Chapter 58 Toothpaste and Toothbrush
After Jiang Ling'er and her daughter heard what Zhao Shi said, a big drama immediately appeared in their minds.

When something happened to the family, they hid in the mountains and avoided the world.

This hiding may last for hundreds of years.

Where is Zhao Shi?
I walked out accidentally, and then I came to Qingshan County wearing weird clothes last time.

and then?
The family was afraid that some secrets would be leaked, so they sent people to capture Zhao Shi. However, because he was worried about his wife, he was killed in an accident while trying to escape again.

Scenes of Zhao Shi's escape and resistance against his family emerged in their minds.

For a moment, the two of them burst into tears, and Zhao Shi's image in their hearts instantly became taller.

Zhao Shi had no idea that the two of them had imagined a big drama in their minds, and he didn't understand why they started crying while laughing.

All I can say is, don’t try to guess what a woman is thinking.

I can't guess it.

"Ling'er, take this silver and use it to buy a yard and continue buying jade!" Zhao Shi waved his hand, and a row of silver ingots appeared on the table.

Well.
Looking at the silver ingots on the table, both of them were stunned.

Twenty ingots.

Nearly four hundred taels of silver.

It was a huge sum of money. Although the mother and daughter had handled a lot of silver during this period, the huge visual impact of seeing these twenty ingots of silver at once made them both a little overwhelmed.

"Brother Shi, even if we buy a yard and jade, we won't need so much!"

"Yes, Dad, our yard is only worth a dozen taels, and the jade is only worth a dozen taels, twenty taels will be enough."

Jiang Linger and Zhao Yan had never seen such a scene before, so they quickly spoke up.

"Keep it!"

"Men are responsible for making money, as for saving and spending money, that is women's job!"

"Besides, doesn't Yan'er want to practice martial arts? Poor in literature, rich in martial arts. Once you start practicing martial arts, you will need precious medicinal herbs to nourish yourself and take medicinal baths, so that there will be no hidden dangers!"

"This money cannot be saved at all!"

"Ling'er, Yan'er, you must remember that things that can be solved with money are never a problem. Don't let yourself get hurt just to save a little money!"

"When it comes to money, you should have the courage to say 'If you spend all your money, you can get it back again!'"

"Money is always a tool for our family to use!"

Zhao Shi patiently explained to the mother and daughter.

Maybe Zhao Shi would be short of money in his own world, but in the other world, with the entire Blue Star world as his backing, money would never be as important as people.

"Ok!"

"Uh-huh"

The mother and daughter looked at the heroic Zhao Shi with admiration in their eyes, especially the words "even if I spend all my money, I can get it back" which made Zhao Shi even more glorious.

Although the two agreed, they were not slow in collecting the silver.

no way!
Having said that, as long as people are alive, they can never live without money. They have seen too many cases of people selling their children for a few cents or a few pounds of food.

Bones are exposed in the wild, and no roosters crow for thousands of miles.
Here, it is not just a sentence, but it really exists.

In fact, in their opinion, their men (fathers) have never experienced the sufferings of the world and do not know that a penny can sometimes suffocate a person to death.

The two men took the silver back to the bedroom and looked around carefully. Seeing that no one was paying attention, they moved the table away, revealing a piece of ground missing bluestone. The two men dug up the soil and revealed a wooden box.

This is where the family hides their money, but the box is now empty because three generations of family savings of several decades have been squandered on the purchase of incense to pray to the gods.

However, it was all worth it when the spirit of Zhao Shi’s ancestors appeared.

After the two men put the silver into the box, they covered it with soil again and moved the table back to its original position.

After putting the money down, the two realized that they had actually left Zhao Shi alone in the ancestral hall.

"Mom, go see daddy. I'm going to wash up!"

Zhao Yaner said.

It was too early today, and before they had time to wash up, Zhao Shi was summoned out by Bao Ye.

"Hidden?"

As soon as Jiang Linger entered the ancestral hall, she saw Zhao Shi looking at her with a smile on his face and asked.

Swish! Jiang Linger's face turned red all of a sudden.

She felt a little embarrassed that her petty side was seen by her husband.

"Hubby, you won't blame me for being petty, will you?"

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Linger asked shyly.

"No, my husband likes my wife no matter what she does!" Zhao Shi said in a daze, looking at his wife who had a red face and looked embarrassed.

Swish!
Jiang Linger's face turned red again.

This time it wasn't shyness;

It reminded her of the straightforward love words her man said to her on their wedding night, as well as the embarrassing words he said while he was busy.

Hearing it again now, I feel like my whole body is melting.

"Brother Shi." Jiang Linger called out timidly.

The call of "Brother Shi" made Zhao Shi's heart tremble.

A natural, unmodified beauty with a mature charm looked at him shyly. How could Zhao Shi, who had not eaten meat for nearly twenty years, resist?

However, when he took two steps forward and was about to hug his wife, he passed through.

Why.
In the end, Zhao Shi was left with only a sigh.

Jiang Linger naturally felt Zhao Shi’s emotions.

She wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know what to say.

What's more, she is already very satisfied with her current life. Even if her man can be seen but not touched, she is already surprised that he can come back.

She even thought her man was interesting. She had never heard that the ancestor spirit could have some impulses.

It's like a living person.

It was indeed so. If one only looked at him without touching him, one would not be able to tell that her man was dead and was now a summoned spirit.

"Ling'er, come on, take the incense and go for a walk outside!" Zhao Shi took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said to his wife.

"Ok!"

Ling'er nodded slightly, holding the incense burner, and walked out of the ancestral hall side by side with Zhao Shi.

The yard has become quiet.

Those who should leave have already left, and Bao Ye also went to look for a house nearby.

There were only three of them left at home.

Woo. Woo.
Zhao Yan'er, who was brushing her teeth in the yard, couldn't help but greet her parents when she saw them.

Where is Zhao Shi?
He just stood there in a daze, looking at his daughter brushing her teeth.

toothbrush!

My daughter is actually brushing her teeth with a toothbrush.

this.
"Yan'er, where did you get this toothbrush?" Zhao Shi couldn't help but feel surprised when he saw a toothbrush in this strange world.

You know, when he came here, people here still rinsed their mouths with water. The more particular ones would use some large salt particles or willow twigs to stir them in their mouths.

"Brother Shi, have you forgotten? This is what you brought me back then. You gave me one and kept one as a spare. After Yan'er was born, you gave it to her. Unfortunately, the soft hair on it has fallen off."

Hearing Zhao Shi's question, Jiang Linger said from the side.

It was then that Zhao Shi remembered that his luggage was left on the side of the road, and he only had a small bag of toiletries, including a toothbrush.

There were four toothbrushes in a pack, but he only used one. Seeing that his wife had difficulty washing and would bleed from her mouth if she was not careful, he left two toothbrushes for her.

But, is it true that you can only use one toothbrush until now?

"what!!"

When his daughter took the toothbrush out of her mouth, Zhao Shi couldn't help but exclaim.

Without it!

So miserable.

The toothbrush handle is good, but there are only a few soft bristles left. My daughter wrapped a few pieces of rags around the toothbrush head and used it as a toothbrush head. Every time after brushing her teeth, she needs to wring out the water in the cotton bag and then put it outside to dry, otherwise it will become moldy and smelly in a few days.

"Unfortunately, the toothpaste was gone after only a few months of use after you left."

"The toothpaste is really good, it smells nice and has a little bit of sweetness. Every time I finish brushing my teeth, my breath smells nice."

Jiang Linger didn't find anything strange about the appearance of her daughter's toothbrush, and the same went for her. This solution was hers.

Throw it away?
How can it be!

Not to mention that this is something left by my husband, the fine workmanship of this toothbrush is enough to make people amazed. When I use the toothbrush at home, I feel very proud when I see others still using willow twigs.

When she talked about toothbrushes, she thought of toothpaste.

After using it, it feels like a layer of grease is scraped off your mouth, and it feels light and refreshing.
A hint of longing also appeared on Zhao Yan'er's face.

She had only heard her mother talk about toothpaste, but had never used it. Since she was a child, she had been using salt grains. Of course, unlike other families, her family used fine salt. Not only for brushing teeth, but also for cooking, they put fine salt in every dish. They did not allow coarse salt, and their family has maintained this tradition to this day.

Everyone who has seen them says that they are spendthrifts.

Ordinary poor people would not bother to brush their teeth or rinse their mouths. Only the rich would use salt to brush their teeth, and it would be coarse salt.

Only big families would use fine salt or green salt.

Although her family did not use green salt, it was also high-quality fine salt.

Zhao Yan also asked Jiang Ling when she was a child.

But her mother told her that this was her father's request.

Jiang Linger was very glad that she listened to her husband's arrangement. Others at her age would have lost all their teeth, but she could even chew bones.

Yan'er too.

Now he has a neat set of white teeth, which makes all his childhood friends envious.
