Chapter 75
Seeing that they only had a little luggage, Jiang pointed to the passenger ship not far away, and asked in surprise at the same time, "Why did you come here? I heard that the passenger ship is cheap, so don't waste your money."

Mrs. Zhou said with a wry smile: "It's quite cheap to sit there, but it's a pity that our mother and daughter are seasick. We couldn't bear it just after entering the cabin, so we can only come here and try it. If we can't think about it, we will stay on the deck. The deck looks wide and big."

With an expression of sympathy for each other, Jiang pulled Zhou to pour out the bitter water.

At this moment, Tang Lao Er and the others had also settled the donkey cart and mule cart. The women were seasick and dared not enter the cabin at all, so they simply stayed on the deck to watch the salute, and let Tang Junsheng and the others enter the cabin to have a good rest.

At this time, there was some commotion on the passenger ship not far away, which attracted Tangning's attention. After she took a closer look, she realized that several people were going to board the boat. Because they didn't have enough coins, they were kneeling and begging. Many people nearby noticed this movement, but no one said anything. The boatman was also cruel and refused to accommodate anything.

Tangning thought that those people would give up on the boat, but they actually threw a baby and a little girl on the shore and boarded the boat cruelly. The little girl was crying loudly on the shore with the baby in her arms. It was a tragedy for others.

As soon as the passenger ship leaves, the two children dare not think about their future. Just when Tangning was hesitating whether to come forward, the passenger ship actually moved and gradually moved away from the shore. She stood up suddenly and planned to take the two children Bring it over, and at this moment a couple wearing a gauze came to the two children.

The woman knelt down and said something to the little girl, and soon the little girl followed the couple onto a small fishing boat with the child in their arms.

Tang Ning just lay on the mast on the deck and stared at them, with a little confusion in her eyes. She didn't look back until the merchant ship moved, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

When the boat moved, Jiang clung tightly to Tangning's arm, sweating from his forehead, "A'Ning, why do I feel dizzy?"

Tangning took a moment to feel that the boat was quite stable. She patted Jiang's back helplessly and comforted her, "Mother, this is just a psychological effect. Don't keep thinking about seasickness. Look at the customs and customs here. You should be able to see a lot of different scenery here in Tangzhou, if you feel uncomfortable, just lean on the mast and close your eyes to rest, and it will not be uncomfortable to relax."

Jiang Shi tried it out according to Tangning's instructions, and it felt a lot better, but she couldn't speak, and when she spoke up, she felt like throwing up again.

After trying this for an hour, the Jiang family and the others were able to adjust their state. Even Du Chunyue, who suffered from seasickness the most, was able to hold on. At this moment, Tangning saw the couple again.

Although their fishing boat left early, the speed of the fishing boat was not as fast as that of a large merchant ship, and it was only a matter of time before they were caught up.

The wind blowing the gauze, from Tangning's angle, she could just see the woman looking at the child in her arms tenderly and lovingly. The little girl was timidly looking here and there next to the woman, not daring to act rashly. She didn't dare to eat the man handed the bun to her.

Tangning looked at it for a while, and when the two boats were closest to each other, she took out a pack of oiled paper bags from the pannier and threw them over, right into the cabin.

This movement frightened the people on the fishing boat. The man straightened his gauze and rushed out of the cabin, just in time to meet Tangning's wry smiling face.

She also waved at them.

The man stared at Tangning for a long time before turning around calmly and getting into the cabin.

The woman asked nervously, "What's going on?"

The man shook his head, and said in a low voice, "She recognized that big-hearted little girl from Earth Temple, it's all right."

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, and asked cryptically, "Is there anyone else?"

The man nodded, opened the oiled paper bag, and found that the thing was still very hot, and there were four big pancakes inside. He gave the thing to the little girl, and said, "A sister invited us to eat. Remember, from today onwards, this is your cake." You can call me daddy, you can also call me little daddy, understand?"

The little girl nodded, looked at the pancakes and licked her lips, took one at the insistence of the man, but couldn't resist the aroma of the pancakes, and began to eat in small bites.

The man and the woman looked at each other, and slowly began to eat, and there was one left for them to share with the boatman.

Tangning stared at the merchant ship for a while, and only looked away when the distance between the two sides widened.

Because of seasickness, Jiang and the others didn't notice what Tangning threw, let alone where it went. Afterwards, when they wanted to ask questions, Tangning interrupted them, so they forgot.

The merchant ship would not be able to dock until the early morning of the next day. Jiang and the others refused to enter the cabin, so a group of people simply spread straw mats on the deck, wrapped them in big quilts, and covered their heads with bamboo hats, barely able to resist the cold air on the river. No matter how wrapped up in the environment, I still feel the cold air going straight into my body. I can't keep warm at all, and I can't even sleep well.

Tangning was always alert, but in the middle of the night, when she sensed someone approaching, she immediately opened her eyes, just in time to meet the star-like eyes of a boy holding a lantern.

The other party seemed to have been waiting for her to wake up, saw her open her eyes, and immediately signaled her to look in the direction of the cabin.

There seemed to be a slight noise in the darkness, but it quickly returned to calm. Although Tangning didn't know what happened, Tangning still sensed something was wrong with her extraordinary sensitivity, and nodded gratefully at the boy.

The young man smiled, and asked politely in a low voice: "I'm a little seasick, I'm really not used to living in the cabin, I didn't expect to wake up the girl, I'm sorry, I'm leaving now."

Tangning shook her head and responded with him, "It's okay, we're also seasick and can't stay in the cabin, but my dad and his group are all in there."

She said this deliberately louder.

There was a flash of appreciation in the boy's eyes, and he stood for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.

Tangning didn't go to sleep anymore, she just sat and leaned against the mast, looked around, and neatly broke the long bamboo pole she brought aboard into two pieces, playing with it vigorously in her hands, and the cabin became even quieter.

She made a fuss for a long time but failed to wake up the Jiang family, so she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Fortunately, she was alert, otherwise she didn't know what would happen tonight. Of course, I should also thank that boy.

During the long wait, the boat was gradually approaching the shore, and everyone woke up from the sudden shaking.

Mrs. Li asked in fear: "What's the matter? Did you hit it?"

Tangning shook her head, her voice was slightly hoarse, "We're docking, let's pack up, we can get off the boat now, we'll eat some warm food first when we get to the ground."

The Jiang family got up quickly, and only after finishing packing the straw mats and blankets did they have the time to look towards the shore.

At this time, around the time when the rooster crowed and the dawn broke, the stars twinkled in the sky, and the distant horizon seemed to be still glowing with white light. The fishing fires on the river were lit, and many people had already started cooking, and some people were sitting on the deck and singing ditties , Seeing how lively it is, the small stalls on the shore have also sprung up, and the faint fragrance wafts over, which makes people's spirits shake.
