Chapter 17

Wang Xiaoqiang walked out of the health station and, as he passed by the main road in front of Aunt Big Mouth's supermarket, he saw Aunt Big Mouth waving to him from a distance, signaling him to come over.

Wang Xiaoqiang thought Aunt Big Mouth was going to return the money for the ice cream from the evening before, so he waved indifferently and said, "If it's about the change, you don't have to. We can talk about it later."

As he continued walking, Aunt Big Mouth ran over and, without any explanation, grabbed his arm and said, "Come over, I have something to tell you..."

Wang Xiaoqiang had no choice but to follow Aunt Big Mouth into her Big Mouth Supermarket.

"Xiaoqiang, did you just come from the health station?" Aunt Big Mouth asked as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Yes, what's up?" Wang Xiaoqiang was puzzled and asked, not understanding why Aunt Big Mouth was asking this.

"Did you talk with Doctor Xu?" Aunt Big Mouth asked with a suggestive look on her face.

"Talk about what?" Wang Xiaoqiang was even more confused by Aunt Big Mouth's suggestive expression.

"Tsk, what else, about love, of course!"

Aunt Big Mouth's words startled Wang Xiaoqiang, making him feel awkward and somewhat angry. He said, "Aunt Big Mouth, don't talk nonsense. There's nothing between Doctor Xu and me."

"Oh, you kid, how can you... " Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's reaction, Aunt Big Mouth was somewhat surprised and suddenly realized that Wang Xiaoqiang might not know about the matchmaking. She asked, "Xiaoqiang, did you know that I was setting you up?"

Wang Xiaoqiang's face froze, and he asked, "Aunt Big Mouth, did you set me up?"

"Yes! I went to your house early this morning, but you weren't there..." Aunt Big Mouth explained in detail, "Could it be that you haven't been home yet, and your parents didn't tell you..."

"I did go home, but I really didn't hear anything." Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Could it be that the person you introduced me to is Doctor Xu?"

Aunt Big Mouth's face lit up, and she pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang, saying, "Look, I haven't even said it, and you've already guessed. It seems you and Doctor Xu really have a connection..."

"So, have you already proposed this to Doctor Xu?"

"Of course, I told her this morning. Guess what, I made her guess, and she immediately guessed it was you... You two are a perfect match." Aunt Big Mouth brought her thumbs together in front of Wang Xiaoqiang.

"No wonder, no wonder..." Wang Xiaoqiang thought to himself, remembering Doctor Xu's attitude towards him at the health station, and immediately understood.

"What do you mean, no wonder?" Aunt Big Mouth rolled her eyes at Wang Xiaoqiang's dazed look and said, "Xiaoqiang, you must seize this opportunity. You know, Doctor Xu is a good match in every way, and she's from the county. If you marry her, it will be a great honor for your family!"

"Aunt Big Mouth, don't talk anymore. This is impossible. Girls nowadays are very practical. They all want to marry someone better, who would marry down?" Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head. He didn't dislike Doctor Xu, but he found the whole situation troublesome and didn't want to spend a lot of time on romantic issues.

"I know girls nowadays are practical, but not all of them are like that." Aunt Big Mouth said, "If Doctor Xu has feelings for you, wouldn't you be letting her down..."

Mentioning this, Wang Xiaoqiang really felt that Doctor Xu had feelings for him. Otherwise, with her personality, she would have directly refused, and she had even asked him to help at the health station.

Although Wang Xiaoqiang was a bit shy, he wasn't completely clueless.

"So, Xiaoqiang, Aunt hopes you'll be more proactive..." Aunt Big Mouth said, then took out five yuan from the counter and put it in Wang Xiaoqiang's pocket, "This is the change for the ice cream."

Wang Xiaoqiang immediately took out the five yuan and handed it back to Aunt Big Mouth, saying, "No, I can't eat your ice cream for free."

Wang Xiaoqiang knew that Aunt Big Mouth, raising a child alone, had a hard time. Although she ran a supermarket, the profit was small, and she didn't earn much. If it weren't for her wealthy brother's support, she wouldn't be able to make ends meet. Wang Xiaoqiang didn't want to eat her ice cream for free.

"Xiaoqiang, take it. Listen, Aunt has a favor to ask." Aunt Big Mouth didn't take the money.

Wang Xiaoqiang was taken aback by Aunt Big Mouth's words, not knowing what he could do to help her, but he still put the money back on the counter and said, "Aunt Big Mouth, you don't have to be so polite. If I can help, I will."

Aunt Big Mouth felt relieved and said, "Actually, I've already talked to your parents. I want you to treat my brother's leg... You know, my brother's condition is the same as your parents'. I don't ask for much, just to make him able to walk without a cane..."

"Uh..." Wang Xiaoqiang knew that Aunt Big Mouth had found out about his treatment for his parents' legs. Since he had already promised to help, he couldn't back out, especially since Aunt Big Mouth had introduced him to a potential match, and he should show gratitude, regardless of whether he accepted it or not.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xiaoqiang directly agreed, "Alright, if your brother is available, have him come over!"

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang agree, Aunt Big Mouth was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, "Convenient, convenient. I'll call him right now. By the way, Xiaoqiang, where do you plan to treat him..."

Wang Xiaoqiang looked around the supermarket and finally pointed to Aunt Big Mouth's house behind the supermarket, "At your house!"

"Okay, okay!" Aunt Big Mouth nodded and made the call.

After the call was connected, Aunt Big Mouth mentioned Wang Xiaoqiang's massage treatment to her brother, Zheng Danan.

Zheng Danan was skeptical. In Huagui County, he was one of the few local entrepreneurs, running a large livestock farm and a food processing plant, with a net worth of tens of millions. Of course, he wasn't short of money for medical treatment.

However, despite having money, he had visited many large hospitals and seen many famous orthopedic doctors, but his leg remained the same, always dependent on a cane. Now, hearing that a young man under twenty could treat his leg with massage, he naturally found it hard to believe. However, although he was skeptical, he didn't outright refuse and raised some questions.

Seeing her brother question Wang Xiaoqiang's massage technique, Aunt Big Mouth subconsciously glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang, then quickly covered the phone and lowered her voice, "Come over, just to see your nephew..."

"Uh, if you put it that way, I'll come. I miss my nephew too!"

After hanging up, Zheng Danan left his office with a cane and went to the parking lot. He then ordered his driver to drive to the market to buy a lot of snacks for children and headed straight for Sanmiao Village.

Zheng Danan's company was not far from Sanmiao Village. In about half an hour, his BMW stopped in front of Aunt Big Mouth's supermarket.

Zheng Danan's shiny BMW attracted many elderly people and children from the village. They gathered around to watch.

The driver, Li Gang, a young man in his thirties, quickly got out of the car and walked around to the other side to open the door, intending to help Zheng Danan out. However, Zheng Danan, who was very concerned about his image, pushed the driver's hand away when he saw the crowd and said, "I can manage."

He then got out of the car with a redwood cane inlaid with a golden dragon. Because he had to use one leg and was overweight, his face turned red from the effort. The crowd was staring at him, making him feel awkward.

"Brother, you're here so quickly!" Aunt Big Mouth came out of the supermarket and hurried to help Zheng Danan.

"Don't help me!" Proud people are strong, and Zheng Danan glared at his sister and insisted on walking by himself. As he walked, he turned back and waved to the driver, saying, "Gangzi, give some of the snacks to the children."

Driver Li Gang took out a large bag of snacks and distributed a pack of candy to the children.

Aunt Big Mouth knew her brother's temper and could only follow him awkwardly.

Zheng Danan came to the supermarket and, introduced by Aunt Big Mouth, met Wang Xiaoqiang.

When Wang Xiaoqiang examined Zheng Danan's leg, Zheng Danan also scrutinized Wang Xiaoqiang, finding him more and more suspicious. He didn't look like a doctor at all and couldn't help but show some disdain, asking, "Xiao Wang, can you really treat my leg?"

Wang Xiaoqiang saw that Zheng Danan's leg was similar to his parents' condition and believed that using wood-based spiritual energy could treat it. He nodded and said, "I think you should be able to walk without a cane."

Hearing this, Zheng Danan looked at Wang Xiaoqiang with a hint of amusement and said, "You seem pretty confident. But how can I trust you?"

Wang Xiaoqiang was somewhat unhappy with Zheng Danan's skepticism but, because he was Aunt Big Mouth's brother, he suppressed his dissatisfaction.
