Chapter 1833: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (37)

King Xia believed Xia Zi’s words and thought that Xia Xing and Xia Cha had done worse than Xia Zi.

The next day, someone asked Xia Wangshi about Xia Zi’s results. Xia Wangshi said she did well and had done even better than the two girls from the second branch.

The neighbor praised Xia Wangshi. “Then your Xia Zi must be the top scholar of Yan City!”

“Of course not!”

Before long, the news that Xia Zi scored better than Xia Xingxia and her sister spread among the neighbors.

Xia Zi didn’t take it seriously.

She knew that she had done badly, but she had tried her best.

Even if she did not get into a good high school, Xia Wangshi would think of a way for her. If she could not enter a public institution, she could just enter a private school.

After Xia Zi finished her exams, she would stay at home to play with her phone and watch television.

Xia Cha and Xia Xing, on the other hand, worked for the family and entertained the guests.

A few days later, Xia Cha’s form teacher called. Xia Cha’s results were not only the best in Wenfeng County but also the best in Yan City.The best high school in Yan City would waive her three years of her tuition fees.

Upon hearing this news, Xia Zhenyuan and Qiu Zhi were very happy. Xia Cha and Xia Xing had both done well, and Xia Lan’s college entrance examination results were also not bad, allowing her to attend Yan City University.

His three daughters would definitely be successful in the future.

At the Xia family’s old residence, Xia Wangshi’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets when she found out about Xia Cha and Xia Xing’s middle school examination results and that Xia Cha was the top scholar in the middle school examination in Yan City.

“When did that wretched girl, Xia Cha’s grades become so good?” It was the middle school examination. It was impossible for her to copy someone else’s grades, right? Besides, she had the best grades in Yan City!

When Xia Zi heard that Xia Cha was the top scholar in the middle school examination, she was jealous and indignant!

Other than being jealous of Xia Cha’s results, there was another reason why Xia Zi disliked her.

The school hunk that Xia Zi had a crush on had spoken to Xia Cha and praised her for her success. He had even said that she was getting prettier.

Xia Zi thought of Xia Cha and a small oval face flashed across her mind. She had beautiful long and narrow phoenix eyes, a small and delicate nose, and pink lips that were like cherry blossoms… She had to admit that Xia Cha had indeed gotten prettier.

After a few more years, when her young and tender face grew, she might even be prettier than Xia Furong.

Not only had Xia Cha become smarter, but she had also become prettier.The more Xia Zi thought about it, the angrier she got. She threw everything on the floor.

Xia Wangshi looked at Xia Zi, who had suddenly lost her temper, and frowned. “Zi Zi, what are you doing?”

“Mom, if you didn’t agree to let Second Brother and his family split up, there’s no way Xia Cha could hav e gotten this good!”

Xia Wangshi looked at Xia Zi, who was angry at her, in disbelief. “How dare you blame me?”

“But it’s true! Xia Cha was never so smart in the past? Besides, she used to be so ugly!” Xia Zi pushed Xia Wangshi away. “Anyway, I want to go to whichever school Xia Cha and Xia Xing attend. If I don’t get into it, make it happen!”

Xia Zi pushed Xia Wangshi out.

…

Two more batches of guests arrived at the villa. While Qiu Zhi and Tian Shi were busy cooking in the kitchen, Madam Tian said to Qiu Zhi, “Have you heard? Your sister-in-law bragged a while ago that her exam results were better than your Cha Cha’s and Xing’er’s. In the end, she might not even be able to get into an ordinary high school.”

Qiu Zhi was in disbelief. “In the past, her results were quite good.”

“Who knows? I heard that she skipped class and went to an internet cafe with a few boys. Maybe that’s how her grades dropped!”

Qiu Zhi did not like gossiping about others. Previously, Xia Wangshi had lied that her Cha Cha’s results were fake. Now that the results of the middle school examination were out, it was the best rebuttal!Now, all the neighbors knew that her Cha Cha was smart and had relied on her own abilities!

Another ten days passed.

That evening, Xia Wangshi asked Xia Zhenxiang to come over and called Xia Zhenyuan back to the old residence, saying that they had something important to discuss with him.

Xia Zhenyuan was no longer the Xia Zhenyuan from a year ago. Now, he had his own opinions. It was very difficult for ordinary people to control him.

Qiu Zhi and the three children were assured that he would go back to confront the Xia family.

Seeing Xia Zhenyuan come over, the whole family stood up to welcome him. If this was in the past, this was a treatment that was absolutely impossible.

Xia Wangshi had prepared a table of good dishes.

“Second Brother, you’re here. Take a seat!”

Looking at the smiling face of Xia Wangshi, Xia Zhenyuan remained indifferent. He nodded and sat down.

“It has been a long time since our family sat together for a meal,” Xia Wangshi sighed.

This time, Xia Wangshi had only invited Xia Zhenyuan, not Qiu Zhi and the three children. It was clear that they did not care about Qiu Zhi or the three children.Although Xia Zhenyuan was dissatisfied, he did not show it.

Old Master Xia took out the aged wine and Xia Zhenxiang poured it for them.

After three rounds of drinks, Xia Wangshi pulled Xia Zi to her side and said to Xia Zhenyuan, “Zhenyuan, I asked you to come over today because I have something to discuss with you.”

“You only have this one sister. This time, she did not perform well in the middle school examination. She might not even be able to go to an ordinary high school, but her usual results are not bad. If she doesn’t go to high school, she won’t be able to go to university in the future…”

Xia Zhenyuan frowned slightly. “Mom, if you have something to say, just say it!”

“Your sister wants to enter No.1 High School. Can you get Xia Cha or Xia Xing to give up one of their spots for her…”

Before Xia Wangshi could finish speaking, Xia Zhenyuan stood up from his chair. “Mom, what are you talking about? They got in based on their own results! Do you think we can just replace them as we wish?”

Xia Wangshi pulled Xia Zhenyuan to sit down. “Since you can’t replace her, let’s go with the second plan. Take out some money and let your sister attend a better private high school.”

Xia Zhenyuan looked at Xia Wangshi, who had spoken these words with a matter-of-fact expression. It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head, and his jaw was tightly clenched. He was clearly angry.

Xia Wangshi acted as if she did not see Xia Zhenyuan’s expression and continued, “In the past year, your family has made a lot of money. Aren’t you planning to build a new house? In my opinion, the new house can be built in the future, but your sister’s education cannot be delayed!”

Xia Zhenyuan stood up from his chair again. This time, he didn’t give Xia Wangshi a chance to get close to him. He took a few steps back. “Mom, my family worked hard to earn this money. We didn’t wait for it to fall from the sky. Besides, I’ve already separated from the family. If Xia Zi can’t afford to go to school, I can pay a little, but you want me to pay for her to go to an elite school. Aren’t you afraid that people will laugh at you?”“In the past, when I wasn’t doing well, you guys made me work as a laborer. Now that my conditions are slightly better, you guys came up with such an idea to make me a sucker again. Mom, I’m no longer the fool I used to be! If something like this happens again in the future, don’t call me back!”

Xia Zhenyuan left angrily.

Everyone in the Xia household was stunned to see Xia Zhenyuan like this.
