The short days passed in this way, and the patriarch came over in a beautifully decorated boat.
The boat was very big and could easily accommodate forty or fifty people. It was covered with flowers, hung with lanterns, and decorated with bright red silk. It felt like a wedding boat.
As soon as they reached the shore, the clan leader and several villagers bowed respectfully to Hongyu.
"Miss Hongyu, our Shuitian Village depends on you. No matter what the outcome is, we are grateful for everything you have done for us."
After bowing, the patriarch pointed at the big ship, wanting to show it to Hongyu.
"Miss Hongyu, look, isn't this boat beautiful?"
Hongyu blushed after taking a look.
Jixiang said mercilessly: "Why are you dressed so fancy? It's like you're getting married in the boudoir."
The patriarch laughed and introduced it with great pride.
"In our beauty pageants, participating women must ride on the most beautiful and high-end boats to show their nobility. To put it bluntly, this also adds points."
"What does this boat have to do with beautiful women? It even counts towards the score."
The patriarch sighed.
"It doesn't matter, but clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse. A gorgeous appearance is also crucial. The most beautiful boat carries the most beautiful woman, and the woman shouts the loudest slogan of her hometown. This link is very important."
After hearing this, everyone finally understood that beauty pageants are not just about selecting candidates with just a glance, but also involve many aspects of testing and many steps.
After understanding the situation, everyone boarded the boat one after another. The cabin was very large and everyone had a room. Outside the cabin, at the bow, there was a circular platform, where the beauties participating in the contest stood when entering.
After everyone settled in the boat, a village girl brought clothes and jewelry.
The jewelry has a strong aquatic character, and is mostly carved with fish, shrimp, coral, shells, gold, silver and other gems.
Hongyu picked it up and looked at it, thinking it was quite unique, but when she reached the clothes, she screamed.
"Ah! What is this?"
Seeing Hongyu blushing and covering her eyes with her hands, everyone looked at the clothes.
There were several sets of clothes to choose from, all of which were extremely shiny and dazzling. The sequins on them looked like stars in the sky. There was nothing wrong with them, it was just the material.
The material was mostly transparent gauze, the kind that was particularly revealing. When Jixiang and the others saw it, they immediately felt embarrassed.
But the patriarch walked forward without any hesitation and picked up a gauze skirt to show Hongyu.
"Miss Hongyu, this material is called Roushuisha, which is a relatively precious fabric here. It is light, thin and breathable, and very suitable for beauty pageants!"
"Chief, give this dress to your granddaughter."
After saying that, Jixiang was about to hit him.
The patriarch stepped back repeatedly, not knowing why the young man wanted to hit him.
"What's wrong with you, dear guest? Why are you hitting me?"
"Why, this dress is so revealing, who are you humiliating?"
After hearing this, the patriarch slapped his head.
"Oh! It's unfair! The reason these clothes are revealing is to show off Miss Hongyu's strengths!"
The patriarch ran over again and picked up a light blue gauze skirt.
"This one is a vest, only the size of a palm, which can reveal Miss Hongyu's scales. Moreover, the hollow is in the shape of a flower, and Miss Hongyu's scales are as dazzling as a red plum blossom when exposed."
After that, he picked up a pink gauze skirt.
"This dress only reveals the waistline, and the upper part is embroidered with flower petals. When Miss Hongyu puts it on, it looks like she is wearing a golden red belt."
Afterwards, the patriarch introduced the design concept of each gauze skirt one by one, and he felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke.
"These past few days, I've been busy with this, so that Hongyu's advantages can be highlighted and everyone can see her beautiful scales. I also thought that Miss Hongyu might find it difficult to accept, but I have already put my heart into it."
Finally, the patriarch picked up the clothes that Hongyu had just seen screaming.
It was a golden-red gauze dress that looked like ruby scales. It was the most revealing one. It not only exposed the palm-sized vest, the inch-wide waist, but also the neck. The most revealing thing was that the hem of the skirt had a slit, so you could see your calves when you walked.
No wonder Jixiang wanted to beat up the patriarch when he saw him.
"This dress is actually the best, combining beauty and exposure in one, but I also know that Miss Hongyu will not choose this one, so I just gave up.
"Then let's go with this one!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned, and even the patriarch thought he was hallucinating.
Hongyu picked up the gauze dress.
“The dress is the same colour as my scales, so at first glance you can’t tell how revealing it is.
"Also, the people of the Shuize Region consider aquatic animal bones beautiful, so the more animal bones on display, the more advantages we should have."
The patriarch was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
"Miss Hongyu, you are truly a great benefactor of our Shuitian tribe!"
Originally, the clan leader was hesitant about this beauty pageant, but Hongyu was willing to wear this dress, which proved that she would show her best posture, which made her more confident!
"Hongyu, don't be embarrassed. Don't force yourself to accept this dress. I will support you."
Hongyu looked at Jixiang with gentle eyes.
"Jixiang, I won't make it difficult for you. Thank you. I have lived in darkness for so many years. I also want to see the sunshine."
Jixiang looked into Hongyu's eyes, and gradually he discovered that the timid, inferior Hongyu with sadness in her eyes seemed to have changed.
She is like a white swan who has always lived in a world of crows. This time she finally returns to her swan group and no longer has to be lonely.
"Okay, as long as you are willing, I will accompany you to the end."
Hongyu went into the house, put on the dress, and then walked out slowly. She was not wearing shoes, but had an ankle bell tied around her ankle, which jingled with every step.
The gorgeous golden-red gauze dress sparkled with silver flakes, which formed a perfect whole with her exposed scales. With every step she took, she swayed gracefully.
Everyone was stunned.
"Okay, great!"
The tribe leader burst into tears. The Water Field Tribe will definitely get the chance to be baptized. It would be unfair if such a beautiful person didn't get first place.
In this way, after sailing for half a day, we arrived at the competition venue. Looking around, we saw countless flower boats of all sizes.
There are many waters in the North Land, and each of them has many tribes. Most of the tribes participating in the election this time are large tribes with some background and money.
A small number of them are relatively poor small tribes. In order to get a chance, several tribes join forces to recommend a beauty. In the end, if successful, several tribes will allocate baptism places.
The beauty pageant venue was extremely lively at this time. Many flower boats were lined up in a long queue according to the first-come-first-served order. The patriarch parked his boat behind an extra-large flower boat.
That boat can probably accommodate one or two hundred people. Who would be so generous as to spend such a huge amount of money to send a woman to participate in the competition?
At this moment, a young girl walked out.
"Hey! Stay away from me, that little wreck down there. Which little tribe are you from? Don't you have eyes?"
