Wedding engagement is an important affair and it demands a lot of time and attention. It is a ceremonial occasion to show honor to the bride's parents, and of course, a generous dowry is expected.
After all, the Chen Family is an Aristocratic Family with a history spanning from the Middle Ages, respectable ancestry, and affluence. The family has eight clans, and each clan is further divided into 72 tribes; there are also countless family generals and servants. Needless to say, they are a big family.
It was difficult to estimate the number of families paying close attention to the marriage between Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen. Numerous people kept a watchful eye on whether Zhang Ruochen had prepared sufficient dowry and gifts. If Zhang Ruochen's gifts were not adequate, the members of the Chen Family were ready to ridicule Huang Yanchen's parents.
