But without going into further details on this subject, we shall now return to Pao-yue. Seeing that there were a lot of people about and fearing lest Chin Chung might receive some offence, he lost no time in coming along with him to sit over at lady Fengs. Lady Feng was just having her repast, and upon seeing them arrive: Your legs are long enough, and couldnt you have come somewhat quicker! she laughingly observed.
Weve had our rice, thanks, replied Pao-yue.
Have you had it, inquired lady Feng, outside here, or over on the other side?
Would we eat anything with all that riff-raff? exclaimed Pao-yue; weve really had it over there; in fact, I now come after having had mine with dowager lady Chia.
As he uttered these words, they took their seats. Lady Feng had just finished her meal, when a married woman from the Ning mansion came to get an order to obtain an advance of money to purchase incense and lanterns with.
I calculated, observed lady Feng, that you would come to-day to make requisition, but I was under the impression that you had forgotten; had you really done so you would certainly have had to get them on your own account, and I would have been the one to benefit.
Didnt I forget? I did, rejoined the married woman as she smiled; and its only a few minutes back that it came to my mind; had I been one second later I wouldnt have been in time to get the things.
