In addition to the shops lining the streets, there were also numerous street vendors who carried their goods in baskets, traveling through the alleys. It was Wen'er and Wu'er's first time going out, and they felt that their eyes weren't enough to take in all the new sights. Their big eyes, like black grapes, showed curiosity at everything they saw, whether it was the selling of firecrackers, New Year cakes, or rouge powder. Especially when they passed by a stall where clay figurines were being molded, the two children, hand in hand, stood in front of the stall, staring with wide-eyed curiosity and excitement at the life-like clay figures.
The vendor, noticing the children's well-dressed appearance which suggested they came from a well-off family, enthusiastically tried to make a sale: "Young masters, why not have a clay figure made? They're quite cheap, just eight copper coins each. If both of you want one, I'll give you both for fifteen copper coins!"
