Chapter 4: Blatant Showing Off



The Zhao family's land was small, and three generations of the family lived in this courtyard. The courtyard was in a relatively remote location, far from the public toilet, so they built a latrine at the back of the courtyard. It was called a latrine, but it was just a latrine with two wooden planks. The excrement they collected could be taken out and sold.

After all, in those days, even excrement was considered a valuable commodity, and could be sold to the commune's excrement station. When urine and excrement tickets arrived at the outhouse, a stench could be smelled from afar, and flies buzzed around them.

Ruan Miaomiao turned her head and, after confirming that the two people in the courtyard could not see her, she nimbly went directly to the back door of Zhao's parents' room. Without a key, she simply put the door into her spatial storage and quickly put the bed, cabinets, and other items in the room into her space, leaving it completely empty.

After clearing out Zhao Xiuyun's parents' room, Ruan Miaomiao didn't leave out the rooms of the elderly couple and the other two houses of the Zhao family. She quickly emptied the remaining three rooms before calmly returning to the courtyard.

At this moment, the male and female protagonists had just finished comforting each other, and their expressions returned to normal.

Upon seeing Ruan Miaomiao, Zhao Xiuyun greeted her gently, "Miaomiao, please sit down. It's hot, I'll get you a glass of cool water. I fetched this water from the well this morning with a thermos; it's refreshing and thirst-quenching..."

Faced with the female lead's enthusiastic invitation, Ruan Miaomiao refused without hesitation, saying, "No need, I'll go home and enjoy the fan and popsicles!"

"..."

Showing off!

Blatant showing off!

With just one simple sentence, the male and female protagonists broke down: "I know your family is well-off, you have a fan and popsicles!"

Seeing that the male and female leads were about to break down, Ruan Miaomiao threw out a sentence that made them even more unable to hold back:

"Oh, I came today to remind you all, have you all gotten your train tickets for the trip to the countryside the day after tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Shen Qingming asked in confusion, "Miaomiao, what do you mean by that? The train from Haicheng to Qiancheng takes two days and two nights. Didn't you say you were going to get three sleeper tickets?"

Zhao Xiuyun chimed in, "That's right, Miaomiao, even if you're upset that Qingming and I are close, you shouldn't use something like this to get angry. Can you really bear to watch Qingming sit in his seat for two days and two nights?"

The two men had bright eyes, seemingly certain that Ruan Miaomiao wouldn't be willing to part with him.

However, Ruan Miaomiao did not answer directly. Instead, she said in a low voice, "If you find taking the train tiring, you'll be exhausted if you go to the countryside to earn work points."

They even want to go to the most remote and difficult places to support the construction of the motherland, aren't they ashamed!

With a mocking glare at the two, Ruan Miaomiao, who had already taken most of the Zhao family's wealth, was too lazy to talk to them and turned to leave.

"She...she's already gone?"

What does she mean by that?

...

Watching Ruan Miaomiao's decisive departure, Zhao Xiuyun and Shen Qingming exchanged bewildered glances.

The Zhao family had a large population, and Zhao Xiuyun was not valued, so she was naturally the best choice to go to the countryside.

With a secret thought in mind, knowing that Zhao Xiuyun was not valued at home after being sent to the countryside, and not wanting to be accused of being a freeloader and relying on the Ruan family, Shen Qingming took the initiative to apply to go to the countryside.

He even incited the original owner to go to the countryside with him.

After all, he knew in his heart that as long as the original owner of this body, the daughter of his teacher, was there, he could live a comfortable life even if he went to the countryside.

Perhaps it will be even more comfortable than life at home.

Sure enough, after he mentioned a few times that he was worried that sitting in a hard seat on the train for more than two days would hurt his back, Ruan Miaomiao took the initiative to say that she didn't want the train ticket provided by the educated youth office and could buy a sleeper ticket instead.

Moreover, in a different place, no one knows his background, and he might even be able to pretend to be a rich and powerful young master.

With the original owner of the body backing him up, Shen Qingming directly declared that he would go to the most remote and difficult places to support the construction of the motherland. Before even going to the countryside, he had already won a lot of praise.

But why would Ruan Miaomiao say such a thing now?

"Brother Qingming, should we prepare more supplies for our trip to the countryside?"

For some reason, seeing Ruan Miaomiao's attitude just now, Zhao Xiuyun felt a little uneasy, and she tentatively reminded her.

However, having been pampered by the original owner of this body for so long, Shen Qingming had long forgotten his original self and replied dismissively, "No need, I don't believe that Ruan Miaomiao can be so heartless as to watch me suffer!"

If Ruan Miaomiao knew what Shen Qingming was thinking, she would definitely reply with a smile: Not only can I bear to watch you suffer, but I can also make you suffer myself!

On the way back to the Ruan family home, Ruan Miaomiao thought for a moment:

Although the original owner came from a wealthy family, staying in Haicheng would have allowed her to live a life of leisure and idleness, like a parasite.

However, she is not the original owner of this body. No matter how well she imitates her, a family like the Ruan family, which dotes on their daughter, will definitely notice something is wrong sooner or later.

With the keen senses of soldiers, they might mistake me for a spy, and it would be a huge loss if they arrested me!

To cover up his true intentions, this trip to the countryside was necessary.

Thinking about how she finally managed to transmigrate from a devastated post-apocalyptic world to a peaceful era, and even more fortunately, into the daughter of her teacher's family, she was tricked by the male lead, that scumbag, into going to some remote and harsh place!

What? That place, with its green hills and clear waters, is a feng shui treasure land for burying him?

Fuming with anger, Ruan Miaomiao took the original owner's money and tickets and went into the department store. She bought a whole bunch of things, including thermos flasks, enamel mugs, enamel basins, menstrual pads, toilet paper, malted milk powder, soap... She didn't leave the department store until she had spent all the money and tickets she had.

The southwest is damp and cold. In winter, it can be colder inside than outside. Ruan Miaomiao, who values ​​her life, bought herself a lot of warm clothes.
