"Dad, you said we chased him all the way to the county government office but didn't see any sign of Cui Fangzheng. Could he have already gone in?"
"Is that thing he rides really faster than a horse?"
Wang Shouxin's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death. He raised his eyes and said.
"How about this, Guangzong, listen to me. Let's look for the thing he was riding and see if it's around. If we find it, then he won't run away. He must have gone in."
"Okay, I'll look over here, Dad, you go over there."
After the father and son discussed it, they each started looking seriously.
After searching for a long time and finding nothing, the father and son gathered together and sighed.
"How could he not have that? Did he bring that thing to the county government office?"
"Impossible. No outside horses are allowed into the county government office, and that thing he's riding certainly isn't allowed either."
"Then why can't we find him outside? We've been chasing him all the way but haven't even seen a trace of him. Could it be that Cui Fangzheng and that thing just disappeared out of thin air?"
"If it disappeared out of thin air, that would be too incredible. I don't think so. There must be something we haven't thought of. What's going on?"
Both father and son looked worried.
He didn't dare to disturb the county magistrate in the middle of the night, nor did he dare to leave rashly before finding Cui Fangzheng.
It's a dilemma.
Wang Shouxin and his son were guarding the gate of the county government office, not daring to relax at all.
As time passed, they became more and more confused.
"Dad, even if Cui Fangzheng went in to report to the authorities, he should have come out after such a long time, right? If we wait any longer, it will be dawn. Doesn't the county magistrate sleep?"
Yes, it is impossible for Cui Fangzheng to stay in the county government office for such a long time without coming out.
There is only one possibility now, Cui Fangzheng is not inside.
Could it be that Cui Fangzheng had already arrived at the county government office before them, reported to the authorities, and left before they arrived?
But even if that was the case, Cui Fang should have met them on his way back.
Where did Cui Fangzheng go?
Could it be that a living person really disappeared quietly in the night like a ghost?
Wang Shouxin was full of thoughts. He lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally made a decision helplessly.
"If we can't wait any longer, we won't wait any longer. Let's go back first."
"Go back?" Wang Guangzong exclaimed, "What are we going to do if we go back now? Are we going to wait for the government to arrest us and punish us?"
"I don't want to go back either. There's nothing I can do about it."
Wang Shouxin sighed and told his son his analysis.
"If we rush in to find the county magistrate now, and Cui Fangzheng doesn't report it to the authorities, wouldn't we be walking into a trap?"
"So I decided to go back and check the situation. At least I want to find out whether Cui Fangzheng has reported it to the police. I can also find your sister-in-law to ask her what's going on and see if we can find a solution."
"Let's wait until we understand everything clearly, and then we can find a way to counter it. Now all our family property is in Dad's hands. The worst that can happen is that we give up the family business in one last gamble!"
Wang Shouxin's words were full of helplessness.
After listening to this, Wang Guangzong sighed and nodded.
"Okay, let's do as Dad says. With Dad here, I believe our family will get through this difficult time safely. When this matter is over, I will definitely not let Xiao Yunfei, Meng Xiangyu and the others off."
Listening to his son's words, Wang Shouxin showed a hint of relief in his eyes.
My son has grown up and can help bear the pressure of the family.
Wang Shouxin patted his son on the shoulder and said.
"Good son, let's go back and reunite with your brother first."
"Okay, Dad, do you think my brother has found his sister-in-law now?"
"I don't know. I should have found it. It's been a long time."
"I think I've found it too. My sister-in-law has caused such a big disaster this time. What is Dad going to do with her? Is he really going to divorce her?"
"Well, let's talk about whether to rest or not later. The important thing is to deal with this matter first."
"Dad is right. After we deal with this matter, we can do whatever we want with my sister-in-law behind closed doors."
......
The father and son rode their horses and galloped all the way.
They first went back home to Kaoshan Village, and heard from the old woman that their eldest son had not returned, so they continued riding to Fengtou Village.
When passing by Cui Fangzheng's house, Wang Shouxin stopped and looked into the yard. He didn't see any light in the house. He wondered if Cui Fangzheng was asleep or there was no one at home.
He hesitated for a moment and did not enter the yard, but continued riding to the back mountain.
As he neared the foot of the mountain, he heard voices on the mountain.
It must be the eldest son who is still looking for someone in the mountains with his men.
It's strange, why hasn't anyone been found for so long?
The father and son didn't have time to think about it and hurried up the mountain.
Not long after walking, I met a man from a mountain village.
"Lao Zhang, what's the situation now? Have you found the person?"
"Village head, you're finally here. We've been searching the mountains since we arrived. We've searched twice, but we still haven't found anyone. Da Niu said if we can't find him again, we have to go deep into the mountains. You know there are many wild animals in the mountains, and it's night time now, so it's really dangerous. Besides, our physical strength can't keep up. Village head, please make a decision quickly."
"What's going on? How is it possible that we haven't been able to find someone for such a long time? Have you been looking seriously?"
"We searched diligently, calling out Yang Xiaohua's name everywhere, but never heard a response. This made us suspect that your eldest daughter-in-law wasn't even on this mountain."
He and his second son had no luck in pursuing Cui Fangzheng, and his eldest son also had no luck in finding someone.
Wang Shouxin was exhausted both physically and mentally. He took a deep breath and said.
"Where is Daniu? Take me to find Daniu first."
"Okay, come with me, Li Zheng."
Old Zhang took Wang Shouxin and his son up the mountain. After walking for a long time, just when he was exhausted and out of breath, he finally saw his eldest son in person.
"Dad, why are you here on the mountain? Is everything going well for you?"
Wang Shouxin shook his head and asked.
"Haven't you found your wife yet?"
"No, Dad, don't you think Xiao Yunfei and the others are playing tricks on us? Could it be that they hid Xiaohua and deliberately led us to the mountain to play with us like monkeys?"
"Xiao Yunfei and his wife are insidious and cunning. This possibility cannot be ruled out."
As the two were talking, a roar suddenly came from a distance.
"Found it, the person is here!"
Found it?
Everyone was excited at once.
The two sons supported Wang Shouxin and hurried over. They were frightened when they saw Yang Xiaohua.
Yang Xiaohua was tied to a tree in disheveled clothes, her mouth was open as if she couldn't close it, and she kept making "hmmmm" sounds.
"Everyone turn your backs and don't look!"
At Wang Shouxin's command, everyone except the father and his two sons turned their backs obediently.
Wang Daniu hurried forward to untie the rope and said with a look of disgust.
"You damn woman, you only know how to cause trouble for me. I'll kill you. Speak up! Don't be dumb!"
