“It’s so rare to get a treat from your eldest aunt. The last time your eldest aunt gave us a treat, it was when Xia Wen returned from the army!” Xia Fang said with a laugh.

“Oh yes. At that time, Xia Xiu was so happy that she almost set off firecrackers outside the door!” Xu Lan said with a smile.

Xia Xiu slapped her forehead and said, “Oh! I didn’t buy any firecrackers! We should set off firecrackers tomorrow! Let’s do 10 bunches of firecrackers! The number 10 means perfection!”

“Oh please. We still have two babies at home! What if you frighten the children?” Xia Fang said.

“Then… then we’ll talk about it when the children grow up. Otherwise, we can send the children to the backyard house and set off firecrackers in the front yard. We should also invite a troupe to our house to perform a lion dance!” Xia Xiu said.

“People who don’t know better would think that our family is having some kind of opening ceremony,” Xia Wen complained.

“Hahahaha!” Everyone laughed out loud. Qiao Mei was also very tickled.

“Let’s not do anything too eye-catching. It’ll attract unwanted attention. Let’s keep a low profile. We can plan for something when the results are out,” Qiao Mei said.

“That won’t do! Mei Mei, our family must organize a grand event! We have to do it even if others say that our family is extravagant and wasteful! Our Mei Mei is going to be the top scorer of the college entrance examination in the capital! The top scorer! It’s not as if we can’t afford to celebrate in a grand manner!” Xia Fang said excitedly.

Xia Xiu looked at Xiang Jin helplessly and said, “Look at your wife. Please hold her back. Otherwise, she may even invite the country’s leaders to attend our family’s banquet.”

Xiang Jin waved his hand and said, “She’s the real head of the family and I’m her underling. I have to listen to her.”

The family finished the meal happily. In the end, they did not manage to come to an agreement about what to do for the celebration.

At home, Xu Kang and Peanut were still unloading all the gifts from the bus!

There were so many things that they did not know when they could finish. Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang had to come and help them out.

When they were done, they did a check on the items. The entire house was filled with fruit baskets and a lot of good wine and tea. It was enough to last their family for a year!

After Qiao Mei reached home, she asked Xu Kang to distribute the fruit baskets to the neighbors, one for each family. She wanted to thank everyone for taking care of her during this period of time and also to share the joy.

The next day, Xu Lan started to go about organizing the celebration banquet.

Qiao Mei’s relatives and friends all came to visit her at home, especially Qian’e. She bought so many things that she needed four burly men to carry everything in!

“Come, come, come! Watch out! Don’t drop it! These are all very precious items! Be careful! The four of you must bear the weight equally! Don’t drop it!’ Qian’e said nervously.

Qiao Mei turned around and saw that Qian’e had actually custom-made a God of Fortune statue for her. Qiao Mei would never have imagined that Qian’e would buy such a thing.

“What… what is this? What are you thinking?” Qiao Mei asked with a slight frown.

“Don’t you like money a lot? So I’m inviting the God of Fortune to your house. In the future, he’ll bless you with money and treasures every day. You will have countless mountains of gold and silver!” Qian’e said excitedly.

“I… l… Alright… Thank you,” Qiao Mei said resignedly.

Zhao Fei and his wife were really busy with work, so they gave Qian!e 20,000 dollars to pass to Qiao Mei and to inform her that it was their gift for her. Chi Ze and his buddies also gave a gift. They pooled together 10,000 dollars and asked Qian’e to bring the money to Qiao Mei.

They did not really know what Qiao Mei liked. Based on their understanding of her, she did not seem to like anything other than money and properties.

“All you guys are really… really down-to-earth,” Qiao Mei said in surprise.

“There’s also 20,000 dollars from me in here. It’s a total of 50,000 dollars. Keep it well!” Qian’e said.

“Since this is everyone’s gift to me, I won’t stand on ceremony. Come in and sit down. Let me think about where to put this big statue,” Qiao Mei said.

“Then take your time to think about it! I’m going to have my meal!” Qian’e smiled and walked towards Li Gui. As she walked, she shouted, “Godmother! Long time no see!”

Wu Duo and the others in the tuition class did not have much money and did not know what to give Qiao Mei, so they went around telling an exaggerated story of how Qiao Mei tutored them very well. Now, the entire capital knew that the top students in Sixth High were Qiao Mei e s students..
