Pao-yue knew very well that she was on her way to his grandmother's, so speedily halting by the side of the pavilion, he waited for her to come up. The two cousins then left the garden together, and betook themselves to the front part of the mansion. Pao-ch'in was at the time in the inner apartments, combing her hair, washing her hands and face and changing her apparel.
Pao-ch'in, at this proposal, nodded her head, and while repressing a smile, she went off by herself to give way to thought. Pao-ch'ai then also gave out this riddle: Carved sandal and cut cedar rise layer upon layer. Have they been piled and fashioned by workmen of skill! In the mid-heavens it's true, both wind and rain fleet by; But can one hear the tingling of the Buddhists' bell?
From all I can now see, they're, really, a hundred times far more friendly than any others are!" But presently he also observed Lin Tai-yue rush after Pao-ch'in, and call out 'Sister, and, without even making any allusion to her name or any mention to her surname, treat her in every respect, just as if she were her own sister. This Pao-ch'in was young and warm-hearted.
Pao-yue then at length came to see why it was that such a warm friendship had sprung up between them. As the conversation again turned on Pao-ch'in, Tai-yue recalled to mind that she had no sister, and she could not help melting once more into tears. Pao-yue hastened to reason with her. "This is again bringing trouble upon yourself!" he argued.
Were it not for this venison, I would to-day have positively been quite unfit for any poetry." As she spoke, she discerned Pao-ch'in, standing and laughing opposite to her, in her duck-down garment. "You idiot," Hsiang-yuen laughingly cried, "come and have a mouthful to taste." "It's too filthy!" Pao-ch'in replied smiling. "You go and try it." Pao-ch'ai added with a laugh. "It's capital!
Tai-yue also smiled while suggesting: The broom, with which the bonze sweepeth the hill, is sunk in snow. Pao-ch'in too smilingly cried: The young lad takes away the lute interred in snow. Hsiang-yuen laughed to such a degree that she was bent in two; and she muttered a line with such rapidity that one and all inquired of her: "What are you, after all, saying?"
"If you just listen while I allot you your places, and sit down accordingly, it will be all right!" Continuing, she motioned to Mrs. Hsueeh and 'sister-in-law' Li to take the upper seats on the side of honour, and, making herself comfortable on the west, she bade the three cousins Pao-ch'in, Tai-yue and Hsian-yuen sit close to her on the left and on the right.
