This was a market place set up in the pathways of the temple.
It angered Jesus - thievery, dishonesty, and predatory practices.
Matthew 21:
12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
All of the gospels mention this event.
as above

" Does anyone know what passage in the bible it discusses Jesus in the market place, stones and scales? "
There is no single passage in The Bible that contains the words Jesus, marketplace, stones and scale.
The only way to do such is to combine two or more different
passages. The answer to your sister' trivia question as stated is that such a thing does not exist. When asked to present the passage for verification it will surely be found as not to exist.
Have pleasant day.

Matthew 21:12-13
Mark 11:15
Luke 19:45
John 2:13
Must have been quite an event since all four gospels covered it.
