Shi Nian returned to her grandparents' house, eager to celebrate Children's Day with Xiao Cao.
But when they arrived, they found that Xiaocao wasn't home.
And only after asking did I learn that Xiaocao had been gone for a long time.
Grandma Shi mumbled, "Xiujuan went to visit relatives, taking Xiaocao with her. It's been a long time, a very long time..."
Upon hearing this, Nian's heart sank.
She didn't know whether Xiujuan was actually visiting relatives or not, but even if she was, she wouldn't bring Xiaocao along.
And even if they were carrying Xiaocao, it's impossible for them to have been gone for so long.
There's definitely something wrong here!
It might even have happened!
...
An hour later, Shi Nian's heart felt like it was being roasted over a fire.
She had already found out that Xiujuan wasn't visiting relatives.
She went to stay with a fellow villager so they could work together in a wealthy area.
As for where Xiujuan went to work in the wealthy area and what she did, no further information could be found.
Xiujuan and her fellow villager disappeared without a trace, as if a stone had sunk into the sea.
After they said they were going to work in an affluent area, Xiujuan's fellow villagers never contacted their relatives and friends again.
According to this explanation, since Xiujuan was going to work in a wealthy area, there was no way she could have brought Xiaocao with her.
So where did the little grass go?
Shi Nian went to Xiao Cao's brother and sister-in-law's house.
The grass is gone.
Xiaocao's sister-in-law gave her a cold look and said sarcastically, "Go away! What are you doing in our house! Aren't you so capable? You took Xiaocao to your grandparents' house, weren't you going to raise her?"
"Why are you coming to our house looking for Xiaocao now! Bah! Ever since you took Xiaocao away, she hasn't come back! What are you doing here!"
"......."
After making several sarcastic remarks, Sister-in-law Xiaocao suddenly seemed to remember something and her expression changed.
She stared at Shi Nian: "You didn't do this on purpose, did you! Tell me! Did you sell Xiao Cao? You didn't want me and her brother to know! And you even came here looking for her! Let me tell you, Shi Nian, if this is the case, her brother and I will never forgive you!"
"You want to take Xiaocao and raise her? No problem! But you have to sell her! You want to keep all the money for yourself? Let me tell you, it's not that simple! Her brother and I have raised her for so long, and you want to get all the benefits for yourself? You..."
Seeing that Sister-in-law Xiaocao's words were becoming increasingly outrageous, Shi Nian turned around and left.
At this moment, she was not in the mood to argue with Sister-in-law Xiaocao.
Xiujuan, Little Grass.
Even if you understand it clearly, problems will arise.
First was Xiujuan.
It's possible that she went to work with her fellow villagers.
Shi Nian knew that Xiu Juan had been feeling somewhat embarrassed ever since she brought Xiu Juan to her grandparents' house.
She is not like a blade of grass; she is a child.
She felt that living at Shi Nian's grandparents' house was somewhat like being a freeloader.
So it's not surprising that she went to work.
Strangely, Xiujuan hasn't contacted me for so long since she went to work.
Not only do they not contact their grandparents, but they also don't contact her.
This is very problematic!
Xiujuan is not such a heartless and ungrateful woman.
So where exactly did Xiujuan go?
And where did the little grass go?
The disappearance of these two people had already made Shi Nian extremely panicked.
Then, she discovered something else.
This incident made Shi Nian's already depressed heart feel like it had fallen into an abyss!
That was Grandpa.
Shi Nian discovered that her grandfather was also experiencing problems.
Grandma was confused, but Grandpa was clear-headed, so when Xiujuan and Xiaocao hadn't seen each other for so long and hadn't been in contact, Grandpa was bound to notice something was wrong.
But he hasn't mentioned it at all in all this time, because he also has brain problems.
When they returned, Shi Nian had not yet noticed.
Grandpa Shi behaved normally.
Even after learning that Xiaocao hadn't gone to visit relatives with Xiujuan, he was extremely anxious and went everywhere to inquire about and search for Xiaocao.
Two hours later, Grandpa Shi suddenly blurted out, "Niannian, are you looking for Xiaocao? Wasn't Xiaocao watching TV? She was sitting on the sofa watching TV!"
Shi Nian was stunned for a moment.
She looked into the living room; the sofa was empty, and the television was off.
Shi Nian thought that Grandpa Shi was seeing things.
She told Grandpa Shi that Xiaocao wasn't watching TV on the sofa.
Grandpa Shi's gaze fell on the sofa. After looking at it for a long time, he said in a daze, "Huh, she's really not here. She was always here before. She sat on the sofa watching TV all day, and she was the same yesterday."
Upon hearing Grandpa Shi's words, Shi Nian felt as if she had been struck straight down by a blunt object!
She looked at Grandpa Shi, her head buzzing.
Grandpa is almost seventy years old.
So it's because we're getting older and our brains are starting to degenerate?
Or is there another reason?
At this moment, Shi Nian's brain was almost completely blank due to lack of oxygen.
Xiujuan.
Little grass.
grandfather.
The changes that befell these three people almost caused her to lose her ability to think.
After waiting a few seconds, Shi Nian pinched her thigh hard.
no!
She needs to calm down now.
We must remain calm.
The house is a complete mess.
She couldn't let herself panic.
Shi Nian forced herself to calm down, and she even managed a smile at her grandfather: "Grandpa, I remember now, Xiao Cao is fine, she just went out to play."
Shi Nian helped Grandpa Shi to the sofa: "You sit down and watch TV first. I'll go find Xiaocao and bring her back."
After a pause, Shi Nian continued, "However, it may take a while. I haven't seen Xiao Cao in a long time, and I want to take her for a walk outside. So we may be back later. Grandpa, if it's too late, you can go to sleep first."
Grandpa Shi nodded.
Shi Nian looked into Grandpa Shi's eyes and saw that his cloudy eyes clearly showed some confusion and lack of clarity.
Shi Nian's heart felt as if it were being tightly gripped by a pair of large hands.
It hurts so much it hurts to the core.
A little while later, Shi Nian went outside.
The typhoon is getting closer and closer.
The trees were being blown around by the wind, making a "whooshing" sound.
A gust of wind swept in from a different direction.
Shi Nian's hair was blown around by the wind.
But the wind made Shi Nian's mind even clearer.
So what should she do now?
......
Perhaps it's because the sisters cherish each other.
While Shi Nian was facing a crisis, Qin Yajing was also facing a crisis.
