Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

Chapter 238 Preparing the dowry

As the wedding day approached, the Yun family was extremely busy. Yun Xi was not much better.

Everyone is preparing for the dowry.

Ying Tianchen had given a lot of betrothal gifts at the time. The betrothal gift list included six hundred kilograms of gold and one hundred thousand taels of silver.

There were also many other antiques, jade articles, calligraphy and paintings by famous people, hundreds of rolls of cloth and silk, and dozens of other sundry items.

Xi let Yunxi keep these things herself.

Now when preparing the dowry, the Yun family is racking their brains to prepare more dowry. But to be honest, their family property is all earned by Yun Xi herself, and Yun Xi is usually the housekeeper, so the family really doesn't have much money.

The whole family took great pains to prepare ten rolls of silk for Yunxi, two sets of property deeds for courtyard houses in the capital, and several sets of gold and silver jewelry.

"Xi'er, think about what else you need to buy. Dad and mom are useless, so we can only prepare this much."

Yun Xi didn't expect that her family would still worry about her dowry. In fact, she had her own plans.

"Mother, I have prepared all the dowry, but it has not been registered in the warehouse yet. Tomorrow you can take people and Nanny Lin to my warehouse to sort out the dowry."

Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that her daughter had not seemed anxious these days, she thought her daughter did not care about the dowry.

It's not easy to ask directly, after all, my daughter is in charge of the household, and I'm worried that if I ask her, she will think too much and think that I want to take the family property before she gets married.

So Xi could only ask Yun Huaiyuan and her three sons to pool money to prepare the dowry.

Fortunately, Yun Xi was usually generous and gave a lot of money to her family, so everyone had saved several thousand or even tens of thousands of taels.

In addition, the gifts given by the Mu family and other people were usually managed by Xi, so she had saved some things.

At night, Yun Xi released all the valuables in the space. The several rooms used as warehouses were filled to the brim.

Yunxi and Xi, along with their maids and servants, spent three days sorting out Yunxi's dowry.

She had to take all the betrothal gifts sent by Ying Tianchen back with her, and what she prepared herself were basically gold and silver.

Apart from these, she had nothing else of value.

Seeing that her daughter had so much money, Xi went to the brothel and bought her a lot of head coverings and other gold and silver jewelry.

With a wave of his hand, he bought more than twenty houses, shops and farms of various sizes.

After collecting a total of 120 loads of dowry, Xi was finally satisfied.

As for the things that were brought from Xue's house, Yun Xi took the opportunity to take out the gold and silver and passed away. As for the other valuables, Yun Xi planned to find an opportunity to sell them later.

I won’t use it anyway.

Yun Xi planned to hand over all the house deeds and land titles of the Xue family that were transferred to the Yun family through the government to his elder brother Yun Qi.

Yun Xi found her family and held a small meeting to divide up the family property.

Today, the soap workshops, paper mills and the Yunji cake shop in Qixinglou are all profitable businesses.

Yun Xi doesn't want anything except the Seven Star Tower.

"No, little sister, you were the one who started this, how can you give it up now?" Yun Qi was the first to disagree.

Yun Yan also said, "That's right, this is your property, you should take it away as a dowry."

Yun Yi is still young, but he knows how to live. He used to think that his family was all extravagant and no one was reliable except him. Later, when his family suddenly got better, he realized that they were not short of money. He also knew that his sister was the most reliable.

He felt a little disappointed with Yun Xi for giving away her property so generously.

Even if you have a share in the property that is given away, it is not acceptable.

He also wanted to earn some property for his elder sister's dowry, but now he was too young to do that. How could he ask for his elder sister's things?

The little guy strongly objected.

Xi and Yun Huaiyuan remained silent. As parents, they certainly hoped that all their children would have enough food and clothing.

They had also long realized that Yunxi was the one who made the most money in the family. Although the other children were good, they would definitely not have the current abilities without Yunxi.

Now the family's main income comes from the two workshops. If Yun Xi really takes everything away, it will be a bit difficult to cover the expenses of such a big family in the future.

But they also knew that Yunxi had built both workshops, and if she really wanted to take them away, they would have nothing to say. Now that Yunxi had proposed to leave them to her family, as parents they were both relieved and felt a little sorry for her. The two could only remain silent.

Yun Xi said, "My uncle is in charge of the pastry shop, and Sister Yun Fang is also a pastry chef there, and they both have shares. This is an industry I have planned for our entire Yun family.

The two workshops are the mainstay of our family. We were partners with Tianchen in the workshop, and he has a share, so I don’t need it. You can redistribute the remaining shares, one for each of my parents, my eldest brother, my second brother, and my youngest brother.”

"How can this be done?"

"We don't want it."

"I disagree."

The ones who said no were Yun Qi and Yun Yan, the ones who didn't want it were Xi and Yun Huaiyuan, and the one who disagreed was Yun Yi.

"You all have to listen to me on this matter."

Yun Xi was determined.

She has many ways to make money, not just these two workshops.

Yun Qi and Yun Yan looked at each other and finally took a step back.

"How about this, Yunji Bakery will be left to the family, but we have to redistribute the shares of the two workshops."

Yun Yan agreed, "Yes, redistribute it. The three of us will each get 10%. Tianchen will get 30%. The remaining 40% will go to you, my little sister."

Yun Yi nodded his head quickly, "That's fine, we brothers and sisters can all have one. If elder sister doesn't agree, I don't want it either."

Yun Xi thought about it and finally nodded, "Okay, that's it, but I have a small request."

"You say." Yunqi said.

"I will only need 30%. I plan to divide the remaining 10% into three parts. I will give 3% to my eldest uncle and my younger uncle each, and the remaining 4% will be used as dividends for the managers of the workshop."

His uncle and his younger uncle's family are all pretty nice people, and giving them some shares would also provide them with extra protection.

Most of the managers in the workshop were shrewd and capable people she had selected from the younger generations of the same clan. In ancient times, family interests were more involved, and it was truly good for everyone to be well.

The three brothers wanted to say something but were stopped by Yun Xi, "If you agree, we can sign a new contract. If you don't agree, I don't want anything."

"Okay, it's up to you."

The matter was settled. Yun Huaishan and Yun Huaian's family were naturally very grateful.

The two families also gave Yunxi a lot of dowry.

The day before the wedding, the Mu family, Song Bingning and Lu Peixiu all came to add makeup to Yunxi.

Song Lin didn't come because as an elder and a man, it was not easy for him to add to the makeup.

But he gave Ying Tianchen a big gift.

But when Ying Tianchen saw that they were all women's things, he had no idea what was going on. These were not wedding gifts for him, but obviously for his princess.

“Feng Feng, throw all these things into the warehouse. If you want to give gifts to unimportant people in the future, give these things away.”

Yu Fengfeng looked at the hundreds of equally sized, round, full pearl head ornaments, the face fan inlaid with gold and jade, and the other exquisite and beautiful, obviously valuable items. He exclaimed, "Wow!"

Well, Your Majesty, you are being generous to others.
