Chapter Twenty-Three: Acting in a Bitter Love Drama

Seeing that there was nothing new to listen to, He Wanci closed the window, leaned against the wall, and closed her eyes to recuperate.

During He Wanci's "eavesdropping", Xiaotong had already made the bed and went downstairs to get hot water. Seeing He Wanci leaning against the window and falling asleep, Xiaotong walked over, gently pushed He Wanci's shoulder, and whispered, "Miss, if you're tired, go to bed." Tomorrow morning, we have to rush to Fancheng early in the morning. ”

He Wanci didn't move, and said lazily: "You go to sleep first, I'll sit for a while." ”

Although He Wanci closed her eyes, she could hear that Xiao Tongzhen had walked to the bed, put her slippers on, and lay down.

This dead girl, do you dare to take a look at what a maid should look like? He Wanci cursed "viciously" in his heart.

In the next second, He Wanci suddenly opened his eyes, going to Fancheng tomorrow?

Quickly ran to the door, and said as he opened the door: "Xiaotong, I'll go out first, and I'll be back soon." ”

Seeing He Wanci in such a hurry, Xiaotong thought that something was wrong, and hurriedly put on his heels and went out.

When He Wanci went downstairs, he found that there were only eight people left at the table he had just observed, seven men and one woman. It's still the same as just now, the two tables are side by side, drinking and chatting, the difference is that the laughter is not as frequent and harsh as just now.

He Wanci walked to the table, put on a sad and miserable look, saluted the group slightly, and said, "Everyone, I'm bothered." My surname is Chu, and I am from Li County. In the middle of the year, his mother died of illness, and his father's health deteriorated. After some thought, my father decided to take me to Fancheng to join my relatives. But he didn't want to run all the way, and his father left. My maid Xiaotong and I are now desperate, so we can only continue to walk and go to Fancheng to join our uncle, but how easy is it to get to Fancheng? The road is so far away, and I and the maid don't know what to do. Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and today I stayed at this inn with my maid, and overheard that a few of them were going to Fancheng to do business. I hereby ask you, can you take the two of you with you, if you arrive safely in Fancheng, you will definitely remember your great kindness in this life. Afraid of being rejected, he hurriedly added, "We are responsible for the food, shelter and transportation of me and the maid on the road." I only want to be with you, and someone will take care of you on the way. ”

After finishing speaking, He Wanci looked around at the reflections of these eight people, some of them were pitying, some were surprised, but no one showed the slightest disgust. He Wanci breathed a sigh of relief and just waited for someone to answer.

After Xiao Tong rushed downstairs, she saw her own young lady "talking nonsense" here, and she wanted to laugh a little, but after thinking about it, the young lady took a lot of trouble to say that she must have her own reason for going to Fancheng with this group of people. So he quickly adjusted his facial expression, stepped forward and stood beside He Wanci, and said: "What my sister said is true, please do well, help us, we two women, if we go on like this, I don't know when we will be able to go to Fancheng, and on the way, I don't know if I will encounter any more dangers." Speaking of the back, his voice was a little choked.

He Wanci didn't expect that Xiaotong would come downstairs and be so powerful. Stretched out his hands around Xiaotong's shoulders, and lowered his head slightly. When most people see her, they will think that she is caused by sadness, but only He Wanci herself knows that she is afraid that she will suddenly laugh and be beaten to death or despised to death.
