the eminent Hsi Jen, with winsome ways, rails at Pao-yue, with a view to exhortation. The beauteous Ping Erh, with soft words, screens Chia Lien.
But to resume our story. When Shih Hsiang-yuen ran out of the room, she was all in a flutter lest Lin Tai-yue should catch her up; but Pao-yue, who came after her, readily shouted out, Youll trip and fall. How ever could she come up to you?
Lin Tai-yue went in pursuit of her as far as the entrance, when she was impeded from making further proGREss by Pao-yue, who stretched his arms out against the posts of the door.
Were I to spare Yuen Erh, I couldnt live! Lin Tai-yue exclaimed, as she tugged at his arms. But Hsiang-yuen, perceiving that Pao-yue obstructed the door, and surmising that Tai-yue could not come out, speedily stood still. My dear cousin, she smilingly pleaded, do let me off this time!
But it just happened that Pao-chai, who was coming along, was at the back of Hsiang-yuen, and with a face also beaming with smiles: I advise you both, she said, to leave off out of respect for cousin Pao-yue, and have done.
I dont aGREe to that, Tai-yue rejoined; are you people, pray, all of one mind to do nothing but make fun of me?
Who ventures to make fun of you? Pao-yue observed advisingly; and hadnt you made sport of her, would she have presumed to have said anything about you?
