When Zhao Xiuyun went to the commune during the day, she had the idea of ​​winning over other educated youth to exclude Ruan Miaomiao, so that Ruan Miaomiao could only associate with her and Shen Qingming.

Therefore, along the way, they were openly and secretly plotting against Ruan Miaomiao.

However, my emotions weren't as out of control back then.

However, this had already successfully made Li Yuying have a bad impression of Ruan Miaomiao.

Now that these words have been spoken, Li Yuying immediately chimed in with a curse: "Xiuyun, how is this your problem?"

This is clearly Ruan Miaomiao's problem!

You and Shen, the educated youth, grew up together and had a pure friendship that was almost like that of siblings.

Only she, Ruan Miaomiao, has a filthy mind; she sees filth in everyone and misunderstands that there's something between you!

If you ask me, a woman with such a vicious mind doesn't deserve a good man like Shen Zhiqing..."

Zhao Xiuyun was overjoyed to hear these words.

However, she still feigned heartache and resentment, clutching Li Yuying's sleeve and pleading tearfully:

"Yuying, don't say it, don't say it. If word gets out, it will damage Miaomiao's reputation."

It's all my fault. After I got back today, I promised Miaomiao—oh, no, I mean Ruan Zhiqing—that I would never have any private dealings with Shen Zhiqing again..."

At this point, Zhao Xiuyun seemed deeply saddened, cupping her face in her hands and sobbing uncontrollably.

This made Li Yuying's impression of Ruan Miaomiao even worse. She turned around and said angrily, "This educated youth Ruan is really going too far."

Even if she is Shen Zhiqing's boyfriend, she can't control who Shen Zhiqing makes friends, right?

Does this mean that since Shen Zhiqing is dating her, he can't even talk to girls anymore?

"Xiuyun, don't be afraid, you're my sister. I'll go and get justice for you!"

As he spoke, he tried to rush out, but before he could get halfway, Zhao Xiuyun grabbed him tightly from behind:

"No, Yuying, please don't, you mustn't do this. Ruan Zhiqing just cares too much about Shen Zhiqing..."

Turning her head, Li Yuying looked at Zhao Xiuyun, who was hugging her waist and crying uncontrollably, and sighed heavily:

"Hey, Xiuyun, you're just too kind. That makes you easy to be bullied..."

Li Yuying's heart was almost melted by Zhao Xiuyun's tears, and she secretly made up her mind: she must protect this kind woman in the future!

The two women were crying quite loudly, and everyone else in the educated youth compound heard them. They exchanged glances: So that's how it is. No wonder that educated youth Ruan felt guilty and moved out herself.

Everyone looked at Shen, the educated youth, who was learning to tend the fire in the kitchen with sympathy: only someone with a good temper like Shen could put up with such a partner.

Shen, the educated youth, naturally sensed the attitude of the crowd. He squatted on the ground, silently accepting their sympathy, while muttering to himself: Ruan Miaomiao, when no one in the entire educated youth compound wants to talk to you, won't you obediently come and beg me to take care of you?

Shen Qingming never imagined that Ruan Miaomiao would be able to find other people to associate with while being ostracized in the educated youth compound.

After all, he looked down on these peasants in the village.

Not to mention Ruan Miaomiao, who was raised in luxury and pamperedness.

The thought of Ruan Miaomiao being forced to bow down to him filled him with a secret sense of satisfaction.

However, this feeling of pleasure vanished the moment I returned to my room to sleep.

The dilapidated mud-brick house was a mess. When he pushed open the door, a strong, pungent smell of feet and sweat mixed together hit him, making him blink a few times.

The top was covered with spider webs.

Under the spider web, three 1.2-meter-long wooden beds were placed in the four corners.

All three beds were old and in poor condition.

Among them, his was the most old; two of the four legs of the bed were rotten, and it was supported by mud bricks. It creaked and groaned when you lay on it, as if it would fall apart at any moment...

At this moment, Shen Qingming felt a little regretful: Why did I get so carried away back then? Why did I think of getting away from the Ruan family's sphere of influence and shout out the slogan of going to the most difficult and remote places?

******

Unlike Shen Qingming's regret, Ruan Miaomiao ate her dinner with great relish.

Dinner was also delivered by a kind neighbor next door: red bean and rice soup with old pumpkin, stir-fried green peppers and eggplant, some scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and some corn rice.

In return, she gave Zhou Jingyun ten glass candies to take home and thank his kind neighbor.

The red bean and pumpkin soup, simmered over a wood fire, was soft, sweet, and especially refreshing after cooling down. The red bean and pumpkin soup with braised green peppers and eggplant was another highlight: the soft eggplant combined perfectly with the spiciness of the green peppers, each bite a dance on the tongue, stimulating Ruan Miaomiao's taste buds and whetting her appetite! She quickly finished her meal of the cold braised green pepper and eggplant salad.

She ate in an aluminum lunchbox that she brought herself, and after finishing her meal, she simply rinsed it with water to clean it.

After a quick wash, Ruan Miaomiao returned to her room.

The moon hung high outside, its light filtering through the paper window into the room, hazy and indistinct. Fortunately, she had prepared water-and-fire lanterns beforehand. After lighting the lanterns, she began to organize the things she had moved from the Zhao and Shen families:

Fifteen catties of rice, two earthenware jars of lard, a small bowl of pork cracklings, half a catty of pork, five catties of flour, twenty catties of japonica rice, three ounces of fried ribbonfish, two pieces of sugar cake, one and a half catties of mung beans, six ounces of red beans, a small jar of salt, half a bottle of soy sauce, a small bowl of noodles, two and a half catties of brown sugar...

There were quite a few items, and most importantly, they even managed to collect almost all of the two families' savings:

A total of 1,205.76 yuan was collected from the wardrobe, under the bed, and under the drawers in the Shen family's house.

It seems that the items the original owner gave to the Shen family that were never found were probably sold for money by the Shen family.

The Zhao family fared much worse; they searched through all the belongings of the three branches of the family and the elderly couple, and only found 369.59 yuan.

Even though she wasn't short of money, Ruan Miaomiao was still delighted to receive over a thousand yuan at once.

Feeling quite pleased with himself, he looked at the pile of clothes he had collected from the Zhao and Shen families on the ground and decided to do some good deeds.

Ruan Miaomiao would never wear these clothes.

Instead of taking up space, it's better to do something good.

So, the philanthropist Ruan Miaomiao took out scissors from her spatial storage, and along the seams, disassembled all the clothes, cut them into strips, scattered them, and then mixed them back together.

They even cut open the sweaters.

After all, the wisdom of the working people is boundless; even a sweater torn into pieces can be unraveled, right?

After working for nearly two hours, Ruan Miaomiao finally finished carefully.

After she finished, she put all the scraps of cloth into her spatial storage.

She changed into several sets of clothes that she had specially kept from the Zhao and Shen families, wrapped her head in a pillowcase, wrapped a small piece of cloth in a quarter of a bed sheet, observed her surroundings, and after confirming that no one was around, she climbed over the wall of the courtyard where there were no neighbors, carrying a bundle made of a bed sheet, and began to do good deeds in Jianshan Brigade!
