Chapter 951: Chapter 951 Ms. Tang

Shu Yu seemed not to hear what he said, suddenly raising his head, “Wait a minute, what about Old Man Cui’s granddaughter?”

Young Master Jiang was taken aback, suddenly recalling.

Yes, where is Old Man Cui’s granddaughter? She was just a five-year-old little girl. The old man has been dead for two days, where has the little girl gone?

Young Master Jiang immediately went to the courtyard gate and asked the villagers still standing there, “Has anyone seen Old Man Cui’s little granddaughter?”

Everyone was stunned and shook their heads in unison.

The woman next door slapped her thigh, “Is she not at home? Could something have happened?”

Shu Yu made a prompt decision, “We’ll check inside the house, you call for people to look around nearby.”

The people at the door quickly hurried off, then they could be seen knocking on doors one by one, calling everyone at home to come out and look for that little girl.

In no time, everyone who was free went out to search.

Meanwhile, Shu Yu and the others turned the Cui Family’s house upside down, even checking the rice jar and small boxes, but found nothing.

Shu Yu walked back into the courtyard, looking at the woman who was tied up.

Young Master Jiang, sweating heavily, approached her and said, “We can only ask her now.”

“Yes, Ying Xi, wake her up.”

This woman’s surname was Tang, originally the daughter-in-law of the Wang Family.

According to Eldest Uncle, the Wang Family’s son had one blind eye, was very self-conscious, and rarely went out to play with others. By chance, he met Ms. Tang, who unlike others, didn’t look down on him but encouraged and affirmed him.

This gradually made the Wang Family’s son happier, and later when the Wang Family wanted to find him a wife, he specifically asked for Ms. Tang.

The Wang Family went to propose, and Ms. Tang agreed without a word.

The Wang Family had some resources, and because their son was disabled, they gave a bride price of ten taels of silver, which was already very high in Ms. Tang’s village, where ordinary families would only give three to five taels.

But the Tang Family was not well-off, and Ms. Tang had no dowry.

However, the Wang Family parents took good care of this daughter-in-law, as long as she treated their son well, they asked for nothing more.

Who knew that three months after getting married, Ms. Tang found the Wang Family’s money stash, took all of the Wang Family’s money and eloped with someone, disappearing completely.

The Wang Family parents were furious, and the Wang Family’s son, who was already self-conscious, now wouldn’t even leave his room. On one hand, he was shocked and saddened by learning Ms. Tang had another motive for marrying him, and on the other hand, blamed himself for bringing a wolf into the house, resulting in his parents being swindled of their life’s savings.

The Wang Family went to find the Tang Family, only to learn that Ms. Tang’s parents were not good to her, planning to sell her for money as she grew up. Ms. Tang herself said she wanted to find a husband and promised there would be a bride price of ten taels.

The Tang Family thought if the other side were willing to give ten taels as a bride price, the family must be well-off, and once the daughter was married, they could even visit and benefit, so they agreed.

Who knew Ms. Tang wouldn’t settle down after marriage, eloping with her in-laws’ money and then even stealing all her own family’s money.

However, the Tang Family was poor, so even if they were stolen from, their loss wasn’t as severe as the Wang Family’s.

Now Ms. Tang has been found and even became a murderer, and it’s unknown whether she regrets what she did.

Ying Xi woke her up, and Ms. Tang frowned slightly, uncomfortable. She opened her eyes, and upon seeing the scene before her, her face changed drastically, instinctively wanting to flee.

As she moved, she realized she was tied up, and not far away, Li Xiaoshan’s corpse still lay there stiffly on the ground.
