Chapter 222: Hard praise
Han Yiyi finally felt relieved when she heard Aunt Zhang say this.
The next morning, before the hour of Mao, a long queue formed in front of the Jianzhen Mansion.
Because they had their household registration in the Jianzhen Mansion, they didn't have to worry about people buying too much. When the people in Zhushan Village learned about the sweet potato sales, the families in several nearby villages who also grew sweet potatoes started selling them together.
In this way, the villages under Ping'an Town have temporarily solved their food problem. As for places farther away, Han Yiyi is powerless to do anything.
Shopkeeper Tong looked at the nearly two or three hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes, some eggs and rice that Han Yiyi and Yun Xiao had brought him, and he almost knelt down in front of them.
The sweet potatoes naturally belonged to Han Yi's family, and as for the rice and eggs, they were exchanged by Han Yi using the last bit of points in the system. Of course, these things were also used by Han Yi for Wang Yan'er to replenish her body after giving birth.
Since the flood, Yunlai Restaurant has not been open for business and was later taken over by government officials. Manager Tong was completely unemployed. Since he was unemployed, Wang Xiaojiang was naturally unemployed as well.
Although Manager Tong had saved some money over the years, he couldn't even buy food with the money now.
In fact, some wealthy families still have some grain in stock, but because Emperor Beichen has cracked down on those who maliciously raise grain prices, they dare not sell it at high prices, but they are unwilling to lower the price, so they keep it in their own hands.
"Thank you, big sister, thank you, young master..."
Hearing that Shopkeeper Tong still called him Young Master, Yun Xiao's eyes flashed and he said, "Now that there is no Yunlai Restaurant anymore, don't call me Young Master. Just call me Yun Xiao!"
Although Yun Xiao had a smile on his face when he said this, there was obvious disappointment in his voice.
"No, in my heart, you will always be the young master of Tong Jie!"
After Shopkeeper Tong finished speaking, Han Yiyi saw that Yun Xiao was about to speak, so he spoke first.
"It doesn't matter what you call him, it's just a title. Besides, if you open another restaurant in the future, you can recruit Manager Tong to be the manager. Then you will still be his young master!"
Hearing Han Yiyi say this, Yun Xiao suddenly turned his head and looked at her, his eyes full of complicated emotions.
Han Yiyi naturally knew what Yun Xiao was thinking, but facing the look in Yun Xiao's eyes, she just smiled slightly.
At this moment, the sound of a baby crying suddenly reached the ears of several people.
When Han Yiyi heard the voice, she couldn't help but smile and said to the two of them.
"You guys chat first, I'm going to go see this little guy," he said and walked into the room.
Yun Xiao looked at Han Yiyi's back and thought of what she had just said, and couldn't help but stare blankly.
Upon seeing this, Shopkeeper Tong raised his hand and waved it in front of him.
"Come back to your senses, Young Master. I'm not saying anything harsh on you, but my child is already a month old, and why does it seem like there's still no progress on your side?"
Seeing the hand waving in front of him, he slapped it and then spoke in a bad mood.
"If you don't want this rotten mouth of yours anymore, you can donate it, so you can save some food."
When Shopkeeper Tong saw Yun Xiao’s angry face, he couldn’t help but curl his lips and thought to himself, I’m just worried about you!
At this moment in the room, Han Yiyi was looking at a pair of soft little people, and her heart was melted by their cuteness.
Wang Yan'er actually gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, which made Manager Tong very happy. Of course, he was also scared at first.
Because Wang Yan'er's health was not good to begin with, it took a long time for her to get better. After she became pregnant, Manager Tong was worried that Wang Yan'er would follow in his ex-wife's footsteps, so he became extremely nervous and stayed by her side almost every day.
Even before, when he went to work at Yunlai Restaurant every day, he would go back to check every hour.
But the more you worry, the more likely it is to happen. After the flood, refugees actually broke into her house. Wang Yaner fell down and although her life was not in danger, she had a miscarriage and had to lie in bed to rest.
Because she had a miscarriage before and she was carrying twins, the delivery was a little difficult. Seeing basins of blood flowing out of the delivery room, Manager Tong was so scared that he knelt down on the ground, kowtowing and worshiping to the sky.
Fortunately, both mother and child were safe in the end, but after this ordeal, Wang Yaner's body became so exhausted that she could no longer give birth.
When Shopkeeper Tong heard the doctor say this, he hurriedly said, "No more children, no more children, never again..."
Because of this, he didn't dare touch Wang Yan'er for a long time afterwards, for fear that she would get pregnant again. But later he couldn't bear to let Wang Yan'er be a widow, so he went to see a doctor and got a contraceptive prescription for himself. Of course, this is all a story for later.
At this time, Wang Yan'er looked at the two little people in front of her with a happy smile on her face. When she looked at Han Yiyi, her eyes were full of gratitude.
She knew that if Han Yiyi hadn't been there, the grass on her grave might have been very tall, and she wouldn't have had the happy life she has today, so she smiled and said.
"Sister Yiyi, Brother Tong and I have agreed that you will help choose the names of the two children!"
When Han Yiyi heard Wang Yaner say this, she quickly refused.
"No, no, that's not possible. I can give them names!" Han Yiyi knew that naming in ancient times required many details, and she didn't dare to give people names casually.
"Sister Yiyi, don't refuse. You are the benefactor of our Yun family. It would be most appropriate for you to name the child," said Wang Yaner.
"Yes, Miss Han, please help us choose a name!" At this time, the Queen Mother also walked in from outside the house, looked at Han Yiyi with gratitude, and agreed.
Seeing that they were so persistent, Han Yiyi couldn't refuse anymore and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try. But the name I come up with may not be good, so please don't dislike it!"
"No, no, Sister Yiyi, the name you choose must be very nice!" Wang Yaner said hurriedly when she saw Han Yiyi agreed.
Han Yiyi thought about it and said, "Let's name the boy Tongru and the girl Tongyi!" She hoped that both children would be happy in the future.
"Tongru and Tongyi, these two names are nice to hear and have good meanings. Sister Yiyi, you are so awesome!" Wang Yaner said.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother on the side also said, "Yes, this is a very good name. With such a capable person like Miss Han giving them such a name, I think everything will go well for them in the future."
Han Yiyi: ...Well, actually there is no need to praise it.
