After Chu He knitted this scarf for Gu Jinglian, the man immediately put it to use, even before the weather had turned cold.

Everyone in the Gu family was shocked to see him wearing the scarf. It was only autumn now and the weather had only just cooled, but Gu Jinglian already had a thick scarf on. Many of them were taken aback.

Then Baby Chu saw it…

And an argument with Chu He ensued.

“Why does Daddy have a scarf to wear but I don’t? Mommy, didn’t you say you were going to knit me a scarf?” The boy was a little angry. He had initially thought that the first scarf that Chu He knitted would be for him, but when he saw Gu Jinglian wearing it, his eyes turned bloodshot.

Chu He said comfortingly, “Don’t you already have several scarves?”

“But… I want to wear one knitted by Mommy!” He continued coquettishly, “If Mommy knitted a scarf for me, Baby Chu would wear it every day. Even if it’s hot in summer, I won’t take it off!”

Chu He fell silent Indeed this child was that man’s son. They even give similar answers.

Chu He coaxed the boy, “Alright! I promise to knit a hat for you, alright?”

When Baby Chu heard this, he nodded excitedly. “Okay! I like the color green. It’s best if it’s green like a lake, or I wouldn’t mind an apple green too.”

“Green… wait.” Chu He’s eyelids twitched. “A green… hat?”

“Yes. Is something wrong?”

Baby Chu obviously did not understand the deeper meaning behind green hats. He continued, “Actually, it’s fine if it’s not green. Blue looks good too. I like green and blue.”

“Pfft…” Chu He was greatly amused and replied, “I’ll knit you a blue hat then!”

“Okay.”

At night, Chu He held back her laughter and told Gu Jinglian about Baby Chu pestering her to knit a green hat.

When Gu Jinglian heard this, his face turned ashen. “A green hat, as in being made a cuckold?”

“The boy likes green, don’t you know?”

Chu He continued, “He especially likes green, blue, and purple. However, how can I knit a green hat? He doesn’t know the meaning behind it!”

Gu Jinglian despised it.

Why was his son so stupid?

It was hard to imagine that this was his son.

This could not be real.

“Is this a nice shade of blue?” Chu He had started to select the yarn, and was hesitating between the lake blue and the blue-gray.

Gu Jinglian suggested, “The lake blue color looks better. It suits him.”

“Uh huh.” Chu He agreed and selected the color. She started to cast on the stitches.

In recent days, her addiction to knitting seemed to be growing. She ordered a few books on knitting from the bookstore, and she found new tricks to the craft every day. She was enjoying it.

Gu Jinglian leaned against the headboard of the bed and watched the knitting needles darting in and out between the strings of yarn. After completing a scarf, she had become much more skilled. She was considered an intelligent woman, and had the ability to learn everything quickly. Other than her low EQ, she was very enlightened in other aspects!

Gu Jinglian snorted and reminded her, “It’s getting late! Time to sleep!”

“There are still a few stitches to go. I’ll be done soon.”

Gu Jinglian did not allow her to say another word. He snatched the needles from her hand and placed it on the bedside table. He drew her into his embrace and coaxed her. “You’re not allowed to knit anymore.”

“Oh!”

Since he said that, she could only go along, allowing him to cover her with the blanket and turn off the lights.

Hugging her, the man said, “Goodnight!”

“Good night.” Chu He put her arms around his shoulders and closed her eyes.
