Chapter 835 - 825 Reborn in the Eighties (8) Second Update
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.
Mrs. Ye didn’t feel she was harming her daughter; on the contrary, she believed she had chosen a good family for her, "Don’t worry, would I harm you? Many people in the surrounding villages want to join that family, but they haven’t agreed to any. Guess what, their son said he took a fancy to you. You’re really lucky. Once you’re in their family, you’ll live a life of comfort, something I couldn’t even dream of..."
Shaohua pinched her fingers together, her expression remaining calm, "I won’t marry, I want to continue my studies."
Mrs. Ye was busy envisioning Shaohua’s future.
When she heard these words, the smile on her face instantly solidified, "What did you say? You want to study? Where will the money come from for your studies? Forget about it, don’t even think about it!"
"Oh." Shaohua replied indifferently, not taking it to heart.
