The winters in Xiazhou are too cold. It's the New Year, and without adults watching, they naturally wouldn't stay up all night. So after talking and warming by the fire, everyone returned to their rooms.
Bai Shan and the other two moved into the county governmental office early on, so not only were their rooms close, but their courtyards were also nearby. Once they were a distance away, the three began whispering, "I knew you had ulterior motives. Is that method of inoculation reliable?"
Manbao said, "I will research further, it will definitely be reliable." Plus, there's Teacher Mo. Recently, he's found quite a few remedies for smallpox for her, although not many were useful.
Bai Shan said in a low voice, "Don't say too much, just leak a bit to Imperial Doctor Lu. When we return to the capital, find someone to try the inoculation method. By the way, have you properly sealed the scabs you collected?"
