"It's okay. Changsheng is married and an adult now. He won't be beaten by Changsheng's grandmother like before." Seeing Changsheng looking at his chest nervously, Xiao Zhuzi couldn't help but persuade Changsheng.

Changsheng didn't listen to Xiaozhuzi's words. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. If he took out as many gold beans as possible, would his wife not blame him for getting his clothes dirty?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible. In order to prevent his wife from getting angry with him, Changsheng quickened his pace in digging the mud.

A child who was playing with the mud pit near Changsheng grabbed a hard lump of mud. Thinking it was a stone mixed in the mud, he picked it up and threw it to the side, which happened to fall at Changsheng's feet.

Changsheng felt something hit the back of his foot and then rolled to the ground. He lowered his head to look at his feet and saw a very familiar lump of mud.

Changsheng glanced at the child and muttered softly: "That's a good thing..."

Unfortunately, none of the children who were playing and laughing heard Changsheng’s words.

Changsheng waited for a while, but he didn't see the child pick it up. He pursed his lips and muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "You didn't want it anymore, I didn't ask you to take it."

His voice was so soft that even the people squatting next to him couldn't hear what he said.

Changsheng picked up an extra golden bean and felt quite happy.

If you pick up a lot of golden beans, you won’t be scolded when you go back.

After a while, Xiao Zhuzi also dug out a lump of mud.

He was not as careless as the previous child. He tentatively used his fingertips to rub off some of the mud on the golden beans. Sure enough, a hint of golden color appeared in the mud.

Xiao Zhuzi felt a little bit unbelievable. He wiped it on his clothes again to make sure that he was not dazzled.

He was excited and happy, and his eyes brightened up several degrees.

He looked at Changsheng's little movements again and realized that the foolish person was not Changsheng, but them.

After Xiao Zhuzi discovered the secret in the mud, he didn't say anything. He just turned his head to look at the teenagers on the shore who were taller than them, then he completely shut his mouth and imitated Changsheng, grabbing in the mud with his hands.

After a while, he really caught a few golden beans.

Xiao Zhuzi didn't care whether his clothes were dirty or not. Like Changsheng, he stuffed the mud into his arms with his hands still covered in mud.

The other children were all stunned. Xiao Zhuzi gave everyone a look and showed them the mud balls in his hand.

We have been playing together since we were young, so there is some tacit understanding between us.

They didn't know what the mud-covered things were, and what was the point of storing them?

But none of these prevents them from acting in accordance with the rules.

Yes, just because of keeping the action consistent.

You put mud lumps in it, and I put some in too, let's see who can put in more!

A group of children were working hard to mix the mud. They dug out mud as they mixed it, and they actually caught several lumps of mud.

Changsheng was much busier than those children. He was digging in the middle, where there were the most mud lumps. He soon grabbed a handful of mud and stuffed it into his arms.

The others had to grope around in there for a while before they could grab a handful of mud lumps.

In this way, the mud monkeys played in the mud until the sun set.

Originally everyone was touching the mud lumps, but as the mud lumps became fewer and fewer, the children's minds were all focused on the mud, and they forgot that they had several mud lumps in their arms!

"Ah! The sun is about to set!"

"Oh! It's so late, I have to go back to eat!"

At this moment, a child pricked up his ears immediately after hearing this and listened towards the bottom of the mountain for a while, "Oh no, I think I heard my mother calling me!"

All the children ran away in a swarm, disappearing without a trace.

Gu Erniu and the others had already become impatient of waiting.

Just now they searched seriously for a while, but after searching for more than an hour, they still found nothing. A few of them lost their patience and squatted on the shore waiting.

Seeing that Changsheng and his friends had played in the mud for the entire afternoon and had done nothing, and no one had picked up any golden beans, they knew that now, even if they wanted to grab the golden beans, there was nothing they could grab.

In the end, they had no choice but to let those little rascals go reluctantly.

"Changsheng, aren't you going back?" Xiao Zhuzi didn't leave with him. Instead, he squatted down beside Changsheng and whispered in his ear, "The mud lumps are golden beans, Changsheng, don't you think so?"

Changsheng ignored him and continued digging in the mud.

Changsheng didn't respond to him, and Xiaozhuzi didn't care. Instead, he advised, "Changsheng, go back!

You've been kneading mud here for so long, others will definitely think too much and guess what's going on... What if they come to steal the things we worked so hard to get out?

Let's play in the mud tomorrow! This way we won't attract attention, and the key is that no one will think that we are playing in the mud to dig for gold!" Xiao Zhuzi continued to persuade.

Changsheng finally understood what Xiaozhuzi meant.

He stood up and looked around. Seeing that Gu Erniu and other teenagers with the surname Gu were looking at them from time to time, Changsheng immediately pursed his lips.

Seeing that Changsheng had listened to his words, Xiao Zhuzi pulled Changsheng up the shore.

When Gu Erniu and his friends saw that the two were covered in mud, they ran straight down the mountain as soon as they got ashore. They did not plan to look for golden beans in the ravine before leaving. He knew that there was no hope of getting golden beans today.

Just like that, Changsheng, Xiaozhuzi and the other children went down the mountain with the golden beans in their pockets under the watchful eyes of the teenagers from the Gu family.

After Changsheng and Xiaozhuzi came down the mountain, they each carried golden beans back home.

When Shen Rong saw Changsheng take out a handful of mud lumps from his arms, she was completely stunned.

"Changsheng! Why are you putting mud in your pockets? How can I wash this dirty dress?"

Shen Rong's first reaction was to think that Changsheng was confused again, but she immediately felt that it was impossible!

Because Changsheng almost always went into the space to plant medicinal herbs, he would lie on the ground whenever he had nothing to do.

Changsheng has made obvious progress compared to before, so it is impossible for him to suddenly become confused again.

Changsheng shrank his neck, feeling a little nervous, but when he saw what was in his hand, he felt more confident, "It's not mud. Here you go."

He handed the mud balls to Shen Rong as if he had obtained something good, with a silly smile on his face.

Seeing that he looked like he was presenting a treasure, Shen Rong didn't want to spoil his fun, so she reached out and took the mud ball.

As soon as Shen Rong got the mud balls in her hands, she found something wrong. The feel of these mud balls was something Shen Rong was very familiar with.

Seeing Changsheng still trying to take money out, she immediately stopped him with a serious face.

"No, don't take it out yet, come inside and talk with me."

Shen Rong pulled Changsheng into the kitchen. She scooped half a basin of water and put the mud ball in her hand into the basin.

As soon as the clay ball entered the water, its original golden appearance was revealed, and the water in the basin was no longer clear.

Shen Rong took a deep breath. Changsheng's arms were stuffed bulging. If they were all golden beans, it would be probably more than the golden beans they had picked up before.

"Take out everything in your arms and put it in the basin!"

Changsheng heard this and reached into his arms, one, two, three, four...

The clear water in the basin had long since turned into muddy yellow water, and it was impossible to see what was inside the basin. Only then did Changsheng stop scooping it out.

"Gone……"
