“Sure enough, it’s no less generous than the Imperial City!”
Mo Hai looked at the majestic city in front of him and admired it.
When Mo Wen and others arrived at Wentian City, it had been three days since the last dinner party, and they arrived at night.
Wentian City is brightly lit at night.
At this time, the twilight is slightly drunk, and the lanterns are starting to light up, decorating the entire Wentian City. The eaves, black tiles, pavilions, and countless lanterns are hung high, illuminating the entire Wentian City. Although it is not daytime, it is better than daytime.
The wide road did not appear crowded, and pedestrians and carriages were well distinguished. Mo Wen's carriage moved forward slowly, and several female relatives were holding up the curtains to watch the beautiful scene on the street.
Wentian City at night, under the lights, is refreshingly stunning. The carriage is crossing the commercial street, and the shouts of vendors can be heard from time to time in the night market.
"This Wentian City is much more lively than the Imperial City!"
Shangguan Yunmeng looked at the scenery outside the car window and sighed.
Shangguan Yunmeng will also participate in the lantern cruise in the Imperial City during the New Year. Although it is much more lively than Wentian City now, there is no comparison.
This is normal. If it were a New Year's Day, Wentian City would probably be even more lively. The level would be far higher than that of the Imperial City.
"It's already dark now, let's go back to the city lord's mansion to rest first, and then come back for some fun tomorrow, right?"
Mo Wen asked the coachman to drive parallel to Shangguan Yunmeng's carriage, raised the curtain and asked aloud.
"No, it's so beautiful here, I want to go shopping!"
Mo Qingyue pouted and said.
"Mom, would you like to go shopping with me?"
Mo Qingyue hugged Shangguan Yunmeng's arm, shook it vigorously, and said coquettishly.
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yunmeng withdrew his eyes from the bright lights, and then gently stroked Mo Qingyue's little hand, but Mo Qingyue was so entangled that he couldn't help it.
Seeing this scene, Situ Lan covered her mouth and chuckled. Only this naughty little girl dared to act like a baby in front of her mother.
"How about we get off the car and take a walk first? Just walk to the City Lord's Mansion instead. You can watch while walking without delaying your trip."
Shangguan Yun dreamed and said.
In fact, Shangguan Yunmeng himself wanted to go there and have a look.
"Okay, let's get out of the car and take a walk."
Mo Hai nodded and said.
"Okay, let's get out of the car and walk back."
Mo Wen nodded, and then handed his identity jade pendant to the coachman.
He asked the coachman to go to the city lord's palace to tell him that an important guest was coming, so that the palace could prepare.
As soon as she got off the car, Mo Qingyue let go of Shangguan Yunmeng's arm and ran to Mo Wen's side.
"Third brother, third brother, I want that, I want that candy man, can you buy it for me?"
Mo Qingyue held Mo Wen's arm in front of her chest and shook it again.
Mo Wen looked forward and saw many people holding a bunch of crystal-clear, thin candy figures in front of them.
"Drawing a candy man! Drawing a candy man!"
Not far ahead, a female vendor shouted.
The tools for drawing candy figures are very simple, a spoon, a shovel, and a slate of syrup. Although the tools are simple, the skill of drawing candy figures is not simple.
"Okay, okay, stop shaking, I'll buy it for you..."
Mo Wen was so shaken that he quickly spoke.
"Okay! Third brother is the best!"
Mo Qingyue received the answer and couldn't wait to pull him towards the female vendor.
Mo Hai looked at this scene and felt slightly sad.
"What, are you jealous?"
Shangguan Yunmeng looked at Mo Hai, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"It doesn't happen, how is this possible! I was just thinking that when Yue'er grows up, she will leave us too!"
Mo Hai said seriously.
Shangguan Yunmeng looked at Mo Hai with a faint smile, obviously not believing what he said.
"Let's go up and have a look..."
Mo Hai felt uncomfortable and changed the subject.
"Sir City Lord, are you going to visit the night market too? Do you want to draw a candy figure? What shape of candy do you want?"
The female vendor looked at Mo Wen and said excitedly.
"Yes! How are you doing these years when you take your little sister out for a walk?"
Mo Wen nodded and smiled at the female vendor.
"Okay, okay... We are living a good life. Everything is thanks to the Lord of the City..."
The female street vendor said with red eyes.
"Well...as long as everything goes well, the days to come will get better and better! Qingyue, what shape do you want to draw the candy man?"
"Third brother, I want this candy man in the shape of a fat puppy. It's so cute!"
Mo Qingyue pointed to a finished template on the stall and said.
"Little sister, this is not a puppy, this is the city lord's pet, called Xiaobai. I thought Xiaobai looked cute, so I made it into a candy figure. I hope the city lord won't be offended!"
The female vendor smiled.
"Xiaobai is very popular in the city, and this is the best seller in my stall."
"It's not in the way, it's not in the way. Just draw it! Let's draw a little white candy man!"
Mo Wen looked at the female vendor and smiled.
"Okay! Lord City Lord, you'll be ready soon..."
The female vendor said with a cheerful smile.
However, this painting is too fat, right?
"Third brother, is this Xiaobai?"
Mo Qingyue looked at Mo Wen and suddenly said.
Mo Wen was stunned when he heard this.
Could it be that the candy figures drawn by this vendor were scaled according to proportions? Is this the current Xiaobai?
Mo Wen took the soft and cute figure of Xiao Bai in his memory and put it directly into the candy man.
Not to mention, they really look alike!
Xiaobai, are you so fat?
Well, Xiaoqi can become like that in one year. It’s not surprising that Xiaobai, who is also a foodie, turns into a ball in four years!
"Well...this is Xiaobai..."
Mo Wen muttered.
Afterwards, Mo Wen and Mo Qingyue looked at each other and fell into silence.
While Mo Wen was waiting here to make candy, he was recognized by the vendors here. Everyone came up to say hello and stuffed him with a lot of food.
"Lord City Lord, I have fresh fruits here. You can take some back to eat."
"Lord City Lord, come and try the salted chicken you made. Xiaobai ate it cutely."
Most of these people were family members of the military who had migrated here. Mo Wen thanked them all and took some food as a token gesture.
When Mo Wen paid, the other party did not refuse, but collected some money symbolically.
Walking down a street, Mo Wen was holding a bunch of food in his hands. Mo Qingyue looked at it with a smile on her face, because she was eating happily.
Mo Hai and Shangguan Yunmeng looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
Situ Lan was also shocked. This third child seemed to be very popular with the people.
"Would you all like to have some? You can help me lighten my burden."
Mo Wen looked at a few people and said.
"These things are very good. They grow them at home or make them by themselves."
"Okay, let me try it!"
Mo Hai heard this and nodded.
"Crack!"
I saw him picking up a piece of fruit and taking a bite of it, it was crunchy.
"Hmm...not bad, crispy and juicy!"
Mo Hai chewed it a few times and swallowed the pulp into his belly.
