Chun Tian He, Li Ming Da, and Meng Wei's three personal daughters, Lady Wei, were all invited to join the barbecue.

Everyone was dumbfounded by the barbecue tools that Meng Wei had taken out. They had never seen or heard of these things before.

"City Lord, let this subordinate roast the meat for you!”

Chun Tian He took the initiative to request. After all, in her heart, Meng Wei was the supreme City Lord, so how could he do such rough work?

"That's right, City Lord. You have a body of ten thousand gold. How can you do such a vulgar thing!”

Ye Luo Yi and Han Xue also cupped their hands and said.

Even the chefs who were cutting the meat at the side spoke up to stop them.

In ancient times, the hierarchy was strict, and people were divided into three, six, and nine grades. Some of the work was done by people with lower status, and chefs were one of them.

However, Meng Wei just smiled and didn't mind. He picked up the raw meat skewered by the chef and started to grill it himself.

This surprised Chun Tian He and Li Mingda. They felt that Meng Wei didn't seem to put on airs and was very approachable. Such an easy-going personality made them have a good impression of him.

Seeing that the City Lord was starting to roast the meat himself, Li Mingda didn't put on the airs of the royal family anymore. He picked up the meat skewers and placed them on the charcoal, imitating Meng Wei and roasting them.

Meng Wei smiled and did not stop him.

Chun Tian He, Han Xue, and Ye Luo Yi also began to grill, showing off their skills.

"Let me tell you a story."

Meng Wei casually put on a cigarette and said.

"Yeah!"

All the women stammered, each of them appearing very cold and aloof.

Meng Wei didn't care at all. Smiling, he said,"Sun Wukong lost his Jingu Staff. He was very angry. He stepped on the ground and shouted,'Old Earth Man, come out. Where is my Jingu Staff?”

The Earth God staggered out of the ground with a confused look. After thinking for a while, he pointed at the golden hoop on Sun Wukong's head and said,"Great Sage, your golden hoop is great because it matches your hairstyle very well!”

After hearing that, everyone was stunned.

A moment later, they burst out laughing.

"What's wrong with this!"

Chun Tian He scolded with a smile.

Li Mingda was also dumbfounded. He smiled and said,"This Earth God is really funny. Are they talking about the same thing?”

Even Chun Tian He, who had always been incomparably cold and aloof, was now thrown back and forth by this nonsensical joke, completely unable to control herself.

The entire place became lively, and everyone talked a lot more. Even Chun Tian He and the others could chat a little.

Li Mingda found Meng Wei even more mysterious. He didn't know what this person's brain was made of to be able to come up with such a strange joke. He couldn't tell what was funny, but he felt that something was wrong.

Not long after, the entire courtyard was filled with the fragrance of meat, making people's appetite rise.

Meng Wei took out the seasoning he had exchanged for and sprinkled it on the roasted meat. Instantly, the fragrance pierced through the nose.

Li Mingda's nose twitched. He didn't know what kind of seasoning this was and why it was so fragrant. The seasoning of the Great Tang was rather monotonous. Basically, it consisted of things like onions, ginger, and garlic. Cassia, tsaoko, fennel, nutmeg, and other southern seasonings had yet to be introduced into the Great Tang.

"What kind of seasoning is this? It's so fragrant!”

Li Mingda looked at the rabbit skewers that Meng Wei was roasting, his mouth watering.

This was the first time she had smelled such fragrant roast meat in her entire life, and she couldn't help but drool at the roast meat in Meng Wei's hand.

Chun Tian He was also extremely curious. However, after this period of time, she knew that Meng Wei had too many magical aspects. This person was completely unfathomable.

"It was concocted by this city lord himself. Do you want it? Ten thousand strings!"

Meng Wei said with a smile.

Li Mingda rolled his eyes and said speechlessly,"Profiteer!"

"Heh, no, I'll eat it then!”

Meng Wei picked up the skewer and started eating. Instantly, a fragrant aroma filled his mouth, and the oil spilled out.

Li Mingda was so greedy that he wanted to snatch it.

Chun Tian He also swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva. She knew a little about barbecue, but she could only add some salt to increase the taste of the meat.

This salt was bought from other towns in the Great Tang. It was coarse salt, and although it tasted salty, it tasted bitter and unsatisfactory.

Previously, Li Mingda had been living a life where he had to eat and wear whatever he wanted. He had even reached the point where he couldn't distinguish between the five grains. How could he roast the meat well?

She angrily took a bite of the meat that she had roasted, and there was even blood foam from her bite. The meat was also half-cooked, and it was not delicious at all. In fact, it was quite unpalatable.

Chun Tian He and the others roasted quite well. They didn't use the Great Tang's salt, but rather some pepper leaves, and the meat was fragrant.

Compared to Meng Wei, there was still a huge difference.

Since his roast meat was raw, Li Mingda was even more craving for the meat skewers in Meng Wei's hands.

"Gu gu gu ~"

Li Mingda's stomach grumbled even more.

Meng Wei pretended to hear him and started eating.
