Chapter 186 The Mu Family’s Child is Missing

Mu Qin and Tong had two children, a daughter named Mu Nian who was nine years old, and a son named Mu Huai who was six years old.

Mu's mother scolded: "Why are you making such a fuss? Nian'er took Huai'er out to play and told me when they left."

Tong heaved a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good..."

For some reason, Tong always felt her heart beating fast, as if something was about to happen.

She looked at Mu Yunzhao and asked, "Tell me the truth, were you the one who brought the bandits here?"

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? How could I have attracted the bandits here? How could I have the guts to do that?"

"It's really not you?" Tong stared at Mu Yunzhao suspiciously.

As if trying to see through her.

Mu Yunzhao's face remained calm as he met Tong's gaze, "Sister-in-law, it really wasn't me."

"If I knew it was you who brought disaster to our family, I would never forgive you!"

Rumors were flying around outside that it was the Mu family who brought in the bandits.

I heard that the bandits' lairs were wiped out, but a few of them managed to escape.

If it was done by the Mu family, those bandits would have dug up the Mu family's ancestral graves.

Although she still suspected Mu Yunzhao in her heart, she had no evidence, so she had to give up.

When it was time for dinner, Mu Nian and Mu Huai were nowhere to be seen until the food was served.

Even Mu's mother was a little worried. "Where did those two kids go to play? Go find them and bring them back for dinner."

Tong's premonition became stronger and stronger, and she always felt that something was going to happen.

My daughter Mu Nian has always been sensible and has never been away from home until dinner time with her younger brother.

"I'll go find them and come back."

Tong searched several houses where the children usually played, but couldn't find anyone.

She returned home in a daze.

Mu Qin asked, "Where are the children?"

"The child is missing, husband, go and find him."

Tong's face was full of anxiety.

Mu Qin sensed the seriousness of the situation and asked, "How could he be missing? Have you looked for him?"

"Nian'er never plays outside for so long and doesn't come home. The only kids playing with him are from the village. I've looked for them, and they all said they haven't seen them today."

The Mu family members could no longer sit still.

Father Mu said, "Why don't you go and look for it? If you can't find it, go ask every family."

They are two little kids, how far can they run?

The Mu family knocked on every door and asked everyone in the village, but no one had ever seen the Mu family's child.

Tong broke down and cried.

She suddenly slapped Mu Yunzhao in the face and said, "If anything happens to them, I'll hold you responsible!"

Mu Yunzhao covered her face from the pain of the slap and glared at Tong. "Sister-in-law, I understand how you feel. Nian'er and Huai'er called me aunt, and I was very anxious when they got lost. But you can't just hit them without asking any questions, right?"

"Why did I hit you? Don't you know? Do you dare to say that you didn't invite those bandits here? Do you dare to swear an oath?"

"I……"

Looking at Mu Yunzhao's appearance, Tong was even more certain that it was Mu Yunzhao.

Mu's father said angrily, "The most urgent thing now is to find the two children. Nian'er and Huai'er were lost in the village. Mu Qin, go find Ma Cunzheng now and ask him to help find them."

Mu Qin replied yes and hurried out.

Mu Yunzhao's eyes turned, "Father, Mother, could it be..."

"What could it be? Tell me!"

"Could it be a wolf..."

Although Mu Yunzhao didn't finish her words, everyone had already understood the meaning of her words.

Father Mu thought that they had searched the entire village, and there was only one family they had not found, and that was the Lin family.

"Let's go to the Lin family."

Father Mu took two steps and said, "Zhao'er, wait for your elder brother. Call Ma Cunzheng and ask him to go to the Lin family as well."

"If anything happens to my grandchildren, I will make the Lin family pay with blood!"

"Dong Dong Dong~~~"

The knock on the door outside was urgent and loud.

The Lin family was getting ready to go to sleep at this time, but when they heard the noise outside, they all became alert.

Since the last time bandits broke into the Lin family's house, Lin Xiuran specially hired a bricklayer to raise the walls of his house.

After a while, all the Lin family members put on their clothes and came to the yard.

Li Wenjing, Zhao Zhan, and the three Jinwu Guards also came out.

Mrs. Song was puzzled. "It's already this late. Who could be knocking on the door?"

Mother Fang said, "Madam, let me go and take a look first."

Arriving at the gate, Fang's mother yelled, "Who's outside?"

Mu's father said in a sharp voice: "It's me, the Mu family!"

Through the crack in the door, Fang Mama looked out and saw that it was indeed the Mu family.

She hurried back to the yard to report.

Lin Fu frowned: "The Mu family must be here at this hour for some urgent matter. Ran'er and Yan'er, go open the door!"

Lin Xiuran and Lin Xiuyan quickly responded.

The door of the Lin family opened, and Mu's father pushed the two brothers away and entered the Lin family.

Lin Fu asked, "What's the matter, Master Mu?"

"Lin Fu, you allowed your daughter to raise wolves in Xishui Village. Last time, they bit Zhao Zhao, and now my grandchildren are both missing. If anything happens to them, I will make you, Lin Fu, pay with your life!"

Father Mu said viciously!

Upon hearing this, Chai Ya couldn't help but retort, "You old man are so unreasonable! Last time, your daughter brought a wolf cub down from the mountain to harm my daughter, but she ended up getting bitten by the wolf instead of trying to steal the chicken. Who can you blame? Did my daughter ask her to bring the wolf down the mountain?"

"Also, don't say our wolf cub doesn't bite people. Even if it bit your Mu family's child, you deserve it. Don't forget, this wolf cub was sent to our Lin family by your daughter herself!"

Lin Zhiyi curled the corners of his lips.

Chai Ya is becoming more and more clever.

It’s much better than before in Chang’an.

It seems that Fang's mother taught her a lot.

Father Mu was furious: "You!"

Lin Fu understood the anxiety of losing a child.

When Lin Zhiyi was young, he loved to play. He secretly hid in his two brothers' carriage and went to the academy, but fell asleep in the carriage.

He still remembers that anxiety vividly.

Therefore, he didn't bother with the Mu family.

"Master Mu, the two wolf cubs don't bite people. You should look for them somewhere else. Perhaps the children are just playing too much."

Mu's father's eyes were red. "Just because you said there was no answer, did that mean it was gone? Today, your Lin family must give my Mu family an explanation!"

Lin Fu's face instantly turned cold: "My Lin family has never seen your Mu family's children, what are you explaining?"

Li Wenjing stepped forward and said, "Master Mu, please look elsewhere. The Lin family doesn't have any children from your Mu family."

Mu's father was so angry.

The deposed prince only has the Lin family in his eyes.

He had previously hesitated about joining the King of Qi, but now he was even more determined to serve the King of Qi.

"Your Highness, you are engaged to the daughter of the Lin family. Don't you even know right from wrong?"

Li Wenjing's face was grim, and he said coldly, "Master Mu, instead of wasting time here, why don't you think carefully about whether you have made any enemies recently?"
