When Yi Yami opened her shop the next day, she was overjoyed to hear some customers discussing the news that Bai's dental clinic had been destroyed.
She waved her hand and said to the guests, "The boss is in a good mood today! 9.5% off all orders!"
When the guests heard it, they raised their arms and shouted "Great!"
There was nothing to be happy about for them when other people in distress were rescued, but being able to get a discount in Yiji was a real benefit to them.
Yi Yami walked to the cashier and said to Xinxin, "You can keep track of how much you spent. The money you lost will be charged from our account when we divide the bill tonight."
Xinxin nodded.
Yao Wenyuan, dressed in plain clothes, came to Yiji and said to Yi Yami, "Boss, shopkeeper! Give me a private room."
Yi Yami recognized him and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Yao Wenyuan's eyes.
Yi Yami understood immediately and replied, "Okay, sir, please go to the third floor."
Yao Wenyuan went up to the third floor, and Yi Yami came up with a plate of mixed dishes, half a chopped braised duck, and a bowl of white porridge.
"What a rare guest! Why is County Magistrate Yao visiting my home?" Yiyami placed the dishes in her hand in front of him one by one.
"Aren't you here to thank that kind-hearted person who didn't want to reveal his name?" Yao Wenyuan looked at her with a smile.
Yi Yami's eyes widened, "How did you know it was me?"
"It's not difficult to check. The postman told me that the person who delivered the letter to him was a black-haired boy with big eyes and dark skin, but he was not common and didn't look like the kids in town. When I just walked in, I saw that boy serving tea and water. Doesn't that make sense? Add to that the description in your letter of the Bai's Dental Shop and the comparison with several other dental shops. I asked the bosses of other dental shops and found that among the people who came to inquire about the population recently, you were the only one who didn't make a deal. And I asked the boss of the Bai's Dental Shop, who has done business with him recently? It's obvious from the comparison that it's you." Yao Wenyuan scooped a mouthful of white porridge and prepared to put it in his mouth.
"Oh, then do I have any prize?" Yiyami asked with a smile.
"You are really smart. You adapt to the situation and take advantage of opportunities!" Yao Wenyuan praised her, drank the porridge and ate a piece of braised meat, and his eyes became brighter.
"I do have something I want to give you as a reward." Yao Wenyuan put down his chopsticks and spoon reluctantly.
Yi Yami sat down and listened to him.
"Among those people abducted or deceived by Shirakawa Jing, most of the men, elderly men, women and a small number of young girls can go home. But there are still five or six adult women who cannot go home, or women who are close to adulthood who cannot go home. Some of them don't want to go home, and some can't go back. There are also three or four who are from the same family. They are fleeing here and have nowhere to go." Yao Wenyuan said tactfully.
When Yi Yami heard this, she understood.
"Okay, I understand. Come here for me, I'm short of people." Yiyami raised the corners of her mouth and smiled sweetly.
Yao Wenyuan carefully looked at the girl in front of him. She smiled brightly and seemed to be emitting a faint glow from her whole body.
"I don't have to pay, right?" Yi Yami asked the next second.
"No, no, you've helped me solve the problem, why do I need you to pay me? I didn't even give you a reward for tipping you off, let alone asking you to pay me." Yao Wenyuan waved his hands repeatedly.
"Thank you very much, sir!" Yi Yami put away the wooden tray. "Enjoy your meal, sir. If you need anything else, just call He Miao at the door."
Yi Yami prepared to leave.
Yao Wenyuan asked, "When should I send them here?"
Yi Yami rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "The sooner the better. It would be fine if it can be delivered tonight."
Yao Wenyuan was waiting for her to say this and said "yes" excitedly.
Yi Yami stepped out and walked downstairs happily.
Before leaving, he did not forget to tell He Miao not to accept the money from the customer inside.
But our County Magistrate Yao was not the kind of person who would eat for free. He knew that Yi Yami would definitely not accept his money, so he put the silver money under the bowl and left.
That night, a carriage stopped in front of Yiyami's shop.
Yao Wenyuan first got out of the car and talked to Yi Yami for a few words.
Then several women, wrapped tightly with their heads and faces covered, got off the carriage. The last to get off were three or four people who looked like they were from the same family.
They quickly slipped into the store, and Yiyami asked someone to quickly close the door.
No one saw the whole process. Yao Wenyuan got back on the carriage and left as if nothing had happened.
Only then did the women in the store take off their hats and veils.
Yi Yami took a look and found that each of them was beautiful and had their own merits, except that they all had a lot of bruises on their arms.
The Yi family members were also in the hall, which was really heartbreaking to see.
"Have you eaten?" Yiyami asked.
"Eat, eat..." they responded in a low voice.
The rumbling sound of their stomachs betrayed them, and their faces flushed.
"If you've eaten, you've eaten. If you haven't eaten, you haven't eaten. There's nothing to be embarrassed about." Yi Yami corrected them, and the next second she turned around and instructed others, "Xinxin, Tiantian, and Feifei, bring the rice over. Bring that dish as well. Let these people eat their fill first."
When the food arrived, several people were hesitant to pick up their chopsticks. Yi Yami urged them, "What's wrong? Eat quickly, or it will get cold."
It would have been fine if they hadn't urged me, but once I did, several girls started crying.
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay." Yiyami patted the girl closest to him, and others also came forward to comfort her.
After everyone had a full meal, Yiyami asked Wuwa to clear away the bowls and chopsticks.
"Please introduce yourselves." Yiyami said gently.
