The family didn't even have time to rest and all ran out to look for Old Lady Ye.

The first place they thought of was the pig head shop. When they went there, the shop was about to close. Ye Zhankui pushed the waiter aside and rushed in without saying a word.

The waiter stopped them from behind and said, "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Can't you see that we are closed?"

Ye Zhankui ignored him and went straight to the backyard: "Mom, mom, are you there? If you are, just say something."

"Grandma, grandma..."

"Mother, mother..."

Ye Hai and Tian also followed behind to the backyard.

Liu Niang and Zhang Sanjin ran out of the house: "Ye Hai, what are you doing? You are trespassing."

"Where did you hide my grandma?"

Liu Niang rolled her eyes and said, "Why would we hide an old woman like her?"

Zhang Sanjin said with a cold face: "We have never seen her. If you really want to find someone, look somewhere else. There is no one here."

At this time, the Ye family was still searching the houses one by one.

Seeing Ye Zhankui was about to enter the room where Ye Shi kept the hot pot base, Zhang Sanjin rushed forward.

"I said I wasn't here, didn't you hear me?"

The more Zhang Sanjin said this, the more Ye Zhankui wanted to see this room: "Get out of the way."

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you can just rummage around here?"

At this time, everyone gathered around. Ye Hai said with a gloomy face: "We don't want to cause trouble. As long as we confirm that my grandma is not here, we will leave immediately."

The two sides just confronted each other.

Seeing that this was no solution, Liu Niang gently tugged at Zhang Sanjin's sleeve.

Zhang Sanjin finally calmed down. He took a step back, leaned sideways and opened half of the door to let Ye Zhankui see.

There were a few bags piled up in the corner. Ye Zhankui only had time to take a quick look before the bag was closed by Zhang Sanjin.

Although Ye Zhankui was willing to admit it, Old Lady Ye was indeed not here.

They didn't have the energy to make trouble with Zhang Sanjin at the moment. The most important thing now was to find Old Lady Ye.

After coming out of the pig head shop, I looked everywhere I could think of, but I didn't see Old Lady Ye.

When they came back tired from outside, Xiaoshan had already gone back to his room to sleep, and only Ye Lian'er was waiting for them.

Ye Zhankui looked tired: "Is your grandma back?"

Ye Lian'er shook her head.

"She has looked everywhere she can, where else can she go?"

"Did he really go to Changning Village?"

Ye Lian'er thought about what happened last time she went to Changning Village. Based on her understanding of her grandmother, she would never go there alone.

"Let's look for her tomorrow. She went out to buy groceries today. Let's go to the vegetable market tomorrow. Someone there may have seen her."

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, everyone except Tian and Xiaoshan got up early.

They went to the vegetable market. Someone said that they saw her buying vegetables yesterday and then went back home after buying them.

I looked everywhere I could, but I couldn't find Old Lady Ye.

Ye Zhankui was a filial son after all, so he decided to visit Changning Village.

This time they didn't even see Ye Shian and his daughter. The servant just replied coldly: "Our master is busy and has no time to see you. As for the person you mentioned, we haven't seen him. If you want to come in and search, then go and report to the authorities."

Ye Shian, who said this, didn't know that Old Lady Ye had already been to the government office, and he didn't know that the government office had just sent them away so casually.

What could Ye Zhankui and Ye Hai do but go back in disgrace.

After returning to Wanning Prefecture, Ye Zhankui suddenly stopped when he looked at the moat. He stared blankly at the lake, with bad thoughts rising in his mind.

Wouldn't his mother...

Tian followed Ye Zhankui's gaze and asked, "Do you suspect that mother jumped into the river?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Don't I know who my mother is? She would never jump into the river to commit suicide."

"Unless..." Tian thought of something and swallowed subconsciously.

"Someone doesn't like me and wants me to die..."

She didn't need to say the rest. If anyone wanted Old Lady Ye to die, they would only think of one person, and that was Yu Xiuying and her daughter...

Ye Zhankui clenched his fists unconsciously.

Seeing this, Ye Lian'er quickly advised: "Mom, don't talk nonsense. We can't make random guesses without any evidence."

"What do you mean by 'no evidence'? We have evidence, okay? The entire Changning Village is a witness. They saw it all. They must have known that we went to the government office and were afraid that we would publicize their scandal, so they killed your grandmother."

"Not only does she want to kill grandma, she also wants to harm us. When she and her daughter were in the Ye family, they didn't have enough to eat or wear. Yes, they will definitely not let us go."

"It's over, it's over, my child's father, what should we do? What should we do? Yu Xiuying is powerful now, and even the government dare not deal with our family's affairs. We are doomed."

The more Tian spoke, the more frightened he became, and the more outrageous his words became.

Ye Lian'er tried to comfort Tian: "Mom, don't scare yourself. I believe that my aunt is not that kind of person. Grandma must have been delayed by other things. It may not be my aunt and the others who did it."

"Oh, my silly child, you still think she is a good person, and you keep calling her aunt. Maybe your grandmother has been killed by her."

"Enough!" Ye Zhankui interrupted Tian's words with an angry roar, and went home alone with his head down.

The news that Old Lady Ye had disappeared soon spread among the neighbors.

Li Xiulan was so happy that she talked to her neighbor at the door: "Humph, I told you, bad people will get their comeuppance. If you do too many bad things, you'll get stuck even when you're walking."

Tian happened to pass by, and when she heard what Li Xiulan said, she was almost angry to death.

"What did you say, tell me again."

"Just say it. She has done too many unscrupulous things. She should be more careful when she walks and drinks water. She might be dead."

"You are the one who has lost everything. Your whole family has lost everything. Li Xiulan, don't think that Yu Xiuying and her daughter will support you. In her eyes, you are just a poor relative who is begging for money. You are still gloating over yourself here. It's really laughable."

"Hey, hey, hey, you are jealous, aren't you? Hey, I am a poor relative, I am just begging for money, but there are some people who she wants to beg for money but can't, why? Because they can't even enter the house."

"Shut up! If you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart."

"Come here, I'll skin you alive."

The two men became more and more excited as they talked, and were about to start fighting, so the neighbors who were sitting nearby quickly stood up to break up the fight.

Li Xiulan saw someone pulling her, and her voice got louder: "Come on, I'm afraid of you. My elder sister-in-law suffered a lot when she was at your house. Now that she has money, you are jealous. What were you doing before?"

"Who is jealous? Who is jealous? Isn't it her duty to take care of her mother-in-law? It's Yu Xiuying's turn to take care of her mother-in-law."

"Bullshit, what mother-in-law, whose mother-in-law, the relationship is broken off, you know it's broken off."

"When you despised my elder sister-in-law, you couldn't wait to get rid of her. Now that she is rich and capable, you rush to say that you are a family? I told you that the relationship is broken off, and now you are two families. You still want to come to my house after the relationship is broken off. You are really shameless."
