"Dad, there's one thing I haven't told you yet!"
"What's going on?"
"That Niu Er told me that he saw my second sister during the day, and my second sister also saw him with my mother, but she didn't tell us when she came back!"
"And this matter? It's impossible. She is your second sister, and that is his or her mother. How could she just watch and do nothing?"
"Dad, I didn't believe it at first. I thought my second sister would never do that. But Niu Er was very sure that it was Chen Mengyao he saw, and it just so happened that Chen Mengyao came back on a bicycle at that time, so I hesitated!"
"You mean your second sister saw your mother being beaten by that man, and she didn't dare to tell anyone when she came back!"
"yes!"
Father Shen took a cigarette and started smoking. Shen Yaoyang actually began to doubt this matter, so it might be true!
But why? Why would she do this? That was her mother, who had raised her for over twenty years, and then she got beaten, and she pretended not to see it. That's impossible.
"I don't think this is true. Like you said, Niu Er is not a good person. He might be trying to sow discord!"
"No way, at that time, my second sister hadn't come yet, and he said a young woman saw them. Later, when my second sister came, he said it was my second sister!"
Father Shen nodded, but he was not sure if it was Shen Mengyao. After all, he had raised her for 20 years and treated her like his own daughter. How could he not have feelings for her?
"By the way, did you find any money on your mother?"
"No, I looked through her clothes when I came back, but there was nothing. I wonder if my second sister can find any other money when she gives her a bath!"
"Okay, about the money. If we can't find it, we have to report it to the police. It's a lot of money, we can't just say it's gone. Could it be that Niu Er took it?"
"No, if Niu Er had taken the 2,000 yuan, he would have returned to the countryside long ago. My eldest sister gave him 500 yuan, and he was so happy!"
Father Shen heard that it was not Niu Er who took it, so where did the money go?
Shen Mengyao finally finished bathing Shen's mother. She was so tired that she was out of breath. After all, she was the only woman in the family. The task of bathing Shen's mother had to be given to her. Although she was reluctant, she didn't dare to refute it. After all, they still doubted her, so she had to perform well!
After changing Shen's mother into clean clothes, Shen Mengyao led Shen's mother out!
"Dad, brother, I've given Mom a bath and changed her into clean clothes!"
"Second sister, thank you for your hard work!"
"It's not hard. Isn't this what I should do? My parents finally found me, so I need to be quiet."
"Second sister, did you see, is there any money in mom's pocket?"
"No, I didn't see any money in her pocket. Oh, now I remember, maybe that guy called Niu Er took it away?"
"No, if he took the money, he would have left long ago and would not have stayed in Huaxi Town!"
"But if he didn't take it, who took the money? 2,000 yuan is a lot of money."
Shen Yaoyang became suspicious when he saw Shen Mengyao saying this, and he didn't know why he doubted every word she said!
"Second sister, did you really not see it?"
"Of course I didn't see it. How could I lie? If you don't believe me, go and see. After I came out of that room just now, I didn't go back to my own room. If I had money, wouldn't you have seen it a long time ago? Dad, look at Yaoyang still suspecting me. I have never lacked money since I was a child. What would I do with the money?"
Father Shen nodded!
"Since the money is missing, let's report it to the police. 2,000 yuan is no small sum. Your mother saved for years to save that much!"
When Chen Mengyao heard about reporting to the police, her heart skipped a beat. What if she was caught? Would she be locked up?
She is so young and doesn't want to go in there, but she really took the money. What if the police come and find out?
"Why should we call the police? Maybe Mom left it somewhere else in the house and can't find it. Let's search the house thoroughly tomorrow, maybe she'll show up."
"Okay then, let's look for it again tomorrow. Everyone is tired today, so let's go back to our rooms and rest!"
Father Shen took Mother Shen back to his room, and the other two siblings also returned to their rooms.
After returning to her room, Shen Mengyao was restless. After all, the money was with her. She was really afraid that Shenfu Shen or Shen Yaoyang would report it to the police at any time. If she was really caught, wouldn't that be the end? If she was arrested for the crime of thief, how embarrassing it would be.
But she was reluctant to just take out the money like this. After all, it was only 2,000 yuan, and no one would give her so much money again in the future!
What should she do? What should she do? She had no other choice but to go and talk to Chen Guozhi.
But it was already dark, and if she went out rashly, it would definitely arouse suspicion, so she stayed at home, feeling very uncomfortable and restless!
Shen Yaoyang was still hesitating whether to report the incident to the police. After all, 2,000 yuan wasn't just two yuan. Any family would consider it a valuable asset, a salary that an average person could earn in several years.
What's more, Shen's mother had originally saved this money for him to go to college. Although he didn't need it, she still wanted to keep it for Shen's father and mother's retirement. Now that the money is gone, it is impossible to just let it go unaccounted for. At least we have to report it to the police to look for it.
Father Shen asked Mother Shen to lie down on the bed and rest, but Mother Shen stared with her eyes wide open, not knowing what to do. Seeing the once unruly Mother Shen become like this, Father Shen felt very sad, but what could he do? She was stimulated and didn't know when she would be better.
"Where did you put the money?"
Mother Shen looked at Father Shen blankly, as if she didn't understand what he was saying!
"Hey, it's useless to tell you, you don't know anything!"
Mother Shen walked to the closet and took out the little thing where she kept her money!
"money!"
"You know your money is here, but where's the rest?"
"No!"
"Impossible! We still have 2,000 yuan at home. How could there be nothing?"
Mother Shen shook her head, because she didn’t put the money anywhere else, so it was impossible for her to know where the money was.
Father Shen only thought that she forgot about it after she was stimulated, because he always felt that the money should still be at home and it was impossible to lose it!
Chen Mengyao was really restless. She couldn't stay still at ease no matter what. After all, if she was caught with 2,000 yuan, it would be a serious crime!
No, she must find a way to send the money to Shen's mother's house, no matter where it is, as long as it is not on her!
After thinking about it, she started to act!
"Dad, are you in the house? Have you and Mom slept yet?"
"He didn't come in!"
