You Mingyan's eyes turned slightly, and she said with a smile: "Little sister, don't worry. This time, the second sister really brought something rare. ”

As he spoke, he bent down to the bottom of the table and slipped out a square gift box, crisscrossed with many ribbons, and the big red gift box was painted with a gilded longevity character, which was obviously expensive.

You Mingshuang opened her eyes and said slanderously, "Is this something delicious?"

"This is a birthday gift for my father, open it and take a look. You Mingyan smiled and encouraged.

You Mingshuang was just about to stretch out her hand, Yan Wei quickly patted her little hand and scolded: "The girl is too unruly." The second sister congratulated the old man on his birthday, where is your turn to do it. ”

You Wangxi held his thigh and smiled, "It's okay. Today the lord is happy, there are not so many rules. ”

You Mingshuang glared at Yan Wei and snorted, "Look, Dad doesn't care much about it?"

Yan Wei secretly smiled bitterly, the so-called 'Doing things to others, how long can you get good'. I don't mind when I am favored, I don't mind when I break my sleeves, but once the color fades and I love to relax, it will be completely different.

The gift box was very tightly bandaged, and everyone worked hard for a long time to remove all the ribbons and layers of packaging outside.

When I opened it, the box was densely packed with dozens of golden round bullets, each of which was the size of a duck egg, and the word "longevity" was engraved on it.

"What kind of egg is this, it's so big?"

You Wangxi picked up one and checked it in a new way, estimating that there were always three or four taels, and there was no hard eggshell on the surface, and the end was unprecedented.

You Mingyan smiled: "This thing is called the Immortal Golden Egg." But the immortal master concocted a good delicacy according to the ancient recipe. Eating it can prolong life. After I heard about it, I found someone to order 60 pieces, which coincided with my father's 60th birthday. ”

The You family is full of dignitaries, and I have never seen any delicacies from the mountains and seas. However, this immortal golden egg is unheard of, and I heard that it is prepared by the immortal master, and the ancient recipe is delicious, so I dare not wait to ignore it.

Yan Wei said on the side: "It's still the second sister who is thoughtful. This kind of immortal family's top quality, just get a little bit for the master to taste. You're too much of a waste of money. Is it gilded on the outside? I used to only listen to the golden pill that persuaded the Immortal Eater family to live forever, but I didn't expect that now there is such a big golden egg, and this way of eating is getting more and more progressive. ”

You Mingyan smiled reservedly: "Isn't it just to be happy to give my father a birthday." This golden egg is a little more expensive than ordinary eggs and duck eggs. But nutrition is not the same? Even if you can't really live forever, it's good to nourish it. It's just a million pieces, and it's still worth the money. ”

You Mingshuang thought for a while, and shouted, "Sixty will cost 10,000 yuan." One costs one hundred and sixteen, this egg is really golden, it is so expensive. ”

You Mingyan smiled and said: "My silly sister, I'm talking about 10,000 yuan, it's good that this immortal's golden egg can be eaten in your mouth." If you change it to that ginseng fruit and peach, you won't have anywhere to buy it if you have money?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but gasp, no matter how rich the family, 600,000 to buy a basket of golden eggs can be regarded as spending money like running water, at best this is the golden egg of the fairy family, if it is replaced by ordinary eggs, with You Wangxi's love of wealth is like life, he can't sit down and cry.

In fact, as long as similar things are named in the name of health care and nutrition, or the titles of immortal master and ancient recipe, they can be worth ten times more, attracting some rich and wealthy people. As for the exact value, it becomes a question that does not need to be entangled. That's what people want, as long as they don't die.

When everyone heard You Mingyan say this, their expectations couldn't help but lower a little. Honestly, there are so many elixirs for longevity in the world. If well-known immortal products such as the queen mother's peach and ginseng fruit really bloom and bear fruit once every thousands of years, how can money measure it.

The next ones are like those emperors who sought immortals in ancient times, Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, and Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty.

Taking food is indeed a Taoist way of cultivation. But generally speaking, it needs to cooperate with Qi refining, and only by using Qi refining to improve your physique can you digest the pill first.

Mortals' stomachs are very weak, and they usually eat some grains, fruits, and springs. Many people with poor physical fitness will have diarrhea when they drink some cold water. When the emperor's physique is probably not too good, wine, sex, wealth, and qi are not suitable for taking food at all.

There is a folk saying that children should be given a cheap name to support them. This certainly smells of superstition, but there is some inevitability in it.

Giving a cheap name is actually a problem of the parent's mentality in the process of parenting, or because of the embarrassment of family conditions. On the contrary, children are given the ability to resist harsh environments from an early age. On the contrary, like a wealthy family, it is like a palm bead, afraid of heat in summer and freezing in winter, and once you have a minor illness, you may die.

The way of taking food is all this truth, in ancient times, those who took food to become immortals were generally in a remote wilderness, eating some pine nuts, wild fruits, cold springs, white hair, and a state of no people and no ghosts. Over time, some experience was gained. It is about eating only what is naturally grown, and the stomach and intestines can probably return to the state of drinking blood.

The diet of mid-summer is particularly developed, and the biggest feature is cooked food. All kinds of cooking, blending, frying, stir-frying. Some countries in Tessie are happy to eat raw food, so the hair is more vigorous, which may also be due to this.

............

The immortal golden egg is far more expensive than ordinary nutrition in terms of price, and the You family sisters are all well-off, and no one is inferior to this mouthful, and they don't feel as wonderful as You Mingyan said.

You Wangxi took the golden egg and observed for a moment, and hesitated: "How to eat this thing." ”

You Mingyan smiled: "Like a birthday cake, just bite it directly." ”

You Wangxi sighed, opened his mouth and took a bite on the golden egg, frowned and chewed a few times, and nodded slowly: "It's not bad." ...... Come, taste them all. ”

Ming Qin looked at the gap he had bitten, but it was different from the golden color outside, but like white flour.

You Mingshuang glanced at Yan Wei and said coquettishly, "I want to eat, I want to eat." ”

You Mingyan said enthusiastically: "Don't be polite to your own family." With so many pieces, Dad can't eat it alone. Let's try one, everybody. ”

As she spoke, she distributed it, Yan Wei hurriedly thanked her, and You Mingshuang was already impatiently opening her neat teeth and clucking.

You ** and You Mingzhu waved their hands and humbly, after all, the price of golden eggs is not cheap, and it is a birthday gift from You Mingyan, and the two don't want to eat her for nothing.

The two sides gave in for a long time, and You ** hesitated: "I have a bad appetite recently, and I am the second sister with a lot of enthusiasm." I'll share one with my third sister. ”

"yes. The second sister is too polite. You Mingzhu smiled faintly.

You Mingshuang took a bite and chewed carefully, her slender eyebrows gradually frowned, and she hurriedly found a paper basket and spit it in, and said repeatedly: "It's so unpalatable." It's unpalatable. ”

Yan Wei was embarrassed and scolded: "You girl, why are you ruining things like this, don't you know how valuable this thing is?"

Saying that, he looked at You Mingyan apologetically and smiled, and took a bite elegantly. After chewing two bites, I felt that the taste was not very delicious, so I wanted to swallow it, so I might as well have a burst of nausea in my throat, and hurriedly dragged the paper basket through the retching for a while, and my white face turned red.

You Mingyan's smile stiffened slightly, the golden egg is so valuable, naturally I have never tried it, and it is not surprising that the nutritional products inevitably have some taste of decoction. But Yan Wei's mother and daughter's performance made her very embarrassed.

You ** was originally not very interested, but at this time, he couldn't help but be curious, and took a slight sip. handed it to You Mingzhu and said, "Third sister, you can also taste it." ”

You Mingzhu looked at Yan Wei's embarrassed appearance, and turned to Ming Qin and said, "Qinzhi, you can eat." ”

Ming Qin was curious about this golden egg, and when he heard the words, he took it, chewed some sweet earthy taste, broke off a piece of it with his hand and looked at it carefully, almost laughing.

It turns out that this golden egg is a common clay in the mortal world, commonly known as Guanyin soil, which is a raw material for making ceramics. Because the texture is sticky. In the old years, natural disasters **, when the hungry people could not survive, they would be used to relieve temporary hunger. Guanyin soil is difficult to digest when eaten in the stomach, and it cannot be excreted, and the result will only be bloated and died.

I don't know where the unscrupulous traders are whimsical. The shape of a duck egg is coated with a layer of gold dust and sold at a high price. In the name of immortality, it has become a rarity.

Ming Qin's mind turned slightly, and he smiled: "I've seen this thing, but your way of eating it is wrong, it's really a waste of this kind of food." ”

You Wangxi also felt that it was not very delicious, and he barely swallowed a few mouthfuls and was a little lacking in interest. Hearing this, he was surprised: "Do you want to ask?"

Ming Qin said confidently: "This kind of golden egg is originally an earth-quality mineral, just like the popular Wushisan in the Wei and Jin dynasties. ”

"What do you think of it?"

You Mingyan was self-defeating and disgraced. Suddenly, I heard Mingqin talk about other ways to eat golden eggs, and I didn't feel refreshed.

Ming Qin turned the Qiongyu bottle out, reached into the sleeve and touched it, and took out a white jade bottle more than half a foot long, the jade was warm and delicate, exuding a soft luster.

"Trouble you to find a few utensils. Fill another basin with water. ”

"I'll go. You Mingyan stood up from the table and asked, "I don't know what kind of utensils Mu Gongzi needs?"

"Bowls and basins will do. Mingqin replied casually.

You Mingyan nodded, and hurriedly instructed the maid to do it.

After a while, two maids arrived in front and back. One person is holding a porcelain bowl, and the other is carrying a basin of water.

Mingqin motioned for the two of them to put their things on the table. Picked up the water and filled it into the net bottle for seven or eight minutes, hugged it to his front and shook it a few times, there were words in his mouth, and everyone who saw it was unfathomable, and their eyes widened one by one, and they didn't dare to take a sip.

After a while, Mingqin put a few empty bowls on the table, and poured the net bottles one by one. It's strange to say, it's obviously a mediocre basin of water, but after such a turnover of the net bottle, it suddenly turns into a faint blue color, revealing a faint aroma of wine.

Ming Qin picked up the golden egg and threw it into the bowl, the soil melted into the water, Ming Qin picked up a silver spoon and stirred it evenly, clapped his hands and said, "It's okay, who will taste it." ”

After swallowing it raw, almost everyone understood the taste of golden eggs, and they didn't think that it would taste much better when mixed with water.

Seeing that no one agreed, You Mingyan had no choice but to volunteer: "I'll come." ”

As he spoke, he didn't bother to look at the wine bowl, closed his eyes and took a sip, which showed a sweet fragrance in his mouth, and went down his throat without paying attention.

You Mingyan smacked her lips, feeling that the taste was acceptable. He took a few sips in one goo, nodded and said, "It seems that we are indeed eating in the wrong way." ”

Ming Qin smiled secretly in his heart, this Qiongyu bottle is one of the three treasures that Fan Xiaoluan gave to the Mu family, in fact, it is also a bit of a subordinate for Wan Daiqing, which is not precious.

The advantage of the Qiongyu bottle is that it can be stored with some water, and it can be turned into Qiongyu liquid in just a few moments, and it is fragrant. Ming Qin just pretended to do it, but it was just a pretense, this is still a long time for Qing Shui Han to mix, if it can be put aside for a day and a night, the smell of wine can gradually come out.

As for the Guanyin soil, most of them are sunk at the bottom of the bowl, so that the smell of wine is covered, and I think that the bowl of muddy water can have anything to drink, but this kind of occasion must not be exposed in person, so I have to make a mistake.

You Mingyan took the lead in trying, Yan Wei naturally wanted to save face, and drank a bowl of You Wangxi each, praising the benefits of golden eggs.

You Wangxi had tasted the golden egg, after all, he had some eyesight, and asked, "Mu ...... Qinzhi, this bottle of yours seems unusual, but what is the origin?"

Ming Qin laughed and said, "Don't hide it from Master You, this is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation by my Mu family." It is said that it is also a fairy artifact, and it only needs to store some water to turn it into elixir and jade liquid. After drinking for a long time, you can rejuvenate and prolong your life?"

"It's so useful. You Wangxi sighed and was greatly moved.

"Yes," Ming Qin said, "This time I came to Beijing, my father specially asked me to carry the treasure bottle and hand it over to Uncle Shiying. coincided with Master You's 60th birthday, and his uncle and aunt had a pure heart of filial piety and wanted to dedicate the vase to Master You. I'm afraid that small things don't become respectful, and the lord and lady can't see it?"

"Where, where. You Wangxi smiled, his eyes were fixed on the treasure bottle, and he humbly said: "But since it is the ancestral treasure of your Mu family, how can the old man win people's love?"

"Uncles and aunts are kind by nature, and this thing is not enough to talk about the heart. Ming Qin smiled lightly and pushed the treasure bottle into You Mingzhu's arms.

"Dad, this is my birthday gift for you with Shiying. I wish you many blessings and a long and evergreen life. ”

You Mingzhu didn't expect Ming Qin's mind to change so much, first he attracted You Wangxi's attention by blending the golden eggs, and then he pushed the boat down the river and said that it was a family heirloom, raising his own value. Listening to her, she was also cloudy and foggy, and her heart was pounding, for fear that he would talk too much nonsense and find it difficult to justify herself.

You ** smiled: "The third sister even took the family heirloom, and my sister can't compare to you." I asked a craftsman to make a jade Buddha for my father. I wish you good health and longevity. (To be continued.) )
