The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.

(Thanks to Boss Wuqu°o_ for the amazing gift!)

Chen Lei put the two buckets of dish soap into the cart, and then took the bag of laundry detergent. "This is laundry detergent, specially for washing fabrics and clothes."

When washing clothes, take this small spoon, scoop some into the water, and wait for the powder to dissolve before washing the clothes. The clothes will come out clean and have a light fragrance.

Wow!

Ya Ya's eyes widened in surprise.

No wonder almost everyone here smells so good; they use fragrant powder to wash their clothes!

"This bag weighs ten pounds. I gave you two big bags, which should last you a while. Just come back and buy more when you run out. Remember to use separate cleaning products, and don't use sulfur soap so often anymore. Using it two or three times a week is enough."

Ya Ya listened attentively, nodding her little head as she firmly memorized these new facts.

Finally, Chen Lei put the family-sized Safeguard soap into the trolley: "This is a soap that can be used for bathing and washing hands. It's gentler than sulfur soap, and it won't hurt your skin even if you wash with it every day."

As Ya Ya watched the shopkeeper put everything inside, she quickly pointed to a stack of stainless steel bowls in her small basket: "Shopkeeper, here are these too, let's pay for them together."

Chen Lei casually put the pile of bowls into the cart: "Dish soap is three yuan a bucket, two buckets for six yuan. Laundry detergent is eight yuan a bag, two bags for sixteen yuan. A box of soap has six bars in it... I'll charge you fifty yuan in total."

This huge bottle of dish soap only costs three yuan. I'll take it back to the village later and see who can bear to use it. It's so cheap!

Ya Ya's eyes curved into two tiny crescent moons as she smiled.

And the laundry detergent and soap smell wonderful after washing.

From now on, the people of Lotus Village will use these to wash clothes and dishes. The villagers will be able to stay clean and smell fragrant, just like here, and everyone will walk around smelling sweet!

After buying her things, a satisfied Ya Ya pushed her stroller and said goodbye to the shopkeeper. Chen Lei thoughtfully helped her put the stroller on a flat surface before turning around and walking back into the shop.

Ya Ya skillfully used the cart lid as cover to move heavy items into the space, making the cart feel light and airy.

It was getting late, and the little purse was slightly warm. Ya Ya chose a corner to return to the village.

Leaving the empty stroller inside, Ya Ya ran to the yard, holding up the five hair ties on her hands.

"Grandma, please use this to tie my hair."

Grandma Liu could tell from Ya Ya's appearance that she had just returned from there; her slender little wrists were covered with layers of colorful fabric.

Ya Ya was already standing in front of Grandma Liu, with the back of her head facing away. "Grandma, use this hair tie I have, I want to change my hairstyle!"

Grandma Liu found it amusing to see the little guy's enthusiastic expression. "Aren't your two little braids adorable enough? Why do you want a different hairstyle?"

"Sister He Miao uses this to tie her hair, it looks so pretty! Grandma helped me gather my hair into a bunch and coil it into a round ball." Ya Ya gestured with her little hand, looking expectant. "She used this green hair tie with little red berries to tie it up."

Grandma Liu gently took the large hair tie from Ya Ya's hand. The fabric was soft and elastic, and it was quite big.

Looking at Ya Ya's thin, sparse hair, I felt troubled.

The little guy's hair is too thin and soft to make a full bun.

She took apart Ya Ya's little braids and tried to gather them into a small, thin bunch. She gestured and wrapped the hair tie around Ya Ya's small bunch of hair again and again, barely managing to hold the hair tie in place.

"alright."

Ya Ya couldn't see the back of her head, so she assumed it was already tied up beautifully. She ran to the large mirror under the eaves, tilted her head left and right to look at herself. She couldn't see the ball, but she could see the green hair tie.

It's still very pretty!

After showing off her hair, Ya Ya ran to Ji Chun Tao, who was reading a book nearby, and boldly held out her little hand, revealing four hair ties on it: "Aunt Chun Tao, you pick one too!"

Ji Chuntao was taken aback for a moment, then quickly waved her hand to decline, saying, "How could I possibly need something so beautiful? I'm busy working by the stove all day, I don't need such delicate items. It would be a waste if they got ruined by the cooking fumes."

"It'll come in handy!" Ya Ya earnestly persuaded, "Auntie has to tie her hair up every day, this is both pretty and convenient!"

"Chuntao, pick one. Young girls should wear something bright and cheerful," Granny Liu chimed in, urging her.

Ji Chuntao couldn't resist, so she pursed her lips and picked the light denim blue one. She tried hard to suppress the smirk, but her eyes were bright.

She took off her hairpin, which was actually just a small, fairly smooth wooden stick.

Then I wrapped my hair around twice and secured it with a hair tie.

"Auntie is so beautiful!" King Ya Ya was very satisfied. After giving away this one, there was another one.

Ya Ya toddled along with her short legs to find Sister Xinghua, who was sitting not far away with Grandpa Wang weaving baskets.

"Sister Xinghua, you pick one too!" Yaya stretched out her little hand, and the bright color caught Xinghua's eye.

Especially that pale purple one, made of thin, light gauze, hazy and soft, shimmering faintly in the light. She touched it lightly with her fingertips. "This fabric is so light and airy, it must be very expensive. I've heard that in the capital there's a fabric called 'Light Glow Silk,' as light and thin as mist, a single bolt of which is worth dozens of bushels of rice, and only the extremely wealthy can afford it..."

"These aren't expensive!" Ya Ya explained with a smile, "I bought them at the two-dollar store, two dollars each!"

Xinghua had heard about the strange prices in that magical place over the past two days, but when she actually saw the goods in front of her, she still couldn't help but be shocked. This material, which would be considered superior to others in their area, was not even worth as much as a bunch of grass.

"Sister Xinghua, hurry up and give me one, Yaya can't hold it up anymore."

Xinghua then hurriedly reached out and took the outermost purple one.

He then massaged Ya Ya's wrists again.

After supervising Sister Xinghua to tie her hair up, Ya Ya climbed onto the chair next to the big table, clapped her little hands, and without her saying a word, everyone had already gathered around her.

Ya Ya placed the dish soap, laundry detergent, and bar soap that she had stored in her space onto the table.

It's like a magic trick.

Ya Ya has never tried to hide it. Everyone in the village has seen Ya Ya's new skills and is used to it. Only Xing Hua and Da Niu are dumbfounded.

Goodness gracious, Little Sprout's destiny is extraordinary; her abilities are like those of an immortal!

Ya Ya stretched out her little hand and patted the yellow dish soap bottle, then earnestly introduced it to everyone: "This is dish soap, specially used to wash dishes and remove grease. You only need to squeeze out a little bit, and this big bottle costs three yuan."

"From now on, everyone will use this to wash dishes. The store manager said that sulfur soap shouldn't be used too often, as it can damage your hands and skin."

After saying that, she pointed to a large purple bag next to her, "This is laundry detergent, it makes clothes smell nice."

Ya Ya turned to look at Da Niu beside her, "Brother Da Niu, help me unscrew this little cap."

Da Niu stared at this unusual thing, his fingers gripping the lid. Should he unscrew it? He tried, and with a slight click, the lid came loose. After a few more turns, the small white lid fell off.

A faint floral fragrance slowly wafted out from the unscrewed opening, sweet and pleasant.

Ya Ya pulled out a small white spoon. "The shopkeeper said that you should pour just a small spoonful of laundry detergent into the water, dissolve it, and then you can wash your clothes."

"Wow, they have special containers for washing everything, they're so particular."

"What's that scent? It smells amazing!"
