Chapter 314: 314 Getting a Vaccine

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Jiang Chuan had Zhou Lan take Jiang Gu back home first while he took Jiang Xia to the hospital in town.

As the two walked towards the village entrance, Jiang Xia reminded Jiang Chuan, “Dad, we need to get a pass to enter the town or county.”

Only then did Jiang Chuan remember. He couldn’t help but say,” It’s so troublesome to travel in this era!”

If they were just going to town for trade, they could just secretly drive there. However, they were going to the hospital to get a vaccine. Without pass, they really couldn’t enter.

Jiang Chuan was anxious. He pulled Jiang Xia toward the production team. After they received the certificate, Chen Xing warmly suggested, “Jiang Chuan, take my donkey cart. It’s faster.”

To their surprise, the donkey seemed scared upon seeing Jiang Xia and refused to move.

Chen Xing grumbled, “Of all times for this donkey to be stubborn!”

Jiang Chuan was about to decline, since he had the HUV, which was much faster.

However, Chen Xing had another idea. “Take my bicycle. It’s a bit tiring, but it’s fast!”

This was the bicycle Chen Xing had saved up for over three months to buy. He treasured it so much that he usually didn’t allow anyone to touch it. Yet today, he was willing to offer it. He’d heard that Jiang Chuan had visited Zhou Fang’s house as soon as he returned. Knowing the two shared a special bond, he acted even friendlier toward Jiang Chuan.

Seeing that he couldn’t refuse such kindness, Jiang Chuan reluctantly accepted.

Chen Xing’s bicycle had a bar in front of the seat. Jiang Chuan placed Jiang Xia on it, expressed his gratitude, mounted the bicycle, and rode off.

Jiang Chuan rode for two miles until there was no one around. He then stopped, took out his car, stored the bicycle in the trunk, and then drove towards the county town.

Given they were heading to a hospital, the county town’s resources were certainly superior to those in the smaller town.

The county hospital was bustling. Jiang Chuan went to register, letting Jiang Xia wait in the main hall.

There was a mix-up during registration. The nurse at the registration desk had an accent, which Jiang Chuan couldn’t understand. The nurse told him to go to the third floor, but Jiang Chuan kept asking where to go. Finally, the nurse became angry, slammed the desk, stood up, and shouted, “Third floor!”

Jiang Chuan had a short temper, and getting shouted at made him even angrier. “Do you know that the patient is in a hurry to get an injection? If you don’t speak clearly and then get angry at others, tell me your name, I’m going to complain about you right now!”

Jiang Xia had rarely seen Jiang Chuan lose his temper. It was the first time she witnessed Jiang Chuan getting so angry on her behalf. Deep down, she felt touched, realizing her dad truly loved her!

Jiang Xia tugged at Jiang Chuan, trying to calm him down, and he eventually relented.

The two continued towards the third floor. Along the way, Jiang Chuan kept grumbling, “She cant speak clearly and still getting angry at me. I’m going to complain!”

“Dad, there’s no such thing as complaining in this era.”

“… Hmph, 1 won’t come next time!”

It’s not like the hospital will miss one patient…

Jiang Chuan glanced at the back of Jiang Xia’s hand, his eyes filled with concern. Jiang Xia had prepared comforting words for her dad, things like ‘It doesn’t hurt, don’t worry.’

But all Jiang Chuan remarked was, “If it were any later, the wound might have already healed.”

Jiang Xia thought,”… Is it illegal to hit my dad?”

After Jiang Xia received her injection, Jiang Chuan finally felt relieved. As they leisurely made their way out, he suddenly stopped and backtracked, standing in front of an office door.

Curious, Jiang Xia asked, “What’s the matter, dad?”

Jiang Chuan stared at the doctor sitting inside the office and asked Jiang Xia, “Doesn’t this person look familiar?”

Thinking about it, Jiang Xia agreed. Upon closer examination, she realized the doctor resembled the old scholar from the pharmacy, just younger with black hair and no white strands.

Jiang Xia curiously mused, “Could they be father and son?”

Jiang Chuan nodded, “Perhaps. Since we’re already in town, why not go to the pharmacy and exchange our herbs?”

Jiang Xia agreed. They found a secluded spot and took out the matured fleece-flower root, motherwort, and prepared rehmannia, placing them in a basket, and headed directly to the pharmacy.

The old scholar remembered the duo well. This time, instead of being indifferent like before, he greeted them with a warm smile, “Are you here to exchange for the isatis root again?”

Jiang Xia flashed a sweet smile, “Grandpa, we’re here to exchange different herbs this time!”

The old scholar’s curiosity was piqued. He came around the counter to inspect the herbs they brought.

To his astonishment, there was a basket full of fleece-flower root and half a basket each of prepared rehmannia and motherwort.

The old scholar asked uncertainly, “Are you sure you aren’t from a herb production base? This many herbs doesn’t seem like something you’d find on a mountain..”
