lets be honest people arent that nice for no reason....
and any positive feelings from townsfolk towards her mother would have disappeared over the years
also that were the people that pressured her mother to move out of town and basicly incarcerate her own daughter
nit to mention that what they would normaly have to buy her craft items for what they just now have gotten for free with a few praising words....
there you go a reason for them to be nice because they had a need for her
and if im brutally honest if people were as kind and nice on the surface as depicted in this manga than corona wouldnt spread like a plague again and again
