    An elderly woman lived in a quiet, peaceful, friendly neighborhood. A neighbor from across the street asked her daughter "Hey, sweetie, how about going across the street to ask how old Ms. Jones is?" The daughter did just that, went across the street, and saw Ms. Jones. A few minutes later, the daughter came back home, shaken, and told her mother "Ms. Jones said it's none of your business how old she is".

    "Ask how old Ms. Jone is doing?"

    Adding one word may have clarified of the question. :D

    The kid's mom asked her daughter to see how "Old Ms. Smith" is, saying it just like that. Does that help?
