After a group of people entered the Four Seasons Garden, someone led them to the attic viewing platform, which happened to be facing a high platform. At this moment, someone was singing an opera on the stage, and the song was Chang'e flying to the moon.
This is also the second floor, which is the best place to watch and listen to plays.
Su Wan saw that there were quite a lot of people upstairs and downstairs everywhere, so he asked: "Is there a private room at this time? Is it such a good location?"
Huaisha said: "Madam, this is what the young master decided a few days ago."
Su Wan turned to look at Li Lin: "Did you ask someone to book a private room?"
Li Lin asked Shi Zai to sit down and nodded when he heard the words: "Didn't you say you wanted to go out for a walk before? This kid also wants to come out. There are too many people in the market outside. Let's just walk around and experience it, and then listen here. play."
There are too many people, so just walk around. There is no point in walking all the time. It is better to drink tea and listen to the show here.
Su Wan thought about it too.
It was rare for Shi Zai to come out, but he was still very energetic. Su Wan had some warm water brought to him, gave him a few sips, and asked him if he was sleepy: "Is Shi Zai going to sleep?"
He is still young, and Su Wan usually won't let him drink tea, especially at night. If he doesn't sleep at night after drinking, he will have a lot of troubles. Now he wants to be mother, now father, now he wants to listen to stories, and now he wants to play this and that.
Zaizai shook his head vigorously: "I don't want to sleep, I want to play with lanterns and watch a show."
After that, he got up and ran over. This private room was probably specially prepared for viewing the stage. It had windows that could be pushed open flush with the ground. There were railings on the windows, and the tea seat was located next to the railings. , guests can just see the stage when they sit down.
Shi Zai was sitting opposite the window. He got up and ran towards the railing. Su Wan turned around and hugged him: "Be careful. Even if there is a railing, you can't rush forward like this."
Shi Zai said "Oh" to show that he understood, then he grabbed the railing and pointed at the people on the stage: "Mom, what are they doing?"
Su Wan touched his head and explained, "They are singing."
Shi Zai didn't understand: "What is singing?"
Come, come, why are the hundred thousand human cubs coming again.
Su Wan looked back at Li Lin, hoping to get his help. Zaizai had too many questions, and sometimes she didn't know how to answer them.
Li Lin came over, knelt down on the other side of him, and said, "It's similar to storytellers. The storytellers tell the story according to the script, and they sing the drama according to the script."
Shizai knew how to listen to books. When he was in the Imperial City, Su Wan would take him to Chang'an Tower to sit and listen to books when he had free time.
He nodded in confusion, looking curious as he watched the people on the stage singing babblingly, and the rhythmic sounds coming from various musical instruments nearby.
Shi Zai was still very interested in curious things, so he leaned on the railing and listened and watched. The couple stayed with him for a while. When they saw that he was still standing still, they pulled him back and sat down.
Li Lin and Su Wan changed positions, and then sat down with the child so that he could see the stage when he raised his eyes.
Someone brought tea and snacks in the private room. Su Wan felt a little thirsty, so she took a sip of tea. At this time, the play on the stage came to an end, and then there were several girls dancing in misty clothes and veils.
The girls have graceful figures and graceful dance steps, like butterflies dancing among the flowers. Their clothes are light and fluttering, and they look like fairies descending from heaven.
Shi Zai looked at it without blinking, thinking it looked good.
But it didn't take long for the dancing to end, and then it was replaced by the storyteller.
It seems like there are quite a lot of programs.
Su Wan broke off a piece of moon cake and asked the person opposite if he wanted it.
Li Lin shook his head. He didn't like these things much. Probably the only mooncakes he liked to eat were the ones made by Su Wan. He thought they were pretty good.
Su Wan said: "I don't know how well they make this mooncake, but it seems to be pretty good. It contains walnuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, and melon seeds."
After one bite, the taste is quite good, but after eating too much, I feel a bit tired, but that's how ancient mooncakes were.
Su Wan had an idea and thought that since she could make red bean and mung bean mooncakes, could she make lotus paste or duck egg mooncakes, or... egg yolk crispy snow meiniang? !
There should be a market for these words, right?
Yes.
Su Wan suddenly felt a little moved. She didn't dare to do this in the Imperial City before, but when she came to Licheng, Li Lin was the person who knew her details best, so she was not afraid.
"Have you ever eaten mooncakes made of eggs and duck egg yolks?" she asked Li Lin.
Li Lin thought about the food he had eaten in various places he traveled to, and after a long time said: "I remember that people in Linhai seem to do this, using salted sea duck eggs as fillings, and then making mooncakes."
Su Wan asked him hurriedly: "How does it taste?"
Li Lin thought for a while, and then said: "It seems a little strange. It's delicious but not very delicious."
Su Wan was slightly confused when he heard this, and then began to think deeply. Some people like this egg yolk mooncake, and some people don't like it, but there is still a specific market. Maybe Li Jingyuan is the one who doesn't like it.
She thought for a while and said, "Go back and find some duck eggs, and I'll try to make them."
Li Lin had no objection to this. He was afraid that she would be bored at home every day and it would be nice to have something to do.
"Duck eggs? Eggs?" Shizai looked at his father and then his mother, not knowing what eggs they were talking about.
"It's duck eggs, which are similar to the eggs you usually eat." Su Wan didn't tell the boy whether he was eating duck eggs, but he ate a lot of eggs, one a day, either as steamed eggs or steamed egg custard. He ate deliciously.
"Duck eggs are laid by ducks, eggs are laid by chickens, and goose eggs are laid by geese."
Shizai thought for a while and became confused: "Then why doesn't Big Dai Erdai lay eggs?"
Li Lin and Su Wan: "..."
It is true that Dadai and Erdai do not lay eggs, and it does not mean that they cannot lay eggs. After all, these two geese are a pair, one male and one female. It is normal for them to lay eggs.
But if the eggs are laid, it is difficult to deal with them. How about raising them? It is difficult to raise them if they have too many eggs. Moreover, Dadai and Erdai can no longer fly, and they cannot teach their children to fly, so they usually add eggs into their food. got something.
Therefore, these two have never laid eggs.
Li Lin stretched out his hand and twisted his eyebrows. It was really hard to tell the child that they were not allowed to have a baby. After all, the big one and the second one couldn't fly anymore. It was hard to teach the child to fly and let him go, and they couldn't raise so many.
Li Lin reached out and touched Shi Zai's head: "You will know later."
"It's the future again!" Shizai was not happy, he put his hands on the tea seat, resting his chin on his palms and sighed, "Is this something you adults can't let children know about again?"
