"She is not as green as she is cabbage-looking" = Cô ấy không xanh lè/tái mép như cái mặt ngớ ngẩn/mặt bắp cải -> Chỉ ai thông minh hơn và không ngây thơ như vẻ bên ngoài.

Ví dụ
Based on the movie of the same name, perennially (mãi mãi, bất diệt) perky Elle Woods (played by Brooke Potts) is a girl who loves to be pampered and shop for the latest all-pink outfits. But don't let this seemingly ditsy fashionista fool you, this sorority sister (hội chị em nữ sinh) is not as green as she is cabbage-looking and doesn't take "no" for an answer.

A single mother whose child is the product of rape, Jane has done her best with what she has in order to provide for her son. Currently working at a reptile (lớp bò sát) zoo, entertaining kids and other guests, she might be not as green as she is cabbage-looking. But having to raise a son on her own hasn’t allowed her the same privileges in life the other girls have been able to enjoy.

As noted above, while Dylan initially comes across as dim (mơ hồ) and clueless (không manh mối), he’s not actually as green as he is cabbage-looking. We find out when Haley meets back up with him in the last season that Dylan is studying to become a nurse. This is no easy feat (chiến công, kỳ tích), which means assuming Dylan passes and becomes a nurse, there is some serious brainpower (trí thông minh) hiding in his noggin (ca nhỏ).
