上二味共为细末。红枣煮汤。连肉和成条晒干。宜豫制给人。一凡房屋宽深者。自宜听
其在家。
谨慎将护。倘室庐狭隘。或不足以蔽风雨者。果能筹屋以备暂居。则更妙矣。并且随时酌借
帐被。
─每一小儿。宜给红兴布扎头一条。红稀布小褂一件。取其新洁而又和软也。若极贫之
儿。于冬令严寒之时。则当改给絮袄矣。此宜随时斟酌。
在于发热之时与之。以杜冒滥。既见点后。给灯油鱼馒钱。三百六十文。倘不守禁忌。
将护失宜。致生他症。设有不测者。亦宜量给小费。此虽万中之一。然不得不豫为之筹也。
─一岁之内。四时宜否。要在活人。非富贵之家。自种可比。但于五六七月间。借以深

。及四立二分二至之前一日。并年命刑冲破害。及岁煞灾煞劫煞。天克地冲比冲之日。
─凡验看小儿。以耳后筋纹为主。红而纹少者为上。纹多而色不紫赤者次之。若纹多而
色兼青
紫。此虽不可与种。然听其自出。则更难矣。宜赠以稀痘药。数服后。令其再诣师验看。
若转
为红色。则又宜亟为之种矣。此外如病后。或现有病。或未及周岁。皆当缓种。必俟其气血
和平。始与之种。除此以往。无不可种之儿也。稀痘药方附后。

以上两味药共同研磨成细粉。用红枣煮汤，将药粉与枣肉混合搓成条状，晒干。应当预先制作好分发给人。凡是房屋宽敞深邃的，自然应该听从其在家小心护理。如果居室狭小，或者不足以遮挡风雨，如果能筹划房屋以备暂时居住，那就更好了。并且随时酌情借用帐子和被子。
——每一个小儿，适宜给一条红兴布扎头巾，一件红稀布小褂，取其新鲜洁净而又柔软温和。如果是极其贫困的孩子，在冬季严寒的时候，就应当改给棉袄。这应当根据实际情况斟酌。
在孩子发热的时候给予这些衣物，以防止冒领滥用。既然已经见到痘点，给予灯油鱼馒钱三百六十文。如果不遵守禁忌，护理不当，导致产生其他病症，如果有意外情况，也应当酌情给予少量费用。这虽然是万中无一的情况，但也不得不预先筹划。
——一岁以内的孩子，四季是否适宜接种，关键在于灵活变通，不是富贵人家自己种植可以相比的。只是在五、六、七月间，借以深邃的房屋，少量种植，作为接苗的计划。其余各月，不妨随到随种，多多益善。下苗日期，应当避开破日、闭日，以及立春、立夏、立秋、立冬、春分、秋分、夏至、冬至的前一日，还有年命刑冲破害，以及岁煞、灾煞、劫煞、天克地冲比冲的日子。
——凡是验看小儿，以耳后筋纹为主。红色且纹路少的为上等，纹路多而颜色不紫赤的为次等。如果纹路多且颜色兼有青紫，这虽然不可以接种，但听其自然出痘，那就更难处理了。适宜赠送稀痘药，服用几剂后，让其再去请医生验看。如果转为红色，那么就又应当紧急为其接种了。此外如病后，或现有疾病，或未及周岁，都应当暂缓接种。必须等到其气血平和，才给予接种。除此之外，没有不可接种的孩子。稀痘药方附在后面。

葛根、生黄芩、酒黄芩、苍术（各二分）、细辛
生甘草、白术、陈皮、红花、苏木（各一分）
当归身、黄连（各三分）、吴茱萸（半分）
共同研磨成粗末。一周岁的孩子，每次用三钱，两三岁的孩子用五钱。在立春前一天，用东流水煎煮，调制朱砂服用。
制朱砂法
用当归、川芎、升麻、甘草（各六两）
东流水六大碗，新砂锅，桑柴文火煎至减半。倒出，滤去渣滓。用好朱砂四两，用绢包裹线扎紧。悬挂在离砂锅底一寸许处挂定。将前面过滤的药汤，陆续倒入锅内。用桑柴火缓慢煮，等到汤将干时，取起研成极细末。一岁的用量为一分。
下苗后，必须以七日为度，五脏传遍而后发热为标准。然而也有六日即发热的，也有九日、十一日才开始发热的。这是正常情况。如果在五日以前发热，此时痘苗之气尚未传遍，热从何而来？必定是因为护理不慎，导致犯外感内伤，或者已经染上时行之气，想要出天花。这与种痘无关。种痘师应当预先申明这一说法。如果超过十一日还不发热，适宜再次补种。

The above two herbs are ground together into a fine powder. Boil red dates in water to make a decoction. Mix the powder with the date flesh, form into strips, and dry them in the sun. It is advisable to prepare these in advance for distribution. For those whose houses are spacious and deep, it is naturally appropriate to listen to their wishes to stay at home and exercise caution in nursing care. If the living quarters are narrow or insufficient to shelter from wind and rain, if one can arrange temporary housing, that would be even better. Furthermore, borrow tents and quilts as needed according to circumstances.
—For each child, it is suitable to provide a headband made of Hongxing cloth and a small jacket made of thin red cloth, taking advantage of their freshness, cleanliness, softness, and mildness. For extremely poor children during the severe cold of winter, cotton-padded jackets should be provided instead. This should be adjusted according to the situation.
These items should be given when the child has a fever to prevent misuse. Once the smallpox spots appear, provide three hundred and sixty wen for lamp oil and fish cakes. If taboos are not observed and nursing is improper, leading to other symptoms, and if an unexpected incident occurs, a small fee should also be given proportionally. Although this is a case of one in ten thousand, preparation must be made in advance.
—For children under one year old, whether inoculation is suitable in all four seasons depends on flexible adaptation; it cannot be compared to planting by wealthy families. However, during May, June, and July, use deep and cool rooms to plant a small amount as a plan for seedling connection. In other months, planting can be done upon arrival, more is better. The date for planting should avoid days of Po (Break) and Bi (Close), as well as the day before Li Chun (Start of Spring), Li Xia (Start of Summer), Li Qiu (Start of Autumn), Li Dong (Start of Winter), Chun Fen (Spring Equinox), Qiu Fen (Autumn Equinox), Xia Zhi (Summer Solstice), and Dong Zhi (Winter Solstice). It should also avoid days of punishment, clash, destruction, and harm related to the year's destiny, as well as days of Sui Sha (Yearly Evil), Zai Sha (Disaster Evil), Jie Sha (Robbery Evil), Tian Ke Di Chong (Heavenly Clash Earthly Conflict), and Bi Chong (Parallel Clash).
—When examining children, focus primarily on the vein patterns behind the ears. Red color with few patterns is superior; many patterns with non-purple-red color is secondary. If there are many patterns with cyan-purple color, although inoculation is not suitable, allowing natural infection will be much harder to manage. It is suitable to gift Xidou medicine (medicine to thin out smallpox); after several doses, have the child re-examined by the doctor. If the color turns red, then urgent inoculation is recommended. Additionally, if the child is post-illness, currently ill, or under one year old, inoculation should be delayed. Wait until Qi and Blood are harmonious before proceeding. Apart from these, there are no children who cannot be inoculated. The Xidou medicine prescription is attached below.
Xiaodu Jiuku Tang (Disinfecting and Saving from Distress Decoction)

Dangguishen (Angelicae Sinensis Radix body), Huanglian (Coptidis Rhizoma) (each 3 fen), Wuzhuyu (Evodiae Fructus) (0.5 fen)
Grind all ingredients into a coarse powder. For a one-year-old child, use 3 qian per dose; for two-to-three-year-olds, use 5 qian. On the day before Li Chun, decoct with East-flowing water, mix with Zhusha (Cinnabar), and take warm.
Method for Preparing Zhusha (Cinnabar)
Use Danggui (Angelicae Sinensis Radix), Chuanxiong (Ligusticum Chuanxiong Rhizoma), Shengma (Cimicifugae Rhizoma), Gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) (each 6 liang).
Decoct in six large bowls of East-flowing water using a new clay pot over gentle fire from mulberry wood until reduced by half. Pour out, filter to remove dregs. Take 4 liang of high-quality Zhusha (Cinnabar), wrap in silk cloth, tie with thread, and suspend it about one cun above the bottom of the sand pot. Gradually add the filtered decoction into the pot. Simmer slowly over mulberry wood fire. When the liquid is nearly dry, remove, grind into an extremely fine powder. Dosage for one-year-old: 1 fen.
After planting the seedling, seven days is the standard; fever should occur only after the five zang organs have transmitted the qi. However, some may febrile on the sixth day, or start on the ninth or eleventh day. This is normal. If fever occurs before the fifth day, the seedling qi has not yet fully transmitted; where would the heat come from? It must be due to careless nursing causing external contraction or internal injury, or contracting epidemic qi intending to develop natural smallpox. This is unrelated to inoculation. The inoculator should clarify this beforehand. If fever does not occur after eleven days, supplementary inoculation is appropriate.
