"Thank you."
Hua Jiaqing whispered, her cheeks feeling a little hot.
"Are you willing to follow me from now on?" Ning Zhishui suddenly asked, "Being a fisherman is too dangerous, and your father's illness still needs treatment. Why don't you live in the market at the foot of the Xianlai Sect? That way you can be closer to me."
Also, stay away from the Hua family's relatives.
The three of them were a burden to their Chinese family. Although they lived there, they had to swallow their anger and endure all kinds of humiliation.
The head of the Hua family, Hua Lin, also seemed somewhat indifferent to them.
From his perspective, there was nothing wrong with this. After all, they were not direct relatives, but they needed their protection and assistance. They had already done their best to let this family live there and give them a place to stay.
It's impossible to take care of her all the time, arrange servants to serve her and buy medicine for her, right?
Since this is the kind of relationship, it's better to stay away from each other and at least keep some face.
Hua Jiaqing was stunned for a moment, then agreed immediately, "Okay!"
Ning Zhishui knew she would agree, but he didn't expect her to be so ready.
Perhaps seeing her confusion, Hua Jiaqing explained, "I was originally planning to leave the Hua family, but I didn't have enough crystals to support myself, so I had no choice but to continue living here."
Living in the Hua family, her parents have always been criticized and they are not happy living there.
Hua Jiaqing had wanted to leave for a long time, thinking that perhaps they would be happier that way.
Now that Ning Zhishui said this, and she had just obtained all the savings of three people, it would be a good time for her to leave.
"Take these crystals. Go to the hiring hall and hire a cultivator to escort you to the Xianlai Sect's market. Don't skimp on this money; arriving safely is what's most important." Ning Zhishui took out a few crystal tickets and handed them to her. "You'll need money when you're away from home, and you need to collect herbs for your father. If you have any left over after buying all the medicine, you can pay me back then."
The mercenary hall is generally used to hire mercenary groups. For example, if a client wants to find a certain spiritual herb from a certain place, but his own strength is too low to go there in person, then he can ask someone else to go on his behalf and pay the commission himself.
Or maybe he wants to go to a training ground, but he has few people and weak strength, so it is too dangerous, so he may ask a mercenary group to accompany him and escort him.
But hiring a mercenary group is too expensive, not everyone can afford it. The higher the difficulty, the higher the price. After all, this may be a life-threatening business.
But the type Ning Zhishui was talking about was the easiest, as it involved escorting between cities. It only required the person to run errands and control a flying instrument, and it didn't involve going into or out of dangerous areas, so the price was relatively cheap.
Otherwise, if Hua Jiaqing had to be alone, taking care of her mother with low cultivation level, looking after her paralyzed father, and finding a place to live in the Xianlai Sect Market... that would be too hard.
Hua Jiaqing was about to refuse, but after hearing Ning Zhishui's next words, she fell silent and obediently took it.
"Yeah, I've got that in mind."
She nodded, feeling like she had a lot to say and her gratitude was about to overflow from her chest, but in the end she swallowed it back.
"Then I won't go back to the Hua family with you. You can tell me anything by voice, or go find Hua Zhaoxing if there is anything urgent. I asked him before I left, and he will take care of your affairs." Ning Zhishui said.
Hua Jiaqing stared at Ning Zhishui blankly, and suddenly asked a completely unrelated question -
“Did you already know that Noila Mo and the others had ill intentions towards me?”
Ning Zhishui nodded.
"Then why didn't you tell me yesterday? Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming you, I'm just confused."
Why didn't he remind her yesterday, but instead watched it all happen today, and only came forward to help her when she was in danger?
Because Ning Zhishui knew that her life would not be in danger, he also believed that some major things would only have a long-term positive impact on a person if they were truly experienced.
Just like in the previous life, it was because of this experience that Hua Jiaqing would be more careful in her actions in the future and would not give others the opportunity to stab her in the back.
If Ning Zhishui had told her yesterday and she had avoided it because of his reminder, would everything still be the same as in the previous life?
Will the small pit that Hua Jiaqing has avoided now become a bigger pit in the future, trapping her and making her unable to extricate herself?
"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you in advance. Why don't I escort you personally? That way, you can see their true faces and I can protect you at the same time." Ning Zhishui said.
Hua Jiaqing lowered her head and looked at her toes. She hesitated for a moment before speaking, her voice a little muffled.
"Actually...I would believe it."
"What?" Ning Zhishui was puzzled.
"If you remind me, I will believe it." Hua Jiaqing looked up again and looked at her straight, with a blush of embarrassment on her face.
Ning Zhishui suddenly smiled, "Do you trust me very much?"
Hua Jiaqing hummed, "Letter."
"Then follow me from now on and work for me. I won't treat you unfairly."
Hua Jiaqing nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you from now on, benefactor!"
"No need to yell at me like that, just call me Ning."
Just like in the previous life.
Hua Jiaqing agreed obediently.
The two agreed that Hua Jiaqing would go back to arrange the move and hire a monk. She also planned to buy the herbs she could in Yuge City first, and then look for the remaining ones in the Xianlai Sect Market and elsewhere.
It would take at least two or three days to deal with these matters. She would inform Ning Zhishui in time after she settled down in Xianlai Sect Market.
Ning Zhishui will first take care of the spiritual objects, and will meet Hua Jiaqing after returning to Xianlai Sect.
The two separated, and Ning Zhishui walked out of the city, preparing to head to Xiao Chiyangtan.
She had been prepared to wait for a few days, but the matter was resolved sooner than she expected. Ning Zhishui was not sure when Hua Jiaqing would come to the sea, nor did she know whether those people would take action as they did in their previous life.
Now it seems that some things are really unavoidable, even if the situation changes, they will still happen.
Hua Jiaqing returned to the Hua family in a good mood.
She used to think she was just living, like everyone else in the world, with no idea why she was living, or where the end lay.
There is no joy in life, only heavy responsibilities and burdens.
But now that she has met Ning Zhishui, everything seems to have become clear. She has given her another possibility, making Hua Jiaqing feel that the future is promising.
She was filled with joy at the thought that she could leave here and that her father's illness might be cured.
I'll tell my parents the good news later!
"Hua Jiaqing, the master wants to talk to you in the front hall." As soon as she entered the door, she was stopped by the servant.
"Call me?" She was full of doubt.
"Yes, the head of the family has been waiting for you for a long time, and your mother is here too."
