Most of the villagers in Little Lin Village were generally simple and kind-hearted. Their attitude towards Lin Miao had turned cold because they felt she had been ungrateful.
Keen observers could easily discern the resentment held by the Gu family towards the Lin family.
The Gu family had likely believed that Lin Miao had suffered a lot in the Lin family and the village. It was evident that she had never spoken a fair word about the Lin family that had raised her.
Ironically, Lin Miao had been living a pampered life in the village in recent years. She didn't have to do laundry or household chores. Apart from studying, her life mainly revolved around leisure, making the surrounding young girls envy her.
Her family conditions were slightly better than some other families who adhered to the traditional preference for boys over girls. Some girls in other families were even treated like beasts of burden, while Lin Miao was akin to the young mistress of the Lin family.
