Xiuxiu's mother then opened the paper package and saw that it contained two white flour buns. She quickly put them away and asked her daughter, "Xiuxiu, has anyone else seen this?"
She pointed to the paper bag in her hand.
Xiuxiu shook her head. "No, my elder sister asked me to bring it back for my family to eat. I hid it secretly and no one knew about it."
"Xiu Xiu is so good!" Her mother praised her with a smile.
Xiuxiu rummaged through her pockets again, "Mother, Big Sister also gave me frostbite cream, saying that if you apply it on me every night, it will stop itching."
Xiuxiu was wearing too many clothes and couldn't find the money after searching for a long time. Her mother helped her and took out a small jar and a piece of silver from her pocket.
Xiuxiu's mother was stunned. "How come there is still silver?"
Xiuxiu leaned over and took a look. "It must have been given by my elder sister. She put it in my pocket."

Xiuxiu's mother stood there holding the insole for a while before going home.
The next day, Village Chief Liu took out the food left by Shen Nian and notified every household to come and collect it.
There wasn't much food, but each family could get five pounds.
This was also Shen Nian and the others' way of thanking the villagers for the gifts. They had no choice but to return them in this way.
He was afraid that the villagers would not accept it, so he told Village Chief Liu to wait until they left before giving it to them.
The matter in Xinping Town came to an end for the time being. After Shen Nian and the others reunited with the emperor, they set out directly to return to the capital.
