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

Wenxin'er had just left Shen Lu's house and hadn't gone far when she bumped into Fan Cuiying, whose face was sullen.

Wenxin'er immediately sensed something was wrong. Before the other person could see her, she turned around and tried to walk in the opposite direction.

A sharp voice called out to her.

"stop!"

Fan Cuiying was feeling frustrated and had nowhere to vent her anger when she ran into Wenxin'er.

However, given Wenxin'er's family background, Fan Cuiying couldn't say anything even if she was angry.

But with nowhere to vent her frustration, Fan Cuiying couldn't help but call for Wenxin'er to stop.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? You look so pale."

Wenxin'er still didn't know what had happened, so she could only bite the bullet and ask, trying to find out something from Fan Cuiying.

Fan Cuiying said sarcastically, "It's nothing, I just got yelled at when I went up the mountain."

She would never help that little bitch Shen Lu publicize her great achievements.

Seeing this, Wenxin'er didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she stepped forward and took Fan Cuiying's arm.

With an apologetic look, she said, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. I really meant well for the family. Maybe I didn't do something right, but I've always considered you my own sister-in-law. You're my role model."

Wenxin, a grown woman, said this without any embarrassment.

These words successfully made Fan Cuiying's expression much better.

Fan Cuiying felt much better after being coaxed by Wenxin'er, so she spoke directly.

"Look at you, child. I've always treated you like my own sister. Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you."

"Blame that bitch Shen Lu for her sneaky meddling; otherwise, you wouldn't have misunderstood. Don't worry, my heart is with you."

Seeing that she had distanced herself from the situation, Wenxin tentatively spoke up.

"How come Shen Lu is back unharmed? Could it be that I saw things wrong just now?"

Fan Cuiying remained silent about Shen Lu's matter.

He simply said, "That itchy little bitch Shen Lu, I'll kick her out of the Gu family sooner or later."

When Wenxin saw Fan Cuiying's expression of hatred for Shen Lu and her words about driving Shen Lu away, she thought that she had successfully caught them cheating and couldn't help but cheer, casually agreeing with Fan Cuiying.

And so, Wenxin missed the chance to learn the truth.

Shen Lu returned to her front door and her mind finally settled down. At that moment, she felt a dull pain in her neck.

Shen Lu then remembered that she still had a wound on her neck.

Li Mei poked her head out of the house and called out to Shen Lu.

"Sister, I cooked too much food today. Why don't you bring your two kids to my house for dinner?"

Shen Lu didn't try to be brave after hearing this. After thanking Li Mei, she took the two children to Li Mei's house.

Li Mei thoughtfully prepared a first-aid kit and asked Shen Lu to disinfect the two children.

This was also the first time Shen Lu had done something like this, so her movements were a bit clumsy, and she accidentally hurt the two small wounds.

The two little ones were clearly in excruciating pain, but they didn't flinch at all, their eyes fixed on Shen Lu's gentle profile.

Will their mother really not leave?

After a long and eventful morning, Shen Lu fell asleep almost immediately upon returning home after having lunch at Li Mei's house.

When Shen Lu woke up in the afternoon, the two little ones were still sleeping.

Shen Lu knew the two little ones were frightened, so she didn't wake them up.

He went to his desk and opened the original translation manuscript.

Shen Lu threw herself into her translation work, and when she looked up, the sun had already set.

Thinking that there wasn't much at home, Shen Lu picked up a shopping basket and went to buy vegetables and meat.

When the two little ones woke up, they found no one at home. They were still a little scared, but much better than before.

They sat together on small stools, obediently waiting for Shen Lu to return.

When Shen Lu returned carrying a heavy basket of vegetables, she saw that the lights in her house were already on. When she opened the door, she saw her two little ones waiting for her with well-behaved expressions.

It feels so good to have someone waiting for you.

Among all the lights in the homes, there was finally one that was turned on just for her.

"I bought a lot of things to cook delicious food for you two."

As Shen Lu spoke, she went to the kitchen to cook.

Because the ingredients were limited, Shen Lu couldn't focus on the ingredients themselves, so she spent a lot of time buying seasonings.

Anyway, she'll be receiving royalties soon, so she doesn't need to worry too much about money. Shen Lu bought a lot of things, filling the closet to the brim.

Shen Lu looked at her efforts and felt a great sense of accomplishment.

Shen Lu was busy cooking, and the two little ones were perched on the door frame watching her work.

The three of them were so in sync that it was as if they were playing a game of "wooden blocks".

When Shen Lu turned around, the two little ones who had been peeking immediately froze, looking extremely uncomfortable.

Shen Lu had her back to them and a big smile on her face.

Soon, Shen Lu finished two simple dishes: braised pork and cold shredded potato salad.

Shen Lu served each of the two children a bowl of rice and then took two pairs of chopsticks.

The two little ones picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

First, take a bite of the braised pork. Shen Lu's braised pork has thin skin and tender meat, is fragrant and glutinous but not greasy, and has a rich and mellow flavor. One bite leaves a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth.

Paired with perfectly cooked rice, it provides immense satisfaction.

The cold potato salad is crisp and delicious. Shen Lu didn't add any oil. With one bite, the sour, sweet, and spicy flavors explode in your mouth, making it incredibly appetizing.

The two little ones were initially a bit shy and hesitant to eat, but after one bite, their entire focus was on the food, and they completely forgot about being shy.

Shen Lu propped her head up with a smile as she watched the two little ones devour their food.

As the chef in charge of cooking, Shen Lu's favorite thing to see is someone paying for the food she makes.

So delicious that she didn't have time to say anything more, it was undoubtedly the best reward for her.

"Eat slowly, Mom will make you more tomorrow."

As Shen Lu spoke, she scooped the excess braised pork from the pot into a small plate and gave it to Li Mei's family across the street.

Li Mei initially tried to decline.

This shut down Shen Lu's thought: "The two little ones used to rely on Sister Li for a lot of care. Does Sister Li not treat me like a sister anymore?"

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony."

These days, few people eat braised pork that looks and smells delicious every day, and Li Mei couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

But she knew how precious the meat was, so she took a small piece of cured meat from the roof beam of her house and handed it to Shen Lu.

Shen Lu wanted to refuse, but Li Mei forcefully shoved it into her hand.

"Shen, you're a great cook. When you get back, research how to cook cured pork properly and teach me when you have time. Every time I cook cured pork, my child and father think it's too salty, which is such a waste of such good cured pork."

Shen Lu had seen through Li Mei's character.

He readily agreed and did not refuse again.

The two little ones slept too much in the afternoon and were incredibly energetic at night.

Shen Lu simply arranged for the two little ones to plant seeds with her.

She bought some seeds from the supply and marketing cooperative: clustered chili peppers, ginger, garlic, scallions, cilantro, celery, water spinach, mainly some seasonings, and vegetables that are relatively easy to grow.

The garden she had was quite large, about 100 square meters. After making a reasonable plan, Shen Lu began to plant seeds.

I thought the children would be very reluctant to do farm work, but the two little ones were full of energy.

It was their first time farming with their mother, and they were overjoyed.

The seeds they sowed were like the hopes they planted in their hearts.

I couldn't help but wonder if my mother would stay with these plants because she cared about them.
