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

After the two children went into the room, only the couple remained in the living room.

"Um...you should go to sleep early, take good care of the children, and remember to tuck them in at night."

After saying those words, Shen Lu fled as if she were escaping.

"Okay." Gu Xiao watched Shen Lu's departing figure, lost in thought.

*

The next morning, after sending the two children to school, Shen Lu took Gu Xiao's measurements, a can of malted milk powder, and two packets of brown sugar to Gu Xiaohua's house.

During this period, Gu Xiaohua's overall condition visibly improved, and her son also grew up to be chubby and healthy, like a lucky baby.

Shen Lu had no experience in making menswear, so she came to Gu Xiaohua for advice.

Gu Xiaohua was overjoyed to learn that her second brother had returned and that the couple's relationship was now quite good.

What she hoped for most was that her second brother and sister-in-law could live a good life together. The two had drifted apart because of misunderstandings, but now that they finally knew each other's feelings, they should live happily ever after.

As for the elder brother and sister-in-law, they should divorce as soon as possible; that Fan Cuiying is clearly not a kind person.

"Second sister-in-law, didn't eldest sister-in-law instigate people to take the child away before? What's she saying now?"

"Police are still collecting evidence and there are no further actions at this time."

Gu Xiaohua sighed, feeling it was a waste that her elder brother had married such a wife.

"Thankfully, the child is alright."

Ever since becoming a mother, Gu Xiaohua has known that a child is a mother's lifeblood.

If it were her, and her sister-in-law took her child, she would risk her life to get her child back.

As expected of a tailor with many years of experience, Gu Xiaohua had a very good grasp of clothing patterns and quickly determined the general shape.

Gu Xiaohua was still in her postpartum period, so Shen Lu didn't bother her too much. After getting a general pattern, she didn't disturb her any further and left with the fabric.

Shen Lu had just returned to the gate of the compound when she saw Gu's mother from afar.

Upon learning that her son had returned, Gu's mother waited at the gate of the compound every day, but unfortunately, Gu Xiao hardly ever went out through that gate.

"Are you blind? I'm the commander's mother, how dare you stop me? Do you not want this job anymore?"

Relying on her connections, Gu's mother acted extremely arrogantly, shouting at the security personnel.

The security personnel, relying on the fact that he was Commander Gu's mother, still showed him some respect, but they never expected that Gu's mother would take advantage of the situation.

"This is my son's house. Why can't I go in? What does Shen Lu's talk mean? You guys listen to a woman? You must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to do something like this."

In Gu's mother's outdated view, listening to what women say is bound to bring bad luck, and listening to them will definitely lead to mistakes.

But she never considered that she was also a woman, that she possessed the identity of a woman, yet she belittled and hated women.

Shen Lu was just about to go see Gu's mother when she unexpectedly showed up at her door. She waved to the security guards and said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, comrades, for causing you trouble. I'll take him in right away and explain things clearly."

Shen Lu, as the wife of the regimental commander, was so polite to them, which made the comrades in the security department feel flattered, and they quickly released her.

Seeing their attitude, I spat.

"A dog that relies on its master's power."

Seeing Gu's mother's expression, Shen Lu couldn't help but facepalm.

Is Gu Xiao really her biological son? Why is she trying to tarnish her son's reputation like this?

If someone with a narrow mind holds a grudge against Gu Xiao tomorrow, they might try to trip him up somewhere. After all, people can always make things difficult for others within the bounds of their power.

Shen Lu was too lazy to talk to her about these things. After all, this was the first and last time she had invited Gu's mother to her house.

Gu's mother thought that Shen Lu had invited her in at Gu Xiao's behest, and immediately put on airs as a mother-in-law.

"I told you, as long as I live, I am Gu Xiao's mother-in-law."

It's a daughter-in-law's duty to respect her mother-in-law since ancient times. Even if I'm unhappy and hit you today, you still have to suffer the consequences.

When Gu's mother said this, she glared at Shen Lu, certain that Shen Lu wouldn't dare to contradict her.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lu snorted coldly.

"Who do you think you are? I haven't even served my own parents yet, why would I serve you, you old geezer?"

"You...you bitch, how dare you speak so rudely!" Gu's mother pointed at Shen Lu, her hand trembling with anger.

"Just because I raised my son and you take my son's salary every month, it's your duty to serve me."

"How come I remember that you weren't good to Gu Xiao back then? You made him work from dawn till dusk and start earning money at a young age. If he hadn't been appreciated and joined the army, he probably would have been ruined by you by now."

"Under these circumstances, it's already a favor that I'm not seeking revenge, let alone repaying a debt of gratitude?"

This is also why Gu Xiao and the Gu family are so distant. He has never received any care or love from them, so naturally he has no feelings for them.

"Besides, even if I'm supposed to serve Gu Xiao, I'm serving Gu Xiao himself, not you old geezer."

Shen Lu's small mouth was like it was coated with poison. With a single touch, her small mouth slammed shut, causing Gu's mother, who had one foot in the coffin, to step into the coffin with both feet.

Gu Xiao had just reached his front door when he heard this sentence.

Lieutenant He from behind nudged Gu Xiao on the shoulder.

"Brother Xiao is so lucky."

Gu Xiao didn't say anything and walked into his yard. When his aunt saw him, she seemed to see a savior and immediately threw herself in front of Gu Xiao, crying bitterly.

"Gu Xiao, is this how your wife treats me, her mother? She might just start peeing on my head one day."

"Second son, I know I've wronged you in the past. Maybe you can't let your daughter-in-law bully me like this. I'd rather be dead than be treated like this as a mother-in-law."

"I'll just die right now, so I won't cause you any trouble."

Shen Lu looked at his exaggerated expression and shook her head with a sigh.

With such excellent acting skills, it would be a waste if Gu's mother didn't go into acting.

If only I had a handful of sunflower seeds right now, I would definitely enjoy eating them.

Gu Xiao remained unmoved, like an iceberg, and instead issued an order to leave.

"Mother, if there's nothing else, please go back."

"..." The air was silent for a moment. Gu's mother knew it was awkward, so she patted off imaginary dust and stood up.

Mother Gu rubbed her hands awkwardly: "Second son, I did come to see you this time because there is something else I need to discuss."
