Chapter 426 Encountering Bullying in Ancient Times
Zhao had to explain her greed, "What are you talking about? Well, lately I've been feeling a bit short of breath. I don't know if it's because I suddenly started working in the fields. Maybe I'm just tired?"

She said this, and it was actually quite funny; she had come here to ask for ginseng.

What doesn't Su Xiaoxiao know?

"Well, I don't need to take that many, and I can't eat that many anyway, so just cut me any slice."

This ginseng looks like a high-quality product; it would be very difficult not to be tempted by it.

Su Xiaoxiao knew Zhao's true colors all too well. She could tell that Zhao had something on her mind, and she felt a little itchy inside.

She knew better than to say anything, but considering that Zhao had been injured while helping in her field, she couldn't remain silent. Otherwise, given Zhao's personality, she would probably nag her for a long time.

"No need, just take the whole ginseng root. Nobody in our family needs it anyway. It's just decorations in the house!"

Without any hesitation, Su Xiaoxiao handed the exquisitely packaged ginseng gift box directly to Zhao Shi.

"Take this home and eat it, sister-in-law. I think you really need to take good care of yourself. You're so weak that you're panting when you walk!"

Zhao took the ginseng box, secretly overjoyed.

But those words sound a bit harsh, don't they? Is she so weak that she needs to take tonics? But can she argue back? They gave her such a good ginseng root, so even if the words were unpleasant, she endured them.

As for the wound? The small cut on Zhao's finger was almost healed before Su Xiaoxiao even had to bandage it.

Seeing Zhao's satisfied expression, Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Sister-in-law, how has Xiao Shitou been behaving lately?"

After rolling her eyes a few times, Zhao pretended that nothing was wrong and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "He's been alright lately, hasn't caused any trouble."

Now, whenever Little Stone is mentioned, it's usually related to those messy things, and Su Xiaoxiao knows that Zhao Shi feels guilty.

She could tell that Zhao was very protective of Xiao Shitou, but for an adopted child, Zhao seemed to have a deep affection for Xiao Shitou.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I ran into Xiao Shitou on my way home yesterday. He was being beaten by several other boys in the village."

Upon hearing this, Zhao immediately became very anxious. She anxiously asked Su Xiaoxiao, "You said my little Shitou was bullied by those kids in the village? Which child is so wicked...?"

"Sister-in-law, please calm down! Let me explain..."

Su Xiaoxiao really didn't expect Zhao Shi to react so excitedly.

Su Xiaoxiao then recounted the events of yesterday to Zhao Shi.

It turned out that yesterday evening, after Su Xiaoxiao finished tending to the rice seedlings in the field, she saw a group of little boys on her way home, besieging a child who was shorter than all of them.

Su Xiaoxiao knew that this must be bullying the little boy, and she couldn't ignore it.

If they're just kids, you can scare them a little and tell them not to bully other children like that again.

Su Xiaoxiao thought that when she saw this situation, she had to intervene immediately. She needed to nip these children's tendency to bully and harass others in the bud, before they matured mentally. Otherwise, who knew what other serious mistakes they might commit in the future?

Regardless of whether these children's parents have properly educated these bad kids, any adult who happens to pass by and sees such bullying of classmates, even if they don't know them, should stop them and say a few words of advice.

Many people are numb to this and don't do anything about it. But what if it were something else, like a beautiful woman shouting in the street that she had been sexually assaulted by a thug?

See? Those passing gentlemen all pounced on them, their sense of justice overflowing. Actually, nowadays we see many cases of bullying in schools, but they might not happen on campus, so teachers and principals can't see it.

If it happens outside of school, our righteous folks should also step in and intervene, perhaps stopping those bad students in time to prevent them from harming an innocent life.

Su Xiaoxiao only realized when she got closer that the child being attacked was actually Xiao Shitou.

Su Xiaoxiao felt even more compelled to intervene, and she shouted, "Hey, you kids, stop right now!"

Some of the local bullies were even taller than Su Xiaoxiao. When they saw Su Xiaoxiao, a woman, they naturally didn't take her seriously.

"Let me tell you, mind your own business! We're going to teach this guy a lesson today! Who told him not to pay us protection money!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "How old are you? You're already collecting protection money? Is this acceptable? If your parents found out, do you think you'd be okay?"

Surprisingly, those little bullies didn't care at all, "Haha..."

They started laughing. At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao realized that even if you tried to intimidate these little bandits by using their parents as leverage, it wouldn't work.

So she immediately adopted a tough stance, saying, "You can't bully him today. I won't allow it here. Let's see which of you dares to come over?"

Su Xiaoxiao immediately adopted a "If you dare come over here, I'll teach you a lesson" attitude.

This kind of stance is no joke. Su Xiaoxiao has learned Taekwondo, so dealing with this kind of village scoundrel is no problem for her.

The tallest boy rushed over and aimed a punch at Su Xiaoxiao, intending to hit her forehead. Su Xiaoxiao dodged it, then grabbed the boy's arm and twisted it into a pretzel shape in less than a second.

"you?"

The boy's face immediately contorted in pain as he screamed, "Let go!"

"Come and help me, everyone!" he called out to the other kids nearby.

The boys wanted to rush over immediately, but Su Xiaoxiao said to them, "Well, if you come over, you'll end up like him!"

After she finished speaking, she exerted a force, and the tall boy's arm immediately drooped down.

The little boy was already wincing in pain, and he cried out, "Help! Dear sister, please spare me! I'll never do it again!"

He looked pitiful, as if he was in so much pain that he couldn't breathe. Su Xiaoxiao dislocated his arm in one fell swoop.
