Oh Lord, sounds like my mother's family.

OP, you have 2 options:

1. Decide you want to investigate this matter and consult with an attorney. It will be very difficult if the will can't be found, and after 2 years, your mother has had plenty of time to destroy or hide any letters of intent, sell whatever it is your grandmother wanted to have, etc. 
I hate to bring this up, but are you reasonably certain your grandmother did make your inheritance official in a will-like document? Some people like to play around.
Smoother sailing if the will IS there, since then it is only a matter of threatening to sue, or actually doing so if the inheritance is large enough. Don't worry about alienating your mother, she's not worth tip-toeing around.

2. Decide it's not worth the hassle, and do your best to forget about it (easier if the inheritance was not going to be large anyway). I would still distance yourself from your mother. She sounds unbearably controlling and abusive.

And make you own way, without any expectations from your parents - all they want is for you to kow-tow for money.
