Iris Harris pursed her lips at the mention: "Herbal medicine."
She didn't like it.
She didn't like bitter things.
Brandan Hyde reached up and gently stroked her long hair, "I'll ask Sister Jade to add more sugar."

For the sake of having a child, Iris Harris had to start taking herbal medicine.
She was addicted to sweets, yet now she had to drink a bowl of bitter herbal medicine every night after dinner. Even if Brandan Hyde would immediately give her a handful of preserved fruits afterward, it couldn't help her forget the shadow of the medicine.
The bitterness made Iris suspect that the herbalist was messing with her, adding ten times the amount of coptis root.
But she still drank it.
More than the bitterness, she wanted a child.
She knew that as she got older, it would become increasingly difficult to have a child. If they didn't lay a foundation now, they might really end up without offspring.
