Chapter 182 Extra 6
Autumn is here and the weather is getting cooler.
My uncle's wedding is approaching.
After taking so much time to observe, my grandparents were very satisfied with the girl that my uncle brought back.
It’s nothing for me, I just hope my uncle can be happy.
I don't have a very deep impression of this uncle. After all, he didn't spend a long time with me. But he spent a lot of time with my brother. But my brother is not with us now, and I don't know when he will come back.
How nice it would be if he could come back earlier to attend his uncle's wedding banquet?
When my uncle got married, almost everyone in the village came to help.
My mother-in-law and Aunt Mingyue also came, but Aunt Mingyue was grinning foolishly the whole time.
My uncle just found out what had happened in the family in the past two years, but he didn’t have time to think too much about it. After all, his own affairs were more important.
That sister Su lived in our house the day before her wedding.
Then this uncle came to our house to pick up the bride.
It was a very lively day at my grandparents’ house, and I was very happy, but I still missed my brother a little.
After the wedding, I sat at the table and had something to eat.
I was thinking that the bride hadn't eaten yet, so I said to my mother, "Mother, should we send something to my aunt to eat, otherwise she will be hungry."
Your grandparents will take care of this matter, so we don't have to worry.
The next day after my uncle got married, he told my grandparents that he wanted to take his wife north to the prosperous capital.
Grandpa was a little angry.
"You are such a filial son. You have only been at home for a few days, why are you leaving so soon? Didn't you fail the exam? You haven't studied hard for so many years, otherwise you wouldn't have achieved anything."
My uncle said, "Father, I also want to study hard, but things don't always go as planned. What can I do? You can't force your ideas on me. Besides, how do you know what I'm going to do in the capital? I'm going to take the exam. As long as I pass, I can stay in the capital. If I can gain a firm foothold in the capital, I can take you all there and let you enjoy the wealth and glory and how good it is to live in that prosperous area."
My grandmother said, "We have never traveled far in our lives, so how could we possibly go to such a prosperous place? If you really want to, come back and see us often. If you really want to take the exam, your father and I will hurry up and find a job for you. You two should leave quickly, otherwise you will miss the exam and have to wait for a long time again."
My grandma said that she still owed a lot to her son.
So my grandma tried her best to agree to my uncle's requests.
After his uncle and aunt stayed at home for two days, Qi Chen hired a carriage and went to the capital.
Not long after they left, my father and mother packed their bags and planned to take me with them. They were really worried about my brother, so they planned to take me to find him and see how he was doing. If he was doing well, they would bring me back. If my brother was not doing well, they would definitely bring him back with them. After all, to them, my brother had always been their son, and I had always been thinking about him.
Another day passed.
We also hired a carriage to go to the capital, and along the way I listened to my mother talking about my uncle.
My uncle and my aunt A Yue originally liked each other, but because my aunt had a bad horoscope and my grandparents did not agree, they missed the opportunity.
I heard from some grandmothers in the village that their story caused quite a stir in the village back then.
This created a rift between the two families.
Aunt A Yue almost went crazy.
Our family has always owed a lot to this aunt, but my mother has helped them over the years.
All the resentment from so many years has vanished.
The day before we left Gujia Village, my mother went to see Aunt A Yue.
Ah Yue advised her, "Don't worry, your father and mother will come home often to help take care of you. You have gone to such a far place, you must come back as soon as possible. If you can't bring your son back, then it must be God's will. Maybe it would be better for him to stay with his biological father. After all, how can such a royal relative endure a hard life? The same goes for children. How can parents bear to see their children suffer?"
"You don't understand. I raised my son with my own hands. I know his temperament. If he really couldn't get used to this kind of life, he might have forgotten us during the time he lived with his biological father and wouldn't have begged his biological father to let him come back again and again. His biological father finally couldn't persuade him and sent him back to stay with us for a few years. After all, he is his biological father. What father doesn't miss his son? This time, his father really put aside his pride and sent someone to take him back."
"So the three of you are planning to go to the capital to look for your son. Don't forget that the Queen Mother you told me about before has repeatedly said that you, as the foster mother, can never be the mother of the young master. Have you thought about it? The young master has grown up now, he is a teenager, he should accept better things instead of staying in that small mountain village for the rest of his life. If you go to see him this time, if he wants to come back with you again, then everything his biological father has done will be in vain."
After listening to her for a year, my mother decided to follow her heart and go see my brother. If my brother was really doing well, he would bring me back and my brother Jialiang would follow him back. After all, my aunt once said that as parents, we of course hope that our children can have a better life. My brother can only live a better life if he stays with his biological father. After all, he is his biological father, and a biological father will never harm his own son.
As for this aunt, my mother sometimes still listens to her.
If my grandparents had not objected, this aunt would not have married Uncle Da Nian, but would have married my uncle and become my aunt.
But Uncle Da Nian and his family are also good people. If it weren’t for Uncle Da Nian’s taking her in, Aunt A Yue would probably have died long ago.
In fact, everything is destined. Maybe the relationship between our family and my aunt's family is too shallow, so we can't become a real family. But even so, my mother and my aunt are still good friends, just like me and sister Yaoyao.
My mother said something to me, and I still remember it to this day. It was when I was 5 years old.
When I first met Sister Yaoyao, my mother said to me: "Xiao Le, you must remember that you and Sister Yaoyao should get along like real sisters, just like me and this aunt."
I nodded at the time, not understanding the meaning, but I knew that A Niang was doing it for my own good, so I agreed.
I have gotten along very well with Sister Yaoyao over the years, but we don’t see each other very often.
After all, we live in Gujia Village and Sister Yaoyao's home is quite some distance away from us.
We went to the capital.
It took more than ten days of journey to arrive.
We rested in an inn in the capital.
Dad said, "We have been on this long journey for such a long time, we should rest for two days. After we have rested well, we will go to see the prince. If the prince does not want to see us, we can stay here for a few more days, take our daughter to see the world, and then go back."
My father actually had already made plans in his mind. He knew that my brother's biological father must have a rift with him. If he didn't want to see him, then the three of us would have to stay here for a few days and then go back.
Two days later, my father and mother brought me to the gate of the palace.
I thought that my brother's home was behind this door. As long as the door was opened and we walked in, I would be able to see my brother whom I had been missing so much.
Dad knocked on the door for a long time before the gate of the palace was opened.
A grandfather came out and looked down on my father after seeing him.
"So it's you guys. Are you here to see the prince? The prince isn't here right now, and neither is the prince. Please go back, and don't come here again."
My father understood and picked me up and was ready to leave, but my mother was reluctant to let me go because she knew that my grandfather was lying.
My mother knew that the day my brother was taken away, she would never see him again.
Just as everyone was about to leave, a carriage slowly stopped at the gate of the palace.
A young man got off the car, and it was my brother whom I had been thinking about all the time.
My brother was also very happy when he saw our family of three. When he was about to welcome us into the house, the grandfather refused again.
"My Lord, the prince is not in the palace, you can't welcome irrelevant people in. If the prince comes back, he will be angry. On the day you came back, the prince said that irrelevant people are not allowed to meet you. Have you forgotten?"
It turned out that my brother’s biological father had already told my brother that he was not allowed to meet us again. No wonder my brother never wrote any letters after that letter, and I never received any letters.
The instigator of everything was my brother's biological father.
It seems that Aunt A Yue is right. There are differences between us and my brother after all.
But my brother insisted on letting us in, and the grandfather had no choice.
We have arrived at the palace. This is my first time entering a palace.
I was curious about everything, so I quickly ordered my servants to bring me some delicious food.
Sometimes I feel quite dazed. In fact, my brother lives a life of luxury and there is no need for him to go back with us to suffer. After all, not everyone can become a royal relative.
If I am my brother's biological sister, then wouldn't I be a princess? But I am not, my parents are just ordinary people.
Just when we were all very happy, the prince came back.
My father and mother have to kneel down and pay their respects to the prince. According to etiquette, I should also kneel down.
So just when I was about to kneel down, my brother helped me up.
"Little sister, you don't have to kneel to him. There's no need for so many etiquettes."
The prince asked with a dark face: "What are you doing here? Are you here to pick someone up?"
My mother answered.
"In reply to your Highness, we are not here to pick up the child. We are only here to see him. If the child is doing well, we will go back. We will not stay here for long and will not disturb the lives of you and your son."
But the prince's merciless words made us feel very embarrassed.
"You have to remember that he is my biological son. You only raised him for a few years. You have no blood relationship with him at all. You have to recognize this fact."
The prince's words were like a bolt from the blue.
He just wanted my parents to face reality, but my brother refused to listen.
My brother knelt down in front of my parents and said with tears in his eyes, "Dad and Mom, I don't want to stay here. This place makes me feel very bad. I would rather give up the title of prince and live the life of an ordinary person. Please talk to him and let me go. I really don't want to stay here. Life here makes me very unhappy. If this continues, I will get sick."
"What are you talking about? You are my biological son, not theirs. You need to understand this clearly. Everything you are enjoying now is what I can give you. If you go back with them, you will get nothing."
The prince's words hit my brother's heart like a bolt from the blue, but my brother seemed very determined.
My brother doesn't want such wealth and glory, he just wants to live with them.
But my brother’s biological father wouldn’t agree, right?
As expected, when my brother’s biological father, the so-called prince, heard these words, he slapped my brother in anger.
My brother stumbled and fell to the ground. My mother walked forward with concern and hugged him in her arms.
I was also very angry. Why did they hit people?
I quickly blocked the way and stared at the prince fiercely.
I glared at him and said, "Uncle, it's wrong for you to hit someone like this. Even if you are my brother's biological father, is there anything you can't talk about politely? You are biological father and son. I know you love my brother and don't want him to live a hard life with us, but have you ever thought about it? If your son is not happy, he won't be grateful to you even if you tie him up by your side for the rest of his life. Instead of doing this, you might as well let him choose the life he wants. This will also be good for you."
The prince looked at what the little girl said and felt that it made sense. However, as a high and mighty prince, although he had no real power, he was still a royal relative and could not let his own child lead him by the nose.
"My dear son, since they are here, I will give you a choice. If you are willing to go with them, then we will sever our father-son relationship. This is a serious choice. You must choose carefully. If you make the wrong choice, there will be no chance for you to regret it."
Everyone is looking forward to the brother's answer, hoping that his answer can satisfy everyone, but things don't always go as everyone wishes, and one party will always be disappointed.
