I wont say these things again， Pao-yue laughingly protested， these are the reckless and silly absurdities of a time when I was young and had no idea of the height of the heavens and the thickness of the earth; but Ill now no more repeat them. What else is there besides?

It isnt right that you should sneer at the bonzes and vilify the Taoist priests， nor mix cosmetics or prepare rouge， Hsi Jen continued; but theres still another thing more important， you shouldnt again indulge the bad habits of licking the cosmetic， applied by people on their lips， nor be fond of (girls dressed) in red!

ll change in all this， Pao-yue added by way of rejoinder; ll change in all this; and if theres anything more be quick and tell me.

theres nothing more， Hsi Jen observed; but you must in everything exercise a little more diligence， and not indulge your caprices and allow your wishes to run riot， and youll be all right. And should you comply to all these things in real earnest， you couldnt carry me out， even in a chair with eight bearers.

Well， if you do stay in here long enough， Pao-yue remarked with a smile， theres no fear as to your not having an eight-bearer-chair to sit in!

Hsi Jen gave a sardonic grin. I dont care much about it， she replied; and were I even to have such good fortune， I couldnt enjoy such a right. But allowing I could sit in one， there would be no pleasure in it!
