Liu Xinyue took in everyone's expression and smiled, but did not explain anything.

Taking over the small box that Cai He had brought over, Liu Xinyue put it into the old village head's hands and said: "Grandfather, because you've come in a hurry, and furthermore, I don't know what I should buy for grandfather."

"So I feel that it would be better to let grandpa buy something he likes."

Seeing that old village head did not reach out to take the small box, Liu Xinyue took the initiative to pull the old village head's hand and placed the small box into his own.

"Village Chief, open it and see what it is?"

"That's right, what can such a small box contain?" We are very curious! "

"That's right, Village Head, open it and take a look."

Seeing that, everyone stretched out their necks, requesting old village head to open the small box, so that they could see what was inside.

Such a small box shouldn't be able to hold anything good, right?

Hearing that, the old village head wanted to reject it, but was firmly rejected by Liu Xinyue.

"Grandfather, I'm often not by your side, so you must take good care of yourself. This is what I do for you."

"Grandfather, no matter what you say, you must accept it! Otherwise, I will leave immediately! "

Hearing Liu Xinyue's words, the old village head had no choice but to accept the small box. At the same time, he heard the surrounding villagers' requests, and slowly opened the small box.

When he opened the box, Cai He realized that it was not the box that stored the mask from before.

"Strange, when did Mistress change the box?"

They were inside the carriage all along!

When the small box was opened, there was only a paper-like item inside. When old village head saw this, he immediately understood what it was.

"Yi, what is this thing? Is it a letter? "

"No, I seem to have seen this somewhere before."

"You're all fools, those are silver notes!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience cried out in alarm. Silver banknotes! This girl was too generous, she actually gave him a banknote!

As expected of the Prime Minister's daughter!

"Alright, alright. Since everyone has already seen it, then let's disperse. Disperse!"

old village head quickly closed the small box, and then shouted to the surrounding villagers.

When the villagers saw that they had met, and saw that the old village head looked as if they had private matters to discuss, they dispersed one by one while laughing.

"Alright, little girl, come with me."

Seeing that, Liu Xinyue immediately said: "Grandfather, let's take the carriage, it's convenient."

old village head also did not retreat. Last year, after he fell down at home, his legs became inconvenient.

So, old village head sat on the carriage, and ordered Ya Er to bring the carriage to his house.

After arriving at home, the moment old village head entered the room, he stuffed the small box in his hands into Liu Xinyue's hands and warned him: "Silly girl, there were so many people outside who were inconvenient to talk about. It's better if you put these things away properly, I know that it will be difficult for you to live there, and it'll be more convenient with this."

"Grandfather, you know all about it?" Liu Xinyue was startled, he did not expect old village head to know how she was doing in the capital.

"You were born in the middle of winter. When he sent you over, I remember it was very cold and it was snowing, but you only had a thin piece of cotton wrapping around you. Nothing else."

"And at that time, he was only sitting in the carriage, and he didn't even enter through the door."

With that, old village head pulled Liu Xinyue's hand and sat down, continuing.

"Later on, it was the wet nurse who carried you to me and gave me a silver ingot. She said that she would give me a fee every month."

After saying that, old village head looked at Liu Xinyue and laughed helplessly.

"However, ever since I placed you here, this person has never come to see you again, let alone paid a fee."

"Earlier, I had some expectations for him, thinking that he was just too busy with his duties to come and see you."

"But as the days passed, from winter to spring, from spring to summer, and from summer to autumn, he did not come."

"Just like this, I no longer have any expectations for him, and he is no longer worthy of my expectations."

Liu Xinyue never thought that it would actually be like this at that time.

Back then, her Dingshan Village wasn't that rich, not only did the old village head have to support her family, she also had to take care of her mother.

"Grandfather, it's not easy for you to raise me. These are things your granddaughter has filial piety for you, so just accept them." After Liu Xinyue finished listening, he knew that it wasn't easy for the old man, so he returned the small box back and said, "I'm still pretty good in Prime Minister's Estate, there's food and clothes, and Cai He is attending to me, don't worry."

"But little girl, I went to Prime Minister's Estate before, and even specifically asked around for you. However, I didn't say anything to you, and only one old granny said that you're not doing well, and that you're often beaten up. Is this true?"

"Nothing. I'm your granddaughter, grandpa. Who would dare to bully me?" Liu Xinyue laughed as he shook his head.

old village head looked at Liu Xinyue for a while, seeing that she was not lying, he could not help but look at the small box and said: "Even if it's really as you said, you should take it back.

"Your mother left early, and no one in the mansion can help you. Even the one in the backyard would not be any better off if he had prepared some clothes for you."

"And with these silver notes, you can buy yourself some good quality new clothes, new jewelry, and so on. That way, you don't need to be looked down upon."

Listening to old village head's sincere words, Liu Xinyue's nose did not feel sour at all. Blinking his eyes, he forced himself not to cry.

How long had it been since someone had truly cared about her?

But, the old village head was more concerned with the real Liu Xinyue, not her!

"Grandfather, I'll tell you the truth, I earned this silver myself." Liu Xinyue could not bear to see the old man like this. Furthermore, on the way here, she realised that old village head's house was in the most remote place in the village. Furthermore, it was the simplest house, a tile-roofed house.

"Girl, did you earn all this by yourself?"

old village head was still constantly reminding Liu Xinyue when he suddenly heard her words. He couldn't help but be startled, laughing as he opened the small box, and said, "Our family's little girl has grown up and knows how to earn money, then let grandpa see how much she earned."

"A hundred liang or two hundred liang?"

Opening the small box, old village head took out the silver notes from inside and looked at them with his hands.
