Chapter 68: North City Market
Of course, one must do what he promised to his child, so on the day of the holiday, Su Qinchao rode out on his horse early.
He and Yunniang had already made plans last night to play with the young master in the morning.
In the afternoon, the family went to Wannian County for a stroll. She heard that there was a bakery in Wannian County that made great cakes, and she had long wanted to try it.
After picking up the young master from the princess's mansion and handing the horse over to the palace guards for safekeeping, Su Qinchao took the young master's hand and planned to take them to visit the market in the north of the city.
He didn't plan to ride a horse this time. He wanted the young master to experience the lives of ordinary people step by step among the crowd.
Fortunately, the city's northern market was not far from the princess's mansion, and the two of them arrived there in just three quarters of an hour.
Along the way, the young master was amazed at the shops and vendors along the street.
When he was in Henan Province, he was well protected by the people in Changning Palace and had never wandered among the crowd like he did now.
"Master, what is that?" The young master pointed to the stall in front.
It was a stall selling sugar paintings. In front of the stall were several sugar paintings of dragons, phoenixes, beauties, tigers, leopards and the like.
"That's sugar painting, it's edible." Su Qinchao picked up the little master and held him in his arms, then quickly walked to the stall so that he could watch the stall owner draw the sugar painting more conveniently.
At this moment, there happened to be a couple with a little girl standing in front of the stall, and the stall owner was painting the Chang'e Flying to the Moon that they wanted.
"I want it too!" As the sugar painting slowly took shape, the little prince's eyes opened wider and wider. It was so beautiful.
"Have you decided what to draw?" Su Qin asked Wenrou.
“Can I choose?”
"Of course, draw whatever you like!"
"I want to draw a mighty general." He wanted to become a powerful man like his master and fight on the battlefield in the future.
"Okay!" After Su Qinchao gave instructions to the stall owner, he asked the young master whether he had breakfast.
Seeing the young master shook his head, he asked the pancake stall next door to send over two whole grain pancakes.
"Have you ever eaten this?" Su Qinchao rolled the beef strips in a pancake and handed it to the young master.
"No, but I saw the servants eating it in Aunt Yucheng's house." As the prince of the royal palace, he usually ate fine food and had never eaten this coarse grain pancake.
"You can try it today. This is food for ordinary people." Su Qinchao took a bite of the pancake and ground it finely with his teeth. The multi-grain pancakes in ancient times were not as fine as the modern ones and were quite grinding with his teeth.
"It smells so good, but it's a little hard to bite." The young master sniffed the pancake in his hand and imitated Su Qinchao and wanted to take a big bite.
Unexpectedly, I couldn't bite it off, so I had to tear off a small piece from the edge with my hands and put it in my mouth.
To be honest, this was very different from what he usually ate, and it made his throat a little sore, but he still tried his best to grind the pancake with his teeth and swallow it. If his master could eat it, he could eat it too!
Therefore, when Shen Yong brought the children here, he saw two people standing in front of the sugar painting stall.
He puffed up his cheeks and bit the pancake hard, watching the stall owner draw sugar paintings while biting.
His eldest son is the same age as the young master, and Su Qinchao specially asked him to bring him over to play together yesterday.
Also find a playmate for the little prince. After all, the two families are quite related.
"Are you going to eat this with the little prince?" Shen Yong walked over and, imitating Su Qinchao's example, held his eldest son in his arms.
"What's wrong with that? As royal relatives, isn't it your duty to experience the people's livelihood?" In the future, we will have to rely on this group of people to govern the country. How can we do it if they don't know anything?
"Dad, I want a general too!" Before Shen Yong could speak, his eldest son Shen Qilin spoke first.
His parents never allowed him to go out casually before, but it turns out there are so many good things out there!
"Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Yong took out a dime and asked the stall owner to draw another one. Then he looked at Su Qinchao again and was about to speak.
"Sir, 15 copper coins will be enough, you don't need so much." The stall owner nodded and handed the change back.
"The rest is yours!" Shen Yong said unhappily after being disturbed by the stall owner again.
"What else do you young gentlemen want? I will draw them all as a thank you for the reward!" This dime is worth at least three taels of silver, and it would take many drawings to earn that much.
"We want another big tiger!" Shen Qilin shouted first.
"I want a big horse too!" the young master said after swallowing the pancake in his mouth.
Therefore, it took the stall owner more than half an hour to finish painting the four candy paintings.
At this time, Su Qin and Shen Yong had already eaten the multi-grain pancakes and talked about the opening of sea transportation next year.
"Can you finish it?" Shen Yong looked at the two huge sugar paintings in his son's hands and quickly put him down. He didn't want to get any of them on his body. This set of clothes was made by his wife herself.
"If you can't finish it, take it back and give it to the waiter!" Shen Qilin held the sugar painting and admired it for a while before taking a bite from the general's sleeve.
"Master, you eat too!" The young master raised the big horse and placed it near Su Qinchao's mouth.
"Is it for me?" Su Qinchao took the Malaysian sugar painting in surprise and took a bite. He didn't expect that he had one too.
"Yes! Mother said that one cannot eat alone, so let's each have one!" The young prince nodded seriously. He was a good boy and remembered what his mother said.
"Okay, let's continue shopping! How about going to see a magic show?"
"Good!" Both children have seen magic tricks. Whenever there is a major event in the mansion, the troupe will be invited to perform. However, these are the children's favorite and they never get tired of watching them.
The magic tricks in Chang'an are not just magic tricks, they are a combination of magic tricks and illusions. Due to the preferences of emperors of successive dynasties, the illusions have become more advanced with each generation.
However, the emperor would only invite people to perform in the palace during the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and his birthday.
Therefore, magicians and illusionists would usually rent a venue in the deepest part of the northern market town, set up tents and earn some extra money.
When the four of them arrived, the place had just started business, the scene on the stage had just been set up, and there were only a few people sitting in the audience seats in the tent.
At this time, a little white elephant with colorful paintings all over its body was seen slowly walking out from the backstage led by the trainer. Its big eyes were clear and very cute.
"Master, this little elephant is so cute!" The young master pointed at the little white elephant that was performing a trick of using its trunk to push a hydrangea. He really wanted to take it back.
"There will be something more interesting later!" He could already hear the magician's whispered words in the background, one, two, three, start!
"Ah!" Everyone around them, including the two children in their arms, exclaimed.
It turned out that the little white elephant threw the hydrangea up again, then suddenly leaped towards the audience, and turned into colored paper and exploded the moment it landed.
Then the colored papers spontaneously gathered into a ball in the air, and then slowly peeled off, revealing a handsome little boy of about eleven or twelve years old.
The little boy was wearing strange clothes, and the pattern on his clothes was exactly the same as that of the elephant.
