Chapter 74: 【074】90s cook 74

At the end of June, kindergarten was out for summer vacation. She didn’t enroll her daughter in more classes, but instead increased her practice in piano and dance. Additionally, at her daughter’s request, she also signed her up for swimming classes, thoroughly enriching her summer vacation life.

After Cao Yang finished his middle school exams and was admitted to his preferred top high school, he came here for the summer vacation and took on the duty of picking up and dropping off his little sister every day. He also accompanied her to the swimming pool to learn swimming. Their relationship was now as good as that of genuine siblings.

With Cao Yang’s help in taking care of the children, Gong Mingxia was able to free up more time to implement her plans.

Because at the end of June, those three record companies had each given her a dividend of 120,000, 160,000, and 100,000 yuan respectively, totaling a staggering 380,000 yuan.

Indeed, even she was surprised, the 380,000 yuan was enough for her to buy three apartments in her community.

However, the excitement was only momentary because July had come, bringing more rainfall. Although Z province wasn’t the worst hit in this flood disaster, it was not easy. After all, thirty provinces and cities nationwide would be affected this year. She planned to use the 380,000 yuan in dividends to buy food, distribute it to the common people, and have them make something delicious to give to those loveliest people fighting on the front lines.

Gong Mingxia closed up shop by the end of July, posting a sign that said, "Closed for one month, returning in September." She entrusted Xiao Xiao to her godmother and Cao Yang, planning to head to the disaster area alone.

Of course, she had to explain clearly to her godmother where she was going. "I can cook, you see, many of those soldiers are just young kids. On such hot days, fighting against the flood, it’s truly heartbreaking. I might not be able to help much there, but I can cook delicious meals for them. I’ll go for just one month. In fact, I wanted to go last month, but I had to wait for a letter from Xiuying, so I couldn’t go."

Aunt Wang was shocked to see this altruistic side of Gong Mingxia. Honestly, she was stunned.

It’s known that she would give up her job, potentially losing around four to five thousand yuan a month. But she didn’t even frown before giving it up.

At that moment, Aunt Wang patted Gong Mingxia’s shoulder. "Good child, you’re really incredible. Wait here, I’ll go get some money for you. Use this money on my behalf to buy some meat for those soldiers, to properly nourish them. It’s also fulfilling a part of goodwill from me."

"Godmother, there’s no need, I have money. I’ll donate."

"I donate mine, and my donation counts as my goodwill. Don’t argue, just wait here. I’ll go with Cao Yang, we’ll be back quickly."

Unable to resist the old lady’s goodwill, Gong Mingxia waited at home until she brought back one thousand yuan. Then she packed her backpack, put on casual clothes and sneakers, bid them farewell, and boarded a bus to a rural market on the outskirts of the city.

At the entrance of the rural market, she found a driver specializing in transporting fresh produce, whom the market owner had introduced to her. They had already contacted by phone a few days ago, and though it was their first meeting today, after a few words, Gong Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief, possibly because the driver was a veteran, which inexplicably made her feel safe.

Thus, Gong Mingxia laid out her plans. The veteran listened, blinked in surprise, and then fell silent for about a minute before slowly raising his head and sincerely giving her a thumbs up.

"Boss, you’re really something. Hauling this load of fresh produce costs at least ten thousand to twenty thousand yuan. You, are really willing?"
