"Mom, stop wailing for now, we need to quickly find our younger sister."

The bride price money definitely needs to be taken back; it can’t be allowed to leave with a married daughter.

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen helped Mrs. Shen up and inquired about Guo Jingling’s address from the brigade leader.

The brigade leader said, "That man is Ma Qingshan’s comrade. I heard his family lives in the county, but we don’t know the exact address. If you want to know, you have to ask at the commune. The address should be left when Shen Zhiqing transferred her household registration."

Upon hearing this, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Mrs. Shen hurried to the Red Flag Commune.

At the commune, the two indeed got the Guo Family’s address.

By evening, the two were standing at the gate of the Old Guo Family’s courtyard.

After learning that Shen Yuanchun was divorced and kicked out of the Old Guo Family, Mrs. Shen and Eldest Sister-in-law Shen’s dreams of getting rich fell through once again. Heartbroken, the two sat at the Old Guo Family’s place crying and wailing, demanding the Guo Family compensate their daughter.

Mrs. Guo, still holding a grudge over her son giving a thousand yuan to Shen Yuanchun during the divorce, immediately grabbed their clothes upon seeing Shen Yuanchun’s mother, demanding the money back.

Mrs. Shen benefited nothing, but instead found herself in trouble.

Mrs. Shen, of course, wouldn’t comply, nor did she have the money.

She and Mrs. Guo started fighting. Seeing this, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen rushed in to help. When Father Guo came home from work, he saw his wife fighting with two unfamiliar women at the courtyard gate, with a crowd of onlookers around, yet no one stepped in to help.

Father Guo hurriedly went up, "Stop, stop, if you don’t, I’ll report to the police."

The three women stopped upon hearing about reporting to the police.

However, later they all went to the police station. Mrs. Guo wanted to accuse Shen Yuanchun of fraud, taking away two thousand yuan from their family, while Mrs. Shen wanted to find her daughter, to find Shen Yuanchun’s whereabouts.

...

In the suburbs of the county, Shen Yuanchun was leisurely lying on a beanbag watching a live stream. 007 asked her, "Host, when do you think they’ll find you?"

"I guess they won’t find me." Yuan Chun popped a pine nut into her mouth, "When I bought the house, I mentally suggested to the staff at the property bureau not to reveal my whereabouts."

When transferring the household registration from the Old Guo Family’s place, she also gave a mental suggestion.

So, neither the Shen Family nor the Guo Family should think they can find her.

Mrs. Shen only took two days off work. When the police couldn’t find her the next day, Mrs. Shen had to go back to work, leaving Eldest Sister-in-law Shen to continue searching. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Two thousand yuan is a significant sum of money. Whether it’s Mrs. Shen, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen, or Mrs. Guo, they all want to get this money.

Mrs. Guo accused Shen Yuanchun of fraud, but after investigating by the comrades at the police station, it was clear that Shen Yuanchun didn’t commit fraud, and the money was given willingly by the Guo Family, as observed in person by the comrades at the civil affairs bureau before Guo Jingling and Shen Yuanchun signed the divorce certificate.

However, Mrs. Guo insisted that the money was deceitfully taken by Shen Yuanchun and persisted in asking the police comrades to help her retrieve it.

Hence, several groups of people were searching for Shen Yuanchun.

But it was as if Shen Yuanchun had vanished; the entire county was turned upside down, yet she still couldn’t be found.

Shen Yuanchun had no job, and no one knew where she had settled.

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen, after staying in a guesthouse for half a month, couldn’t bear the expense anymore and had to return home.

Mrs. Guo had to work and was also looking for people, exhausted after half a month, her not fully healed leg injury got swollen from overexertion, but she didn’t want to give up.

Every time she thought about the two thousand yuan her family just lost to Shen Yuanchun, she would feel so heartbroken she couldn’t eat or sleep well, even lacking the energy to work.
