Chapter 15 I'm Obviously Very Frugal



It was a bottle of SOD secret from Taobao. She had put away all the ones she used to wipe her face. She only had this bottle, which she usually used to wipe her hands, and she just put it on the table.

This brand is not something that only exists in this era. It is given away as a promotion in the space.

Qiu Mei looked at the plastic bottle, which was smooth, white, and surprisingly soft to the touch, so she asked Mu Ruanruan:

"What is this?"

Mu Ruanruan lay back on the bed, picked up the book, and without looking at her, said: "It's nothing, just a hand wipe. If you want it, I'll give it to you."

She still has a lot in her space. Last time she bought some skin care products on sale, she got a lot of bottles as gifts.

Qiu Mei opened the lid and smelled it. It was much more fragrant than what she had just used.

It is fresh and not greasy, the fragrance is complex but not overpowering, and it has a little bit of orange flavor, but it doesn't seem to be.

Her hands were shaking a little. The texture of this bottle was better than anything else in her box. She had never seen anything with such good workmanship, yet Mu Ruanruan just put it there casually.

This brand should be very effective.

Qiu Mei secretly glanced at Mu Ruanruan again. Her lips were red, her teeth were white, her face was rosy, and her skin seemed to be better than when she saw her yesterday. Her hands were slender and delicate, with white joints.

Unlike me, even though I have tried my best to support her, I still...

Thinking about how he worked day and night, she could actually lie there so leisurely, doing nothing, and look so delicate. It must be to seduce Zhao Jinyu.

Zhao Jinyu was so well-off, but the girl wasn't attracted to him. That was because no one in the village knew about his family background, otherwise, there would be many women throwing themselves at him.

Could Mu Ruanruan leave Zhao Jinyu behind?

Qiu Mei thought a lot, but at this moment she was still attracted by the bottle in her hand.

When women see something new, they all want to try it, and the same goes for skin care products.

She wanted to ask Mu Ruanruan if she could give it a try, but her pride prevented her from asking.

Mu Ruanruan saw her intention and said, "Use it as you like. Turn the bottle upside down and squeeze it hard, and it will come out."

"I know. You don't need to teach me." Qiu Mei felt that Mu Ruanruan's words really looked down on her intelligence. A little anger rose in her heart. She couldn't control her strength and squeezed out a lot of words.

Although Mu Ruanruan said that this was not a rare item, Qiu Mei felt that this thing must be not cheap. Mu Ruanruan was pretending not to care, but her heart must be bleeding.

Thinking of this, Qiu Mei was no longer nervous. She looked at the pile of white lotion in her palm and felt that she must have stabbed Mu Ruanruan's heart with a needle, which made her feel extremely distressed but unable to show it.

Qiu Mei put on that proud expression again and smeared the lotion on her hands wantonly. Sure enough, she saw Mu Ruanruan looking at her.

Mu Ruanruan found it funny, "Don't you feel sick after applying so much?"

After saying that, he raised his chin towards Qiu Mei and said, "There are tissues over there."

Mu Ruanruan was not quite sure what was available in this era and what was not. She didn't want to treat herself badly, so she tried to make her daily necessities comfortable and not too expensive.

But in Qiu Mei's eyes, these are not so simple.

Qiu Mei thought Mu Ruanruan was distressed, and rubbed her hands more happily, "It's not greasy, why are you, I usually use it like this, why are you reluctant to let go?"

But skin care products are indeed a bit greasy. If you use too much and cannot be absorbed, your hands will become sticky. What's more, Qiu Mei has so many bottle caps, which naturally makes her even more uncomfortable.

She rubbed it for a long time, and wanted to wipe it on her face but was too embarrassed, so she looked for a tissue in the direction where Mu Ruanruan raised her chin.

"Where are the tissues? Why aren't there any? You're not talking about these books, are you? I'm just looking at the new ones."

Qiu Mei reached out for Mu Ruanruan's books. These were some novels she read before going to bed, both Chinese and foreign. Qiu Mei had never seen many of them before. There was also an original English version with a brown cover that looked a little old.

"I'll take this older one." Qiu Mei's hand was reaching out for the old book.

Mu Ruanruan noticed something was wrong and quickly stood up and knocked Qiu Mei's hand away, "What are you doing? Is it dirty?"

Mu Ruanruan's palms were also stained with some Taobao, so she just tore off a piece of tissue paper to wipe it.

Only then did Qiu Mei realize that she had misunderstood. It turned out that the pink pig was filled with tissue paper, so white and soft. Mu Ruanruan actually used it to wipe her hands directly, wiped it a few times and then threw it away.

The suppressed feeling of humiliation finally burst out. Qiu Mei covered her eyes and ran out.

Mu Ruanruan was confused by her, but she didn't care. She tore off a few more tissues to wipe the book that was almost defiled by Qiu Mei, and lay down again.

After lying down for a long time, Mu Ruanruan suddenly sat up and asked, "Is Qiu Mei irritated by these tissues?"

In this era, there really aren't any good tissues like this. Many people use books and exercise books, while others simply...

And her experiences in her previous life.

"Ugh, I can't think about it anymore..."

Fortunately, she now has a system. Thanks to the system, it has solved many of her problems. Although the environment is still very bad, at least the part she can control has made a world of difference.

There have been constant rumors about Mu Ruanruan in the past few days. First, people said that she was having affairs, and later people said that she was spending money like water.

Mu Ruanruan was very puzzled by what she said. Why did she spend money like water? She was obviously very frugal. She didn't even dislike the bottle of Taobao that Qiu Mei had ruined, and she continued to use it.

But the mouth is on someone else's body, and you can't control what they say.

Fortunately, Mu Ruanruan is not the kind of person who cares so much about other people's opinions. She just does what they say and does what she should do.

She didn't expect that the rumor would be so terrible that a group of people came to her house to investigate openly and secretly.

These people went to the public kitchen and looked here and there. At first, Mu Ruanruan thought that someone came to inspect from above, but it turned out that they were just a group of gossipy villagers.

Walking in front was Aunt Wang, and Aunt Zhao, the women's director. They brought the uncles and aunts to the educated youth dormitory in a grand manner, and many gossipy educated youth also followed them.

I didn't see Qiu Mei, but I saw Sun Lili.

"Mu Zhiqing bought the stove himself." A voice in the crowd said.

"That's right. People with money will buy their own stoves. Public stoves are still inconvenient."

“Yes, yes.”

Mu Ruanruan walked at the end of the crowd, intending to see what they were going to do, but was discovered.

"Mu Zhiqing is here, let her open the door so we can broaden our horizons today."

"Yes, yes, Mu Zhiqing is from the city. I heard that his family are all cadres. There must be many things we have never seen. Mu Zhiqing, please show us."

What could Mu Ruanruan say? People were already here, how could she leave without taking a look?

Fortunately, she had made some preparations, but she was a girl after all, so she said, "But I'll only show it to my aunts and sisters."

Everyone reacted, and Aunt Wang took the lead and said, "What Mu Zhiqing said makes sense. She is still a virgin, and it is not appropriate for a grown man to go in."

A group of women followed Mu Ruanruan upstairs, and the men stayed downstairs. They watched their wives go in eagerly, waiting for them to come down and tell them what good things were hidden in Mu Zhiqing's house.
