Chapter 35: Not Asking You to Make a Wish

Chapter 35: Not Asking You to Make a Wish
"It's okay. As long as everyone works together, life will get better and better." As she spoke, Bai Tao patted her chest with her little hands, her childish voice full of strength that warmed people's hearts.

"Who made me your aunt?"

Bai Dashan, who was originally worried, was immediately amused.

The villagers not far away didn't know what was going on, but when they saw Bai Tao patting her chest and shouting this, they immediately agreed without thinking.

"Yes! Our aunt is the best!"

"Yes, it's the most amazing!"

Faced with the villagers' applause, Bai Tao couldn't help but laugh out loud. The emotional value provided was really very good.

Bai Tao has not forgotten the contributions of Lao Heitou and others, but what should he give them in return?

After thinking about it, she couldn't think of anything, so she called someone over.

"I've given you credit before. Is there anything you want right now?"

I originally thought that my aunt wanted to talk to them about something, but I didn't expect it to be this.

More than a dozen people didn't react for a moment. We looked at each other, all confused.

what do you want?
There's nothing I want!

"Dashan, you speak first." Bai Tao thought they were embarrassed and started calling out their names one by one.

Bai Dashan came back to his senses and said without thinking: "I hope my aunt will be as blessed as the East Sea and as long-lived as the South Mountain."

Bai Tao was helpless: "I asked you to say what you want, not to say anything auspicious." It's not a festival.

"Aunt, I don't have much to ask for. I just have one wish: I hope you will be blessed with good fortune and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

"Okay!" Bai Tao had no choice but to look at the others: "What about you guys, do you want food or clothes?"

Others also shook their heads, and then said, "Aunt, we just want you to be healthy and live a long life."

Bai Tao: "Okay, okay, I know you are filial. So is there anything you want?"

"Tell me, I'll give you a reward." If no one said anything, she would just buy it randomly.

"Auntie, if you are happy every day and healthy, we will be satisfied."

Everyone in Taohua Village understands that the aunt was probably a gift from God to Taohua Village. As long as the aunt is around, Taohua Village will get better and better, just as she said.

My aunt provided them with food, clothing and daily necessities, so what else could they not be satisfied with?

Bai Tao looked at everyone's serious expressions and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Forget it, forget it, let me think about it myself." Bai Tao had no choice but to wave her hand and let them go.

As night falls, Bai Tao and the villagers are trying new things - washing their faces with toothpaste and toothbrushes, and washing their hands with soap.

"This is similar to soap, but this soap has better cleaning power. Keeping hygiene can help you get sick less often. From now on, everyone should wash their hands before and after meals."

It happened that when it rained yesterday, the villagers collected a lot of rainwater. Now they boil some of it and mix it with the cold rain water, so it doesn’t feel like a waste.

"When I find time later, I'll teach you how to make soap."

When they heard that they could make such a fragrant and smooth soap by themselves, they were so happy: "Auntie, we must learn it well."

I'll sell it when the time comes and exchange it for something for my aunt.

"Come here, look at me. This is toothpaste, and this is a toothbrush. Together they can produce foam and clean your teeth..."

It is so funny to see a five-year-old baby teaching a group of people how to brush their teeth and wash their faces.

Bai Tao originally planned to let everyone figure it out on their own. After brushing their teeth for a long time, they would know what was going on. However, the villagers were too eager to learn. They all looked at her eagerly, wanting her to teach them, so she had no choice but to roll up her sleeves and teach them.

In front of a cave on a mountain path, a group of young and old wearing colorful jackets gathered together, holding toothpaste and toothbrushes in their hands. From a distance, no one would think it was ancient times.

On the black frame in front of the cave, Bai Tao held toothpaste and a toothbrush in one hand and began to explain bit by bit.

Looking at the villagers squatting below with serious expressions on their faces, she inexplicably felt like a child playing house and being a teacher.

"Up and down, left and right, inside and outside..."

If he saw someone doing something wrong, he would point it out: "Be gentle, don't poke yourself until you bleed, just like when you used the willow branches."

"Stay a little further away, don't bump your elbows into others while brushing."

"Yes, brush both sides. If you clean thoroughly, you won't get cavities."

"Toothpaste is a little spicy. It tastes minty."

In fact, toothpaste has the function of preventing swallowing, which means it will prompt you to spit out the contents in your mouth. However, Bai Tao was afraid that some people would not take it seriously, so she still said it seriously.

"Don't swallow the water you use to rinse your mouth. Spit it out."

Adults have toothpaste and toothbrushes for adults, and children have toothpaste and toothbrushes for children. The only difference is that the colors and cartoon images are different to make them easier to distinguish.

The little kids looked at the children's toothpaste and toothbrush in their own hands, then looked at the one in Bai Tao's hand, and they were so excited.

Look, the ones in my aunt’s hand are all clay figures, but some of them look weird and they don’t recognize them.

The adults looked at the toothbrushes in their own hands and then at the ones in their children's hands, feeling envious. They thought it was great to be a child because they could use the same toothbrush as their grandparents.

If children’s toothbrush heads were not too small for adults to use, they would probably have to be coaxed into changing them by the adults at home.

Even though they were not traveling today, the villagers were not idle. Soon after washing up, they went to bed one after another.

Bai Tao browsed the mall for a while excitedly because she made a lot of money today.

Before going to bed, she took a special look and found that there were still twelve hours before the end of the mission.

Yesterday it rained heavily, and there were huge rocks and mudslides. The severity of the situation was already quite severe.

If nothing happens tonight, we can get a large truck at nine tomorrow morning.

Bai Tao thought about it, full of anticipation. Even though she was still young and couldn't open it, and the villagers had never touched this thing, it was better to have it than nothing.

At this time, outside the cave, Bai Dashan instructed the people who took turns to keep watch.

"Everyone, pay attention and listen for any noises. If there's anything wrong, wake everyone up in time."

"There are many ferocious beasts in the forest, so the fire must not be too small."

"My aunt said that after tonight, we can breathe a sigh of relief."

Thinking of the falling rocks and the dragon claws ahead, Bai Dashan still felt a little uneasy.

"Village chief, don't worry, we understand." In fact, even without Bai Dashan's words, the villagers who took turns to keep watch did not dare to be careless.

It was around three in the morning when Bai Tao was awakened by a loud noise.

She first looked at the task time progress, and saw that there were still six hours, twenty-three minutes and seventeen seconds left. She couldn't help but roll her eyes.

I knew something would happen tonight, and it turned out to be true.
