The three of them caught a bus, and after a ride of about 20 minutes, they arrived at the department store. Stepping off the bus, they saw a three-story building standing tall in the distance, a stark contrast to the low-slung houses surrounding it. This was the most famous department store in the Provincial Capital.
Feng Qingqing held her two treasures tightly by the hand and walked slowly toward the building. Since it was a weekday, the area in front of the department store was not particularly crowded. She led the children inside to the first floor. The ground floor was primarily dedicated to food, daily necessities, and household sundries—a dizzying array of diverse items.
They headed first to the food counter. Compared to Nanjiang County, the Provincial Capital offered a far greater variety and quantity. They sold sponge cakes, peach blossom cakes, sachima, egg cakes, and various candies, including hard fruit candies and the famous White Rabbit creamy candies.
