Chapter 2120 Meng Yunzheng Thanked Guests Behind Closed Doors

As the sky got darker and darker, the carriage finally arrived at the small courtyard in the south of the city.

The closer we got to the small courtyard, the busier the roadside became. We were about to reach the door of our house, but who knew that a carriage had already parked outside the gate.

It was difficult for Shu Yu to pass the carriage for a while, so he had to get off first.

Ying Xi was the first to knock on the door, but just as she raised her hand, a man suddenly came out from the side, frowned and stood in front of her and said, "Wait, what are you doing? Don't you know first come, first served?"

First come, first served?

Ying Xi looked confused, "Who are you?"

"You don't care who I am, we were here first. If we want to see Mr. Meng, we are also here first."

Ying Xi looked confused and looked at the other person's clothes. He seemed to be a servant from a wealthy family. So the carriage parked at the door should belong to him, right? It looks quite gorgeous, and it must have some status.

Ying Xi didn't understand the situation and wondered if the other party would have trouble with Mr. Meng. From what he just said, it didn't seem like he was here to cause trouble.

Now that Mr. Meng is Jieyuan, it is possible that their master has some relationship with him.

Therefore, Ying Xi remained silent. Since he came first, he should be given the opportunity to knock on the door.

Seeing this, the other party was slightly satisfied and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Cheyenne's voice soon came from the door, "Who is it?"

The young man who had just looked at Ying Xi with a cold eyebrow immediately smiled and said, "The young one is a servant of Yibo Mansion. Our uncle and Mr. Meng are also old acquaintances. Today, the master is hosting a banquet in the mansion and invites Mr. Meng to come over. Let’s talk about old times at home.”

There was a pause inside, and Ying Xi thought that Xia Yan would come and open the door. Unexpectedly, the door did not move at all, but Xia Yan's voice sounded again, "In a few days, it will be the day when the general examination will start. Our young master really can't tell his mind. This I have to study at home for a few days and thank guests behind closed doors. I also asked this young man to tell my uncle on my behalf that I will not attend the banquet and wait until the spring is over before I can visit again."

The boy looked a little embarrassed, but what Xia Yan said was right. Before leaving, his uncle had told him to treat each other with courtesy and not to force it.

There will be a trial in a few days. The other party has said so. If he persists, it will not be a good relationship, but an enemy.

The young man could only respond with a dry smile, "I will tell my uncle that I wish Mr. Meng to be named on the gold list."

"Thank you."

The two sides just finished talking through the door.

Although the boy's expression was not very good, he could only turn around and prepare to leave.

However, when he walked down the steps, he found Ying Xi still standing there. He even raised his hand and started knocking on the door.

He immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Didn't you hear what was said? Mr. Meng thanked the guests behind closed doors."

Ying Xi nodded, "I know, but we are not guests."

"What are you if you're not guests?"

"we are……"

Before Ying Xi finished speaking, Shu Yu led Xiao Huohuo over and was a little surprised to see her still standing at the door, "Ying Xi, what's going on? Is there no one at home?"

The boy turned his head when he heard the voice, and his expression changed slightly when he saw Shu Yu.

Ying Xi immediately replied, "Yes, there is someone." She raised her hand again and knocked again.

Cheyenne's voice came from inside again, "Is there anything else?"

Although his tone was polite, it was obvious that his voice was colder.

Ying Xi raised his voice and said, "Cheyenne, it's me. We've arrived in the capital. Open the door quickly."

The boy stared at her, "You..."

Just as there was a sound, the courtyard door that had been closed just now was suddenly opened, revealing Cheyenne's surprised face.
