My mother wont naturally have the audacity to be headstrong! Hsi Jen ventured, not to speak besides of the nice things, which may be told her and the lots of money she may, in addition, be given; but were she even not to be paid any compliments, and not so much as a single cash given her, she wont, if you set your mind upon keeping me here, presume not to comply with your wishes, were it also against my inclination. One thing however; our family would never rely upon prestige, and trust upon honorability to do anything so domineering as this! for this isnt like anything else, which, because you take a fancy to it, a hundred per cent profit can be added, and it obtained for you! This action can be well taken if the seller doesnt suffer loss! But in the present instance, were they to keep me back for no rhyme or reason, it would also be of no benefit to yourself; on the contrary, they would be instrumental in keeping us blood relatives far apart; a thing the like of which, I feel positive that dowager lady Chia and my lady will never do!
After lending an ear to this argument, Pao-yue cogitated within himself for a while. From what you say, he then observed, when you say youll go, it means that youll go for certain!
Yes, that Ill go for certain, Hsi Jen rejoined.
Who would have anticipated, Pao-yue, after these words, mused in his own heart, that a person like her would have shown such little sense of gratitude, and such a lack of respect! Had I, he then remarked aloud with a sigh, been aware, at an early date, that your whole wish would have been to go, I wouldnt, in that case, have brought you over! But when youre away, I shall remain alone, a solitary spirit!
