Ji Bai drove the carriage quickly and slowly. When he returned to Duke Dingguo's mansion, he was already lighting the lamp, so naturally he could not catch up with Cui Qiyan.

As soon as he entered Chenglin Pavilion, Ji Bai saw Bai Ying in the courtyard and asked hurriedly, "Where is the Crown Prince?"

Bai Ying pointed out, "The prince has gone to the study."

"I'll go take a look." Ji Bai turned and walked towards the study.

Meng Dong was about to deliver tea to Cui Qiyan when Ji Bai recognized her from a distance and hurriedly chased after her.

"Is this a gift for the Crown Prince?"

Meng Dong turned around carefully while holding the tray, looked at him and suddenly smiled.

The two of them often choked each other when they met, but this was the first time that the two of them smiled when they met. Ji Bai was stunned for a moment.

While he was still indulging in this rare smile, Meng Dong handed the tray to him and said, "You are just in time, send this to the prince."

Ji Bai subconsciously took it. He didn't react until he got the thing. He lowered his head and said, "This is your errand. Why did you give it to me again? I know how to cheat and cheat..."

No wonder she smiled at him. It turned out that she had the idea of ​​letting him run errands. God knows just now he almost even thought about when they would get married.

Ji Bai's mood suddenly fell from the clouds to the bottom, and the words he blurted out were also somewhat displeased.

"Who is cheating? Nothing that comes out of your mouth sounds good."

According to Meng Dong's usual temper, he should get the things back instead of giving them away. However, she had just confessed to the prince about Afu today, and she was really worried that the prince would come back to the house and think of punishing her again when he saw her.

Originally, this matter belonged to Bitao, but she had other things to do temporarily, and Meng Dong happened to be there, so she handed the matter over to Meng Dong.

Meng Dong gritted his head

Pi took over the errand and was wondering what to do when Ji Bai appeared and she pushed the matter out of the way.

At this moment, she would rather endure Ji Bai's anger than face the prince.

Ji Bai knew that he was in the wrong, and he listened silently to whatever she said.

Both of them had their own thoughts, and no one said anything for a while.

"Um..." Meng Dong couldn't help but break the silence first, "Just think of me as asking you to help me deliver tea to the prince."

Ji Bai rarely hears Meng Dong say soft words to him, so he can't help but become nervous, "I'll deliver the things. Are you encountering any difficulties?"

Meng Dong also wanted to ask him something, "Did you meet the prince when you sent Afu back?"

"How do you know? The prince went to the Dong Mansion today." Ji Bai was surprised.

"Did the prince have a dispute with Afu?" Meng Dong was worried about Dong Jiafu.

Ji Bai recalled the scene in front of the Dong Mansion, "It's not like they had a dispute..."

Meng Dong was anxious when he heard this, "What do you mean it doesn't count? Please explain it clearly."

Ji Bai looked back and saw no one around, so he whispered mysteriously: "I'm just telling you, please don't tell anyone. I guess the prince is planning to steal the bride!"

"Stealing a bride, who's bride is being robbed?" Meng Dong was confused.

"Who else could it be? Of course it would be Miss Dong."

Meng Dong waved his hand, "Afu isn't engaged yet, so there's no point in trying to get married."

Now it was Ji Bai's turn to be confused, "What? Didn't Miss Dong get engaged to Mr. Feng? You were the one who said it in the first place..."

"The two of them were originally going to get engaged, but later they canceled it due to some things, and it was never settled at all. The prince went to find Afu after he found out about it."

"It turns out that the prince is not trying to steal the bride——" Ji

Bai suddenly realized, and then came to his senses, "You already knew that Miss Dong was not engaged to Mr. Feng, but you didn't tell anyone, so you didn't dare to give anything to the prince."

"You still said, it's all your fault. If you weren't so stubborn, I would have told the prince a long time ago." Meng Dong also got angry when he mentioned this.

Ji Bai was scolded inexplicably, "How come this is all my fault? What did I do?"

"It's hateful because you didn't do anything. Afu didn't let me take the initiative to tell others. If you could ask during that time, even if you just mentioned Afu's name, I would tell the truth."

"You have seen what the prince was like during those days. I dared not mention Miss Dong. I didn't even dare to say the word "Dong", which made the prince sad." Ji Bai was also wronged.

"Forget it, now that the prince knows it, there is no point in talking about it." Meng Dong felt confident, "You should give me the gift."

"Okay, I didn't say I wouldn't give it away." Ji Bai felt relieved knowing that she was fine.

Meng Dong turned around and left confidently.

Mrs. Wang prepared for two days and came to Dong's house personally with gifts.

During the day, everyone is busy with their own things, and Xu Yiwan is usually the only one at home.

Xu Yiwan was also surprised when she heard Mrs. Wang came to the door. She even didn't remember what Mrs. Wang looked like. But the visitor was a guest, so she still asked Mother Guo to invite the guest in.

"Coming uninvited, you didn't disturb Mrs. Dong, right?" Mrs. Wang said with a smile after entering the door.

"No, no, Mrs. Wang is here. I didn't greet her from afar, so I hope you'll forgive her." Xu Yiwan looked at Mrs. Wang, saying hello while searching for memories in her mind, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her.

Still Wang Fu

The person said: "I once met Mrs. Dong in the villa of Mrs. Tong'an Hou. There were many people that day, but I couldn't talk to Mrs. Dong. I'm afraid you won't remember me."

Xu Yiwan said sheepishly and truthfully: "I'm not very sociable, and I just arrived in the capital at that time. I really don't remember. I'm really sorry."

Her words were very sincere, which made Mrs. Wang feel good about her. She thought to herself: As expected, she did not choose the wrong person for Man Ting. The Dong family are all kind-hearted.

"Mrs. Dong is serious. It takes time to get to know people. No one gets to know everyone right away."

"What Mrs. Wang said is absolutely true." Xu Yiwan nodded.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two of them were speechless again.

As the host, Xu Yiwan felt that she couldn't ignore the guests, but she really didn't know what to say, so she couldn't directly ask her what she was here for.

Fortunately, Chun Cao brought tea at this time, Xu Yiwan raised her hand and said: "Mrs. Wang, please have some tea."

"Alas." Mrs. Wang responded with a smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put it down and said, "I saw your daughter at the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet that day, and she really looked good, just like you, Mrs. Dong. "

In fact, except for her eyes, Afu didn't look much like her, but Xu Yiwan was still happy after hearing this.

"Mrs. Wang is overly praised."

Mrs. Wang continued: "I also heard that Mrs. Dong has two sons. The eldest son is the number one scholar in Jinke. The children are so promising. I really envy others."

"It's all the children who strive for success, and I can't help." Xu Yiwan thought of Dong Jiabao and wondered where he was now. Has the journey been smooth?

The focus of Mrs. Wang's visit here is on Dong Jialin

on, saying that Dong Jiabao and Dong Jiafu are just pretenses.
