Bai Xiao lowered her head, "Uncle, this... is too much trouble for you. I don't even know... how to thank you!"
Li Chunmei wrapped her arms around Bai Xiao's shoulders and patted her back to comfort her, "It's okay! Xiao, you have people standing up for you, don't worry, don't be scared in the future! You have to speak up; only then can people know and help you. Remember, wherever we go, we don't do anything underhanded, but we also can't let others trample over us. Liupan Village is your home, and the villagers are your support; you have people to protect you!"
She hoped this girl could change her temperament a bit and not get bullied outside.
Bai Xiao nodded and tucked the admission notice into her clothing close to her body. People at that time were used to sewing a pocket inside their undershirt, for putting anything valuable they were worried about losing, even a safety pin was considered very important.
