Corrected version:

The Marquis got into the carriage while Puss ran ahead. When Puss met some farmers who were mowing a meadow, he asked them to say that the land belonged to the Marquis of Carabas. The poor farmers, hoping to get a reward, agreed.

Why I changed it (easy steps):

  • I capitalized "Marquis" because it is a title, like a name.
  • I used "When Puss met..." instead of "Meeting with..." so it is clear that Puss is the one who met the farmers.
  • I kept "who were mowing a meadow" without extra commas because it tells which farmers we mean.
  • I added "that" after "say" to make the sentence clearer: "to say that the land belonged..."
  • I put "hoping to get a reward" right after "the poor farmers" so we know the farmers hoped for a reward when they agreed.

If you want, I can make the sentences even shorter or turn them into a little story for reading aloud.
