红楼梦Chapter31

Pao-yue saw the handkerchief she threw， and hastily snatching it， he wiped his tears. Then drawing nearer to her， he put out his hand and clasped her hand in his， and smilingly said to her： Youve completely lacerated my heart， and do you still cry? But let Ill come along with you and see our venerable grandmother.

Tai-yue thrust his hand aside. Who wants to go hand in hand with you? she cried. Here we grow older day after day， but were still so full of brazen-faced effrontery that we dont even know what right means?

But scarcely had she concluded before she heard a voice say aloud： theyre all right!

Pao-yue and Tai-yue were little prepared for this surprise， and they were startled out of their senses. Turning round to see who it was， they caught sight of lady Feng running in， laughing and shouting. Our old lady， she said， is over there， giving way to anger against heaven and earth. She would insist upon my coming to find out whether you were reconciled or not. Theres no need for me to go and see， I told her， they will before the expiry of three days， be friends again of their own accord. Our venerable ancestor， however， called me to account， and maintained that I was lazy; so here I come! But my words have in very deed turned out true. I dont see why you two should always be wrangling! For three days youre on good terms and for two on bad. You become more and more like children. And here you are now hand in hand blubbering! But why did you again yesterday become like black-eyed fighting cocks? Dont you yet come with me to see your grandmother and make an old lady like her set her mind at ease a bit?
