@enempress I agree about her not being really a villainess and it being silly to keep getting leada without flaws
I do think that the part about getting financially stable in 6 months is not that unreasonable- she had a job as a seamstress, and was doing work on the side, and then in six months time had gotten a slightly better paying job. Since seamstress is a job you can walk into if you could show an employer you were capable, this isn't that unreasonable. She also isn't making bank, she's just been able to rent better rooms. It's pretty reasonable especially if we consider that they likely were able to sell the jewelry they were wearing and dresses made from expensive fabrics when kicked out to even out those emergency weeks.
