Gu Qingyao disagreed. "Why would it be shameful? Part of the family's wealth belongs to you. Marriage is an important event. We can't possibly allow you to prepare for it yourself.
"Besides, you're getting older. Hurry up and get married! When Grandfather and Grandma and the others find out, they'll be elated."
Gu Jinhang smiled. "There's no need for the family to go to such an expense. But when the time comes, I'll have to ask our grandparents to bring out some nicer pieces of jewelry and hair ornaments. Also…"
Gu Jinhang looked at his younger cousin with a smile. "Young Cousin, Young Aunt is in the jewelry business, isn't she? Can you get a hold of two sets of good quality jewelry? It doesn't matter if it's expensive. I'll give you some good things in exchange.
"I need some jewelry suitable for a young girl. The ones I have are too ostentatious. Can you get me some simpler ones?"
Gu Jinhang did not have much cash, but he had plenty of good items.
