If you want to get a marriage for Xiao Yuan, you must first marry Xiao Hui.

On the Rong family, when Young Master Rong went back, he praised Xiao Yuan several times.

Mr. Rong also specifically asked the teacher of Bailu Academy, knowing that Xiao Yuan had a very high talent and should be 90% sure of becoming a Jinshi. So, without anyone urging him, the Rong family began to discuss the matter of ceremonies with the Xiao family.

Liuli walked here, and Xiang started preparing dowry for An Ning.

In fact, Governor Qu had already saved up a dowry for An Ning when he was alive.

Later, before Governor Qu passed away, he gave more than half of his property to An Ning. After his death, Xiang did not organize his property because of his sadness. This time he went to Beijing, many things were transported to the Qu family's house in Beijing.

Now that An Ning is about to get married, Xiang has to sort it out for her.

There were too many things, so Xiang and his men organized them for two months before they could sort them out.

The dowry of mistresses from all generations was placed in the warehouse on the other side of the Qu House, and these were all to be passed on to An Ning.

Some furniture is from dozens or hundreds of years ago. The wood is fine, but the style is really old, and many need to be renovated, and some are also terrible. I have to find a way to sell it and exchange it for money and get it into the dowry.

In addition, there are a lot of fabrics and some old clothes.

Xiang would definitely not bring these clothes to An Ning. She sorted them out and some were scattered for her servants, and some were sent to the Child Care Bureau or the Child Care House, which was also considered to be accumulating some blessings for her family.

There is also a lot of fabric piled up in the warehouse, and some of them are tributes, and some palace satin are also some.

These are good things that you can't buy with money now.

Xiang picked a few simple pieces and took them out. The mother and the mother made a few clothes first, and kept the rest well, waiting for An Ning to take to Xiao's family in the future.

Then there is gold and silver jewelry.

An Ning followed Xiang to the warehouse.

Even though she was knowledgeable, she was still blinded by the boxes of gold and silver.

Those gold and silver are really piles of gold and silver. Pearls are not about scattered, but about boxes. What other people say about the South and East beads? Xiang said that they were all pink boxes, white boxes, and gold boxes...

Of course, gems, jade and so on are indispensable.

These are not the most valuable ones.

The most valuable thing is shop land.

This is really impossible to calculate.

When An Ning had the opportunity to stay with Xiao Yuan, she said to Xiao Yuan: "I guess the Qu family's property is more than the national treasury, so I have no fighting spirit. I am afraid I will win in this life."

Xiao Yuan laughed: "Then I will let you win."

There are many things here that were sorted out by Xiang and An Ning and her daughter. Even the servants at home didn’t know. Xiang and An Ning said, “When you get married, these things will be hidden, but don’t reveal them to your son-in-law and don’t let your mother-in-law know.”

An Ning nodded: "Mom, I know everything in my heart. I'm not stupid. I know if I don't show my money."

The Qu family has a lot of wealth, which makes Xiao Yuan feel a little worried.

What should he use as a betrothal gift?

What I worry most is Xiao Hui's dowry.

No matter what Mrs. Xiao is like, Xiao Hui is still a good sister.

Xiao Hui is very good to Xiao Yuan when she beats Xiao Yuan. Every time Mrs. Xiao is making trouble with her, Xiao Hui helps Xiao Yuan, and the relationship between the siblings is also very good.

Then Xiao Hui had to let Xiao Hui get married in a glorious manner.

Let her be able to raise her chest and raise her head in the Rong family and press down on her sister-in-law.

The people in the Rong family looked upwards, with red and white heads. If Xiao Hui's dowry is shabby, life will definitely be difficult in the future.

Mr. Rong San is a good person, and he should be not bad for Xiao Hui.

But he didn't understand the methods of the back home. There were many things that Xiao Hui couldn't even say even if she was wronged.

Xiao Yuan had to find a way to prevent Xiao Hui from being wronged.

The most urgent task is to prepare her a dowry that will stun the Rong family.

Mrs. Xiao also prepared for Xiao Hui.

However, the Xiao family’s family business is not rich, and the family has only spent money but not in the past two years. How much can Mrs. Xiao have to take out her full net worth?

Now, Xiao Yuan has to find a way.

In fact, Mr. Xiao had talked to the original body alone before he left. He was afraid that Mrs. Xiao would take away all the property of the Xiao family to Xiao Hui, so he quietly left a copy for the original body.

Mrs. Xiao didn't know these.

The original body asked the Sun family to help with the business, and the shop given by Mr. Xiao also had money.

After Xiao Yuan came, he cleaned up the shop again to make the business better. He also made a lot of money in the past year.

There is money, but it is very difficult to buy shops and land that you can see in Beijing with this money.

Good land, large areas of land and shops in good places were all taken by the powerful. Xiao Yuan and Jie Yuan were nothing to be in the capital, so he couldn't think of buying any good land.

If you can’t buy land and land, you have to find a way out in other aspects.

Xiao Yuan met An Ning in the evening and discussed the matter with An Ning.

An Ning smiled and said, "This is not difficult. Didn't the Rong family feel that it is precious? Then let's go to the precious. What is the most important thing for scholars? Of course, it is books. Let's find some isolated books to copy and take it to Sister Hui. In addition, in the world where you were promoted to three levels earlier, you had nothing to do in your later years, so you thought about making paper and making all kinds of paper and ink. Now let's pick it up and make a piece of paper that can be sought after by literati. Once you do it, teach Sister Hui and let her marry her with the prescription."

Xiao Yuan applauded and applauded: "This method is good. No matter how many things you have, it is not as good as a skill. When my sister brings this to marry, no one in the Rong family dares to show her face. After all, this can be passed on to the Rong family's children and grandchildren in the future."

That's not the case.

In ancient times, these skills were particularly important.

Xiao Hui has the skills of making paper, and she will pass it on to her children in the future. Her children are naturally the children of the Rong family, so the Rong family will not have to worry about this branch in the future.

Even if something happens to the Rong family in the future and the family is in trouble, the children can buy a family business and send them to their children to study. After decades, they can turn things around again.

An Ning's proposal is good.

Xiao Yuan got the idea and immediately started to buy a small papermaking workshop. The paper made by this workshop was not good and the cost was high. He had already started to lose money. They were in a hurry to sell it. The price given by Xiao Yuan was reasonable. He signed the contract and started to take over it directly.

Xiao Yuan took over the workshop and took someone to sort it out.

After sorting it out, he didn't let anyone follow him, so he stayed in the workshop to experiment with papermaking.

I don’t know what happened in this world, and many places are not as good as some of the ancient worlds that Xiao Yuan had stayed in before.

Take paper for example.

There are many kinds of paper in this world, but the quality is not very good.

He can write and paint, but he does not have the smooth and smooth paper made ink-absorbing ability in the world that Xiao Yuan had lived before, and he is evenly fine and flat. He is not as good as ink absorption, and there are even fewer types.

Xiao Yuan spent a few days thinking about making some paper, he kept some paper for himself, and some were prepared for Xiao Hui.

The paper he prepared for Xiao Hui was extremely elegant, it was a kind of leather paper, but it had patterns on it, which looked particularly elegant and beautiful.

When he finished the paper and took it back, Xiao Hui took it and looked at it, the more she loved it.

At that time, Xiao Hui was sorting out her things with Mrs. Xiao Yuan entered the house and gave it to Xiao Hui with a knife: "Sister, see if these papers are easy to use."
