Chapter 635 - 633 I Have a Lot of Dowry_1
There was still some time before the wedding day, and Mrs. Xia, Mrs. Xia Ning, and Xia Aiguo were all preparing the dowry.
Originally, according to local customs, the bride’s family didn’t need to provide much for a dowry.
But there was no helping it, who asked the family to dote on Xia Ningxing so much?
They wanted to provide Xia Ningxing with a lavish dowry, so that no one would look down upon her, saying they were seeking advantages by clinging to the powerful.
They wanted their actions to tell everyone that their family was wealthy in its own right!
There was no question of climbing the social ladder or seeking favors!
Mrs. Xia’s family was preparing several stores with daily golden profits, as well as houses in various places.
Mrs. Xia Ning was preparing a variety of rare medicinal herbs, things like thousand-year-old lingzhi mushrooms and ginseng, along with various pieces of jewelry she had collected before.
Xia Aiguo slapped his forehead, "Speaking of jewelry, I suddenly remembered I’ve got some treasures hidden up in the mountains. Darling, do you have time tomorrow? Accompany me home, and I’ll give all these things to you as your dowry."
Xia Aiguo’s family had once been affluent too, but after his parents passed away, the family property was evenly divided among Xia Aiguo and his two younger brothers.
It was just that the times were quite peculiar then, and to prevent their fortunes from being seized, Xia Aiguo and his brothers secretly hid the assets they received.
