After returning from De Jin's place for two days, I thought about her words. She was right. I would have to marry someone, but marrying the Ninth Prince was not what I wanted. Not only did I not love the Ninth Prince, but if history continued like this, it might harm Ah Ma. If I wanted to marry, I would find someone I could rely on.
Speaking of Ama, Kangxi and Ama had been out for a while. It was said that today was the day of their return. Ama would be angry when he came back and saw Sister Maner, so now he had to face the storm.
" Miss." Xiao Cui's voice came from outside the door.
"En, is Ma back?”I stood up and prepared to leave.
"Yes, Miss." Xiao Cui walked to my side and said respectfully.
Ama is back, I reckon that mother and brother should be explaining it there now! I turned to look at Xiao Cui and gestured for her to help me dress up. I also went out to welcome Ama.
Under Xiao Cui's dressing, I put on a very simple blue dress and a simple headdress. Then, I walked to the hall with Xiao Cui.
On the way, I saw the flowers in the courtyard bloom. It had been a long time since I came here. The fish in the pond were also active. I heard Ama's angry voice as soon as I reached the hall.
"You guys…You guys are really going to piss me off!" Ama said angrily.
I stood at the door for a while before I went in. My brother looked at me and winked at me. I knew he was hinting at me not to provoke Ama first because Ama was angry.
Mother stood at the side, somewhat at a loss. Mother was the type of girl from a humble family who followed the three obedience and four virtues of the ancients, so she stood at the side and did not speak much.
"Ama, what's wrong?" I still walked to Ama's side.
"Xi Min, it's good that you're here. Let me ask you, what's going on with your brother going to Maner?”Ama looked at me angrily.
I looked at my brother and mother. They shook their heads. They probably did it for my own good and didn't want me to say anything. They wanted me to pretend that I didn't know. But how could I do this? I had to muster my courage.
"Ama, I planned this. If you want to scold me, scold me!”I raised my head and looked at Ama with an expression that said,"I'll take responsibility for what I did."
My brother and mother probably didn't expect that they would be surprised. Mother ran over and pulled me to her side.
"Lingzhu, if you want to say something, then say it. I think Man-er is not bad, and I agreed to it.”Mother said uncomfortably.
"You guys…You guys are going to piss me off." Ama said as he patted his chest.
I know that Ama is really angry, but what can I do? I can't just watch my brother break up with Sister Man-er, and watch Sister Man-er marry that ugly monster.
" Ma, don't be angry. We were just afraid that you wouldn't agree, so..."
"You knew that I didn't agree, so you held it while I wasn't around?”Ama said angrily without waiting for me to finish.
"Ma, I don't know why you don't like Sister Man-er. Is it because Sister Man-er is a Han Chinese? The Emperor even said that he wanted to support the Manchu and Han families. How can you dislike the Han people so much?”I finally couldn't help but say what was in my heart.
Ama was blocked by my words. He went to sit down and thought about it. I saw Mother pat Mother's hand to tell her not to worry. I still have a trick up my sleeve. Then I looked at my brother and winked at him, indicating that he would bring Sister Maner here. He understood.
While Ama was thinking, he drank a cup of tea and seemed to have understood something. He sighed. At this time, his brother and Maner arrived.
"Ama, have you thought it through?" I looked at Ama carefully.
"Xi Min, you're right, but even if the emperor said it, how many people really did it? You don't understand." Ama sighed.
I understand, I said in my heart. Actually, I know that he has his hardships, but there's no right or wrong in love.
"Ma, don't worry, this marriage will be presided over by Fourth Brother and the others, nothing will happen.”I went to hug Ama.
"Fourth Brother? He…" "You little girl, you actually went to find Fourth Brother for help. Are you afraid that I'll beat you up when I come back?" That's why I found Fourth Brother to back me up."
"Haha, A-Ma understands me.”I hugged Ama and acted coquettishly.
Ama smiled. Mother also smiled when she saw that Ama had finally compromised. At this time, brother pulled Maner to kneel in front of Ama. I walked away and asked Xiao Cui to pour two cups of tea for them.
"Ama." Brother and Maner brought tea to Ama.
Ama looked at it and drank the tea.
"Since things have come to this, then that's it.”Ama looked at Sister Maner and said.
Although Ma said it reluctantly, I could see from his eyes that he also liked Sister Man-er. The matter was finally resolved perfectly.
Big brother and full son elder sister stood up and walked over to mother. Everyone was happy. Suddenly, Ama went to look at me.
"Min Min, you…It's not small anymore!" Ama said with a complicated expression.
"No, I'm still young." I was joking.
I felt that Ma Ma had something to say and asked about my age. Why did it give me a bad feeling? Mother's abnormality some time ago and De Jin's question the day before yesterday didn't feel like a coincidence.
"Minmin, do you know that the talent show is coming up soon?”Ama's words were like a blow to my head, giving me a deep blow.
"Ama, what are you talking about? I don't understand.”I'll pretend to the end.
Mother saw Ama asking and remembered. She walked over and looked at me with some worry in her eyes.
"Min Min, your Amma is saying that you've reached the age to enter the palace.”
I was stunned. What a joke. I was still young and didn't want to go. The palace wasn't a place I could stay in, but the way I looked at Mother and Ama didn't seem like I was joking.
"Mother, I'm still young." I giggled.
"Min Min, your mother isn't joking. You're not young anymore.”Ama said seriously.
I turned to look at my brother, hoping that he could save me. Brother looked at my pleading eyes and sighed.
"Minmin, you're really not young anymore." Brother looked at me sympathetically." Or, do you have someone you like?”
Brother's words made Ama stare at me. I didn't know what to say. Then who was it? If he didn't, then he had to enter the palace? Is there any other choice?
Ama and Mother looked at me as if they were waiting for me to speak and give my answer. I was silent, but silence couldn't solve the problem.
"Min Min, do you not want to enter the palace? Is it like Baochen said, you have someone you like?”Ama asked me.
"Ama, I have to get married now. Do I have to enter the palace if I don't like anyone?”I suggested.
Ama shook his head." Minmin, this is the rule. You…"
I know I have to make a choice, but if I don't want to enter the palace, I have to marry someone. Who should I marry? If he doesn't love me, I won't be happy if I marry him. I'm looking for Thirteen, but I'm good friends with him. I can't bear to hurt him.
Do I have to enter the palace? I fell into deep thought as I looked at Ama 'er Niang.
