An elderly woman sold her grandson because she said she opposed her daughter's marriage.

Wu, of Minhou, Fujian province, realized his son disappeared days after the boy's mother sent him to stay with the grandmother in Xiapu county.

After an investigation, police got the grandma to confess that she sold the boy to a couple because the son-in-law failed to give her a bride price.

Police found the boy in another county.
