It wasnt convenient for them, remarked lady Feng, to be over here; but who knows what they have again gone to do behind our backs?
Could every one, interposed Mrs. Yu, resemble you, a person of such propriety!
While they indulged in chatting and laughing, the plays they had chosen were all finished; whereupon the tables were cleared of the wines, and the repast was served. The meal over, the whole company adjourned into the garden, and came and sat in the drawing-room. After tea, they at length gave orders to get ready the carriages, and they took their leave of Mrs. Yus mother. Mrs. Yu, attended by all the secondary wives, servants, and married women, escorted them out, while Chia Chen, along with the whole bevy of young men, stood by the vehicles, waiting in a group for their arrival.
After saluting mesdames Hsing and Wang, Aunts, they said, you must come over again to-morrow for a stroll.
We must be excused, observed madame Wang, weve sat here the whole day to-day, and are, after all, feeling quite tired; besides, we shall need to have some rest to-morrow.
Both of them thereupon got into their carriages and took their departure, while Chia Jui still kept a fixed gaze upon lady Feng; and it was after Chia Chen had gone in that Li Kuei led round the horse, and that Pao-yue mounted and went off, following in the track of mesdames Hsing and Wang.
