Happy peasant girls in space

Chapter 30
Today is the September [-]th Double Ninth Festival. Among the folks in Nancheng County, today is of great significance to them.

On this day, everyone has to climb high to look at the sea, choose a high mountain where you can see the sea, and pray to the sea.

This sea is located on the west side of Shiwanda Mountain. When you climb the highest mountain (Wanghai Ridge) in the Shiwandashan Mountain Range, you can see the boundless sea.

Everyone is also in the legend: the other side of the sea is the place where the gods live.Only on September [-]th of each year do they go out to sea.

Therefore, this day has been designated as an important festival for the people of Nancheng County to climb high and look at the sea to pray to the gods.However, in recent years, some rich and noble people in the county like to go directly to the sea to pray for blessings.

Wanghailing is located in the middle of Shiwanda Mountain, the back mountain of Liangjia Village.This place is not as cold and ghostly as the back mountain of Wangjia Village.

Wanghailing Mountain is bare, with only a few weeds and undergrowth. People climb up and play all year round.

Early in the morning, Liang Zhijie came to pick up Mai Duoduo to go to the county seat, because yesterday Lin Zhi came to invite him to go to sea together.Good intentions are hard to come by, so it’s not bad to take Duoer to have a look!
The two came to the pier in Nancheng County. Lin Zhi, Lin Mingzhu, and many rich young masters and young ladies were all waiting there.

Seeing Liang Zhijie and Mai Duoduo, Lin Zhi happily walked forward and said, "Brother Liang, Miss Mai, I'll just wait for you two."

As he spoke, he looked at Mai Duoduo who was behind Liang Zhijie. Mai Duoduo was wearing a light green gauze skirt today, like a green fairy descending to the mortal world.

Lin Mingzhu, who was joking with a few rich ladies here, looked at the gauze dress Mai Duoduo was wearing today, her mouth opened wide.

Is this Aunt Nomura who was driving an ox cart and singing a ditty a few days ago?

The other rich ladies looked at Mai Duoduo with excitement in their eyes: her skirt is so beautiful, if only I could ask where she sewed it.

Over there, Lin Zhi quickly put away the admiration in his eyes, and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, get on the boat!"

Then a group of young people sailed to the sea in a sailboat.

Meanwhile, Mai Dalang and Liu Guihua in Wangjiacun also got into the bullock cart and went to Wanghailing in Liangjiacun.

In addition to the couple, Mrs. Wang was also sitting on the bullock cart.Su, Qin, He, Liang, four sisters-in-law.In Wangjia Village, most of the people who go to pray every year are women.

After they arrived at Liangjia Village, it took them another hour to climb Wanghai Ridge, so as soon as Su Shi got into the carriage, she looked around, thinking that Liu Guihua must have brought something to eat.

But the clever Liu Guihua remained calm, chatting and laughing with the Liang family...

At this moment, on the sailboat floating in the sea, a group of young people crowded on the deck to watch the sea and pray for blessings.

Mai Duoduo and Liang Zhijie stood in a corner of the deck.The sea breeze blew gently, and Mai Duoduo reached out to embrace the sea happily.Wow!Haven't smelled the sea for a long time.

"Duo'er, you are so beautiful today, like a fairy descending to earth." Liang Zhijie gently stroked her long hair and looked at her affectionately.

"Have you ever seen a fairy?" Mai Duoduo glared at Liang Zhijie.

"I haven't seen it." Liang Zhijie shook his head.

"Then why do you say that I'm as beautiful as a fairy? No one has ever seen a fairy or not." Mai Duoduo started cheating again!

Liang Zhijie's mouth twitched when he heard Mai Duoduo's nonsense.Then he laughed. "Hahaha, you mean...".

Suddenly there was a "bang" from the other side of the deck, and then the sound of someone falling into the water was heard.

"Ah, no, Liu Shuangshuang fell into the sea." Lin Mingzhu cried loudly.Everyone swarmed around and watched Liu Shuangshuang struggle in the water but there was nothing he could do.

When Mai Duoduo was not paying attention, he asked Banxian to hand her a thick rope from the space, and tied one end to her waist.The other end was stuffed into Shen Zhijie's hand.

"Wait a minute and pull me up!" After speaking, the man had already jumped into the sea.

When Liang Zhijie reacted, Mai Duoduo jumped into the sea and quickly swam to the place where Liu Shuangshuang fell into the water.

The people on the boat stared wide-eyed at the figure floating in the sea: This girl is really brave.

Mai Duoduo quickly picked up Liu Shuangshuang who was slowly sinking, surfaced, and shouted to Shen Zhijie on the boat: "Tighten the rope in your hand..."

　Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and it is also the Old Man's Day. I wish my grandparents a long and healthy life!
