Qin Hexuan held Qingtian's hand that was covering her eyes and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, it really looks scary, but the spray won't reach us.
"Besides, there are so many guards here, they will protect us."
Upon hearing this, the guards on both sides immediately took a half step forward and protected the two men behind them.
Qingtian finally regained her sense of security, but her little body was still tightly pressed against Qin Hexuan, her eyes fixed on the fire dragons spewing out from the field. Finally, there was no fear in her eyes anymore, but surprise and admiration.
Taking advantage of the break after the fire-breathing show, Qin Hexuan lowered his head and asked, "Are you tired after standing for so long?"
Qingtian shook his head repeatedly, but his eyes were still fixed on the stage, because the next performer to come on stage was the trapeze artist.
Many people from the Song family came up carrying things and soon built a wooden rack three stories high in the middle of the venue.
Qingtian looked up at the top of the shelf. Are they going to perform on such a high shelf?
The enthusiasm of the onlookers grew higher and higher, with applause and cheers continuing.
The young apprentices of the Song family troupe were carrying plates and moving back and forth among the crowd.
The sound of copper coins falling into the plate can be heard continuously.
In order to see the aerial acrobatic performance, the audience became more generous at this time.
This is always the time when we collect the most money.
After a long time, when some audience members had begun to express their dissatisfaction, the twin brother and sister finally appeared on stage.
They wore very tight clothes, with their cuffs and trouser legs tied tightly with colorful strips of cloth, and long ribbons draped over their bodies.
The two people caused huge cheers as soon as they appeared.
Qingtian was infected by the atmosphere and started shouting along with the people around him.
Qin Hexuan patted her head and said, "Don't shout like them, or you might hurt your voice."
But Qingtian was too busy to respond to him.
Because at this time the twins had already climbed to the top of the shelf and fixed the ribbon there.
Then, when everyone was caught off guard, two people suddenly jumped down.
"Ah--" Qingtian screamed in fright, raised his hands to cover his eyes, and dared not look at the field.
Qin Hexuan was amused by her timid and playful appearance.
"Don't cover your eyes, or you'll miss the exciting part."
Qingtian now understood that the leap just now was definitely part of the performance.
She let go of her hands and looked up at the field, only to see two people hanging in the air with ribbons in their hands, swinging back and forth with the help of inertia, doing all kinds of difficult movements, just like two butterflies flying up and down in the air.
There were cheers all around, and more and more people were willing to donate generously.
Qingtian was so engrossed in watching that she didn't even want to blink. Her two little hands couldn't stop clapping, and her palms were red from clapping herself.
The twin brother and sister had a tacit understanding, and after a long period of practice, their cooperation can be said to be seamless.
After a performance, the two people let go of the ribbons they had been holding in their hands, jumped down and landed steadily, constantly bowing to the cheering audience.
The audience's emotions were also pushed to the peak.
Then the two men picked up the plates and walked into the crowd, speaking auspicious words skillfully, hoping that everyone would give more money.
Qin Hexuan bent down and picked up Qingtian, and asked, "Does it look good?"
"It's beautiful!" Qingtian nodded repeatedly. "They are both amazing!"
She had seen a circus once before when she was in Huinan.
At that time, Mrs. Shan was not pregnant yet, and Mr. Shan was quite nice to her. He took her to the city to attend the market and watched some acrobatics.
The acrobatic troupe at that time was very small, with only a dozen people in total, and the performances were very simple and crude.
But Qingtian still watched it with great interest.
As the last show was about to begin, the people from the circus came over with plates to collect money.
Boss Shan was reluctant to spend money on this, so he just took Qingtian away.
Later, Qingtian would always think of this incident, wondering in his heart what the last show would be and whether it would be particularly interesting.
But at that time, Mrs. Shan was already pregnant, and Mr. Shan was not as kind to her as before.
Every time she opens her eyes, there is endless work waiting for her.
No one took her to the market anymore, let alone to see a variety show.
I didn’t expect that I would finally see a complete circus in Beijing today.
Especially the last show, it was absolutely more exciting than she had imagined.
Qingtian's little face flushed with excitement, and her eyes were fixed on the twin boy and girl, which made Qin Hexuan feel a little jealous.
Especially when the twins came up to him holding plates, Qingtian was so excited that his little body kept leaning forward.
Qin Hexuan had to reach out and hold her tightly to prevent her from falling headfirst.
"Do you like it that much?" Qin Hexuan's tone was somewhat helpless.
"Brother Qin, don't you think it looks bad?" Qingtian asked in surprise.
"It's great!" Qin Hexuan actually had no interest in this kind of fancy performance. In his eyes, watching these was not as interesting as watching the soldiers fighting in the army.
But as long as it's sunny, it's fun to watch.
So when the twins brought the plate in front of him, Qin Hexuan directly threw a piece of silver on it.
The brother and sister rarely saw such generous audiences at the market, and they all surrounded Qin Hexuan to thank him.
Qin Hexuan took a step back while holding Qingtian and said calmly, "You performed well. My sister was very happy to see you."
The two of them were able to become the mainstays of the circus troupe, not only because they had real skills, but also because they were very good at handling things.
After hearing the implication of Qin Hexuan's words, they immediately expressed their gratitude to Qingtian in his arms.
