Chapter 59 - 58: 100 Goods Market
Grandma also has some skills, inherited handmade soap passed down from ancestors. She usually sells them in a room by the door. After the policy changed, she made some to sell.
Grandma usually relies on this to make a living.
When Lin Wan came in, she saw Grandma sitting inside the shop, fanning herself with a sunflower fan. Seeing someone enter, she quickly struggled to get up from the rocking chair and asked, "What would the young lady like to buy?"
Grandma turned seventy-five this year, slightly plump, giving the impression of being very friendly and easy to talk to.
Lin Wan smiled awkwardly and glanced around the room. Besides a wooden shelf against one wall filled with soap wrapped in oil paper, there was only a table and a rocking chair.
On the table was a large porcelain teapot with the slogan "Serving the People." Beneath it was a red iron thermos. In one corner of the room, there was also a rotating fan. Lin Wan remembered this fan.
This should be the fan Han Yi bought Grandma earlier this year, but she was reluctant to use it, and only after they got married did she begin to use it.
Han Ying, noticing this young girl staring around the room without speaking, asked again, "Are you here to buy soap?"
Lin Wan then withdrew her gaze and looked at Han Ying, saying, "I want to buy a few pieces of soap."
"Take a look and choose what you like; they’re all 20 cents each. If you have tickets, you can use food tickets or fabric tickets—pick what you like," Han Ying said with a smile. Usually, neighbors come by to buy, but today it was rare to meet someone unfamiliar.
