It’s also about being filial to your elders, so the eldest brother naturally has no objection.
The fifth elder brother smiled and said: "Brother, I want it to be a little spicy. This one is fragrant...the seasonings of my brothers and sisters are good...it's done. I'll go and deliver it to the Queen Mother and the Empress first..."
The third elder brother hurriedly laughed and said: "The fifth brother and I want to go together. I just wanted to leave it to Khan Ama, so I told the eldest brother to leave a leg of mutton... I will send it to Khan Ama..."
The eldest brother glanced at the third brother and said nothing.
There weren't many spicy seasoning packets, so he mixed the two spice packets he had on hand.
Sprinkle evenly on several lamb legs and some on the lamb chops.
After about half an hour, the golden edge on the horizon disappeared.
Night covers the wilderness.
The sky is filled with stars.
The roasted whole lamb on the ground is almost ready one after another.
Especially the two lambs roasted by the princes' elder brothers were bright in color and overbearing in fragrance, spreading everywhere.
Several Mongolian warriors who are familiar with the eldest brother have already gathered together.
The eldest brother did not move, but took out the dagger and split the mutton first.
There was already a little eunuch waiting nearby with a food box.
The fifth elder brother divided two legs of lamb and left.
The third brother also divided a leg of lamb, picked up the food box himself and left.
The eldest brother kept the remaining leg of lamb and put it aside before calling a few Mongolian warriors over.
This is a ewe that is about ten months old. It only weighs about 40 pounds after removing the skin and internal organs.
After roasting, it weighs more than 20 kilograms including the bones.
After removing the four legs of lamb, there are only a dozen kilograms left.
Several people each took two pieces and ate them, and almost all of them were gone. They just had a taste, but no one was happy with the meal.
The eldest brother's face also showed a bit of unsatisfied expression.
Seeing the situation on the elder brother's side, Brother Jiu thought for a while and cut the double spicy lamb leg reserved for Shu Shu into two parts.
The small part was a piece of barbecue the size of a palm, and he asked He Yuzhu to deliver it to Shu Shu while it was still hot.
Most of the leg of lamb with bones was left. He personally took it over and handed it to the eldest brother: "Brother, there is a lot left here. I can't finish it..."
The elder brother choked at first, then took it over and wanted to say something, but the ninth elder brother had already turned around and left.
Brother Ten did not cut the leg of lamb left for Wu Fujin and Qi Fujin. He put two knives in it and sent the eunuch next to him to deliver the meat.
Then several people each picked up a piece of mutton and started eating it.
“It’s really delicious with the addition of chili peppers, especially this one which is twice as spicy…”
Brother Thirteen's mouth was full of oil after eating, and he breathed in the spicy food and said: "Sister-in-law Ninth is really amazing...it's so delicious if it's twice as spicy. I don't know how about three times or four times..."
The tenth elder brother felt disgusted, moved his place, and reprimanded: "You are not allowed to talk while you are eating, and you are not allowed to say anything that is rude or not. What if you choke? Is this a joke?"
Brother Thirteen, be honest, close your mouth, chew slowly,
Brother Jiu ate a piece of mutton the size of a child's fist and felt it was more tender and juicy than the roasted meat he usually eats.
He wanted another piece, but remembering Shu Shu's instructions, he did not cut off the lamb leg, but cut a piece of roasted lamb tail.
The lamb tail was burnt on the outside and translucent fat on the inside.
Brother Jiu endured his disgust and took two bites. The taste was completely different from the fatty one he had imagined.
The tenth elder brother saw him from the side and said, "Did Sister-in-law Ninth ask you to eat it?"
Brother Jiu nodded with displeasure: "I can't even eat two more mouthfuls of meat, I'm afraid it won't be able to subdue it... If I'm greedy, I'll just take two bites of this... One bite is really enough..."
The tenth brother pondered: "Sister-in-law Ninth will not let Brother Ninth eat randomly...Sheep tail warms the spleen and stomach, protects the liver and kidneys, this should be the reason..."
The thirteenth elder brother was standing by, looking at the ninth elder brother with envy.
The ninth elder brother was embarrassed to see him. He also felt guilty when he heard the tenth elder brother mentioning "Yi Shen" and wanted to change the subject. He looked at the thirteenth elder brother and took another piece of mutton and said: "Weigh your stomach, don't
Eat enough to avoid feeling uncomfortable at night..."
Brother Thirteen smiled and said: "It's okay if you hold up. I'll ask Sister-in-law Ninth to have two hawthorn balls to eat..."
At this moment, the fifth elder brother had arrived at the place where the Queen Mother was staying.
In addition to the Queen Mother, the Emperor and Tai Ji were all there.
The three of them are drinking tea and chatting about everyday things.
Time flies, and decades have passed in the blink of an eye.
The older generation has withered away one after another.
When they recalled the kindness of the Empress Dowager, several people had red eyes.
The atmosphere is somewhat heavy and sentimental.
The arrival of the fifth elder brother seemed to break the sadness in the room and make the frozen scene come alive again.
"Royal Grandmother, my grandson has sent you delicious food..."
Following the sound of voices, the fifth elder brother strode in without asking for help.
Seeing that there were other people, the fifth elder brother hurriedly bowed and said hello: "Khan Ama, uncle..."
The Queen Mother, with a loving face on her face, called him forward and said: "Didn't I say that I and the elder brother and the others were going to eat roasted whole lamb? Why are you here? Have you eaten yet?"
The fifth elder brother shook his head: "My grandson hasn't eaten yet, let's give it to the imperial grandmother to eat first..."
With that said, he took the food box from the little eunuch and took out the leg of lamb inside.
"My eldest brother baked this by himself. He baked it very carefully... The seasonings used by the nine younger brothers and sisters smelled delicious... My grandson thought that he would give it to the imperial grandmother to taste first..."
The fifth elder brother told the truth.
The Queen Mother smiled happily: "Okay, okay, then grandma will give it a try..."
She saw another food box: "Is that for your mother? Send it to her quickly to avoid getting cold..."
"Well, well, then my grandson will go over first..."
The fifth elder brother agreed and took the young eunuch out.
Come and go in a hurry, just in these three or two sentences.
Kangxi sat by the kang, except for a greeting, he didn't even look at him, and his face was almost blue.
This son is really wasted!
I didn’t even think about giving old Amma a leg of lamb as a filial piety!
Kangxi felt aggrieved and complained to the Empress Dowager: "Look at Huang Eni, Lao Wu is so shameless. My dear Ama is just sitting here without even saying to leave a share for me..."
The Queen Mother comforted him: "He doesn't know you are here. Maybe other brothers in front of him have already sent a leg of lamb..."
Kangxi was not satisfied with this explanation.
The other elder brother gave it to me, it was the other elder brother's gift, and it was not out of filial piety from the fifth brother.
This old man is too clever!
Even if the remaining leg of lamb is cut into two, that will do.
A leg of lamb weighs two or three kilograms. Isn’t half a leg of Yifei enough?
That is to say, the prince's elder brother, whose identity is here, otherwise he would be so unscrupulous and unable to please his elders, he would definitely be an unpopular little pitiful person.
Kangxi was a kind-hearted father. After he disliked his son, he couldn't help but worry about him.
At this moment, Liang Jiugong came in: "Your Majesty, the Third Master is here..."
That's the difference.
In the Queen Mother's residence, the fifth elder brother can directly enter the room without having to report, but the third elder brother will not dare to do so.
Kangxi glanced at the leg of lamb on the table, nodded and called in.
The third elder brother and the fifth elder brother were about to set off, but the fifth elder brother came directly here. The third elder brother first went to the front yard where Kangxi stayed to ask for a meeting, so he was delayed.
Seeing the third elder brother come in with the food box himself, Kangxi's face showed relief.
The third elder brother first gave a round of gifts to the Queen Mother and others, and then said a little shyly: "My son roasted the leg of lamb with his own hands, and I wanted to give it to Khan Amma to taste as a tribute..."
As he spoke, he took out the leg of lamb from the food box.
Kangxi's eyes fell on the leg of lamb. It had similar scratches to the previous leg of lamb, and the roasting temperature was also similar. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all.
He glanced at the third elder brother with an unpredictable expression: "Bake it with your own hands? I want to taste it! It smells delicious..."
At this time, the third elder brother also saw the lamb legs on the table and said quickly: "It's just a sheep. My son roasted this one, and my elder brother roasted the other ones..."
At this point, he added: "Lao Jiu and the others are also roasting a lamb, but they don't have enough space. I heard they have to leave it to a few younger siblings..."
Kangxi listened and nodded: "It's delicious. I'll try it. You should go back and eat it quickly..."
The third elder brother then left happily.
Kangxi smiled helplessly at Tai Ji: "The one just now was not clever, this one is clever again..."
Taiji said with a "haha" smile: "They are all good children. The heartless ones are honest and heart-warming, but the thoughtful ones are also smart and attract rare attention... They are all good, they are all good..."
The Queen Mother never commented on the prince's elder brother in front of Kangxi. She couldn't wait to smell the overbearing fragrance.
"Let's try it too, it's all about the children's filial piety..."
Aunt Bai took a handkerchief and wrapped a few clean Mongolian knives in it.
Each of the three of them had a knife and cut the meat directly to eat.
The identities of these people were here, and they were of high seniority. No one was paying attention to their rules of "eating without talking or sleeping without talking", so they just started eating while chatting and laughing.
Even Kangxi looked a little more relaxed than usual.
The leg of lamb was roasted really well.
Charred on the outside and tender on the inside.
Because Big Brother mixed spicy barbecue buns with non-spicy barbecue buns, the lamb legs are both spicy, but only slightly spicy.
For Mongolians who have never eaten pepper, it is simply amazing.
After eating half of the roasted lamb leg, Taiji looked at the Queen Mother with a bit of flattery: "Egeqi, which Jiufujin is it? This seasoning is good, it is suitable for barbecue..."
The Queen Mother showed off a little: "The little daughter-in-law of the ninth elder brother, the tallest and best-looking one in Fujin. She is well-behaved and loves to read and think about food. She is a good child who is filial and polite... Tomorrow morning
Come over for dinner and let you try new dishes, all of which are recipes that others don’t know..."
"Oh, oh, this makes me hungry again..."
Taiji muttered.
The Queen Mother had already brought up the seasoning: "Brother Jiu and his eloquent couple got married not long ago, and the time is running out. Please prepare more greeting gifts... I will ask her to prepare more for you later..."
After saying this, the old lady did not forget to remind: "Don't miss the fifth elder brother, otherwise I will not obey..."
Taiji was a little dissatisfied: "Well, he is partial to his grandson and not to me. I am not rich these days..."
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Don't cry poor, who doesn't know that you have the best and largest pasture, the most sheep and horses..."
Taiji was the youngest son. Although he did not inherit the title of Dorobel, he was allocated the largest inheritance and the largest pasture.
The crying about poverty just now was just a joke...
*
In the side courtyard.
Shu Shu looked at the half-palm-sized barbecue and couldn't laugh or cry.
Fortunately, I didn't wait for this meal. I had Cuihua pickles and several pieces of meat for dinner.
Otherwise, I might be hungry.
It was this leg of lamb that became one piece...
She looked at the girls and Sun Jin who were greeted by her, and said: "I thought it was a leg of lamb, so I asked you to come over. I thought you would try it too... I didn't explain it clearly to you, so let's just
