Chapter 129 Mrs. Anhou

The old lady Anhou couldn't keep the smile on her face anymore, she stood up in shame and annoyance, unable to speak in a murmur.The rest of the people just watched her jokes, and no one was willing to help her out—everyone knew that even the Queen Mother had a bad experience in her early years, so she developed a weird temper. The arrogant, cold and defiant Mrs. Anhou really had nothing to be sympathetic to.

An Yi watched with cold eyes the old lady Anhou being manipulated and humiliated by the empress dowager who was more powerful than her. Not only was she unable to fight back, she even had no ability to defend herself.This is her own grandmother, who ignored her kinship and only relied on her own preferences, leaving her indifferent for many years, letting her fend for herself, and even wishing to step on her a few times, her own grandmother was actually just an ordinary old man who bullied the weak and feared the hard, and was short-sighted Women only.

The Empress Dowager Lian suddenly glanced at Anyi, and asked indifferently, "Why, are you upset when I say you are an elder in your clan?"

These words successfully attracted all the wives' attention to An Yi, and Mrs. Anhou squinted her old eyes to look at An Yi carefully, but she really couldn't recognize who it was.

All the wives here, as long as their families are not down, have done their homework before coming. They know that even the queen mother has a young and beautiful doctor Xiao An. Witty, deeply loved by the Empress Dowager, even the name of Dr. An was bestowed by the emperor himself.Therefore, when he entered the door, he already had some guesses about Anyi. Now that Queen Mother Lian said that Mrs. Anhou was the elder of the Anyi clan, she became even more sure of Anyi's identity.

An old lady in her fifties pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Your Majesty won't tell us who this lovely little girl is." Well, if you want to talk about who is the most suitable for gagging and adjusting the atmosphere among the people present, she is the one.

Even the Empress Dowager refused to say anything, and wanted to call Mrs. Anhou: "Tell me who this is? Let me test whether you, an elder in the clan, are competent?"

Mrs. Anhou was inexplicably appointed to accompany the queen mother in the palace, and she felt a little ecstatic in her heart, hoping to seize the opportunity to flatter the queen mother so that she could find a future for her sons and grandchildren. turned over.Unexpectedly, she was repeatedly made things up for by the queen mother when they met, which really made her feel ashamed and embarrassed, but she couldn't ask Anyi whose daughter it was, so she could only say in shame: "My wife is ashamed, I have been married since my husband passed away." Staying out of the house, just eating fast and praying for blessings, and the old eyes are dim, and I can't recognize the younger generation."

"I really don't see it, you can also devote yourself to eating fast and praying to Buddha?" Even the Queen Mother looked at Anyi noncommittally, and Anyi smiled, and walked towards Mrs. Anhou step by step, bowed profusely, looked up at Mrs. Anhou and smiled Said: "The old lady probably can't remember me. We are the one at the foot of Yanchi Mountain. My father An Baoliang, a Jinshi in Tian'an for 35 years, is now the county magistrate of Changli. My grandmother often talks about you, saying that thanks to you, my father Only then can I read the book, I didn’t expect to see the old lady today.”

Mrs. Anhou did evil things and treated people badly back then. How could she think of little people like An Baoliang's mother and son? Then he said perfunctorily: "I have some impressions, how is your grandmother? Your family has gone to Changli? No wonder I said that you are unfamiliar? Why don't you come to our house to play when you come to the capital?"

An Yi lowered her eyes and said with a smile: "I haven't been back to Beijing for many years, and my relatives are all strangers, so I dare not go to the house to disturb you easily."

Mrs. Anhou saw her smiling gently and her posture was low, she couldn't help but feel complacent in her heart, secretly thought that no matter what, her eldest son will always be the patriarch of the An clan, and the Anhou mansion will always be the leader of the An clan. How dare a petty border town official disrespect himself?Even if a person has the favor of the Queen Mother, he still has to rely on the Hou Mansion as his foundation.So the old man smiled more and more kindly, he wanted to take advantage of An Yi's face in front of the Queen Mother, and he just pulled An Yi to be kind and caring, but if he didn't know, he just regarded them as his own grandparents and grandchildren.

An Yi also wanted to take this opportunity to make friends with Mrs. Anhou, and she had to use all her strengths to match her temperament and hobbies, and said every word from her heart, and soon won Mrs. Anhou's favor.One of the two had ulterior motives, the other wanted to cater to them, and they almost hit it off.When the wives left, Mrs. Anhou had kindly invited Anyi to play at Anhou's mansion after leaving the palace.Anyi reluctantly refused to agree, and vaguely passed it on.

Even the Empress Dowager drank down a bowl of thick and black concoction in disgust, her heart felt bitter along with her mouth, seeing An Yi standing beside her with a smile on her face, she seemed to be in a very happy mood, so she had to find fault with her: "I asked Whatever reward you want, you don’t want anything, just remember that when you were young, the threshold of Anhou’s mansion was too high, and Mrs. Anhou was too arrogant. Then I will grant your wish and order Mrs. Anhou to enter the palace to vent your anger for you. I was the one who did the wicked, so you should be a good person, and she invited you to her house as a guest, why did you refuse? I thought that returning home with a good clothes was a joy in life.”

"I didn't dare to go without my mother's permission. I'm just a little girl. The emperor's kindness is great. My father was an official to the county magistrate, and I was able to serve my mother. How can it be considered a homecoming? People look at it all because of my mother." Face, how did you know who I am?" Anyi smiled and handed over a bowl of clear soup exuding a faint fragrance: "Your Majesty, rinse your mouth with this, it can relieve the bitterness and ease the discomfort."

"I didn't know you were such a well-behaved person?" The Empress Dowager Lian took the fragrant soup and rinsed her mouth. After rinsing, she really felt that the smell was fresh, and the strong medicinal bitterness that had filled her mouth before could not help but feel good: "What is this? Why haven't you seen it?"

Anyi smiled and said: "A few days ago, I saw that my mother didn't like the bitterness of soups and medicines, so Minnv, Master Liaoran and old doctor Zhou worked out this Qingyi soup. It can not only freshen breath, relieve the smell of medicine, but also strengthen teeth Yan. It contains white poria cocos and refined turpentine."

The Empress Dowager Lian nodded: "You have a heart." After saying this, she yawned, An Yi knew the situation, and hurriedly got up to leave.Even the Empress Dowager didn't keep her. Seeing her walking out of the hall with uniform steps and elegant posture, she turned to Aunt Jiang and said, "Do you think she really has a grudge against Mrs. Anhou?"

Aunt Jiang knew what Empress Dowager Lian was worried about, and said with a smile, "Dr. Xiao An is calm and unrevealed even though he is young, but looking at Mrs. Anhou's behavior, I really don't recognize Doctor Xiao An."

The Empress Dowager Lian curled her lips and said, "Okay, don't you just want to tell me that An Yi is not on the same side as them? What kind of benefits do you get from her? Always speak well for her."

Aunt Jiang smiled and said, "The biggest benefit Dr. Xiao'an gave to the maid is the mother's health. The maid only hopes that the maid will live a long life."
