Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home - Chapter 242
242 Nowhere To Be Seen
Ms. Zhou glared at her Third Sister-in-law, Ms. Lu
Ms. Lu got startled by her unexpected glare. She became really furious after recovering a bit. She glared back and snapped. “What are you staring at me for? Are you blaming me for not teaching your daughter well!”
Fifth Grandma Ding sneered. “What are all of you making a fuss about? It is a small issue. Just drop it! The damned girl can return when she is tired outside. I will teach her a good lesson!”
“Also, Ms. Zhou, how dare you ignore what I told you? Who gave you the permit to give food to the damned girl? Just wait for your punishment!”
!!
Ms. Zhou could not stand that any more. She cried. “How can you all be like this? Ding Xiang is missing! You are not looking for her but keep saying horrible words. If she is gone, I will kill myself too!”
Ms. Zhou rushed out.
Ding Erzhu went out with her as well.
Fifth Grandma Ding shouted. “Stop it, Second Son, are you trying to rebel against me too!”
With his eyes turning red, Ding Erzhu sobbed. “Mom, that is my daughter! She is gone! What if something happens to her? I need to find her first, and I will receive your punishment when I find her.”
Having said the words, Ding Erzhu rushed out.
Fifth Grandma Ding shouted. “How dare you? I have raised you for nothing!”
The other sections of the family got startled and exchanged a look between themselves.
No one had expected that the obedient second section of the family rebelled due to Ding Xiang. They started to feel uneasy. It seemed as if something were falling out of their control.
What happened to Ding Xiang and the Ding Family soon spread all over the village.
Some sighed and some laughed. Some even went out to seek the girl.
After all, it was a living girl that was missing.
Although they all grew up in the mountains, it was a very dangerous place. What if something happened for real?
Fifth Grandpa Ding could not stand the humiliation. He ordered the other family members to look for her.
Fifth Grandma Ding, who was still unwilling to do so, went out with the others after being lectured by Fifth Grandpa Ding.
However, Ding Xiang was nowhere to be seen, even after half a day’s search.
They started to get anxious.
The deeper they went, the more dangerous it would be.
So more people went into the mountains to seek for the girl.
Shao Dalang and his brothers, who had just carried the mushrooms home, also went out to help.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan returned from the mountains and failed to find Ding Xiang after a while.
Shao Yunduan and Shao Xiaoqi even said that they never saw anyone on their way home.
It was getting dark and even adults did not dare to stay in the mountains when it turned dark.
So the villagers returned one after another, and decided to continue with the search the following day.
They all knew that a teen girl would never end up well after spending a night in the mountains. Probably when they found her eventually after a few days, she would be a corpse already.
Ms. Zhou came home crying loudly. Ding Erzhu, who was dumbfounded, followed her.
