peasant girl
Country farmer's daughter
A peasant girl is a young female from the rural agricultural class—farmers, laborers, and villagers who work the land.
The phrase appears most often in fairy tales, folk stories, and historical fiction, where the peasant girl typically represents humble origins before transformation or discovery: The prince fell in love with a peasant girl.
In contemporary use, it may describe a rustic aesthetic: She wore a peasant girl costume to the festival.
