I felt awfully dull, Pao-yue rejoined with a smile, and came to see what you were up to.
Hsi Jen at these words banished, at last, all anxiety from her mind. Youre again up to your larks, she observed, but whats the aim of your visit? Who else has come along with him? she at the same time went on to question Ming Yen.
All the others know nothing about it! explained Ming Yen exultingly; only we two do, thats all.
When Hsi Jen heard this remark, she gave way afresh to solicitous fears: This is dreadful! she added; for were you to come across any one from the house, or to meet master; or were, in the streets, people to press against you, or horses to collide with you, as to make (his horse) shy, and he were to fall, would that too be a joke? The gall of both of you is larger than a peck measure; but its all you, Ming Yen, who has incited him, and when I go back, Ill surely tell the nurses to beat you.
Ming Yen pouted his mouth. Mr. Secundus, he pleaded, abused me and beat me, as he bade me bring him here, and now he shoves the blame on my shoulders! Dont let us go, I suggested; but if you do insist, well then let us go and have done.
Hua Tzu-fang promptly interceded. Let things alone, he said; now that theyre already here, theres no need whatever of much ado. The only thing is that our mean house with its thatched roof is both so crammed and so filthy that how could you, sir, sit in it!
