Chapter 203 Tracy is missing
Chapter 204 Tracy is missing
Early the next morning, Fang Qing followed his uncle to the street to prepare daily necessities for the new house. However, Tracy, who usually loved to go shopping, insisted on staying at home.
"My dear, I'm so tired. I haven't had a good rest these days. You guys go today. I'll stay at home with my aunt."
Hearing what Tracy said, Fang Deli suddenly felt that his young wife had grown up and actually knew to accompany the elderly, so he nodded and agreed immediately. Old Mrs. Fang on the side was also happy to have more contact with her future daughter-in-law, and waved her hand to signal them to leave quickly.
"You guys go quickly, I want to talk to Xiao Cui."
But when Fang Qing and Fang Deli were about to leave, Tracy suddenly grabbed Fang Deli and told him, "I want you to go to the high-end store in the south of the city to buy it. Don't try to fool me with those cheap goods."
Fang Deli dared not disobey his wife's order. He nodded repeatedly and promised to choose the best-looking and most expensive furniture.
Because most of the things bought today were furniture, electrical appliances and daily necessities, Fang Qing accompanied his uncle to visit many stores and finally got everything ready.
Just when the two were too tired to even stand up and were about to go home, Fang's mother made a panicked phone call.
"Come back quickly, something happened at home!"
After receiving the call, the two went home immediately, and were shocked by what they saw as soon as they entered the house!
The house was turned upside down, many boxes and cabinets were violently smashed open, clothes and other items were thrown all over the floor, and it was a mess.
Fang's mother was sitting on the sofa comforting the frightened old lady Fang. When she saw her son coming back, old lady Fang immediately raised her voice and burst into tears.
"Son, you're finally back! Mom has suffered a lot!"
Fang Deli went forward to comfort his mother, and then called his wife out of habit, but he didn't see the familiar figure for a long time.
"Second sister-in-law, what is going on? Where is Tracy? Why is it that only mom is here? Have you called the police?"
Fang's mother nodded. "I've called the police. They'll be here soon."
Soon, Director Wen brought a team of police officers into the yard and asked Mrs. Fang about the specific situation.
"I was lying in a rocking chair basking in the sun when I heard someone knocking on the door. My daughter-in-law went to open the door, but suddenly several big men came in and tied us up without saying a word! Police comrades, you must help us. These people not only beat me, but also robbed all the valuables in the house. My daughter-in-law is also missing. They dared to do this in broad daylight. You must seek justice for us..."
The police then checked with Fang Qing’s mother the lost property in the house. Together with the passbook, jewelry and some valuables, the amount of loss was as high as more than 100,000 yuan. The police quickly opened a case for investigation.
However, during the investigation, Director Wen discovered that wherever the furniture was pried open, it was the place where valuables and precious jewelry were stored. Although the house looked like it had been completely turned over, in fact, other places had not been touched at all.
From this, Director Wen deduced, "There is a high possibility that there is an insider involved, otherwise the thief would not have found the place where you stored your money so accurately."
Hearing this, Fang Qing immediately thought of the missing Tracy. She told Director Wen about her previous suspicions, but she didn't expect that the old uncle who trusted her would yell at her.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? You are not a police officer. Don't talk nonsense without facts! Your aunt was kidnapped and her life or death is unknown. How can you slander her like this at this time?"
This was the first time in Fang Qing's life that he was scolded so harshly by his uncle. He felt very aggrieved.
"Uncle, I know you don't believe me, but what I said is all true. That night she was sneaking around outside and talking on the phone with someone unknown. She always kept an eye on where we kept our money. And how could it be such a coincidence that robbers came to our house when we were not at home and took her away as well? Comparing everything, she is a suspect!"
Seeing Fang Qing and Fang Deli quarreling, Old Mrs. Fang, who had been groaning on the sofa, immediately struggled to sit up, pointing at Fang Qing's nose and starting to curse.
"How do you talk to your uncle? He's your elder, and you're yelling at him like that? Your aunt is missing, but you're not worried and are blaming her for it. Is this what you learned in college? It's really not presentable. I've always seen you as a loser. Even if your family has money, what can it do? You're still so immoral!"
Fang's mother, Liu Chunxia, was used to being disliked by her mother-in-law and didn't think much of it. But when she saw her mother-in-law scolding her daughter like this in front of everyone, she immediately became angry.
"Mom, you should speak reasonably. Such a big thing happened at home, and Qingqing was just cooperating with the police to state the facts. Besides, our family was fine before. How come our family was robbed just a few days after Tracy came? Anyone would think something is wrong, right? How can Qingqing be so immoral? Even if you look down on our family, you can't wrongly accuse us like this, right?"
In Old Mrs. Fang's impression, her second daughter-in-law has always been a soft persimmon and easy to bully. She never expected that this stupid daughter-in-law would actually refute her in public.
"Oh my god, this is terrible! This family has teamed up to humiliate us, the poor orphans and widows! Your second branch has been living a good life these past two years, and you don't even treat me as a human being anymore!"
Fang's mother was so angry that she trembled all over when she heard this. "Mom, you should have a conscience! You know exactly how I treat you! You wanted to eat roast chicken in the middle of the night, and I rode my bicycle out to buy it for you in the cold winter. You said you didn't like the babysitter's care, so I quit my job and stayed at home to take care of you.
I, Liu Chunxia, have never taken such good care of my own mother. I dare not say that I have done my best for you, mother-in-law, but at least I have fulfilled my responsibilities as a child. Over the years, I don't ask you to remember my kindness, but you can't slander me and wrong me like this, right? People should have a conscience!"
Old Mrs. Fang blushed with shame at what her daughter-in-law said. She immediately threw away her crutches, sat on the ground and started to act like a spoiled child.
"Come and see, they are bullying an old woman like me... Deli, I am so sad. Now that you are back, please take me away. If I stay here any longer, they will kill me..."
Fang Deli was worried about his wife's disappearance. He became very annoyed when he heard his mother say this.
"Mom, can you please stop making a fuss? Second sister-in-law takes care of you every day, eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping. Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard. Please stop making trouble here!"
Old Mrs. Fang was stunned by her youngest son's words, but the words had already been spoken and there was no reason to go back on her word, so she gritted her teeth and carried on.
But Fang's mother had endured enough over the years, so she immediately stood up and wiped away her tears.
"Okay, since Mom is determined, I will move for you today!"
Hearing her daughter-in-law's words, Mrs. Fang was stunned.
