Upon hearing Zhou Jingyun's words, Gou Dan asked in bewilderment, "Brother Yun, isn't this white enough, tender enough, and pretty enough?"
Seeing that Gou Dan genuinely thought so, Zhou Jingyun sighed softly, "Gou Dan, you really haven't seen a woman before!"
Tie Zhu chimed in, "Gou Dan, after the autumn harvest, this female educated youth will be just like Cui Hong from our village."
Hearing the two say that, Gou Dan began to doubt his own judgment: Could it be that he was really ignorant?
He turned his head, wanting to ask the question that had been bothering him.
However, as soon as she turned around, she saw Ruan Miaomiao returning with a bamboo basket, and her mouth instantly opened wide enough to fit an egg.
Seeing this, the two scolded:
"You won't admit you're ignorant. Why are you opening your mouth so wide? Did you see a ghost?"
"Alright, Dog Egg, once you've saved up some money, I'll take you to the county town to see a movie, broaden your horizons, and show you what a real, fair-skinned, fragrant beauty looks like."
As the two were talking, they noticed that Gou Dan's gaze was fixed on what was behind them, so they turned around to see what the ghost was.
But the next second, they exclaimed: Where are the ghosts?
She's clearly a fairy!
The three people stared in disbelief at Ruan Miaomiao, who was walking towards them from a distance.
The woman was fair-skinned and delicate, with large, watery eyes beneath her arched eyebrows. When she saw the three of them from afar, she smiled politely.
That smile made all three of them feel as if their souls had been stolen by the dimples on the woman's face. They stood there dumbfounded, so when Ruan Miaomiao passed by them, she could only turn away.
As the woman gracefully walked away, the three of them could still seem to smell the lingering fragrance in the air.
"This is what a woman should be like—fair-skinned and tender, even more fragrant than freshly cooked, steaming tofu!"
Watching Ruan Miaomiao walk into the educated youth compound, Zhou Jingyun sighed with heartfelt emotion.
Beside him, Gou Dan and Tie Zhu nodded in agreement.
Once the woman's figure was out of sight, Zhou Jingyun recalled her fashionable outfit, glanced at his own urea pants, and felt a pang of embarrassment. He hurriedly ran home...

"Miaomiao, where have you been? I haven't seen you since I woke up."
As soon as we entered the educated youth compound, Zhao Xiuyun came over and asked.
Anyone who didn't know the situation would definitely think that Zhao Xiuyun was concerned about Ruan Miaomiao.
However, Ruan Miaomiao knew in her heart that this woman was starving and waiting for her to bring her food!
He was still waiting to be fed to those two ungrateful good-for-nothings, just like the original owner in the story.
dream!
Ruan Miaomiao shook the bamboo basket in her hand with an innocent look: "I was just trying to get used to life in the countryside as soon as possible, so I borrowed a bamboo basket from Zhou Zhiqing to go find some wild vegetables. I walked around for half a day, but not only did I not find any, I also got exhausted."
Just then, Zhou Weihong and the other former educated youth were also getting ready to go to work. Ruan Miaomiao thanked them and returned the bamboo basket to Zhou Weihong. She went straight into the house and barricaded the door from the inside.
Thinking of what Ruan Miaomiao said before she went in: "I want to take a nap, don't bother me," Zhao Xiuyun almost ground her teeth to powder: You bitch, don't you know that neither Qingming nor I have eaten anything?
However, although the older educated youth had all gone to work, two educated youth who had come with them remained in the educated youth compound. Zhao Xiuyun didn't want to bother them after Ruan Miaomiao had already given her permission.
They had planned to go find Ruan Miaomiao after the two educated youths left, but the two educated youths were very enthusiastic and invited Zhao Xiuyun and Shen Qingming to go to town together to see what the supply and marketing cooperative had.
The two initially wanted to refuse, but thinking about building good relationships with the people at the educated youth settlement and creating a good reputation, they agreed.
In her heart, she was thinking that Zhao Xiuyun still had one yuan on her. She could go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something to fill her stomach first, and by the way, she could see what the supply and marketing cooperative in town had, and then ask Ruan Miaomiao to buy it for her.
They had seen the luggage Ruan Miaomiao brought yesterday. Although it was a lot, it seemed a bit small when divided among the three people.
Ruan Miaomiao had already guessed what the two were thinking. After securing the door, she started packing her luggage inside.
When she moved her luggage in last night, she only opened the toiletries and bedding, leaving the rest unopened, intending to move it out today.
Just as we finished tidying up, the brigade leader's wife came to knock on the door of the educated youth compound.
The other party didn't bother to help me, which must be thanks to that half-pound of brown sugar.
The two went to see the house, and Ruan Miaomiao was quite satisfied. She gave Qin Chunhong two yuan on the spot. Qin Chunhong was also a straightforward person. During the midday break, she asked her three sons to help Ruan Miaomiao move all her things to the stone-walled house at the back of the village.
During her lunch break, Ruan Miaomiao finished moving and spent the afternoon tidying up the house in the stone wall house.
The stone-walled house was small, with only two rooms. In the courtyard, there was a kitchen and an outhouse built with adobe bricks, which was quite convenient.
Outside the yard is the private plot of land, where the vegetables and peppers are grown, and they look very good; they are clearly well-tended.
“Ruan Zhiqing, this private plot belongs to Wei Guoguo, but they went to the county town. I couldn’t bear to see the land lying fallow, so I planted some vegetables myself. Now that you’ve rented Wei Guoguo’s house, this private plot should be yours in principle. You can pick and eat the vegetables in the plot if you want.”
As Ruan Miaomiao was admiring the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, an old woman with her hair neatly coiled up and dressed cleanly and tidy walked over from next door.
The old woman looked to be in her forties. Although her homespun clothes had many patches, they were neat and tidy, and she was clearly a person who paid attention to detail.
Upon seeing the person, Ruan Miaomiao recognized her as Zhao Cuihong, the neighbor next door whom Qin Chunhong had taken her to greet and ask for her help.
People with sweet words are always lucky. Ruan Miaomiao immediately came out of the yard and replied sweetly, "Aunt Cuihong, kind-hearted people are blessed. Aunt, you are so kind-hearted, you must be very lucky."
I won't eat your vegetables for free; I'll definitely trade them with you something in return.
Although Zhao Cuihong had five daughters, she immediately took a liking to Ruan Miaomiao, a sweet-talking girl.
His wrinkles stretched into a smile as he teased, "How much can a little girl like you eat?"
That's what she said, but Zhao Cuihong also had her own judgment. If Ruan Zhiqing ate too much, she could just take all the vegetables from the field back.
In the Zhou family courtyard, Zhou Jingyun finally found a pair of blue pants without patches. He had just changed into them when he heard his mother talking to someone outside.
For some reason, the woman's voice when she spoke to his mother was as clear and melodious as a nightingale in spring, making his heart flutter. He couldn't help but think of the delicate educated youth he had seen that morning...
