Under Nanny Zhang's kind and gentle smile, Tian Tian drank two-thirds of the bowl of thick traditional medicine with a pained expression, as if battling for her life. The last third, she really couldn't drink it down. She felt like she would throw up if she drank any more.
Nanny Zhang didn't say much more, perhaps knowing that she truly couldn't drink any more.
"Drink it once every three days. Next time I'll add a bit more brown sugar; it might taste a bit better."
Tian Tian: "..."
She could only think that traditional medicine, passed down for thousands of years, really wasn't something that a bit more sugar could mask the taste of!
After Nanny Zhang went into the kitchen, Tian Tian got up and followed her in.
Just as she was about to find something sweet to drink, she saw Nanny Zhang hand her a cup of honey water.
"Madam, drink some of this to ease the bitterness in your mouth."
