Han Yiyi was finally relieved after hearing Aunt Zhang say that.
The next morning, before dawn, a long queue had already formed at the gate of the town government.
Because the town government has a household registration system, there is no concern about people buying too much. When the people of Zhushan Village started selling sweet potatoes, several other villages near Zhushan Village, who had previously grown them together, also started selling sweet potatoes.
In this way, the villages under Ping'an Town have solved their food problem for the time being, but Han Yiyi is powerless to help the more distant places.
When Manager Tong looked at the two or three hundred pounds of sweet potatoes, along with some eggs and rice that Han Yiyi and Yun Xiao had brought him, he almost knelt down before them.
The sweet potatoes naturally belonged to Han Yi's family. As for the rice and eggs, Han Yi used the last of her system points to exchange for them. Of course, these were also things Han Yi used to help Wang Yan'er recover after giving birth.
Since the flood, Yunlai Restaurant has not been open for business. Later, it was taken over by the government, and Manager Tong was completely unemployed. Since he was unemployed, Wang Xiaojiang naturally lost his job as well.
Although Manager Tong had saved up some silver over the years, it was now so much that even with silver, he couldn't buy grain.
In fact, some wealthy households still had some grain stored up, but because Emperor Beichen was cracking down on those who maliciously raised grain prices, they dared not sell it at high prices, but were unwilling to lower prices, so they kept it all in their own hands.
"Thank you, young lady, thank you, young master..."
Hearing Manager Tong still call him Young Master, Yun Xiao's eyes flickered, and he said, "Now that Yunlai Restaurant no longer exists, please don't call me Young Master anymore, just call me Yun Xiao!"
Although Yun Xiao was smiling when he said this, there was a clear sense of disappointment in his voice.
"No, in my heart, you will always be my young master, Tong Jie!"
As soon as Manager Tong finished speaking, Han Yiyi saw that Yun Xiao was about to speak again, so she spoke first.
"It doesn't matter what you call him, it's just a title. Besides, if you open another restaurant later and hire Manager Tong to be your manager, you'll still be his young master!"
Upon hearing Han Yiyi's words, Yun Xiao abruptly turned to look at her, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
Han Yiyi naturally knew what Yun Xiao was thinking, but when faced with Yun Xiao's gaze, she only smiled slightly.
Suddenly, the sound of a baby crying reached their ears.
Upon hearing this voice, Han Yiyi couldn't help but smile and said to the two of them.
"You guys keep chatting, I'm going to check on this little guy," she said, and walked into the room.
As Yun Xiao watched Han Yiyi's retreating figure, recalling what she had just said, he fell into a daze.
Upon seeing this, Manager Tong couldn't help but wave his hand in front of him.
"Snap out of it, young master. It's not that I'm criticizing you, but my child is already a month old, and it seems like you haven't made any progress at all!"
Seeing the hand waving in front of him, he slapped it down and said in an annoyed tone.
"If you don't want this mouth of yours anymore, you can donate it, that way you can save some food."
Seeing Yun Xiao's angry face, Manager Tong couldn't help but purse his lips and think to himself, "I'm just worried for you!"
Inside the room, Han Yiyi looked at the two cuddly little figures and was completely melted by their cuteness.
Wang Yan'er gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, which delighted Manager Tong, though it also frightened him at first.
Because Wang Yan'er's health was not good to begin with, it took herbal medicine to regulate her condition for a long time before she got better. After she became pregnant, Manager Tong was worried that Wang Yan'er would follow in his ex-wife's footsteps, so he was extremely nervous and stayed by her side almost every day.
Even when he went to work at Yunlai Restaurant every day, he would go back to check on things every hour.
But what she feared most came to pass. After the flood, refugees broke into her home, and Wang Yan'er fell as a result. Although she was not in mortal danger, she was still pregnant and had to stay in bed to rest.
Because of the previous miscarriage and the fact that she was carrying twins, the delivery was difficult. Seeing basins of blood flowing out of the delivery room, Manager Tong was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed to the heavens.
Fortunately, both mother and child were safe in the end, but after this ordeal, Wang Yan'er's body was too weak to give birth again.
Upon hearing the doctor's words, Manager Tong hurriedly said, "I won't have any more children, I won't have any more in the future..."
For a long time afterward, he dared not touch Wang Yan'er again, fearing that she might get pregnant again. However, he couldn't bear to let Wang Yan'er live a life of widowhood, so he went to find a doctor and got a prescription for contraception to drink himself. Of course, that's another story.
At this moment, Wang Yan'er looked at the two little people in front of her with a happy smile on her face, and when she looked at Han Yiyi, her eyes were full of gratitude.
She knew that if it weren't for Han Yiyi, perhaps the grass on her grave would be growing tall by now, and she wouldn't have the happy life she has now, so she smiled and said.
"Sister Yi, Brother Tong and I have discussed it and decided that you can help us choose the names for the two children!"
Upon hearing Wang Yan'er's words, Han Yi quickly refused.
"No, no, that won't do! I can name them!" Han Yiyi knew that there were many rules and regulations for naming in ancient times, and she dared not name people casually.
“Sister Yi, please don’t refuse. You are a benefactor to our Yun family. It would be most appropriate for you to name the child,” Wang Yan’er said.
"Yes, Miss Han, please help us choose a name!" At this moment, the Queen Mother also walked in from outside, looking at Han Yi with gratitude and agreeing.
Seeing their insistence, Han Yiyi couldn't refuse any longer, so she said, "Alright then, I'll give it a try. But the name I choose might not be good, so please don't mind!"
"No, no, Sister Yi, the name you chose must be very nice!" Wang Yan'er said quickly when she saw Han Yiyi agree.
Han Yi thought for a moment before saying, "Let's name the boy Tongru and the girl Tongyi!" She hoped that everything would go well for the two children in the future.
“Tongru and Tongyi, these two names sound nice and have good meanings. Sister Yi, you’re amazing!” Wang Yan’er said.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother chimed in, "Yes, what a wonderful name! With someone as capable as Miss Han choosing such a name, they're sure to have everything go smoothly for them in the future."
Han Yiyi: ...Well, there's really no need to overpraise it.
