Chapter 9: Suicide for a Woman

He Wanci was at a loss for a moment, paused, and said, "Mother, I will definitely take care of myself." You too, take care of yourself. Otherwise, I would have been out that day, and I would have been thinking about you, and I wouldn't have had a good time at all!" she didn't know why her mother was so sad, and she laughed and wanted to make her more relaxed.

"Not in the future, in the future, we can do whatever Wanci wants, don't worry about my mother, my mother must take care of herself. The second lady touched the scar on He Wanci's neck again, "In the future, no matter what, you must protect yourself." His voice grew weaker and weaker, as if he was talking to himself.

The faintly visible scar on He Wanci's neck was there on the day Yi Yuyan sent someone to send the divorce letter, but she was always reluctant to say a word about the reason for the divorce and how the wound appeared.

He Wanci nodded firmly and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely do it." ”

Suddenly, the second lady seemed to remember something, took her hand away from her daughter's neck, and looked slightly flustered: "What about Xiaotong, why isn't she in the house?"

"It was a bit hot, so I asked her to help me go to the kitchen to get some ice. He Wanci replied.

"Then you have a good rest, I'll go back first. She stood up and walked out.

He Wanci sent her mother to the door of the house, and the second lady suddenly turned around and hugged her daughter, saying, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it, really." You just have to take care of yourself in the future. ”

"Well, okay, I will. He Wanci gently hugged her mother's shoulder, she felt that her mother was a little strange, and even her voice trembled a little, but she couldn't say anything strange.

In fact, He Wanci is really completely relieved, and it can be seen from what his father said to the eldest lady yesterday that even if the eldest lady does not act, he will definitely solve this matter. But her mother was a little abnormal today, which made He Wanci a little worried. She continued to return to the window, remembering what her mother had said.

It didn't take long for Xiaotong to come in from outside the house. "Miss, the second lady said she wanted to eat osmanthus soup, let me take you to buy some more. Xiaotong put the ice cubes on the side of the fruit plate on the table and said to He Wanci.

"Do you want to go now?" He Wanci wondered, her mother had just come out of her room, why did she go to Xiaotong to eat osmanthus soup?

The second lady said, go immediately, and if it is hot, bring an umbrella to cover the sun. Xiao Tong said while going to the bookshelf to get an umbrella.

He Wanci doesn't have anything special to eat, so she can't understand her mother's love and persistence for osmanthus soup, but since her mother wants to eat, she is idle, so she went to buy it with Xiaotong.

The weather was hot, and the two didn't delay much on the street, went to yesterday's pastry shop to buy osmanthus soup, and went straight home.

Seeing that the people in the house looked flustered and running around, He Wanci casually stopped a maid and asked the reason, "Miss, the second lady committed suicide, and the house is preparing for the future." The maid glanced at He Wanci, lowered her head and said in a panic.

"Nonsense, second lady, you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that I tell the master that you can't eat and walk around!" Before He Wanci could speak, Xiaotong scolded sharply, and then said something about the rules and decency to the maid.

He Wanci only felt sarcastic in her heart: the status of the concubine is really not high, and her life can be laughed at by her subordinates, so she did not stop Xiaotong when she scolded the maid. Carrying the osmanthus soup into his mother's room, he found that there was no one inside. Suddenly thinking of the maid's words, He Wanci began to be a little faintly worried, and hurriedly put the osmanthus soup in his hand on the stone table outside the house, came out to hold an attendant, and learned that his mother was in his father's room. She ran as fast as she could.
