Wang Cuilan said to Lin Yinyin, who was still eating, as she put on her coat and prepared to leave for work. She felt that her youngest daughter had changed since recovering from her illness and being discharged from the hospital. Although she was still quiet every day, she sensed something different, but couldn't quite put her finger on it. "I understand..." Lin Yinyin replied meekly, her head bowed, her expression complex. Today marked the thirtieth day since Lin Yinyin transmigrated. Although it had been a month since she arrived, she had been conscious for less than half a month. For the first half of that month, she had barely gotten out of bed, lying in a hospital bed. Transmigrating was bad enough, but why was she so unlucky as to be transported to a difficult era, and the original owner of this body was a sickly person? Heaven is blind!
