Bab 854: Secret (1)

At the end of the year, the Shen family was both happy and unhappy.

The happy thing was that the family was gathered together, which was always a joyous thing. The unhappy thing was that after the new year, Shen Miao was going to marry into the Daliang Dynasty. As time approached, everyone in the Shen family was busy every day. They had to prepare Shen Miao's dowry, gather guards and servants Shen Miao was going to bring with her, and plan out the journey to the Daliang Dynasty.

Although the dowry Shen Xin prepared for Shen Miao was not as good as the betrothal gift Xie Jingxing gave her, it was still very generous. He did not include the shops and fields, because they were useless since Shen Miao was going to another country, and there was not much furniture either because it would be too heavy to carry. Apart from some rare jewelry, the dowry consisted mostly of money. In a foreign country, everything else was dispensable, but money was indispensable.
