This village road gradually became the main street of their village.
Along the way, she saw several familiar houses, but she never saw the person she remembered.
The car continued to move forward and finally arrived at the place where she had lived for more than ten years in her previous life, but...
Xu Manman's eyes widened. "No? How could there be no?"
She couldn't believe it. The location of her hometown was completely different from what she remembered, and the people in the shop were people she had never seen before.
“Xu Manman” doesn’t have it, and the Xu family… doesn’t have it either?
Jin Zichu parked the car in an open space in front, "Manman, do you want to go down and take a look?"
Xu Manman carefully observed the surrounding street scenes and the completely unfamiliar villagers through the car window, and also accepted this reality.
All the people and things related to her in her previous life no longer exist.
This is Blue Planet, Earth, and it is also the late 1990s, but it is not the same time and space as her previous life.
In another time and space, in October 1997, three-year-old "Xu Manman" followed the little kids in the village and played in the mud everywhere. His father Xu Cheng was busy taking measurements and making clothes for the villagers who had just arrived, while his mother Zhao Zhongli was operating a sewing machine nearby.
In this time and space, only Hai Shi was born in October 1997. Now 39 years old, Xu Manman is sitting in a car while her parents are traveling in Jiangsu Province.
In this small village in Hunan Province, there is no "her" and nothing related to "her".
Xu Manman lowered her eyes, looked at the lines on her palm, and whispered, "No need to go."
The things of the previous life are over, and there will be no trace of "her" in this time and space. It is time for her to really let go.
Although I can't find the people I remember, this trip was not wrong.
After figuring it out, Xu Manman regained her energy and spirit, and she was very interested in driving Jin Zichu around the area herself.
Although the people are strangers and there is no longer any trace of "her" and "her" family, the place is familiar.
"Before my younger brother was born, I only had one older cousin. I would always run around with him, doing everything from the mountains to the fields. See that ditch? I used to fish there a lot."
The car drove up a long slope. "My great-grandfather and great-grandmother originally lived in the mountains, not far from here. After their children got married, they were separated. The family on the slope is my great-grandfather, and the one living at the bottom of the slope is my youngest grandfather. Most of the Xu family's brothers and sisters live in this area.
If you shout something on the street now, eight out of ten people will be related to the Xu family."
Xu Manman recalled the funny things that happened during her childhood. "When I was in school, I loved to sleep in. My dad couldn't stand it. Every time he couldn't wake me up, he threatened to go to the street and shout if I didn't get up.
I was very thin-skinned at that time, and I was afraid of being socially disgraced, so every time he used this trick, I would get up obediently, until I…” Xu Manman didn’t continue, but her expression was relaxed.
After thinking it over, facing these memories again will feel less sad and painful.
Jin Zichu looked at his wife intently, playing the role of a perfect listener.
The village is not big, and it only takes more than 20 minutes to drive around it.
After introducing the village primary school to Xiao Jin, Xu Manman turned the car around and drove towards the town.
After visiting the town and the middle school, Xu Manman took Jin Zichu to the county town and had the bowl of rice noodles that she missed the most.
The rice noodles were served. Xu Manman took the chopsticks that Jin Zichu took out of the bag and said, "Actually, the most authentic rice noodles are from the next city. We live close to each other, and I learned the craft there."
Having said that, Xu Manman still thinks the food in her own county tastes the best.
Jin Zichu analyzed the recipe and method while eating, and he could make it for his wife anytime when he returned to the space.
After staying in the county town for three days, Xu Manman took Jin Zichu to the next city to eat the most authentic rice noodles, which tasted really good.
Because this used to be an inland port, there were many outsiders and boatmen coming and going, which allowed the city to develop a unique culinary talent.
Not only the bowl of beef rice noodles that became famous throughout the country, but also the cold dishes, dumplings, pot stickers, spicy braised dried fish, etc. are all extremely delicious.
During the few days Xu Manman stayed here, all she did was eat and pack up.
Although Xiao Jin can go back to the space to reproduce it after eating it, the ones sold locally are still different.
Afterwards, they went to the provincial capital, where the eldest brother attended military school.
In later generations, this city also developed into a famous internet celebrity check-in spot, but compared to its star power, Xu Manman is more interested in the local food.
