Ayn picked out two posts. One is the head of the six-grade ministry, and the other is the seven-grade Dali Temple critic, these two, one of the official positions is the highest grade among the people who take the initiative to hand over the post to make friends at the moment, and the other is a series of Dali Temple that has a deep relationship with the Tian family, all of which must go.

"There is a saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and the face of neighbors should be given. People are kind enough to invite, and if we don't go, we will be suspicious. But you can't go to all of them, otherwise you will be annoyed to death in the future. An Yi put the two posts aside, and asked Mrs. An again: "Which one does grandmother think is good?" You just have to pick what you think is good and like, and you can come and go more often in the future. Unlike her purposeful interaction with people, Mrs. An lives here for a long time, and needs one or two neighbors who look at each other as companions, and whether the official position is rich or not is secondary, the key is to like each other.

Mrs. An picked out two more that she liked according to her words, and ordered someone to go and reply.

After the matter was decided, the grandparents and grandchildren talked about the events of these days one by one, and Mrs. An praised Xie Mantang in three sentences: "What a good person, I thought that although a person like him was kind on the face, most of them looked down on us in their hearts." I didn't expect you to be at home these days, but he was a three-day envoy who came to ask, but whenever he heard that something was done, he immediately did it quietly, which saved me a lot of heart and strength. Especially around the beginning of spring, I was sick, and I couldn't get someone to send you a letter, thanks to the steward named Liang Feng in the Guogong Mansion who ran back and forth to ask for a doctor for me, and gave me the good medicine in their mansion to eat, you can see me again. A few days ago, your uncle and grandfather celebrated his birthday, and he actually asked people to prepare a gift, which is really thoughtful. ”

An Yi is not too surprised, Xie is like this, a typical person who wants to eat other people's meat must first feed them fat, not for anything else, just to eat sweet and not stubborn. He just wanted to fatten her up, and since he promised her to take care of Mrs. An for her, he would definitely do what he said. Well, the effect of this trick played by Xie is still good, no matter what his intentions are, she has always benefited, and when she uses it for him, she is quite willing.

After Mrs. An finished speaking, Xie Mantang talked about Anhou Mansion again: "After the year, there was a steward in Anhou Mansion, who looked arrogant and annoying, saying that he invited me to their mansion for a banquet, and asked when you would come back, I didn't go and didn't care, and he threw a few unpleasant words. I don't know why I suddenly remembered us? ”

An Yi smiled and said slowly about seeing Mrs. Anhou Wen during the New Year, Mrs. An clapped her hands proudly and resentfully, and said disdainfully: "I'll just say it!" That old pious woman's family has eyes on the top of their heads, how could they suddenly think of us! It turns out that this is the case, the Queen Mother is really a good person, she deserves to be scolded! I didn't feel like it was enjoyable: "Why don't you find her fault, how many times she slaps her, and how many boards she hits?" That's what you call out of anger! ”

An Yi smiled: "How can it be so good? Although the Anhou Mansion was defeated, since the Holy Lord had never won the title, it was to recognize the merits of An Lao Shoufu back then, and it was also necessary to guard against the meaning of public opinion. The Queen Mother summoned the widow of the old minister into the palace for no reason, and did all the insulting things for no reason, which is not good. The imperial historians are worried that they have nothing to do. ”

Mrs. An pursed her lips in deep amusement, and looked at An Yi with bright eyes: "So, you are now a celebrity next to the Queen Mother, doesn't she want to invite us to be guests?" Let's go! ”

"Grandmother, it's not time yet. I have always kept in mind the things I promised you, but I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, the Queen Mother's love is like dewdrops, who can tell when it will be gone? Daddy's official position is low, and he can't protect us. We're not in a hurry, okay? An Yi knew what the old lady was planning, but she thought that she could take the opportunity to go to Anhou Mansion to show off her power and show off her anger before. But what is it? She has to be looked down upon by the Queen Mother, praised by the emperor, and has some fame, but compared with these meritorious families that have been run for generations, her strength is pitifully small, and she is sent to the door to be humiliated and ridiculed if she doesn't know the severity, and she is even more self-defeating if she doesn't talk about strategy.

Mrs. An was just carried away by this sudden favor, and after listening to An Yi's detailed words, she understood, and remembered again: "Liu Xiucai brought his daughter-in-law here, saying that when you come back, let people go to his house to say something." ”

An Yi couldn't help laughing and said: "People are now the head of the Ministry of Engineering of Liupin, and they have to be valued by Master Cai, and the future is limitless. We are not familiar with the people in this capital, so we need him to take care of them, so you can live in peace. ”

Mrs. An rolled her eyes and said, "No matter how big an official he is, he still relies on the poor Xiucai who eats cheekily in our family and uses our family's firewood and rice money." If your father hadn't tightened his belt to help him, he would have starved to death, not to mention that he had the cheekiness to borrow the only little silver left in our family when he entered Beijing! Although I annoyed him for being shameless, I never kicked him out, did I? If he dares to disrespect me, I will spread the word that he is ungrateful! Look how he has a face! Who would dare to associate with him? ”

An Yi knew that this old lady was used to speaking hard, and she was actually better at reading the direction of the wind than anyone else, so she didn't take her words seriously, so she just sent someone to send a letter to the Liu family, politely said that she had come back from the palace, and asked when Mrs. Liu, who had only entered the door for more than a year, was free, and she would go to visit. The news came back quickly, and Liu Yourun immediately said that he would bring his daughter-in-law and doll to visit Mrs. An after signing tomorrow.

Mrs. An didn't take it seriously on the surface, but when she turned around, she turned around An Yi and instructed the housekeeper under her back to prepare dinner for reception, and be sure to greet the guests well and not be lazy. Seeing this, An Yi felt a little more steady, in terms of the world, Mrs. An is not bad, and it is not bad to have such an old lady to take care of these trivial matters for her.

The next day, Liu Yourun really took his little daughter-in-law Tang, who had just entered the door for more than a year, holding the fat doll that had only been born for a long time, and happily came to the door with a four-color carefully prepared gift. An Yi put on a set of golden longevity locks produced by Ziwei Lou to the fat doll, gave Tang a box of self-made pills for health and beauty, and soon got closer to Tang, and exchanged some things with Liu Yourun on the court, which was a pleasure for the guests and hosts.

Then An Yi walked a few neighbors one by one in a low-key and humble manner, and accompanied Mrs. An to visit her former relatives, and then went to two small villages in the suburbs of Beijing to take a look. But what made her strange was that Xie Mantang never appeared, and the noblewomen she met in the palace did not send posts to invite her to be guests, and Anhou Mansion also did not send people to the door again.

It seems that her reputation is not loud enough, and in the eyes of these people is not big enough. An Yi is not in a hurry, when she makes a few more trips to the Queen Mother's palace, these people will come.
