What to eat has become a problem for Jiang Xia.

In the past, she often went to big restaurants to eat, but there were always companions, and Jiang Xia didn't want to find anyone to go out to eat with her temporarily.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xia finally decided to check out his favorite snack street.

Before she went to school, she would go to the snack street with her friends every now and then, shopping from the street to the end of the street, and then eating to the end of the street.

He happily went to the busiest and busiest snack street in Beijing. Seeing the crowds of people around him, Jiang Xia suddenly felt a little lonely.

After all, this world is not the place where she grew up. She has no friends of her own. She remembers that she once told her good friends that they would be each other's lifelong friends.

But now, her friends probably don't know that they have completely lost her, and she can only miss them alone in another time and space.

The aroma of delicious food wafting all over the street could no longer attract Jiang Xia. She walked a little lonely on the street, without destination, walking and stopping, trying to find some familiar shadows in the familiar snacks.

This was naturally Jiang Xia's extravagant hope. She sighed helplessly, and finally walked to a deserted street corner, then sat on a bench and stared at the passers-by in a daze.

He didn't know how long he sat there until an old voice suddenly sounded in his ears, pulling Jiang Xia back from his thoughts.

"Little girl, I see you sitting here for a long time, sighing from time to time. Have you encountered something unhappy? Let me treat you to a bowl of ice jelly. My granddaughter always says that eating something sweet will make you feel better. .”

Jiang Xia looked up and saw an old woman with a stooped back and white hair standing in front of her.

The old woman's face was wrinkled and she looked older than the grandma in Jiang Xia's memory. Her clothes were still patched, but she was very clean and tidy. She also wore an apron with a white background and blue flowers around her waist.

Jiang Xia was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized. She stood up a little flattered, then took the bowl of jelly handed over by the old woman with both hands, and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, grandma. I'm just a little sad, but I'm feeling much better."

"Eat quickly. There are no obstacles in life that you can't overcome. You are still young. What are you afraid of? Don't be afraid of anything. The days will only get better and better."

As soon as the old woman said these words, Jiang Xia's whole body seemed to be bathed in the warm sunshine of early spring, and his whole body was healed instantly.

Yes, she has nothing to be afraid of. Her relatives now are hundreds of times better than before. Although her former friends are gone, she can still make new ones.

Jiang Xia was enlightened and thanked her again, "Grandma, thank you so much. Listening to your words is better than ten years of reading. I feel like I'm not sad anymore."

"As long as you're not sad, a beautiful little girl like you should be happy."

After the old woman finished speaking, she smiled at Jiang Xia, then pointed to a stall under a streetlight not far away and said, "If you still want to eat after eating, go find me over there."

Jiang Xia nodded repeatedly, "Okay, thank you, grandma."

That's what she said, but Jiang Xia still took out her phone and said, "Grandma, do you have the QR code? I'll transfer the money to you."

Seeing how Jiang Xia could not bear to eat her food for free when she was still setting up a stall to make money at such an old age.

But the old woman waved her hand and said: "You eat yours, it was the old woman who invited you to eat, and I don't have that horse. I have asked others to help me before. They said that my mobile phone is not a smart phone and cannot use 2D." code."

After the old woman finished speaking, she ignored Jiang Xia's cell phone and staggered toward her stall.

Watching the old woman leave, Jiang Xia silently sat back on the bench. She used to only bring a mobile phone with her when going out, and she had no cash on her.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xia took a photo of the jelly with her mobile phone and started eating it, not wanting to let down the old woman's kindness.

The small disposable bowl contained crystal clear jelly, with a layer of water made from brown sugar poured on top. The jelly took on a light amber color against the background of the brown sugar.

Take a bite, it's smooth, tender and refreshing, sweet but not greasy.

This taste was familiar to Jiang Xia's memory. A small mouthful of jelly almost made Jiang Xia cry.

While eating jelly, Jiang Xia kept paying attention to the old woman's stall.

The old woman did not shout and hawk like other stall owners, but sat silently next to the stall. Many people passed by, but almost no one came forward to buy.

After eating the jelly, Jiang Xia couldn't sit still, so she walked directly to the old woman and asked: "Grandma, I have nothing to do, why don't I help you sell the jelly."

When the old woman saw Jiang Xia coming over, she said: "No, no, you little girls are thin-skinned, so don't embarrass yourself over this little thing. Is the jelly delicious? Do you want another bowl?"

Jiang Xia praised the old lady's jelly without hesitation, "It's so delicious. It was my favorite taste when I was a child. I'm so happy tonight."

When she said this, Jiang Xia had a smile on her face. When the old woman saw this, she couldn't help but smile and nod, "Just be happy. If you like it, just have another bowl. You don't have to sell it for me."

However, Jiang Xia smiled and shouted to passers-by: "They are selling jelly. The handmade brown sugar jelly is refreshing and delicious, sweet but not greasy. Don't miss it if you pass by~"

When he said this, Jiang Xia deliberately took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, and then pointed it at the jelly on the stall, hoping that passers-by could see the situation more clearly.

Jiang Xia's shout instantly attracted the attention of many passers-by.

When everyone found out that the stall owner selling jelly was actually a young and beautiful girl, and sitting next to her was an old woman with completely white hair, many people thought that the two generations of grandparents and grandchildren, who had a poor family, were working together to earn living expenses.

Some are curious, some are sympathetic, some are pitiful.

Under various emotions, passers-by soon came to buy jelly.

After Jiang Xia opened here, business came very quickly. The old woman was a little busy, but while greeting the guests, she didn't forget to say thank you to Jiang Xia.

Like Jiang Xia, many customers did not bring cash and could only transfer money via mobile phone. Jiang Xia discussed with the old woman that she would collect the money on her behalf first, and then go to the store to exchange cash after the stall was closed.

The old woman naturally agreed. She had been setting up a stall for several months, but she had never had such a good business.

Jiang Xia's help made him busy for more than two hours.

In fact, it only took more than an hour to sell jelly, but she was recognized later, and many people asked her to take photos, so the old woman had to wait for Jiang Xia for more than half an hour.

When the work was finally over, Jiang Xia naturally helped the old woman cash out all the money collected from her mobile phone as promised. The old woman was so happy that she drew another ten-yuan note and gave it to Jiang Xia, "I'll buy you some candy here. I'm in a bad mood." When the time comes, it will definitely be better to eat something sweet.”

Jiang Xia didn't want it, but the old woman insisted on giving it. In the end, Jiang Xia couldn't resist the old man and could only accept the ten yuan.

After the two separated, Jiang Xia took out her mobile phone and took another photo of the ten dollars, and logged in to her account to update the news.

[Mi Chong’s eating, drinking and having fun: Today I earned pocket money from the jelly stall on Ping’an Old Street. Thank you to my grandma for the brown sugar jelly. It’s a very healing snack. I hope I can meet it again next time. 】

Jiang Xia also specially included photos of two copies and ten dollars.

Looking at the bowl of jelly and the ten yuan that the old lady bought, Jiang Xia felt that she should advertise for the old lady, hoping that she would set up a stall in the future and her business would be better.
