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.
