hi,I think the word "捣糨糊" is dialect. means:to fool; to deceive; to hype; to palm sth. off on ;to throw someone off the scent.

捣糨糊，是上海方言啦。大概就是指，不是很诚恳地和别人交流，答非所问，反正就是不正面回答（有点像明星回答记者）。办事的时候，就推来推去，找很多借口，就是不好好解决问题，多数情况还笑嘻嘻得，感觉拿他没办法。 英语如何表达我也不知道吧，大概也是属于俚语之类的可能。

Hello Smiler, You could say "messing around".
