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

They soon arrived at their destination, and everyone got off the bus. To ensure that the two little ones stayed with them, Shen Lu and Zhao Jingxue each held one of the little ones' hands.

The four of them first went to the post office to call the two little ones' uncle.

There were an unusually large number of people at the post office today; the line to make phone calls stretched outside the post office.

The weather is no longer hot, but the sun is still scorching.

Shen Lu pressed the two little ones close to her and bent down to shade them.

Zhao Jingxue found two newspapers from somewhere and fanned the two little ones with them.

However, the two little ones were so engrossed in whispering to their uncle that they didn't notice anything amiss.

After waiting in line for several tens of minutes, it was finally their turn.

Shen Lu had already memorized Shen Chi's phone number, but she didn't know if he was busy or if he would have time to answer the phone.

After what seemed like an eternity, the other end of the line still hadn't answered, and the people queuing behind them were starting to urge them on.

Just as Shen Lu was about to give up, a deep, tense voice came from the other side.

"Little Deer, what's wrong?"

Realizing that people don't usually make phone calls these days unless there's a specific reason, Shen Lu quickly explained.

"Brother, I'm fine. I received the things you sent. Thank you for preparing so many tickets; they're all for our immediate use."

"As long as it works."

The tension in Shen Chi's voice disappeared.

"Also, the two little ones have heard that they've never spoken to you, their uncle, before. After I mentioned it yesterday, they've been clamoring to call you."

After saying that, Shen Lu handed the phone to Xiao Yu.

"Hello, is this Xiaoyu or Xiaoze?" Shen Chi's voice unconsciously softened.

In the letter Shen Lu mailed to him, she mentioned that he had two five-year-old twin sons named Gu Xingze and Gu Xingyu.

Shen Chi only knew these things; he knew nothing else.

Hearing a strange man's voice suddenly made Xiao Yu a little nervous. He held the phone for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Encouraged by Shen Lu's gaze, he finally spoke slowly after a long while.

"Hello, Uncle, my name is Gu Xingyu, and I'm your sister's child..."

Shen Lu and Zhao Jingxue were amused by Xiao Yu's childlike remarks.

Shen Chi, on the other end, was seriously replying to Xiao Yu.

"Hello Xiaoyu, I am your mother's older brother, your uncle. My name is Shen Chi."

Men, regardless of age, can quickly become acquainted.

After chatting for a few minutes, Xiao Yu's reserved demeanor completely disappeared.

He chatted enthusiastically with Shen Chi about interesting things.

"By the way, Uncle, when are you coming to our house? My brother and I will take you up the mountain to pick chestnuts and to catch fish in the water. My mom is a great cook."

Shen Chi couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this. These things might not mean much to adults, but they were extremely interesting to children.

The little guy is really looking forward to his uncle.

"My uncle will come to see you during the Chinese New Year once he finishes what he's doing."

"Really?" Xiao Yu jumped up excitedly.

Xiao Ze's eyes were also sparkling as she turned to look at Shen Lu.

With just one look, Shen Lu understood what he wanted to know.

There are still three months until the Chinese New Year.

The little guy counted on his fingers, then sighed softly, "Three months is a long time!"

"Xiao Yu, where is your brother Xiao Ze?"

Shen Chi was unaware that Xiao Ze hadn't spoken, and he asked this because he wanted to hear the other child's voice.

Xiao Yu didn't know what to say, so he looked at Shen Lu with pleading eyes.

"Brother, Xiaoze doesn't talk much. You should meet him in person when you arrive. He's a very cute kid, just like Xiaoyu."

"That's all, I won't bother you any longer, you go ahead with your work."

As Shen Lu left the post office, she keenly noticed that Xiao Ze was in low spirits.

Shen Lu squatted down to be at eye level with Xiao Ze.

The little guy's eyes were already brimming with tears.

He finally heard his uncle's voice and wanted to talk to him, but...

Shen Lu held the little guy in her arms, feeling the clothes on her shoulders gradually getting wet, and gently patted Xiao Yu's back.

"Mom knows that our Xiaoze also wants to start talking, but the things Mom did in the past have left bad memories for Xiaoze. Mom will be there for you to overcome them slowly."

Xiao Ze slowly nodded in Shen Lu's arms.

"Sweetie, we'll take it slow. When your uncle comes, Mommy believes you'll be able to speak."

After Xiaoyu calmed down, the four of them headed towards the department store.

They had just left the post office when a figure emerged from under a tree not far away.

He watched the four figures leave, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Didn't Shen Lu say that she doesn't have any brothers?

Then who is the child's uncle she mentioned?

The four of them first went to the department store. Shen Lu hadn't been sure of the two children's height before, so she hadn't bought them any clothes.

Since I brought him here today, I must buy a couple more items to take home.

Shopping is indeed a woman's nature, especially since her two little ones have combined all her excellent genes; they look like little child models when they stand there.

Every outfit fits me perfectly.

Almost all the clothes the two children tried on were taken away by Shen Lu with a wave of her hand.

Shen Lu had plenty of tickets and money, and Zhao Jingxue also knew that Shen Lu's brother had sent her a lot of money before.

It's perfectly reasonable to spend this money.

Xiao Yu's low spirits were gradually soothed during the shopping trip, and he couldn't help but blush when his mother praised him.

After buying children's clothes, Shen Lu passed by a women's clothing store.

The temperature is about to drop, and the clothes we wear underneath won't be visible, so we don't have to worry about people talking about us if we buy something nice.

With this in mind, Shen Lu bought herself a lot more ready-made clothes.

Zhao Jingxue had a lot of money, so she bought herself a new outfit and a pair of shoes.

By the time they reached midday sun, the two little ones were so tired they could barely stand up straight.

Having taken care of the two little ones, Shen Lu and Zhao Jingxue led them, still wanting more, to the state-run restaurant.

"Everyone's tired, so it's my treat today."

Shen Lu was very generous.

Zhao Jingxue readily agreed without making excuses.

Upon seeing Shen Lu, Manager Zhou was overjoyed and came to greet her, finding the four of them a window seat.

"Oh my, I've been waiting for you so long! The braised dish you made last time was in such high demand that we couldn't keep up with the demand."

Shen Lu exchanged a few pleasantries with Manager Zhou.

Manager Zhou then noticed the identical little guy behind Shen Lu.

"Call him Uncle Zhou."

"Hello, Uncle Zhou!" the two little ones called out in their clear voices.

"These are your children?" Manager Zhou looked incredulous. Shen Lu looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. How could she have two sons so big?

I was still thinking...

Shen Lu remained noncommittal: "They are five years old."

Having come to terms with this fact, Manager Zhou quickly composed himself.

"Please order."

After ordering her food, Shen Lu looked around.
