Sima Ao felt at first that he was wronged by Jiang Bin, but when faced with Jiang Bin's fierce fists and kicks, Sima Ao also became angry. If there was a real fight, Jiang Bin would definitely not be able to defeat Sima Ao. As long as Sima Ao exerts just a little force, Jiang Bin will definitely fall.
Sima Ao knocked him down unceremoniously, and Jiang Bin pinned him to the ground.
"Since you don't like my sister, then why are you being nice to my sister and making her fall in love with you sincerely? Knowing that you don't marry her, she becomes depressed and depressed all day long."
Knowing that Jiang Min was ill, Sima Ao felt guilty and let go of Jiang Bin's hand.
After all the competition, Sima Ao still wanted to visit Jiang Min.
Sima Ao came to Jiang Mansion and saw Jiang Min lying in bed, and for some reason he felt guilty.
"Sister Min, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
"Brother Ao, why are you here?"
When Sima Ao asked Jiang Min, Min Jiang's maid came in with medicine. "My young lady is feeling unwell. The doctor said that my young lady was overly sad, which led to depression and illness."
"A'Gun, stop talking."
Jiang Min's maid is called Ah Gu. She doesn't talk much on weekdays, but talks eloquently when she does.
Sima Ao suddenly came to visit, and Jiang Min, who was lying in bed, burst into tears. However, when Sima Ao approached, she panicked and slept on her side, with her back to Sima Ao.
"Don't listen to Ah Gu, I just suffered from the cold." In order to stop Sima Ao from feeling guilty and blaming himself, Jiang Min coughed dryly.
Sima Ao was scolded by a maid, and apologized to Jiang Min in a low voice like a child who had made a mistake, with guilt and concern in his words.
"Sister Min, I'm sorry. It's my fault. I didn't think so carefully, and your reputation was damaged."
Jiang Minxin became even more sad when she heard that Sima Ao came to apologize because of his reputation!
"What did Brother Ao mean when he said that he didn't think so carefully? He didn't expect that breaking off the engagement would lead to damage to my reputation. Is that what you meant?" As he spoke, Jiang Min couldn't help but reveal his indignation.
"ah."
"Actually, Brother Ao must feel guilty for Min'er's reputation, because in Min'er's heart, Brother Ao's happiness is more important than Min'er's reputation. Since Brother Ao doesn't like Min'er, Min'er I won’t cling to Brother Ao to death.”
"Min'er, I'm sorry!"
Jiang Min's words made Sima Ao feel so guilty that he didn't know what to say except apologizing.
"Miss, the medicine is about to get cold!" the maidservant Ah Gu was moved by her young lady's sincerity of love and sobbed as a reminder.
"Brother Ao, Min'er needs to take medicine, please leave!" Jiang Min said energetically.
"Sister Min, why don't you let Brother Ao feed you?"
"No need. My cold is contagious." Jiang Minxiang seemed to be afraid that Sima Ao would see him sick, so he did not forget to cover his face with a handkerchief when he spoke.
"But I heard from your brother that you don't have cold."
Sima Ao didn't believe that Jiang Min was suffering from the cold. Just as he was about to step forward to check, Jiang Min shouted, "Min'er admits that she loves her brother Ao so much that she loses herself. Now Min'er just wants to find a little bit more." Dignity, why doesn’t Brother Ao even give Min’er any dignity?”
Sima Ao was stunned. He didn't expect that the words spoken by the usually gentle and submissive sister Min were like a knife stabbing people's hearts.
Seeing that Sima Ao hadn't left yet, Jiang Min said with a bit of stubbornness, "Brother Ao, if you don't go back, I won't take the medicine."
"Okay, brother Ao, let's go." Hearing that sister Min really wanted to drive away the guests, Sima Ao had no choice but to leave apologetically. When he left, he did not forget to say, "Sister Min, don't be too sad. Brother Ao will come to see you in two days."
After Sima Ao left, Jiang Min's tears of grievance flowed uncontrollably.
When the maid Ah Gu saw it, she asked confusedly: "Miss, you love Mr. Ao so much, why do you want to drive him away?"
"Because I don't want him to see my ugly face."
……………………
Sima Ao did what he said, and two days later, he came to see Jiang Min again.
This time, Sima Ao also brought many medicinal materials to treat colds and precious accessories.
Sima Ao came to visit Jiang Min this time. Jiang Min was still ill in bed, and happened to catch Jiang Min taking medicine. So Jiang Min didn't have time to cover her face with a scarf.
Although Jiang Min's complexion today is better than the previous two days, her face is still a little pale, her eyes are dull, and her body is almost reduced to a piece of paper.
Seeing Jiang Min with a haggard face, Sima Ao didn't feel disgusted but felt pity for him.
"Sister Min, have you felt better these past two days?"
"Feeling better."
Jiang Min was in a better mood than the previous two days, and she was gentler towards Sima Ao's excessiveness.
"Since Mr. Sima is here, this bowl of medicine will be done by Mr. Sima." After saying this, the maid Ah Gu gave the medicine in her hand to Sima Ao.
Sima Ao took the Ah Gu medicine bowl, sat on the edge of the bed, and fed Jiang Min the medicine ladle by ladle with skillful movements and gentle demeanor.
Sima Ao's sudden tenderness made Jiang Min a little overwhelmed and a look of shame appeared on her face.
After the maid Ah Gu gave the medicine to Sima Ao, she wisely left. When leaving, the maid Ah Gu made a cheering gesture to her young lady, which made Jiang Min even more shy.
Only Jiang Min and Sima Ao were left in the room, which seemed very quiet, so quiet that they could even hear each other's breathing.
After that, Sima Ao fell in love with Jiang Min and came to visit and take care of Jiang Min every day.
Jiang Min's condition is getting better day by day!
………………………
Sima Ao figured it out and decided not to persist in pursuing illusory love.
A month later, Sima Ao brought boxes of betrothal gifts to formally propose marriage to Jiang Min.
"Sister Min, it was my fault before and I betrayed your sincerity. Now that Brother Ao has formally proposed to you, are you still willing to be my wife?"
Although Sima Ao had failed Jiang Min before, it was Jiang Min's lifelong wish to marry Sima Ao.
Now that Sima Ao has officially proposed to him, Jiang Min is of course willing.
When Sima Ao asked if you would like to be my wife, Jiang Min was so moved that she was speechless.
The day Jiang Min got married was the grandest wedding in the history of Kyoto.
Eight thousand soldiers guarded the road, and the red-trousseau team was ten miles long. Boxes of dowries were folded and packed, and carts of dowry went to Sima Mansion in an orderly manner.
The rumbling sound of cannons and the sound of drums filled the entire city of Kyoto, and Sima's Mansion was like a sea of joy; so many guests came to bless them that they broke through the threshold.
After worshiping heaven and earth, worshiping in the high hall, and the husband and wife bowing to each other, they arrived at the bridal chamber.
The most important event in life is the wedding night. Sima Ao gently pushed the door open, and the bright red candlelight came into view. Jiang Min sat on the edge of the bed with her head covered.
Sima Ao walked quietly to the edge of the bed and carefully took off Jiang Min's phoenix crown and Xiapei.
The two of them drank a glass of wine in a reserved manner and returned to the edge of the bed.
Under the red candlelight, Jiang Min looked particularly bright and charming.
Sima Ao looked at Jiang Min dreamingly, and gently touched Jiang Min's pink cheeks with his hands. "We are getting married. Now I am your husband and you are your wife."
Jiang Min shyly promised, "In the future, Min'er will definitely be a good wife and serve her husband well."
Sima Ao pursed his lips and smiled in belief, took off Jiang Min's embroidered shoes, and the two fell asleep hugging each other.
The moment he and Sima Ao lay down on the bed and shared a pillow, a sweet spring suddenly surged in his heart, and there was a feeling that all the hardships were finally over. Jiang Min felt like he had been waiting for this day for three lifetimes.
