Chapter 381 I’m afraid I’m looking at a man
Ye Li passed by a house where an old man was repairing his fishing net. A tattered fishing net was hanging on their woodshed.
"Uncle, do you still want this fishing net?"
The old man glanced at Ye Li, smiled and said, "Are you the new girl?"
"Yeah." Ye Li nodded.
The old man smiled again, pointed at the fishing net and said, "It's just a broken fishing net. If you want it, just take it."
"Thank you, uncle." Ye Li was extremely surprised. He thanked him again and again, and then went to take down the broken fishing net.
After taking the fishing net home, Ye Li used scissors to cut the good lines from the fishing net one by one, and then tied them together. After an hour's work, two fishing lines were made.
As for the fish hook, she had just seen the uncle using a big needle to sew a fishing net, and she thought of a good idea. She could burn the embroidery needle red and then bend it. Wouldn't that be a fish hook?
The men in the tribe who went out fishing in the morning returned home for lunch.
Ye Li boiled the remaining half of the fish, then stir-fried some wild vegetables and mushrooms and ate them together for lunch. Finally, he ate some grapes that were placed at the door in the morning and rested for a while.
After the men had their lunch break and went out to fish, Ye Li also took his own equipment and went fishing.
She wore a tattered straw hat and sat in a small armchair. She baited the fishing rod and threw it into the river. She put it aside, watching the float and waiting for the fish to bite.
After putting down both fishing rods, Ye Li began to observe his surroundings leisurely.
The men of the fishing tribe were preparing to board the boat and go out on the river, while the women continued to wash the clothes and bedding that had not been washed in the morning.
The men all looked at Ye Li strangely, and started talking about it with laughter.
"Do you think she's looking at us?"
"It seems so. It seems she is choosing the right man to be her."
"I think she's looking at me."
The bachelors on the boat were excited. They took off their clothes and showed their muscles without saying a word. When fishing, they used all their strength just to show their strength in front of Ye Li.
The women washing clothes under the shade of trees by the river were also chattering away.
Among them, Jiang Yunfei is the backbone, because she is Ye Li's neighbor.
"Did she tell you who she's interested in in the tribe?"
Jiang Yunfei shook her head and said, "She said that marriage is a big deal and should be taken seriously."
"That's quite the right thing to think. If you marry the wrong person, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."
According to the rules of the fisherman tribe, a woman can only be with one man in her lifetime, unless her man dies, otherwise she can only live with one man in this life.
Ye Li felt the river breeze, her mood relaxing for a rare moment. She glanced at the boats on the river, examining them carefully. Logically, if Xiao Xun was in the tribe, as a man, shouldn't he be out fishing? Why was she nowhere to be seen?
The women were still gossiping.
"Hey, Yun Fei, what do you think she is doing?"
Another woman chimed in, "I'm afraid she's looking at a man."
"Haha..." This caused everyone to burst into laughter.
Jiang Yunfei shook her head and said, "I don't know what she's doing. But her family is out of food, so she must be thinking about finding a man to marry."
"Well, that should be it."
The women all agreed that Ye Li was looking for a marriage partner. After all, in this tribe, it was difficult for women to survive without the help of men.
Even the chief's daughter Shui Linglong will have to find a man to marry in the future so that she can continue to live a life of luxury.
