While they were bandying words， a servant-girl Ching Erh， lost sight of her fan and laughingly remarked to Pao-chai： It must be you， Miss Pao， who have put my fan away somewhere or other; dear mistress， do let me have it!

Youd better be mindful! rejoined Pao-chai， shaking her finger at her. With whom have I ever been up to jokes， that you come and suspect me? Have I hitherto laughed and smirked with you? Theres that whole lot of girls， go and ask them about it!

At this suggestion， Ching Erh made her escape.

the consciousness then burst upon Pao-yue， that he had again been inconsiderate in his speech， in the presence of so many persons， and he was overcome by a GREater sense of shame than when， a short while back， he had been speaking with Lin Tai-yue. Precipitately turning himself round， he went， therefore， and talked to the others as well.

the sight of Pao-yue poking fun at Pao-chai gratified Tai-yue immensely. She was just about to put in her word and also seize the opportunity of chaffing her， but as Ching Erh unawares asked for her fan and Pao-chai added a few more remarks， she at once changed her purpose. Cousin Pao-chai， she inquired， what two plays did you hear?

Pao-chai caught the expression of gratification in Tai-yues countenance， and concluded that she had for a certainty heard the raillery recently indulged in by Pao-yue and that it had fallen in with her own wishes; and hearing her also suddenly ask the question she did， she answered with a significant laugh： What I saw was： Li Kuei blows up Sung Chiang and subsequently again tenders his apologies
