There really were numerous troublesome matters in the family, but none of them affected Chen Pingsheng.
After Liu Fen gave Chen Fan some bad advice with her so-called wisdom.
In less than three days, over thirty girls had signed up.
The reasons varied, some were forced by their parents.
Others were selling themselves to save their sick fathers, basically willing to marry anyone who could cover the medical expenses.
Chen Pingsheng often heard villagers say that finding a bride was becoming increasingly difficult.
Not only was the bride price high, but even women who were divorced once or twice could afford to be choosy.
A family needed to accumulate wealth over three generations just to marry a normal bride.

People say there is a shortage of women, but it's only in the big cities that one realizes there are surplus women everywhere.
