"Do you take my property and make it the means of distracting yourselves!" "Open the fan-box," shouted Pao-yue, "and choose one and take it away! What, are they such fine things!" "In that case," ventured She Yueeh, "fetch the fans and let her break as many as she can. Won't that be nice!" "Go and bring them at once!" Pao-yue laughed. "I won't be up to any such tomfoolery!" She Yueeh demurred.
"I can't manage," Ch'ing Wen rejoined smiling, "to get warm at all. It just also strikes me that the warming-pan hasn't yet been brought." "You've had the trouble to think of it!" She Yueeh observed. "But you've never wanted a chafing-dish before. It's so warm besides on that warming-frame of ours; not like the stove-couch in that room, which is so cold; so we can very well do without it to-day."
"Early this morning," She Yueeh smiled, "she shouted that she wasn't feeling quite herself. Neither did she have the whole day a proper bowl of food. And now, not to speak of her taking so little care of herself, she is still bent upon playing larks upon people! But if she falls ill by and bye, we'll let her suffer what she will have brought upon herself." "Is your head hot?" Pao-yue asked.
"Under the bed," continued Pao-yue, "is heaped up all that money, and isn't it enough yet for you to lose from?" "Had we all gone to play," She Yueeh added, "to whom would the charge of this apartment have been handed over?
WHEN king Wu overthrew the dynasty of Shang, the domain of its kings was divided into three portions, the northern portion being called Phei, the southern Yung, and the eastern Wei, the rulers of which last in course of time absorbed the other two. THE ZAH YUeEH. All the Chinese critics give this interpretation of the piece.
"Are there any evil spirits waiting for you outside?" Ch'ing Wen smiled. "It's sure to be bright moonlight out of doors," Pao-yue observed, "so go, while we continue our chat." So speaking, he coughed twice. She Yueeh opened the back-door, and raising the woollen portiere and looking out, she saw what a beautiful moonlight there really was.
She Yueeh quickly snatched a piece of silver. Then raising the steelyard, "Which is the one tael mark?" she asked. Pao-yue laughed. "It's amusing that you should appeal to me!" he said. "You really behave as if you had only just come!" She Yueeh also laughed, and was about to go and make inquiries of some one else, when Pao-yue interfered.
She Yueeh, on inspection, found indeed a hole burnt in it of the size of a finger. "This," she said, "must have been done by some spark from the hand-stove. It's of no consequence." Immediately she called a servant to her. "Take this out on the sly," she bade her, "and let an experienced weaver patch it. It will be all right then."
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?" "I've no money," She Yueeh replied.
Hearing this, Hsiao Hung was proceeding immediately towards the Tao Hsiang village, when she caught sight, just ahead of her, of Ch'ing Wen, Ch'i Hsia, Pi Hen, Ch'iu Wen, She Yueeh, Shih Shu, Ju Hua, Ying Erh and some other girls coming towards her in a group. The moment Ch'ing Wen saw Hsiao Hung, she called out to her. "Are you gone clean off your head?" she exclaimed.
