Chapter 231 Getting a Vaccine

She thought it was fantastic. As long as the baby's character was good, he could just be a lazy person. Anyway, she had plenty of money in her space, so raising a few more babies wouldn't be a problem.

Mrs. Huo felt a little worried, but looking at her two adorable babies, her brows relaxed.

never mind.

Children and grandchildren have their own destinies, and she can't think too much about it.

All she needs to do now is raise her two babies; as for everything else, she can let things take their natural course.

"I'll cook lunch, Mom. What would you like to eat?" Shen Zhixia asked.

She's on vacation today and doesn't have anything to do. Her cooking skills are getting better and better, and she can cook more and more dishes now.

Mrs. Huo doesn't care what she eats, but considering her two babies, she said, "Let's steam a bowl of egg custard, the babies like it."

The two babies are already eating complementary foods, and they eat a lot. They eat soft foods like egg custard without any problem, and they also have two teeth, so they can chew a lot of things.

Shen Zhixia said, "Mom, don't always think about them. You work so hard taking care of the children, you should get some nourishment."

Mrs. Huo waved her hand and said, "Then just make something simple. I have no interest in food."

Shen Zhixia shook her head and went to the kitchen. There was nothing in the kitchen except for two potatoes. She had plenty of food in her space, but it would be too conspicuous for her to take out so much stuff out of thin air.

Besides, it's not a famine now, so there's no need to keep taking food from inside.

Shen Zhixia then went to the service shop. She was lucky today; they even had a piece of excellent beef. Beef was scarce in this era and wasn't available all the time; you could only come across it once or twice a month.

Seeing Shen Zhixia staring at the piece of beef, the salesperson said enthusiastically, "You want to buy beef? Today's beef is really good, there are only three pieces left, and now there's only one left."

Shen Zhixia knew that good beef was usually given to people with connections first, and only the remaining beef was sold.

She nodded: "Weigh me."

Okay.

Shen Zhixia selected some more radishes; she planned to make stewed beef today.

Nowadays, most people eat pork, and beef is a rare commodity, so its price is naturally high. However, beef is high in protein and good for your health, so Shen Zhixia is willing to spend the money.

When she got back, Shen Zhixia stewed beef, radish, and potatoes. She also took a bottle of red wine from her space, poured some into the stew, and fried an egg.

When Huo's mother saw this, she came over to help and stir-fried some pumpkin shreds.

Huo Chenzhou was probably busy with work at noon and didn't come back, so Shen Zhixia ate lunch with Huo's mother. After lunch, Huo Chunyan came to inform Shen Zhixia in her work clothes: "Sister-in-law, it's time to get the child vaccinated today."

"What kind of vaccination?" Shen Zhixia asked.

Huo Chunyan said, "The measles live attenuated vaccine is a vaccine to prevent measles, and it's given to children."

Shen Zhixia nodded: "Then we'll go get it after we finish eating."

Since it's a vaccine to prevent disease, it's naturally better to get vaccinated.

Huo Chunyan nodded: "Then remember to come later, I'll go and inform the others first."

"good."

After a while, Zhang Weihong came to find Shen Zhixia. She was still holding Wang Xiaojian's hand. Wang Xiaojian's face was full of fear and rejection. Zhang Weihong held him tightly, not letting him run away.

Wang Xiaojian exclaimed in fear, "My goodness, can I not get the vaccine?"

Zhang Weihong sneered, "Impossible. You escaped last time. Let me tell you, you have to fight this time."

Shen Zhixia found this scene amusing and couldn't help but smile.

Looking at the two babies, they didn't understand anything yet. They were playing with their fingers in a silly way. Because they were going out later, Huo's mother was helping them get dressed. The clothes had to be thick so that they wouldn't get cold.

Shen Zhixia said, "Mom, you don't need to dress them in such thick clothes. They're going to get vaccinated later, and they'll need to get injections in their arms."

Wang Xiaojian looked at the two babies, walked up to them, and muttered, "You two need to get shots too? How pitiful. Let me tell you, shots are scary. They have to poke your skin with sharp needles, and you'll bleed. You're so small, tsk tsk, it'll only hurt more."

The two babies didn't understand at all; they just blinked. This knowledge was beyond their comprehension, so they didn't react at all.

Wang Xiaojian pointed to his hand in praise, then poked it, before contorting himself into a deathly expression.

"Wang Xiaojian, are you being a jerk again?" Zhang Weihong angrily twisted him around.

Shen Zhixia smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, he's just a child, don't take it to heart."

“My child is already quite old, and this thing he gave birth to is going to drive me crazy.”

Zhang Weihong was angry, but she didn't forget the purpose of her visit: "Zhixia, let's go get our vaccinations together."

This time it's for children to get vaccinated. Adults don't need to participate, but they need to bring their children. And this time the vaccination is free, which is a great deal. If they miss this opportunity, they probably won't have another chance like this in the future.

Shen Zhixia nodded and said, "Okay."

Mrs. Huo had already dressed the two babies, so she and Mrs. Huo each carried one baby and went to the health center with Zhang Weihong.

There were many people coming to get vaccinated, after all, there were a lot of children in the family compound, including babies. After the babies in front of me got their vaccinations, they started crying loudly. The crying was very noisy, and some babies would not cooperate, making it difficult for the nurses to give the injections.

The entire health center was extremely noisy, practically in an uproar.

Zhang Weihong said speechlessly, "I really want it to end quickly so I can go back."

It's so noisy here now, she really doesn't want to stay here.

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhixia nodded in agreement.

Who can argue with that? She didn't really want to stay here any longer, but there was nothing she could do but wait until the baby finished his vaccination. She and Zhang Weihong arrived late, so they were at the back of the line and had to wait a while before they could get their shots.

Looking at her baby, Zhang Weihong said enviously, "Your children are truly here to repay a debt of gratitude. They are so well-behaved, they don't cry at all. Look, all the babies around are crying, but they are so quiet."

"Huh? Is it quiet?" Shen Zhixia was stunned.

"Yes, they are so quiet and well-behaved. I have never seen such well-behaved babies before. I wish they were my babies," Zhang Weihong said enviously.
