  “Ah Zhi, pinch me. Are we dreaming?”


  A wave of guests had come and stayed here for two days. They had only cooked a few meals and entertained them. How could they have earned so much money?

  Qiu Zhi smiled and pinched Xia Zhenyuan’s arm.

  Feeling the pain, Xia Zhenyuan finally dared to believe that it was not a dream.

  Xia Zhenyuan was so excited that his eyes instantly turned red. This was something he would never have dreamed of—earning so much money at home!

  Xia Cha looked at the happy Xia Zhenyuan who was wiping his tears. She stepped forward and hugged his arm. “Dad, our family’s lives will get better and better in the future!”


  After Xia Zhenli returned, he told her wife Fang Liu that the second branch had killed chickens and ducks to entertain outsiders.

  Fang Liu was a gossip-monger. This matter quickly spread to the ears of Xia Wangshi.

  Xia Wangshi had never expected the second branch to be able to kill chickens and ducks to entertain outsiders. She stood at the entrance of the house and cursed in the direction of the Southern Mountains for several days.

  However, her actions did not affect the people from the second branch at all.

  Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi were busy every day. Initially, Xia Cha was afraid that her parents would be tired, so she only received guests on weekends.

  But later, Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi were able to handle the situation on their own. Xia Cha handed her phone to them and taught them to reply to private messages to their guests. She even taught them how to send goods out.

  In order to make it easier for them to send out packages, Xia Cha spent three months negotiating with a delivery company in Wenfeng County.

  Many fans who had watched her video wanted to buy mountain goods from Wenfeng County, as well as pickles made by Qiu Zhi. They only needed to pack them up for the couriers to deliver them.

  Xia Zhenyuan also learned how to drive. For his convenience, Xia Cha had bought a van for him.

  A year later, the family farm finally opened.

  Not only were there foreigners who came specially from abroad, but even local companies and wealthy people in Wenfeng County chose to entertain their clients or friends at South Hill Manor.

  As more and more guests arrived, Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi discussed with Xia Cha and decided to build a new house.

  Upon hearing that the second branch was going to build a new house, the Xia family was dumbfounded.

  The second branch was in charge of the villa in the Southern Mountains and there was an endless stream of guests every day. Everyone in the Xia family’s old mansion knew about it.

  In the past, it had been a desolate place. All of a sudden, it became a famous farmhouse in Wenfeng County. Countless people came to visit it, which made the Xia family jealous.

  Who would have thought that the gullible Xia Zhenyuan would still be able to hold his own? He was no longer a country bumpkin who did not even know how to speak properly!

  Now that he had become the owner of the villa, he wore decent clothes, and had even learned how to drive and helmed a courier company.

  Qiu Zhi, whom they used to order around to serve the whole family, was now different from before. She had become the lady boss, and learned how to take care of herself, and even learned how to dress up. She looked just like Fang Liu from the third branch.

  When Xia Wangshi saw that Xia Zhenyuan was opening a farm in the Southern Mountains to earn money, she asked Xia Zhenxiang to learn from him. She wanted him to steal Xia Zhenyuan’s business. After all, the Xia family’s orchard had many varieties of good fruits. If they were to open a farm, there should be more people coming to them instead.

  After Xia Wangshi gave Xia Zhenxiang some money, he really started a farm and wanted to snatch business from Xia Zhenyuan.

  She even secretly smeared Xia Zhenyuan’s reputation, wanting to make their family’s farm crumble.

  But no matter what methods he used, the customers to the Southern Mountains were endless.

  On the other hand, he received few customers no matter how many promotions he tried to offer.

  In the blink of an eye, it was June.

  Xia Cha and Xia Xing took the middle school examination.

  Xia Zi was also participating in the middle school examination.

  The three of them went to the same high school. Xia Zi used to have better grades than Xia Cha and Xia Xing, so she often showed off in front of them.

  However, ever since Xia Cha’s car accident and school reopened, Xia Cha seemed to have suddenly improved by leaps and bounds.

  Her results got better each time. During the mid-term, she was the top student in the cohort.

  Naturally, Xia Cha helped Xia Xing as well as her results improved.

  Xia Xing was also ranked among the top ten.

  Xia Zi had reported Xia Cha to the headmaster of the school, saying that she cheated in the exam. In the end, when the results came out, she was the one with the highest results. All the students around her did not even score half as well as her.

  Xia Zi couldn’t accept that Xia Cha’s grades were better than hers. When she found out that the second branch had moved out and started a mountain villa, and that their business was getting better and better, she became even more jealous and unhappy.

  She swore that she would do better than Xia Cha and Xia Xing in the middle school examination.

  After the middle school examination, before the results were out, Xia Wangshi bragged about Xia Zi every day, saying how good she was.

  While raising Xia Zi, she also tried to belittle Xia Xing and Xia Cha.

  She even accused Xia Cha of getting first place in the level only because she had cheated.

  This middle school examination was the time to show her true abilities. Qiu Zhi’s daughter was definitely not comparable to her daughter!

  Qiu Zhi was a kind person. After the villa became busier and busier, she invited Madam Tian and Madam Zhang, who were on good terms with her, to help out.

  As the three of them chatted, Madam Tian and Madam Zhang told Qiu Zhi about the rumors circulating around the county.

  When Qiu Zhi found out, her eyes turned red with anger.

  Her Cha Cha had achieved good results with her own ability, but she had been accused of cheating. Xia Zi was her precious daughter, but was Cha Cha not her granddaughter?

  Qiu Zhi wanted to go to Xia Wangshi’s place to make it right. When Xia Cha found out, she pulled her back and said, “Mom, the middle school examination results will be out in a few days. It’s not up to her to decide who is better or worse.”


  Qiu Zhi held Xia Cha’s hand and asked, “Cha Cha, are you confident about the results of the middle school examination?”


  “Mom, don’t worry!”


  On the day of the results were released, Xia Zhenyuan, who was busy in the orchard, returned home early.

  The family sat in the main room. Xia Cha took out her phone and sent a message to check her middle school examination results.

  Xia Xing checked her results first.

  She had gotten five As and one B.

  It was a pretty good result.

  Then, they checked Xia Cha’s.

  Six As.

  Xia Cha had just finished checking when her phone rang.

  It was a call from the school.

  The form teacher informed Xia Cha that she had the highest score in Wenfeng County. It was very likely that she was still the top scholar in the middle school examination in the whole Yan City. However, there were still a few places where results had not been released yet. The specifics could only be revealed the day after tomorrow.

  When Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi heard that Xia Cha had the best grades in Wenfeng County, they were already overjoyed. When they heard that she might be the top scholar in the middle school examination in Yan City, their jaws almost dropped.

  Their Cha Cha had become so outstanding!

  Xia Lan and Xia Xing were also happy for Xia Cha.

  …


  Of course, when some rejoiced, others were sad.

  Xia Cha and Xia Xing’s grades qualified them for the best high school in Yan City.

  At the Xia family’s mansion.

  Under Lady Wang’s urging, Xia Zi also checked her results.

  It was not as good as she thought. She had gotten three Cs and three Ds.

  Xia Zi was furious when she saw the results.

  “Mom, my head hurt on the day of the exam and I lost my cool. Otherwise, I would have done very well.” Xia Zi’s eyes were red as she threw herself into the arms of Xia Wangshi. “And this exam was very difficult. If I didn’t do well, Xia Cha and Xia Xing would definitely not have done well either!”
