As far as I know, the bride price range where I live may be from one hundred thousand to three hundred thousand RMB, and it doesn’t include 三金, 定亲, clothing, cars and houses. But it depends, if the groom is excellent enough or the groom's family is wealthy enough, the bride may not ask for anything. Generally speaking, the bride's price here is at least one hundred thousand RMB. I don't know where the writer is from. If he or she is from China, they really shouldn't have thought that the price of that bride is too high.

Bride is the female who is getting married, a wedding is the event where two people are getting married.
What do you mean by houses? Hotel rooms for guests?

But it depends, if the groom is excellent enough or the groom's family is wealthy enough, the bride may not ask for anything.

I don't understand what you mean by "excellent enough".

I don't know where the writer is from.

I think you mis-matched the word "writer". Because this sentence makes no sense in the context of a wedding.

If he or she is from China, they really shouldn't have thought that the price of that bride is too high.

I don't understand the sentence at all, could you re-write it?

In China, if men are going to get married, they are supposed to buy a new house to live for their marriage.

For example, you are the groom and you are very handsome, well educated, have good manners, have strong abilities to make money, all of these good things. Or you can just say, the groom is very excellent.

This essay was originally written from a discussion. A person (the writer) posts a moment on an app. The topic is how much “bride fee” (the bride fee means how much money a groom needs to pay the bride to get married) in marriage in your area.

I meant that if the writer(who posted a moment about the bride fee in his/her area and thought it was too high) is from China, then he/she will not consider the bride fee to be that high because the high bride fee in China is so common and everybody knows.

In that case, you should write it like this instead "if the groom has many desirable qualities"

Write "they really thought the price of that bride is too high" in that case.
