From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 536: Chapter 532: When the Wall Falls, Everyone Pushes (Three Updates)

Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng went along the direction of the village entrance to search.

There are three roads at the village entrance: one leading to the town, which can be ruled out, as Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng just came back and didn’t encounter Little Zhi and Yuanbao.

The remaining two roads, one leads to Tie Dao Village, where Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng’s dry land is located.

The second road leads towards Huang Family Village, a direction with many mountains, which would be difficult to search if the two children really went there.

When leaving, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng asked Yu Si Niang, and Mu Dajiang and Mu Xiaxia went in the direction of Huang Family Village, while Mu Dalang took the route to Tie Dao Village.

Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng chose to search towards Tie Dao Village, calling out Little Zhi and Yuanbao’s names all along the way.

There was no response along the way; instead, they encountered Mu Dalang returning.

Mu Dalang saw Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng and rushed up excitedly.

”Shuangshuang, Fengzi, have Yuanbao and Little Zhi returned?”

”No, Big Cousin, haven’t you seen them either?” Mu Shuangshuang asked anxiously.

”No, I searched and called out all the way, but didn’t see anyone, I went to Tie Dao Village and asked, they said no one had seen Little Zhi and Yuanbao.”

Mu Dalang truly made an effort to find them, yet he couldn’t find them the whole way.

Just when Yu Si Niang went to ask the Old Mu Family if they had seen the children, everyone said they hadn’t.

When asked to help search, the group from the Old Mu Family was reluctant to go out and search. Mu Dalang was the first to stand up; Shuangshuang had been kind to him, and he had to help her.

”Big Cousin, you should go back first, Fengzi and I will continue searching.”

”How could I go back? I’ll search in the direction of Huang Family Village and call Bitao and Huang Family’s three brothers along. Strength comes in numbers, Shuangshuang, Fengzi, don’t be too anxious, at least the two kids are together, with company, they won’t be scared!” Mu Dalang said.

Mu Shuangshuang nodded gratefully.

After separating from Mu Dalang, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng searched even more thoroughly, looking through bushes, under trees, but still found no one.

Asking around yielded no sightings of Little Zhi and Xiao Han either.

Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng almost went mad with anxiety; no matter how clever Yuanbao was, he was still just a child.

Would Little Zhi cry?

Could they have been abducted?

Various concerns arose, and Mu Shuangshuang felt increasingly powerless.

Lu Yuanfeng noticed Shuangshuang’s emotional distress and suddenly felt upset as well.

”Shuangshuang, Yuanbao is sturdy and clever, he can handle anything himself, don’t worry too much.”

Worrying is inevitable, considering Yuanbao and Little Zhi are both young children.

But worrying won’t change anything.

After searching like this for an hour, the sky darkened, and the children still hadn’t returned.

Yu Si Niang had long asked the villagers to help search; everyone treated this matter as their own, except those shameless folk from the Old Mu Family, who acted as if nothing happened.

They continued eating and drinking as usual.

Midway, Mr. Mu wanted to inquire about matters of the third branch but was stopped by Old Mrs. Mu.

Old Mrs. Mu said, ”Why bother with the third branch’s issues? Didn’t hear that Little Zhi went out with that chubby kid from the Old Lu Family, who knows if they just found it fun outside and didn’t return.”

”What nonsense are you talking? Don’t you know what kind of a child Little Zhi is?”

In Mr. Mu’s impression, Little Zhi may be young but is very sensible.

”What do I know? I know she’s young and unwise, running around with a man and getting lost!” Old Mrs. Mu said irritably.

”Shut your mouth, you old hag, a madwoman, nothing good comes out of your mouth!”

After cursing, Mr. Mu saw Mu Dazhong hiding aside, as did Mrs. Lin, fearing being involved.

Mr. Mu was furious.

”What are you doing, isn’t Little Zhi your niece? Isn’t the third branch part of the Old Mu Family?” Mr. Mu shouted.

”Dad, don’t meddle unnecessarily; hasn’t the third branch always been capable? Let them find the children themselves, I’m injured after all,” Mu Dazhong said pitifully.

”Dad, I’m still pregnant, if something happens during the search, it’s a grandson you’d be losing, Little Zhi may be valuable but can’t compare to a grandson!” Mrs. Lin joined in jeering.

Mu Danian wasn’t around, lying motionless in the house, those two bloody holes on his butt were enough to trouble him, but he wasn’t present, and the words from the two brothers and sister-in-law were unbearably nasty.

”Animals, you are simply heartless creatures. Wasn’t it Shuang who found Gou Dan when he was lost?”

Mr. Mu was bitterly disappointed; these were kin to the third branch, people say that siblings remain connected despite disputes, yet...

”Alright, stop blaming the second brother and sister-in-law; they aren’t wrong. Bad people deserve bad outcomes; didn’t they take an acre of fertile land from us when searching for Gou Dan?

If you want us to search, sure, return the fertile land intact, otherwise, forget it!”

Old Mrs. Mu was still brooding over the land Mu Shuangshuang had taken back then.

But she never considered that the land was given to protect Mu Zhenzhen back then, and had nothing to do with Gou Dan at all.

”You’re a venomous woman, if we can’t find the third branch’s child, I’ll divorce you, this wicked woman!” Mr. Mu said angrily, storming out of the courtyard.

Mr. Mu is a person with many faults, partial, protective of his favorites, yet he valued a harmonious big family.

Especially after talking to Shuangshuang those few times, Mr. Mu had been reflecting, wondering if some family members had grown crooked.

Such twisted minds.

Regardless of if they’re children of the Old Mu Family, even if they were someone else’s children, one should help out, put on a show, soothe one’s conscience.

Mr. Mu went directly to the third branch; by then Mu Dashan wasn’t in bed anymore, the body improved after the weather cooled, and for today’s issue, Yu Si Niang didn’t dare to tell Mu Dashan.

Afraid that Mu Dashan would get anxious and cause problems.

Yet Mr. Mu didn’t know, he rushed into the house and directly asked Mu Dashan, still weaving baskets: ”Old Third, have Little Zhi and Yuanbao been found?”

Mu Dashan’s bamboo strips pierced all into his flesh, blood bubbled out.

Mr. Mu suddenly panicked, realizing Yu Si Niang hadn’t told the third son about this matter.

”Dad, what are you saying, what’s wrong with Little Zhi and Yuanbao?” The man’s eyes widened more than usual.

He stared anxiously at the old man, his eyes full of worry for his children.

In Mu Dashan’s eyes, Yuanbao was also his child; now hearing his children were in trouble, how could Mu Dashan not be anxious?

”Old Third, you don’t need to worry about this matter; Shuang and Si Niang are out searching. You need to take care and not get worked up!”
