Chapter 99, 60-second audio clip
Although some trolls can still be seen distorting the truth in the comments.

But for Jian Ning, it will no longer have any impact.

She didn't care that he was just a clown.

Now that the rumors have been clarified, Jian Ning will continue with the usual practice of releasing a vegetable blind box every week.

Now there are soybean figures.

For these daily tasks, she only needs to give one instruction, and the beans will do it for her without her having to worry about anything.

Jian Ning looked at all those soybeans on the ground.

When I was planting soybeans, my plan was to make tofu myself, so I bought the tools well in advance.

It is better to choose a day than to hit it.

Jian Ning has always been the kind of person who does what she wants, so why not try making some tofu today?

When I was a child, my grandparents grew beans and would make tofu for us.

However, most of the time I still go to the market to buy tofu, because Old Zhang's tofu in the village is always very cheap, two pieces for one yuan.

The tofu sold by Old Zhang in the village is also made by himself from soybeans, and it tastes much better than the packaged tofu in Beicheng.

Moreover, the tofu may vary slightly from place to place.

The tofu from Jian Ning's hometown was something she had never tasted in Beicheng before.

She had seen a lot of things since she was a child, helping her grandparents to make tofu with brine, so making tofu was not difficult for her.

After grinding and boiling the soybeans, Jianning filtered the resulting soy milk and kept a cup for herself.

It tastes completely different from the soy milk sold outside. Because no sugar is added, it has no sweetness at all, only a bland soy flavor.

Before being pressed into tofu, it is called douhua (tofu pudding).

Jian Ning made herself a bowl of spicy tofu pudding.

While eating, scoop the tofu pudding into the mold used to press the tofu.

She made four pieces of white tofu and four pieces of brownish-yellow salted tofu.

Salted tofu has a brownish-yellow exterior and a milky-white interior.

Tofu can be eaten raw, and salted tofu has a naturally mild salty taste, which is delicious.

Grandma used to buy salted tofu, and she would watch from the side. Grandma would cut off a piece and give it to her like feeding a kitten, and she would eat it like a snack.

As people grow up, they actually encounter many more delicious foods.

But the things you've eaten since childhood, which you can't find anywhere else, are like a cherished memory. Every time you can eat them, you feel incredibly happy and fulfilled.

After making the tofu, Jian Ning even took a picture and shared it with her grandmother, saying that she made it herself.

Not long after, Grandma sent a 60-second voice message.

"Ningning, you can even make tofu yourself now! You're so amazing. The weather here has been getting colder lately. Is it cold where you are? Remember to wear more clothes when it's cold so you don't catch a cold. You've never liked to wear extra clothes when winter is coming, and you always get sick from the cold. You even like to stick your arms out when you sleep at night. Now that you're all grown up, and Grandma isn't around to help you, you really need to remember to keep warm..."

The one-minute voice message was followed by repeated reminders to her to take care of her health.

As for why the voice message was so long, it's because Grandma couldn't remember how to use WeChat voice messages; she only knew that she had to hold down the button to speak.

Later, Jian Ning also asked in detail.

Grandma said, "It's free anyway, so it's okay to talk a little more at once. Unlike phone bills, where you get charged for talking too much."

At that moment, after listening to the voice message from her grandmother, she sent her a video call.

On the phone screen, a kind face appeared in the picture.

The old lady slowly leaned closer, wanting to get a better look at her granddaughter on the phone.

"Ningning, you look thinner? Have you been too busy with work lately?"

Jian Ning rarely talks about work with her family, so her grandmother probably doesn't know what's going on with her now. It's not that she's not close to her grandmother, but rather that she's developed a personality from a young age of only sharing good news and keeping bad news to herself, and bearing all the problems on her own.

She avoided mentioning work and said gently, "Grandma, I haven't lost weight. I've been eating a lot more lately. By the way, I've dried a lot of radishes recently, and I'll send them to you tomorrow."

The old lady was all smiles, but what she said was, "Don't send any more next time. Your uncle said that in the north of the city, you have to pay to breathe in the fresh air. The radishes here are cheap, so I'll dry some myself later."

Jian Ning said, "Some more vegetables will be sent over tomorrow."

"No, no, no!" the old lady quickly stopped her, looking anxious. "Your aunt said a while ago that you bought several vegetables that were recently popular online, and they cost five yuan a pound. She said you also had to pay extra for the delivery."

Jian Ning hasn't told her grandmother that she grew them herself.

The old lady looked disgusted: "What kind of gold is this? It costs five yuan a pound! Your aunt only pays three mao a pound for cabbage at the market."

On the other end of the video call, you can hear a woman coughing.

Jian Ning could recognize it as her aunt's voice.

The old lady asked, still puzzled, "What's wrong? Is your throat bothering you?"

Aunt coughed twice and said, "It's nothing. You should finish talking with Ningning and get some rest."

"I know." Grandma turned around, looked at Jian Ning on her phone, and said, "Ningning, it's been cold lately, and a lot of people have caught colds. You must be careful."

Jian Ning nodded and asked softly, "Grandma, do you think this dish tastes better than usual?"

The old lady insisted, "It's delicious, but it's too expensive. You're not allowed to buy it anymore. Why waste money like this? We'll just buy our vegetables at the market."

Jian Ning didn't really want to talk about this.

She asked, "Grandma, how have you been feeling lately? Do you still feel pain after your fall last time?"

Speaking of this, the old lady continued, "I feel that since I fell, I've become even stronger. Your uncle joked that he must have turned on some switch in my body. Recently, I've been able to go out and dance in the square with those old ladies. Not only am I not tired, but I also work up a sweat. I've secretly taken several showers without your uncle knowing, and I haven't caught a cold. I would never have dared to do that before."

Because my grandmother is in poor health, especially during the autumn and winter seasons, she can easily fall ill and have to be hospitalized.

I dared not let my grandma take too many baths. It's no exaggeration to say that she would catch a cold as soon as she took a bath, and a cold would require hospitalization.

My grandmother's health was already much worse than before due to chemotherapy for cancer.

In addition, as I got older, I also developed heart problems and various complications.

Now, when Jian Ning heard her grandmother say that her health had improved, a look of joy and relief appeared on her face.

"That's good."

She gave her grandmother a few more reminders to take care of her health, chatted for a couple more minutes, and then hung up the video call.

Just now, the system popped up again.

She looked up.

The annihilation of all Soul Devouring Venerables within the sect has been completed.

[The Devouring Spirit Venerable was infamous, and countless cultivators sought to eliminate him, all of whom perished. You were entrusted with a critical mission and successfully annihilated all the Devouring Spirit Venerables, earning the sect's high praise. A true leader of the sect, you truly deserve the title.]

[Reward: Spiritual energy absorption increased by 5%]

Upon seeing the reward, Jian Ning immediately sat cross-legged on the futon, circulated her breath, and guided the qi into her body.

Even though the absorption of spiritual energy only increased by 5%, Jian Ning could clearly feel that the absorption of spiritual energy during the process was very different from before.

She was delighted, as it meant her cultivation speed was increasing.

He didn't sleep all night and became engrossed in cultivation.

She didn't stop until almost noon.

She cultivated all night without feeling tired at all.

After getting up, I felt refreshed and invigorated, as if my whole body had been reborn.
