Of course there is! observed the old lady; what a dear child she is! should anything happen to her, wont it be enough to make people die from grief! and as she spake she felt for a time quite sore at heart. You and she, continuing, she said to lady Feng, have been friends for ever so long; to-morrow is the glorious first (and you cant go), but after to-morrow you should pay her a visit and minutely scrutinise her appearance: and should you find her any better, come and tell me on your return! Whatever things that dear child has all along a fancy for, do send her round a few even as often as you can by some one or other!
Lady Feng assented to each of her recommendations; and when the second arrived, she came, after breakfast, to the Ning mansion to see how Mrs. Chin was getting on; and though she found her none the worse, the flesh all over her face and person had however become emaciated and parched up. She readily sat with Mrs. Chin for a long while, and after they had chatted on one thing and another, she again reiterated the assurances that this illness involved no danger, and distracted her for ever so long.
Whether I get well or not, observed Mrs. Chin, well know in spring; now winter is just over, and Im anyhow no worse, so that possibly I may get all right; and yet theres no saying; but, my dear sister-in-law, do press our old lady to compose her mind! yesterday, her ladyship sent me some potato dumplings, with minced dates in them, and though I had two, they seem after all to be very easily digested!
