Chapter 13: One piece of cloth per person
Yang Mingmo listened to her sister's words, opened her mouth, and said nothing. Wu looked up at Yang Mingxi's face and said softly, "This arrangement is good. Although you've already handed over fifteen taels of silver, which is a lot, everyone knows you still have seven more. Even if they won't say anything, there might still be some who feel uneasy. If everyone gives you a piece of fine linen, everyone will appreciate your kindness."
Mrs. Wu stopped what she was doing and said with some embarrassment, "But Xi'er, if you do this, you won't have much money left. How about this, we give everyone a set of cloth for a dress. Give your married sister and your grandparents two sets each. That would be enough!"
After hearing this, Yang Mingxi suddenly remembered that she had spent three hundred copper coins on two sets of cotton clothes. If she gave each person a bolt of cloth, she really couldn't afford it. After thinking for a while, she said, "Mom, this is fine. But I don't know how much is a bolt of fine linen?"
"Get it from your third uncle. I estimate it's eighty copper coins per piece! One piece can make four sets of clothes. You can discuss it with your third uncle when the time comes!" After saying this, Wu went to repack the wedding quilt and other things for the man with her second daughter and packed them into boxes.
Yang Mingxi thought about it. The Yang family had seven sons and three daughters on his father's side, plus the old couple and their six wives, for a total of 18 people. His seventh uncle got married on the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, so including his seventh aunt, there were 500 people. There were grandsons and granddaughters. His eldest and second cousins were already married, and his eldest cousin had a son. His eldest brother was also getting married after the New Year. Add in his eldest sister-in-law, and that would be . A total of was indeed a lot! If each person got one piece of rolls of linen, that would be copper coins, which he could afford. Money, after all, could be earned again! After straightening it out, Yang Mingxi ran to Wu and said, "Mother, if there are eighty-one pieces of fine linen, then one piece for each person, that would be four thousand two hundred and forty copper coins. I still have a lot left. Then give my second sister copper coins to keep as a deposit, and give my eldest sister another when she comes back. I'll give you two taels of silver, and I'll still have three hundred and twenty-eight copper coins left." After saying that, he immediately took out two silver coins of one tael and handed them to Wu.
Mrs. Wu stopped what she was doing, looked at Yang Mingxi seriously, reached out and hugged Yang Mingxi in her arms, and said with a choked voice: "Okay, mother accepts it. Mo'er, you accept it too. We must all remember what Xi'er has done for us. When Yan'er comes back, I will ask her to accept it too. Your sister Xi'er is a blessed person, and you will be blessed too. Mother is very happy!" After that, she reached out and wiped away her tears.
Yang Mingxi turned around and counted out sixty-eight copper coins. She took out the remaining five taels of silver ingot and poured all the copper coins from her purse onto the bed beside Yang Mingmo. Then, she looked at Yang Mingmo with a smile and said, "Second sister, I don't have anything valuable to give you as a dowry, but these are my thoughts. I hope that your life after you leave home will be as bright and prosperous as the sound of these copper coins!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Mingmo burst into tears. She hugged Yang Mingxi, speechless with emotion. After a long while, she finally caught her breath and said to Yang Mingxi in a strong voice, "Yes, Xier. I believe our future will be prosperous. Thank you, Xier!" Yang Mingmo didn't know it at this time, but thanks to Yang Mingxi's help, her status in her husband's family had greatly improved, and her life became smoother and happier. Later, with Yang Mingxi's help, her life after marriage was truly bright and prosperous!
