Chapter 134: 90s Cook 134 (First Update)

Gong Mingxia hadn’t expected that they would go as a family of six but return as a family of four. It turned out that the two Old Ladies truly fell in love with the rural lifestyle; In fact, Mingxia herself was also tempted.

Their new hall had three rooms, the center being the living room and the bedrooms on either side, one for each person, which was just perfect.

There was no need to worry about who might dislike whom anymore. Over the past month, Gong’s mother had abandoned many of her bad habits. Now living with Mrs. Cao, she wouldn’t completely let herself go back to her old ways, but would still consider others. This was already a significant improvement, given that those habits weren’t particularly good ones.

"It seems our vegetable supply is settled,"

Gong Mingxia mused, "Exactly, but, mom wants us to rent out her house. Should we really do it?"

Cao Yuan nodded, "Let’s rent it, it’s idle anyway. Renting it out could bring in some income, which we could give to them. Let them get used to it for a while, then they can go out traveling, enjoying their retirement, naturally wanting to see the splendid scenery of our homeland."

Hearing this, Gong Mingxia responded, "Alright then, tomorrow I’ll take Xiao Hai to kindergarten. I was planning on sending him in the fall. Well, now he has to go, haha!"

Buying the house spent one hundred thousand, and a trip back to their hometown cost fort thousand; currently, they had just under three hundred thousand on hand.

After all, the restaurant was still bringing in around ten thousand yuan a month, so their savings reached up to 280,000 yuan.

"Let’s buy a car. In the future, the restaurant staff can use a van for buying groceries; I won’t drive it. Let’s get a practical sedan for the family."

Cao Yuan had no objections; his income truly wasn’t much to look at. His wife was able to earn, and naturally, spending a bit of money was justified.

Thus, a week later, Gong Mingxia bought a domestic business car for a total of 180,000 yuan. The family was large, and a small car wouldn’t be suitable. They decided to go all out and buy a business car directly. After this, their savings were reduced to one hundred thousand yuan. Even though there were also fifty thousand yuan invested in the stock market, which had earned twenty to thirty thousand yuan, that wasn’t money to be touched or even considered for use right now.

Since the two Old Ladies moved to the suburbs, the old house had been rented out for eight hundred per month, paid annually along with a deposit, summing up to 11,000 yuan in rental income. Every weekend, they would drive to the suburbs to check on things.

In just two weeks, the two women had cleaned up the house spotlessly. The old curtains were replaced with new ones, and the bedding was all newly purchased, looking very clean. Although the floor tiles were terrazzo, they had a vintage charm. This was, after all, the most popular type of tile in the 1990s.

Vegetables were already planted in the yard, and they had also gotten chicks, ducklings, and quails. They didn’t raise pigs because of the strong odor.

The couple considered maintaining nutritious diets. On Mingxia’s suggestion, they spent a few thousand yuan to buy a ewe so they could milk it daily. They could also take the sheep for walks, a way to get exercise and multiple benefits at once.

Since moving to the suburbs, the joy never left their faces. Each day they enjoyed walks together, and cooking at home became a shared task; they had become like best friends. Although they both had faults, over time, these were soothed away by their daily lives.

On his first day at kindergarten, Xiao Hai cried, but afterward, he happily went every day and returned cheerful when asked why.

"Delicious food, fun playtime." Haha, indeed, with many kids and tasty fun things at kindergarten, how wonderful!
