At the end of her aunt's story in “the story-teller," the older girl asks whether the girl in the story would have been rescued even if she had not been good. what does she seem to think is the theme of her aunt's story? what detail in the aunt's story leads her to think so?

Goodness, contention, and wisdom are what she seem to think is the theme of her aunt's story. You can consider this line from the story as a detail to support it: "finally saved from a mad bull by a number of rescuers who admired her moral character." Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
