The Cooperative Society in the town didn't have too many fancy items, not even ready-made clothes.
In this era, about eighty percent of clothes were made from fabric bought and sewn at home, or tailored by a dressmaker. Only larger Cooperative Societies sold ready-made clothes, and even luxurious items like woolen coats were scarce in the Cooperative Society of the provincial city.
Lin Nianhe had to give up the idea of understanding the clothing market at this opportunity.
Wang Xixi said she wanted to buy things for her wedding, but after looking around, she didn't buy anything for herself. Instead, she bought a box of clam oil and a half-pound of assorted candy.
Holding the items, she smiled at Lin Nianhe, "My mother's hands have been cracking recently."
"Mm," Lin Nianhe smiled and nodded, "Aunt Wang works hard."
Wang Xixi asked her, "Aren't you buying anything?"
