The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 304: Taking the Envoys to the Market

After lunch, everyone felt full and sleepy, so they took a nap as arranged by the managers.

In this familiar place, Shen Jiarou fell asleep quickly.

Except for Zheng Shutong who was on duty, Ruan Qingling and Nami slept in the same bed with Shen Jiarou, while everyone else slept on the floor in Shen Jiarou's room.

There was no other way. With so many nobles and adults coming to Zhuangzi at once, they had no choice but to lie on the floor and take a nap.

In the springtime paradise market, flowers are blooming everywhere; people are coming and going on the streets; vendors are shouting; shop owners and clerks are warmly entertaining customers; everything is busy and orderly.

Looking at this paradise full of human fireworks, the envoys and Dalin officials were full of shock, curiosity, and sighs...

"What is that?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the eldest prince Lakaqi's finger, and saw someone at a stall performing the stone-breaking exercise with his chest.

Shen Jiarou smiled when she saw it: "That's a huge stone breaking in the chest, do you want to go and see it?"

"Let's take a look." It seemed that they didn't have this when they returned to Meng Country.

Everyone joined in the fun, and everyone who came changed into their usual casual clothes, but they didn't stand out too much.

However, most of them were dressed in luxurious clothes, and it was obvious that they were of extraordinary status.

For this reason, Shen Jiarou specifically instructed the steward to increase the number of patrol and registration personnel inside and outside the market.

"it is good."

Someone turned the gong plate over and asked for money.

"Dear brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters, if you like it, feel free to give me a reward, thank you."

The eldest prince Lalaqi didn't understand and was a little confused.

"Aunt Wang, what are they doing?"

"Asking for reward money means to recognize someone's performance and give them a reward at will."

In fact, there were many fun things to do in ancient times, such as guessing riddles and taking boat rides on weekdays, setting off lanterns and hanging lanterns on festivals, and other activities like breaking stones on the chest and shadow puppetry.

The gong plate arrived in front of Shen Jiarou and others. Shen Jiarou looked at Ruan Qingling and signaled her to give a reward.

Ruan Qingling took out a string of 100-wen copper coins and put them on it, which made the other party very happy.

"Thank you for the reward, Miss. I wish you peace and everything goes well."

The eldest prince and others found it interesting, but he had no money and was a little troubled for a moment.

"Aunt Wang, could you also give some tips to your nephew?"

Shen Jiarou looked at Ruan Qingling again, and Ruan Qingling looked at Bao Zhiqing, and took the string of fifty copper coins he brought and put them on top.

The other party grinned happily and thanked me repeatedly.

"Thank you, young master, thank you, young lady. I wish you both great wealth and success in everything you do."

The aunt and nephew smiled at each other.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at Luo Cheng, and Luo Cheng immediately understood and took out the last bit of silver he had and put it on the pile.

Everyone was shocked when they saw it. It was about two or three taels of silver.

Luo Cheng scratched his head embarrassedly. He also wanted to put in copper coins, but he didn't have any on him.

Shen Jiarou glanced at her brother the Crown Prince and smiled at him.

The prince is really generous.

The other officials all gave tips more or less. The lady holding the gongs and drums laughed happily and said all kinds of nice words as if they were free of charge, which made the adults feel very comfortable.

The envoys were amazed by what they saw and heard along the way.

General Yedamu stopped at a place, and the envoy Erjiaqi turned around in confusion.

"That...big...what are you looking at?" What is this white thing in front of me?

His questioning voice attracted everyone to turn around.

Shen Jiarou walked over and smiled when she saw the glutinous rice in the big stone mortar.

"You like watching this, do you want to go up and try it?"

General Yedamu was stunned: "Is it possible?"

Shen Jiarou looked at Ruan Qingling and gave her instructions.

"Sister Qingling, take some copper coins and tell the other party."

Ruan Qingling nodded and took out five cents and handed it to the boss.

"Boss, I'll give you five cents and let that brother give it a try, okay?"

The guy glanced at the burly man opposite him, took the money and nodded.

"Go and try it now."

In her previous life, she remembered seeing an activity of making glutinous rice cakes in the ancient street of Ciqikou in the mountain city, and she also paid to experience it.

General Yedamu picked up a huge stone hammer and started smashing it down, again and again, until he was tired.

“It’s quite strenuous.”

Seeing that the prince was very interested, Shen Jiarou encouraged him with a gentle smile.

"Brother, why don't you try it too?"

Everyone looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again. The ministers of the Ministry of Rites were a little worried. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the heir to the throne, so it might not be appropriate to make glutinous rice cakes.

"Then try it."

Ruan Qingling handed another five cents to the waiter, who was very happy to receive it.

It turns out that making glutinous rice cakes can also make money. Why don't he go and talk to the shopkeeper about it, maybe he can earn some extra income.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a martial artist, so he picked up the stone hammer without any effort and started smashing it directly.

Many envoys and officials went to experience it, some with one stone hammer, some with two, and they had a lot of fun.

The group stayed here for a full quarter of an hour, and Shen Jiarou brought them to a stall where wine bowls were smashed and stopped.

Looking at the big words above, envoy Reiko also read them out loud.

"Break the wine bowl, two for one penny." This game sounds interesting.

Seeing him rubbing his fists and feet, Shen Jiarou smiled.

"Sister Qingling, go and pay the ten cents. I want to break two bowls to experience it later." She had never played this in her previous life, but since she was out today, she might as well give it a try.

The sound of the bowl breaking was deafening, but Li Zi seemed unable to stop.

"Oh, this is so fun." He was reluctant to stop.

Shen Jiarou stepped forward and Ruan Qingling handed over the copper coin again.

Picking up a bowl, Shen Jiarou threw it to the ground.

"Don't mention it, it's really interesting."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the scene with such adoration that he felt as if he were there himself.

My sister is indeed interested in fun things.

The third person, the Minister of Rites, went to try it out. He picked up a bowl and threw it down, but unfortunately his force was not enough and only half of the bowl broke.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally tried it, and Shen Jiarou spoke with a smile.

"Brother, isn't this quite stress-relieving?" It's just like removing dead skin, very stress-relieving.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled and replied, "It is quite stress-relieving."

After the boss earned a few dozen coins, everyone started to take a fancy to other games, such as spinning tops, hitting triangles, and slingshots...

There were even lion dances on another street, with various swinging poses and big jumps. The lion dance costumes had small bells hanging on them, which made clear and pleasant sounds when they touched each other as they danced.

Nami exclaimed, "Girl, what is this."

It looks very interesting.

When in Rome, follow the local customs and call girls in private when you go out.

"Lion dancing is really beautiful and interesting."

Nami and others nodded, many things Dalin did were really interesting.

Mu Siqi was at a hairpin stall, attracted by all kinds of hairpins.

Kaier bought a rattle to play with, and Zhen Luosang laughed happily when he saw it.

"Kayi'er, this is for children to play with."

Kai'er was stunned: "Ah, can't we play?"

Shen Jiarou smiled and said, "It's not that we can't play, it's just that others will find it weird."
