Chapter 147

Meng Liangjuan's lungs were about to explode, so he turned around and left without saying a word.

He didn't take a carriage today, but came here on horseback. He got on the horse and left the city immediately, and ran around the city wall twice along the official road before giving up.

It was still midsummer at this time, and after running for two laps, people and horses were sweating profusely.

Back at Duke Meng's mansion, Meng Liangjuan jumped off his horse, threw the reins to Xiao Yang who was coming up, and strode back.

Xiao Yang quickly tied up the horse and caught up with Meng Liangjuan from behind: "My lord, Miss Shen is here, and she is talking to the master in the front hall."

Meng Liangjuan stopped abruptly, Xiao Yang didn't expect the person in front to stop suddenly, and bumped into him unexpectedly.

The nose bumped into Meng Liangjuan's strong back, and he felt sore immediately, tears could not help but burst out of his eyes, but Xiao Yang forcefully forced him back.

"Really?" Meng Liangjuan, who had finally calmed down, was in a bad mood again.

"Really!" Xiao Yang nodded sharply, "It wasn't long after the eldest son went out, and Miss Shen came to visit with her maid."

"I'll go and have a look." Meng Liangjuan turned to the front hall and took a few steps, looked down at his soaked robes, and decided to go back to the yard where he lived and change into a clean brocade robe.

But just as he changed his clothes and went to the front hall, there were a few more uninvited guests in Meng Guogong's mansion.This is something.

Let's say that Xinmeng went out early in the morning, first went to the busiest business district in the capital, bought a few boxes of pastries at a pastry shop, and then went to Meng Guogong's mansion.

Duke Meng Guo received her in person.It can be seen that Meng Liangjuan did not lie to her, it was indeed Meng Guogong who wanted to find her.

Xinmeng offered the pastry with her own hands, and after being slightly surprised, Meng Guogong accepted her heart with a big smile.

"Miss Shen is really exquisite. She actually knows that my husband likes to eat walnut cakes from Mo's dim sum shop, and my wife likes to eat their pineapple cakes." Contrary to his son Meng Liangjuan, Meng Guogong had a very good first impression of Xinmeng.

"Xinmeng heard about it by accident. I was a little uneasy at first, worried that the etiquette is too thin... Now I feel relieved after hearing what my father-in-law said." Xinmeng said with a light smile.

Meng Guogong and his wife like the walnut cakes and pineapple cakes from Mo's dim sum shop. She learned about it when she followed the seventh prince Xiao Yi to visit Meng Guogong's mansion in the previous life.

This time, she did what she liked and won the favor of Meng Guogong, so she must not be embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Meng Guogong didn't intend to embarrass Xinmeng, but planned to be a matchmaker for her.

Things start from the day before yesterday.

That day, Duke Meng Guo went to the palace to meet Concubine Meng Gui.While the siblings were chatting freely, Concubine Meng suddenly let out a long sigh.

Meng Guogong was puzzled, and quickly asked his sister why she was frowning, and whether she was worried?
Concubine Meng then roughly talked about how the Seventh Prince Xiao Yi fell in love with Shen Ji's eldest daughter Xinmeng, and his pursuit failed.

Meng Guogong loves his younger sister the most. After hearing this, he immediately slapped his chest and promised to come forward in person to matchmaking with Xinmeng, the first daughter of the Shen family.

Only then did Concubine Meng feel more at ease, she insisted on keeping her eldest brother for dinner before letting him return home.

Meng Guogong was impatient, so he asked his son Meng Liangjuan to invite Xinmeng to the mansion the next day, but he was delayed by Mrs. Shen.

Today, Xinmeng took the initiative to visit the mansion and brought his favorite pastries, which made him feel that such a harmonious atmosphere would definitely greatly increase the success rate of today's matchmaking.

After chatting for a while, he cleared his throat and planned to get to the point.

A voice suddenly came from outside the hall: "The Eighth Prince is here, and Miss Lin Zhidai from the Duke Lin's Mansion is here."
