Chapter 213: Relatives Come
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In the evening, He Xiyan came out of the room and slept for three hours until she was awakened by the alarm set by herself.
Stretching, she slowly got out of bed to have a bath in the bathroom. In the mirror, her face really rounded a lot. She seemed to have gained weight. Today, in the hospital, she weighed and it suggested that she gained 105 jin.
He Xiyan pinched the meat on both sides of her cheeks, having an impulse to pull it off. She was not a beautiful woman. With a small face and beautiful eyes, she looked kind of pure and beautiful. If she was fat, she would be ugly.
Not knowing why, she began to gain weight all over. She remembered that she was very thin when conceiving Yuanyuan, and that she only had gained weight around her stomach. This time, however, her whole body became plumped, only her stomach seeming small.
Was it because she ate too much but didn’t exercise or work?
He Xiyan thought so. Women loved beauty, and she was no exception. Besides, judging from appearance, she could not match her husband. If she really became ugly now, then she was indeed a yellow-faced woman.
He Xiyan went out of the bathroom, worried, thinking about how to control her weight while walking.
Coming to the spiral stairs, she paused. First she heard some noisy footsteps, then followed by the voice of talking.
“Oh, my god, this castle is really fantastic, just like the one in fairy tales. Dad, my cousin is really lucky.”
“Yes, your current brother-in-law is even richer than Mo Yixuan.”
This conversation was between a father and a daughter. The man was about fifty years old. Although he was not in name-brand clothes, he was decent after all. The girl was only twenty three years old. She was kind of beautiful and graceful, her face even somewhat similar to He Xiyan .

He Xiyan opened her eyes in horror, her eyeballs about to fall out. She covered her mouth with her hands, looking at the father and daughter in the hall incredulously.
That was nobody else, but her uncle and cousin.
However, how dare they come here?
When the housekeeper Lu saw He Xiyan coming down, he rushed forward and said politely.
“My Lady, a father and daughter just came downstairs. They said they were your uncle and cousin from your hometown. You were asleep, so I called Mr. Ye and he said let they come in and treat them well.”
Housekeeper Lu smiled, saying that it was the first time he had seen Mrs. Mo’s relatives coming. He thought Mrs. Mo would be happy, but he saw her face dim, even somewhat abnormal.
In the hall, the father and daughter admired the things in the castle, as if they had entered a museum, especially the famous paintings on the walls, each of which was worth several million dollars. Besides, many of the ornaments were antiques, which were of high value at one glance.
They couldn’t imagine how much it would cost to buy such a castle.
“Cousin…” The moment the girl saw He Xiyan coming down, she hurried over and grabbed her hand warmly, smiling.
“Cousin, you really live a happy life! I have only seen such a castle on TV.” The girl opened her bright eyes, whose face full of envy undisguised.
Arriving at the castle, she was so thrilled as if having come to the splendid ancient imperial palace.
He Xiyan curled her lips slightly. She looked at her so-called cousin, squeezing out a smile with embarrassment.
The man came as well, fifty years old, not too old, and his time-polished eyes looked extremely sharp and smart.
