Chapter 201: The Head of Year Three

Translator: Lonelytree

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Xiao Lingye was going to take the university entrance exam the next day. His entire family was constantly telling him to calm down and not to give himself too much pressure.

Even his grandparents, uncles, and aunties, who were far away, called to cheer him on!

They also told him not to give himself too much pressure. If he got in, great. If he couldn’t, he could repeat the exam next year. However, if he got a good result, they would come to celebrate by holding a banquet for him.

The whole family accompanied Xiao Lingye to the county town on the day of his exam.

It was an important stage in his life. They wanted to be by Xiao Lingye’s side.

Xiao Lingye and his family went the afternoon before because they didn’t want Xiao Lingye to hurry on the day of the exam. His fourth uncle and aunt would come over the next day. Xiao Mingyang still needed to transport the vegetables the next day.

The university entrance exam was two days long. During these two days, no one in the Xiao Family would be home. Xiao Mingyang only came in the afternoon to load the truck and left in the morning. The rest of the family stayed in Xiao Lingyu’s rental to cheer for Xiao Lingye.

However, they needed someone to watch over the farm. XIao Zhengyang asked the village chief for help to water the vegetable and strawberry farms.

Xiao Taiyang said straightforwardly, “Don’t worry, I’ll keep an eye on the farm. You should stay with Ye ‘Er. After all, he is most likely our next top scorer!”

Xiao Zhengyang said gratefully, “Thank you, village chief.”

The village chief smiled and said, “Zhengyang, you’re so polite to me. This is just a small matter.”

…

Xiao Lingyu brought 200 tomatoes, 200 cucumbers, 200 carrots, and 200 carrots and went straight to Xiao Lingye’s school.

She arrived at the field, and her parents helped her bring down the boxes of vegetables. When the other students saw this, they asked curiously, “Xiao Lingye, what is your family doing? Are they setting up shop on school grounds?”

Xiao Lingye laughed, “Have you heard of Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables in town?”

“Of course we have! The shop is the talk of every student across the three high schools in our county! How can we not know about it?” Someone asked.

“To tell you the truth, my sister owns that shop.” Xiao Lingye stopped hiding the truth. He continued, “My sister has brought her produce so I can share them with everyone.”

“Damn, Xiao Lingye, are you for real?” Someone immediately asked excitedly. They knew the shop’s owner came from Taoyuan Village, but they had no idea the owner was the big sister of their school’s top student!

“It’s true!” Xiao Lingye said proudly, “This is my dad, this is my mom, and this is my sister!”

“Wow, Xiao Lingye, you come from a farming family?” Many students praised, “Your sister and mom are so beautiful. Your dad is dashing too! You look so average standing with your family.”

When they saw Xiao Lingye’s family, they understood why he was named as one of the best-looking male students at No. 1 High School. It was because of genetics!

Then, the students politely greeted the others. “Auntie, uncle, big sister, hello!”

“Hello, everyone.”

“Screw you. Who’s so ugly? I’m also very handsome, okay? Although I’m not as handsome as my dad, I’m at least more handsome than you!

“Here, take this to try! You can pick whichever vegetable you like to eat. But one person can only pick two each.”

“That’s wonderful!” The students exclaimed, “How much are you selling them for?”

Xiao Lingye waved his hand and said, “It’s free! But only those who are sitting for the university entrance exam can take them. The other students will have to wait for next time. With regards to how to authenticate everyone’s identity, it’s easy. Just show us your student id!”

Xiao Lingye was a famous person in the school. Everyone in the school knew him, but he did not know anyone else.

“Xiao Lingye, is it really free? You won’t lie to us, right? You won’t charge us afterward?”

“Of course, it’s real!” Xiao Lingye said, “If you really want to pay me, then fine, 100 RMB!”

“Screw you!” The few students smiled and said, “Lingye, we thank you in advance.” They turned around and said loudly, “Third-year students, if you want to receive the free tomatoes and cucumbers from Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables, bring your student Id card and line up!”

Most of the first and second-year students were on vacation, but it was always better to be safe. Many students who didn’t carry their student id immediately rushed home.

“Come on now, line up in four lines! Everyone can only pick two items!” Xiao Lingye added seriously. “If you cut the line, I will cut you off!”

“Okay, line up now!” The students arranged themselves. The students heard the commotion. Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables was giving out free vegetables at their school!

Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables was well-known in the county town. The shop’s crops were extremely delicious, and they could help the students stay energized throughout the day. Many of their parents had been trying to buy vegetables from that shop. However, the shop’s business was too good. No matter how early they went, there would always be a large crowd already waiting at the door.

But now, Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables actually came to their school to give out free vegetables.

All the third-year students crawled out of different corners of the school. After all, it would be a waste not to take this opportunity. They had long heard about the taste of this shop’s vegetables.

The students lined up. They held their student Id and claimed their free vegetables. Xiao Lingye didn’t need student Id from those he was familiar with. He knew they were his classmates.

Some chose tomatoes, some chose cucumbers, and of course, some chose carrots.

The only one that no one chose was the white radish. Most people knew white radish as an ingredient in soup. They didn’t know it could be eaten raw.

“Wow, it’s so delicious!” Some immediately took a bite of their tomatoes and cucumbers. Their mouths immediately filled with a mellow fragrance. It was a luxurious enjoyment.

“It’s really delicious. I’ve never eaten such delicious tomatoes!”

“No wonder Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables is so famous. I heard that these things are sold at a very high price.”

Those who hadn’t taken their turn asked curiously, “Are they really that delicious?”

“Of course. This is simply the best taste in the world.”

…

The news of the top student, Xiao Lingye, giving out free food from Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables attracted not only the attention of students but also teachers.

The teachers had heard of Taoyuan Village Fresh Fruits and Vegetables too, but none of them realized the shop was run by Xiao Lingye’s family.

Since they were giving away the vegetables for free, they wanted to try them. However, Xiao Lingye had stated clearly that the free vegetables were only for the third-year students. Therefore, these teachers could only watch from the side and swallow their saliva.

When the students made repeated exclamations about how delicious the vegetables were, the teacher’s stomach grumbled.

“What are you people doing?” Suddenly, a sharp voice was heard. “The university entrance exam is tomorrow. Why are you all at the field instead of making revisions or resting at home?”

The originally noisy scene immediately quieted down.

The students parted for the new arrival. It was a middle-aged man wearing black glasses. He was of medium build and had a stern look on his face.

He was the year three director, Qiu Zhonghua.

“Director Qiu!” The students immediately greeted him with trepidation. They were afraid of this stern teacher.

Qiu Zhonghua walked over. When he saw the few boxes of vegetables in front of him, his face immediately darkened. “Who can tell me what’s going on?”

As a director, he was often too strict with his students and staff. So he wasn’t that popular with people. No one answered him.

Xiao Lingye said, “Director Qiu, I’m giving these things to my classmates to have a taste and replenish their strength so that we can prepare for tomorrow’s exam!”

Qiu Zhonghua’s sharp eyes swept across the vegetable boxes before he looked at Xiao Lingye and said very sternly, “Xiao Lingye, don’t think that you can be proud and complacent just because your results are good. To think you’d come to school to sell vegetables on the day before the exam, you sure are ballsy! Plus, these vegetables are raw, right? Have you washed them? What if the other students have diarrhea after eating these things? Will you take responsibility?”

Before Xiao Lingye could answer, Qiu Zhonghua looked at Father Xiao, Mother Xiao, and Xiao Lingyu. When he looked at Xiao Lingyu, his eyes narrowed, and his expression was a little puzzled. “Wait, are you…”

The girl looked very familiar to him. Then, he gasped. “I remember now. You are Xiao Lingyu!”

The students were shocked to know the director actually knew Xiao Lingyu.

“You are Xiao Lingyu, the top scorer of the class of 1999, right?” Qiu Zhonghua asked.

‘The top student, Xiao Lingye, also has a top student elder sister? How can a family’s gene be so good?

‘With Xiao Lingye’s results, if he performed normally, he will be the county’s next top scorer. To have two top scorers in one family, that is so enviable!’

Xiao Lingyu bowed slightly to Qiu Zhonghua and greeted him, “Teacher Qiu, yes, it’s me, Xiao Lingyu!”
