　　Aunt Lu, who has taken care of Mr. Zheng for 14 years, gave us the menu for Mr. Zheng the day before:
　　
　　For breakfast, I had 1 cup of milk, 2 cooked quail eggs, soup cooked with 5 red dates, 3 longans, 15-20 wolfberries, and a small piece of bread; I had a bowl of porridge for lunch, and the dish was stir-fried leeks. egg ; I had a bowl of lotus root starch and a bean paste bun for dinner. Aunt Lu said that sometimes the bread would be replaced by cakes or egg yolk pies. Steamed buns, lotus root starch, noodles, wontons and porridge were often eaten by the elderly.
　　
　　“In addition to a normal diet, I also take supplements of nutrients every day. ”Mr. Zheng said: 1 vitamin A pill (25,000 international units), 1-2 tablets each of vitamin B1 (10 mg/tablet), B2 (5 mg/tablet), and B6 (10 mg/tablet), 3-6 vitamin C (100 mg/tablet) tablets, and 1-2 vitamin E (100 mg/tablet) tablets. In winter, I will also take ginseng (Codonopsis pilosula), astragalus, atractylodes, jujube, etc., but I never buy health foods or oral liquids recommended on the market. “All he took were the cheapest vitamins, which cost only three or four cents a day. ”Aunt Lu added.
　　
　　Most people start to take care of themselves after retirement, but for Mr. Zheng, "life never stops, work never stops" is the motto he abides by.
　　
　　Professor Zheng used to work 11 hours a day, but it was not until he was 85 that his working hours were reduced to 7 hours a day. He learned Japanese at the age of 74 and Korean at the age of 90, and went to Pyongyang to attend a gerontology conference. In 1995, at the age of 95, he personally taught students for more than two hours at a time. His thinking was as sharp and clear as that of young people. Before he was 100 years old, Mr. Zheng went to work every day and had to go to the office every day. He did not take a break during the summer vacation. When the weather was hot, he would get a camp bed and sleep in the laboratory. After he turned 100, Mr. Zheng was considered "officially retired" and did not go to the office and laboratory very much. In 2007, Mr. Zheng, who was 108 years old at the time, also wrote a book "Proof of Longevity" to teach the world about his longevity. It was the first time in the world's publishing history that a book was published at this age. Now, although the 110-year-old Mr. Zheng has retired from his job, he has taken on the important task of housekeeping. “Mr. Zheng has to manage the family's phone bill, electricity bill and other financial situations, and his thinking is much clearer than the average elderly person. ”Jia Jianbin, Secretary-General of the Chinese Nutrition Society, expressed his sincere admiration when talking about Mr. Zheng.
　　
　　“Finding a job you like and doing it to the end is a blessing in life. My goal is to live to be at least 120 years old. I let nature take its course, leaving when it was time to go, and going when it was time to go. Those who are not afraid of death will not die easily, and those who are afraid of death will die quickly. ”As for matters of life and death, Mr. Zheng, who has lived a long life, has already seen clearly. In an interview, he boldly declared to the reporter of "Life Times": "If the weather is false, I will write another book. ”
