After a chubby wife with a child undergoes a remarkable transformation, her beauty becomes the talk

The next day.

Shen Lu woke up right at dawn.

There's still a lot to do today.

Shen Lu first did a set of aerobics on an empty stomach, and then quickly cooked a meal for the twins.

Kneading the dough, mixing the filling, and wrapping the wontons are all done in one go.

Shen Lu has always been a very capable person; in her mind, time is money.

Therefore, she will make the most of her limited time.

After wrapping the wontons, Shen Lu took advantage of the time while the water was boiling, filled a plate with the wontons, and knocked on her neighbor Li Mei's door.

Li Mei opened the door and saw Shen Lu, her face showing a look of surprise and delight.

Shen Lu got straight to the point.

"Sister, I'm going to the department store later to buy some things for the kids. If it's convenient for you, could you please keep an eye on them for me?"

Li Mei's attitude had softened considerably compared to before. When she saw the wontons in Shen Lu's hand, she spoke up.

"Young lady, look, you're giving me gifts again. We're just neighbors, why are you being so polite?"

"Here you go, ma'am, this is just enough to cook for breakfast."

When the topic of food came up, Li Mei seemed to have thought of something and spoke up.

"Shen, you're usually so unassuming, I never knew you were such a good cook."

The steamed buns you brought over yesterday were so delicious! My son keeps asking for more.

"When do you have time? Teach me how to wrap it."

As she received straightforward praise, Shen Lu smiled confidently and generously.

"It seems my sister doesn't eat enough of my cooking. Next time I make something delicious, I'll bring it all to her to try."

Li Mei was overjoyed and kept saying yes.

After receiving the wontons, he smiled and waved to Shen Lu.

"You can go ahead and do your thing. Your twins and my little Stone are getting along very well."

Li Mei is a warm and generous person who usually gets along very well with her neighbors. She is also the director of the management committee of the military compound.

If I can become friends with her, I'll have more security in the military compound in the future.

After all, the original owner had a really bad reputation and had clashed with many people.

If I want to have a good life in the future, I must solve this problem.

Shen Lu woke up the two little ones. Every time they woke up, they were no longer as wary as when they were awake, and their two identical little faces were always blank.

This is when they're at their most childlike, and they're incredibly adorable.

Shen Lu couldn't resist and stepped forward to ruffle their hair.

Gu Xingyu had regained some of his senses. When he saw it was Shen Lu, he immediately stepped back and covered his head to stop her from tormenting him.

Gu Xingze didn't react much, and even looked at Shen Lu with concern, pointing to the back of his head.

Shen Lu understood and pulled Gu Xingyu into her arms, feeling warm inside, her voice trembling with emotion.

"Thank you, Da Bao, Mommy doesn't feel pain anymore."

Gu Xingze pursed his lips, unsure of where to put his hands, feeling a little shy but not resistant.

Gu Xingyu, who was watching this scene from the side, snorted and turned his head away.

Shen Lu couldn't even show favoritism, so she stepped forward and opened her arms, wanting to hug Gu Xingyu as well.

But when the little guy caught a glimpse of him coming over, he jumped off the bed and ran to the bathroom.

Shen Lu sighed. The road to winning the hearts of the two children was long and arduous.

While the two little ones were washing up, Shen Lu put the dried wontons on the table and boiled an egg for each of them to supplement their nutrition.

I also ate a boiled egg and a few wontons.

Although you are trying to lose weight, you should not reduce your food intake to an extreme degree, otherwise it will damage your health.

After finishing her meal and cleaning up the kitchen, Shen Lu gave instructions to the two children.

"Mommy is going to buy some things later and will be back at noon. You two can play with your brother Stone. If Grandma comes to take you away, you can't just leave; you have to wait for Mommy to come back, okay?"

Gu Xingze nodded.

Gu Xingyu remained silent.

At this moment, Shi Tou from Li Mei's family came to knock on the door.

Stone looked to be about seven years old. He was tall and strong, and had gotten quite tanned from running around and playing outside all the time.

Standing next to him, Gu Xingze and Gu Xingyu looked like two bean sprouts.

The three of them usually play together, so they are very familiar with each other.

Stone knocked on the door, and when he saw that the person who opened it was the enormous Shen Lu, he was so frightened that he took a step back.

Shen Lu revealed a gentle smile.

"Stone, Auntie has to go out for a bit. You take care of your two little brothers and have fun. I'll make you something delicious when I get back."

Stone was still scared, but when he heard about the delicious food, his attention was instantly drawn to it.

The steamed buns I ate yesterday were made by this chubby auntie. Although she usually looks fierce and scary, I never expected her cooking to be so delicious.

Shi Tou is someone who can't resist delicious food, and he was immediately captivated by Shen Lu, patting his chest confidently to guarantee it.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely take good care of my two younger brothers."

With Shi Tou's assurance, Shen Lu felt much more at ease and left the compound after packing her things.

Watching Shen Lu's departing figure, Gu Xingze's big eyes flashed with worry. This woman had told them earlier that she was going to go shopping, but she hadn't returned for a long time.

Will it be the same as before?

"Brother, do you think she'll come back?"

This was the first time Gu Xingyu hadn't used the term "bad woman" to describe Shen Lu.

A look of bewilderment appeared in Gu Xingze's eyes. What happened yesterday was too wonderful, as wonderful as a dream.

He was extremely careful, barely daring to breathe, for fear that he might accidentally wake up from his dream and return to his old life of constant fear and trembling.

"What's wrong with your mom...?" Stone, unaware of what had happened, asked the two brothers with great curiosity, concerned about whether he would still be able to enjoy good food in the future.

On the other side, Shen Lu found the department store based on the original owner's memories.

Take out the shopping list I made yesterday and buy each item one by one.

Shen Lu bought mostly things for her two children, and also bought herself a bottle of Pechoin skincare lotion.

Even though I was careful with my money, I still ended up spending over a hundred dollars after leaving the department store.

Gu Xiao will send money home in the middle of the month, so there are still two weeks left.

Shen Lu pondered, realizing she needed to find a way to make money.

Just then, I passed by a translation institute.

Shen Lu thought about it again and realized that this was an opportunity.

In modern times, she built a very large business empire, with more than 30% of her clients being foreign, so she frequently traveled abroad.

Shen Lu speaks a variety of languages, with English being her most fluent. Her spoken English is so good that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she's from a beautiful country.

I can also listen to and write other foreign languages. Although I'm not as fluent as English, I can definitely use them in an emergency.

Not knowing if the translation department was short-staffed, Shen Lu went in tentatively.

In this day and age, it's no easy feat to learn English and get into a translation institute.

The people in the translation institute were dressed more than a decade ahead of their time, and everyone was doing their job.

The work pace is very fast; Shen Lu even overheard some colleagues communicating in English.

However, Shen Lu immediately noticed that their pronunciation wasn't very standard and had some minor issues.

While she was observing, a gentle male voice came from beside Shen Lu.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

Shen Lu turned around and was a very young man. He was wearing a suit vest, his hair was neatly combed, and he wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

His face wore a warm smile, like a gentle spring breeze in March.

"Hello, I'd like to apply for a translation job."

When Shen Lu said those words, everyone in the office stopped what they were doing.

They couldn't believe that this overweight, country-style woman in a floral dress would want to apply for a translation job.
