Chapter 218 – Don't look down on a woman for being fat (1)
After the traditional one-month recovery period following childbirth had ended, there were many things that had to be done . For example, Old Madame had agreed to give Gancao to Ning Mingjie after Nie Sangyu gave birth . But, Old Madame had fallen sick, and many things had also happened in the household since his request . And so, Gancao looked at her master and said that she wanted to serve her for a couple more months . Ji Man agreed .

After taking a bath and putting on the clothes that had she worn while pregnant, Ji Man discovered that all of the clothes in her wardrobe felt a bit too tight . She had done her best to improve her health during the past month . It was her most precious a.s.set . That was why, no matter how unhappy she felt, she still worked towards making this body healthy again . However, after this postnatal period of eating and drinking nouris.h.i.+ng supplements, this body had become as round as a ball . She squeezed the excessive fat on her belly . In order to slim down, a lot of energy and effort would have to be exerted .

After working through the night, the estate's seamstress servants made a new wardrobe for her .
Wearing a dress that was clearly three sizes larger than her previous ones, Ji Man dryly laughed . Then, she pushed opened the doors and went outside .
It was already autumn outside . The weather was cool and refres.h.i.+ng . When a gust of wind blew by, her body felt noticeably more at ease .
A couple of servant girls pa.s.sed by here and were shocked by what they saw . They hurriedly saluted her, then they left with their heads lowered .
Ji Man pretended that she didn't hear their stifled laugher and continued walking to Old Madame's courtyard .
What's wrong with being fat? Haven't they heard of not looking down at a teenager for being poor or a woman for being fat? A teenager's future and a woman's figure were the same . No one could successfully predict how it would change .

Qian Lianxue and Qi Siling were in Old Madame's Courtyard attending to her . They were both surprised when they heard a servant girl announce that Madam had arrived . They hurriedly stood up and looked towards the doorway .
Ji Man pa.s.sed through the doorway and smiled at them . “Ah, you're all here . ”
Qian Lianxue briefly froze in surprise .
Qian Lianxue briefly froze in surprise .
Qi Siling was so shocked that her body was trembling . She hastily turned around and covered her mouth . It was if she was looking at two completely different people . Who could have expected that the previously stunningly beautiful Nie Sangyu would become so ghastly looking?
Old Madame was leaning against her headboard for support . Seeing Nie Sangyu coming inside, she closed her eyes .
Ji Man very properly kneeled down by the bed . “Old Madame, Sangyu has come here to pay respects .
Old Madame's mood was complicated . She had placed too much of her expectations on Sangyu . Now that all of her hopes had been dashed, it was hard to hide her disappointment . But, it wasn't Sangyu's fault that the baby had been lost . It was her sin for not doing a better job protecting her . Now that Sangyu had changed to this form after her one-month recuperating period, she really didn't know what to say to comfort her . “Stand up first . ”
Ji Man stood up . Not acting awkward at all, she sat down on Old Madame's bed and looked at her complexion . As expected, it was slightly worse than before . She couldn't help feeling worried . “Old Madame, have you been regularly eating your medicine?”
