Chapter 82 Live Forever
"Tell me!" Alexander said, and his eyes were full of expectations.
The family doctor said, "The meat you asked me to test is mussel meat, which is rich in protein, fat, sugar, and minerals. It is high in vitamins and calcium, which can strengthen the body and promote growth and development. It has extremely high medicinal value. But..."
"But what?" Alexander became worried.
"According to my preliminary analysis, the meat is obviously different from that of ordinary mussels. I don't know if it's because of the age, but the quality of its meat is very special, and it has special effects on people..."
"Ivy, did you hear that? The meat is not fresh at all, and it has gone bad!" Alexander's face was ugly.
"No, it's very fresh. It was caught yesterday..."
Ivy knew better than anyone that although the mussel was more aged than other mussels, it only took one day and one night from being caught to being roasted. The mussel meat had been kept in the refrigerator by Blake, and it wouldn't go bad.
The family doctor said, "Mr. Ashford, you misunderstood me. I didn't say the meat has gone bad. What I mean is that because this mussel has lived for too long, its meat has a special effect on the human body..."
"What effect?" Everyone asked.
"It will prolong life and even make people live forever!" The family doctor said, "I can't find out the exact age of this mussel, but I guess that it should have lived for seven or eight hundred years. It is a very rare long-lived mussel.
"Its meat can remove diseases and enhance skin elasticity. In other words, it can make people stay young forever. If you eat more, you can keep healthy and prolong your life. To put it bluntly, you will live forever."
"You're not kidding, are you?" Alexander couldn't believe what his family doctor said.
In this way, would Ivy and the fifth daughter live forever?
The family doctor said, "Mr. Ashford, I don't dare to joke. I'm telling the truth. Is there any meat left? I want to try and experiment with myself. I want to see what kind of effect it will have."
"No, I've eaten it up," Ivy said angrily.
"Have you eaten it all by yourself?" The family doctor looked envious.
"the fifth daughter also ate a little. The others thought the meat was poisonous and dared not eat it."
Ivy thought that the doctor was skillful, so she took out a piece of the mussel shell she brought.
"Doctor, this is the shell of the mussel. Can you test it to see if it has any special ingredients? Maybe it has the same effect."
"Okay!" The family doctor took the shell and quickly returned to his laboratory.
Alexander came to the fifth daughter and asked with great concern, "The fifth daughter, how do you feel after eating the mussel meat?"
The fifth daughter suddenly started panting, clutching her stomach, and said, "I feel so uncomfortable, like being poisoned..."
"What?" Alexander immediately picked up the fifth daughter and was about to send her to the family doctor.
The fifth daughter suddenly giggled and said, "Dad, let me down. My stomach doesn't hurt..."
Alexander put down the fifth daughter with an ugly face. "Why are you so naughty? Are you going to scare me to death?"
The fifth daughter pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Ivy quickly protected the fifth daughter and said, "Alexander, why are you angry at the child? Is she wrong?"
"Isn't it wrong to lie?" Alexander stared at Ivy and said, "Is this how you educate your children?"
