As a man, I think in this life of mine, I have only bought 2 pieces of jewelry by myself.
And they are the wedding proposal ring and our wedding rings.
Beside these, there are others which my mother bought for my wife as a wedding gift for her.
Traditionally in Chinese wedding customs, this wedding gift can consist of gold chains or gold bracelets.
Especially, since my wife’s family is from Hong Kong, they are even more particular about jewelry that must be made of gold.

With the New Rich (NR) coming along, there is no limit to the number of leaves you can take for your honeymoon.
