红楼梦Chapter13

Madame Wang perceiving the reasonableness of what she heard her say， uttered not a word， and when Chia Chen saw that lady Feng had assented; How much you do attend to I dont mind， he observed， forcing another smile， but I must， in any case， entreat you， cousin， to assume the onerous charge. As a first step Ill pay my obeisance to you in here， and when everything has been finished， I shall then come over into that mansion to express my thanks.

With these words still on his lips， he made a low bow， but lady Feng had scarcely had time to return the compliment， before Chia Chen had directed a servant to fetch the warrant of the Ning mansion， which he bade Pao-yue hand over to lady Feng.

Cousin， he added， take whatever steps you think best; and if you want anything， all you have to do is to simply send for it with this， and there will even be no use to consult me. The only thing I must ask you is， not to be too careful in order to save me expense， for the main consideration is that things should be handsomely done. In the second place， it will be well if you were also to treat servants here in the same way as in the other mansion， and not be too scrupulous in the fear that any one might take offence. Outside these two concerns， theres nothing else to disturb my mind.
