2726 Taller and fatter
Shu Yan finished the entire bowl of porridge and half of the dishes on the table before he felt half full.

She couldn’t help but frown, feeling that this shouldn’t have happened.

She suddenly looked at her hand, and her eyes froze for a moment.

She slowly raised her hand and looked at the flesh on the back of her hand in disbelief. This, wasn’t this something that only chubby children had?

She raised her other hand again. Was this pair of white and chubby hands hers?

Where were her slender Jade-like hands?

She couldn’t help but pinch her waist, then heaved a sigh of relief. Thank God, there wasn’t as much meat on her waist as on her hands. However, there was still meat.

She couldn’t care less about Gu Xin and Dong Xue beside her. She bent down slightly and pinched the meat on her leg.

Then, it was his arms, and then his face.

She understood.

She had gained weight.

She had probably been eating very well for the past ten years. Anyway, what she had just eaten was the amount she used to eat three meals a day, and she still felt that she was not full.

Gu Xin and Dong Xue didn’t understand what she was doing at first, but Gu Xin finally understood.

Previously, when fatty Wang talked about his cousin sister, he didn’t mention her height or weight. The main reason was that when fatty Wang last saw his cousin sister, he wasn’t even ten years old. Shu Yan was probably only eleven or twelve years old. Now that more than ten years had passed, fatty Wang had changed. It was impossible for Shu Yan to not have changed. Hence, fatty Wang didn’t mention her weight and only said that silly girl looked like his first aunt.

Now that she looked at it, Gu Xin felt that Shu Yan had realized that she had gained weight.

Therefore, she couldn’t help but remind her,”miss Shu, it’s been ten years. You’ve not only gained weight, but you’ve also grown taller.” It’s been three years since I’ve reached marriageable age, and I’ve grown quite a bit.”

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment. Then, she asked, ” third miss Gu, can you please stand up? I want to see if I’ve grown taller.

Of course, Gu Xin could. She stood up as told.

Shu Yan also stood up and looked at the height of the door, then looked at Gu Xin and Dongxue before walking to Gu Xin’s side.

She realized that she was actually as tall as third miss Gu.

Third young lady Gu’s height was one of the taller girls she had met. She had actually grown taller.

“I haven’t grown since I was twelve,” she said happily,”I’m too petite compared to my cousins. Once, I even eavesdropped on a distant relative telling my mother that my body doesn’t look good, and that my hands are like the chicken feet of the chickens in her Manor. She asked my mother to give me some nourishment. In the end, my hands became white and chubby, and I grew taller. My mother definitely won’t be worried about me when she sees me, Yingluo.”

At this point, she paused.

She had forgotten that third young lady Gu had just told her that her mother had been depressed after her disappearance and had passed away.

Gu Xin reached out to pull her back and patted her lightly, ” “Miss Shu, Auntie will be happy. You see, you’ve grown taller and fatter in the past ten years. Maybe it’s because aunty is protecting you from the dark!”
Shu Yan’s tears fell immediately.

Although Shu Yan’s face was toot, it looked especially small. In addition, her forehead was wrapped in a cloth. When she cried, she looked particularly pitiful.

She had gained weight, but not the kind with a fat head and big ears. She was the kind that was neither fat nor thin, and she looked like a round little girl who was particularly energetic and likable.
