Chapter 699 The Child is Missing
Zhang cried like a tearful person. Uncle Shao and his son went to the village separately to ask people for help in looking for her. Niu and Yan came to the eldest house for help.
The child is missing, this is a big deal.
It is especially serious when a child who is only four years old disappears.
Everyone in the first wife's family also became nervous. Without Uncle Shao's instructions, the four brothers of Shao Dalang's first wife took the initiative to go out to look for people.
Seeing that Shao Yunduan was also going, Fang opened her mouth to say something, but held back.
Qiao Xuan also stood up and walked to Shao Yunduan: "Husband, I'll go with you!"
She can use her wood-related abilities to connect with the plants and trees in the mountains, and her vision can extend ten miles away, so it will be much easier for her to find it, and it will also be much safer.
She and Shao Yunduan had just returned after a whole day's journey. She was already tired, and it was dark outside. She was worried in case something unexpected happened.
Fang frowned: "Nonsense! What are you doing out there in the dark when you are not used to walking in the mountains? Why don't you just stay home? So many people have gone, you won't make a difference."
Shao Yunduan also said to her gently: "Mom is right, you should rest early at home, I will go."
Niu couldn't help but say, "One more person means more strength. If Qiao wants to go, let her go with her."
It is one thing to feel sorry for the child, but Fang couldn't help but sneer when she heard this: "Of course you would say that if she is not your daughter-in-law? What about Zhang herself? Has she gone out to look for one?"
Niu was speechless and muttered, "It wasn't me who asked Qiao to go. She went there on her own..."
"Then can't you say something nice? Qiao is not from our country. Going up the mountain at night, can she get used to walking on the mountain road? Don't you have a brain? Don't you think? You are just selfish!"
Niu was furious: "Brother, look at what sister-in-law said!"
"Oh, I'm speaking human language, but it's a pity that you can't speak human language."
Uncle Shao said anxiously: "What are you guys still arguing about at this time? Stop talking, the children are more important!"
Shao Yunduan gently squeezed Qiao Xuan's hand and said softly, "Go and rest first, don't worry!"
Her mother-in-law spoke for her and was competing with Mrs. Niu. Now it was not appropriate for Qiao Xuan to say anything about going with Shao Yunduan, otherwise wouldn't it annoy her mother-in-law and make Mrs. Niu proud?
Shao Xianwen is only four years old and he probably can't go far, so it shouldn't be a big deal and he doesn't necessarily have to go by himself.
She nodded and whispered to Shao Yunduan: "Don't be so stubborn."
I'm actually quite tired from traveling today.
Shao Yunduan felt warm in his heart and whispered, "Don't worry!"
The men, including Uncle Shao, went out to look for someone, and the room suddenly became quiet.
Fang asked Xu to go and have a rest, and asked Qiao Xuan and others to have a rest as well.
Seeing this, Yan persuaded Niu to go back.
Qiao Xuan did not fall asleep immediately. Instead, she stood in her own small courtyard, gently stroking a magnolia tree with her hand. She secretly used her wood-related abilities to spread her vision through the branches, leaves, and roots of the plant.
As long as she is willing to search for any movement within a radius of ten miles, she will definitely not miss anything.
This is not an easy thing to do and it takes time.
The search area is too large and more energy-consuming.
Fortunately, Shao Yunduan was not there, so she had nothing to worry about. If she was exhausted, she would go and rest. She would be able to recover when she woke up tomorrow.
Her vision quickly swept across an area of more than ten miles, but to Qiao Xuan's surprise, she did not find Shao Xianwen.
