The good wife and mother worked herself to death, and was reborn to win the game

Chapter 294 There's Something Wrong with This Old Lady

This was Jiang Wan's second day in this small northern town.

After she arrived here, she did not rush to call Aunt Li, but went around to get information first.

She didn't have any particularly good method, so she could only conduct a thorough search as before.

To be honest, this method is really time-consuming and laborious, and when she can't find anyone, she will feel desperate.

Jiang Wan has experienced so many disappointments that he no longer has any hope.

She seemed to be following the procedure, and since she was here, she would look through it thoroughly.

It would be best if we could find Fushou Village, but if we can’t find it, we’ll just have to go back home.

She felt a little heavy inside and was in a bad mood when she inquired about the news.

She first went to a nearby market, specifically choosing crowded places to inquire for information.

I asked almost everyone in the market, and everyone said they didn't know.

Sometimes she wondered if Wei Mingxiang was lying to her when she told him about this place?

In order to appease her, she made up an excuse and mentioned a random location, and in the end, the fool believed it.

Not only did he believe it, he also came from afar to look for it.

After experiencing disappointment again and again, Jiang Wan really felt that he was behaving like a fool at this moment.

She knew her behavior was stupid, but she refused to give up.

She thought to herself that even if she became stupid, she couldn't give up any hope.

The two children were sold just after they were born, and now we don’t know how they are living outside.

Jiang Wan hadn't seen them for so many years and now he didn't even know what they looked like.

If she met them again, would she be able to recognize them?

When Jiang Wan thought of those two children, he couldn't help but feel sad.

She worked hard all her life in her previous life and died.

She never saw her own children until her death, let alone knew what they looked like.

Now that he finally has some clues about them, Jiang Wan certainly doesn't want to give up.

She walked through a long market street. She was in a bad mood and had no intention of buying anything.

But when she saw an old lady with gray hair selling tofu pudding, she smelled the fragrance of the tofu pudding and couldn't help but stop.

"Madam, how much is a bowl of tofu pudding?"

"How about two cents a bowl? My old man just made some tofu pudding today, and it's still hot!"

The old lady was selling her products enthusiastically, and her face was wrinkled when she smiled as she spoke.

Two cents a bowl of tofu pudding is actually a bit expensive. Jiang Wan would definitely not drink it under normal circumstances, but after walking for so long today, he was a little hungry.

"Have a bowl, is there any sugar? I like sweet tofu pudding."

"Miss, I'm sorry, we only have salty tofu pudding here."

The old lady raised her head and looked at her with embarrassment.

Salty tofu pudding is usually solidified with brine, which is salty in itself. This kind of tofu pudding has a rich taste and golden color, and actually has a unique flavor.

"Then give me a serving of salty tofu pudding."

Jiang Wan has lived two lives and rarely drinks salty tofu pudding, let alone the sweet tofu pudding commonly found in the south.

Now she thinks she was such a fool.

He lives frugally and gives his money to others, and he himself is reluctant to drink even a bowl of tofu pudding which costs only one or two cents.

"Okay."

When the old lady saw the customer coming, she immediately served her a bowl.

Plastic products were not popular at that time, and people would put a few stools next to the stall to eat tofu pudding. They would then use a porcelain bowl to serve the tofu pudding and return the bowl after eating.

Generally, businessmen will take a wooden barrel with clean water in it.

Use a little water to pour out the leftovers from the bowl, then soak the bowl in water and reuse it.

Jiang Wan sat on a small wooden stool, drinking his tofu pudding quickly.

This salty tofu pudding tastes pretty good, but for southerners who have eaten too much sweet food, it always feels a bit weird.

Jiang Wan frowned while eating. Seeing her like that, the old lady couldn't help but asked with a smile.

"Girl, judging from your accent, you are not from the north, right?"

"You are used to eating sweet tofu pudding and don't like salty tofu pudding. I guess you are from the south?"

The old lady took the initiative to talk to Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan smiled and nodded in acknowledgement.

"Yes, grandma is very smart. I am from the South."

Jiang Wan took a bite of tofu pudding and chatted with the old lady. While they were chatting, she suddenly asked.

"Grandma, you are a local, right? Have you lived here for many years? Have you been doing this business for many years?"

Jiang Wan asked casually, but the old lady thought she was just chatting, so she continued with a smile.

"Yes, I'm a local. I started selling tofu pudding when I was young, and I've been selling it for decades now."

"No wonder grandma's tofu pudding is so sweet and delicious, and tastes different from other places. It turns out she is an experienced craftsman!"

Jiang Wan was very good at praising people, and he could make the old lady smile with just a few words.

"I don't deserve it, but I don't have any other skills. I can only make tofu pudding to support my family."

The old lady burst into laughter after being praised, and a few more wrinkles appeared on her face.

When she smiled, she looked very kind and somewhat amiable.

"Then little girl, you came from the south to the north, is there something going on?"

The old lady asked curiously in not very fluent Mandarin.

"Well, something happened at home. After eating, I can go to my relatives."

"I have searched many places but still can't find my relative's residence. If I can't find it this time, I will have to go back home."

Jiang Wan sighed heavily and said with some frustration.

The old lady asked curiously after hearing her words.

"Which village does the relative you're looking for live in? Maybe I'll know."

"I have lived in this town for decades. Although I see people setting up stalls every day, I know quite a few people."

"Every customer who came to eat tofu pudding would chat with me, and gradually I learned a lot of information."

The old lady was a little proud when she said this. Jiang Wan finished the last mouthful of tofu pudding and put down the bowl before asking.

"If that's the case, then grandma must be very powerful."

"Grandma, have you ever heard of a place called Fushou Village? I heard that my relatives live there."

In order to get the news, Jiang Wan forced a smile.

Who would have thought that the old lady who was originally talkative would suddenly change her expression when she heard the three words "Fushou Village".

Her face was pale and the corners of her mouth were pursed into a straight line.

The old man who was very talkative just now seemed to have suddenly become mute, pretending not to hear this place, or even deliberately pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Jiang Wan saw that something was wrong with her and immediately asked.

"Grandma, grandma, have you heard of Fushou Village? Do you know where this village is?"

Jiang Wan looked at her expectantly, but the old lady just looked at her coldly and said coldly, "I don't know."
