Madam Tang was very curious. "Why are you always vaccinating for smallpox? Last time you came you also said you were going to vaccinate."
"It's a different vaccine," Manbao turned her head and gave Madam Tang a bright smile. "We'll keep researching new, safer vaccines. When the time comes, your three children can all get it."
Madam Tang: "...They… don't need to, right?"
Manbao said, "If they're going to travel far, it's still safer to get it. Children aren't like adults; actually the risk is even lower. Right now our test subjects are all between fourteen and twenty‑five, but next batch we'll choose from twelve to nineteen, and later we'll lower it to around seven. When the time comes you can look at the data."
Madam Tang: ...She didn't want to look at it at all.
Manbao waved at her and strolled back to the imperial estate.
At this time, Bai Shan and the others were still waiting at the Ministry of Rites' exam venue.
