This was the result of Mrs. Ye's daylong trip to the neighboring village yesterday.
In several villages around, many had their eyes on Shaohua, and while the Xun Family looked down on her, it was fine to settle for someone slightly less prestigious.
A household with a thousand yuan was already considered wealthy at this time, after all, pork hind leg meat was only eighty cents a pound.
If the marriage truly succeeded, just the bridal price alone would be several dozen yuan, and that family wasn't lacking money. They had several valuable items at home, and Mrs. Ye estimated that if they could include a sewing machine in the dowry, there would be something left for Ye Xinghui's betrothal gifts.
She was certainly planning to make a good sum of money from Shaohua.
