New Return of the Pearl: A Different Qing Er

Since they were in Mongolia, there was no particular requirement for men and women to sit at separate tables, and Song Qing was already married, so she sat with Ertai.

On Song Qing’s left are Xiaoyanzi and Yongqi, and on her right are Xu Tian and Benjamin.

Only after the emperor started eating did Song Qing begin to eat.

Compared with the Central Plains dishes imitated by the Mongolian prince, Song Qing prefers their local specialties.

Especially the Mongolian milk tea. When Song Qing first tasted it, she felt that the taste was completely different from the milk tea she drank in modern times and she was not very used to it. But after drinking a few more sips, she found it very delicious, especially when eaten with local delicacies, it was even more mellow.

Ertai was basically always picking up food for Song Qing. He would pick up food wherever Song Qing looked.

Fulun, who was sitting at a separate table opposite, looked at his son and daughter-in-law with a look of satisfaction on his face, feeling that they had not wasted his years of experience in passing on to them.

After everyone finished their meal, they were taken by the waiter to their respective yurts.

Married people like Song Qing and Xiao Yanzi naturally live with their husbands.

Ziwei, Zhihua and Xu Tian shared a room. This time they did not bring any other maids with them, so the three girls lived in another yurt. Fortunately, the space was large and the three of them did not feel crowded.

The others lived in pairs in a yurt, Yongqi lived with Benjamin, and Erkang lived with his father.

Everyone rested for an afternoon, and in the evening, the Mongolian prince prepared a banquet. Compared with the simple lunch at noon, this meal in the evening had many more activities.

The nights in Mongolia were still a little chilly during this season, but not very cold, so everyone had their meal together outdoors.

The emperor still sat on the main seat, with the Mongolian prince sitting next to him, and the people below still sat down according to the seating arrangement at noon.

In the middle of the banquet hall is a large wooden platform, which should be the place for daily performances.

Song Qing tightened her coat and whispered to Xiaoyanzi beside her.

"Do you think there will be a whole roasted lamb tonight? I see a big rack over there." Little Swallow said as she pointed in the direction of the campfire.

Song Qing also saw it, "Maybe there will be. I heard from Sai Ya that roasted whole lamb in Mongolia is still the best. It is far inferior to what we eat in Beijing."

"Then I'll have to eat one more leg later!" said Little Swallow with a smile.

Ertai and Yongqi, who were standing next to them, listened to the two people's whispered discussion and couldn't help but look at each other, unable to hold back the smile in their eyes.

As soon as the two finished chatting, a whole lamb was placed on the rack.

The fat-rich lamb is roasted directly over an open flame, sizzling with oil.

While waiting for the roasted whole lamb, some other dishes were served one after another.

Basically, as soon as one dish is finished, the next one comes. The portion is just right, not too much and not enough.

While we were eating, a performance started on the stage.

There are Mongolian dances full of Mongolian style, as well as a group of warriors wrestling in a performative form.

Overall, Song Qing was very satisfied with the food, drinks and things to see.

My body, which was a little cold, warmed up immediately after drinking the hot milk tea and I no longer felt cold.

After watching so many Mongolian performances, the emperor suggested that several girls also perform some talents.

"Ziwei, your piano skills are very good, why don't you play a song?" Ziwei naturally obeyed the emperor's order.

Soon someone brought up the guzheng, and Ziwei, Xu Tian and Zhihua discussed it together and decided to perform a show together.

"Your Majesty, your son, Xinrong, Zhihua and I have discussed performing a show together and dedicate it to everyone." Ziwei said as she walked onto the stage.

"Okay! Let's start!" The emperor had no objection to this, but was very much looking forward to the performances of the girls.

Ziwei walked on the stage and asked someone to carry the guzheng to the edge of the round stage, and then sat down. Zhihua took Xiaojian's flute and stood beside Ziwei.

Xu Tian hurriedly changed into a dance costume, a red dress with long fluttering sleeves.

The sound of the guzheng started, first there was a prelude, and Xu Tian danced slowly to the music.

At a certain point, the sound of the flute joined the piano music, and the originally more soothing rhythm became cheerful, and Xu Tian also danced more smoothly to the music.

Xu Tian was a dancer before she traveled through time in the drama. However, for such a long time, except for the last time when she met Karl Lagerfeld, she hasn't danced again.

This sudden jump was a bit awkward. Fortunately, Xinrong had some physical skills, otherwise she probably wouldn't be able to even lift her legs now.

When the song ended, everyone applauded and praised the performance.

Sai Ya even wanted to go up and learn a few moves from Xu Tian, ​​but fortunately she was stopped by Fu Jinlin. He had no idea what was going on!

As newly-married women, Song Qing and Xiao Yanzi did not need to perform on stage. After watching the performance, the roasted whole lamb was ready and the waiter brought up the cut lamb.

Although Xiaoyanzi didn't get to eat the roasted lamb leg that she had been craving for, she still ate a lot of mutton.

Song Qing also ate a lot, but she had already eaten a lot before, so she gave all the food she couldn't eat to Ertai.
