As soon as Hsueeh P'an saw how distinguee Ying Lien was in her appearance, he formed the resolution of buying her; and when he encountered Feng Yuean, come with the object of depriving him of her, he in the assurance of superiority, called his sturdy menials together, who set upon Feng Yuean and beat him to death.
Besides, to-day it's chilly, and as you've had a bath only a little while back, you can very well just now dispense with one. But I'll draw a basin of water for you to wash your face, and to shampoo your head with. Not long ago, Yuean Yang sent you a few fruits; they were put in that crystal bowl, so you'd better tell them to bring them to you to taste."
"Lo, that girl Yuean," laughed Hu Po, "wishes to smear her, and that hussey P'ing still spares her! Look here, she has scarcely had two crabs, and she has drunk a whole saucerful of vinegar!" P'ing Erh was holding a crab full of yellow meat, which she was in the act of cleaning.
It's true that you're attached to our old mistress' rooms, and that he can't, just at present, presume to do the least thing to you; but can it be, forsooth, that you'll be with the old dame for your whole lifetime? You'll also have to leave to get married, and if you then fall into his hands, it won't go well with you." Yuean Yang smiled ironically.
And as about this time Ch'ing Wen, I Hsia, Ch'in Wen, Pi Hen had all, in their desire of getting some excitement, started in search of Yuean Yang, Hu Po and their companions, to have a romp with them, and he espied She Yueeh alone in the outer room, having a game of dominoes by lamp-light, Pao-yue inquired full of smiles: "How is it you don't go with them?"

And of all the servants at home, will any you may wish to employ not deign to move to execute your orders? If now that you have a chance of becoming a mistress, you don't choose to, why, you'll miss the opportunity, and then you may repent it, but it will be too late!" Yuean Yang still kept her head bent against her chest and spake not a syllable by way of reply.

As soon as they caught sight of her, Yuan Yang and her companions stood up.

"Since you don't like to entertain his offer," P'ing Erh suggested, "I'll put you up to a plan." "What plan is it?" Yuean Yang inquired. "Just simply tell our old mistress," P'ing Erh laughed, "this answer: that you've already been promised to our master Secundus, Mr. Lien.
