Transmigrated into the fat wife of the future prime minister

Chapter 71 Returning Home
Before Xu Qingmeng left, she suddenly remembered something. The book seemed to have mentioned He Shi's identity. She turned around and said, "The matter of Er Laizi may be related to Mother."

After saying that, she walked out, leaving the rest for him to investigate on his own.

Gu Yunyi's face immediately darkened.

When Gu Hongxin was alive, he had talked to Gu Yunyi about how he found He Shi by the roadside. At that time, he wanted to take her home, but He Shi had lost her memory and had no idea where her home was or what her name was.

In the end, Gu Hongxin had no choice but to take her home and spend money to get her her current identity. Then, naturally, the two got married, and their relationship grew stronger and stronger until now.

However, Gu Hongxin was still searching for He's ex-boyfriend. Later, when Gu Yunyi grew up, Gu Hongxin did not hide it from him and told him about his mother.

Gu Yunyi had secretly searched for information about his mother, but he only found a few clues: his mother, Madam He, was originally from the capital. He could not find any further information after that.

Gu Yunyi had actually thought of this as well. He must have been the daughter of a wealthy family before, otherwise there would have been no clues. Right now, he was nothing, and he had to climb up the social ladder to find out more of the truth.

The Gu Family Restaurant had a sign that said it was temporarily closed. The next morning, many people who came to buy breakfast saw that the restaurant was still closed and began to discuss it. Then, someone who had witnessed the previous day told them what had happened, and everyone understood.

However, the fact that Er Laizi deliberately retaliated against Gu Family Restaurant and dared to injure someone in broad daylight quickly became a hot topic of conversation among everyone.

Those who were on good terms with the Gu family and only now learned of this matter all came to visit and comforted Madam He for a long time.

But there were also those who were at odds with the Gu family, such as the owner of the steamed bun shop, who also ran a restaurant like the Gu family. They all smiled and said, "This is karma, they deserve it!"

While Madam He was dealing with these matters at home, Gu Yunyi had already taken Xu Qingmeng by carriage to Xu Family Village.

For both Xu Qingmeng after she transmigrated and Gu Yunyi who married her, this was their first time visiting her parents' home.

Xu Qingmeng bought two large fish, two sets of clothes, shoes, and socks for her father, and also prepared two large pieces of fine cotton cloth to make clothes for her nephews and nieces. She also prepared a lot of pastries.

On the way, Xu Qingmeng and Gu Yunyi talked about the number of people in the Xu family.

“My eldest and second eldest brothers got married early, and my third brother got married late. I am the youngest in the family. Xun-ge’er is the eldest son of my eldest brother’s family. There is also Xin-wan. My eldest brother is upright, and my sister-in-law is also a charitable person.” Gu Yunyi nodded.

"My second brother's eldest son is Xinting, and then Baoli. My second sister-in-law is strong-willed, has some patriarchal ideas, and is even a bit greedy. In short, it's best to avoid her if possible."

Gu Yunyi understood something from these few words.

"My third brother's family only has one daughter, Xinyi, and his wife is also very kind."

Xujia Village is generally not wealthy, and few people own horse-drawn carriages. Only during the Spring Festival will a few daughters who have married elsewhere return in a horse-drawn carriage. But even so, it is something that many people talk about with great interest.

But today, neither a festival nor a New Year, an ordinary horse-drawn carriage entered Xujia Village and became the object of everyone's curiosity.

The coachman didn't know where the Xu family lived, so Xu Qingmeng came out and sat with him on the carriage shaft to give directions.

After walking for a short while, she saw several children standing barefoot in the mud not far away. When one of them stood up from the mud, Xu Qingmeng realized that it was Xinyi from her third brother's family. Looking at the girl, she was indeed as her father had said: a tomboy.

"Xinyi!" Xu Qingmeng called out from the carriage. She looked towards the carriage and saw Xu Qingmeng sitting there in a moon-white robe, looking just like a fairy.

Everyone in the Xu family is very good-looking. In the past, it was just that Xu Qingmeng was too fat, and many neighbors said that Xu Qingmeng was not a member of the Xu family.

After losing weight, Xu Qingmeng maintained the fine traditions of the Xu family, becoming a true beauty. She also exuded an air of elegance and confidence that made her captivating. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible for Lin Yichen, the young master of the Lin family, to fall in love with her at first sight.

Xu Qingmeng saw her standing there in a daze, and then she remembered that she used to be completely different from how she is now. Now that she has lost weight, only her father, her eldest brother, and her second brother have ever seen her.

“Xinyi, I’m your aunt!” Xu Qingmeng called out, waving her hand.

Xinyi blinked, and it took her a while to react. She subconsciously shook her head and said, "Impossible. You're not my aunt. You look like a fairy. My aunt is very fat and not as pretty or gentle as you."

Xu Qingmeng was both amused and exasperated: "You little rascal, can't you give your aunt any face in public?"

"Hey, wait a minute, why do you call me the same way my aunt calls me?" Xinyi tilted her head, looking at Xu Qingmeng with a puzzled expression, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and confusion.

Seeing this, Xu Qingmeng had no choice but to get off the carriage, walk towards her, and then grab her ear: "What, can't I be a little gentler with you? Do I have to be like this?"

"Ouch, Auntie, it hurts! I believe you, you really are my auntie!" Because whenever she was naughty, her auntie would pull her ear like this.

"Now I believe you. Look at yourself, all this mess. Can't you learn from Xinwan?" Xu Qingmeng said helplessly.

"Auntie, what's so great about my older sister? All she does is stay home and embroider all day. She never goes out to play. Besides, I'm still too young!"

"You're still so young, all you do is play. What will you be like when you grow up? Come on, come upstairs and sit down."

Xin Yi was initially delighted, but then she saw Gu Yunyi sitting in the car, looked down at herself covered in mud, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "We're almost home, Auntie, I won't sit here."

Xu Qingmeng said with a smile, "Now you know how to be dirty. You can sit on the carriage shaft and give this grandpa directions."

Xinyi was laughing so happily, her little legs dangling outside the carriage shaft, she was overjoyed.

Seeing her friends across the way looking at her with envy, she waved smugly and said proudly, "My aunt is back. I'm going home now. I'll come play with you guys again tomorrow."

Her appearance made all the kids want to punch her. After all, they were from the same village and almost everyone knew that the Xu family's little girl was as fat as a pig, so how could she be so beautiful?

After showing off, Xinyi asked, "Auntie, why are you back now? Is that your husband inside? Grandpa came back earlier and said that your husband passed the imperial examination with top honors and will definitely become an official in the future. He praised your husband to everyone he met."

"And also, Auntie, you've gotten so thin and become so gentle. I'm not used to it. And Brother Xun and Sister Wan went to your house, did they come back together this time?"

Xu Qingmeng patiently answered all her questions, saying that Xun Ge'er had something to do and hadn't come back yet, and that she had brought some snacks and candies for her to share with her friends later.
