After Rebirth, Minor Character Only Wants to Level Up

Just a small gesture, yet it brought tears to Ye Ling’s eyes. In her previous life, she was truly too unaware, causing her grandmother to pass away without ever being at ease about her.

Sniffing, Ye Ling said crisply, "Grandma, put the bag down and sit. I’m young and standing doesn’t tire me. Besides, coming from the countryside, what’s there to be delicate about? It’s not like I haven’t seen chickens before. So just sit down."

Compared to the other kids in the village, she was indeed pampered. She never did chores, never worked in the fields, didn’t even clean up after meals, and never washed her own clothes. But all of this was nothing compared to her sister who grew up in the city.

Besides, girls from the countryside who can’t do any work only get looked down upon by city people. In her previous life, after returning to live in the family courtyard, Ye Ling suffered from such disdain. Yet she was innately stubborn and couldn’t tolerate any remarks, learning to do chores secretly and enduring the hardships.

Later, she was capable of almost everything, and her mother always praised her. Before getting married, she took on all the household chores, just for a word of praise from her mother, with no complaints, working tirelessly like an ox without feeling weariness. It was only when she lay alone in a rented room that she realized how ridiculous she was, no matter how well she did, she was forever like an outsider in her mother’s eyes.

Ye Ling’s thoughts were pulled back in an instant by her grandmother’s words, "Child, Grandma’s not tired. You sit down and rest a bit."

Saying this, her grandmother used her calloused hands to tug at her granddaughter’s jacket, "You child, I told you to wear that blue coat. Aren’t you cold?"

"Grandma, didn’t I bring the coat? I’ll put it on soon." The red-checked clothes she wore were sent from the city, unwanted by her sister.

In her previous life, Ye Ling always treated it like a treasure, even wearing it the first time she went with her grandmother to spend the New Year with her parents. But upon reaching the city and seeing her sister dressed even better, she got mad and, in front of her parents, threw the red-checked clothes to the ground. Ye’s father, with his fiery temper, slapped Ye Ling directly.

Old Mrs. Ye was furious back then, scolded her son’s nose, and directly took Ye Ling back to their hometown, not staying for the New Year.
