TLNote: I’m a bit busy next week, so, the chapters of next week would be posted tomorrow-Thursday instead of Thursday-Sunday.

　　Chapter 177 An old friend that one doesn't want to see

　　Walking on the street, she found out that the size of this city was a lot smaller than Jingtian City. The pavement on the street were also not so neat. To see whether a city was good or not, one usually had to compare. The Jingtian City of the past was naturally great, but the Jingtian City of now that had been completely destroyed couldn't be compared with this city no matter what. At least, the bluestones on the street here were only slightly cracked. The number of houses that had collapsed was small. Only a corner of most of them was ruined. It was still enough to shelter from the wind and rain. At this moment, every household was busy repairing and strengthening the house. It looked very lively.

　　It was fine as long as she knew that she could settle here temporarily. The four didn't have much thoughts to go look at the street. They found a pharmacy and bough some essential medicine. Then, they went to a clothing store and each choose a set. They also inquired about where the nearest inn was.

　　Because Shu Huan still had some cash left after she paid for the accommodation and rewarded a servant, the other servants were busily fawning upon her. Soon, they had prepared the hot water that the four of them needed the most. Then, they rushed to make ginger tea for them.

　　It was great pleasure to bath in warm water after being covered by cold and wet clothes for two days. However, it was very disappointing that the moment Shu Huan relaxed her nerves, she sneezed twice. She quickly put on clean and thick clothes. Even after she drank the ginger tea, she couldn't hold it and her nose was soon stuffed.

　　After sleeping for a whole night, when she woke up the next morning, not only did the symptoms of cold not ease, instead, they got more serious. Her nose was so blocked that she had to use her mouth to breath. Moreover, it wasn't only her who got sick. The other three also had become sick. Meijing even started to have fever. She (M) lay groggily on the bed. Because Liangchen's injury at her feet had soaked in mud water for too long, there was some infections and it had begun to swell.

　　Under such circ.u.mstances, the four naturally couldn't go anywhere. A doctor had been summoned and they had taken medication. After being in h.e.l.l for three to four days did Meijing woke up. The swell on Liangchen's foot had also disappeared. She was able to walk freely, but the cash that Shu Huan had on hand had been spent.

　　The banknotes hidden in the silver hairpin was intact. The bank of Gu household was naturally the best and spread all over the country. When they had first entered the city, Shu Huan had also noticed that there was also a branch here. They could exchange the banknote, but she felt that it was easy to carry a banknote. It was not safe to carry the silver pieces on one's body after the exchange. Hence, she didn't touch this and only removed the pocket in the cotton coat. From those inconvenient to carry jewelries of Zhang Hanfang, she took out a dangling jade and gold-plated hairpin in the shape of a phoenix and let Liangchen go p.a.w.n it at a p.a.w.nshop.
