The reason Liu was so concerned about them was because Jiang Xiaoyu had told her about Li Daqiang and the others' situation, and she was now afraid that something might happen to them.
How could two perfectly fine people go on for so long without returning?
An Wanwan and the others spoke almost simultaneously: "How long have they been gone?"
Liu thought about it carefully.
She looked at An Wanwan and the others and said, "It's probably late Shen Shi (3-5 PM), almost You Shi (5-7 PM)."
The hour of You (酉) is around 5 PM.
It's around 7 PM now.
Qingyun Town is quite a distance from their village, and it takes about the same amount of time to go there and back.
An Wanwan made a decision: "Okay, let's go out of the village and see. If they still haven't returned, we'll go to the town to check."
Su Yueniang and the others had no objections.
Su Yueniang stayed at home to look after An Dafu and the others, while An Ke, An Cheng, and An Wanwan went out to search for them.
They didn't see Jiang Xiaoyu and the others even after reaching the village entrance.
They walked a little further out, looked around but saw no one in the distance, so An Wanwan decided to go to town to check.
"I'll go rent an oxcart!"
Just as Liu was about to run away.
An Wanwan stopped her: "Aunt Liu, you still have two sons at home. They are still young. You should go back and take care of them. My brother and I will take the oxcart to town ourselves. Don't worry, we will do our best to find Xiaoyu and the others."
"It's alright, my husband is back today."
Liu quickly left and rented an oxcart.
Her husband was a sexist and even more annoyed than she was.
Otherwise, why would she need to follow An Wanwan and the others around?
An Wanwan didn't let An Cheng go, since Su Yueniang was the only one in the family who was mobile.
An Cheng was an obedient person; he watched them walk away and then went home.
On An Wanwan's side.
They hadn't even walked to the side of the road when they saw Li Daqiang and his group walking home.
Upon seeing them, Liu jumped off the oxcart excitedly and blocked their path, demanding, "Xiaoyu and the others are missing! Did you take them away?"
Yang Cuicui rolled her eyes at Liu Shi: "Liu Shi, what's wrong with you? What does their disappearance have to do with us!"
"that is."
Li Daqiang and the others echoed this sentiment.
An Wanwan and the others haven't said anything yet.
Li Jiuqin, who was driving the oxcart, suddenly noticed that Li Daqiang's daughter from both families was not with them, and asked, "Li Daqing, Li Daqiang, where have you been these days? Where is your daughter?"
As soon as he said that...
Li Daqing and the others reacted very strongly.
"What business is it of yours what we call our daughter!"
"That's none of your business. Use your time to drive your oxcart properly, and don't tip it over..."
"..."
Li Jiujin was annoyed by their scolding: "We're neighbors, and I'm just trying to show you some concern, why are you all so fierce? Are you even Dazhuang's family? You don't even care that he's gone missing!"
"Ignore him, let's go!"
Li Daqiang started walking away.
An Wanwan and An Miaomiao exchanged a glance, then jumped off the oxcart and blocked their way.
"You're not leaving today until you explain yourself!"
Li Daqiang snorted and said, "What do you two little brats want to do? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid of you. Don't think you're so great just because you've taken some random guy as your master..."
"Wow, this is really something!"
An Miaomiao raised her foot and kicked it.
She's quick with her feet.
Li Daqiang was unable to dodge in time and was kicked away.
Yang Cuicui was furious and lunged at An Miaomiao, yelling, "You brat, you dare kick my man! I'll fight you to the death!"
