Chapter 453 What Are You Digging For?

[Recite the URL three times silently. Do you remember it? If not, I will ask again in the next chapter. It would be best if you can share it on Facebook for me]

Su Qingmei walked with a few children along the coastline behind a reef, and saw a few half-grown children squatting on the beach, digging something with something in their hands.

"What are you digging?" Xiaobao was very curious and asked after taking two quick steps.

A few half-grown children, wearing gray patched clothes, with their trouser legs and sleeves rolled up high, squatted barefoot on the beach, each holding a wooden tool in their hands.

They were digging with their heads down and didn't pay attention. Suddenly, they saw a group of people walking towards them. The half-grown children were startled.

They hurriedly picked up the basket beside them, stood up in a hurry, hugged the basket tightly in their arms, and hid behind a bigger child.

The older child, who was not very old, looked about ten years old, tightly grasped the tool in his hand and looked at Su Qingmei and others.

"Who are you?"

As he spoke, he retreated into the sea. They are good swimmers. If the other party wants to catch them, they will flee into the sea.

"This is worthless, you don't like it." The child said bravely while retreating.

Several children surrounded the half-grown child, retreating in fear, nodding in agreement: "Yes, it's worthless, you don't like it."

Seeing that the children were scared, Su Qingmei hurriedly called Xiaobao.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people." She comforted.

Several children looked at this young and beautiful woman, not daring to relax at all.

Su Qingmei looked at Xiaoqi beside her, smiled at her, and pushed her.

Xiaoqi immediately understood and took two steps forward: "Brother, don't be afraid, my parents and my brother are not bad people. We are here to play. Brother, sister, what were you digging just now? Xiaoqi wants to dig too."

The little girl said and tiptoed to see what was in the other party's basket.

But there was still a distance of ten steps away, so she couldn't see.

Among the children, there was a little girl who was about six or seven years old. She looked at Su Qingmei, then at Xiaoqi, and pulled the corner of the older child's clothes: "Fourth brother, they don't look like bad people."

The face of the child called Fourth Brother was a little relaxed.

When Xiaoqi saw that the other party did not answer her, he ran over: "Xiaoqi wants to dig too."

She ran over to the place where the children were squatting just now, and started digging with her hands.

"You can't dig like that, your hands will get hurt!" The little girl hurriedly said to Xiaoqi.

"Sister, what should I use to dig?"

"Use this." She threw the wooden rake in her hand to Xiaoqi, and her footsteps moved.

"Are you digging clams?" Su Qingmei also walked over.

The little girl looked at Su Qingmei and nodded at her.

"Can I take a look? Let me see how big the clams here are."

The little girl saw Su Qingmei smiling at her again and speaking gently, so she walked towards her with the basket in her arms.

"There are big ones and small ones."

"Really? Let me see." Su Qing'an looked into her basket.

"Mom, Xiao Qi wants to see too!" Xiao Qi immediately stood up and pried into the basket to see.

Xiao Bao, Da Bao and others also came over.

The fishermen's children became nervous again.

Su Qing'an handed the basket to Da Bao, asking him to hold it and show it to his brothers and sisters. She took out a handful of candies from the pouch on her waist and handed it to the little girl.

"Here, this is candy. Share it with you and your brothers. We are not bad people. We just brought a few children from my family to the beach to see. They are curious about the sea for the first time."

The little girl looked at the candy in Su Qing'an's hand, swallowed her saliva, looked back at her brother, and seeing that her brother did not object, she quickly reached out to take it.

"Brother, candy." The little girl happily raised the candy in her hand to her brother. Several children surrounded her and stared at the candy in her hand.

She gave one to each of them.

The children were all very happy. He immediately tore off the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth.

The older boy didn't eat it, so he put it in his pocket.

Perhaps because they really wanted to be grateful, several boys handed the baskets in their hands to Su Qing'an.

"Madam, I have clams here too, let me show you."

"Okay, thank you." Su Qing'an took it and saw that there were big and small ones, the big ones were as big as a child's palm, and the small ones were as big as two fingers, and the patterns on them were also beautiful.

"Mom, Xiaoqi wants to dig too."

"I'll teach you how to dig."

"I'll teach you how to dig too."

After a while, Dabao, Xiaobao and others played with several fishermen's children, squatting and digging clams with them.

Without a wooden rake, they used their hands, wooden sticks and stones found on the shore to dig.

"Mom, look, I dug a big one!"

"I dug one too! Mine is bigger than yours!"

"I'll dig a bigger one."

Even Qingxing, Pei Zhi and Qingyang couldn't help squatting and digging.

Zou Cheng followed Xiao Wu and ran out of the village in a hurry. This was the scene he saw.

Several children from their village were digging clams with the strangers, laughing. His grandson's voice was the loudest: "Your clams are not as big as the ones I just dug. The one I dug last time was as big as my grandfather's hand. Each one weighed several kilograms."

"Si Wa, don't brag. It's several kilograms. It's only one or two kilograms at most."

"Not even that. It weighs several kilograms. I still have the shell! If you don't believe me, I'll bring it to you later!"

The dozen men and women who followed Zou Cheng from the village were also stunned. Look at the rake, wooden stick, and shovel he is holding in his hand. This...

"Shanwazi, what's going on?"

"Grandpa, the village chief, I don't know either. They came with a lot of people, a lot of carriages, and horses, with women and guards. I don't know what they are here for."

"Village chief, it doesn't look like you are here to collect fishing tax, is it? Are you bringing your family to collect fishery tax?"

"Is it really just some wealthy family who came here with their children to play?"

Lu Bocheng's guards had actually discovered this group of people long ago.

At first, I saw a few children. I saw a cat peeking at them from behind a bush. I didn't see them doing anything, so I ignored them. But now that more than a dozen men with weapons have arrived, we can no longer pretend not to see them.

"Who is it!" A guard shouted toward the bushes.

The voice was loud and murderous, frightening Village Chief Zou and others to the point where their legs went weak.

"come out!"

"We, we are either bad guys, we are villagers from nearby villages." Village Chief Zou led the villagers out with a trembling voice.

"Village people? What do you want with a rake and a shovel?" The guards walked towards them with swords in hand.

When everyone in Leshan Village saw the other party showing off their weapons, they were so frightened that they threw away the rakes in their hands.

Village Chief Zou walked over with his hands raised: "Hero, don't do it, don't do it. We are villagers from a nearby village. We heard that a noble person came to the beach, and we came to take a look."

Come and see, are you armed?

"Go and report to your lord."

"Yes." A guard ran towards the seaside.

Big, my lord? Village Chief Zou fell to the ground softly. It's over.

All the villagers also looked ashen.
