124: Liu Ya Gave Guan Chibei Her Handmade Socks

Liu Ya Gave Guan Chibei Her Handmade Socks

"Sixth Brother Guan…"0

Another timid cry sounded. Liu Ya's voice was thin and she always lowered her voice, so it sounded especially sentimental. To young men who had a desire to protect, this type of woman and her performance hit their hearts the best.

Guan Chibei was stopped again. Liu Ya was afraid that she would not be able to call him back if he went into the river. She quickly took out a fishing net and a pair of white cloth socks from the basket.

"Sixth Brother Guan, I saw that you had to catch fish with your bare hands every time you come out to fish lately. Therefore, when taking care of my younger siblings at home, I made a fishing net for you…"

Liu Ya looked at Guan Chibei lovingly. The first time Guan Chibei fished, he had brought along a fishing net with him. However, subsequently, he only brought a bamboo basket each time. Liu Ya thought that his fishing net was damaged, so he could only catch fish with his bare hands.

"Also…" Liu Ya's fair cheeks were suddenly dyed with a large patch of red. A fair, thin, and young girl's blush was lethal when she was embarrassed. It was as if she was extremely shy. Liu Ya handed over the white cloth socks in her hand and said softly,

"Sister-in-law has to take care of the babies, so she definitely wouldn't have the time to sew for Sixth Brother Guan. However, it's cold now. Even if men are strong, Sixth Brother Guan can't just wear shoes. I… I can stitch and thread well. When I had time, I sewed a pair of socks for Sixth Brother Guan."

Liu Ya's face was flushed red. Giving a fishing net was just a side act to fool people. Giving socks was the real deal.

For a woman to give a man socks… the meaning was practically obvious. This was a private and ambiguous matter.

Therefore, Liu Ya appeared extremely shy and weak. Her thin face was also flushed red, revealing an appropriate hint of seduction.

Unexpectedly, Guan Chibei did not see through her thoughts or receive her kind intentions. His expression did not change as he said to Liu Ya,

"No need. I don't need a fishing net."

Liu Ya was slightly stunned and did not understand what he meant.

At the next moment, Liu Ya watched helplessly as Guan Chibei went down the river and stood in the not-so-deep river water. He looked calm and did not move. He was really not afraid of the cold.

Then, when three or four catties of big black fish in the river swam towards him, for some reason, they all stopped, as if they weren't swimming but floating in the river.

The fish seemed to be stunned.

A school of fish surrounded Guan Chibei.

Guan Chibei was calm and composed. He took the basket he had brought with him and scooped the fish from the river effortlessly.

The sluggish grass carps were easily scooped into the basket.

"It can't hold any more fish." Guan Chibei scooped up about twenty fish before the basket was full. This basket was specially made by Father Guan. Guan Chibei had told him to weave according to his specifications. It was several times the size of an ordinary basket. It was similar to a huge-sized back basket.

After filling a large basket with fish, Guan Chibei turned around and walked towards the shore. At this moment, he said calmly to Liu Ya,

"Look, this is how I fish. I don't need a fishing net."

Liu Ya's entire body froze, and her expression slowly cracked.

Guan Chibei went ashore and shook off the water on his feet. He put on straw shoes and carried the basket full of fish back to the Guan family.

When he passed by Liu Ya, he said, "There's no need for socks. You should take them back. Don't be so kind in the future. I'll fish and sell them. Ten copper coins can buy five pairs of shoes. If I change a pair every day, I can change for five days."
