Most importantly, they were heading towards the Feather Mulberry Land, and they had no channels to get food, horses and wagons. If they chose to travel on land, would Gu Chaoyan, who seemed quite feeble, be able to make it through the bumps? All of these should be taken into consideration. What if they ended up finding the land worse than the water? By that time, they might not even have any boats available. That would be a huge loss.
So Zhou Huaiyu hoped that they could choose the easier way to go.
Before Gu Chaoyan could give any response, Zhou Huaijin said without thinking, "Land. We anchor when we reach Tongzhou port."
If they left Chaoyan to make the choice, Chaoyan would definitely choose to bear her own pain. More importantly, they should reach Tongzhou as soon as possible. There were more than just them on this boat.
That was why he made the decision himself.
