"You can gain something by just walking in front of him?" The second sister replied doubtfully, and whispered: "Ningguo Mansion has taken us in, but we can't help at all here. Even if we get a good job, we still can't do it. I can’t take it.”
Mrs. You's stern eyes suddenly came over. "Do relatives still have to beg for work and receive rewards like servants in their mansion?"
The second sister replied: "How can you do well in front of him?"
"I always think you are stupid, why are you not enlightened at all?" You Lao Niang took her second sister to her residence, avoided people, and taught her carefully: "After living in their house these days, do you still want to go back to live?" What about a poor life? See how much better Rong Ge's wife is than you. She lives in the mansion as a grandma, and everyone who comes and goes is under the orders of the wife. In such a big garden, you can enjoy leisure every day and don't have to do anything, even go to the hut. There are four or five girls at my service."
Mrs. You hummed and said: "Look at you again, you look no worse than her. You have worked hard to please the wife in the west, but in the end you can't even get a second bedroom. Do you want to live the life you have now? The monthly money is not as good as their house There are many big maids here. Those maids often receive other rewards, so who doesn’t have a small treasury in private?”
Although something sounded wrong to Second Sister You, she was used to listening to her mother, but she couldn't find anything wrong with her mother's words. She had always been docile, but when she returned to her residence, she listened to her mother's nagging and education.
But Uncle Rong went to the front hall and sent someone to call Lai Sheng over. He told the second sister of the You family about their marriage and asked Lai Sheng to do it in person.
Later that day, Lai Sheng found out where Zhang Hua was. It was true that the You family's mother and daughter said this man was hopeless.
Just because Lai Sheng missed Uncle Rong's favor and made a banquet the next day, he invited not only Uncle Rong, Aunt Rong, Aunt Zhen, but also Mother Jia and Aunt Lai, as well as all the ladies and grandmothers of Xifu. .
So Lai Sheng planned to wait until the first month before going to Zhang's house to cancel Zhang You's marriage.
On the 18th, the invitation to Laisheng's family in Dongfu was completed.
On the 19th, Lin Zhixiao from Xifu was invited again.
On the 20th, Shan Daliang of Xifu invited again.
On the 21st, Wu Xindeng of Xifu continued.
Uncle Rong went to Lai Sheng's house to invite him to drink once, but several stewards of Xifu never came to invite him to drink. Just because I received a letter from Ping'an Prefecture, a pox epidemic broke out in Ping'an Prefecture.
No one thought that the plague that had been eliminated in the previous life would be so ferocious in this era.
The words "The dead are not reckoned" in the letter made Jia Rong shiver all over. Even reading the letter makes me feel itchy all over. It was as if the crystal pox suddenly appeared on his back, and it was unbearably itchy.
I always want to scratch my back with my hands. Even if I scratch my back a few times through my clothes, I can feel refreshed.
"The timing is bad. It happens to be the first month of the year. I don't know how many people are going to be harmed this time. The long-term workers in the kiln can prevent it, but when the short-term workers come and go, people from outside will always come into contact. If it breaks out in the kiln, the consequences are unimaginable."
Xue Biao said: "Brother Rong, you are overly worried. Although acne is harmful, it is not without prevention measures. Since the Ping'an Prefecture letter did not mention the kiln disaster, but only said that the kiln would be opened after the epidemic, then they are carrying out vaccination. "
"Vaccination?" Jia Rong had heard of this method before, which seemed to be to use the pox pustules on cows to prick open them, and then inoculate the people with the concentrated water.
Xue Biao smiled and said: "Is it possible that Brother Rong has forgotten that vaccination was promoted when the Supreme Emperor was in power. You should have been vaccinated when you were young, but you were too young to forget it. Now the eldest sister of the second brother Lian's family He is already two or three years old. Since there is an epidemic of pox outside, it is time to plan on getting vaccinated in the next few days."
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
"Since vaccination was implemented when the Supreme Emperor was in power, how come there is still a major epidemic in Ping'an Prefecture?"
"Everyone is vaccinated, and not every family is willing to vaccinate. Except for officials who will imitate the palace vaccination, others have neither money nor courage. There are tens of millions of people in the country, and there are not so many doctors who know how to do it. Vaccination, how can we avoid accidents caused by vaccination? It is risky after all, and His Majesty’s second son died of vaccination when he was young. This is true for the royal family, let alone the common people.”
"Are there any benefits to vaccination?"
"How can there be no benefits and disadvantages? There are currently four methods of vaccination: the first method is to wear the underwear of the person with acne rash for two or three days; the second method is to insert a pox dipped in acne pulp into the nose. Cotton; the third dry method is to blow the fine powder of acne scab into the nose of the vaccinated person; the fourth water method is to mix the acne scab with water and thicken it and apply it into the nose.
The acne clothing method and the acne pulp method are the most convenient, but the most dangerous. If the doctor's time is not accurate, the vaccinated person will die or live five times. How can the people dare to get vaccinated easily? Although the seedling method is good, it is not something ordinary people can use, and it also comes with great risks. "
After listening to Xue Biao's words, Brother Rong felt that it was God's blessing that he could survive until now.
This method of vaccination is a bit too rough.
"Isn't there a way that has a higher probability of success and lower risk?"
"Yes. There is a method of growing mature seedlings, which should only be planted by rich and noble people. The scabs of patients with acne rash are used as the first seedlings. The first seedlings are sown and then harvested to become the second seedlings. The second seedlings are sown and then harvested to become the third seedlings. This repeats After seven times, it is a mature seedling." Xue Biao smiled and said: "What our Xue family grows is a mature seedling."
Jia Rong was a little confused when he heard this. He really underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. Isn't this mature vaccine method the same principle as the inactivated vaccine of later generations? It's just...this era is more brutal, and people are directly used to do the deactivation.
It is conceivable that such mature seedlings must be rare in the world. Although the success rate is high and the risk is relatively small, this method cannot ward off the pox epidemic.
Where are the labor costs and time costs?
Brother Rong was troubled by the thought. This epidemic might have a huge impact on the Ping'an Prefecture kiln factory.
What's even sadder is that no one knows how many people will...
The uncle is kind-hearted and hates seeing others suffer.
"Show me your favor and prepare a car to go to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion."
Uncle Rong was not the only one who was upset at this time.
The palace is now worried. A few days ago, Zhang Jing was asked about the situation and checked for acne. All the royal family members who had not been vaccinated were invited to the royal villa on the outskirts of Shen Jing.
Zhang Jing was also worried about the acne check. It didn't matter that he visited the Prince's Palace and the Prince's Palace from house to house. All the children of the royal family since the founding of the country had to be checked one by one.
His Royal Highness is also worried that acne never breaks out in just one small place. His worries were the same as those of the eight great imperial merchants in Jin. Among the eight cement kilns built in the past two years, three have suffered from acne.
The eldest prince is also worried. If things continue like this, will the spring siege of Tienwang Mountain be held as usual this year?
King Zhongshun was disappointed. Since the Emperor promoted vaccination, the scale of the pox epidemic has been significantly smaller. Even if he was worried, he was helpless, and even the palace and the palace deliberately kept the news secret from King Zhongshun.
The Thirteenth Master, who was recuperating at home, had no idea about the true situation of acne outside.
In other words, no one in Shenjing City knows the truth about acne outside.
Even the current emperor, who has spies all over the country and his royal guards in every province and state, doesn't understand.
