Fang Shuang was about to leave when Fang Ziqiang returned. His face was drawn out, and the anger that had been burning for a long time had not yet subsided. Fang Shuang, familiar with his personality and temper, cautiously called out, "Dad, you're back."
Fang Zilin was sitting at the table drinking porridge. Seeing that he had returned from get off work and looked a little strange, he hurriedly asked, "Brother, did something happen again?"
"No."
Fang Ziqiang didn't intend to tell them about the frustration he had today. He said to Fang Shuang, "Pour me a bowl of tea."
Fang Shuang said "Oh" and immediately went to pour tea, but then she remembered that there was no water in the teapot. She had to go to the kitchen to get a bowl of cold water and said obediently, "Dad, the water hasn't boiled yet. You should drink a bowl of cold water first."
Fang Ziqiang frowned. He hadn't drunk cold water for many years. He often drank cold water before he married into the Yun family. Once, he had intestinal colic after drinking cold water. Yun Jinghong gave him medicine and repeatedly told him not to drink unboiled water, saying that water that has not been boiled at high temperature is unclean and contains parasites. Since then, he has never touched cold water again.
"How come there are so many people at home and no one has a drink of water?"
He started to question her, and Fang Shuang felt a little embarrassed: "Xiaojun and I were out looking for my mother and sister all day. When we came back, we were tired and thirsty, and we drank all the water in the teapot."
Speaking of Li Hongxia and her daughter, Fang Ziqiang frowned: "Haven't you found them yet?"
"No, we've searched everywhere we could, and no one has seen them."
Fang Shuang was chased and beaten by Yun Huaying in the morning. Her body was covered with scars. She was given medicine in the hospital. Later, her grandmother drove her out to look for her. She endured the pain and ran to many places to ask people, but those who knew her mother and sister said that they had not seen them in the past two days.
Fang Jun came out of the room and stood at the door and said, "Dad, could it be that Mom and Big Sister have been killed by Yun Huaying?"
As soon as he said this, Fang Ziqiang rolled his eyes at him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense. Many people in the family quarters heard my mother arguing with her yesterday at noon, and then she disappeared. Since both of them are missing, it must be related to her." Fang Jun had told Fang Shuang about this before, and he intuitively felt that it was related to Yun Huaying.
Fang Shuang's eyes flickered slightly. Thinking about how she had suffered a great loss at the hands of Yun Huaying today and how her whole body was aching, she immediately came to his aid. "Dad, what Xiaojun said makes some sense. Li Fang went home yesterday at noon, and it was Sister Huaying who said that Mom and Eldest Sister were out. No one else saw them, so maybe she was lying."
Fang Zilin had finished his meal by now, and he felt that what his nephew and niece said made some sense. "Brother, it's impossible for two people of that age to disappear out of thin air. I think you'd better go back and take a look. Maybe they haven't left home at all, and are being controlled by Yun Huaying at home."
Fang Ziqiang returned home in the afternoon and did not go into each room to look. He just stood in the living room and quarreled with her. After hearing what they said, he turned around and walked out without saying a word.
Seeing that he was about to go back to the family area, Fang Shuang and Fang Jun immediately followed him. Fang Zilin also said to Li Qiaoling who was standing at the kitchen door: "I'll go over and take a look. I'll come back later to eat. We'll take the food to Mom later."
Yun Huaying, who was hiding in the corner of the back wall and eavesdropping, curled up the corner of her mouth in a strange sneer. She did not rush back, but left quietly first.
When Fang Zilin and his companions rushed back to the Heping Community, most of the neighbors were having dinner. In just a few hours, the news that he shamelessly stole the precious medicine left by Old Man Yun had spread, and everyone looked at him with contempt.
"Yun Huaying, open the door." Fang Ziqiang kicked the door directly.
There was no sound in the room, but Fang Jun continued to kick, revealing his rogue and gangster nature.
The neighbor next door stood at the door with a bowl in hand and said, "Hua Ying is not at home."
Seeing that she was not at home, Fang Ziqiang took out the key to open the door. The door lock had not been changed yet, so the door opened quickly and a group of people rushed into the room to look for her.
Except for Yun Huaying's small bedroom where there was packed luggage, the other rooms were empty. Everything was cleaned up, even the dust in the room was swept away.
After searching around, Fang Zilin shook his head: "Brother, I didn't find it."
The neighbor next door had come over to watch what they were doing. Seeing what they were looking for, he asked, "What are you looking for?"
Since he had already lost all face, Fang Ziqiang asked her with a stern face, "Sister Hao, did you hear Hongxia and Huaying arguing yesterday at noon?"
"I heard it."
Mrs. Hao didn't know why he asked that, so she continued, "Your family has a shrew scolding every day. If she doesn't scold you one day, you won't get used to it."
Fang Ziqiang knew Li Hongxia's temper, but now was not the time to discuss this, so he asked, "What happened then? Did anyone of you see Hongxia and Xue'er leave the house?"
"It was midday, and we were all eating at home when we heard the mother and daughter cursing and kicking the door like crazy. They kicked for a while, and then there was no sound."
Fang Ziqiang knew all too well how violent Li Hongxia could be. She would curse and fight for three to five minutes without stopping. He was now even more certain that Yun Huaying was involved in their disappearance. He immediately said, "Second Brother, go out and look for Huaying. Bring her back immediately if you find her. I'll call the police."
"Okay." Fang Zilin immediately ran away with the younger generations.
"Call the police?"
Seeing that their family was in trouble again, Sister Hao asked, "Why, do you think the disappearance of Li Hongxia and her daughter has something to do with Yun Huaying?"
"I will notify the Public Security Bureau to investigate." Fang Ziqiang had other plans in mind, so he didn't say much to them. He locked the door and left.
As soon as they left, the other neighbors gathered around. Some wondered, "Li Hongxia and her daughter haven't been seen since yesterday afternoon. With such a big thing happening at home, it's impossible for them not to make a fuss. Could this really be related to Yun Huaying?"
"They are two living people. Even if Huaying takes action to deal with them, there will be no sound at all." Mrs. Hao did not doubt her.
"Li Hongxia and Fang Xue are so violent and noisy. It's impossible for even three or five grown men to get rid of them quietly, let alone Yun Huaying. I think this matter is very strange." Grandma Li Feng also agreed with her.
"Yun Huaying went out quite a lot from yesterday to today, but we saw her every time she came in and out. There's nothing strange about her. The Fang family just went to look for her in the house, but they couldn't find her."
"There's no one in the house. Yesterday evening, several people in my family went in and out of the house seven or eight times to move things back and forth, and Yun Huaying was the only one at home." Li Feng's mother said while holding a bowl. She and her husband and two sons all went into the house yesterday to move things to the welfare home to make sure that there was no one in the room.
When she said that, everyone remembered. Sister Hao curled her lips and said, "Several of us saw Huaying leaving the house yesterday at noon. She went out alone and even spoke to us at the time. Li Fang also went by before she left. I also heard Huaying say that the mother and daughter left in a hurry. It was only a minute or two. It's impossible that Li Hongxia and the others had any accidents at home. I think Fang Ziqiang is deliberately using this incident to retaliate against Huaying."
"Most likely, he is a beast in human form. Maybe Li Hongxia and her daughter were not missing at all, and he deliberately framed Huaying with the blame. In all likelihood, he wanted to get the money back from Huaying." Another woman intuitively knew the truth.
