When I was in Northern China they taught me to say a word or phrase pronounced "too-foo-nee" to say "God bless you", however I could not find this word in the pinyin dictionary, but every church I went to seemed to understand when I said it :)

Shang Di Bao YouNi. (pronounced (sangdy by YOO nee))

Shang Di means "God most high" which is the original god of the ancient Chinese who arrived in modern-day China after wandering there from the Tower of Babel. Bao You means "bless" and ni means "you" so Shang Di Bao You Ni means God Bless You. I got the phrase from a close friend who was born in China and the history behind it from a pastor friend of mine who studied Chinese language history and origin. Other phrases are used but usually do not refer to the same God we traditionally mean when speaking English. Hope this helps. God Bless You! Shang Di Bao YouNi!
