jinchen blinked his big eyes and asked curiously: "Daddy, why do butterflies fly?"
Nangong Yan patiently explained: “Because butterflies have a pair of beautiful wings, their wings can help them fly in the air.
Just like a bird has wings and can fly. ”
Nan Jinchen nodded, not quite understanding: "Oh, when I grow up, I will also fly like a butterfly."
Everyone laughed out loud at his sincere words. The laughter echoed in the air, adding a bit of joy to this beautiful spring day.
Halfway through the journey, the Queen Mother looked at the people working on the roadside and could not help but sigh: "I have seen the people working hard along the way. I hope they can have a good harvest and live a stable life."
Bai Linglong said: "Yes, only when the people of the country live and work in peace and contentment can the country prosper.
The people's livelihood issues that I learned about during this trip must be discussed and resolved after returning to the palace. ”
Nangong Yu looked serious and nodded slightly: "This matter is indeed urgent. It concerns the livelihood of the people. I will go back and discuss it carefully with the ministers."
Everyone continued to move forward while talking.
Before we knew it, the sun was rising higher and the sunlight was becoming hotter.
After being jolted on horseback for a long time, everyone's stomach began to growl.
Bai Linglong raised her hand to block the dazzling sunlight, looked around, and found a clear stream not far away. There was green grass beside the stream and several large trees with lush branches and leaves. It was an ideal place for a picnic.
"Everyone, let's take a rest by the stream ahead, eat something, and then continue on our journey."
Bai Linglong raised her voice to suggest.
Everyone nodded in approval, with expectant looks on their faces.
Soon, everyone arrived at the stream.
The servants quickly got busy, some were responsible for leading the horses to water, while others began to clean the ground and prepare to build a temporary resting place.
Bai Linglong walked aside, and with a thought, she opened her own mysterious space.
Bai Linglong took out a barbecue grill, barbecue skewers, various fresh meats and vegetables, and various secret seasonings from the space, which dazzled everyone.
"Wow, Master, you have everything in this space!"
The maid Yue'er couldn't help but exclaimed, her eyes full of curiosity and envy.
Bai Linglong smiled slightly, without further explanation, and just said: "Everyone must be hungry, today I will show you my skills and make a delicious barbecue."
Everyone gathered around and watched Bai Linglong prepare the ingredients with curiosity.
Bai Linglong first cut the tender mutton into small pieces of even size and put them into a large bowl. Then she added her special seasoning and gently stirred it evenly so that every piece of mutton could fully absorb the aroma of the seasoning.
Her technique is skillful and elegant, as if she is creating a work of art.
Afterwards, Bai Linglong began to process the vegetables. She washed and cut potatoes, eggplants, green peppers and other vegetables into pieces, and then skewered them with barbecue skewers.
The guards on the side took the initiative to help, and under Bai Linglong's guidance, they had skewered a large pile of ingredients in a short while.
Meanwhile, several guards had already started a fire by the stream and set up the barbecue grill.
Bai Linglong put the marinated lamb skewers on the barbecue grill. In an instant, the flames licked the lamb, making a sizzling sound, and an enticing aroma spread.
Everyone's eyes were drawn over here, and they swallowed unconsciously.
Nangong Yan, who was always calm, couldn't help but move closer, looking at the lamb skewers on the barbecue grill, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Linglong, is this the barbecue you mentioned?
It smells so good. ”
Nangong Yan said softly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile.
Bai Linglong flipped the mutton skewers and replied with a smile: "Yes, this barbecue has a unique flavor. You will know it when you try it later."
As the lamb skewers continue to roast on the fire, the aroma becomes more and more intense.
Bai Linglong skillfully sprinkles cumin, pepper salt and other seasonings on the dish, and the unique aroma makes people salivate.
"Okay, everyone try it."
Bai Linglong handed the roasted lamb skewers to everyone.
Nan Jinxuan was the first to take the mutton skewer. He couldn't wait to take a bite. In an instant, his eyes lit up and an intoxicated look appeared on his face.
“Wow, it’s delicious!
Mom, your cooking skills are so good!
This taste is absolutely amazing! ”
Nan Jinxuan ate while praising vaguely, and while he was talking, he had already eaten a skewer of mutton, and he quickly reached out to get the second one.
"Brother, leave one for me!"
Nan Jinyao shouted anxiously, her eyes fixed on the lamb skewers, her little face full of desire.
Bai Linglong smiled and handed a string to Nan Jinyao, saying, "Don't worry, Yaoyao, everyone will have a share."
Nan Jinyao took the mutton skewer, took a careful bite, and narrowed her eyes into crescents: "Wow, it's so delicious, Mom, please make it for us often in the future."
After eating the mutton skewers, the Queen Mother also praised them highly: "Linglong, your barbecue is really delicious. I have lived to such an old age, but this is the first time I have eaten such delicious food."
"As long as you like it, grandma. I'll make it for you when we get back to the palace."
Bai Linglong said with a smile.
Bai Linglong watched everyone eating with gusto, feeling a sense of accomplishment in her heart.
She passed the grilled vegetable skewers to everyone, and everyone ate them with great praise.
"The grilled vegetables are delicious, fresh and tasty. They go perfectly with the lamb skewers!"
Nan Jinyi said excitedly while eating roasted eggplant.
While everyone was enjoying the food, Bai Linglong did not stop what she was doing. She continued to be busy on the barbecue grill, grilling more food for everyone.
Soon, the table was filled with all kinds of delicious barbecues, including grilled chicken wings, grilled squid, grilled corn, etc.
Everyone sat together, enjoying the food and appreciating the beautiful scenery by the stream, with laughter echoing by the stream.
At this moment, the sunlight shines on everyone, as if adding a layer of warm filter to the picture, making people feel extremely comfortable and happy.
While enjoying the food, everyone did not forget to communicate.
Everyone was eating barbecue and sharing their interesting stories and experiences with each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Madam, who did you learn this barbecue skill from?
How can it be so powerful? ”
A young eunuch asked curiously.
Bai Linglong smiled and replied, "I figured this out myself. When I had nothing to do, I liked to study all kinds of food."
"The young lady is really clever and skillful. Not only is she beautiful, but she can also cook so many delicious foods."
The maid Jinxiu said flatteringly.
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter and the atmosphere became even more lively.
Before we knew it, the barbecue was almost over.
Everyone ate their fill, with satisfied smiles on their faces.
Everyone said that this was the most unforgettable meal they had ever had.
"I had a really great time today. Not only did I eat delicious barbecue, but I also enjoyed such beautiful scenery."
Nan Jinyao said happily while touching her round belly.
"Yes, this is all thanks to Linglong. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't be able to eat such delicious food."
Nangong Yan looked at Bai Linglong, his eyes full of love and gratitude.
Bai Linglong looked at everyone with a smile and said, "As long as everyone is happy, that's fine.
We go out to play to relax and enjoy life. ”
After resting for a while, everyone prepared to continue on their journey.
Everyone packed up the barbecue stove, tableware and other items and put them back into Bai Linglong's space.
Then, under the sunshine, the group rode on their horses and continued along the official road towards their next destination.
This picnic and barbecue not only allowed everyone to taste delicious food, but also enhanced the relationship between each other.
During the rest of the trip, everyone became closer and spent many happy times together.
And this delicious barbecue has become a beautiful memory in everyone's hearts and will remain in their hearts forever.
