Chapter 11

While the elderly matriarch of the Wang family, who had a half-paralyzed leg, was able to walk freely without her cane, Aunt Big Mouth was surprised and curious, and couldn't help but point at their legs and ask, "Brother Kuishan, are your legs better?"

"Better! Haha..." Wang Kuishan laughed heartily, "Both my wife and I are better."

"Wow... That's really great news! Where did you get treated?" Seeing the old couple's legs were better, Aunt Big Mouth was also happy for them, but her surprise only grew.

After all, the leg injuries of the two were no secret; everyone knew the condition of the old couple's legs, which were incurable and would require them to rely on canes for the rest of their lives. However, they had unexpectedly recovered, and what's more, the recovery was so sudden. The last time Aunt Big Mouth saw them, they were still using canes.

"Uh... It was our son Xiaqiang who treated us..." Xiaqiang's mother, when asked, replied with a mix of joy and pride.

"Xiaqiang..." Aunt Big Mouth widened her eyes in surprise, "Sister, are you joking?"

How could Aunt Big Mouth believe that Wang Xiaqiang had cured the old couple's legs? In the villagers' eyes, the thin and weak Wang Xiaqiang, who had dropped out of school halfway, was just a young man who was neither scholarly nor athletic, and certainly knew nothing about medicine.

Isn't that a bit too much to praise your son? Aunt Big Mouth muttered to herself.

"It's really Xiaqiang," Liu Juyi interjected, "He used the 'massage' techniques he learned on his own to cure my father-in-law and mother-in-law!"

"Hmm..." Seeing the whole family say the same thing, Aunt Big Mouth still couldn't believe it and couldn't help but ask again, "Da Li's wife, are you serious?"

"Look what Aunt Big Mouth is saying," Liu Juyi said earnestly, "Among neighbors, would we lie to you? Besides, what benefit would we get from lying to you..."

Hearing this, Aunt Big Mouth immediately became serious, "So, my brother's leg can be saved."

Aunt Big Mouth's brother, Zheng Dana, was a big boss who contracted projects. He was over fifty years old. Two years ago, he had a car accident while driving drunk, and one of his legs was crippled. Now, he couldn't walk without a cane, and his condition was similar to that of the Wang couple. Since the Wang couple could walk without canes, Aunt Big Mouth thought her brother's leg could also be cured.

Seeing Aunt Big Mouth say this, Wang Kuishan knew she wanted Xiaqiang to treat her brother's leg. Wang Kuishan, being a straightforward person, immediately promised, "That's easy. When Xiaqiang comes back, I'll talk to him. He'll treat your brother's leg."

Before Aunt Big Mouth could speak, Wang Kuishan had already agreed. With Wang Kuishan's agreement, the matter was basically settled, as everyone knew that Wang Kuishan was the one who made the decisions in the Wang family.

"Then... How can I thank you!" Aunt Big Mouth said, somewhat excitedly.

"Ah, among neighbors, there's no need to talk about thanks..." Wang Kuishan smiled, but then added, "Besides, we also have something to ask of you, the matchmaker!"

Aunt Big Mouth, being a shrewd person, immediately understood that the family wanted to arrange a marriage for their second son. She then remembered the purpose of her visit and smiled, "Brother Da Kui, are you planning to arrange a marriage for Xiaqiang..."

"His Aunt Big Mouth, you know everything..." Xiaqiang's mother said, "We were just thinking the same thing... Our Xiaqiang isn't young anymore, it's time for him to get married..."

Before Xiaqiang's mother could finish, Aunt Big Mouth interrupted her, "I came today to propose a marriage for Xiaqiang."

"Uh, that's wonderful!!" The elderly couple of the Wang family immediately beamed with joy, offering cigarettes and tea. Aunt Big Mouth, due to her profession as a matchmaker, had also developed a habit of smoking.

Under the enthusiastic hospitality of the Wang family, Aunt Big Mouth became more polite, "No need to be so formal. Actually, I don't think my role as a matchmaker is necessary... Xiaqiang and Doctor Xu are a perfect match, both talented and beautiful. I was just worried that Xiaqiang might be too shy and might not appreciate Doctor Xu's good intentions..."

Aunt Big Mouth thought the Wang family knew about Wang Xiaqiang and Xu Xiaoya, so she didn't hold back and spoke directly. However, this left the elderly couple and Liu Juyi confused. They were stunned, and it was Liu Juyi who first reacted, asking, "Aunt Big Mouth, what are you talking about? We don't understand. Is the Doctor Xu you mentioned Xu Xiaoya?"

Seeing this, Aunt Big Mouth realized they didn't know about Wang Xiaqiang and Xu Xiaoya. In fact, there was nothing between Wang Xiaqiang and Xu Xiaoya; last night's situation was just a coincidence, which Aunt Big Mouth had misunderstood.

"Yes! It's Doctor Xu. Don't you know? Didn't Xiaqiang tell you?" Aunt Big Mouth said, recounting the scene she saw at the supermarket entrance in detail.

After hearing this, the Wang family was first surprised, then enlightened, and finally laughed. Their laughter left Aunt Big Mouth confused.

While Aunt Big Mouth was confused, Liu Juyi smiled, "Aunt Big Mouth, you must have misunderstood..."

Then, Liu Juyi recounted how Xu Xiaoya had come to the Wang family last night to arrange for Wang Xiaqiang to see a doctor.

Hearing this, Aunt Big Mouth realized she had misunderstood and laughed awkwardly, "I see, I misunderstood... But..." Her eyes sparkled, "I think these two young people are really a good match, don't you think?"

The elderly couple of the Wang family, though happy, quickly waved their hands and laughed modestly, "Aunt, you're joking. Doctor Xu is from the city, how could she marry into our village?"

"Ah..." Aunt Big Mouth disagreed, "Don't say that. What's so great about the city? Many city residents want to become farmers now. Besides, you haven't seen how many rich people are building villas in the countryside. Our village has green mountains and clear waters, and the air is better than in the city. Moreover, we don't lack food or clothing, and our living conditions are much better than before. For a city girl to marry into our village, it would be a blessing!"

After Aunt Big Mouth said this, the elderly couple of the Wang family felt more confident but still hesitated, "Aunt, how confident are you about this?"

Aunt Big Mouth held up her right hand and wiggled her five fingers, "As long as Xiaqiang has no objections, there's a fifty percent chance. With my big mouth, there's a seventy percent chance."

Wang Kuishan said, "Xiaqiang definitely has no objections. Aunt, if you can arrange this marriage, I'll give you six red carp..."

"Among neighbors, Brother Kuishan, there's no need to be so formal..." Aunt Big Mouth said, "Besides, I'm looking forward to Xiaqiang treating my brother's leg!"

"Rest assured! I'll take care of it. The marriage is a small matter, but the treatment is important," Wang Kuishan said, waving his hand.

Seeing Wang Kuishan's generosity, Aunt Big Mouth opened her big mouth and declared, "Alright, let's settle it this way. When Xiaqiang comes back, let him know and see what he thinks. As for Doctor Xu, leave it to me. To help Xiaqiang marry a city girl, I'll do my best, even if it means talking my mouth off!"
