Chapter 601: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (14)

After hearing what Wu Yong said, the matchmaker curled her lips and said, "Boss Wu, the problem won't affect the continuation of the family line! Besides, your nephew is lame! It's uncertain who the child will inherit the disease from in the future!"

When Wu Yong heard this, his face turned red with anger. He didn't expect a woman to say such a thing. He stared at her and said loudly, "What nonsense are you talking about! My Xiaojing's leg is not natural, it is lame because of an injury."

The matchmaker disagreed and continued, "Boss Wu, this is just your ignorance. The girl just has a little problem with her brain, but she can definitely give birth to a child.

Your nephew has a lame leg and a disfigured face. He is a perfect match for that old Wang's daughter. Maybe the child they will have in the future will be healthy."

Wu Yongqi explained anxiously, "I just said that my Xiaojing's leg is lame because of an injury, it has nothing to do with genetics.

And Lao Wang’s daughter has been a fool since she was young, how can they be the same! ”

The matchmaker said disdainfully, "Boss Wu, please don't talk nonsense. The girl was fine when she was little. She was frightened and became stupid while walking at night one time.

In fact, I didn’t call the soul back home, and then I missed the time and it was too late.”

After hearing what the matchmaker said, Wu Yong almost fainted from anger.

He felt that the matchmaker was talking nonsense. He and Lao Wang had known each other for many years and had a relatively good understanding of the Wang family's affairs.

The daughter of Lao Wang could not cry when she was born and she started talking at the age of three. Moreover, there were some problems with Lao Wang’s wife. It was simply genetic.

But when the matchmaker saw that Wu Yong didn't believe her, she wanted to tell him a story to brainwash him: "There was a child in the village who accidentally fell into the water and drowned.

Later, when his mother went to the river to wash clothes, she saw the child and was so scared that she ran back home.

From then on, the child's mother became stupid and silly, sitting at the door with a silly smile on her face all day long.

So sometimes people just can’t be frightened, otherwise they will really become stupid.”

There are many strange things in this world.

However, Wu Yong felt that what the matchmaker said was too outrageous. There was obviously something wrong, but when he came to the matchmaker, he said it was just a fright.

"Stop, stop!" Wu Yong interrupted the matchmaker, "You are a good speaker, I can't beat you."

Before she could finish her words, the matchmaker immediately responded, "How about it? Meet the daughter of the old Wang family."

"No, I've lived in Qiucheng for many years, and I've known Old Wang for many years. To be frank, you may not know more about his family than I do." Wu Yong didn't want to break up with the other party.

Who would have thought that the other party was so ignorant, and just wanted to force the silly girl from Old Wang's family into their home, and he also knew to make things clear.

When the matchmaker heard this, she stopped "selling" the girl from the Wang family and just left the Wu family with a wry smile.

Today Zhou Jing happened to go to a village outside the city to collect pigs, and he didn't know that the matchmaker came to his house. When he came back, he happened to meet the woman walking out. He thought she was here to buy pork, so he didn't take it seriously.

What happened this time made Wu Yong upset for several days. He said that the matchmaker was not a small matter, and he was afraid that the Wang family would pester him.

Wu Yong wanted to tell his nephew about his wife, which caused people in Qiucheng to talk about it for several days. When "Zhou Jing" found out, he immediately told his "uncle" not to bother with it because he had no plans to get married.

"You want to marry, but there are no suitable girls in this city." Wu Yong sighed, "Forget it, everyone has their own destiny, I don't care."

Only after knowing that Wu Yong had given up did "Zhou Jing" finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, the discussion about "Zhou Jing" has not yet ended, and new rumors have come from Qiucheng.

It turned out to be Doctor Yao from Yong'an Hall in the east of the city. He had a conflict with his wife in his early years, and the daughter she had taken back to her parents' home wanted to be returned.

"I heard that Doctor Yao's daughter is also a doctor?" A group of people had nothing to do, so they sat under the wall, eating melon seeds and chatting.

"It seems that's what they said!"

"What kind of illness can this female doctor treat? Do you understand this method of looking, smelling, asking and palpating?"

"It seems like he learned some kind of Western medicine from foreigners, and his method of treating patients is different from that of Dr. Yao!"

"Humph! That must be even more expensive! I can barely afford the Chinese medicine at Yong'an Hall, let alone spend money on Western medicine!"

"So, if you have any problem, don't be sick. If you have no problem, don't be poor. Look at what happened a few days ago. Old Zhao was so tall and big, but he still had to beg for money everywhere!"

"Hey, we've gone off topic! We're talking about Doctor Yao's daughter now! How old was she when she left? She's been gone for more than ten years." Someone counted on his fingers, "Wow! She must be almost twenty now!"

"She's still not married at the age of twenty? And she's back to live with her father. She might as well be an old maid!"

As if he had thought of something, one of the men smiled greedily.

"Hey... Hey! What are you thinking about!" The person next to the man pushed him, "Don't dream, she is the only daughter of Doctor Yao. Even if she doesn't get married, she will stay in the Yao family for the rest of her life, and he can afford to support her. This is not a good deal for you to take advantage of."

As soon as these words were spoken, a few people who were gossiping laughed at the man, and soon the group dispersed.
