"Second Aunt, Qinglan is…"
Only then did Shen Qinghe realize that there was something wrong with Shen Qinglan.
"Her illness was cured after she woke up," Dong Yao said with a smile.
"Really?"
Shen Qinghe looked at Shen Qinglan, who was staring at Shen Tao with her head lowered, with joy in her eyes.
"Really, I forgot to tell you guys about this," Dong Yao said as she nodded.
Dong Lan said, "It's almost noon, so I have to go back now. I still have to go to the fields with your second uncle to weed. I won't stay any longer."
"Qinglan, you can stay here and take care of Little Tao with your cousin. I will go back first."
Hearing this, Shen Qinglan wanted to reject her, but when she saw the little guy who was playing with her hair, she could only nod helplessly.
Shen Qinghe glanced at Shen Qinglan, then said to Dong Yao, "Take care."
Dong Yao opened the door and left.
Shen Qinghe pulled Shen Qinglan into the house and asked, "Qinglan, have you recovered?"
"Yes," Shen Qinglan replied.
Shen Qinglan hadn't said a word since she entered the door. Shen Qinghe was a little worried that she had become a mute. Now that she heard Shen Qinglan speak, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, Shen Qinghe said happily, "If my parents knew that you've recovered, they would definitely be very happy."
This was the truth. Shen Qinglan was a fool, so the Shen family gave in to her in everything.
Shen He and the Jiang family would buy her new clothes every year during the Spring Festival. Even Shen Qinghe, who was their biological daughter, did not receive such treatment.
Furthermore, every time Shen Qingning came back from town, she would buy her some hairbands and flower accessories.
How would a fool know how to use them? Usually, Shen Qingju would tie it for her, but she would lose it the very same day.
Dong Yao had specifically instructed Shen Qingning not to spend money recklessly.
However, every time Shen Qingning came back, she would bring something for Shen Qinglan, which made Dong Yao feel very helpless.
"When will my eldest cousin come back?" Shen Qinglan asked Shen Qinghe.
"My brother?"
"Why are you looking for him?" Shen Qinghe asked dubiously.
"I want to ask him about something."
"What is it?" Shen Qinghe asked with interest. "Tell me, maybe I know too."
Shen Qinglan thought for a moment, then looked at her and said, "After I woke up, I don't know anything about the country or the emperor."
"Are you asking about our country?" Shen Qinghe asked.
"Yes," Shen Qinglan replied.
Shen Qinghe smiled and said, "That's simple. Our country is called the Cloud Night Country. It's the twenty-third year of Ming Dynasty. As for the emperor's name... my brother said that the emperor's name can't be casually mentioned. If mentioned, one will get beheaded."
The Cloud Night Country, the twenty-third year of the Ming Dynasty?
It seemed that she had transmigrated to a country that did not exist in history.
Very good, she finally knew where she was.
After Shen Qinglan handed Shen Tao to Shen Qinghe, she stood up and said, "I'm going back."
Shen Qinghe quickly got up and asked, "You're going back now? Don't you want some tea? Madam Luo's nephew had given this tea to my brother."
"No." Shen Qinglan shook her head.
Shen Qinglan did not know who Mrs. Luo's nephew was, nor did she want to know how expensive the tea was. She only knew that she did not feel thirsty.
In Shen Qinglan's eyes, tea was like plain water, used to quench one's thirst.
Seeing Shen Qinglan get up and leave, Shen Qinghe could only swallow her words.
This cousin of hers used to be all smileswhen she was stupid. Why was she so aloof now?
Shen Qinghe thought for a long time but could not think of a reason.
