十二岁的郑语唐从小在杂货店里长大，她家的杂货店是经营了七十多年的老字号。杂货店开在偏僻的油棕园丘里，做的是街坊生意。年纪轻轻的语唐非常乖巧懂事，在不用上学的日子里，她不是帮忙看店，就是骑着三轮车到处送货，所以生活总是少了同龄小孩该有的乐趣。她经常在杂货店里忙进忙出，被街坊称作“杂货店的女儿”。
有一天，杂货店收到一通要求送货的电话，送货地点竟是传说中死过人的“鬼屋”。语唐把货送去时不见人影，她只在门边找到一张字条，让她觉得那人非常神秘。直到一次送货途中，语唐遇见了迟迟未现身的“神秘人”，她留意到对方的言行举止与众不同。自那天起，她不停探查对方的身份，一心想查出底细。
在这过程中，杂货店女儿和神秘人的关系一天天地在改变，她的生活也在短暂的假期里起了微妙的变化……
Cheng Yee Tang grew up in a grocery shop which had been in business for the past 70 over years. It was situated in an oil palm estate faraway and only had the neighbours as its customers. Being an obedient and matured girl, Yee Tang, even though young in age, was a veteran business lady. She would help out in the shop when she was not in school or she would be busy riding her trishaw to do deliveries. She missed out on her childhood and was often seen bustling around the shop which earned her the nickname of ‘The Grocer’s Daughter’.
One day, there was a phone call requesting for delivery. The delivery address was a supposedly haunted house where somebody had died before. Yee Tang delivered the goods to the house without meeting anybody. There was only a note by the door, which made it all the more mysterious. Yee Tang finally got to meet the mysterious person while delivering some goods. She tried to take note of that person’s every move and realized that he was very unique. From that day onwards, she tried even harder to find out more about that person’s identity.
In the process, the relationship between the two of them changed from day to day. In the short span of the holidays, her life changed subtly…
