Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 268

This situation was too unreasonable. If there had been strangers passing by, they would have suspected human traffickers.

But since there were no strangers, it showed that it was someone from the nearby area or from the village. Sheng Fei was particularly anxious. After searching for a while, she and Lu Ting returned empty-handed.

When they got home, Lu Jiefang, Xu Yuxia, Old Mrs. Lu, and Lu Jianguo were waiting for them at the door.

After all, last time when Jixiang and Ruyi went missing, Lu Ting and Sheng Fei had searched with Lu Jiefang. So this time, when Lu Sanya went missing, Lu Jiefang and the others also joined the search. However, after searching for a long time, they still hadn’t found her.

How could a little child just go missing?

Was it possible she encountered some danger or fell into a ravine?

Sheng Fei suggested that she and Lu Ting search again, specifically looking around the hills.

They not only went up the mountain but also checked the hillsides to see if there were any traps set by hunters, wondering if Lu Sanya had fallen into a hole somewhere.

But after searching for a long time, they couldn’t find her. By the time Sheng Fei and Lu Ting returned without success, it was already late at night.

The two little guys Lu Da and Lu Er were feeling a bit lost, while Lu Xiaosi and Lu Xiaowu had already been crying on the side. No one knew why Lu Sanya was missing this time.

At first, she had clearly said she wanted to go work with Lu Er. Even if Lu Sanya didn’t want to work, she wouldn’t just sneak away. This didn’t make sense at all.

Moreover, Lu Sanya didn’t have any conflicts with Sheng Fei. If Lu Sanya had run away in anger, that would be even less likely.

“Think carefully, was there anything unusual about Lu Sanya when she went out? Could she have run away from home?”

Lu Ting asked Sheng Fei about the details regarding Lu Sanya. Sheng Fei had to clearly tell Lu Ting everything.

When Lu Sanya first went out with Lu Er, everything seemed fine. How could she suddenly go missing?

“No, at that time Lu Sanya looked happy, wanting to help me, so I let her go with Lu Er.

I said, Second Brother, think about it. When Sanya said she wanted to go play with that girl, what was her expression like? How long did she play? Do you have any idea?

I already asked that girl, and she indeed played for a short while before her mother called her home. She haven’t seen Sanya after that.

Hey, if Lu Sanya didn’t go home, she should have gone to find Second Brother, so how could she be missing?

Moreover, the people in this village are extremely familiar with each other. Lu Sanya grew up here and is very familiar with the surroundings. If she had accidentally gotten lost, that doesn’t seem quite right.”

While Sheng Fei and Lu Ting were analyzing the situation, Old Mrs. Lu and Xu Yuxia were watching coldly.

Old Mrs. Lu pointed at Sheng Fei and scolded her, claiming that this stepmother was neglecting the child on purpose.

“What do you mean Lu Sanya wanted to work? I say it’s definitely this stepmother who forced her. Maybe you insisted that Sanya go work, and she didn’t want to, which is why she’s missing. She must have left home out of anger.

I say, how can you be so heartless? Is this how you act as a stepmother? No wonder people say stepmothers are not as caring as biological mothers. All stepmothers in the world are the same. If they’re not their own children, they don’t care.”
