Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

"Auntie, please spare my life. I won't dare to do it again." Dongzi begged for mercy in a low voice, but there was undisguised hatred in his eyes.

"Ah."

Ye Chuyi sneered, let go of the hand that was restraining him, and when he was about to make the next move, he kicked him directly in the lower body.

Snow-white flour was flying all over the sky, and Dongzi was rolling on the ground, holding his crotch in unbearable pain.

She has seen many tricks like this, and she still wants to trick her.

Perhaps he had seen enough of the excitement and was afraid that it would not end if it continued, so the shopkeeper came out from the back with a smile on his face, "This little girl is really well raised."

Ye Chuyi was not at all impressed by his idealistic praise and simply pulled Yaya to stand behind him.

"I thought the shopkeeper was not here. Why did he come out just now?"

The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly, feeling that this girl was a little different from when he met her in the morning.

"Look at this guy of mine. He's really stupid. He actually made the girl unhappy. I will definitely teach him a lesson."

Ye Chuyi didn't care about his hypocritical flattery at all. If there wasn't only this one grain shop in this huge county town, she would not have been willing to come.

"I want to buy food."

"I wonder what kind of food the young lady wants to buy?" The shopkeeper was unsure of this man's identity for a moment. He did not dare to offend him easily, but he did not want to suffer in vain, so he secretly gestured to the outside.

Ye Chuyi naturally saw his little action. If it was before noon, she would still care about it, but now, she already had an ID card, so she simply pretended not to see it.

"I want every kind of food in the store, and have him show me each one."

Ye Chuyi glanced at the person on the ground, then held Yaya and sat directly on the food bag next to him.

People outside the door who were buying food neither came in nor left, they just waited to watch the fun.

"Dongzi, why don't you hurry up and get something for the girl?" The shopkeeper kicked the man who was curled up in a ball, looking very disappointed in him.

Once he figures out this man's background, he will definitely avenge himself for this humiliation. What damn bad luck.

"And you, I'm thirsty." Ye Chuyi pointed at the shopkeeper who wanted to leave, not wanting to let him go.

This girl is not a good person either. Don't think she doesn't know what this old guy is thinking. He just wants to settle the score in the future. Bah.

The shopkeeper's face froze for a while before he adjusted his expression. "Miss: I don't know how many pounds of food you want. Our shop is small, so I don't know the price."

"Are you afraid that I won't pay you?"

Ye Chuyi chuckled, slowly took out a banknote and waved it in front of him, "Since I am happy to serve you, these are naturally yours."

There was a flash of surprise in the shopkeeper's eyes. In the morning, this man only had some small change, so why was he using silver notes now?

"Boss, I'm thirsty. Don't you have any water? Or is it that guests can't ask for a bowl of water?"

Ye Chuyi didn't care what he was thinking, he just repeated what he said.

The shopkeeper turned around and wanted to call Dongzi, but saw him scooping flour from the flour jar with an angry look on his face. He could only reluctantly go and pour water himself.

"My little aunt is so awesome." Yaya showed her rosy little face and rubbed her aunt's neck affectionately.

The little aunt is the most annoying person she has ever met!

"Yaya, are you scared?" Ye Chuyi gently tapped her nose.

"Yaya is not afraid of breaking the silver." She shook her little head and imitated her aunt, stretching out her little hands to hit the air.

"Yaya is such an amazing little girl."

Ye Chuyi praised the child generously, saying that the child was really adorable, but a little too thin, and he would definitely take good care of him in the future.

The water brought by the shopkeeper was just ordinary water. Ye Chuyi did not dislike it and fed it to Yaya gently. She was not afraid that the shopkeeper would drug her. With so many people watching, she thought he would not dare to do so.

Dongzi came over with a cloth bag in his hand, grinning, and lowered his head without saying a word.

But his clenched fists still betrayed his unwillingness.

"The official is here, everyone please make way, make way."

There was a noise outside the door, and soon a team of seven or eight yamen runners lined up in an orderly manner and stood in front of the grain shop.

The leader was not Li Laihu, whom Ye Chuyi did not know.

"Whoever is causing trouble in the grain shop, come out quickly!" the bailiff shouted coldly and stood at the door of the grain shop, staring inside.

Ye Chuyi continued to feed Yaya tea. She wasn't making any trouble anyway, so he was definitely not talking about her.

The shopkeeper was so dumbfounded that he could only greet her with a smile on his face, "Excuse me, sir. No one is causing trouble. It's just that the shop assistant was ignorant and got beaten by this girl."

Dongzi walked over very tactfully, and before he reached the bailiff, he prostrated himself on the ground, and his dirty hands almost fell on the bailiff.

"do what!"

The bailiff glared at him and took a step back, his eyes full of warning.

"Sir, don't be angry. This is just a shop assistant. He was beaten so hard that he couldn't stand. I didn't mean to be disrespectful to you."

Ye Chuyi couldn't help but sneer as he watched the shopkeeper's performance. He really thought that she couldn't understand the hidden meaning behind his words.

"Who is it?" The yamen runner looked at her, his expression getting colder. "You are dissatisfied with the yamen, but you dare to be so disrespectful."

Hearing Ye Chuyi being scolded, Dongzi excitedly stood up and knelt in front of the yamen runner, crying and screaming.

"Sir, it was she who caused the trouble. She was a lowly person who stole the clothes from somewhere and brought a fake ID card to the shop to cause trouble. She even beat me up badly. You must stand up for me."

The bailiff looked at her with disgust, then turned his gaze back to Ye Chuyi, with a look of intense scrutiny, "You forged your ID badge?"

"I never said that."

Ye Chuyi glanced at him indifferently, with no intention of standing up.

"You are so bold. You don't respect the officials. You should be sent to prison."

Ye Chuyi looked in the direction of the voice and easily recognized that this was the person who had just gone to report the news.

"Do you know whether I am bold or not?"

Ye Chuyi stared at him with a fake smile, and didn't stop until he was scared. "Or do you just want to see how bold I am?"

"Look, sir, this ignorant girl deserves to be beaten!" Seeing that she couldn't win the argument, the man turned to the yamen runner and complained to her in a flattering manner.

After being ignored repeatedly, the yamen runner felt embarrassed and simply agreed with what he said.

"Come here, take him back for interrogation."

The shopkeeper stood by without saying a word, until this moment he smiled faintly, "Thank you for bothering me to come all the way here, sir."

"Let's see who dares to arrest me." Looking at the approaching bailiff, Ye Chuyi smiled instead of getting angry.

This is truly a rare drama, and I almost got into trouble.

"This man actually dared to threaten the official. He simply doesn't want to live anymore."

"It is really unethical for a girl to not have the slightest bit of virtuousness and gentleness."

Perhaps they felt that they had understood the truth of the matter, so a few people who had come to watch the fun also began to speak out, loudly and without reservation.

Someone took advantage of Ye Chuyi's inattention to grab the little girl. Yaya screamed in pain and tears instantly wet her eyes.

The man wanted to continue tearing, but he felt his legs go limp and was kicked to the ground.

"You don't ask right or wrong, you really have no respect for the law."

Ye Chuyi shouted coldly and raised her ID card, "Open your eyes and see who I am."

When the yamen runner who was nearby saw the words clearly, he immediately stepped aside in fear.

"County, county magistrate."
