Chapter 399: Meng Family in the capital

In the Capital, Meng Family Mansion.

“Go and ask the concierge if there is any letter for me.” Meng Nan, who just came in from the outside, ordered Jin Shiwei.

Jin Shiwei replied with a bitter tone: “Gongzi, I’ve already asked them thrice today.  If you have a letter, they will naturally send it to the house.”

Meng Nan found out that the sun outside the window had turned red. Unknowingly, another day was about to pass.

It takes only seven days to send a letter from Qingyuan Town to the capital. Seven days had passed, but there was no trace of a letter.

“Chen Tairen didn’t reply?” Meng Nan asked with a frown.

Jin Shiwei shook his head: “No, Boss Chen must be very busy.”

Meng Nan slammed the book directly on the table: “How busy can he be? No matter how busy he is, can’t he spare time to reply to me?”

Jin Shiwei just shrugged his shoulder and didn’t say a thing. Since they returned to the capital, Meng Nan has become irritable day by day. He either in a daze or in a rage all day long. It’s very hard to be a bodyguard ah!

At this time, a maidservant came in: “Gongzi, Furen ask you to go to the Fushou Residence to have a talk.”

Meng Nan frowned and asked, “Did she say what is it about?”

The maidservant shook her head: “I don’t know.”

Meng Nan sighed, got up and changed his clothes, then followed behind the maidservant to Fushou Residence.

Fushou was the residence Meng Nan’s mother lived.

At this time in the Fushou Residence, Meng Nan’s mother, Xu Furen, and another rich lady was chatting and laughing, while having tea.

“Furen, gongzi is here.” When the maidservant guarding the door saw Meng Nan, entering the yard, she rushed inside to report.

Xu Furen nodded her head and looked at Zheng Furen: “My son, he has been away in the capital for a long time, so these days, he’s still can’t adapt in the lifestyle here. He forgot to come over.”

Zheng Furen put down the teacup in her hand and smiled lightly: “Sister, do we still need to say such polite words? Who cares if he still can’t adapt? It doesn’t matter as long as the children can do good deeds.”

Xu Furen smile even more: “That is true, we, parents only want our children to do good things.”

While talking, Meng Nan entered the hall. He saw the guests in the hall and so he hurriedly paid respect: “Aunt Zheng!”

Zheng Furen looked at Meng Nan. The smile in her eyebrows couldn’t be hidden: “I didn’t see him only for a few years, Nan’er become more handsome than before!”

Xu Furen covered the big smile on her lips and said: “Sister, you’re making me laugh. He’s still the same as before, he didn’t change much!”

Zheng Furen replied: “Speaking about it, my Xue’er hasn’t changed at all. She’s still the same as before. She can’t leave her brother Nan. I came here today in secrecy. If I let her know, she will naturally come with me.”

Xu Furen said with a smile: “Sister if that is the case, bring Xue’er with you if she wanted to come.”

Zheng Furen waved her hand: “How could that be, if people learn of that, they might gossip about it.”

Even if Meng Nan is a fool, he will understand what his mother trying to do.

The Meng family and the Zheng family have long been in a good relationship, and they were also quite powerful in the capital. Although the Zheng  Family was currently inferior to the Meng family, their momentum has been stable all these years. His father and mother have the intention of letting him marry the daughter of Zheng Family two years ago.

Now that he returned to the capital, Zheng Furen came to their door personally. It seems that they were now being anxious, their daughter turned 15 two years ago, and now she’s 17.
