Chapter 44 Hangover Soup (1 / 2)



the next day,

Jingguang opened his eyes as his biological clock woke up, and what came into view was the fresh air and the melodious birdsong.

It seemed like he had a pleasant dream last night. Although he forgot what it was, the remaining good mood made him feel full of energy.

Glancing at Mr. Hua who was still sleeping, Jing Guang carefully took out a book from his bag and began to read in the rising sunlight outside.

The entire action was performed without making any sound.

According to his usual habits, he should have started exercising by now.

But since he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, he did not go out.

Mr. Hua and Mr. Lin were drinking with a close friend, so they inevitably drank a little too much last night. Both old men slept until nearly ten o'clock.

There was a knock on the door.

It was Sister Moon who brought the hangover soup. Jing Guang thanked her and brought it to the bedside and handed it to the master with both hands. Mr. Hua took it in his hand and sniffed it, but did not drink it. Instead, he suddenly asked,

"Xiao Guang, can you smell the ingredients in Moon's hangover soup?"

"The color is clear red with some green, and there is a subtle sweet smell at the tip of the nose. It should be the decoction of mung beans, licorice, and brown sugar."

"Um."

Mr. Hua nodded with satisfaction.

This material sounds simple, not like a prescription.

But Chinese medicine does not necessarily require the use of herbal medicine to treat diseases. Some common ingredients can also be good remedies.

For example, the common coix seed, red dates, and the gray-gray vegetable which is considered a wild vegetable.

People outside of China often have misunderstandings about Chinese medicine, thinking that it must use precious herbs or that the more and more detailed the types of herbs, the better the doctor!

Actually, it is not.

A truly good Chinese medicine practitioner should use simple medicines, small amounts, and be able to prescribe the right medicine for the disease!

Once the number of medicinal materials reaches more than a dozen, it can only mean that the Chinese medicine practitioner has not accumulated enough experience, or...

It is to make money and profit.

It's not that they didn't treat illnesses and save lives.

But interests take precedence over conscience.

I think of some of the young people I have seen who, after learning the basics, began to use the same prescription to treat all patients with the same disease.

Mr. Hua shook his head and sighed.

However, faced with this situation,

The old man was powerless. All he could do was stick to his principles.

There is no point in thinking too much. What we should do now is to teach our disciples well.

"What else? How much of the recipe for the Kudzu Flower Hangover Soup do you remember? Can I use it?"

The old man stretched out his right hand, motioned Jingguang to feel his pulse,

"The "Yi Fang Ji Jie" records the Kudzu Flower Decoction for Hangover Relief:

50 cents each of white cardamom seeds, Amomum villosum, and kudzu flowers, dried ginger, Shenqu (fried until yellow), Alisma orientalis, Atractylodes macrocephala (20 cents each), tangerine peel (remove the white part), Poria cocos (remove the skin), ginseng (remove the stem), white Poria cocos (15 cents each), costus root 5 cents, and lotus green peel (remove the pulp).
