Yun Ya had hardly ever been on a ship, unaware of her own seasickness. As the journey progressed further, Yun Ya felt dizzy and nauseated, unable to withstand the discomfort that followed.
She couldn't keep anything down, vomiting up whatever she ate. Xiao Nan was at a loss, watching Yun Ya lie on the bed, pale and weak, tears of anxiety welling up.
Before the departure, Zhang Huasheng had sought out Ji Lanyi, who allowed him to accompany the journey. Upon learning of Yun Ya's seasickness, he had a unique secret remedy. He instructed Xiao Nan to help Yun Ya sit up, and retrieved a small brown pill from a bottle he carried on him, about the size of a pinky fingernail. He pried open Yun Ya's mouth, shoved it in, and gave her water to swallow.
"It's fortunate that I'm here, as this is a unique secret remedy from the Hua family, true remedy for seasickness albeit underutilized."
