I relied on a system to prolong my life in ancient times.

Chapter 365 Xiao Siyue's Smallpox Inoculation

"My lord, where should we look for smallpox vaccine?"

"Dr. An, leave this to me. I'll send someone to investigate. I'm sure there will be some in the capital."

"Well, once we find it, could I personally go and collect the sap?" Doctor An made a small request.

“Of course.” Xiao Qinian was thinking that after Doctor An learned it, he would have him teach other doctors. Moreover, he felt more at ease having Doctor An fetch it.

Xiao Qinian was quite capable. Within two days, he found a cow with smallpox at a farmhouse outside the capital. For the sake of what was to come, Xiao Qinian even had someone buy the cow.

As a result, the family refused, so Xiao Qinian bought another good cow and swapped it with them.

The family was naturally delighted to accept the offer; exchanging a cow infected with smallpox for a healthy one was a win for them.

Yangyang's health has basically recovered, and the daily application and administration of medicine can be left to Xiao Siqi and the other person.

Dr. An devoted himself to research on smallpox vaccination.

After Dr. An finished collecting the smallpox vaccine, he watched as Xiao Qinian led him to Xiao Siyue's courtyard. He was somewhat surprised, but this person belonged to the eldest daughter of the Xiao family.

But when he entered the house and Xiao Qinian said that he was going to vaccinate Xiao Siyue, he was completely stunned and looked at Xiao Qinian in disbelief.

Xiao Siyue immediately realized that Dr. An had misunderstood and quickly explained.

"Dr. An, this is my own request. I feel that this method will not cause any problems, so I want to give it a try."

"Miss Xiao is so righteous. If she succeeds, she will be the benefactor of all the children in the world." Doctor An looked at Xiao Siyue with admiration. A young girl disregarded her own safety and dared to do such a dangerous thing. She was much better than him, an old man, and even more impressive than many men.

"Dr. An, you flatter me." Xiao Siyue smiled and said nothing more.

Xiao Siyue exposed one arm. Dr. An carefully but quickly made a small incision on Xiao Siyue's upper arm and then applied cowpox spore paste to the wound.

The wound was very small, with only a single drop of blood flowing out, and Xiao Siyue didn't feel any pain.

After vaccination, you just need to wait for the reaction to occur, which takes a long time, probably three to five days.

Dr. An has not returned for several days and is bidding farewell to Xiao Qinian today.

"My lord, I must leave to return home. I will come back tomorrow to check on things. If anything happens in the meantime, I hope you will send someone to inform me, and I will come immediately."

"Yes, I'll have someone send Doctor An back." Xiao Qinian nodded. He actually hoped that Doctor An would stay at the Xiao residence so that any situation could be resolved immediately.

After seeing Dr. An off, Xiao Qinian came to Xiao Siyue's place to give her some instructions, telling her to keep a close eye on Xiao Siyue.

On the third day, a small red spot appeared on Xiao Siyue's arm, and she immediately notified Dr. An.

Over the next few days, the red spots slowly turned into blisters, and then into pustules.

The Xiao family members were initially unaware of the situation until they noticed that Dr. An, who had previously treated Xiao Yiyang, frequently visited Xiao Siyue, which made them realize something was amiss.

At first, they thought Xiao Siyue had been infected by Xiao Yiyang, and her aunt felt very guilty about it.

Xiao Siyue had no choice but to explain the situation, and as a result, Xiao Qinian was severely scolded by the Xiao family elders and Xiao's eldest and second uncles.

Lin Qin has ignored Xiao Qinian for several days, treating him like air, and won't let him go back to his room to sleep.

The younger generation of the Xiao family dared not lecture Xiao Qinian, but they all disapproved of his actions.

As for Xiao Siyue, he was the apple of his family's eye. He had initially pleaded for his father's life because he felt sorry for him, but seeing Lin Qin's crying face, he could only feel sorry for Xiao Qinian in the end.

"Miss Xiao, how are you feeling right now?" Doctor An asked Xiao Siyue, holding a pen.

"Yes, the area where the pustules appeared is a little painful and itchy, but it's bearable, and I don't feel anything else." With only a small area of ​​pustules on her arm, Xiao Siyue knew the purpose of her vaccination and answered Dr. An's questions truthfully.

Xiao Siyue didn't feel much, but Lin Qin felt very sorry for her.

But then she remembered that it was her daughter's own doing, and said irritably, "Serves you right for being so reckless. Now you deserve to be in pain and itchy."

Even so, Lin Qin still pulled Xiao Siyue's arm and examined her carefully.

"Mom~~" Xiao Siyue grabbed Lin Qin's hand and acted coquettishly.

"Mom, it doesn't hurt much. It's much easier than Yangyang's. And judging from the current situation, it seems to have been successful. Our children will never have to worry about smallpox again."

"Alright, alright, I can't argue with you. If you dare to do something so dangerous again, you'll be punished along with your father." Lin Qin gently tapped Xiao Siyue on the head.

"Yes, Mother, don't worry, I definitely won't do it," Xiao Siyue quickly assured her.

Then I thought of my father, who was still sleeping in the study, and my conscience ached a little. Should I plead for my father's life?

Xiao Siyue tentatively asked, "Mom, when do you plan to let Dad go back to his room to sleep?"

"Hmph, he's sleeping in the room, isn't he? Do you think I'd let him sleep outside?" Lin Qin got angry just thinking about Xiao Qinian. At first, she thought Xiao Qinian was going to use her daughter as an experiment. The disappointment and heartache she felt at that moment almost made her breathless.

Later, when he found out it was his daughter who had asked for it, he was still a little angry. His daughter was still young and acting recklessly, but was he also a child? Why didn't he stop her and just let her act recklessly?

Moreover, she made the decision on her own without even discussing it with her family. What will she do if something goes wrong?

Let her sleep a little longer in the study so she can remember this lesson.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Siyue knew that her mother was pretending to be confused, but she felt that her father was really pitiful.

"Mom, I meant for Dad to go back to your bedroom." Dad has his beautiful wife at home, but he sleeps in the study. How sad must he be? If he doesn't go back, her uncles will laugh at him.

"I want to go back to the bedroom and wait until he realizes his mistake before I talk to him about it."

"Mother, Father already knows he was wrong, please let him go back," Xiao Siyue continued to plead.

"Hmph." Lin Qin snorted again, but didn't say anything more, knowing that her mother had agreed.

Overjoyed, she knew she had to tell her father the good news as soon as possible.

However, she needed her father to agree to one condition: she wanted to go out for a while, but her family would definitely disagree, so she left the task of persuading her family to her father.

Xiao Qinian had no idea that his daughter was digging another hole for him.
