How do we know Vera's family is wealthy?

I am trying to figure out whether Vera's family is Upper or Middle class.

We don't know if the family is wealthy or not. From the text, we can infer that they aren't poor. They live in a nice community, Framton visits with a "formal introduction, and though Vera is a talented storyteller, her manners are impeccable. The men of the family hunt each day, for food or sport.... we're never told.
