The Wang family has been very busy recently, rushing to the town's supply and marketing cooperative every Sunday to prepare wedding items for Wang Pandi.
That day when the Yang family came to discuss the wedding date, they offered the bride price as promised during the matchmaking— a bicycle, a sewing machine, plus 88 yuan as a cash gift.
Moreover, Yang Zhigang had already bought a watch for Wang Pandi, so the bride price was indeed quite substantial. In fact, no one had heard of any girl in the nearby area receiving such a generous gift for a wedding.
The Yang family was generous, and the Wang family was not stingy either. Over the past year or so, Wang Pandi had saved some money, and the cash gift given by the Yang family was left untouched by Liu Yulan, leaving a significant sum for the dowry.
