Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

As the sun set, he took Shen Muxue to check the goods.

The warehouse is well managed, with comprehensive fire and moisture prevention measures, and everything is in perfect order.

Han Chenghe might seem casual on a daily basis, but when it comes to his work, he's incredibly focused. As he closed the warehouse door, his eyes gleamed with excitement. "In ten days at most, this batch of the capital's most sought-after embroidered satin will be sold out. By then, we can just sit back and wait for the money to come our way."

As they discussed their sales strategy, Shen Muxue discovered that Han Chenghe had already taken care of every aspect of his business dealings, leaving her with little need for intervention. She simply waited for the harvest to come.

As night fell, Han Chenghe specially welcomed Shen Muxue and ordered the kitchen to prepare wild game dishes.

The brother and sister ate and chatted in a harmonious atmosphere, as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

Han Chenghe's unconventional personality made Shen Muxue feel particularly relaxed. Unconsciously, the mischievousness and sharpness beneath her gentle appearance gradually emerged.

Talking about the escape, Shen Muxue's words left Han Chenghe speechless: "I heard that Liu Yue is a famous talented woman in the capital, and is deeply favored by Master Xue. If the Liu family received the imperial decree granting the marriage, would they also think of escaping the marriage? But you ran away first, and they felt relieved."

Han Chenghe was so angry when he heard this that he immediately started to argue loudly, "How is that possible? She's talented, and I'm not bad either! I'm the second young master of the general's mansion. I'm of noble status and handsome appearance. I'm the Prince Charming in the hearts of countless girls in the capital."

Shen Muxue leisurely picked up a piece of braised lion's head. "But status is given by family, but talent must be cultivated through hard work. Besides, aristocratic children of your age either inherit the family business or pass the imperial examination to become successful and bring honor to their ancestors. You're idle like this every day. Don't outsiders think you're just a playboy? If I were Liu Yue, I'd probably be at a loss whether to laugh or cry."

Han Chenghe bit the chicken drumstick in his hand angrily and tried to defend himself: "I'm not doing nothing. I'm on a business path and will definitely make a name for myself in the future. You can't understand these lofty ambitions."

Shen Muxue couldn't help but chuckle. She didn't expect Han Chenghe to be so optimistic.

But if my second aunt heard it, she would probably keep nagging about it.

As a family of military generals, many of the Han family's men died on the battlefield. Among the younger generation, apart from the eldest cousin who was far away in the frontier, only Han Chenghe and a younger brother were left.

Now that the country is stable, no matter how high the status of a military general is, there will come a day when his glory will fade.

Having one pillar of the family is enough. As for the remaining two, the Han family naturally hopes that they can make achievements in their careers. However, it is obvious that Han Chenghe is not what they expected.

As they were talking, a loud bang suddenly sounded in the night sky, followed by countless fireworks blooming in the air, decorating the dark blue sky with extraordinary beauty.

Shen Muxue walked to the window and exclaimed: "Who is setting off fireworks? It's so beautiful."

Han Chenghe glanced at the direction where the fireworks were blooming, at the gorgeous scene on the mountainside, but said nothing. He just yawned in a sleepy manner, "What's there to see? I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed first."

After saying that, he hurried downstairs almost as if escaping.

However, Shen Muxue did not realize Han Chenghe's thoughts for a moment.

Resting my chin on my hand, I savored the scenery before me.

The next day, a servant brought an invitation.

Shen Muxue opened it and found that it was the name of the Liu family. She was surprised and said, "Strange, someone from the Liu family came to our village?"

"Yes, those gorgeous fireworks last night were made by my master."

The servant explained, "Our young master loves this kind of elegant occasion. Today, we are hosting a crab feast at the manor. We have invited many friends, some of whom have even come from as far away as the capital, despite the fatigue of the journey. We hope you will be able to honor us with your presence."

Shen Muxue accepted the invitation and said, "Go back and tell Young Master Liu that we will definitely be there."

Han Chenghe hid by the window and jumped out after everyone left: "Xue'er! Why did you agree? Go after him and tell him that someone in the family is sick and can't go."

Shen Muxue glanced at him and said, "Why, are you afraid of getting beaten?"

"How could that be!" Han Chenghe defended himself guiltily, "I was just worried that Liu Yue was there too. To tell you the truth, she has a crush on me."

This time, Shen Muxue was stunned.

"What's with that look in your eyes? Can't anyone like me?"

Han Chenghe straightened his back and said with some pride, "She has loved sticking to me since she was a child. She even threw sachets at me last year. If this isn't love, what else can it be? I don't want to go because I don't want to give her any hope."

Shen Muxue was skeptical about Han Chenghe's words, but seeing that he was so sure, she couldn't make a conclusion.

When it comes to feelings, who can say for sure?

Perhaps a talented woman like Liu Yue just likes men who don't play by the rules.

However, Han Chenghe simply avoiding the marriage wasn't an option. Shen Muxue thought for a moment and suggested, "Since you're not interested in her, why not take this opportunity to make things clear? The Emperor has granted the marriage, and you've run away. How embarrassing it will be for the Liu family. If both parties can reach an agreement and jointly petition the Emperor to annul the engagement, then you won't have to be tied together! You won't have to hide away, burdened by the charge of deceiving the Emperor."

Han Chenghe thought about it for a long time and finally nodded in agreement.

The banquet is scheduled for the afternoon.

When Shen Muxue and Han Chenghe were on their way to the banquet, they were blocked by a stunning beauty.

She was wearing a thin Hu costume, with her navel exposed in the cold wind, and holding a pipa in her arms.

Shen Muxue felt cold just looking at it.

But the woman didn't even bother to look at them. She raised her head and said arrogantly, "My young master is extremely talented. He once won a reputation for debating by standing alone against many opponents. He was named the chief talent of Dasheng by the emperor. His banquets are not open to everyone."

Han Chenghe had anticipated this. He crossed his arms, his legs shaking unconsciously, and looked cynical. "He invited us, and now he's trying to make things difficult for us. Do you think I can be manipulated by others?"

He shouted towards the manor, "I really don't want to attend such a sour scholar's gathering. Xue'er! Let's go!"

After that, he turned around and left.

The stunning dancer snorted disdainfully.

No intention to retain it.

Shen Muxue quickly grabbed Han Chenghe and lowered her voice, "Listen, the village is already bustling with activity. I'm sure the guests have all arrived. If you leave, word will spread tomorrow that the Han family's second young master went to the Liu family's banquet, but because he was hungry, he was despised and fled in disgrace."

Han Chenghe's face darkened.

Shen Muxue let him go and turned to the dancer: "Excuse me, how can we get in?"

The dancer glanced at Shen Muxue and said, "To make friends through literature, one must be quite skilled. Our master is not deliberately making things difficult for you. You two only need to recite a poem and you will be allowed to pass."

Fishing for fame and reputation!

Shen Muxue secretly labeled this chief talent in her heart.
