After a chubby wife with a child undergoes a remarkable transformation, her beauty becomes the talk
Chapter 8 The eldest sister-in-law comes to return the money
People in the compound have a habit of taking a nap at noon. The two children hadn't rested well at the hospital, and they yawned with their mouths open after eating.
The two little ones instinctively walked towards the small study.
They usually sleep there.
Shen Lu thought of the small folding bed in the study, where the two brothers lay sideways with their feet dangling in mid-air.
Children this age like to roll around in their sleep, and they've rolled onto the floor several times.
However, every time the original owner heard the two of them fall to the ground, his first reaction was to scold the two brothers for waking him up.
Over time, the two little ones started sleeping in a very straight position and didn't dare to turn over.
Thinking of this, Shen Lu interrupted the two of them.
"Wait, you guys go sleep in the master bedroom."
Shen Lu opened the door to the master bedroom and quickly spread out the sheets and put on the duvet cover.
Then I took out two buckwheat pillows and put them on the bed.
"From now on, the two of you will sleep in this room."
Because he was sick, Gu Xingze looked listless and obediently lay down on the bed without saying anything.
Even though Gu Xingyu was so sleepy that he could barely keep his eyes open, he still went against Shen Lu at every turn, standing at the door with his arms crossed, chattering away.
"I don't want to sleep with you, you big bad guy, you'll definitely sell the child while we're sleeping."
Shen Lu chuckled and lightly flicked Gu Xingyu's forehead: "If I wanted to sell you, I would have done so long ago. Why would I bother making you meat buns?"
Gu Xingyu covered his forehead, his beautiful big eyes glaring fiercely at Shen Lu, just like a cat.
It wasn't until Shen Lu brought up the fact that not sleeping properly would stunt his growth that Gu Xingyu reluctantly lay down on the bed, his back to Shen Lu, his little bottom sticking out.
"Hmph, go ahead and sleep with me. When I grow up to be as tall as Daddy, I'll beat you up, you bad woman..."
Gu Xingyu kept muttering to himself, but then he got sleepy and fell asleep before he could finish speaking.
When Gu Xingyu was asleep, he no longer had his fierce and aggressive appearance; instead, he was incredibly soft.
Shen Lu looked at the two adorable little cubs, her joy growing with each passing moment.
He couldn't resist leaning down and gently kissing the two sleeping people on the head before turning to leave.
Gu Xingze didn't open his eyes until he heard the door close.
He reached out his little hand and gently stroked the spot where Shen Lu had kissed him; it tickled.
He had heard that mothers would reward their children with kisses.
It turns out it was true.

While the two little ones were asleep, Shen Lu took her tools and went to the yard.
In the military compound, each household has its own small courtyard.
Everyone else has planted vegetables and spices in their yards, which is very convenient as they can take them whenever they need them.
Only Shen Lu's courtyard was a complete mess.
When Shen Lu was tidying up the room yesterday, she had already planned in her mind what things should be planted in this yard.
Taking advantage of the time, Shen Lu quickly cleared away the weeds in the courtyard and turned over the soil.
Now I'm just waiting to buy some seeds.
After finishing all this, the sun had already begun to set, and it was 3 p.m.
Shen Lu then remembered her two children.
The two little ones were sleeping soundly in bed.
When Shen Lu saw them, a sweet feeling welled up in her heart, and the fatigue of the afternoon instantly disappeared.
Although I was reluctant to wake them up, I couldn't let the two children sleep indefinitely, otherwise they wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
"Xiao Ze and Xiao Yu, wake up."
Gu Xingze and Gu Xingyu were awakened by a gentle voice, and were still a little confused as to who was in front of them.
Shen Lu held Gu Xingyu in her arms and dressed him. Gu Xingyu's little head bobbed like a chick pecking at rice, as if he was about to fall asleep any second.
Shen Lu gently pinched his nose: "Little piggy, you can sleep tonight if you want."
Perhaps because they slept for too long, the two little ones haven't fully woken up yet.
Shen Lu went to the bathroom, wet a towel, and wiped the faces of both children.
When Gu Xingyu regained consciousness, he saw that the person holding him was Shen Lu. The little guy jumped up and scrambled away from Shen Lu's arms as if he were escaping, staring at Shen Lu warily with his big eyes.
When he saw Shen Lu treating his brother with the same gentleness, the little guy's guardedness gradually disappeared, turning into confusion.
That was the first time in his memory that he had been held by this woman.
Recalling the embrace from just now, Gu Xingyu's ears turned red again.
Her embrace was different from her father's hard embrace; it was fragrant, soft, and so comfortable.
But why is she so kind to them?
After tidying up the two little ones, Shen Lu heated up their lunch.
Thinking of giving the two kids some extra nutrition, I steamed a big bowl of steamed egg custard.
Gu Xingyu had already witnessed how delicious the steamed buns were, so this time he skipped the boasting and started eating them in big bites.
I need to eat a lot so I can protect my brother and fight off the bad woman.
Shen Lu was deep in thought when a knock on the door interrupted her.
The door opened, and there was Fan Cuiying, carrying a cloth bag in her hand, her purpose was clear.
"Sister-in-law, this is the money Mother asked me to bring you."
Shen Lu took the money and prepared to close the door.
"Hey hey hey..." Fan Cuiying immediately blocked the door with her body.
A pair of shifty eyes peered into Shen Lu's house.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Your sister-in-law still has something to say to you."
With the two children present, Shen Lu didn't want to get into a conflict with her.
"Speak quickly if you have something to say."
Fan Cuiying put on what she thought was a kind smile and spoke earnestly to Shen Lu.
"Your mother is also thinking about your future. You're already in a bad situation being trapped here. If you take too much money from Gu Xiao, it will be even harder for you to get out of here later."
"If you continue as you are, it won't be long before Gu Xiao takes the initiative to divorce you, and then you can pursue the freedom you want."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lu's expression hardened slightly.
The original owner was manipulated by Gu Youcai's family using the word "freedom" to make her believe that the family genuinely cared for her.
She listened to their advice and acted recklessly, which made her a rotten apple in the family compound.
Fan Cuiying still thought Shen Lu was as easy to manipulate as before, and kept lecturing her with her old theories.
"Since you advocate freedom so much, then you should divorce Gu Youcai."
Fan Cuiying's feigned innocence instantly froze on her face.
"Sister-in-law, I'm genuinely thinking of you."
Shen Lu sneered. If she truly cared for her, would she really let her abandon her officer husband and two children to pursue so-called freedom?
Only that idiot original owner would believe it.
Shen Lu retorted sharply.
"Sister-in-law, I'm genuinely thinking of you. I remember you two don't have any children yet, right? Getting a divorce will save you from being ridiculed as a barren hen."
After saying this, Shen Lu looked at Fan Cuiying with a cold expression. Don't think she didn't know that Gu Youcai's whole family was after twins, just because Gu Youcai had no children.
When Fan Cuiying heard about the hen that couldn't lay eggs, her face turned as pale as if she had eaten shit.
When did this little vixen become so eloquent, always finding a way to hit people where it hurts?
She and Gu Youcai have been married for seven or eight years, but they still don't have children.
On the surface, everyone else treated her politely because she was the manager's wife, but in reality, many people mocked her behind her back, and many compared her to Shen Lu.
She knew it wasn't her fault, but she couldn't say anything.
If she reveals the truth to others, Gu Youcai will beat her to death.
Fan Cuiying felt a chill run down her spine when she thought about it, and dared not refute Shen Lu.
