Chiao Ta showed no consideration for Chia Jung. On the contrary, he shouted with more vigour. Going up to Chia Jung: Brother Jung, he said, dont put on the airs of a master with Chiao Ta. Not to speak of a man such as you, why even your father and grandfather wouldnt presume to display such side with Chiao Ta. Were it not for Chiao Ta, and him alone, where would your office, honours, riches and dignity be? Your ancestor, whom I brought back from the jaws of death, heaped up all this estate, but up to this very day have I received no thanks for the services I rendered! on the contrary, you come here and play the master; dont say a word more, and things may come right; but if you do, Ill plunge the blade of a knife white in you and extract it red.
Lady Feng, from inside the carriage, remarked to Chia Jung: Dont you yet pack off this insolent fellow! Why, if you keep him in your house, wont he be a source of mischief? Besides, were relatives and friends to hear about these things, wont they have a laugh at our expense, that a household like ours should be so devoid of all propriety?
Chia Jung assented. the whole band of servants finding that Chiao Ta was getting too insolent had no help but to come up and throw him over, and binding him up, they dragged him towards the stables. Chiao Ta abused even Chia Chen with still more vehemence, and shouted in a boisterous manner. I want to go, he cried, to the family Ancestral Temple and mourn my old master. Who would have ever imagined that he would leave behind such vile creatures of descendants as you all, day after day indulging in obscene and incestuous practices, in scraping of the ashes and in philandering with brothers-in-law. I know all about your doings; the best thing is to hide ones stump of an arm in ones sleeve! (wash ones dirty clothes at home)。
