Ten days later, the ship entered the waterways of Jiangnan.
Ming Lingyi held onto the ship's railing, her fingertips chilled by the river wind. She still felt a little dizzy. For the past ten-odd days on the water, the boat had swayed gently with the waves. At first, she couldn't even keep down plain congee. When the boat reached the next dock, her brother had insisted she disembark. They first rested for a night in the small port town, and the next day, he took her to a clinic. Only after confirming she was alright did they prepare to set off again.
Ming Chengyu would have preferred to travel by land, but Ming Lingyi thought it would take too long. Besides, they had already been delayed for a few days in town, so she was adamant about continuing by water.
Unable to change her mind, Ming Chengyu hired another, larger boat.
Fortunately, after that last bout of seasickness, Lingyi was doing much better this time.
