I caught a cold because of a cold. Although I was not too ill, I didn't get better for several days. I ate western medicine for several days. That day, my mother took me to the hospital to see an old Chinese doctor, who gave me a prescription of Chinese medicine. I came home, ready to eat Chinese medicine.
This is my first time to take Chinese medicine. I wonder what it tastes like. Mother put the Chinese medicine into the Chinese medicine jar and began to suffer. It's fried. My mother took it to my bed and put it on the bedside table. I looked at the black Chinese medicine, but I couldn't drink it. My mother began to persuade me: "Just drink it." However, I can't drink anything my mother says. Mother had no choice but to add a spoonful of sugar to it. Mom said: "Chinese medicine with sugar has changed greatly, not only is it not bitter, but it will also taste like heaven." Seduced by my mother, I swallowed it in one gulp. At the moment I drank Chinese medicine, my insides seemed to turn over. I spit out the Chinese medicine I drank at once. I must look terrible, but anyone who has seen it will be scared.
The next day, I began to eat another pair of Chinese medicine, and this time it was really difficult for me to swallow that horrible Chinese medicine. When my mother saw this, she even came up with a reason to persuade me. She said: "A good medicine tastes bitter and is good for illness, but advice that is hard to hear is good for action." This time, I had no choice but to swallow the Chinese medicine in one gulp. My mother's words have a great influence on me.
After two days, my condition improved. I hated Chinese medicine at first, and then I liked and accepted Chinese medicine. These are all my mother's words, which impressed me deeply. That sentence made me realize the role of Chinese medicine and feel the value of the Central Plains.
This is a simple experience and a harvest of life.
