<center>'''Analysis on Localized Translation of English Games Based on Skopos Theory
--Taking League of legends as an Example'''</center>

<center>Liu Chang</center>

===Abstract===
At present, with the vigorous development of information technology, basing on information technology and internet platform, online games gradually get rid of the name of electronic heroin, and gradually industrialize and systematize. It can be seen that e-sports has now become a relatively mature industry, but the problem is that most online games on the market are imported from abroad. Therefore, one of the inevitable problems in the introduction process is the localization of the game. Language, as an important carrier of information transmission, plays an indispensable role in game localization. Not like the traditional text, the translation of game text pays more attention to the main position of the reader and its adaptability in the target market. Taking the game League of Legends as an example, this paper explores how to better combine the game with Chinese culture in the form of language from the perspective of Skopos Theory of Translation, so as to make Chinese players accept the games better and more likely to be infiltrated by traditional Chinese culture during the process of enjoying the game.
In this thesis, the author analyses the textual material of League of Legends from the perspective of Skopos Theory. Through the analysis of the lines, titles and names of the champions of this game. The author finds that the translators of the game mostly take the domestication strategy, and use several translation methods such as transliteration, amplification, free translation and so on to achieve their goal: making this game more acceptable for Chinese player and helping the Chinese players have a better game experience. However, during the process of analysis, the author analyzes the mistranslation and corrects the translation based on Skopos Theory. After the analysis of the material, it can be seen that with the guidance of Skopos Theory, translators can have specific rules to obey in order to achieve the goal and come out good translation. However, the related research in china is still very few, so the scholars should pay more attention to this field and make it a systematic discipline.

===Key words===
Skopos Theory; Game Translation; League of Legends

===Introduction===
(1)Research Background

With the increase of the power of consumption of Chinese consumers, the game market of China is also thriving now. According to the statistics, China now is the largest game market in the world, with the number of game player more than 600,000,000 (Dai Jie:2019,100-101). However, since most e-sports games in China are introduced from abroad, localized translation is very important. Currently, all large-scale e-sports games have specialized localized translation teams (Liu Chang & Yang Weixiu:2019,30-32). Their job is to translate the foreign games into Chinese in the way that can meet the need of Chinese player. During this process, the translators face a lot of difficulties, so they have to do the job with the instruction of various kinds of translation theories. In this thesis, the author takes the online game League of Legends, which is hot all around the world, as an example, and analyzes the translation of names and lines of the characters in the game based on the Skopos theory of Translation put forward by Hans Vermeer to discuss the principles of the Skopos theory showed or missed in the textual material.

(2)Brief Introduction to League of Legends

League of Legends (LOL) is developed by the United States game company Riot and operated by Tencent game. It is a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game (Cai Qiqi & Huang Yanjie:2018,84-88). In the game, the player takes on the role of a summoner and chooses your trusted allies to enter the Summoner’s Valley to battle with your enemies, fighting for the justice of Varoran. There is only one rule: Victory is everything!
In the eyes of the game players and game developers, LOL is not just a game, but a fantasy world with a complete and huge world view. Every champion (the character manipulated by the players) possesses his or her own name, title, background story, lines and so on, which does not only enrich the content of the game, but also put forward a lot of challenges for the translators, for all of these names, titles and lines are the textual material which needs to be translated.

(3)Purpose and Significance of Game Translation

As foreign games have thrived in Chinese market, the paradox between fast development and a relative shortage of research about game translation has become apparent. In the process of the translation of the material of the game, the quality of translation has a great influence on the player's game experience, which is very important. However, domestic research on game translation is still in its infancy, and relevant scholars and translators may face the embarrassing situation that there is no theoretical knowledge as reference. Therefore, the research on game translation is a must-to-do and has certain practical significance. This thesis discusses how to better combine the game with Chinese culture in the form of language from the perspective of Skopos Theory of Translation, so as to make Chinese players accept the games better and more likely to be infiltrated by traditional Chinese culture during the process of enjoying the game.

===Literature Review===
(1) Review on Research of Skopos Theory of Translation

Foreign studies on functional translation start very early. Andrew Chesterman collects famous articles by Vermeer and Nord in Readings in Translation Theory (1989). Jeremy Munday introduces the main connotation of functional Translation theory in Introduced Translation Studies, and he believes that the functional translation school and communicative translation theory born in Germany promoted the innovation of translation theory, turning it from a static linguistic category into a cross-cultural communication behavior (2001,73-80). In Contemporary Translation Theories (2nd Revised Edition), according to Edwin Gentzler, the birth of the functional school of translation theory is an important moment in the history of translation theory. It puts an end to the two-thousands-long struggle between faithfulness and freedom in translation circles. According to functional translation theory, both faithful and free translation can be regarded as the correct choice as long as it conforms to the communicative purpose of the target text (2001,71). But at the same time, there are also some scholars have a skeptical or even negative attitude towards the functional Skopos theory. Peter Newmark, a famous translation theorist, thinks that functional translation theory was “dogmatism”. He comments in his book that “translation is a fractured discipline, and it is especially inappropriate to use a single integrated theory, dogma or general expression covering any text type. In this kind of process and practice, one must consider many issues at the same time... there is not any well-considered theory can cover all translation problems (1990,105).”
There are four stages of the development of the Skopos Theory of Translation:
The first stage: Katharina Reiss introduces the functional category into translation criticism for the first time (1999). The second stage: Hans Vermeer proposes Skopos Theory, which frees translation studies from the bondage of textual centralism (1987). The third stage: Justa Holz Manttari, proposes the theory of translation behavior. The fourth stage: Christiane Nord comprehensively summarizes and improves the functionalism theory (1991,30-32). He has proposed that translators should follow the guiding principle of “function plus loyalty”, and then perfected the theory (1996).

(2)Review on the Research of Game Translation

With the rapid expansion of the video game industry, there have been more and more researches on game translation in recent years. Trainor introduced game translation from two aspects of game content and text (2003,14). Yan Mingle analyzes the translation process in the process of the localization of games, and summarized some characteristics (2009).
Xiao Zhiyan believes that as a kind of cross-cultural communication behavior, the name of game has a very strong purpose, and it bears the task of spreading the game information and facilitating the purchase in the cultural environment of the target language (2011).

(3)Summary

The development of the Skopos theory of translation now is already very mature now, however, the domestic research about game translation is still on its preliminary stage now. So translators and scholars should do the research of game translation based on the mature theory and make it the guidance of the practical translation. Only with the help of developed theory, translators are able to make the research of the game translation more systematical and standardized.

===Methods and Theories===
(1)An Introduction to Skopos Theory

Skopos Theory, which is developed by German linguist Vermeer, is the core of functional translation theory. It breaks through the bondage of equivalent translation theory centered on original text.
Vermeer believes that “translation is a human behavior”, and “any behavior has a purpose”, so “translation is a purposeful behavior”, thus translation is “a discourse produced for a certain purpose and target audience in certain situation of the target language” (1996).
Vermeer believes that translation should follow the skopos rule, the coherence rule and the fidelity rule, among which the skopos rule is the supreme principle. Vermeer completely breaks out of the equivalence theory of the textual center and focuses on the function of the text. In his opinion, translation strategies and methods must be flexible, and the translation should be carried out according to the situation and the purpose of the text, so as to realize the function and purpose of the text.

(2)Basic Rules of Skopos Theory

(2.1)The Skopos Rule

In the system of the Skopos theory of translation, the Skopos rule is the primary principle guiding all translations, which usually refers to the communicative purpose of the translation. That is to say, Skopos rule is the primary principle of Skopos theory. Because all texts are inevitably created with a certain purpose and ultimately to achieve this purpose, so the means to achieve the purpose should be determined by the purpose (Nord,1997,15).

(2.2)The Coherence Rule

Coherence rule refers to intralingual coherence, which means that the target text audience should be able to understand the content of the target text according to the context set by the translator.

(2.3)The Fidelity Rule

The fidelity rule refers to interlingual coherence, which reflects the relationship between the original text and the target text. It emphasizes that the content of the target text should be faithful to the content of the original text, but the degree and form of such fidelity depend on the translator's understanding of the original text and the specific requirements of the translation purpose.

(3)Summary

After understanding the basic meaning of the three rules of the Skopos Theory of translation, it can be found that in this theory, the most innovative point is the first and primary rule——the Skopos rule. It is the core of this theory and also it serves as the basic norm during the process of translation if someone is going to translate something based on the Skopos Theory. And the rest of the rules make up the void of the theory and improve the quality of the product to some extent.

===Translation Under Skopos Theory===
(1)Translation Under Skopos Rule

LOL is developed by western game company, so the original content is based on the combination of western culture and the fictional world. However, in the Chinese version, the Skopos rule has been precisely followed and many Chinese features and elements are added in the content in order to cater to the expectations and tastes of Chinese players (Zhang Yiyang:2016). During the process of the translation of the material, the translators mostly use the translation strategy of domestication and several translation methods such as transliteration, free translation, and so on, to achieve their goals.

Example 1:

Original version: Xayah, Rakan

Chinese version：霞、洛

In the background story of the game, “Xayah” and “Rakan” are both from Vastaya, where lives the half-bird, half-human creature. And they are enviable couple that can never be divided. According to this background information, here is the Chinese version “霞” and “洛”. The names are originated from a famous Chinese quatrains: A Tribute to King Teng’s Tower. In this quatrains, the author Wang Bo uses “落霞与孤鹜齐飞，秋水共长天一色” to describe the beautiful scenery of the sky (Tang Jiawen:2019, 127-129). So it can be found that this quatrain is suitable for the translation of “Xayah” and “Rakan”. There are three reasons. The first one is that in the quatrain, “落霞” and “孤鹜” together form a harmonious scenery and they seem to unite as one, also “Rakan” and “Xayah” are intimate lovers which is also a harmonious images. In this way, it can be considered as a kind of domestication. The second reason is that “Xayah” and “Rakan” are both half-bird creature, which correspond to “与孤鹜齐飞” in the quatrain. They are half-bird, so they can fly. The third reason is that the pronunciations of “Xayah” and “Rakan” are similar to the Chinese words “霞” and “洛”. In this way, the translator uses transliteration to achieve his goal. From three perspectives, the author thinks that the translation of this textual material is accord with the Skopos rule, for the translation does not only convey the information of the original text, but also meet the need and expectations of Chinese players.

Example 2

Original version: Here’s a tip and a spear behind.

Chinese version: 一点寒芒先到，随后枪出如龙。

In this case, it is the lines of a champion named Zhao Xin in the game. Zhao Xin is a loyal warrior with a spear as his weapon. His prototype is the famous military officer in the three kingdoms period, Zhao Yun. So during the process of translation, the translator also takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods of free translation and amplification to cater to the taste of Chinese player. In this sentence, “先到” and “如龙” are both amplification to make the sentence more neat and orderly in Chinese. Also the translator uses free translation to make the sentence more readable in Chinese. In this way, the translator achieves the goal of making the translation more acceptable for Chinese player.

(2)Translation Under Coherence Rule

The coherence rule means that there must be intra-textual coherence in the translation, that is to say, the target text should be readable and acceptable. It enables the recipient to understand and make sense in the culture of the target language and the communicative context in which the target text is used. Thus, the Chinese player usually make some nicknames for the champions in the game (champion is the character manipulated by the player in the game) to make it easy to read and accept for Chinese player (Gong Lei:2018). During the process of translation, the translator mostly takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods such as free translation, literal translation and so on.

Example 1:

Original version: the outlaw

Chinese version: 法外狂徒

Nick name: 男枪

The outlaw is the title of a male champion named Graves in the game (every champion own his title in the game, which is considered as another name of the champion)， he is a criminal with a big rifle. In Chinese version , official translators translate the title of Graves, the outlaw, into “法外狂徒” literally. However, for the sake of convenience, the Chinese players further simplify it into “男枪”, which means the man with a rifle. In this case, the players can also be considered as the translators, they just combinate the image of this champion and his gender, and use literal translation to get a nick name for this champion. In this way, the name of this champion is more easily to read and widely accepted by Chinese player.
Example 2:

Original version: The Deceiver

Chinese version: 诡术妖姬

In the background story of the game, Leblanc is a beautiful lady and she is a great magician who likes to cheat other by her tricks, so she gets his title “The Deceiver”. In this case, the translator does not translate “The Deceiver” into “欺骗者” or “骗子” literally. Instead, the translator translates it into “诡术妖姬” in the way of free translation and amplification, which combinates the features and gender of this champion. In this way, “诡术妖姬”, obviously, is a better choice than “骗子” or “欺骗者”. Also, for Chinese, the title of four characters is usually more readable.

(3)Translation Under Fidelity Rule

The fidelity rule means that there must be inter-coherence between source text and target text, which is equal to the principle of faithfulness in other translation theories, that is to say, the translation must ground on the information given by the source text. Thus, during the process of translating the game, the translator uses various strategies to translate certain terms (Xin Yue: 2019). During the process of translation, the translator mostly takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods such as free translation, literal translation and so on.

Example 1:

Original version: Monkey King

Chinese version: 齐天大圣

In this example, the title of Monkey king belongs to the champion named Wu Kong, whose prototype is the monkey in the ancient Chinese novel, The Journey to the West. However, the translator does not just translate monkey king into “猴子王” literally, but translate it into “齐天大圣”, which conforms to the source text. Because almost all the Chinese know the story of Wu Kong and his title “齐天大圣”. In this way, based on the translation strategy of domestication and the translation method of free translation, the translator makes it more corresponding to the original text. So the author considers this version as a successful translation which obeys the fidelity rule.

Example 2:

Original version: The fist of Shadow

Chinese version: 暗影之拳

In this case, the translator just uses the literal translation to translate the title, also there is
one point has to be mentioned. During the translation of the material, the translator uses literal translation in many places as long as there is correspondence between English and Chinese in that material. In this way, the translation obeys the fidelity rule.

===Mistranslation in League of Legends===
During the process of translating the material, though most of the translation is in accord with the Skopos theory. However, the author also finds there are some mistranslation from the perspective of Skopos theory.

(1)Mistranslation Against Skopos Rule

In the process of translation, it is inevitable to meet some material which is difficult to translate in the way conforming to the Skopos rule.

Example 1:

Original version: Minotaur

Chinese version：牛头酋长

In this example, originally, Minotaur is the monster with human’s body and the head of cow in Greek myth, however, in the Chinese version, the translators simply translate it into “牛头酋长”, which means the chieftain of cow. In this way, it violates the Skopos rule. Because according to the Skopos rule of the Skopos theory, the translator to translate the original text into the target language in a way that suits his purpose. In the process of translation of games, the purpose is to make the gamers experience the game in a more immersing way. That is to say, translators should take Chinese culture into consideration during the process of translation. However, the word “酋长” is rarely used in Chinese. So in this case, maybe “牛魔王” is a better choice. The first reason is that it has the same image with the champion in the game. The second reason is that Chinese players are familiar to this name.

Example 2:

Original version：The Lady of Clockwork

Chinese version: 发条魔灵

In this case, the author thinks the Chinese version is a kind of overtranslation, for here the translator translates “lady” into “魔灵”. However, “魔灵” is a word of western style and not usually seen in Chinese. In Chinese, the word “魂” usually be used to express the meaning of “灵”. Also, the translation does not show the gender of this champion. So here the author thinks “发条魔姬” may be a better version. In this version, both literal translation and amplification are used. “姬” is a Chinese style word which is equal to lady. In this way, it can be more easily accept by the Chinese players. And “魔” can show the essence of the champion.

(2)Mistranslation Against Coherence Rule

During the process of translating the game, the translators sometimes have to violate the coherence rule in order to cater to the Skopos rule or the fidelity rule.

Example 1:

Original version: The might of Demacia

Chinese version: 德玛西亚之力

In this case, the translator translates “The Might of Demacia” (Demacia is a city-state in the game) into “德玛西亚之力” in Chinese. That is a kind of literal translation, however, few names of place are longer than three words. “德玛西亚” may not be easy to read and accept by Chinese players. In this way, it violates the coherence rule. As a result of it, the players usually call it “德玛” for short. And there is a good example for the translation of the name of place. In this case, the city Piltover is called “皮城” in Chinese. Also, there is a title of a champion called The Seneschal of Demacia. Its Chinese version is “德邦总管”. According to these two example, it can be known that in the translation of the name of some place, the translator may take the initial as the first character of Chinese version, then use a word which is equal to the meaning of “city”, such as “城”、“邦”. It is a kind of free translation. In this case of “The Might of Demacia”, the authors takes “德邦” from the case of “德邦总管” and translate it into “德邦之力”. In this way, it is easier for the players to read and accept.

Example 2:

Original version: The Defender of Tomorrow

Chinese version: 未来守护者

In this case, the translator translates the defender of tomorrow into “未来守护者”. apparently, here the translator extends “tomorrow” to “future”. The author thinks here the translator does a great job and comprehends the champion in a good way. It is an indication of amplification and free translation. Because it is universally known that tomorrow can be comprehended as future. But the problem is that, usually, the Chinese titles of the champions in this game are made of four characters. Because it is more easily for Chinese player to read. So in this case, “未来” can be retained, it is a good free translation, but “守护者” should be changed into “守卫”, there is a title of four characters ,which is more readable for Chinese players. In this way, it is in accord with the coherence rule.

(3)Mistranslation Against Fidelity Rule

During the process of translating the game, the translators may have to violate the fidelity rule in order to obey the other two rules.

Example 1:

Original version: The Rabble Rouser

Chinese version: 酒桶

In this case, originally, the Rabble Rouser means the person who instigates the masses, however, in Chinese version, it is simply translated into “酒桶”, which means the man with a wine bucket, for the image of this champion in the game is a man with a wine bucket. But according to the background story of this champion, he is a reckless and impetuous drunker. So the author thinks the Chinese version does not obey the fidelity rule. It does not follow the original meaning of its English version. In this case, the author thinks “肇事酒徒” may be a better translation for the title of this champion. It does not only conform to the background story of this champion, but also fit his image.

Example 2:

Original version: The Hexplosive Expert

Chinese version: 爆破鬼才

In this case, the translator uses omission to translate this title, in this way it seems to be more readable for Chinese players. However, the translator dose not obey the fidelity rule here, because the translator just takes the word “Hexplosive” as “explosive”. Actually, “Explosive” is derived from Hex, which is a top science study in League of Legends, and the champion uses the “Hextech Engine” when making bombs, he is named after this. So the author thinks that the title should be translated in a literal way to obey the meaning of the original text. So the author’s version is “海克斯爆破专家”.

(3)Summary
After analyzing the translation of the textual material of the game, it can be found that there are some places violating the Skopos Theory, but they are just a part of the translation of the whole game. One thing have to be admitted: there are many excellent translation in the game that cater to the taste of expectations of Chinese player. Also this is primary rule of Skopos theory.

===Conclusion===
Video game, known as the ninth art, is a booming and potential industry. As China's opening up and the e-sports industry thriving, the game market of China is expected to expand dramatically, but the demand for high-quality games also increases. As an crucial medium for domestic players to have better game experience, the quality of game translation has a direct influence on the players’ game experience (Qiao Dan:2020). However, because of the development of online games, traditional ways of game translation is not able to meet the requirements of players now. Skopos Theory focuses on the communicative purpose of translation, which offers a theoretical basis for the translator to use various ways to achieve the goals. The translator of the game should firstly figure out the role of the original text in the original context, then analyze the requirements and acceptance ability of the target recipients, and finally reproduce the meaning of the original text smoothly with words in line with the game style.
In this thesis, the author analyzes the textual materials of lol from the prospect of Skopos theory. Through the analysis of the lines, titles and names of the champions of this game. The author finds that the translators of the game mostly take the domestication strategy, and use several translation methods such as transliteration, amplification, free translation and so on to achieve their goal—making this game more acceptable for Chinese players and helping the Chinese players have a better game experience. However, during the process of analysis, the author also finds that there are many mistranslation from the point view of Skopos theory. So the author analyzes the mistranslation and corrects the translation based on Skopos theory. After the analysis of the material, it can be seen that with the guidance of Skopos theory, translators can have specific rules to obey in order to achieve the goal and come out good translation. However, the related research in China is still very few, so the scholars should pay more attention to this field and make it a systematic discipline.

Chinese Online Fantasy Novels：A comparison Between Dragon Raja and Harry Potter
Liu Lele
===Abstract===
Harry Potter and Dragon Raja, two famous fantasy novels, are similar in many ways including plots, character settings and so on. Since the former is famous across the world while the latter have not been translated from Chinese into English yet, we can learn a lot sentence patterns, phrases, and words from Harry Potter when translating Dragon Raja into English.
===Key words===
Dragon Raja; translation material; communication; fantasy
===Introduction===
There is no superior culture, but there are strong and weak ones. According to Toury's multiple systems theory, Chinese culture is relatively weak compared with British and American culture. Chinese literature has been marginalized in the world literature system for a long time, so when entering the field of English literature, it is usually dominated in the field of English literature. In the past few decades, the translation of contemporary Chinese literature to the English world has not been very successful. Readers in the English-speaking world object to translated literature from any culture, and it is very difficult for translated literature to enter the English world. Although there were two large-scale translation and introduction activities of Panda Series and Great China Library with a lot of material and human resources invested, but the result was not ideal. Although Dragon Raja, as an online literature, can not represent Chinese culture, its exciting plot and low barrier of readers would make it a good guide in achieving the "go global" strategy.
Both Harry Potter and Dragon Raja are a series of fantasy novels that have achieved great success, and both their main characters Harry Potter, Lu Mingfei and their storyline shares many similarities. One is popular across the world, and one is popular in China. So when translating Dragon Raja into English, we can learn many useful words, expressions and sentence patterns from Harry Potter.
===Similarities===
Harry Potter starts from the family of Mr. Dursley, the husband of the main character Harry Potter’s aunt, and Dragon Raja also starts from the family of Mr. Lu Gucheng, the uncle of the main character Lu Mingfei.

There is a special academy in both Harry Potter and Dragon, the Hogwarts College in Harry Potter and Kassel College in Dragon Raja, which are places where the main characters learn corresponding knowledge. Both colleges are extremely special. Hogwarts is about magic, kassel is about dragons, and both colleges are different from real universities. Neither college is known to the general public, and both have some mysteries.

In "Harry Potter" the headmaster of Hogwarts Dumbledore is a very powerful wizard, numerous honors, proficient in all kinds of high order magic, and is also the backbone of Hogwarts and even the whole magic community. In The Dragon Clan, The principal of Kassel Academy, Anger, is also a powerful dragon slayer. Kassel Academy, with Anger as its seat, has a great say in the mixed-race society. Both headmasters act as guides for the main characters in their respective works. Dumbledore loves Harry very much, while Angers loves Lummingfield even more than his pocketknife.

Both works depict a grand worldview that is different from the real world. Harry Potter describes an imaginary magical world in which all sorts of magical things are fascinating. Dragons also portrays the magical world of the dragon clan, attracting many fans with its whimsical ideas about various characters and historical events.

Neither Harry nor Lu Mingfei, who played the leading role in "Harry Potter" nor "Dragon Raja", was the best in the academy. In Harry Potter, Harry is not good either in actual combat ability or in school, while Lu Mingfei is a loser in Dragon Raja. But they both have extraordinary fates, Harry is the chosen one, and Lumingfei is also the key to ending the history of the dragon race.

In both books, there is a special race that has special abilities that ordinary people do not have. Magic in Harry Potter and speech and Spirit in Dragons are both powerful special abilities. Those who possess these special abilities are divided between wizards and hybrids. Wizards and hybrids are difficult groups for ordinary people to reach, and they don't want them to.

Before entering the academy, both Lumingfield and Harry stayed in their uncle's house, and neither of them was very popular. Both grew up in very similar environments, with few friends and often being bullied. Both men met their best friends after attending special schools. Harry meets Hermione and Ron on the train to Hogwarts, and Lummingfield meets Fingal at the station.
===Differences===
As mentioned above, Harry Potter has a lot in common with Dragons, but that doesn't prevent both books from being excellent fantasy novels. Although there are many similarities between the two works at first glance, there are fundamental differences between the two works
"Harry Potter" is mainly based on the British or European wizard culture as the creation, describes an imaginary magical world. The Dragon Race, on the other hand, mainly creates a dragon world based on Nordic mythology. While Harry Potter is full of wizarding legends and English history, Dragons is based on Norse mythology, but mostly borrows from names and allusions.

Most of the stories in harry Potter take place at Hogwarts, so the rest of the books are very brief. Dragons takes place everywhere, not just at Castle College.

In both books, there are special groups with superpowers, wizards and dragon hybrids. But their lifestyles are totally different. Wizards are more isolated and do not generally interact with Muggles; Hybrids, on the other hand, are hidden in the secular world and hold impressive secular power. And when dealing with enemies, wizards can only use magic, which means that only magic can defeat magic in the Harry Potter worldview. In Dragon Race, the hybrids are very willing to use the power of technology. Science is very important in Dragon Race, and the hybrids are always looking for the combination of dragon power and science.

The ultimate villains in Harry Potter are pure-blood believers led by Lord Voldemort, but they still belong to wizards. As far as dragons are concerned, the villains are dragons. Simply put, the villains in Harry Potter are wizards, while the villains in Dragons are other races. Those who are not of our kind have different hearts. So Dragons as a whole reads more murder and hatred than Harry Potter.

Harry Potter is a fairy tale with strong religious significance in essence. There are many fairy tale elements and religious metaphors in it, and more of them are religious thinking to persuade people to be good. "Dragon Raja" is a secular novel for young people from the beginning, most of which is about the discussion of common people themselves.

In Harry Potter, because it is the essence of fairy tale, the protagonist is naturally good, while the villain is naturally evil. The definition of good and evil is very simple and crude. In The Dragon Clan, it seems that the dragon clan is the villain, but the dragon clan described in the book is not necessarily evil. The confrontation between the hybrid and the dragon clan is more for survival status than good or evil.

In fact, there are many differences between the two works. For example, Lumingfield is more close to ordinary people and easier for us to relate to, while Harry is more like imaginary characters.
===Borrowing from Similarities===
Since the two novels share many similarities, when translating Dragon Raja, we can learn some useful words, expressions from Harry Potter.

3.1Sentence Patterns
(1)The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.
德思礼夫妇有一个小儿子，名叫达力。在他们看来，人世间没有比达力更好的孩子了。
婶婶觉得路鸣泽聪明，好读书，求上进，还特热爱文学，路鸣泽看《小说绘》在婶婶的嘴里也是“我们家鸣泽在学习”。
In Dragon Raja, it is the same case. So we can translate the above sentence into:
In Mrs. Lu’s opinion, her son Lu Mingze was smart and diligent with enthusiasm in literature. Even when Lu Mingze read Fiction and Draw, she thought he was doing some serious work.

(2)Might this not all be some huge joke that the Dursleys had cooked up? If Harry hadn’t known that the Dursleys had no sense of humor, he might have thought so...
这也许是杜斯礼一家搞的恶作剧？
也许“夕阳的刻痕”的真实身份给路鸣泽发觉了？路鸣泽想办法报复他玩呢？
When receiving the letter from their respective special college, Harry and Lu Mingfei both showed confusion and doubt. So we can translate the above sentence into:
Might this not all be some huge prank that Lu Mingze cooked up since he found out about the secret of “sunset”?

3.2 Phrases
(1)A deafening shout：震耳欲聋
Both in Harry Potter and in Dragon Raja, there’s people like shouting at the main characters, so we can use this phrase to make a vivid description of it.
(2)Questions exploded inside Harry’s head like fireworks.
These two words , “Explode” and “Fireworks”, together constitutes an lively description of the scene. Lu Mingfei was loaded with questions in his head when starting to know everything about dragons, which sounds unbelievable in the real world.

(3)The rattling cart火车咔嗒响。
Both Harry Potter and Dragon Raja have their special trains lead to the schools. So when depicting the sound a train makes in its way, we can use this phrase.

3.3 Words
Since both of the two are novels, when doing translating, we can meet a lot dialogues, which means the Chinese character--”说(said)” will need various substitutions. Besides, there are many descriptions of movements and expressions. Both these words can be very tricky when doing translating. Fortunately, Harry Potter offers various translations of them.

3.3.1 Words to describe the act of speaking(说）
(1) ...Harry asked urgently.
急忙问道，急切问道。
(2) ...said the boy, with a slight sneer.
男孩冷笑道(3)...said the pale boy carelessly,

路明非犹豫了一下，“是你？”
“Is that you?”hesitated a little, Lu Mingfei asked

“Yeah,it’s me, Chen Motong.”She said carelessly,”Got no better things to do than some gaming.”

Both Dragon Raja and Harry Potter are great fantasy novels. Dragon Raja has only been enjoyed in China, which to some extent is because it has no other versions than Chinese ones. Harry Potter has both attracting languages and similar plots with Dragon Raja, so there are things can be learned from it.

'''The Transmission of Chinese Folk Art'''
===Abstract===
===Key words===
===Introduction===
China has a long history and culture of the Chinese nation for five thousand years, resulting in a lot of folk art. They are rich and colorful, diverse in content, with a strong nationalist color, thus demonstrating the long history and profound culture of our Chinese folk art. However, with the rise of the era of large-scale industrialization, a lot of mechanized production has replaced the original manual production, and some traditional production techniques and traditional artistic creation have been gradually lost. How to protect the inheritance of Chinese folk art is a problem that we will think about. Today, in the new era, how to protect the development of Chinese folk art is an important link in the sustainable development of Chinese traditional art. China is a multi-ethnic country, and each nation has its own cultural characteristics and cultural characteristics. National culture needs time baptism and historical development, so thousands of years of history and culture is very precious.

<center>'''Translation and Dissemination of Chinese Contemporary Science Fiction '''</center>

<center>Liu Ting</center>

===Abstract===

Science fiction, Sci-fi for short, is defined as a novel that makes reasonable assumptions on the basis of respecting scientific conclusions. Chinese science fiction originated from the West and came into being under the influence and inspiration of translation. The translation of science fiction in China dates back to the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Since the beginning of the new century, many translated Chinese science fictions have been recognized by the international science fiction community, winning many awards such as the Hugo Award. Therefore, its translation and dissemination has become a phenomenon worthy of attention. However, in the field of translation studies, research on Chinese science fiction translation and dissemination is still insufficient. Therefore, this paper aims to study and analyze the contents, subjects and reception of contemporary Chinese science fiction translation and dissemination, summarize the problems involved, and look into the future, hoping that more attention could be paid to its translation and dissemination, so as to promote Chinese science fiction to go global.

===Key words===

Chinese science fiction, translation, dissemination, go global

===Introduction===

Science fiction originated from the Industrial Revolution in the West, and is a reflection of the development of technology and the demand of human beings to understand and transform nature in the field of literature and art. Science fiction is a product of the advent of the scientific century, a necessary reflection of the spiritual civilization after the integration of science and technology and the promotion of industrialization, a new and novel cultural phenomenon worthy of study and attention. It is generally believed that in 1818, Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" pioneered science fiction.

The translation of science fiction follows the general rule of translating to convey the meaning of works, transmits the bizarre and transcendental storyline, reflects the narrative content and artistic value of the original text in translation, and generates a unique science fiction reading effect, so that the artistic connotation and expression value of science fiction can be reflected and extended in the language and culture of the translator through the reading and appreciation of the translated text, and continues to play its role of entertaining and influencing readers. This allows the artistic connotation and expressive value of foreign science fiction to be reflected and extended in the language and culture of the translator's country through the reading and appreciation of the translated text, and to continue to play its equivalent role of entertaining and influencing readers, thus releasing its scientific and cultural educational function.

Chinese science fiction has a history of more than 100 years. The translation of science fiction has not only provided sustenance for Chinese science fiction literature, but also witnessed the development of local science fiction literature from its infancy to its development. In recent years, the publication of Liu Cixin's trilogy, "The Three-Body Problem", has become a landmark event in the Chinese science fiction industry, attracting not only strong reactions in China, but also great interest from foreign readers and enthusiastic reviews and praise from professional critics. Since then, Chinese science fiction novels have been translated into the Western world and have frequently won international science fiction awards, becoming a thriving part of Chinese culture that has "gone global".

Nowadays, the competition between different countries in different fields has become more and more intense and complex. Cultural communication and development is always one of the hot topics. The universal and contemporary nature of Chinese science fiction literature has positive significance for the construction of Chinese cultural image. However, in the field of translation research, there is still much room for research on science fiction translation, and there is a particular lack of systematic research on foreign translation of Chinese science fiction works. Therefore, this paper will provide an overview and analysis of the research on foreign translation of Chinese science fiction literature on the basis of the basic situation of foreign translation of local science fiction novels, in order to provide some reference for the "going global" of Chinese science fiction literature and the translation of Chinese science fiction literature.

===Chinese Science fiction===

Science fiction

Science fiction or Sci-fic is a literary genre that originated in the West in modern times. which is based on scientific conclusions and reasonable assumptions. It is a form of fantasy that represents the material, spiritual and cultural life of human beings in the future world and the vision of science and technology. It is generally believed that a good science fiction novel must have three elements: "logical self-consistency", "scientific elements" and "humanistic thinking".

Science fiction originated in the West and is a literary genre that emerged with the booming development of science and technology in modern times. It is generally believed that Mary Shelley was the first to introduce science fiction elements into the creation of novels. Her "Frankenstein", published in 1818, is considered by many critics and enthusiasts to be “the world's first science fiction novel”. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there were two important European novelists: Jules Verne (French) and Herbert George Wells (English). The former is known as the "father of science fiction", and "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea", "The Mysterious Island" and "Captain Grant's Daughter" are his representative works. What is unique about Verne is that his novels show an unprecedented spirit of "scientific optimism," that is, the belief that "thanks to the development of science and technology, nothing is impossible," or that "with science the world will be more exciting in the future. The world of the future will be more exciting with science." The British author Wells pointed out all the paths that future generations of science fiction writers could continue to explore. His masterpieces include "The Time Machine", "The First Man on the Moon" and "When the Sleeper Wakes". Wells himself was also a prominent social activist who was critical of the capitalist system and always held the political view that "capitalism will lead to disaster". His works always allude to the society and politics of the time through a fantasy society. His works as a whole are full of concern for the future fate of human society, and both he and his works had an important impact on the social system and morality of the time. After the Second World War, science fiction took root in the United States. A pioneering figure in American science fiction was Edgar Rice Burroughs, author of the famous series of adventure novels, Tarzan of the Apes. American science fiction inherited the same kind of stylistic tradition as Wells, and became mainstream popular literature along with fantasy and adventure stories.

As science fiction continued to develop, many movies based on science fiction have been produced, which have more profoundly influenced the entertainment life and way of thinking of modern human society.

The science fiction community has also established many prestigious awards, such as the Hugo Award (which honors Hugo Gainsbourg, the founder of the first American science fiction magazine), the Nebula Award (the most prestigious award among science fiction awards), the Galaxy Award (the highest honor in Chinese fantasy fiction), and so on.

1.2 Origin and Development of Chinese Science Fiction

As a product of industrial civilization, science fiction is the only literary genre that has never existed in traditional Chinese literature (c.f: Han Song 2010, 28). Western science fiction was introduced to China through translation, beginning in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republican period, more than a hundred years ago. At that time, Western science and technology was developing rapidly, and it aroused the curiosity of the Chinese. Far-sighted individuals understood that the idea of science fiction was like a reflection on the backward economic, political, and technological system of society, and that it could lead us into a better future; otherwise the country would be impoverished and weak, and the massive popularity of science and technology was what China needed at that time, and this need was based on imagination. The fatal weakness of Chinese science and technology at that time was precisely the fear of imagination.

From the initiative to translate and study science fiction, to the creation and feeding of science fiction, the development of Chinese science fiction over the past hundred years can be roughly divided into four periods.

The first stage is the period from 1900 to 1919, the rise of science fiction translation, when Chinese science fiction was born. In the late Qing Dynasty, science fiction entered China with the Western scientific and cultural trend. According to the data, the first science fiction translation was French novelist Jules Verne's classic "Around the World in Eighty Days" (then titled《八十日环游记》in Chinese translation) (c.f: Guo Yanli 1998, 168). Since then, science fiction literature began to take root in China, spreading and introducing advanced Western scientific knowledge through fantastical storylines in the form of novels, and attracting the attention of advanced intellectuals. According to current data, the first two writers who began to advocate science fiction in China were Liang Qichao and Zhou Shuren, who in 1902 opened a column on "Philosophical and Scientific Fiction" in his own magazine, New Novel. The following year, Zhou Shuren translated Verne's novel "From the Earth to the Moon" and wrote a preface to it. From 1900 to 1919, more than 40 Western science fiction novels were translated into Chinese and introduced to the Chinese public (c.f: Jiang Qian 2007, 227)

The early translations of Western science fiction directly contributed to the birth of the new genre of Chinese science fiction. In 1904, the author whose pen name was 荒江钓叟 influenced by "Five Weeks in the Balloon" and wrote "The Moon Colony", one of the earliest science fiction novels in China. In 1905, Xu Nianci published "The New Mr. Fallo Tan", which was actually a sequel to the German "Mr. Fallo Tan". Science fiction in this initial stage was created with the same purpose as translation, and fantasy was more closely integrated with reality, that is, with the theme of saving the country, hoping to save China in distress by spreading the knowledge of natural science.

The second stage, from the early days of the founding of the PRC to the Cultural Revolution, was a new era of science fiction translation and creation. After the liberation, influenced by the political environment, Soviet science fiction became the main source of science fiction translations. Due to the political and ideological need for translation prosperity, the standardization of language and translation was also gradually improved. Science fiction translations in this period increased fidelity to the original text while taking into account readability, mainly adopting a combination of literal and free translation strategies, preserving the stylistic quality of the original text without limiting the syntax and sequence of the original text, and adding new footnotes to help Chinese readers understand. Influenced by Soviet science fiction, science fiction writers of this period had a consistent and clear goal: to convey as much scientific knowledge as possible to young people and children through science fiction, and to portray the bright future of the socialist country, so that young readers would be filled with hope and aspirations for the future of the motherland. "From Earth to Mars", written by Zheng Wenguang in 1954, was the first true science fiction novel in the history of New China. Zheng's work represents the overall characteristics of Chinese science fiction writing in the same period, that is, a distinctive sense of science popularization and children's literature, directly serving the popularization of science.

The third stage was from the end of Cultural Revolution in 1976 to the Ideological Rectification Movement in 1983, a brief spring of science fiction translation and creation. The development of science and technology in the country provided a good support for the development of science fiction. During this period, a large number of science fiction journals emerged, such as "Science Fiction World", which was founded in 1979, and "Science Fiction Ocean", which was created in 1981. In the early 1980s, the creation of Chinese science fiction reached an unprecedented boom, and science fiction frequently appeared in important literary journals such as People's Literature, Beijing Literature, Shanghai Literature, Contemporary Times, and Novel World, And Ye Yonglie, Zheng Wenguang, Tong Enzheng, and Liu Xingshi were called the "four great masters" of Chinese science fiction (c.f: Kong Qingdong 2003, 42). In 1980, Ye Yonglie was elected as the only director of the World Science Fiction Federation (WSF) in Asia, which was the first time for Chinese science fiction to go global. Zheng Wenguang's The Flight to Sagittarius was the first full-length science fiction novel in China. Tong Enzheng's Dead Light on Coral Island was published in People's Literature in 1978, the first time a science fiction novel was published in China's highest literary journal.

The fourth stage, from the 21st century to the present, is the feeding of Chinese science fiction into world science fiction. (c.f: Wang Xueming, Liu Yi 2015, 30). Entering into the 21st century, with the advent of globalization and the era of all-media, and the increasing exchanges between China and the international community, science fiction translation has entered a new era. A large number of excellent science fiction writers emerged in this period, such as Liu Cixin, Hao Jingfang, Han Song, and so on. It also witnessed the birth of many excellent works, such as Liu Cixin's "Wandering Earth", "The Three-Body Problem", and "Supernova Era", Hao Jingfang's "Beijing Folding", Han Song's "High Speed Rail", and "Subway". After the 21st century, the number of Chinese science fiction translated into other languages has increased dramatically, proving the great potential of Chinese science fiction development.

===2. Status of Translation and Dissemination of Chinese Science Fiction===

The overseas export of Chinese original science fiction novels has a long history. The earliest record that can be found now is the translation of Lao She's long science fiction novel "The Tale of the Cat City" by James E. Dew into English in 1964. However, in the first three stages, the translation of Chinese science fiction was fragmented and did not form a scale. From 2000 to 2020, the number of English translations of Chinese science fiction (including only the first publication) totaled 214 titles, including 10 full-length novels and 204 short and medium-length novels. (c.f: Gao Xi 2021, 58). In November 2014, Tor Books, one of the world's leading publishers of authoritative science fiction literature, published the first book of The three-body Problem, translated by Chinese-American science fiction writer Liu Yuqun, which subsequently won the Hugo Award. 2016, Hao Jingfang's In 2016, Hao Jingfang's Folding Beijing won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story.

From 2015 to 2020, there will be a large increase in the number of translations of long novels, including Liu Cixin's "The Dark Forest" (2015), "Death's End" (2016), "Ball Lightning" (2018), "Supernova Era" (2019), "Of Ants and Dinosaurs" (2020), Wang Jinkang's "Fourth Degree Panic" (2016), Chen Tulufan's "Waste Tide" (2019), Baoshu's "The Redemption of Time" (2019), and Hao Jingfang's "Vagabonds" (2020). Four short and medium-length science fiction novels from this period were published in the form of multi-person collections, including "Invisible Planets: Contemporary Chinese Science Fiction in Translation" (2016) and "Broken Stars: Contemporary Chinese Science Fiction in Translation" (2016), edited by Liu Yukun. There are three personal collections, including "To Hold Up the Sky" (2020) of Liu Cixin’s works, Han Song's "A Primer to Han Song" (2020) and Xia Jia's "A Summer Beyond Your Reach" (2020). The publishers of Chinese full-length science fiction and fiction collections include Tol Publishing, Head of Zeus Publishing, Saga Press, Wyrm Publishing, Dark Moon Books, Amazon Crossing, and Columbia University Press, of which the first two account for the majority. With the growing public interest in Chinese science fiction, these British and American publishers have seen the market potential of Chinese science fiction and have taken the initiative to bring outstanding Chinese science fiction works to the English-speaking world.

Since the 21st century, China has surpassed Japan to become the world's second largest economy in the world, and its influence in international affairs has been growing. The English-speaking world, led by the United States, wants to understand the rising of China and literature has become a more appropriate path. Specifically in the category of science fiction.

And there are three influential factors in the boom of Chinese science fiction in translation and dissemination that cannot be ignored.

In terms of Chinese science fiction itself, the quality of the original works and translations is excellent. This is the basis for the successful entry of Chinese science fiction into the English-speaking world, and it is also the basis for the "going abroad" of Chinese science fiction. While the main reason is that the western countries are becoming more open to Chinese science fiction. The important opportunity for the translation and dissemination is the increasingly frequent exchanges between the Chinese and foreign science fiction communities. In addition, China actively supports the creation of science fiction and the "going abroad" of Chinese culture at the national level especially after Liu Cixin and Hao Jingfang received awards, the science fiction boom continued to ferment, and local Chinese publishers and local publishers and science fiction culture enterprises have taken advantage of the favorable policies to actively expand their overseas overseas businesses and explore effective export models.

===Currents Problems in Translation and Dissemination===

Since the 21st century, there has been a boom in foreign translations of Chinese science fiction, and Chinese science fiction works have been translated into various languages at an unprecedented speed and scale, becoming a new calling card for Chinese literature “to go global".

The rapid development and continuous innovation of Chinese science fiction, as well as the attention and recognition of the world science fiction literature community towards Chinese science fiction, have pushed this literary category to gradually escape its own long-standing marginalization and begin to move closer to the center of literature. But while Chinese science fiction and translation are flourishing, we must also look at the problems that exist. Only by overcoming these problems can Chinese science fiction "go global" achieve further success.

First, although science fiction literature is increasingly moving to the "center" of literature, the creation of science fiction literature and the boom generated by its research have not generated the same interest and attention in the field of translation studies. Professor Guo Jianzhong's "Science Fiction and Science Fiction Translation: Theory, Techniques and Practice" is a must-read for anyone involved in science fiction translation and research. He was instrumental in establishing China's first "Institute of Science Fiction Literature" in the Department of Foreign Languages at Hangzhou University, but the Institute did not exist for long and its impact as a research unit was limited. Dr. Jiang Qian's doctoral dissertation, "Fantasy and Reality: Twentieth-Century Science Fiction in China" (2006), focuses on the translation and reception of twentieth-century science fiction in China, with a macro-historical overview and a micro-analysis of typical science fiction works from different periods, revealing the delicate interaction between translation and history and society in the process of translation. Apart from the above two monographs, most of them are fragmentary research papers. The lack of research on the translation of Chinese science fiction will not allow scholars to understand the new trends and characteristics of translation, and the lack of theoretical guidance will lead to the lack of good translation works.

Secondly, from the perspective of translation subjects. The subject of translation refers to "who" translates, and it is the problem of the translator that is explored. The most important issue in the foreign translation of Chinese science fiction is the quality of the translation. It is true that there are many excellent science fiction writers in China who have created a large number of excellent works, but there are not many excellent translations. The translation is an important medium for Chinese science fiction to go out, and without excellent translations, the excellent works will only be left in the dust. The reason for this is the lack of science fiction translation talents. Nowadays, the main translators of Chinese full-length science fiction novels are Liu Yu Kun and Zhou Hua. The former is known as "the first person to translate Chinese science fiction into English", and his first translation, The Fish of Lijiang, won the World Science Fiction and Fantasy Translation Award in 2012. His translations of The Three Bodies and The Beijing Fold have won successive Hugo Awards, and his translations have been instrumental in winning the Hugo Awards in the competition for original works in foreign languages. As a native English speaker who has lived in China for many years, Zhou Hua is well versed in Chinese language and culture. He not only translates science fiction, but also pure literature and non-literary works, and his translation skills should not be underestimated. On Amazon.com, the vast majority of readers have positively evaluated the translations by Yuquan Liu and Hua Zhou, saying that the translations are fluent without losing fidelity and readable, while retaining Chinese cultural characteristics well. Therefore, attention should be paid to the cultivation of science fiction translation talents, without which the world will not be able to know the real status of Chinese science fiction.

In addition, from the perspective of the translation route. The translation route explores the issue of how to promote and disseminate works. The foreign translation of Chinese science fiction lacks a complete industrial chain. "The Three-Body Problem" is a successful example of China's science fiction "going out". In 2014, the first English translation of "The Three-Body Problem" was published in the United States by the American publisher Tor Books. Founded in 1980, the publisher is the world's largest publisher of fantasy literature and a dream publisher for the world's top science fiction writers. Second, when the English translation of "The Three-Body Problem" was published in the United States, it was promoted in major media. The New York Times, The Washington Post, Publishers Weekly and other mainstream newspapers and magazines all promoted and reported on it. Compared with American science fiction, Chinese science fiction has not been marketed enough. American science fiction has formed a complete industry chain from periodicals to books to films and games, and a large number of science fiction novels and films based on them have been translated and introduced to other countries with great momentum, while the Chinese science fiction market is still a long way from it. Therefore, we should continue to explore a complete, mature and diversified science fiction industry chain, so as to provide a constant impetus for science fiction translation.

Finally, from the perspective of the translation audience. The audience of translation refers to the question of "who is the reader". As the mainstream ideology, the national culture of the English-speaking world has swept the world with a strong export attitude, and its people also use its mainstream culture as the value standard to examine the culture and literature of other countries. Therefore, in the process of Chinese literature dissemination to foreign countries, there is a problem of inequality between the weak culture and the strong culture. The proportion of translated literature in Western countries is extremely small. China has made active efforts to promote the foreign dissemination of Chinese culture, but if China does not make efforts to explore the best way to communicate with foreign audiences, the utility will only be half the effort. It should be said that in the process of going global, Chinese literature must understand the translation audience and adjust the translation behavior according to the needs of the translation audience in order to achieve better translation results.

Considering the above-mentioned problems, we should look for positive strategies to deal with them, so as to promote the dissemination of Chinese science fiction in the global arena. However, we should pay the most attention to good original works and translations. "Wine is not afraid of a deep alley", and good translations can help science fiction works to spread better in other countries.

===Conclusion===

At present, the translation of Chinese science fiction in the English-speaking world is getting better and better, and it has become an important vein of Chinese literature "going out". We should actively use the existing achievements and resources to bring into play the unique advantages of science fiction translation. On the one hand, we should insist on the commercialization of Chinese science fiction literature translation. Relevant enterprises should take advantage of their knowledge of domestic science fiction resources, cooperate with publishers such as Tor Books, and use their mature distribution channels to market their translations. Through these mainstream science fiction magazines and commercial publishers, Chinese science fiction has really come closer to the mass English readers, and even once became a hot topic in the translation-into-language society. On the other hand, according to the characteristics of the writers' works, we adopt suitable translation methods. For writers with high recognition in the English-speaking world, such as Liu Cixin and Chen Lvfan, long novels and individual collections are published; while for new writers or writers at the initial stage of translation, we mainly start with short and medium stories, and gradually cultivate readers' interest in the writers' works through science fiction magazines and multi-person collections.

At the same time, we should pay attention to the problems in the translation process and make timely adjustments to ensure the sustainable and stable export of Chinese science fiction to the outside world. First, we should pay attention to the balance and representativeness of translated works. We should not translate only one writer's works just because he is particularly popular in overseas markets, but should select works suitable for translation according to readers' preferences, translate and introduce more excellent works of different writers. We should pay attention to the sustainability of science fiction literature and industry development. The prosperity of science fiction English translation is fundamentally dependent on the continuous development of Chinese science fiction literature and industry. Both creation and film and television adaptations require sustained policy support and financial investment. The government should clarify the value of science fiction literature and help the long-term development of science fiction industry. In the process of translation and mediation, it should pay attention to and foster local Chinese publishing houses and science fiction culture companies, and reward all kinds of overseas promoters engaged in translation, publishing, criticism, and research work. Only if the literary, translation and publishing communities form a synergy, can Chinese science fiction stand in the world's forest of science fiction.

===Abstract===
In the globalization pattern of cultural pluralism and coexistence, it is the top priority of cultural construction and reform to enhance the global influence of Chinese culture and spread and promote Chinese culture to the world. It is our goal to promote Chinese culture to go global, and the translation of Chinese literature into foreign languages is an important means to achieve this goal. However, this process is not always smooth, and as the process of "going global" in China is hindered, people gradually realize that many factors other than the act of translation are affecting the "going global" of Chinese culture.

Mo Yan is a leading figure in contemporary Chinese literature, and after winning the Nobel Prize for Literature, the attention and sales of his works abroad have increased dramatically. At a time when translations of Chinese contemporary literature have repeatedly suffered setbacks, the successful translation of Mo Yan's novels has sounded the trumpet of victory. This paper analyzes the importance, current situation and reasons for the "going global" of contemporary literature with reference to Andre Lefevere's theory of "three elements" (patronage, ideology and poetics), and studies the successful translation of Mo Yan's masterpiece ''Red Sorghum'' overseas. The study of the successful translation of ''Red Sorghum'' overseas, and the exploration of the effective translation mode of contemporary literature in China, are hoping to contribute to Chinese contemporary literature's going global.

===Key words===
contemporary Chinese literature; transmission; ''Red Sorghum''

===Introduction===
With the further development of globalization, it is no longer a pure economic phenomenon. What accompanies economic globalization is political globalization and the exchange, collision and integration of "soft power" with cultural ideas, ideologies and values as its basic connotation across national borders. Culture is an important symbol of a country's soft power and plays an increasingly prominent role in the competition for comprehensive national power. The globalization of cultural communication has become a social reality that cannot be ignored. (Xu Wen 2013: 96) Different countries, nationalities and cultures want to communicate with each other, so that cultural communication can break through the original national boundaries and geographical restrictions, and eventually get out of the narrow and prejudiced national culture and gain recognition in the global scope.

The "going global" of Chinese culture has been elevated to a national strategic level, and the translation of contemporary Chinese literature, as an important carrier of culture, has assumed the primary task. However, it must be admitted that Chinese literature in general is still in a marginal position in the field of world literature. From the overall situation of translation and dissemination of Chinese contemporary literature, the problems of poor quality of translation, few number of publications, and low overseas acceptance are very prominent. According to statistics, during the nearly 110 years from the beginning of 1900s to the beginning of 2000s, China translated and introduced about 100,000 Western books, while the West introduced less than 500 Chinese books. In recent years, China has introduced about 150 American books in a year, while the United States has imported less than 10 Chinese literary works. (Bao Xiaoying 2015: 80) There is an obvious imbalance between the export and import of literature. Thus, it is clear that there is a long way to go for Chinese contemporary literature to "go global".

On October 11, 2012, Mo Yan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, becoming the first Chinese writer to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. Since then, the popularity of contemporary Chinese literature in the world literary scene has increased dramatically, more readers from abroad have begun to pay attention to the works of contemporary Chinese writers, and the attention of overseas academic circles has also begun to focus on Chinese literature. This has offered a good opportunity for Chinese contemporary literature to go global, and also put forward new ideas for the study of translation and dissemination of Chinese contemporary literature overseas.

Since 1988, Mo Yan’s works have been translated into English, French, Spanish, German, Swedish, Russian, Japanese and other languages. As Mo Yan’s masterpiece, ''Red Sorghum'' was earlier translated and introduced to other countries, and is also the most translated and reprinted Mo Yan’s work. At the same time, as the first novel to be translated overseas and immediately gain acclaim and access to Western commercial channels, ''Red Sorghum'' has set a model for the translation and transmission of contemporary Chinese literature.

This paper takes Howard Goldblatt's translation of ''Red Sorghum'' as a case study to examine the overseas transmission and acceptance of this translation on the basis of previous studies, so as to provide some inspiration for the transmission of contemporary Chinese literature. Due to the limitations of language, this paper will only talk about the translation and transmission of contemporary Chinese literature in English-speaking countries.

===The Importance of Contemporary Chinese Literature Going Global===
Culture has always been an important factor affecting national competitiveness. All major countries in the world have made the improvement of their culture an important national development strategy. Every country, nation and culture wants to exchange with each other, so that their culture can break through the original national boundaries and geographical restrictions and achieve a wider and deeper dissemination. At present, "Chinese literature going global" is flourishing, and the translation of Chinese literature has become an important part of spreading Chinese culture (Bao Xiaoying 2013: 62). Since the 21st century, China has devoted itself to the translation and interpretation of Chinese literature, and has launched a series of publication projects on the translation and dissemination of Chinese literature. At the same time, many journals of Chinese literature in English translation have been established to promote contemporary Chinese literature to the English-speaking world (Yu Hong 2021: 112).

Culture is an important symbol of a country's "soft power" and a symbol of its influence and cohesion. Culture as a soft power plays an increasingly prominent role in the competition for comprehensive national power. Culture has always been an important factor in national competitiveness. Having a strong "cultural soft power" means being able to win the initiative in the fierce international competition. Without cultural soft power, a country has no connotation, no support, and cannot become a real major country.

The strategy of "going global" of Chinese culture was first proposed in the mid-1990s. The "going global" strategy is a major initiative in the new stage of opening up to the outside world. Since then, the "going global" strategy has been expanded from the economic field to the cultural field, and relevant documents have been issued one after another.

Chinese culture "going global" has two basic meanings: First, it is the dissemination of Chinese cultural ideas and cultural forms to the world through cultural exchange. Second, it refers to the export of cultural products and services in international trade (Xiao Yingying 2012: 84). Compared with developed countries in the West, China has a serious "cognitive deficit" in cultural trade, from ideas, cultural symbols to cultural products, and many countries still have a fragmented, one-sided and superficial understanding of Chinese culture. China's economy is growing, but it is still in a weak position in terms of cultural soft power, such as cultural communication and influence, and cultural weakness, which can only be solved by developing cultural industries and communicating with other cultures (Bao Xiaoying 2014: 7).

Communication is the nature of culture, through which different cultures can be perceived. In today's globalization, cross-cultural communication affects people's thought and behavior from different aspects. Translation has always played a very important role in the process of intercultural communication. Translation is not only the conversion of language, but also the transmission of culture. Translation can spread new ideas, new concepts and new technologies, promote cultural exchange and progress, as well as promoting the common development of different cultures. Throughout the history of Chinese and foreign cultures, it is evident that translation has played a great role in spreading cultures in the world. Translation has greatly enriched the exchange and dissemination of Chinese and foreign ideas.

Above all, translation bridges the language barrier between different cultural societies, contributes to the exchange and interaction of cultural information with other countries, facilitates the common development of national cultures, and promotes the sharing of human civilization. "The development within a country and the establishment of its international status depend largely on cultural soft power, and cultural soft power, whether imported or exported, is, in our opinion, first and foremost a translation issue." (Xu Jun 2012: 12) The current strategy of "going global" of Chinese culture advocated by the Chinese government is, in a small way, to export our "cultural soft power" through the power of "translation", and in a larger way, to enhance China's "international status" (Hu Anjiang 2012: 56).

The translation, publication and dissemination of Chinese literature have become an important part of China's cultural outreach. The world needs to observe China through Chinese literature, and China needs to show its true image through literature. Without the role of translation as a medium and without the outreach of translated texts, the outreach of Chinese culture will only be empty talk. It has always been the goal of the country to promote the "going global" of Chinese culture through the translation of Chinese classics (Bao Xiaoying 2013: 54).

===Transmission of Contemporary Chinese Literature in English-speaking Countries===
The history of contemporary Chinese literature in English-speaking countries can be roughly divided into four stages: the “Seventeen Years” (1949-1965) at the beginning of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the “Cultural Revolution”(1966-1976), the new period (1977-1999) and the new century (2000-present) (Wan Yu 2021: 220).

In the first stage, China had fewer exchanges with English-speaking countries due to political-ideological conflicts. As a result, relatively few foreign-led publications of contemporary Chinese literature were published during this phase. In the first stage, contemporary Chinese literature translated to English-speaking countries focused more on social and political aspects than on literary aspects.

In the second stage, due to the influence of the Cultural Revolution, the translation activities of Chinese literature dominated by China decreased. Compared with the first stage, except for the selection of materials that glorified the revolution and took the working and peasant classes as the main characters in the early period of the founding of the PRC, the domestic publishing institutions were more strict about the themes of translated works during the Cultural Revolution. During this period, more works related to revolution and reflecting class struggle came to the English-speaking countries.

In the third stage, with the gradual liberation of thought, “scar literature”, the most popular literary theme after the Cultural Revolution, received domestic and international attention and became the focus of translation in the late 1970s and early 1980s. However, it gradually declined in the late 1980s. The official translation focus in China shifted first, and some works of the pioneering writers were translated to the English-speaking world earlier than the European and American editors. However, domestic translation and publishing institutions didn't pay much attention to writers such as Yu Hua and Su Tong, who were of great interest to the English-speaking world. Meanwhile, the proportion of works by Hong Kong and Taiwan has increased in the translation of contemporary Chinese literature under the domination of the West and China, and the translation of contemporary Chinese women writers has also reached a peak.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, the translation of contemporary Chinese literature has gradually become prosperous, and the mode of translation in China has also undergone significant changes. There are two major changes in the official-led mode of Chinese literature translation and introduction at this stage: first, in terms of translation selection, the translated works are more literary than publicity; second, in terms of publication, more attention is paid to the commerciality of the translated works, focusing on exchanges and cooperation with overseas booksellers and markets. The English-speaking world, Hong Kong and Taiwan have also become more diversified in their translations of contemporary Chinese literature, beginning to focus on popular literature, new literary forms and new writers.

Since Mo Yan was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, a large amount of Chinese literature, represented by his works, has been translated into the United States and other parts of the world. However, data show that translated works account for only 3% of the total number of publications in the United States, of which less than 1% are literary translations, indicating that the American public does not have an urgent and strong intrinsic need for foreign literature and culture (Xie Tianzhen 2019: 95).

===The Successful Transmission of ''Red Sorghum''===
'''Brief Introduction to ''Red Sorghum'''''

''Red Sorghum'' is a long novel written by Mo Yan, divided into five chapters: ''Red Sorghum'', ''Sorghum Wine'', ''Dog Ways'', ''Sorghum Funeral'', and ''Strange Death''. The five chapters were first published as novellas, of which ''Red Sorghum'' was first published in ''People’s Literature'' in 1986.

''Red Sorghum'' is a family saga of Yu Zhan-ao and Dai Fenglian(identified as Granddad and Grandma from a boy’s perspective), covering their romance, their spontaneous resistance against the Japanese invaders between 1939 and 1941. This novel is set in the fields of dense, tall, red sorghum plants in Northeast Gaomi Township, Shandong Province, China, hence the title ''Red Sorghum''. ''Red Sorghum'' is a classic work that shows the tenacity and national spirits of the Gaomi people in the Anti-Japanese war.

'''Translation and Transmission of ''Red Sorghum'''''

In 1988, Mo Yan’s work ''Dry River'' was first translated and published in Japan, and in 1999, a total of 54 foreign translations of Mo Yan’s works were published during the 11 years, focusing on three works: ''Red Sorghum'', ''Red Sorghum'' and ''The Garlic Ballads''. A total of 30 overseas publications of ''Red Sorghum'' and ''Red Sorghum'' accounted for nearly 60% of the total overseas publications of Mo Yan’s works during this period.

As Mo Yan’s masterpiece, ''Red Sorghum'' was earlier translated and introduced to other countries, and is also the most translated and reprinted Mo Yan’s work. Compared to most Chinese literary works that do not sell well overseas, the sales of ''Red Sorghum'' are more optimistic. According to scholar Bao Xiaoying’s statistics, the English version of ''Red Sorghum'' was published in 1993 and sold more than 50,000 copies in a dozen years, which is not bad sales.

A very important indicator of the reach of a Chinese work of literature in the United States is the number of U.S. libraries that collect the work. If the number of U.S. libraries collecting the work is high, it means that the work is widely distributed in the United States, and vice versa (Liu Guozhi, Chi Changhai. Li Qingliu 2022: 60).

According to the table of the top 10 ranking of the dissemination of English-translated Chinese contemporary novels published in the United States, it can be seen that the English-translated novel ''Red Sorghum'' ranks third overall among the Chinese contemporary novels published and disseminated in the United States. It can be said that ''Red Sorghum'' is the most widely distributed Chinese contemporary novel in the United States. Table 2 shows the collections of public and community libraries and libraries of universities and research institutions in different states. It also shows the ranking and distribution of the top ten states in the United States for the distribution of the novel ''Red Sorghum'' in English translation. Six of the top ten states have more than 40% of the public and community libraries collecting ''Red Sorghum'': 50% in Ohio, 49.23% in Illinois, 48.92% in California, 43.90% in Florida, 43.24% in North Carolina, and 41.27% in Texas, with Ohio accounting for half of the public and community libraries. . These data indicate that the Chinese contemporary novel ''Red Sorghum'' has entered public and community libraries in the U.S., showing that the structure of Chinese contemporary fiction distribution and readership in the U.S. is changing, shifting from its previous distribution primarily in universities and research institutions to the general public. (Two tables mentioned cannnot be uploaded)

'''The Reasons for ''Red Sorghum's'' Successful Transmission'''

The popularity of ''Red Sorghum'' overseas was made possible by many factors. The film of the same name is the pioneer. Thanks to the award-winning film, the translation and dissemination of the novel was promoted overseas. Coupled with the unique perspective and content of the work itself, and the translator Howard Goldblatt’s promotion and personalized translation, the successful transmission of this work was achieved.

'''The Literary Value of the Work Itself'''

Mo Yan, born in 1956 in Gaomi County, Shandong Province. ''Red Sorghum'' is based on the life of his hometown during the anti-Japanese war. Unlike other anti-Japanese literature, Mo Yan's anti-Japanese story is told from the perspective of ordinary people, which is more real and deeper. Mo Yan's literary works often portray original life with bold, mischievous depictions that resonate strongly with readers and shock them. In this novel, there is both questioning and rebellion against existing traditional values, as well as profound analysis of feudal ethics and human nature.

The theme of ''Red Sorghum'' is not only to promote the idea of living a bold, emancipated and frank life, but also to celebrate the patriotic spirit of the heroic resistance to Japan. The so-called "personality liberation" refers to the liberation of the "human" personality. Human being" is the unity of "spirit" and "flesh", "divinity" and "bestiality", "spirit" and "matter", "social man" and "natural man". Man has a "natural human nature", that is "human's" survival instincts and natural desires.

The novel ''Red Sorghum'' not only promotes the liberation of individuality, but also celebrates the tenacity and sacrificial spirit of anti-Japanese patriotism. This dual theme of enlightenment and salvation in literature is an inheritance of the May Fourth tradition. Both the May Fourth movement and the New Culture Movement happened at a time of increasing imperialist aggression against China and a sense of national crisis and the increasingly urgent historical requirement for national self-improvement, self-reliance and salvation.

'''The Pioneering Role of the Film ''Red Sorghum'''''

In today's era of new media, for many readers, they first come to the original work through an adaptation of the work, such as a film or television production. In other words, these readers get to know a literary work or a writer through a film or television work (Hao Dan 2019: 58). In fact, this is how foreign publishers and readers come to know Mo Yan and his ''Red Sorghum''. In 1988, the movie ''Red Sorghum'' directed by Zhang Yimou was released in Canada, the United States and other places. It is worth noting that not only the movie is adapted from Mo Yan's novel ''Red Sorghum'', but its screenwriting team also includes Mo Yan himself. In 1986, when Zhang Yimou decided to make the movie, Mo Yan only received 800 yuan in royalties and 1200 yuan in screenwriting fees. He would not have imagined that in the fifth year after the film's release (1993), the English translation of ''Red Sorghum'' would be published by Penguin Publishing in the United States, with a first printing of 10,000 copies. The number of its first printing is not large, but it is very rare for a contemporary Chinese writer in the early 1990s to have such a publishing opportunity and achievement in the United States. In addition, in 2004, when the American Arcade Press published Mo Yan's another work Big Breasts and Wide Hips, the publisher still mentioned the film ''Red Sorghum'' in the recommendation, which shows the role of the film in the dissemination of Mo Yan's novel.

It can be said that the translation and publication of the English translation of ''Red Sorghum'' is mainly based on the impressive international achievements of the film: in 1988, the film won the Golden Bear Award at the 38th Berlin International Film Festival, the Best Film Award, the Best Director Award, the True Novelty Award for feature films at the 5th Zimbabwe International Film Festival, the Film Critics Award at the 35th Sydney International Film Festival, the 1st Marseille International Film Festival in Morocco, and the Golden Bear Award for the Best Film at the 16th Brussels International Film Festival. In 1989, the film won the Best Film Award from the Radio Audience Jury at the 16th Brussels International Film Festival and the Silver Bear Award at the 5th Montreal World Film Festival in France; in 1990, the film was nominated for the annual prize of the GDR Filmmaker's Association for the ten best feature films of the annual Cuban Film Distribution Awards. Shortly after the film won the awards, Viking Penguin Press took the initiative to invite Howard Goldblatt to translate Mo Yan's ''Red Sorghum''. Of course, the translation of Mo Yan's work into English did not begin with ''Red Sorghum'', but prior to the award-winning film ''Red Sorghum'', Mo Yan's work had never been published in a single volume by a publisher in the English-speaking world.

'''Howard Goldblatt's Translation and Promotion'''

When it comes to the transmission of ''Red Sorghum'' in the English-speaking world, the contribution of its translator, Howard Goldblatt, cannot be overlooked. Howard Goldblatt is a well-known American sinologist and translator who has a high level of attainment in the study of contemporary Chinese literature, and has translated a large number of Chinese literary works. He was born in 1939 in California, USA. Later, while attending the U.S. Naval Officer's School, he was sent to serve in Taipei. While serving, Howard Goldblatt learned Chinese and read books to kill time, and gradually fell in love with Chinese culture. After studying Chinese at the National Taiwan Normal University for about a year, his Chinese language skills improved greatly. Later, he entered San Francisco State University and systematically studied Chinese language and literature. Because of his love for Chinese language and literature, He worked as a Chinese language teacher for one year after graduating with his master's degree. In order to continue to improve his Chinese language, he entered the Department of East Asian Languages at Indiana University to pursue a PhD in Chinese literature. In 1984, with his active leadership and assistance, ''Modern Chinese Literature'', a scholarly journal devoted to Chinese literature, was launched, with Howard Goldblatt as editor-in-chief, giving readers in the English-speaking world the opportunity to read Chinese literature, which contributed greatly to the promotion of Chinese literature.

As a confidant of Chinese literature, Howard Goldblatt has never stopped studying and translating Chinese literature for more than thirty years. His profound knowledge of both Chinese and English, good knowledge of Chinese literature, keen literary insight, and excellent translation skills have contributed to the achievement of Mo Yan, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature, as well as to the dissemination of Chinese literature in the world and to the equal dialogue with world literature.

After Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize, almost everyone said that it was the translator Howard Goldblatt who made Mo Yan a success, and this is not an exaggeration. In terms of the text itself, there are two conditions for a work of contemporary Chinese literature to get the attention of publishers in English-speaking countries: one is a good story, and another is an authentic translation. A well-told story is a response to the cultural psychology and reading habits of the target readers. A good translation is very important in the translation of Mo Yan's works, because most of Mo Yan's novels have a unique Chinese historical background and profound Chinese traditional cultural connotation. Although he is known to the world literary world as a "storyteller", if the translator fails to translate the Chinese history and culture implied behind the Chinese language as effectively as possible into a language that can be understood by English-speaking readers, the transmission and popularity of these works will be difficult to achieve.

'''The Role of Publishing Brokers and Houses'''

For the works of Chinese writers to spread overseas, they must be supported and promoted by authoritative publishing brokers and publishing companies. The reason why Mo Yan's ''Red Sorghum'' is so popular in English-speaking countries is the support of his publishing agent team and Arcade Publishing.

Beijing Genuine&Profound Culture Media Co.,LTD.(hereinafter referred to as "Genuine&Profound") actually plays the role of a copyright agent for Mo Yan's works, responsible for developing the value of Mo Yan's works and planning the publication and distribution of Mo Yan's works. As the book publishing industry becomes more open and free, contemporary Chinese writers have had more knowledge of the publishing market, and some of them have realized the importance of publishing agents. A publishing agent, often called a copyright agent, is a middleman or intermediary that connects a work with a publisher. A publishing agent signs a copyright agency contract with a writer, and then helps the writer find a publishing platform for the work or an opportunity to exploit subsidiary rights related to the work. The services of a publishing agent are what Genuine&Profound provides for Mo Yan.

The uniqueness of Genuine&Profound lies in the fact that it has proposed the business model of "360°celebrity brokerage" for the first time in the industry. This service includes paper book publishing, digital rights management and promotion, promotion of film and television rights of literary works, brokerage of famous artists' artworks, promotion of famous artists' business and social activities, provision of artwork trading platforms, development and sales of derivatives, and legal protection of rights. With respect to Mo Yan's works, it believes that the value of Mo Yan is not only reflected in the publication and distribution of his Chinese works, but also in the overseas publication rights of paper books, film and television adaptation rights, digital publication rights, sales rights of calligraphy works and other subsidiary rights related to them.

The man behind Arcade Publishing, which has published five titles of Mo Yan's works in English translation, is in fact Richard Seaver, Mo Yan's most important advisor in the American publishing world. Arcade Publishing was established by Richard Seaver in 1988 to publish fiction and non-fiction literature. After Richard's death in 2009, Arcade went bankrupt and was acquired by Pegasus Publishing in July of the following year, and relaunched in 2011 under the name Pegasus, with its main focus remaining the same and the addition of some art books (Hao Dan 2019: 59). Today, Arcade Publishing has published nearly 300 authors from over 30 countries. Arcade Publishing has always been a great admirer of Mo Yan's works, and the front page of Arcade's official website has for quite some time read: Arcade and Skyhorse congratulate Mo Yan on winning the 2012 Nobel Prize for Literature". Unfortunately, Richard passed away without waiting for Mo Yan to win the Nobel Prize, but his remarkable vision and solidity as a publisher have made him immortal.

===Conclusion===
Literary works that "go global" should have both universal and heterogeneous qualities in themselves. Universality can resonate with overseas authors, while the unique local characteristics of the works excite readers' interest (Zhang Lijun, Yu Huijun 2021: 92).

Another important factor in the success of Mo Yan's overseas distribution was mentioned earlier: the overseas influence of Zhang Yimou's film. The huge market for films often plays an excellent role in advertising and rapidly promotes the translation and publication of original literary works overseas. The spread and influence of contemporary Chinese literature and Chinese films overseas actually help each other. On the one hand, this shows that outstanding literary scripts are an important basis for the success of films; on the other hand, it also shows that successful film operations will produce a chain effect that can lead to a series of related cultural industries.

In addition, in the process of Chinese literature going global the selection of translation subjects is crucial. Local translators in China do not know enough about the reading habits of Western readers and lack in-depth research on the literary publishing market, so the dissemination of works translated by them is inevitably hindered abroad. In contrast, foreign sinologists have the unique advantage of being the ideal translators for Chinese literature to go global. Local Chinese translators are more likely to perceive Chinese characteristics and outstanding literary works, while the group of sinologists has a deeper understanding of the target language readership and dissemination. The advantages of both complement each other, thus promoting Chinese literature to go out better.

In addition, nowadays, in the context of globalization, it is also very important to establish a good relationship with foreign well-known publishing institutions. ''Red Sorghum'' was released by a well-known foreign publisher, so that it could be more widely known by its target readers. The most important thing is that major publishers can get a good understanding of the market, which is conducive to the dissemination of Chinese literature in the West.

The experience of the successful dissemination of ''Red Sorghum'' shows that for contemporary Chinese literature to go global, not only is there a requirement for the quality and cultural value of the work itself, but there is also a need for reliable translators and authoritative publishing partners.

<center>'''A study of Howard Goldblatt's Translation: Life and Death are Wearing Me Out as an Example'''</center>

<center>Li Siyuan</center>

===Abstract===

The translator of Mo Yan, a contemporary Chinese novelist, was instrumental in helping his works spread abroad and winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2012. With the improvement of the translator's subjective status and the frequent awards of Howard Goldblatt 's translations, the academic circles have attached great importance to the display of the translator's subjectivity in Howard Goldblatt's translations in recent years. This paper focuses on the figurative rhetoric in the book, through the establishment of a parallel corpus[?], combined with the examples in the English translation of Goldblatt, to explore the translation method of the figurative rhetoric in the English translation of the work.

===Key words===

Life and Death are Wearing Me Out; translation strategy; Howard Goldblatt

===Introduction===
In today's world, cultural exchanges between different countries and regions show a new trend, and language differences no longer become the barrier of cultural exchanges among countries. Since entering the new era, there have been a large number of excellent Chinese literary works that have been skillfully translated by translators to show a thriving posture. Howard Goldblatt (1939 --), a famous American Sinologist, is one of the most important translators. Goldblatt and his translation have attracted much attention in the translation field and aroused heated discussion from all walks of life.
Goldblatt is the most active and accomplished translator in translating modern and contemporary Chinese literary works into English (刘再复, 1999:22). He has translated more than 60 Chinese works of Chinese writers, making great contributions to the introduction of Chinese literature into the world and the attention of the West. Goldblatt is also a translator who is good at systematic operation. He not only considers the factors of the text, but also considers the readers' acceptance and the receiving environment
Multi-factors (魏泓，赵志刚, 2015：110). Goldblatt's translation of Mo Yan's literary works is particularly notable among his many translation works.
Mo Yan, a contemporary Chinese writer, won the Nobel Prize for Literature in October 2012. In his works, ghost stories and strange anecdotes emerge in an endless stream, with "unrestrained" style creation, full of imagination, especially a variety of metaphors, add a lot of vitality and vitality to his works, but also reflect mo Yan's unique personal experience. The reason why Mo Yan won the prize is not only because of his profound literary foundation, but also because of the accurate and exquisite translation of his works by many translators. Goldblatt is regarded as "the official translator of The English version of Mo Yan's works" (张继光,张政，2015：102), and it is with his translation that Mo Yan has such a great influence in the West.
Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out is one of Mo Yan's representative works. The novel is full of magic color, and the transformation of a large number of metaphors has become mo Yan's excellent means to lay out plots and depict characters, bringing readers extraordinary wonderful experience and creating mo Yan's imaginative world. Goldblatt uses various translation strategies flexibly in the English version of Life and Death are Wearing Me out, giving full play to his own subjectivity and arousing the interest of foreign readers. This paper focuses on the translation of metaphors in Life and Death are Wearing Me out from the perspective of the translator's subjectivity.

===Literature Review===
As Mo Yan's novels have achieved such a high achievement in the world literary circle, we should not only admire them, but also think about how Chinese literature can truly go global. There is no doubt that this is closely related to the translator. Goldblatt, as the official translator of Mo Yan's novels, has made outstanding contributions to the introduction of Chinese literature to the world. Therefore, studying the author's translation strategy can undoubtedly provide ideas and inspirations for other translators. In the field of literary translation, "faithfulness" and "treason" have always been a controversial topic. It was not until the creation of the concept of "creative treason" that the dispute was settled. "Creative treason" leads people to focus on "culture". Chinese scholar Professor Xie Tiantizhen agrees with the concept of "creative treason" and gives a systematic and comprehensive explanation of it in his book Translation and Introduction. Professor Xie points out that the concept of "creative treason" especially captures the soul of literary translation (Xie Tiantizhen, 2012:33).
"Creative treason" emphasizes that translated literature cannot be equated with literature, which confirms the important contribution of translators to re-creation. From the late 1980s to the early 1990s, western translation studies conducted a study of cultural turn, and completed the cultural turn in the late 1990s. In literary translation, Ezra Pound (1885-1972), a famous American poet and translator, proposed the concept of "translatability of history" and the principle that "a translated work is a new work" (Zhao Lina, Zou Degang, 2012:58).
However, For nearly a century, "faithfulness" has occupied an absolute position in translation. The ancient Chinese translator Zhi Qian (about the 3rd century) and other scholars believe that "The only important thing is convening the original meaning." and emphasize that under this principle, translation should convey the meaning of the original text without adding any other modifications (Wang Fumei, 2011:79). In the late Qing Dynasty, Ma Jianzhong (1845-1900), a Chinese diplomat and scholar, proposed "good translation", that is, a translation that accurately conveys the verve of the original text on the basis of ascertaining the meaning of the original text is "good translation" (Gu Weixing, 2007:82).
To sum up, "treason" and "faithfulness" seem to be a pair of contradictions, and there is no absolute good or bad. In the unexpected new language environment, "treason", but not a random one, can reflect the connotation, that is, to express the essence of the original text "faithfully" and the intention of the original author is the key. The advent of "creative treason" is a very valuable concept in the field of translation and provides a new way out of the translator's dilemma.

===Methods and Theories===
Hans J. Vermeer is one of the founders of the functionalist Skopos theory of translation, and he proposed the famous Skopos Theory of translation. Skopos theory holds that translators should follow the principle of purpose, coherence and fidelity in the process of translation. Literary translation is different from text translation of other paradigms. The principle of purpose requires literary translation to convey the emotion and meaning of literary works based on the aesthetic characteristics of literature itself and the characteristics of literary genre. The coherence principle requires that literary translation should focus on the comprehension and acceptability of the target language readers. The fidelity principle requires literary translation to give consideration to the translation of cultural images in the process of translation. "Life and Death are Wearing Me Out" is 550, 000 words long, and genre, plot, language and perspective are all crucial. As Mo Yan said in his Nobel speech, "he considers himself just a storyteller". Only by following the three principles of Skopos theory can the essence of storytelling be preserved in translation. Skopos means "purpose, objective, intention, function" in Greek. According to the theory, the primary principle determining any translation process is the purpose of the whole translation action.According to Vermeer's theory, "Translation is a comparison of cultures. Due to the close relationship between language and culture, translation between two languages is faced with a thorny problem: how to translate culture, especially culture-loaded words in literary works bearing cultural factors? In fact, translators are the decision-makers in choosing translation strategies,As a matter of fact, the translator is the decision maker in choosing translation strategies so as to transfer the cultural connotation of translation from the original to the target text. Most translators use cultural knowledge to understand source cultural phenomena." In other words, the translator should meet the needs of the target readers to the greatest extent.Through text analysis, we can learn from the translator's translation of many "difficult problems" to deal with the ingenuity of translation. As far as Goldblatt's translation is concerned, on the whole, the translator adopts the strategy of foreignization in the relevant content of Chinese traditional culture. But the translator has not completely given up the subject status of the translator. In the part where translators think it is necessary to consider the original author, translator and reader, domestication strategy is also adopted appropriately.

===An introduction to the translator's subjectivity===
Traditional translation theories tend to explore the linguistic aspects of the target text, emphasizing to minimize the translator's influence on the target text so that the target text can faithfully convey all the information of the source text, while the subject factor of the translator has not received enough attention. Since the 1960s, with the "cultural turn", translators' dominant position has been gradually recognized and respected, and the passive situation that translators have long been regarded as "translation machines" has been improved. The translator's subjectivity in the process of translation is a creative process that requires a great deal of energy, just like the craftsman polishing the original stone into jade. In this process, the translator's subjectivity manifests itself in the cultural purpose of translation, the choice of translated texts, the translation strategies, the understanding and interpretation of the work and the artistic re-creation of the language level of the work. But the process of translation by social cultural concept, the level of language, cultural framework and model, readers accept and look forward to the restriction of subjective and objective factors such as the aesthetic, so the translator must put herself in the era of big cultural background, jump out of previous translations for understanding of the language words and the conversion of two languages barriers, play the role of translation culture communication between the two countries. Life and Death are Wearing Me Out, as the representative work of Mo Yan, the first Nobel Prize winner in Literature, contains many culture-loaded words with strong national characteristics. Such unique cultural characteristics will cause obstacles in translation due to the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, so translators need to understand the culture behind the source language. Eugene A. Nida, An American linguist, translator and translation theorist, In The Theory and Practice of Translation, 1914-2011) divides cultural factors into Ecological Culture and Material Culture There are five categories of Culture, Social Culture, Religious Culture and Linguistic Culture（Nida: 2004).

===Cultural transmission in translation===
As a translator, Goldblatt is familiar with western culture and readers' preferences, and has a great deal of experience in translating Chinese literature, so he has made great efforts to overcome cultural barriers and promote the spread of Chinese culture to the West.Ecological culture refers to all the activities and achievements of human beings in protecting the ecological environment and pursuing ecological balance in their practical activities, as well as the values and ways of thinking that people form in the process of communicating with nature. Ecological culture has a profound influence on all ethnic groups, especially national customs and habits will have their own characteristics. If the translator does not understand the foreign cultural background, it can be said that the translation of ecological culture is full of thorns.
例1.原文:去时他们徒步, 回来时却乘坐着一台洛阳造“东方红”牌链轨拖拉机。拖拉机马力巨大, 本来是用来牵引犁铧犁地或是牵引收割机割麦的, 现在却成了县城红卫兵的交通工具。(Mo Yan,2012:164)
The original text presents the geographical ecological environment at that time, tractor was the main means of transportation.
译文:They went by foot but returned on an East Is Red caterpillar tractor made in the city of Luoyang. Given its high horsepower, it was intended for farm work-plowing and harvesting, but had been appropriated by Red Guards for transportation.(Goldblatt,2012:195)
The original text is translated one by one to show the original ecological scene.
例2.原文:方六大爷叮嘱他们:牛歇了一冬, 筋骨疲劳了, 第一天, 悠着点, 顺上套就行。(Mo Yan: 179)
The original text shows the backward means of production at that time, using cattle to plow the land.
译文:Those animals have rested all winter and aren’t in shape, Fang Liu said, so go easy on them the first day.(Goldblatt: 209)
译文对原文的生态意象进行对应。此处表现出在没有影响外国读者理解这种“生态文化”的前提下, “创造性叛逆”地将“牛”译为“animal”, 将“筋骨疲劳了”意译为“aren’t in shape”, 将“第一天, 悠着点, 顺上套就行”意译为“so go easy on them the first day”。
例3.原文:这里通风透气, 采光良好, 所有建筑材料都是环保型的, 绝对没有有害气体。(Mo Yan: 204)
The original text shows the good ecological environment at that time.
译文:They were airy, sunny, and constructed of environmentally appropriate materials that gave off no noxious fumes.(Goldblatt: 234)
译文采用意译的方法。译文中将“通风透气”“采光良好”用简单词汇“airy” (通风的) 和“sunny” (阳光充足的) 表达, 将“所有建筑材料都是环保型的”创造性地译为“constructed of environmentally appropriate materials” (由环保材料构成) 。
例4.原文:整个杏园猪场里弥漫着酒香, 金龙厚颜无耻地说这是他试验成功的糖化饲料的味道, 这样的饲料使用精料很少, 但营养价值奇高, 猪吃了不吵不闹, 不跑不跳, 只知道长膘睡觉。(Mo Yan: 231)
The text presents the ecological topics that farmers were concerned about at that time.
译文:The smell of alcohol in the air was unmistakable, but Jin Long brazenly announced that what they smelled was a newly perfected fermented feed.He told everyone that the new feed required very little high-quality ingredients, but the nutritional value was surprisingly high and kept the animals from acting up or running around.They ate, they slept, and they put on weight.(Goldblatt: 256)
　译文中将“整个杏园猪场里弥漫着酒香”译为“The smell of alcohol in the air was unmistakable”, 将“糖化饲料的味道”译为“a newly perfected fermented feed”, 将“这样的饲料使用精料很少”译为“the new feed required very little high-quality ingredients”, 将“猪吃了不吵不闹, 不跑不跳, 只知道长膘睡觉”译为“kept the animals from acting up or running around.They ate, they slept, and they put on weight”。译文采用翻译中的归化策略和意译的方法, “创造性叛逆”地进行很好的翻译。
Mo Yan took Gaomi County of Shandong Province as the creation background of Life and Death Are Wearing Me out. His work fully reflects the ecological environment of the junction of Jiaodong Peninsula and Shandong Province, where the climate is pleasant, the four seasons are distinct, the rainfall is concentrated, and the rain and heat are at the same time. Goldblatt handles the relationship between "faithfulness" and "treason" well, conveys the local flavor of the original and spreads the ecological culture of the original.

===A Study on Detailed Translation===
Material culture refers to material production, material life and its behavior and results, including labor tools, food, housing, clothing, clothing, daily utensils, etc. Material culture also plays an important role in the integration of Chinese civilization and world culture. Although a substance does not necessarily have its equivalent in different cultures, if it is "fumbled" or "fumbled", the original meaning of the text will be misinterpreted, which is not conducive to the communication between Chinese and Western cultures. Therefore, translation needs to strive for accuracy, to avoid misunderstandings among readers and affect cultural communication and exchange.
例5.原文:我们有三亩二分地, 有小公牛一头, 有木轮车一辆, 有一犋木犁、一把锄头、一张铁锨、两把镰刀、一把小镢头、一柄二齿钩子, 还有一口铁锅、四个饭碗、两个瓷盘、一个尿罐、一把菜刀、一把锅铲, 还有一盏煤油灯, 还有一块可以敲石取火的火镰。(Mo Yan: 103)
The original text presents the state of backward production tools and daily necessities at that time.
译文:We owned three-point-two acres of land, a young ox, a cart with wooden wheels, a wooden plow, a hoe, an iron shovel, two scythes, a little spade, a pitchfork with two tines, a wok, four rice bowls, two ceramic plates, a chamber pot, a cleaver, a spatula, a kerosene lamp, and a flint.(Goldblatt: 123)
Literal translation is adopted to maintain the cultural characteristics of the original text.
例6.原文:互助提着一桶饲料到达圈门。她戴着一片白色的遮胸巾, 巾上绣着“西门屯大队杏园养猪场”的鲜红字样。她还戴着两只白色套袖, 一顶白色软帽, 那样子很像糕点店里面的面案师傅。(Mo Yan: 199)
The original text presents the age and costume characteristics of material scarcity at that time.
译文:Hu Zhu walked up to the gate with a bucket of feed wearing a white apron with“Ximen Village Production Brigade Apricot Garden Pig Farm”embroidered in big red letters.She also had white protective sleeves covering her arms and a soft white cap on her head.She looked like a baker.(Goldblatt: 230)
　原文中“圈门”应该是“猪圈门” (sty, pigsty, hog-lot, hogcote, hogpen, pigpen) , 译文创造性叛逆地译为“gate”;译文将“遮胸巾”创造性地译为“apron”。译文注重服饰传神, 形象生动地再现原文的服饰文化。但出于对外国读者的考虑, 将“两只白色套袖”创造性地译为“white protective sleeves covering her arms”, 并与后面的“一顶白色软帽”“a soft white cap on her head”表达方式一致。
例7.原文:我的房子后边是一棵大杏树, 半个树冠笼罩在圈舍的上空。圈舍是敞开式的, 后檐长, 前檐短, 阳光可以无遮拦地照射进来。圈舍的地面全部用方砖铺就, 角落有洞, 洞上架铁箅子方便粪便流出。(Mo Yan: 204)
The original text presents the enclosure architecture and the ecology around the enclosure at that time.
译文:The canopy of an apricot tree at the rear shaded half my pen.I lived in a shed that was open in the front, where the eaves were short, and the rear, where the eaves were long, so there was nothing to keep the sunlight from streaming in.The floor was laid with bricks, and there was a hole in one wall, covered by an iron gate that made it easy for me to relieve myself without dirtying my quarters.(Goldblatt: 234)
译文对原文中“方砖 (square brick;square tile;quadrel;square stone) ”的形状省略, 用“brick”译出。将“洞上架铁箅子”创造性叛逆地译为“iron gate”。译文采用直译与创造性意译相结合, 保持原文的物质文化特色。
Life and Death are Wearing Me Out tells the story of the changes of Rural China from 1950 to 2000, and illustrates the eternal topic of farmers and land. Through "faithfulness" and "treason", the translation vividly reproduces the material things such as clothes, production tools and daily necessities of the original text.

===Translation Studies of Socio-cultural and Religious Cultures===
Social culture is the synthesis of people's values, thoughts, attitudes, moral norms, customs and social behaviors, etc. It is a specific culture that people living in a certain society will inevitably form over time. Therefore, excellent social and cultural translation can reflect the unique culture of the source country.
例8.原文:他们时而好得如同亲兄奶弟, 在酒馆里猜拳行令, 在发廊里玩弄野“鸡”, 在旅店里搓麻抽烟, 在广场上勾肩搭背, 如同四只用绳索连络在一起的螃蟹。(Mo Yan: 483)
译文:Some of the time they were like four loving brothers, drinking and gambling together in bars, dallying with wild“chicks”in hair salons, and playing mah-jongg and smoking, arms around each other, in the public square, like four crabs strung together.(Goldblatt: 479-480)
译文直译与意译相结合, 注重文化传递, 如将“亲兄奶弟”“猜拳行令”“勾肩搭背”创造性地意译为“loving brothers”“drinking and gambling”“arms around each other”;将“玩弄野‘鸡’”直译为“dallying with wild‘chicks’”。
例9.原文:他是有妇之夫, 你是黄花闺女。他这样做是不负责任, 是衣冠禽兽, 是害你。(Mo Yan: 426)
在汉语中“有妇之夫”和“有夫之妇”refer to those who have a family, “黄花闺女”refers to unmarried girls, sometimes virgins, “衣冠禽兽”refers to those who are merely human in appearance but behave like animals, and refer to those who are morally corrupt.
译文:He’s a married man, you’re a young maiden.That’s completely irresponsible of him, he’s a brute and he’s hurt you.(Goldblatt: 429)
Through literal translation and free translation, simple words are used to effectively convey the meaning of the original text. Chinese like "四言八句", such as "有妇之夫", "黄花闺女" and "衣冠禽兽", profound meaning; English likes to be concise. Therefore, the translation adopts the "domestication" translation strategy, which fully considers the reading comprehension of the target readers on the basis of directly and accurately conveying the original meaning.
Goldblatt is well versed in Chinese culture and has effectively helped foreign readers understand China's unique social culture through literal translation and free translation.
Religious culture refers to the culture formed by a nation's religious consciousness and belief and the influence of foreign religions (such as Christianity, Catholicism and Islam) on a country. Mo Yan's novel Life and Death are Wearing Me Out describes the transformation of Chinese society from 1950 to 2000 from the perspective of donkey, ox, pig, dog, monkey and big-headed baby through Simon's injustice and death to six reincarnation. Goldblatt's translation helps Chinese culture to enter the sight of foreign culture.

===Conclusion===
Goldblatt has translated and published more than 50 novels by more than 30 Chinese writers. His translations are well known overseas and he has become a translator of modern and contemporary Chinese literature, making remarkable contributions to the overseas dissemination of Chinese literature. In his translation practice, Goldblatt constantly explores the strategies between "faithfulness" and "creation", "faithfulness" and "treason". Goldblatt understands the cultural differences between Chinese and English, and on the basis of "faithfulness", he "recreates", emphasizing the receptiveness of the target language readers and exploring the true meaning of "creative treason". Goldblatt is the most English translator of Mo Yan's works. His "Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out" was recommended by The Washington Post as the world's best literary work, and Mo Yan won the first American "Newman Literary Award" for this work. It is worth mentioning that Goldblatt made some contributions for Mo Yan to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. The success of Goldblatt's translation is not only due to his profound English and Chinese language and literary foundation, but also due to the following factors: first, his love for Chinese literature; Second, a strong sense of responsibility to the translated readers. Of course, although Goldblatt has always been adhering to the principle of "faithfulness", there are still some problems in his translation, such as excessive "treason" and over-emphasis on the acceptability of readers. Therefore, the loss of Chinese cultural elements is worth discussing.Since the languages of different countries or nations are rooted in their unique cultures, literary translation can be understood as the mutual dissemination of cultures of different countries, nations and regions.The wide spread of Mo Yan's novels in the English-speaking world, to some extent, not only promotes traditional Chinese culture and contemporary Chinese culture, but also contributes to the increase of soft power of Chinese culture. The essence of cultural soft power is the influence of a value system on the world and the recognition degree of the world. In order to achieve the purpose of disseminating Chinese culture, Goldblatt retained Chinese cultural elements as much as possible by combining various translation strategies.

<center>'''On the Translation of ''The Border Town'' from the Perspective of Eco-Translatology—Taking Gladys' Edition as an Example'''</center>

<center>Li Ting</center>

===Abstract===
The novel ''The Border Town'' conveys the beauty of human nature through narration, and constructs an ecological system of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. The work is full of infinite charm, whether it is to reveal the true temperament of the people in hometown, or to depict the folk customs with strong vitality. For this kind of text, how to vividly reproduce the author's emotions and faithfully convey the cultural implication and landscape description of the original text is a challenge for translators.

''The Border Town'' mainly describes the scenery of Western Hunan, which is the window for the outside world to know western Hunan. This paper takes Gladys' edition as an Example. At that time, Gladys and her husband Yang Xianyi tried their best to convey the unique connotations of the original text to the readers. Under the premise of pursuing the truthfulness of the translation, the pragmatic degree of the translation was maximized to enhance the adaptability of the social dimension of the translation. Based on this, this paper chose Gladys & Yang couple's English edition to analyze, and combined with the theory of Eco-Translatology, from the dimension of language, culture, communicative dimensions to analyze the characteristics of the translation. This paper holds that the interpretation and analysis of ''The Border Town'' and its prose from the perspective of ecological translation will have different results.

===Key words===
''The Border Town''; Eco-Translatology; three-dimensional transformation

===Introduction===
''The Border Town'' is the representative work of Shen Congwen, a famous modern writer. The work is based on the background of Chatong in the 1930s, a border town on the border of Sichuan and Hunan, and the love story of Emerald, the granddaughter of the old boatman, and the two sons Tianbao and Nuosong of the wharf-master, as clues. It describes the Western Hunan unique local conditions and customs and the love tragedy of Emerald, praises the human nature of good and the purity of the mind. Shen Congwen's aesthetic ideal is also placed in the novel. Through depicting the pure love between men and women, the deep affection between grandparents and grandchildren, and the kind interaction between neighbors, the beauty of landscape, customs and human nature in the western Hunan world is highlighted. (Deng Gaofeng 2014, 120-123)

''The Border Town'' occupies a prominent position in the history of modern Chinese literature. In June 1999, ''Asia Weekly'' (《亚洲周刊》), a Hong Kong magazine, published ''a list of top 100 Chinese Novels of the 20th Century'', in which Lu Xun's collection ''Call to Arms''（呐喊） ranked first and Shen Congwen's novel ''The Border Town'' ranked second. However, in terms of a individual novel, ''The Border Town'' ranked first. (Deng Gaofeng 2014, 120-123)

As we all know, it is precisely because of the special literary status and significance of ''The Border Town'' that many scholars at home and abroad have been doing vigorous and enduring research on Shen Congwen and his ''The Border Town''. However, it is a pity that the translation studies of ''The Border Town'', especially its English translation studies, have not attracted enough attention, especially from scholars at home and abroad. Obviously, this situation does not conform to the current general trend of Chinese culture to the outside world, and does not conform to the national strategic direction of "Chinese culture going out". In view of this, it is very necessary to study the English translation of ''The Border Town''. (Deng Gaofeng 2014, 120-123)

This paper consists of four parts: The first part is a literature review, which briefly introduces the different perspectives of the translation of ''The Border Town'' and the analysis of the translation by different scholars. The second part presents the theoretical framework, which explains the basic theories of ecological translation, including three-dimensional transformation and the concept of the degree of holistic adaptation and selection. The third part is case analysis. This chapter will analyze several typical cases from the perspective of "three-dimensional transformation" to illustrate the application of ecological translation theory in the Gladys' English translation of ''The Border Town''. The last part is the conclusion, which summarizes the research results.

===Literature Review===
As the most famous novel of Shen Congwen, ''The Border Town'' is a model of his idealism. It has been translated into many languages and published in more than 40 countries such as Japan, the United States, Britain and the former Soviet Union, and has been selected into university textbooks in more than 10 countries or regions such as the United States and Japan.

Up to now, there have been four English translations of Shen Congwen's representative work ''The Border Town'' (1934), which is a rare phenomenon in the history of foreign translation of modern Chinese literature. The first translation ''Green Jade and Green Jade'' (literally translated as Cui Cui) is co-translated by Emily Hahn (项美丽) (1905-1997), an American writer and translator, and Shao Xunmei (邵洵美) (1906-1968, pen name Shing Mo-lei). It was serialized in ''Tien Hsia Monthly'' (《天下月刊》) in 1936. (Xie Jiangnan & Liu Hongtao, 2015)

The second translation was co-translated and edited by Chingti (金堤)& RobertPayne (白英) and published by ''George Allen & Unwin'' in 1947 as ''The Frontier City''. The translator, Chingti is Chinese, while RobertPayne is a British poet, war correspondent and reportage writer. RobertPayne came to China in December 1941 and left China in August 1946 for about five years. He came to Kunming in early September 1943 and was later employed by the Southwest Associated University (西南联大) as a professor to teach English literature. During this period, he cooperated with Chingti (a student of the Southwest Associated University) to translate a collection of Shen Congwen's stories entitled ''Chinese Land'' (中国土地), which included many of Shen Congwen's novels. (Deng Gaofeng 2014, 120-123)
The third translation ''The Border Town and Other Stories'' (《边城及其他》) is a combined translation by Yang Xianyi and Gladys Yang, a couple of great translators in China. In 1981, Gladys Yang translated Shen Congwen's collection of ''The Border Town and Other Stories''. Later, This collection was listed in Panda Books, then published by ''Chinese Literature Magazine'' (Xie Jiangnan & Liu Hongtao, 2015)

The fourth translation is by American scholar Jeffrey C. Kinley, published in 2009 by ''Harper Collins Publishers of New York''. This is the first separate edition of the English translation of Shen Congwen's works. Translator Kinley is a professor of history at St. Johns University (圣若望大学), a doctor of Harvard University, a famous Historian and Sinologist in the United States, as well as an expert on Shen Congwen's literature. He once made seven trips to Hunan, visited Mr. Shen Congwen more than a dozen times, and wrote ''The Odyssey of Shen Congwen'' (《沈从文传记》), which was more than 300,000 words long. (Deng Gaofeng 2014, 120-123)

Shen Congwen and ''The Border Town'' have always been the subject of study by scholars at home and abroad. However, compared with the vigorous research on Shen Congwen and the Western Hunan culture by scholars at home and abroad, the research on the English version of ''The Border Town'' is very weak. Up to now, only 70 relevant research papers and journals can be retrieved by searching in CNKI for the English translation of Shen Congwen's works with the keywords of “English translation of ''The Border Town''”. If these 70 papers are classified according to the research angle, they can be roughly divided into the following three categories.

The first is the aesthetic study of translation. Qu Tianhua (2020,94-96) explored the English translation style of Gladys’ ''The Border Town'' from the perspective of translation aesthetics, while Feng Lei (2013) explored the artistic representation in Kinley's English translation of ''The Border Town'' from the perspective of translation aesthetics. Both articles deal with the aesthetics of literary translation. The second category focuses on the linguistic study of translation. Yan Hong and Dong Chunxiao (2018,122-123) discuss the translation of fuzzy language in the English translation of ''The Border Town'' from the perspective of fuzzy linguistics, and analyze and compare the different translation methods of fuzzy language in different situations. Deng Jie (2021,178-179) discusses the function of local language in literary works through case studies of two English translations of ''The Border Town'', and summarizes the different strategies and methods adopted by different translators in translating local language. The third category focuses on translation strategies. Xiang Rengdong (2019,91-95) interprets the translation of ''The Border Town'' by Gladys and Chingti & RobertPayne from the perspective of skopos theory in order to find out the reasons for its translation and the translation strategies adopted by the translators in different times. Wang Fang (2012) studied the English version of ''The Border Town'' by Gladys from the perspective of context, comparatively analyzed the translation of implicit cohesion in the original work, and summarized the translation methods of implicit cohesion. Tang Yi (2015) takes the thick translation in the English translation of ''The Border Town'' as a starting point to describe the characteristics of thick translation in Kinley's translation, indicating that the phenomenon of thick translation is widespread in ''The Border Town''. On the other hand, in the process of interpreting Kinley's thick translation, it has been proved the rationality of this translation strategy and the value of thick translation strategy for the English translation of ''The Border Town'' .

All in all, from the perspective of ecological translation to study the English translation of ''The Border Town'' is less, especially to Gladys’ edition, so this article has a certain sense, enriching the English study of ''The Border Town'' and giving people more inspirations.

===Methods and Theories===
In studying the English version of Gladys’ ''The Border Town'', this paper makes a case study from the perspective of ecological translatology. This chapter not only introduces the origin of Eco-Translatology, but also introduces some core concepts involved in Eco-Translatology.

'''1.The Origin of Eco-Translatology'''

Fang Mengzhi (2017:98) points out: "Due to the complexity of translation phenomenon, multidisciplinary research becomes inevitable. Multidisciplinary research emphasizes the unity and agreement of knowledge and requires the production of new knowledge that can help solve translation problems." Eco-Translatology is a translation theory proposed by Professor Hu Gengshen, who combines ecological thinking with translation theory and holds that translation is related to the biological world. Chen Feifei (2015) also believes that "Translation is the conversion between different languages, and a language represents the unique cultural connotation of a nation. Culture is the sum of material wealth and spiritual wealth deposited by human beings in the long-term social and historical development process. As a product of biological evolution, human beings are an important component of the biological world. Therefore, it can be seen that there is a chain of interlocking relations among translation, language, culture, human beings and the biological world, which presents the interconnected relationship between translation activities and the biological world.

Although ecological translation originated from the East, it also borrows from the Western theory of Darwinism. "Natural selection and survival of the fittest" and other Western concepts can be said to be the theoretical support of Eco-Translatology. "Translation is adaptation and selection" is also one of the core concepts of ecological translation, because translation practice inevitably involves the selection, deletion and reservation of the target language. However, the spirit behind it coincides with the concepts of "harmony between man and nature" and "moderate harmony" in Chinese philosophy. Therefore, if the seed of Eco-Translatology is Darwinism, the root and bud of it is adaptation and selection theory, the foundation is traditional Chinese ecological civilization, the main body is the macro, meso and micro theoretical system of Eco-Translatology, and the branches and leaves are the increasingly close platform for international translation research dialogue, and the fruit is an outstanding and plain discourse system of translation studies with unique and profound Chinese ecological wisdom and a combination of Chinese and Western academic standards. (Meng Fanjun 2019, 48-49)

'''2.Some Core Concepts'''

In general, ecological translation theory provides a new perspective for translation studies, and can be used for reference to the scientific principles and research methods of ecology to reanalyze translations and guide translation practice. There are many core concepts involved in ecological translation, and only a few important concepts relevant to this study are briefly introduced here.

'''2.1 Translation as Adaptation and Selection'''

The idea also stems from Darwin's theory of "natural selection and survival of the fittest". In fact, in translation practice, translators also need to constantly make choices to adapt to and conform to the target language culture or the requirements of sponsors. In the process of translation, translators need to modify the wording and style of the translation to meet the requirements of the current era, which also reflects the core concepts of adaptation and selection. The translator's adaptation to the target language environment is similar to that of human beings to the nature. Human beings can only better adapt to the environment and survive only by constantly and rationally changing themselves. The same is true for the translator. Both intralingual and extralingual factors must be adapted and selected, so that the translation can survive and last for a long time.

'''2.2 Three-dimensional Transformation'''

Eco-Translatology believes that translation is the translator's selection activity to transplant the text to adapt to the translation ecological environment. In the process of translation, the translator should not only consider the conversion between two words, but also consider the three aspects of language, culture and communication. Three-dimensional transformation is the transformation between language, culture, and communication. It was also mentioned that there is a close relationship between translation and language, culture, and human beings. This is the translation method proposed by Professor Hu Gengshen. That is to say, the translator takes the initiative in the translation process and converts between the three dimensions to ensure the accuracy of the translation. Next will be explained one by one.

The first is linguistic dimension, which means that translators need to make adaptive selection and transformation of source language forms, including the transformation of vocabulary, syntax, rhetoric, style and other aspects. In fact, this is an inevitable conversion in the process of translation. There are huge differences between Chinese and English in terms of vocabulary and sentence patterns. For example, Chinese tends to use four-character words, and most of them are subject-free sentences and run-on sentences, while English focuses on simplicity, strict sentence structure, and mostly is complex long sentences with complete subject and predicate; Chinese often uses verbs while English is more static and so on. Based on these differences, the translator must take into account the language habits of the target language to convert the source language form. (Liu Chaowu & Yao Mengyan 2021, 23-25)

Secondly, cultural dimension, that is, translators need to take into account the effective transmission of cultural connotations of different languages involved in translation. As Edward Hall (1976) said, "Every aspect of human life is influenced by culture". Therefore, the intralingual factors should be considered, and the extralingual factors should not be ignored. English and Chinese have different culture background, which leads to the different cultural imagery of the same meaning. Namely, the concept of lexical meaning is the same, but its connotation meaning and associative meaning is different. Such as the word "dog", Chinese commonly used in some derogatory collocation, such as "worse than pigs or dogs (猪狗不如)", "hired thug (狗腿子)" and so on, while the word in the English language is often commendatory. For example, “Love me love my dog (爱屋及乌)”. Therefore, translators must pay attention to the differences between Chinese and English cultural dimensions in translation, so as to translate an appropriate version of the original.

Finally, there is the communicative dimension, which means that translators should pay attention to the communicative intention of the source language and consider the context, then make adaptive choices for translation. Only by attaching importance to the communicative intention of the text can the content and form of the text be appropriate. (Liu Chaowu & Yao Mengyan 2021, 23-25)

'''2.3 The Degree of Holistic Adaptation and Selection（整体选择适应度）'''

The degree of holistic adaptation and selection is the evaluation standard of ecological translation set up by professor Hu Gengshen. It refers to the sum of the adaptability of the translator in the three dimensions of language, culture and communication when translating, taking into account other factors in the context. This evaluation criterion is influenced by three factors, namely the degree of multidimensional transformation, reader feedback and translator quality. The first degree of multidimensional transformation has been described previously and is skipped here. The second is reader feedback. Readers here are not only target language readers, but also experts, scholars, publishers, sponsors, critics and so on. To some extent, their feedback reflects the quality of the translation. The third is the quality of translators. It can be said that the translator's quality is the key factor affecting the quality of translation. The translator's qualities include bilingual ability, cross-cultural sensitivity, familiarity with the subject, background knowledge, translation experience, market insight and translation attitude. These aspects can control the quality of translation to some extent. (Chen Feifei, 2015)

The process of literary translation is the process of the translator's adaptation and selection. Translation should be carried out in the context of translation, and the different translation dimensions mentioned by ecological translation theory should be applied in the process of translation. Literary translation has high requirements for translators, who should be faithful, expressive and elegant when translating literary works. When translating literary works, translators should not only consider the faithfulness and expressiveness of the translation, but also consider the elegance of the translation, the language and cultural habits of the translation readers and the communication purpose of the translation. (c.f: Liao Peiyan 2020, 26-28)

===Case Study===
Eco-Translatology specifically expounds the function of adaptation and selection theory in interpreting translated texts, which mainly consists of four parts: first, the translation process, i.e. the alternating cycle of translator adaptation and translator selection; Second, translation principles, namely multi-dimensional selective adaptation and adaptive selection; The third is the translation method, namely "three-dimensional transformation" (linguistic dimension, communicative dimension and cultural dimension); The fourth is the evaluation criteria, that is, the degree of multidimensional transformation, reader feedback and translator quality. Therefore, this paper takes Gladys’ English translation of ''The Border Town'' as the research object and analyzes its translation features from the perspective of three-dimensional transformation. (Hu Gengshen, 2011)

'''1. Linguistic Dimension'''

The different characteristics of English and Chinese lead to the different ecological environment of translation. Translators must make adaptive choices in the translation of the language form of the source language, which usually occurs in vocabulary, syntax, rhetoric and other aspects. At this point, translators need to give full play to their subjective initiative and use such translation strategies as addition and combination. (c.f: Liu Chaowu & Yao Mengyan, 2021:23-25)

Example 1:

Source Language (SL)：小溪既为川湘来往孔道，限于财力不能搭桥，就安排头渡船。这渡船一次连人带马，约可以载二十位搭客了一只方头渡船。这渡船一次连人带马，约可以载二十位搭客过河，人数多时则反复来去。（Shen Congwen，2011）

Target Language (TL)：The water level fluctuates considerably, and while there is no money to build a ferry has been provided, a bridge which holds about twenty men and horses--more than that and it has to make a second trip. （Shen Congwen，2011）

The sentences in the original text are scattered into six sub-clauses. The translation connects the whole sentence through some conjunctions, such as “and”, “while”, “which” and “that”, and processes the second sentence of the original text into an attributive clause. Pronouns are used to replace nouns, so that the sentences before and after are connected more closely. At the same time, The translator in the first sentence uses liberal translation to translate “小溪既为川湘来往孔道” to “The water level fluctuates considerably”. Instead of mechanical translation and word-for-word translation in the original text, the translator uses flexible translation methods. This is precisely the linguistic dimension of Eco-Translatology. In terms of sentence pattern, the translator skillfully deals with sentence pattern in the process of translation, and processes the scattered Chinese sentences into a long English sentence. The linguistic dimension method of ecological translation requires the translator to adapt to the selection of language style and sentence pattern, sentence expression style. Therefore, it can be seen that Gladys translated ''The Border Town'' from the linguistic dimension of ecological translation. (c.f: Liao Peiyan 2020, 26-28)

Example 2:

SL：翠翠误会了邀他进屋里去那个人的好意，心里记着水手说的妇人丑事，她以为那男子就是要她上有女人唱歌的楼上去，本来从不骂人，这时正因等候祖父太久了，心中焦急得很，听人要她上去，以为欺侮了她，就轻轻的说：“悖时砍脑壳的！”（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL: Emerald's ears were still tingling from the boatmen's coarse talk so that she misunderstood this well-meant invitation and thought he wanted her to go to the building where a woman was singing. She had never flown out at anyone before, but now, troubled by her grandfather's long delay and afraid she was being insulted, she swore under her breath: “To hell with this hooligan! ”（Shen Congwen，2011）

"悖时砍脑壳的！" this sentence is an exclusive dialect cursing for the Western Hunan women. In the original text, the ecological environment describes Emerald waiting anxiously for her grandfather by the river, and the Second Master, Nuosong, invited her to come in when they saw her. However, Emerald thought she had been insulted and misunderstood the man's kindness, so she said this in a desperate manner, which also showed Emerald's simplicity and loveliness. If the translator does not understand the cultural connotation of this sentence, he will make a joke, which will make the target language readers do not understand, resulting in the ecological imbalance of the translation, leading to the failure of conversion. In order to make this cultural connotation "survive" in the translation ecology, the translator translated it into "To hell with this hooligan!" which is more familiar to Western readers, so as to realize the conversion of language dimension. (c.f: Shao Yanshu, 2019)

'''2. Cultural Dimension'''

Wang Zuoliang (1989), a famous Chinese translator, once said, "Translation is not only about language, but also about culture... The translator must be a man of culture in the true sense." Translation is the communication between two cultures. Only by being familiar with both cultures can translation play a role in its cultural context. In a sense, translation, as a social activity of human beings, not only transmits information, but also disseminates culture. Through the ages, people have different definitions of culture, but basically there is a consensus that culture is all the spiritual activities and activity products of human beings compared with politics and economy. Due to the different cultural backgrounds of English and Chinese, translators must consider the target readers in translation, fill in the cultural gaps and achieve the integration of the target readers and the original vision, so as to achieve a higher degree of holistic adaptation and selection. This paper involves a lot of culture-loaded words, and translators need to use annotation, explanation and other strategies to translate.

Example 3:

SL：贯串各个码头有一条河街，人家房子多一半着陆，一半在水，因为余地有限，那些房子莫不设有吊脚楼。（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL： On the frontage between the wharves space is so limited that most houses are built on stilts overhanging the water. （Shen Congwen，2011）

"吊脚楼" is a unique building in rural Western Hunan. People in other parts of China probably don't know what it is, let alone Western readers. Here, Gladys paraphrases it as "houses are built on stilts overhanging the water". By considering the overall translation environment, this not only preserves the uniqueness and cultural connotation of the word "吊脚楼", but also enables Western readers to know what it is.

Example 4:

SL：这是两年前的事。五月端阳，渡船头祖父找人作了代替，便带了黄狗同翠翠进城，到大河边去看划船。（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL： Two years before this, on the fifth of the fifth month, her grandfather found someone to mind the ferry while he took Brownie and Emerald into town to watch the dragon-boat race. （Shen Congwen，2011）

Of the original "端阳" the translator has processed it as "the fifth of the fifth month". Foreign readers do not understand the traditional Chinese festival, so they cannot use the Pinyin annotation method to translate it literally, so it is best to translate it as the present common translation name is "the Dragon Boat Festival", but considering the period of Gladys’ translation, the English translation name of the Dragon Boat Festival has not been determined, so it is acceptable for the translator to translate it as an interpretation. Then there is “划船”. If you translate it literally, foreign readers will mistake it for ordinary rowing, because there is no Dragon Boat Festival in foreign countries, so the concept of dragon boat racing is not in the minds of foreign readers. So here the translator treats it as "watch the dragon boat race." It plays the role of translation and dissemination of culture. When reading this translation, foreign readers can get a good understanding of Chinese traditional festivals and folk customs. This is the cultural dimension of ecological translation. In the translation process, the problem of cultural transmission must be properly handled. (c.f: Liao Peiyan 2022, 26-28)

Example 5:

SL：傩送美丽得很，茶峒船家人拙于赞扬这种美丽，只知道为他取出一个诨名为“岳云”。（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL： And Nuosong was such a fine-looking boy that the Chatong boatmen nicknamed him YueYun.（Shen Congwen，2011）

Note: Son of Yue Fei, a brave patriotic general of the Song Dynasty, who fought against invaders. Yue Yun is presented on the stage as a handsome and courageous young fighter.

When translating the word "岳云" with cultural connotation, the translator adopted the method of transliteration and annotation. Because foreign readers have no concept of the image of "岳云", the translator did not confuse foreign readers, then explained it out with annotation and filled the cultural gap.

'''3. Communicative Dimension'''

In order to transmit information effectively, translators need to pay more attention to the communicative intent of the original text when transforming the communicative dimension. Different from the linguistic dimension, the communicative dimension emphasizes the effect obtained by the translation rather than the content conveyed by the translation. Making adaptive choices in the translation of pronouns and conjunctions, translators can accurately convey the communicative intent and style of the original text. (c.f: Liu Chaowu & Yao Mengyan 2021, 23-25)

Example 6:

SL：女孩子的母亲，老船夫的独生女，十五年前同一个茶峒军人唱歌相熟后，很秘密的背着那忠厚爸爸发生了暧昧关系。（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL： The girl's mother, his only daughter, seventeen years ago had a love affair behind her father's back with a soldier at Chatong who serenaded her. （Shen Congwen，2011）

"暧昧关系" in Chinese refers to a vague and unclear relationship between a man and a woman without commitment. Shen Congwen used this very vague word to imply an implicit meaning, and the translator should not break this vague beauty. At the same time, through intensive reading of the original text, it can be found that the "暧昧关系" in the original text may also imply that the two have had a sexual relationship. Later, there is also a hint that they have a child, namely Emerald. Therefore, the "Love affair" used by the translator not only includes the relationship between men and women at different levels, but also does not lose the vague artistic conception of the original text.

Example 7:

SL：近水人家多在桃杏花里，春天时只需注意，凡有桃花处必有人家，凡有人家处必可沽酒。（Shen Congwen，2011）

TL： Most homesteads near the water are set among peach and apricot trees, so that in spring wherever there is blossom you can count on finding people, and wherever people are you can count on a drink. （Shen Congwen，2011）

Although this sentence in the original text is scattered, it also has its inherent logic. The translator uses a series of cohesive means, such as “so that” and “wherever” to connect the sentences before and after, and also directly translate the implied subject “you”. It is very in line with the expression habits of English, which not only conveys the meaning of the original text, but also realizes the communicative intention of the original text.

===Conclusion===
Eco-Translatology theory is to regard the process of translation as a whole. Translation is not a single process, but can also derive a series of translation strategies and translation methods. In order to produce a good translation, the translator must constantly adapt and select and comprehensively consider the problem in such a large environment. The three dimensions of language, culture and communication do not exist independently, but are parallel and interrelated. Translators need to adapt to the target language environment when translating, and try to keep the content and form, meaning and style consistent with the original text, so as to achieve a higher degree of holistic adaptation and selection. At the same time, it is of certain research significance to guide the English translation of Chinese prose with ecological translation theory, which can make the translator realize that when translating, not only should the language form of the translated text and the transmission of some cultural-loaded words be considered, but also the target reader's acceptance level should be paid attention to.

<center>'''The dissemination of Chinese Classics in modern media'''</center>

<center>Li Xin</center>

===Abstract===
With the advent of the new media era, there are both opportunities and challenges for the publication and dissemination of Chinese classics. The driving force of new media uses "Internet technology" as its core, and has reconstructed the consumption pattern of human society and culture. For such "heavyweight" publications as cultural classics, only by ways like "going out" and "cross-cultural communication" can they create greater economic, cultural and social benefits. Objectively, it is necessary to study the new forms and characteristics of Chinese classics publication and external dissemination from the new perspective of industry, to analyze new problems occurred during disseminating, and to study new strategies that can promote external dissemination, so as to expand the influence of Chinese classics in the world, and enhance the voice of Chinese culture in international exchanges.

===Key words===
new media; Chinese classics; communication and innovation

===Introduction===
Chinese traditional culture has a long history. It is a unique culture that reflects the characteristics and style of the nation and is brought together by the evolution of Chinese civilization. Due to the limitation of communication technology in different eras, the dissemination and inheritance of traditional culture show different characteristics. With the development of the times, we have entered the information age, and highly developed computer technology and network technology have become the most commonly used new information dissemination and storage tools. According to the 41st Statistical Report on Internet Development in China released by the China Internet Network Information Center, as of December 2017, the number of Internet users in this country reached 772 million, and the penetration rate reached 55.8%. Among them, 753 million Internet users use mobile phones to access the Internet, accounting for 97.5% of the online population. The high development of the Internet has given traditional culture a new carrier and mode of dissemination. It must adapt to the development of the times in order to obtain the best dissemination effect.

=== The dissemination of classics in the new media era===
With the development of network technology, the dissemination of traditional culture is undergoing an essential leap, and the forms of cultural dissemination have become rich and diverse. It is necessary to make good use of these new forms to help the dissemination of traditional culture. The following text will introduce several new forms of the dissemination of classics in the present era.

1) Digital storage of Chinese classics.
The inheritance of traditional culture requires the preservation and inheritance of books and documents. In the past, it was mainly recorded by means of paper books. However, with the rapid development of computer technology, digital databases have become the main place for document collection, storage, processing and dissemination. All documents can be converted into coded forms and stored in computers, and then classified, processed and managed by computers. Form a massive information base. At present, the most used databases is the "Basic Chinese Ancient Books Library", which is the largest and most complete collection of literature and classics in Chinese history. The digital storage of classics can help the preservation and inheritance of traditional culture. On the one hand, it can collect massive information, which is the continuation of traditional libraries. On the other hand, it has the function of quick search and query,providing a convenient platform for people learning history and culture.

2) Video communication of classics and cultural products.
Technological progress has also provided technical conditions for the inheritance and promotion of classics and cultural products. On the one hand, the digital and high-fidelity storage of some cultural products can be easily achieved through technical means. For example, the objects, art forms, and humanistic stories described in the classics can be filmed and recorded by people, and the text content can be videoized,and thoese videos could be made into DVDs and VCDs, in this way, cultural consumers can not only enjoy various stone carvings, paintings, writing, handicraft products, etc., which embody the wisdom of ancient people, but can also enjoy arts like dances, music and dramasthat inherit traditional Chinese culture.
On the other hand, with the maturity of live broadcast technology, webcasting, this new form of communication, has also become a booster for the inheritance and development of traditional culture. Real-time live broadcast can not only fully and truly display various traditional cultural products, but also stimulate the participation and enthusiasm of the audience, and achieve a good communication effect. For example, from June 4th to June 9th this year, the Museum of Prince Kung’s Mansion(恭王府博物馆) of the Ministry of Culture, together with a number of units, launched the 2018 “Splendid China—China’s Intangible Cultural Heritage Costume Show” series of activities, and actively cooperated with major online broadcasts platforms such as Qianfan Live（千帆直播）, KK Live（KK 直播）, Xiuse Live（秀色直播）, etc., and the number of hits of the online live broadcast in just the first three days has exceeded 28 million. In 2017, the Chinese intangible cultural heritage costumes show held in Prince Kung's Mansion
, there were more than 400 sets of clothing on display, with nearly 4,000 audiences, and more than 20 million viewers on various online platforms. The scope and effect of communication far exceeded the scene.
It can be said that the video transmission of traditional cultural works has made up for the regret that vocal music and performing arts cannot be reproduced, so that people can break through the shackles of space, stay at home, and enjoy those videos through the Internet or computer anytime and anywhere they want . It provides more convenient conditions for traditional culture‘s inheritance and development.

3) The circle spread of classics.
The progress of the Internet has made the communication between online people convenient and frequent, forming network groups one by one. When netizens consciously form a group because of a certain topic or event, there will be network circles of communication. Although it is said that the formation of network groups is random and free, cohesiveness is weak, and it lacks restraint, it is easy to dissolve, but it is extremely infectious. QQ groups, WeChat official accounts, WeChat groups, fixed boards on forums, etc., can all become fixed circles. On the Internet, there are many groups with classics as a common topic, such as classic novel groups, poetry and song groups, etc. The existence of these groups has also played a huge role in the spread of classics.

4) Interactive communication of computer networks.
One of the characteristics of network communication is its strong initiative. In the process of communication, there is interaction between the audience and the media, and between the audience and the audience. The audience can become both the receiver of information and the disseminator of information. Information can be obtained through the media, and information can be released through the media. This kind of interactive communication has brought new requirements to the communication of classics, that is, cultural communication needs to take into account the dual needs of the public and individuality, to satisfy both the interests of the public and the tastes of the minority, which makes the form of classics show unprecedented richness.
Taking "China in Classics" （电视节目《典籍里的中国》）as an example, the program sets up multiple stages to show the "historical space" in the classics and the "real space" outside the classics,in order to achieve the effect of time travel. In the historical space, the program adopts the filming technique of films and televisions, which vividly restores the stories of the classics and makes them more visualized. In addition, the programming division also joined forces with the National Theatre and the Chinese Academy of History to bring traditional classics to the screen through innovative methods. through sophisticated costume，make-up and props, high-level photography and post-production, omni-media presentation, and multi-platform promotion the programming division have reached a new high of audience rating, making people pay more attention in calssics. There are different scenes and stories on different stages, combined with a large number of authentic props and a huge high-definition electronic screen, so that the audience can watch the drama in 360 degrees, and it also enables the audience in front of the screen to feel the drama story more deeply, Increasing the audience's sense of substitution.

=== New features of the publication and dissemination of Chinese classics in the new media era===
In view of the "high context" positioning of Chinese culture in the media perspective, although China is a big country in the production of cultural classics, it has not yet reached the level of a powerful country in publishing and disseminating cultural classics.
In order to allow mankind to share the fruit of Chinese civilization, it is urgent to innovate the existing ways to publish and disseminate ancient books; the arrival of the new media era has provided new opportunities for the publishing and dissemination of Chinese classics, and the publication and dissemination have already been showing new characteristics.
1) The high-efficiency characteristics of publication and dissemination formed by new technologies
New technology has greatly improved the efficiency of publication and dissemination. On the one hand, for readers of classics, after the "print" has become "digital", Internet technology has let all kinds of calssics disseminate faster, and given calssics wider dissemination space. Converted into data and information storage, the heavy paper book of Comprehensive Mirror to Aid in Gover （《资治通鉴》） only requires a few megabytes of space, and readers can quickly obtain the required content through retrieval, saving a lot of time and energy, thereby improving the transmission efficiency.
On the other hand, for the producers of classic books, in the process of publications supported by new technologies, a large number of information about sales，returns and evaluation could become a good market support for the publication and external distribution of classics. Due to the needs of economic interests, the traditional publishing industry needs to do a lot of preparatory work before the establishment of the project, especially the publication market demand survey, scale estimation, etc., which are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also limited by technical means and sampling scope. The results obtained often do not match the actual needs. With the help of the new media, the disadvantages of inaccurate demand data and blind publishing direction under the traditional publishing model can be effectively avoided. For example, publishers can collect demand information through an online questionnaire on "readers' favorite cultural classics", combined with the sales and evaluation data of the book sales platform to determine the editing angle, so as to improve the satisfaction of the publishing market of classic books and improve the operation efficiency of the publishing industry.

2) The fusion characteristics of publishing and dissemination formed by the new environment
Objectively, the new media era is also a typical "image-reading era". Images, videos, animations and other forms of communication are far more breathtaking than the impact of words, and the content of Chinese cultural classics lacks the "image-reading function"—— Under the concept of "text carries the Tao"（文以载道）, the text description is more profound, and the image performance is superficial; but it is undeniable that there are rich cultural resources in Chinese classics, including literature, history, politics, science and technology, etc., providing rich materials for the creation of other cultural products, such as film, television, opera and other cultural carriers, which have been provided a better audio-visual experience in the new media environment, and its cultural communication influence is even far higher than the original work. Taking China's "Four Great Classics" as an example, it has been regarded as a classic for many years after it was adapted from the form of cultural classics publication to the form of TV series. The reason why those TV series remain popular in years is that, in addition to the fact that the adapted TV series is very loyal to the original work and well inherited the cultural essence, historical background and values contained in the classics, the more important thing is that through adaptation, a single text is transformed into a richly expressive audio-visual form, giving the audience a refreshing experience, which is not available in the form of publication; at the same time, the adapted literary classics film and television dramas create classic characters,and have realized the in-depth development of the value of classics, among them, there are many famous experts and scholars with cultural attainments guiding those dramas. For example, the 87th edition of "Dream of Red Mansions" was guided by Zhou Ruchang（周汝昌）, Shen Congwen（沈从文）and others. This is essentially a kind of improvement and enrichment of classics. Many content of the classics has been adapted and transformed into a more suitable form of communication in the new media environment, which can arouse the audience's attention to the original work and increase the sales of classics
This transformation of carrier form will not weaken the value of classics, but can help realize the integration of values in communication.

=== New ideas for publishing and disseminating Chinese cultural classics in the new media era===
1) Aim to enhance the influence of Chinese culture
The era of new media presents a state of aggregation of multiple cultures in the same social space, and under the influence of the infiltration of different values, it is inevitable that it will affect the "purity" of traditional Chinese classics, and even appears "mutation" and "subversion". In the face of the challenges of cultural communication in the new media era, on the one hand, we cannot blindly avoid it, work behind closed doors, or attribute the phenomenon of "cultural erosion" to the development of Internet technology, and just let it go and do nothing. Instead, we should actively face it and strive for the right to speak in the new media era by building up cultural self-confidence, enhancing China's cultural soft power. On the other hand, we must be soberly aware that the current world structure is complex, international competition is fierce, and the essence of the ideological struggle is the competition between different cultures. In the context of the new media era, we must be good at tapping our own cultural advantages and integrate into the world cultural trend—the publication and dissemination of Chinese classics is an important way, it is not only a The essence of traditional Chinese culture, but also a wealth of knowledge shared by all human beings. Especially in the long historical process, the symbolic symbols formed by "Chinese culture" are mostly derived from classics, which have a relatively high degree of recognition in the world.

2)Get support through the supply-side reform of the publishing industry

Ⅰ. Optimizing the Operational Thinking of Each Link of the Publishing Industry Chain
Every link in the publishing industry chain, including publishing houses and distributors, should fully recognize the shortcomings of the traditional publishing industry chain in the new media environment, and constantly explore the means to maximize the benefits of products and communication based on their own. In particular, we must pay attention to the huge impact of Internet technology on industries , realize the diversity of cultural classics through technological integration, and further enrich its market form, such as adding animation special effects technology, audio technology, video technology, etc. on the basis of digital technology to better adapt to The reading habits of new media users to optimize the user experience.

II. Strengthen the cultivation of outstanding publishing talents in the new media era
In view of the systematicness and complexity of Chinese classics, the traditional publishing process often emphasizes that the relevant talents should have profound knowledge and the ability to control language and characters. However, in the new media era, we should also strengthen the training of technical talents, including in the fields of digital publishing technology, software development technology, information management technology, etc., and comprehensively promote the digital engineering construction of classics, so as to better realize the development,application and protection in the new media era. , such as the "National Books Museum" project developed by the "National Digital Library of China", it is worth learning from.

Ⅲ. Accelerate the integration of resources in the publication and dissemination of classics
On the one hand, in the field of classics publishing, by summarizing and sorting out various methods and methods, China should explore digital development methods, multiple publishing methods, multimedia printed books presentation methods, visual image expression methods and intelligent voice reading methods etc.,to meet the integration needs of different types of technical resources in the same classics products.
On the other hand, in the field of external dissemination of classics, taking into account the speed and breadth of dissemination, China should establish and improve the database of Chinese classics for other cultural backgrounds to achieve effective integration and efficient use of content resources.

3) Leading with innovative marketing and promotion models
Compared with traditional media, new media subverts not only the communication medium, but also the production and consumption of cultural products in a broad sense.The two major market modules of publishing and dissemination have undergone tremendous changes, especially offline book sales channels (including cross-cultural communication) are facing collapse under the impact of online e-commerce sales platforms.
At the same time, in the process of publishing and disseminating of classics in China, there are obvious disadvantages of "emphasizing publishing and ignoring marketing". The marketing of cultural classics is often concentrated in specific groups such as government departments, colleges and universities, and research institutions, which seriously restricts the role of innovative marketing models.
Therefore, in the publication and dissemination of classics, we should actively turn to the "Internet model" based on innovative marketing and promotion models, including the effective integration, reorganization, and application of internet thinking, internet technology, internet policies and related supporting resources. Breaking the long-term situation of "single soldier fighting" and "separate management" in the publishing and external dissemination of Chinese classics, draw lessons from the marketing strategies of large international publishing groups, through division of labor and cooperation, complementary advantages and strong combination, we could establish a innovative marketing framework of "precise positioning and three-dimensional promotion" .

===New strategies for publishing and disseminating of Chinese classics in the new media era===
1) Based on cross-cultural communication and enhance reader's experience
Chinese classics are all-encompassing and rich in content. So the actual needs of the target readers must be considered, before publication, editors must filtrate, organize and edit the content, and place them in the entire publishing industry chain to review and observe whether there are cultural classics products with homogeneity and strong competitiveness, and to avoid market risks based on this. In particular, the characteristics of cross-cultural communication must be considered in the process of "foreign dissemination". Chinese classics face "double obstacles" in the foreign dissemination; There is a reading and translation barrier between ancient Chinese and modern Chinese, and there is also a reading and translation barrier between Chinese and foreign languages. Therefore, in order to achieve the acceptance of Chinese cultural classics by more foreign readers, it is necessary to meet the translation needs in intercultural communication "Enhancing reader's experience" also needs to introduce new media variables. Internet technology promotes reading to become "fragmented", and cultural consumption pursues "fast food", which is unfavorable for the publication and dissemination of "voluminous work" , according to this change, we can further exert the advantages of new media electronic books retrieval, such as Historical Records（《史记》）, The Analects（《论语》）, Sun Tzu's Art of War（《孙子兵法》） and other classics, there is a good content decomposition mechanism in itself, which can be easily read by subdividing information resources, so as to enhance the reader's experience.

2) The content should focuse on simplicity and reduce the reading burden
The so-called "simplicity" is not the same as "simple" or "simplification", but to "disconnect" the classics according to the principle of moderation, so that the publication status and dissemination status are more suitable for the needs of "going out". Publishing organizations must make choices when it comes to editing classics, and they must learn to focus on the big picture and let go of the small things, and fully consider the limited understanding of foreign Chinese classics readers, otherwise readers will be confused and lose interest in reading. In order to reduce the reading burden, the editors of cultural classics should follow the principle of "The greatest truths are the simplest.（大道至简）", and integrate thinking of Chinese civilization with thinking of foreign culture, to convey the richest connotations through the most refined words, and appropriately use symbolism to express those connotations. For the parts that need further explanation, the editors can use the "link" mode, providing the explanation on digital publishing platforms, or match necessary reading guides with the publication of cultural classics; on the whole, it is a high challenge for publishing and editing work.

3) Adapt to the Internet context and pay attention to the concept of community
The new media era provides people an unprecedented free social environment, the space and time constraints are eliminated, and "interest" has become an important force for gathering communities. This new era have given birth to blogs, Weibo, forums, WeChat and many other media platforms,their appearance have helped establish the foundation of "cultural circles" for interest communities. and there are many readers at home and abroad who are interested in Chinese classics, which provides a good support for the publication and dissemination of classics. Based on this, in the process of publishing and disseminating Chinese classics, publishers should actively adapt to the internet context, actively integrate into interest communities, collect readers' demand information as the basis for topic selection and planning, and even select editors, translators, and writers from readers. The current domestic model of "crowdfunding and publishing books" is a good inspiration for the publication of Chinese classics. It breaks the gap between "publishing production" and "publishing consumption", Paving the way for dissemination—further, in the publication of Chinese classics and the exploration of foreign dissemination paths, we can actively seek some foreign individuals and institutions with attainments in traditional Chinese culture, and use the "unity" of the Internet context to eliminate "Differences" between Chinese and foreign cultures.
===Conclusion===
Chinese cultural classics are extensive and profound, as vast as stars, carrying the unique values and philosophical spirit of Chinese traditional culture, which has laid a solid foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In the face of the situation of "big but not strong" in the field of cultural classics publication in China. In the new media era, it is necessary to clarify the development direction of "going out", with the purpose of enhancing the discourse power of Chinese culture, actively carry out product supply-side structural reform, and innovate marketing and promotion models , to develop a path that adapts to the publication and dissemination of Chinese classics. At the same time, we must grasp the core of "cross-cultural communication". At the same time, we should keep track of the pulse of foreign markets, respect the habits of foreign readers, adapt to the new media era, and enhance the value of Chinese classics in cultural communication.

===Introduction===
1.A Brief Introducation to William Somerset Maugham

William Somerset Maugham is a well-known British novelist and dramatist,known as English Maupassant. Maugham was born in Paris in 1874. He is born in a lawyer’s family.His grandfather is a well-known High Court lawyer in London. His father, Robert Maugham was also a lawyer at the British Embassy in Paris in 1850.In addition to being a lawyer, Robert Maugham is also a auther and editor.So the William Somerset lived in a family full of sensity and rationality. He was the youngerst one in his family. In his young age, he lost his parents, so he lived in his uncle’s house and lived a dependent lifee.His school life wasn’t going well.In 1892, he studied at the University of Heidelberg in Germany, he was influnenced by Ibsen, which lays a deep foundation on his future writing.In 1897, he abandoned medicine and chose to be a writer. At his early age,he lived in Paris, which makes Maugham khow more about beauty,honor, wisdom and writing methods. For he has underdone World War II, he has a unique artistic style in his work.

As a novelist and dramatist ,he has written many novels and dramas. The most famous novels are Of Human Bondage(1915), The Moon and Sixpence(1919) and The Razor’s Edge(1944), and there are some other novels,such as Lisa of Lamebeth(1897), Mrs. Craddock(1902), The Merry-go-round(1904), The Magician(1908) and so on.

Maugham’s death consciousness is often reflected in his novels. The death of his parents, the identity of the physician and the World War make him see a lot of death.The description of death enables the readers to realize the significance of life and inspires the reader’s deeper thinking of humanity. He also attaches the pursuit of the spiritual world.In his novels, the pleasure obtained by material world is illusory, only the spiritual pursuit is meaningful.

In addition, the experience at Maugham’s very early age makes Maugham develop a withdrawn personality, many of his novels can reflect the characters’ lonely, whthdrawn and indifferent personality.

2.A Brief Introduction to The Moon and Sixpence

The Moon and Sixpence is one of the Maugham’s best-known novels which was put out in 1919. The novel is based on the French impressionist, Paul Gauguin. Gauguin used to be a broker at the Verdun Stock Exchange,but later,because he likes painting, he resigns to forcus on painting. He is willing to live a poor life for painting.Gauguin wants to find psychological pursuit , he sails across the sea to the Tahiti in the South Pacific where he paints a lot of paintings. On the basis of Gauguin, Maugham’s writing in The Moon and Sixpence can deeply embody the protagnist’s pursuit of dreams, consideration of life and perception of humanity.

The name of the novel is very profound. “Moon” in the The Moon and Sixpence expresses the bright and distant dreams, and “Sixpence” in it expresses the real material life.When a person needs to choose between dream and reality,giving up the dreamm to choose the life or ignoring the life to choose the dream, this is a thought-provoking question. In this novel, Strickland’s first choose is “Sixpence”. In the first half og his life, he lives a regular and ordinary life. He is a strockbroker and lives happily with his spouse and two childre. Later, he chooses the “Moon”. For his hobby of painting, he leaves his home, his wife and his lovely children. In addition to the protagonist Strickland, some characters in the novel also face the problem of “Moon ” and “Sixpence”

The novel is written with “I” as the narrator, and “I” is a participant and a bystander. This narrative structure is an important feature of Maugham’s novels. As the begining of the novel, because Mrs.Strickland likes to make friends with literati, “I” meets Mrs. Strickland at Miss Waterford's tea party. At first, “I” knows Strickland that he is an ordinary and boring person.

3.A Brief Introduction to the Translater and Translating Verisons

The earliest Chinese verison of The Moon and Sixpence was Fu Weici's translation published by Foreign Literature Publishing House in 1981 (Qin Hong, 2008). The translation was so popular that it was republished by Shanghai Translation Publishing House in 1995, 1997 and 2003. Mr. Fu Weici ( 1923 - 2014) was a native of Beijing. He studied in the Western Department of Beijing Fu Jen Catholic University, Zhejiang University (Guizhou) and Peking University. After graduation in 1950, he taught Chinese courses for overseas students and worked as a translator. He was once a professor in the Foreign Languages Department of Beijing Language and Culture University. His major English translations include the novels The Moon and Sixpence, The Core of the Problem and Animal Farm.

Chen Yixuan's translation of The Moon and Sixpence was published by Taiwan's Rye Publishing House in 2013, and Chen's translation was introduced by East China Normal University Press in January 2016.This paper chooses the latter version of simplified Chinese characters.Chen Yi-hsuan, a native of Kaohsiung, Taiwan, is a senior translator of foreign literature. His masterpieces include The Chameleon and The Moon and Sixpence.

Also in January 2016, Tianjin People's Publishing House published Li Jihong's translation of The Moon and Sixpence.The two recent translations also show the vitality of Maugham's work in domestic readers.Li Jihong, born in 1980, is a visiting scholar at the Shakespeare Institute of the University of Birmingham and a visiting researcher at the English Department of the University of United States, Irvine. His best-selling translations include The Kite Runner and The Little Prince.
Fu Weici's translation appeared earliest and lasted longest, while Chen Yixuan's and Li Jihong's versions were newer.Due to the long distance between the translation years and the different authors in Beijing, the three versions are selected for specific analysis through specific cases.

===Literature Review===
As one of the masterpieces of Maugham’s novels, The Moon and Sixpence attracts many attention of readers and literary circle. It becomes the object of study among scholars.Many scholars at home and abroad study this novel from different perspectives.
Study about The Moon and Sixpence is from various perspectives, such as the psychological analyses, the study of narrative methods, colonialism, genre,misogyny, characters and modernism.

Psychilogical researches include the contradiction between rationality and irrationality, Schopenhauer’s theory, the combination of psychological analysis with feminism,human nature. Yangyan Huan（2015）probes into confrontations between reason and irrational which are demonstrated by conflicts between soul and body in The Moon and Sixpence. The confrontations between reason and irrationality is the basic paradox in human life. Therefore, this novel is a miniature of real society with consistent struggles and pains. Moreover, it explores the influence of writer’s psychological situation on writing.

Ding Xia(2014) analyzes the bahavior of Strickland from two perspectives of Feud’s “id” theory and sexism. Then, he compares Strickland to Freudian hero in the novel. In lines with Freud’s “id” theory, artists may transfer their sexual desire into more sublimed field such as art. The fact that Maugham was a homesexual strengthened his misogynistic view in this novel. It is relevant to Maugham’s affection to man in real life.
Wangya Nan(2014) combines modernism and nihilism to make a systematic expatiation and discussion of the novel from four perspectives, including formation of modernist characteristics ,modernist consciousness,modernist theme, and Maugham’s application of modernist techniques. The thought of nihimism also find its vivid expression in the protagonist’s being fed up with secular society, his strong desire to escape from the realistic society and his hostile relationship with enviroment.

The study of human nature is illustrated by various characters. Huang Lei(2015) makes a study of Strickland’s spiritual trek is a crazy gesture. Although Strickland is depicted as an anti-social man who goes against social conventions, he mirrors other people’s personalities. Actually, Maugham expresses his feelings and emotions through Strickland.

===Methods and Theories===
1.The Translator's Role in Traditional Translation Studies

From translation perspective, the translationg version could not by analyzed from the literary and cultural level but only from the gain and loss of language, so the status of the translator in history is very low.

The traditional view holds that the translation cannot be compared with creation. Even Lin Shu，who is known as a "famous translator," believes that translation is very low (Qian Zhongshu, 1981).Similarly, Lawrence Venuti has made a systematic study of the translator's “invisibility” in his book The Invisibility of Ttranslator, and put forward his unique views on the root of the translator's invisibility and its influence on the translator's status.The translator and the author may have different races and language habits, different expressions and even different values, but the translator will try his best to present the information to the readers completely. The translator chooses the latter between highlighting the subjectivity of himself or showing the subjectivity of the author completely. The translator hides the subjectivity of himself behind the subjectivity of the author, so as to present the author's works to the target language readers as original.

1.The Translator’s subjectivity

Among them, the translator's subjectivity runs through the whole translating process , while the other ones are only reflected in a certain part of translation, so the translator's subjectivity is conter of translation subjectivity. The translator is the one undertaking translation practice, on the one hand, the translator has full independence withtout attracting to the original text,author or readers,so the translator has full play to thier subjective initiative;on the other hand, the translator’s subjectivity has also been restricted by some conditions.(Tu Guoyuan, 2003)

2. Factors of Affecting Translator's Subjectivity

Xiong Bingjiao（2005）concerns that “cultural turn” of translation studies is a turning point, which the research field swift to the subjectivity of translator. This new swift expand the new horizon and come into the scope of translation studies. Before the “stylistic turn”, translation studies forcused on the translated text subordinate. Xiong Bingjiao(2005) further pointed out that the “cultural turn” highlighted the subjectivity of the translator and forcused on the tranlator.

The main factors affectiong the translator’s subjectivity include: (1) the characteristics of the two languages, habits;(2) the objective law of language transformation;(3) the linguistic, cultural and aesthetic characteristics of the original work and the aesthetic expectations of the target readers;(4) the translation view and the adoption of translation strategies in a specific era;(5) the translator's own cultural structure and language ability, etc. (Zhong Weihe, Zhou Jing: 2006）。

===Subtitle 1 Analysis on Translating Cases ===
Through a careful study and comparison of the original text and three translated versions of The Moon and Sixpence, this paper selects some typical sentences which can fully embody the translator's subjectivity.

1.Translator's Subjectivity in Semantic Comprehension and Interpretation

In the translating process, the translator are supposed to have a full understanding of the source text, although it also require the translator be objective as far as possible. For the high subjectivity of literary works, the translator’s undrstanding is inevitably with the translator’s subjective color.The translator exerts his subjective initiative and makes use of his own understanding of the original text to present it in the translated text.Therefore, the translator's subjectivity is first reflected in the translator's understanding and interpretation of the work, which is the most prone to significant differences between different versions of the place. The following is a specific analysis of translation cases:

（1）The Prime Minister out of office is seen,too often, to have been but a pompous rhetorician, and the General without an army is but the tame hero of a market town.(P1)

傅译:人们常常发现一位离了职的首相当年只不过是个大言不惭的演说家；一个解甲归田的将军无非是个平淡乏味的市井英雄。（P1）

陈译：一国首相下台后，常被看穿过往只是个口若悬河的说客；而没了军队的将军，不过是解甲归田的落魄英雄。（P1）

李译:人们常常发现，离任的总理原来只是个能言善辩的口舌之主，卸职的将军也无非是个软弱可欺的市井之徒。（P1）

In the 1st example,they have different understanding to the original words“the tame hero”.According to the Collins Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary, tame means "tame; Plain; dull; submissive. "The English definition describes the meaning of the adjective come in more detail: “If you say that something or someone is tame, you are criticizing them for being weak and uninteresting, rather than forceful or shocking”. The word “tame” is used to describe the general’s “weak”.From the Collins Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary,the word “hero” means “someone, especially a man , who has done something brave,new, or good, and who is therefore greatley admired by a lot of people”.In this phrase, the author uses an oxymoron, using two diametrically opposed frontal words, tame and hero, to describe "the General without an army," highlighting its "not great."Therefore, it is necessary to retain the rhetorical devices of the original text in translation, reflecting the contrast between the meanings of adjectives and names.

Both Fu and Chen retained the word "hero”.Fu Weici understood “tame” as "plain and boring," which did not reflect the key meaning of "weak," which was not conducive to highlighting the contradiction between the two words.The "Shijing hero"(Chinese Pinyin) refers to the brave, just and responsible people in ordinary life, and is a praise for ordinary people. “Shijin” is added contents, reflecting the mighty general return to the plain people’s lives, but the part of speech deviated from the original irony of praise. Chen will translate “tame” as “returning home”,which is a neutral word. Does not reflect the “weak ” derogatory sense.However, in the translation of “hero”, “落魄”（luopo，which is Chinese pinyin), reflecting a certain sense of contrast.

Li Jihong translate “tame” into “软弱可欺”（ruan ruo ke qi，which means weak and bullied in English）,which is more accurate.The meaning of “市井之徒”（Chinese 拼音shi jing zhi tu）refers to the humble peddlers or uneducated people.Unlike the Fu and Chen’s verison,Li deletes the key image of “hero”. “Weak and bullied” and “shijingzhitu” are derogatory, which can be said to not reflect the oxymoron of the original text.
Three versions are different, the translators give their own understanding .In translation practice, the expression of meaning often depends on the translator's own understanding, extension and creativity, this case reflects the translator's subjectivity,which has an important influence on the understanding and interpretation of the original meaning.

2. Translation Strategies in the Choice of Translator’s Subjectivity

中国传统的翻译策略可以分为意译与直译，归化与异化（叶如祥，2011）。选择意译或译入语为导向的翻译策略，说明译者更多的遵从于译入语的语言规范，这样有利于译文的被读者接纳；而选择直译或以原语为导向的翻译策略，说明译者希望引进新的表达方式，丰富译入语。无论哪种策略，都是译者发挥主观能动性，进行主动选择的结果，都可不同程度地体现译者主体性。通过结合译例，本节对三位译者在选择翻译策略时体现的主体性进行分析。

Traditional translation strategies in China can be divided into free translation and literal translation, domestication and foreignization (Ye Ruxiang, 2011).The choice of free translation or targeted translation strategy shows that the translator is more compliant with the target language norms, which is conducive to the acceptance of the translation by the readers; The choice of literal translation or source-oriented translation strategy shows that the translator hopes to introduce new expressions to enrich the target language.In this section, I will analyze the subjectivity of the three translators in choosing translation strategies through examples.

(2)I find myself in a position to throw light on just that part of his tragic career which has remained most obscure.(P4)
傅译；我发现对他悲剧的一生中人们最不清晰的一段日子，我恰好可以投掷一道亮光。(P8）陈译：我发现自己正好可Ｗ针对他悲剧性的生涯中最隐晦的那段时间，做出澄清与说明。(P9)李译；我发现我可以向大家讲述他的悲剧人生中最不为人所知的几年。（P9）

In the 2nd example, three translators have different ways to translate the phrase“throw light on”. According to the dictionary, the fixed phrase “throw light on ” means “make clear” “clarify” “illustrate” “make sb understand” or “provide clues,ideas to sb”, having the same meaning with the word “enlignten” or “illustrate”. This is a common fixed phrase,rather than created by Maugham, It is also not a metaphor.

Fu Weici chose a foreignization, retaining the metaphor of the original phrase and translating it literally into "throwing a light."The phrase is a very common in English phrase, however there is no corresponding Chinese expression.This method of translation retains the language features of English, but may cause some difficulties for readers who are not familiar with English.Chen Yixuan adopted the method of free translation, translated as "to clarify and illustrate," to express direclyt, clearly, completely in line with the native Chinese usage, which is easy to understand for the reader. Li Weihong weakened this phrase, translated as "tell," and then the text is just the beginning of the "telling" Strickland's experience. Three translators have an accurate understanding of the original, but are in different considerations to choose different translation strategies , reflecting the subjectivity of the translators.

(3)He followed me, and entered the apartment on my heels.(P98)

傅译：他跟在后面，踩着我的脚后跟走进我的住房。(P178)

陈译：他尾随我进入公寓。（P180）

李译：他跟在我身后，紧贴着我走进了房间。（P179）

The text is an common narrative.In this sentence, the three translators have different treatment of the phrase "on my heels."According to the dictionary,"on one's heels" is a fixed phrase, a figurative expression meaning "to follow closely behind." As in the previous example, this is a common fixed expression rather than a Maugham’s literary technique.

Once again, Fu Weici chose to literal translation.Compared with the case of "throwing a light",this metaphor is different.The phrase"standing on the heel"has a really meaning in Chinese, it may be a little abrupt to use it here.It is not always possible to copy English figurative expressions into Chinese by literal translation, and in this case it may be inappropriate. Chen Yixuan and Li Jihong have chosen the free translation, in line with Chinese expression habits, natural and smooth, not in the text to attract the reader's attention.

3. The Embodiment of Translator's Subjectivity in Target Culture Inheritance

Translation is not only a superficial conversion between words, but also a deep communication at the cultural level.Therefore, in addition to convert the original text into the target language text, the translator also needs to exert influence on the text according to the target language culture, in order to make it into a text that conforms to the target language culture.

(4)His face was deeply lined, burned brown by long exposure to the sun, and he had a pair of small blue eyes which were astonishingly shifty.)They moved quickly , following my smallest gesture, and they gave him the look og a very thogough rogue.(P114)

傅译；随着我的手势，他的眼睛很快地转来转去，叫人一望而知是个社会上的老油子。（P206)

陈译：那对眼珠跟随着我的一举一动快速转动，让他看起来像极了恶棍。(P209)

李译；它们贼溜溜地转得很快，连我最细微的动作都不肯放过，一看就是那种奸诈的流民.(P208)

According to the Collins Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary, “rogue” has two meanings when used as a noun: the one is "A rogue is a man who behaves in a gangster or criminal way," which is derogatory;another is"If a man behaves in a way that you do not approve of but you still him, you can refer to him as a rogue," or "troublemaker," is a nickname.The latter address with spoil, generally is an adult for children, here is not appropriate, so the original “rogue” should be understood as the meaning of "flow qiao, villain."

The short sentence"a pair of small blue eyes which were astonishingly shifty. They moved quickly "reflects the character's shrewdness and flexibility, so the author use the word “rogue” more likely to describe the character 's" dishonest " than the" criminal ".Fu Weici translated it into "Lao Youzi"(Chinese pinyin) whch is a Beijing dialect, meaning with someone is"cunny," refers to the experienced and flattering people .In line with the meaning of the author.Lao She in the his book Camel Xiangzi (1936) also used the word: 'As for the bargaining for seats, his words express his slow and energetic attitude, but failed to those Lao Youzi.' With Mr. Lao She, Fu Weici is also from Beijing, so in his works will not consciously use some of the expression of Beijing dialect. Here reflects the translation of works will be subject to their own growth environment, language environment.

Chen Yixuan's translation “ rogue” as "villain" is in line with the dictionary meaning.Li Jihong treated it as a "treacherous refugee."'Refugees' from the ancient book Four times of Guanzi', meaning 'affected by the exile in the field, life is not available for people', apparently used here does not meet the original meaning. Although the term selection has been biased, but the adjective 'treacherous' and 'bold' translated by Li Jihong has similar meaning with the source text, which can be described as half merits and demerits.

4. Translator's Subjectivity in Language Style

As the reproducer of the original text, the translator reproduces the literary works, so the translator's writing and language style are also the important embodiment of the translator's subjectivity in the translation.The following translation of specific examples of the three authors of the language style analysis:

(5)It is not without melancholy that I wander among my recollections of the world of letters in London when first, bashful but eager, I was introduced to it. It is long since I frequented it, and if the novles that describe its present singularities are accurate much in it is now changed.The venue is different.(P6)

傅译：我刚刚被引进伦敦文学界的时候，也情又是热切又是羞涩；现在回忆起当时的种种情况，不无凄凉之感。很久我没有到伦敦去了，如果现在出版的小说里面的描写是真，伦敦一定发生了很大变化了。文人聚会的地点已经改变了。（P12）

陈译：初踏伦敦文艺界，我虽怯生但也渴切，忆起当时情景心中难免低徊。我不再涉足其中己久，倘若描述当前奇观的小说所言无误，那么如今许多事物不复以往。（P13）

李译：最早踏进伦敦的文学世界时，我也里既忐忑又期待。回忆起当初的种种情状，真是不无物是人非的感慨。我久已远离那个世界，假如各种小说对其现状的描写是准确的，那么如今的情况有所改变。活动的场所和以前不同。（P12）

This sentence is the background of "I" reviewed my own fledglings London literary and arts, recall the past and to look at now, can not help but sighing with emotion.This example is very typical, which can reflect the three translators different language style.Among the three versions, Fu Weici's translation is the earliest, but the expression is more plain and easy to understand, without using words with classical Chinese color, nor using four-character idioms.Chen Yixuan's language style is graceful and poetic, with classical Chinese color, such as "inevitable low,""no longer the past" and so on. Li Jihong's version is the latest version, but the language is more than Fu's version based on a little more literary color, such as "not without,""long already" and so on.

===Conclusion===
In the 1970s, the translation circle began to pay attention to the translator's subjectivity, that is, the translator's subjectivity. The translator should be regarded as the center of translation activities.There are many factors that influence the translator's subjectivity, such as the translator's region, time, educational background, the translator's ability to control the language and the translator's choice of translation strategies.

This thesis focuses on three Chinese versions of the famous novelist Maugham's The Moon and Sixpence from the perspective of translator's subjectivity.Through that analysis and comparison of the selected examples, it can be seen that the three translator, as the main body of translation, have exerted their own subjective initiative in translating The Moon and Sixpence, which embodies the respective characteristic of the translators of the three translators.

In the choice of translation strategies, Fu Weici tends to literal translation and foreignization, Chen Yixuan tends to free translation and domestication, and Li Jihong tends to weaken the cultural characteristics of the original text on the basis of free translation.In terms of cultural inheritance, Fu Weici's translation uses some Beijing dialect on the basis of conforming to Mandarin, Chen Yixuan's translation reflects the characteristics of Chinese in Taiwan, Li Jihong's translation uses standard Mandarin without dialect expression.In the language style, Fu Weici's language style is plain and simple, Li Jihong's language style contains a trace of written color on the basis of plain and easy to understand, Chen Yixuan's language style is poetic and gentle, with the most rich literary color.The analysis of translation examples shows that the difference of translator's subjectivity is not only reflected in the translator's understanding and interpretation of the work and artistic recreation at the linguistic level, but also reflected in the choice of the translated text, the cultural purpose of viewing the translation and the translation strategies, which are the linguistic, cultural and aesthetic characteristics of the original work and are influenced by the translator's cultural pre-structure (including regional environment, social background, national character, religious background, cultural origin, ideology, aesthetic taste, language ability) and the influence of the translation concept of the specific era.

To sum up, from the perspective of translator's subjectivity, the three Chinese versions of The Moon and Sixpence all show their subjective initiative and different styles in translation activities.This paper, to a certain extent, fills the gap in the study of the translation of The Moon and Sixpence.By analyzing the role and embodiment of the translator's subjectivity in the translation process, the translator can make better use of his subjectivity and deal with the influence of various factors on the translation, so as to present a better translation to the readers.

===Introduction===

''The Art of War'', also known as ''Sun Tzu'' and ''Sun Wu’s Art of War'', is an ancient Chinese military book, the world’s oldest work on military theory, and one of the Seven Books of the military scriptures, written by Sun Wu in the late Spring and Autumn Period (770 AD to 476 AD). Although the number of volumes recorded in successive generations is different, the number of chapters are all thirteen, divided into the chapter of plan, combat, strategy and attack, form, momentum (shi), strength and weakness, military disputes, changes, marching, terrain, lands, fire attack, and use of the intervening. The book summarizes the experience of warfare at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period and before, reveals a series of universal military laws, and puts forward many incisive rules of warfare, such as “if you know yourself and your enemy, you will not be in danger in an” battles”, “you do not need to fight to give up the army”, and “if they are not prepared, you will be able to attack them”. It contains simple materialistic and dialectical ideas, and has formed a systematic military theory system, which is highly respected and is well known at home and abroad. It was introduced to Japan in the 8th century A.D. and to Europe in the 18th century, with translations in Japanese, French, English, Russian, German, Italian, Hebrew, Arabic and other languages. At present, the earliest version of ''The Art of War'' in Chinese is the bamboo book from the Han tomb at Yinqishan; the earliest engraved version is the Seven Books of Military Theory in the reign of Emperor Xiaozong and Emperor Guangzong of the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279) and the three-volume book of The Eleven Books of Annotation of ''The Art of War'' in the reign of Emperor Ningzong of the Southern Song Dynasty. After the unearthing of the bamboo book “Qi Sun Tzu”, it was collated and publicly published by the Cultural Relics Publishing House in 1975 under the name of ''Sun Tzu: The Art of War'' (孙子兵法).

Since the first English translation of ''The Art of War'' by E.F. Calthrop in 1905, many translators at home and abroad have translated the book into English, and more than 50 full English translations of ''The Art of War'' have been published. According to the survey data on Amazon in the UK and the US, The Art of War is very popular among readers in the English-speaking world, and the top English translations include Lionel Giles (1910), Samuel B. Griffith (1963), Thomas Cleary (1988 (1993), Ralph D. Sawyer (1993), Roger Ames (1993), Gary Gagliard (1999), The Denma Translation Group (2001), John Minford (2001). John Minford) English translation (2002), Clements (Jonathan Clements) English translation (2012), Peter Harris (Peter Harris) English translation (2018), Demeco (Michael Nylan) English translation (2020) (Zhou & Ji 2021:55). It can be seen that the English translations of Sun Tzu’s The Art of War that are more influential and widely circulated abroad are all from foreign translators. Generally speaking, although there may be mistranslations, the translation of The Art of War by some well-known Sinologists and translators abroad, taking advantage of their own academic status and fame and adopting translation strategies that are easily accepted by foreign readers, has also been a great help in promoting the foreign dissemination of the book. The influence of The Art of War has gradually expanded after its long-term popularity, and the attention to it in English-speaking countries has begun to gradually expand from text translation and military research to its application in other non-military fields, using Sun Tzu's ideas to solve difficult problems that arise in social life, making the study of The Art of War begin to develop in a diversified direction (Zhou 2019:69).

Lasswell’s “5W model” is a classic theory of communication science, which illustrates the five elements of the communication process, namely, communicator, message, communication channel, audience, and feedback. In the process of receiving the English translation of ''The Art of War'' in the West, there are also these communication elements and links, such as who initiated this translation practice, which translator translated it, through which channels it was disseminated to the West, what characteristics of foreign readers, and what was the degree of reception and feedback of readers. From the perspective of communication science, this translation practice of the English translation of ''The Art of War'' can be studied comprehensively and multidimensionally, and the reasons for its successful dissemination and acceptance in the West can be analyzed to provide reference for the general direction and specific operation process of the foreign translation of Chinese classics and to enlighten the better foreign dissemination of Chinese culture.

===Literature Review===

By typing in the keywords of “''The Art of War''”, “English translation” and “acceptance” on CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), there are only 12 relevant papers, which shows that there is a lack of research on the overseas reception of the Art of War. The current studies, such as Li Ning’s ''On the Overseas Reception of Lin Wusun’s English Version of the Art of War'', which does a survey on the acceptance of Lin Wusun’s translation of ''Sun Tzu's Art of War'' in the translated language from three aspects: global collections, focus group readership surveys, and published reviews. As far as the acceptance of Western readers is concerned, the translations by foreign translators are more popular, while the works of Chinese translators, though highly recognized at home, are often unappreciated abroad, and many translations of Chinese texts have shifted from “export to domestic sales” (Wang 2009:6). According to WorldCat database in March of 2011, the number of collections of Samuel B. Griffith’s English translation is 985 for the 1971 edition and 856 for the 1963 edition; the number of collections of Lionel Giles’ English translation is 131 for the 2008 edition, 109 for the 2005 edition, and 79 for the 2003 edition, The collection of the Thomas Cleary’s translation is 776 for the 1988 edition; the collection of the Ralph D. Sawyer’s translation is 715 for the 1996 edition; the collection of the Denma Translation Group’s translation is 610 for the 2001 edition; the translation of John Minford’s collection was 52 for the 2009 edition and 315 for the 2002 edition; the translation of Victor H. Mair’s collection was 255 for the 2007 edition; the translation of Thomas Huynh’s collection was 224 for the 2008 edition; the translation of Roger Ames’s collection was 1 for the 1993 edition. The number of collections for the English translation by Lin Wusun is 12 for the 2007 edition, 35 for the 2001 edition, and 30 for the 1991 edition. This shows that in order to change the situation of “entertaining itself” of the Chinese translators of Library of Chinese Classics and to make Chinese culture spread to the world and become a unique part of the world culture, it is urgent to carry out research on the acceptance of the English translation of the Chinese classics from the readers’ perspective (Li 2015:81). We must open our minds to strengthen the study of the overseas reception of the English translation by Chinese translators while drawing on the power of sinologists to construct the ability to spread Chinese culture independently (Li 2018:29).

Subsequently, there are many scholars who have started to carry out research on the acceptance of Chinese texts in foreign translation from the reader’s perspective, such as Zhou Xinyi and Ji Hongqin’s ''Overseas Current Situation of Communication and Reflections on the English Translation of the Art of War—A Survey Based on Amazon in UK AND USA'', which summarizes the reason for the successful reception of the book translated by foreign translators on the basis of the reader’s reviews on Amazon in UK and USA, and analyzes the three major problems of the English translation of ''Sun Tzu's Art of War'' by domestic translators, namely, the popularity of the translation, the quality of the translation, and the editing and binding of the translation to propose countermeasures to improve the reading experience of foreign readers. In addition to improving the “hard power” of translation quality, it is also important to improve the “soft power” of translation editing and the design of book face. Good appearance, professional editing and good printing will increase readers’ favorable impression on the translation and bring them a better reading experience (Zhou & Ji 2021:58).

The English translation and reception of ''Sun Tzu's The Art of War'' contains many elements and links, and audience analysis and feedback analysis are only two of them. The “going global” of Chinese culture is not simply a linguistic issue, but is influenced by various factors such as culture, history, society, and commercial publishing (Li 2018:29). No one has yet studied the insights of the successful reception of the English translation of The Art of War by foreign translators in the West from the perspective of communication science. The translation and acceptance of ''The Art of War'' in the West is a communication process itself, so it is practical to analyze the characteristics of the translation history of ''Sun Tzu's The Art of War'' in the West and the insights from successful translations from the perspective of communication science.

===Communication Theory--Lasswell's "5W Model"===

The science of communication appeared in the 1920s, and it was designated as an independent discipline in the 1940s. The 1980s witnessed further gains in the 1980s witnessed further gains in popularity of this subject. communication science is to study the process of human communication behaviors and the relationship between people and society. When it comes to communication process, many scholars have proposed their own models, among which 5W models of Harold Lasswell is one of the most classical. classical.
In his magnum opus, The Structure and Function of Communication in Society (2017), Harold Lasswell gave a description of the act of communication:
Convenient way to describe an act of communication is to answer the following questions:
Who
Says What
In Which Channel
To Whom
With What Effect?
The scientific study of the process of communication tends to be concentrated upon one or another of these questions. Scholars who study the “who”, the communicator, look into the factors that initiate and guide the act of communication. Specialists who focus upon the “says what” engage in content analysis. Those who look primarily at the radio, press, film, and other channels of communication are doing media analysis. If the question is the impact upon audiences, the problem is effect analysis (2017: 3-4).

This is the detailed explanation of Lasswell”s 5W models, including five factors in the communication process, namely communicator, information, media, audience and effect. “Who” refers to the communicator, a person who collects, handles and sends the
information in the communication process. The communicator can be only one person, a community or an organization, who is to make the communication process get started. “Say What” means the content of the information, which can be verbal or non-verbal. It can also be considered as the purpose of the communication activity. “In Which Channel” is the media through which the information is sent by the communicator. It can be private forms like letters or telephones, and it can also be mass media such as newspaper, television or radio. “To Whom” stands for the audience who receive the information from the communicator by a certain channel. As the final part of the communication process, they can be readers, listeners or spectators. “With What Effect” refers to the audience’s reaction to the information. It can be called feedback as well, measuring whether the communication activity is effective or not.
In fact, there are many similarities between the communication process and the translation process. The author is the communicator, the information is the original text, and the audience is the target reader. However, there is one more link which occurs between the information and the media in the translation process. It is the translator who renders the original information and transmit the translated information to the target reader through a certain medium. In this sense, the effect is the target reader’s feedback to the translated information, which can be used to assess the quality of the version. From this point of view, the property of translation is a communication activity containing the exchange of information, thus providing a basis for studying translation
process from the perspective of communication science.

===The History and Characteristics of the English Translation of ''The Art of War'' in the West from the Perspective of Communication===

The history of the English translation of ''The Art of War'' can be divided into three stages. This paper will select representative translations of each stage and analyze the characteristics of each stage from the perspective of communication on the basis of Lasswell’s “5W model”.

First Phase: 1905 to the 1930s

The representative translations of this period are E.F. Calthrop’s English translation in 1905 and Lionel Giles’s English translation in 1910. From the two elements of initiator and translator, Calthrop and Lionel Giles are both the initiator and the translator of the translation practice of ''Sun Tzu's Art of War''. The difference lies in their different purposes of translating the book. Calthrop was a British captain studying in Japan at that time. Having seeing that the Japanese naval commander at that time carried Sun Tzu's Art of War with him and used the art of war to guide his operations with very satisfactory results, he wanted to translate the military ideas in the book to England, so he translated it into English by using the Japanese version of the book as a base. Lionel Giles, on the other hand, was a sinologist, influenced by his father, Herbert A. Giles, and had a strong interest in Chinese culture, a solid background in sinology, and a rigorous approach to learning. In this way, from the point of view of the information, that is, the original text sent and translated by Calthrop and Lionel Giles is different. one was translated through the intermediary language Japanese, and the other was directly translated through the source language version. In terms of the channel of dissemination, that is, the media, both translations are disseminated in the form of books. From the perspective of the target audience, that is, the readers, Calthrop mainly wanted to translate Sun Tzu's Art of War into English for officers to refer to and learn from the operational ideas in it when commanding operations. Lionel Giles, on the other hand, did not translate ''The Art of War'' for a specific purpose, so his target audience was not a specific group of people, but to translate the book to the whole foreign readership in an attempt to introduce and spread the traditional Chinese culture. Finally, from the viewpoint of the dissemination effect, that is, the reader’ feedback, Calthrop did not translate from the Chinese text, but from the Japanese text, so in this process, there are inevitably mistranslations and omissions that do not match the original Chinese text. At the same time, Calthrop was not a professional translator, and his translation level was limited. He chose to omit or pass over some difficult chapters, and the final English translation of Sun Tzu's Art of War is definitely not of high quality. In contrast, Lionel Giles chose the original Chinese text as the base text, and with his proficiency in both Chinese and English, and his rigorous attitude as a sinologist, his translation is smooth, and rhythmic, which is not only translating the Chinese version of The Art of War, but also introducing the person who made the commentary for the original text one by one, providing a wealth of information for the western readers to understand the knowledge in ancient Chinese culture, and it is still a classic work, and has a very profound influence on the spread of Sun Tzu’s thought in the Western world (Tu & Wu, 2011:188).

Second Phase: the 1940s to the 1980s

One of the representative English translations of ''The Art of War'' of this period is the 1963 translation by American Brigadier General Samuel Griffith, which was popular in the West at the time and was included in the UNESCO series of translations of representative Chinese classics, and has been reprinted several times since then, becoming an Amazon top bestseller for more than 100 weeks and taking over the authoritative status of Lionel Giles’ English translation in the entire Western world. Thus, from the feedback of readers, Griffith’s English translation is very effective in spreading. Like Calthrop and Lionel Giles, Griffith’s translation of The Art of War was initiated by the transaltor himself, and the purpose of the translation, like Calthrop, was influenced by the context of the times and the desire to use ''the Art of War'' to formulate operational guidelines in battles. The channel of dissemination of Griffith’s translation was also in the form of book, and the target audience was narrowly himself, who translated ''Sun Tzu’s Art of War'' to guide his own military combat practice, but in a broader sense, with the development of the times, the target reader should be any group of people interested in military theory. His translation interprets Sun Tzu's thought well from the perspective of military strategy, discusses Sun Tzu's view of war, and observes the relationship between ''The Art of War'' and Mao Zedong’s thought, while having a clear tendency to naturalize in its translation strategy (Tu & Wu, 2011:188). Another representative version is James Clavell’s 1983 edition, which is a reprint of the English translation by Lionel Giles. Again, he was both the initiator of the translation activity and the translator himself. From the information of the original text, he relied on Lionel Giles’ translation, added his own commentary to the translation, targeted the entire Western readership, and disseminated the book through the same channel. He paid attention to readers’ feedback by focusing on the common style of the translation to make it more acceptable to Western readers. In the 1980s, the purpose of translating ''Sun Tzu's The Art of War'' changed from military studies to popularizing Chinese culture and its ancient philosophical thought.

Third phase: the 1990s to present

After a long period of popularity, the influence of ''The Art of War'' has gradually expanded, and the attention to it in English-speaking countries began to gradually expand from translation of the text and military research to its application in other non-military fields by using Sun Tzu’s ideas to solve difficult problems arising in social life, which made the research on ''The Art of War'' begin to develop in a diversified direction (Zhou, 2019:69) In this phase, from 1991 to 2010, 21 English translations of ''The Art of War'' appeared in just 20 years (Tu & Wu 2011:189), each with a different focus, promoting the translation and dissemination of The Art of War and contributing to the spread of Chinese culture. Among them, the process of translating ''The Art of War'' by the American Denma translation group in 2002 has its unique characteristics. Although the initiator and translator are still the same, the initiator and translator of the translation of ''The Art of War'' by the Denma group are no longer a single individual, but a group focused on translation consisting of several individuals, whose research on The Art of War took 10 years and adopted the translation strategy of foreignization. The target audience is all Western readers who are interested in Chinese culture. In terms of dissemination channels, in addition to the traditional use of books as the main channel, the Denma group has set up a relevant website, where it posts its own translations from time to time during the translation process in an attempt to welcome scholars and researchers from all over the world to read and discuss, give suggestions for changes, and explain reasons. Such a practice puts the translation and dissemination of ''The Art of War'' into a circular mode. Instead of waiting until the end of the whole translation activity to give feedback to the initiators and translators, readers can give their own feedback directly to the translators during the translation activity, which can fully activate the Western readers and enhance the dissemination effect.

===Insights from Reception of English Translations of ''The Art of War'' in the West from the Perspective of Communication===

From the perspective of the initiator of translation activities, the initiators of many foreign translation activities of Chinese classics are currently undertaken by publishing houses. In order to achieve a good dissemination effect, as the initiator, the publisher must act as a good gatekeeper to ensure a reasonable interaction between each element and link of translation, dissemination and reception. As can be seen from the above, the English translations of ''Sun Tzu's The Art of War'' that are currently more popular among the Western readership are all translated by foreign translators and published by foreign publishers. This also gives the initiators of translation activities an inspiration: in order to make the Chinese classic texts more effectively translated and accepted in the West, it is necessary to penetrate into the Western reading market and find more authoritative and famous foreign publishers to cooperate in publishing translations of Chinese classic texts, which will make the translation and dissemination activities more effective. By exploring the foreign reading market through well-known foreign publishers and knowing the kinds of books Western readers like, the initiator will know what kind of information to send. That is to say, the publisher will have a reference for the selection of the original text to be translated, because the selection of the appropriate original text for translation and dissemination is a prerequisite for successful acceptance by readers.

Secondly, the choice of translators is also important. According to the history of English translation of ''The Art of War'', it can be found that the translations by foreign translators are easier to appear and circulate in the foreign reading market, because many foreign translators are quite famous abroad. The Art of War has been translated into English for hundreds of years, and there are many versions available for its retranslation, which basically do not produce serious translation errors. However, for many Chinese texts that do not have English translations or only English translations by domestic translators, if they are only translated by foreign translators, mistranslation problems will easily occur due to the lack of grasp of the meaning of the original text. For example, the Art of War, if Wusun Lin’s translation can reach a wider audience, it will have positive significance in constructing a Chinese image in the culture of the translated language, spreading Chinese wisdom, and correcting mistranslations and distortions in previous translations (Li 2018: 28). But if only domestic translators are left to translate, foreign readers’ acceptance will not be high due to their low availability abroad and lack of understanding of foreign readers’ reading preferences. Therefore, it is advisable to adopt the mode of cooperative translation between foreign translators and domestic translators, which can not only be a gatekeeper in the correct understanding of the original text, but also open the foreign reading market with the reasonable help of foreign translators’ popularity and experience. The innovation of translation mode also means the innovation of communication channels, and the most traditional communication channel is in the form of books. But very often, foreign readers will lose their interest in reading when looking at the obscure translation before they understand the main content of the book. Modern elements and technologies can be adopted to launch a new mode of communication. In order to improve the reception of foreign readers to the translation of Chinese classics, we must first understand where the obstacles to their reading are in order to give the right remedy, and then a reasonable and effective feedback mechanism is very important. Readers are no longer passive recipients of the translation, but active participants in the process of translation output, which is worth learning from.

===Conclusion===

''The Art of War'' is a famous Chinese classic at home and abroad, summarizes the experience of warfare at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period and before, reveals a series of universal military laws, and puts forward many incisive rules of warfare. It can still have a space to play its role in the modern world to help people solve problems in their daily life. Since the first English translation appeared in 1905, several hundred years have passed, and a large number of excellent translations have contributed greatly to the dissemination of Chinese culture in the West. The translation and acceptance of ''The Art of War'' in the West is itself a communication process, in which the initiator, translator, target audience and feedback become different at different times, each with its own characteristics. The focus of translation also extends from military theory to the use of the ideas in ''The Art of War'' to solve problems in all aspects of life. The translation and dissemination process of the book is similar to the process of communication, with similar elements and links. Interpreting the wide acceptance of the English translation of ''The Art of War'' by foreign translators in the West from the perspective of communication science, we can see that it is feasible and necessary to introduce communication science into translation research, which can provide reference and insights for the selection of the original text, the selection of translators, the selection of translation strategies, the selection of initiators, the selection of communication channels, and the analysis of audiences in the practical activities of foreign translation of Chinese classics. In order to open up the overseas reading market, cooperation with famous foreign publishers is beneficial to select suitable original books for translation. In terms of translation quality, Chinese and foreign translators can cooperate in the process of translation. In light of media, the mode of communication with the help of modern elements can seek innovation, and a feedback system for readers’ participation in the translation process can look forward to establishment, so as to help Chinese language and culture to spread internationally more effectively.

===Abstract===

In 2015, the English translation of The Three Body Problem won the Hugo Award for Best Long Story Award. That marks the first time that a Chinese local science fiction novel has entered the international world and is recognized by the international community. It is a model for Chinese culture to go global. The book contains a lot of Chinese words, as well as sexist content. That can not only cause reading difficulties for foreign readers but also arouse the resistance of foreign readers who attach importance to gender equality. Therefore, the two translators, Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen, consciously added the necessary background information, and deleted and rewritten the content of discrimination against women, showing the subjectivity of the translators. Therefore, the popularity of the book Three Body Trilogy in the United States could not have been achieved without Liu Cixin's creation, and even more so without Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen's translation.

This paper briefly introduces the background information of the two translators, reviews the development of feminist translation theory, and studies the strategies and methods adopted by the translators in translating the novel from the perspective of feminist translation theory. From the case analysis, the author finds out that the two translators adopted strategies including footnotes, de-gendering, supplementation and hijacking to produce high-quality translations and explores the gender consciousness and the subjectivity of the translators reflected in the translation.

===Key words===

Feminist Translation Theory; ''The Three Body Problem''; translation strategies; the subjectivity of the translators

===Introduction===
The Three Body Problem is a long sci-fi novel written by Liu Cixin, a Chinese sci-fi author. In 2015, the English translation of the first book in the trilogy won the Hugo Award for Best Long Story Award given by the World Science Fiction Association at the 73rd World Science Fiction Conference in Spokane, Washington. That marks the first time that Chinese local science fiction novel has entered the international world and is recognized by the international community. The translator of the first book and the third book "Death's End" is Ken Liu, who is Chinese American. He is both a science fiction writer and a novel translator. The translator of the second book, The Dark Forest, is Joel Martinsen, an American translator who is a native English speaker. The popularity of the book Three Body Trilogy in the United States could not have been achieved without Liu Cixin's creation, and even more so without Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen's translation. Since its publication, "The Three Body Problem" has received much discussion in China due to its sexist sequences. How did it gain wide circulation and popularity in the Western countries that value gender equality? This paper will study the strategies and methods adopted by the translators in translating the novel from the perspective of feminist translation theory and explore the gender consciousness and the subjectivity of the translators reflected in the translation.

===Literature Review===

The 21st century is an era where there are various modes of translation research, and Western countries have gained fruitful achievements in the study of translation theory. With the flourishing of feminism, translation research has undergone a major change, namely the "cultural turn" in the 1980s. In the 16th century, feminist thoughts emerged in England and France, which were leading the way in economic and social development. Feminist movements were carried out in society. In the second half of the 19th century and again in the 1950s, the feminist movement reached its peak. Feminist translation is one of the manifestations of the feminist movement in terms of discourse. Feminists pursued gender equality in literature and translation, creating a world of literature and translation that gave a voice to women. Subsequently, feminist translation theory first appeared on the historical stage. Sherry Simon, from a constructivist perspective, attempts to foreground the role of gender in translation, arguing that translation work simultaneously provokes and confuses the links between self and group, identity and alienation (Simon, 1996. 158). Simone De Beauvoir also argues that men and women explicitly affirm their brotherhood through their innate differences (De Beauvoir,1956:687).
Feminist translators believe that women have the same status as men and that translators have the same status as authors. They advocate translator subjectivity, and take gender factors as an important part of it. They believe that feminist translators can revise and rewrite the content of the original work that is not in line with feminism and discriminates against women. Luise Von Flotow, Canadian literary translator and translation theorist, published Translation and Gender: Translating in the “Era of Feminism” in 2004. This landmark work in feminist translation studies explains the relationship between translation and gender in terms of theory and practice, and explores three translation strategies commonly used by feminist translators, namely, prefaces and footnotes, supplements, and "hijacking."（Flotow, 2004:157）。
It is the tireless efforts of feminist translation researchers that have led to a major breakthrough in the field of translation studies. It has had a tremendous impact on people's traditional thinking, providing a new interpretation of translation studies and overturning the traditional translation principle of "fidelity". In short, feminist translation theory has continued to develop. People have begun to abandon traditional translation theories and strategies in order to completely eliminate discrimination against women and achieve gender equality.

The domestic translation circle started late in the study of feminist translation theory. In 1999, Mu Lei, a renowned female translator, first noticed that gender problem was an important factor in translation, in her writing Heartstrings—the Interview with Jin Shenghua published in Chinese Translation Journal (Mu 1999). In his book Explorations in Contemporary Western Translation Theory, Liao Qiyi first explored the influence of feminism on translation (Liao 2000). And in Re-write the myths: Feminism and translation studies, he tries to reveal the role played by the feminist critical paradigm in translation studies by analyzing examples (Liao 2002). Ge Xiaoqin, in her article "The Essence of Feminist Translation", summarizes the essence of feminist translation and its contribution to translation studies and cultural criticism and points out the epistemology, practice and methodology brought by feminist translation, by discussing the ideological origins of feminist translation(Ge 2003). It can be seen that the period between 1999 and 2003 was the initial stage of feminist translation theory. There was no more in-depth and comprehensive research yet. In 2004, Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press began to introduce Flotow's masterpiece, Translation and Gender-Translating in the ‘Era of Feminism’, marking a dramatic change in translation studies. Thus, the year 2004 became a watershed year between the first and second phases, shaping the characteristics of feminist translation theory. It is necessary to mention the following masterpieces: In "The Origin, Development and Present Condition of Feminist Translation Theory in Canada," Liu Yaru examines the origin, development and present condition of Canadian feminist translation theory (Liu 2005)。In A Tentative Study on Women Translators’ Rewriting from the Perspective of Feminism—A Case Study of Two Chinese Translations of The Color Purple, Lü traces the gender metaphors in Western feminist translations from the perspective of cultural studies (Lü 2006). In 2004, the fourth issue of Chinese Translation Journal launched a column on "Feminist Translation Research", which included five representative papers. Since then, domestic research on feminist translation has been developing continuously. The number of articles on feminist translation theory has gradually increased. Articles introducing and discussing it from different perspectives enrich and develop feminist translation theory, and at the same time encourage more translation researchers to pay attention to the practical research of feminist translation theory and to use the theory to evaluate works, especially female translation works.

===Methods and Theories===
Feminist theory has brought to translation research not only a gender-conscious perspective, but a new mode of thinking and a different research direction. In addition to vigorously advocating women's voices and challenging the traditional conceptions of translation in the field, feminists also strive to motivate translators to take the initiative in the translation process and propose a female discourse based on gender identity. Many feminist scholars and translators have attempted to redefine the delicate relationship between the original text and the target text by completely overturning the traditional mainstream conceptions of translation theory. In terms of theoretical research and translation practice, Chamberlain(1992) explains that the central concept of feminist translation theory is the deconstruction of the original text in the language and the elimination of gender discrimination. Therefore, it is necessary to strike a balance between translation and target text to reveal the essence of feminine consciousness. Therefore, it is necessary to strike a balance between translation and the target text to reveal the essence of feminine consciousness. In China, a group of scholars led by Mu Lei categorized the main principles of Western feminist translation scholars into four major categories: gender and translation, deconstructing "fidelity," emphasizing the importance of the translator's subjectivity, and rewriting in the name of feminine consciousness.

In feminist translation practice, the subjectivity of translators is reflected not only in the choice of texts but also in the choice of translation strategies. Feminist translators firmly believe that translation is a political act, which provides them with ideological support for manipulating and interfering with the original text. Therefore, translation strategies are important for them to achieve their purposes, which can be mainly summarized as follows:

Prefaces and footnotes

Prefaces and footnotes in translations are the most common means by which translators put feminist translation theory into practice. Footnotes, usually located at the bottom of each page of the translation, offer some explanation of the translation so that the reader can better understand certain details of the translation. A preface, usually added before the whole translation, is used to briefly describe the whole translation project, recount the general idea of the original text, and describe some special methods used by the translator in the translation process. In terms of the purpose of feminist translation, adding a footnote and adding a preface have something in common. They both aim to reflect the translator's thoughts on feminism, promote the core values of feminism, criticize the patriarchy's unequal behavior toward women, and fight for more rights for women in general. Therefore, even if there is macho bullying of women in the original text, the translator does not hesitate to point it out and criticize it. In the implementation of these two approaches, the preface embodies the promotion of feminism as a whole, while the footnotes will show the deeper connotation of feminism in certain details.

De-gendering

De-gendering, or the "manipulation" of specific sexist expressions embedded in the original text (Han, 2007). This is a strategy often used by many feminist translators to make the image or voice of women visible. Because gender is an important component of feminism, feminist translators emphasize gender-conscious words, phrases, and sentences in their translations of the original text. De-gendering means replacing words such as "he" and "his" with "she" and "her" and phrases such as "man in office and power" with "man in office and power" in an attempt to avoid or reduce male discourse and introduce female words into the translation to highlight female subjectivity. In feminist translation, "man" or "he" is not the only word that refers to all people in general.

Supplementation

Adding to the target text in one certain part of the text is also an important method of feminist translation theory. In fact, this method is not unique to feminist translation, but is also common in many traditional translation practices. In order to eliminate the differences between two cultures, translators can make appropriate additions to better transform the original text into a translation, thus satisfying the reading habits and cultural needs of the target language readers.

Hijacking

If supplementation is a more moderate approach in feminist translation, hijacking is a very radical approach. Supplementation means that even though the supplemented content embodies the feminist character, translators still make appropriate and reasonable additions based on the semantics of the original. "Hijacking" is a feminist translation strategy proposed by Flotow. (Flotow.1991(2):69-84) "Hijacking" refers to the manipulation of a text by a female translator without changing the specific message of the original text in an attempt to gain new meaning. Feminist translators rewrite the text according to their own preferences and subjective intentions. They modify many masculine words, such as "woman and man" and "her or his". In order to highlight the position of women in the text and make their voices heard. Feminist translators have rewritten the language in a feminist way. This approach can be used to reduce or eliminate the sexism revealed in the original text by changing the vocabulary of the original text or even partially abridging the translation. The use of hijacking in translation projects has been the subject of much controversy. Opponents argue that it has deviated significantly from the original work and is inconsistent with the translation project itself, as well as with the author herself. Feminist translators argue that "hijacking" is not only a necessary translation method in translation projects, but also an important means for translators to reshape and recreate the original work.

===Brief Introduction of The Three Body Problem===
The Three Body series written by Liu Cixin consists of three parts, The Three Body Problem, The Dark Forest, and Death's End. It was published by Science Fiction World from 2006 to 2010. Based on the three-body problem, an intractable mystery in the field of physics, the series depicts from a macro perspective a vast universe where numerous civilizations exist, each vastly different from the other, yet facing similar survival choices. The author explores human nature in depth from the perspective of science fiction. With its grand layout and sublime meaning, the book has been hailed as the most outstanding science fiction novel in modern Chinese history. It was a turning point in the development of Chinese science fiction. The English translation of the novel was nominated for the 2014 Nebula Award of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, and later won the 2015 Hugo Award for Best Long Story Award. This is the first time for an Asian to appear on the list of winners of the Hugo Awards. This is also an important step for Chinese science fiction to go global. It is considered a milestone for Chinese science fiction. In addition to the English translation, it has also been translated into nine languages, including Korean, Turkish, French, Spanish, German, Hungarian, and Vietnamese, showing the overseas influence of the book.

===Brief Introduction of the author and the translators===
Liu Cixin is a Chinese science fiction writer born in 1963. From 1999 to 2006, he won the Galaxy Award, China's most prestigious literary and scientific fiction award. And in 2015, he received the Hugo Award, becoming the first Asian writer to win this award. His representative works include the short story "Wandering Earth".

Ken Liu is a Chinese-American science fiction writer and translator, dedicated to writing science fiction and translating Chinese science fiction and literary stories. His first award-winning book, The Paper Menagerie, won the international awards including Nebula and Hugo Awards for literary works. He is responsible for the translation of the first and third books of The Three Body Series. The first English translation won the 2015 Hugo Award for Best Novel, and the third was shortlisted for the 2017 Hugo Award for Best Long Novel. He grew up in America, and was influenced and nurtured by gender equality, equality for all, and the gender equality movement from an early age. At the same time, Ken Liu's parents are Chinese and grew up in China. Therefore he was also influenced by Chinese culture from an early age. That enabled him to have a cultural and linguistic advantage in translating "The Three Body Problem".

Joel Martinsen is an American translator. He has focused on Chinese language and literature since he was provided with Chinese courses in high school. He had a Master degree in the Modern Chinese Literature at Beijing Normal University. As the translator of the second volume of The Three-Body, Martinsen is qualified enough for his academic background as well as high Chinese language proficiency.

===A Case Study on the English Translation of The Three-Body Problem under Feminist Translation Theory===

Reading through The Three Body Problem, it is easy to see that the entire work has a negative assessment of the female community, and discriminatory content against women is commonplace. Western society has always attached much importance to gender equality, at least to maintain political correctness. In order to make the work acceptable to readers in Western countries, optimize the reading experience and reduce their resistance, the translator's role is crucial. Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen have undoubtedly put in a lot of effort to make The Three Body Problem win many awards in the World Science Fiction Literary Awards and gain the praise of many readers. In this section, a case study of the English translation of The Three Bodies will be presented from feminist translation theory.

De-gendering

Feminist translation emphasizes the subjectivity of the translator and proposes a "gender-neutral" concept of translation, aiming at eliminating gender discrimination in language and establishing a gender-equal language.

Example 1: 对于普通的女性，也许时间能够渐渐愈合这些创伤，毕竟，“文革“中有她这样遭遇的女性太多了，比起她们中的很多人，她算是幸运的。但叶文洁是一位科学女性。

Translation: For most people, perhaps time would have gradually healed these wounds. After all, during the Cultural Revolution, many people suffered fates similar to hers, and compared to many of them, Ye was relatively fortunate. But Ye had the mental habits of a scientist.

Analysis: In The Three Body Problem, female characters are always more negative than male characters. Female characters are always considered lucky rather than capable after they succeed in making something. The translator has a high degree of gender consciousness. The translator replaces the words “普通女性”,“女性”,“科学女性” with "people" and "scientist" in this sentence, so as to prevent gender discrimination and to reflect gender awareness.

Example 2: 那是最不可能令孩子，特别是女孩子入迷的音乐了
Translation: That was the kind of music that shouldn’t have mesmerized a kid.

Analysis: The original text implies that girls are less able to understand Bach's music than boys. In order to avoid gender discrimination by associating women with a particular trait, the translator changed the word "女孩子" to "kid" in the translation. The translator cannot recreate the characterization, but can de-genderize the language when dealing with sexist language.

Example 3: 菲律宾贡献给世界的第三个美女政治家，也是在这个职位上危机前后跨越两个时代的一位。
Translation: The administration of this Filipino politician had straddled the pre- and post-crisis eras.
分析：Ms. Sae was the first female Secretary-General of the United Nations, with distinguished achievements in international negotiation and handling of international disputes. Ms. Sae's achievements are not related to her appearance, and if the adjective "beautiful" is used in the translation, it may lead to speculation and dissatisfaction among readers. The tone of the original text shows that women are not competent enough to take on important political roles or to lead the wars of the universe. This is a rigid perception and stereotype of women in society.

Hijacking
Feminist translators will downplay or remove strongly feminized depictions. Under a patriarchal society, women are seen as objects of appreciation. The male-centric consciousness is shown by patriarchal language that excessively focuses on the depiction of women's appearance, bodies, etc. It reflects prejudice against women, ignores their inner character and stifles their autonomous identity. For this reason, feminist translators actively exert the subjectivity of the translators, trying to break the center of male discourse and re-establish a positive and positive image of women.

Example 4: 美丽女孩双手托起晶亮的金属球，让人联想到身材苗条的艺术体操运动员，她露出那动人的笑，用悦耳的声音说。

Translation: The young woman raised the bright metal sphere before with both hands, as though she were getting ready to start a gymnastics routine. Smiling, she said…

Analysis: In the above example, there are some words and expressions of female description. In the ancient traditional gender ethics, women were always regarded as subordinate and subservient to men under the domination of a male-dominated society. But this traditional view has been severely criticized by modern feminists, who desire linguistic equality. In view of this, the translator has consciously cut down and modified the descriptions of feminine features. In particular, in the original text, descriptions such as "beautiful woman", "slim figure", and "sweet smile and voice" are absent from the translation, which to a certain extent weaken the sense of gender discrimination.

Example 5: 她像个小泼妇一样一天与那六个女人打好几次架
Translation: She fought the other women, sometimes several times a day.

Analysis：The word "泼妇" is a derogatory term used to describe women who is rude and unreasonable. Here, the translator has left this sexist word out of the translation. And the translation maintains a positive image of women.

Footnote

Example 6:“你怎么又会有这种想法？那可并不一定，这是乱纪元。”追随者说着转向周文王，“姬昌，给我些鱼干吃吧。”
“不行！”周文王断然说道，“我也是勉强吃饱的，要保证我能走到朝歌，而不是你。”

Translation: "What makes you think that? There’s no way to be certain. I told you, this is a Chaotic Era.” Follower turned to King Wen. “May I have some dried fish?”
“Absolutely not,” King Wen’s tone brooked no disagreement, “I barely have enough for myself. We must guarantee that I make it to Zhao Ge, not you.

Translator’s note: Zhao Ge was the capital of Shang China, where King Zhou held court.

Analysis: The Three Body Problem is a science fiction novel in which the main character, Wang Miao, enters the physical world with the help of equipment and explores the game scenes himself. The reader does not know that the history of Warring States Period and the destination is "朝歌". Considering the lack of background information in the novel, the translator adds information to the text.

Example 7: 后来的事实证明她这次赌博是正确的，“文革”还没有结束，她的丈夫已经部分恢复了职位，十一届三中全会后，他迅速升到了副部级。

Translation: Her gamble paid off. Even before the end of the Cultural Revolution, her husband was partially restored to his old position. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh CPC Central Committee, he was soon promoted to the level of a deputy minister.

Translator’s note: This meeting marked the beginning of the “Reform and Opening-up” policy and was seen as the moment when Deng Xiaoping became the leader of China.

Analysis: In the Chinese history, the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party is considered to be a turning point for China. Since the reform and opening up, Deng Xiaoping delivered an important speech at the Great Hall of the People, proposing a rapid shift in the focus of China's work to economic development and construction. More importantly, the conference played an important role in promoting social order and improving people's living standards. Foreign readers may have difficulty understanding this terminology. Therefore, additional information seems to be necessary.

Supplement

Cultural differences between the two languages determine the untranslatability of the literature. Therefore, the compensation of background knowledge and information is essential in the translation process. Supplement tries to achieve the same purpose as the preface and footnotes in a different way.

Example 10: “红色联合“的指挥官心急如焚，他并不惧怕大楼的守卫者，那二百多名“四.二八”战士，与诞生于1966年初、经历过大检阅和大串联的“红色联合”相比要稚嫩许多。

Translation: The Red Union commander was anxious, though not because of the defenders he faced. The more than two hundred Red Guards of the April Twenty-eight Brigade were mere greenhorns compared with the veteran Red Guards of the Red Union, which was formed at the start of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in early 1966. The Red Union had been tempered by the tumultuous experience of revolutionary tours around the country and seeing Chairman Mao in the great rallies in Tiananmen Square.

Analysis: The story takes place during the Cultural Revolution, and the Red Union is a political product of that period. It is difficult for foreign readers to understand this term with Chinese characteristics. Therefore, the translator intentionally adds more background knowledge and information to cope with the cultural default, even though there is no additional explanation of the Red Society in the original text.

===Conclusion===
Inspired by feminist translation theories, translation scholarship is increasingly enriched with insights on gender consciousness reflected in the translation process. It is undeniable that feminist translation theory has made great contributions to promoting gender equality and empowering women under a male-centered social system. This paper analyzes some examples of the English translation of The Three Body Problem from the feminist translation theory. Through the above analysis, it is found that the translators Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen show a strong feminist consciousness in the translation process, using feminist translation strategies such as de-gendering, footnoting, supplementing and hijacking to avoid the contents that discriminate and dwarf females in the original work, effectively translate the Chinese characteristic vocabulary and produce high-quality translations.

<center>'''Brief Talk on the Standard of Translation of Chinese Songs'''</center>

<center>Liu Chang</center>

===Abstract===
In the process of human civilization development, music plays an important role in expressing and cultivating people’s sentiments. While appreciating foreign music, we should also keep our self-confidence in culture and commit to bring Chinese music into the ears of foreign listeners so that they can hear the voice of the China. That’s what makes the translation of lyrics become the priority of the priorities. By summarizing the common ground of functional equivalence theory, skopos theory and other mature translation theories, this paper explores the general standard of translating Chinese songs into English. Meanwhile, according to the particularity of lyrics and the diversity of music style, this paper also discusses the particular standard of translating Chinese songs into English. On this basis, some English versions of Chinese songs are selected to analyze the gains and losses during the process of translation which is under the guidance of the mentioned translation standard.

===Key words===
lyrics translation; Chinese music; Chinese into English

===Introduction===
With the deepening of globalization, economic and cultural exchanges have become more and more frequent around the world. In recent decades, with the deepening of China's opening up to the outside world, Chinese audiences have been able to listen to more and more foreign songs, especially English songs, which are popular among young Chinese. On the other hand, few Chinese songs can reach out to the world. A big reason for this lies in the translation of lyrics. In terms of The Translation of Chinese songs, excellent Chinese songs lack the English versions that match them, which makes it difficult for them to enter the foreign market. However, due to the differences in the expression habits of Chinese and Western languages, as well as the special form of lyrics, the English translation of songs often requires the translator to grasp the emotion of songs accurately and the general idea of lyrics on the premise of a high level of language skills, so as to make the translated version vivid. In addition, due to the particularity of lyrics translation, the translator's ultimate goal should not only be to make the lyrics be appreciated, but also to make them be sung. Therefore, the translator should have certain knowledge of music theory, so as to pay attention to the fit between words and songs in the process of translation and make the translation have certain singability. In order to achieve this, translators must follow the corresponding translation standards to carry out their own translation work.

===Standards to Be Followed in the Translation of Songs===
In the process of translating Chinese songs into English, translators need to follow some standards and be guided by them. In this paper, these standards are divided into general standards and special standards. General standards, namely the standards that the translator should generally abide by in the process of translation work. These standards are applicable to any stylistic translation task and are the basic rules of translation work. In contrast to the general standard, the particularity standard, as the name implies, is the standard that should be observed for the text of individual style. In the process of Translating Chinese songs into English, translators should not only comply with the general requirements of translation work, but also take into account the special requirements involved in the task of song translation. For example, since it is song translation, the translation must be singable, and in order to make the translated version of the song singable, it will inevitably put forward higher requirements for translation work. Therefore, in order to meet this requirement, the translator should follow the corresponding standards for translation work.

(1)General Standards

As we all know, the history of human civilization is a history in which different cultures blend, penetrate and influence each other. In the process of communication between different cultures, languages are not interlinked, so translation comes into being. It can be said that the history of translation lasts as long as the history of interaction between different human civilizations. With the deepening of globalization, the exchanges between countries, regions and cultures are more and more frequent, so the demand for translation is also more and more exuberant. Especially since modern times, many translators and translatologists at home and abroad have put forward relevant translation theories, which contain corresponding translation criteria. These standards are called very different things, but they actually mean much the same thing.

The American translation theorist Eugene Nida proposed the theory of dynamic equivalence in his book Language Culture and Translating. The core idea is that "translating does not seek rigid correspondence on the surface of words, but achieves functional equivalence between the two languages." He pointed out that "translation is the semantic and stylistic reproduction of the source language information in the most appropriate, natural and equivalent language." (2004:21) Thus it can be seen that one of the tasks of translation work is to express meaning and accurately convey the original information. German Translation theorist Hans Vermeer also formally proposed The Skopos Theory in Basic Knowledge of Translation Theory co-authored with Rice. There are three principles in skopos theory of translation. The first principle is the principle of purpose, that is, all actions in the process of translation are determined by their purpose. The second principle is the coherence principle, that is, the translated text should conform to the standard of intralingual coherence; The third principle is the fidelity principle, that is, the translated text should conform to the standard of interlingual coherence. Therefore, translation work should not only achieve the meaning, but also smooth. At the same time, due to different purposes, translators need to adopt different translation strategies and follow other standards, which involves the particularity standard, which is not listed here. In addition to western translation theorists, Yan Fu, a Chinese translator at the end of the Qing Dynasty, also mentioned in his translation work: "译事三难：信，达，雅。求其信已大难矣，顾信矣不达，虽择犹不择也，则达尚焉。" (2012).

Its meaning is: the first to be faithful to the ideological content of the original text, namely the so-called "faithfulness"; Second, the translation should be standardized and easy to understand, namely the so-called "expressivess"; Third, we should pay attention to the style of the original text and the language rhetoric features of the original text, that is, the so-called "elegance". From this point of view, it is the best for translation work to conform to the style of the original text and show the elegance and interest after expressing its meaning and fluency.

To sum up, the general standard of song translation, that is, the universal standard of translation, is to first achieve the meaning, accurately convey the content of the song; Secondly, to do smooth, no grammatical mistakes, coherent language; Finally, if it fits the style of the original word of the song, it is the best.

(2)Special Standards

In the translation of lyrics, we should not only abide by the general standards of translation work, but also adapt to the specific style of lyrics. Since it is the lyrics, it must be matched with the tune, and the collocation here does not simply mean that the lyrics can be "stuffed" into the tune and barely sung, but that the lyrics and song style is appropriate, the iambic fit, the rhythm is neat, in line with the poetic language characteristics of the lyrics, with strong singability. Therefore, for the translation of lyrics, there should be the following standards:

First, rhythm matching, which means that when translating and matching songs, we should try to make the translated words match the beat, rhythm type and melody trend of the original song. Xue Fan pointed out, "The number of words in a translation is limited by the number of notes in the original song, the sentence pattern of the translation is restricted by the structure of the music, and the cadence of the translation is restricted by the change of rhythm and the trend of the melody." (1997) In view of this reality, English translation of Chinese songs should follow the following matching rules: the number of syllables in the translated version should be equal to the number of words in the original; The sentence of the translation should be consistent with the sentence of the original; The pause and pause of the translation should be consistent with the original air inlet and breathing. (Chen Liming, 2010)

Second, it is the choice of rhyme. In song translation and matching, the choice of words and rhyme should not only conform to the mood of music, but also care about the content of lyrics. "Rhyme should not make up rhyme, and rhyme should not harm righteousness". (Chen Liming, 2010) However, in the process of song translation, some variation can be used to meet the needs of rhythm and rhythm, but this degree should be controlled. The bottom line of this degree lies in whether the artistic conception and general idea of the original will be changed after the translation. That is to say, in the translation, the original text can be sublated in order to preserve the musicality to a certain extent, but the artistic conception of the original song itself and the core idea to be conveyed must not be lost.

Thirdly, translation is restricted by song style to a certain extent. For example, Chinese ancient songs are mostly accompanied by Chinese national Musical Instruments such as guzheng, flute and xiao. The tunes are melodious and beautiful, and the original words are usually neatly phrased, classical and elegant, with unique poetic characteristics of China. The corresponding English translation words should also have corresponding characteristics. And modern pop music, for example, the best feature of this song is popularity, compared with the elegant music, the music lyrics is quite simple, there is no obstacle on understanding, it is necessary for pop music became popular, then the corresponding English translation version should also consider the characteristics of popularization to translation of words. Therefore, when translating different types of songs into English, the translator should not only make great efforts in the selection of words and try to conform to the poetic characteristics of the original words, but also pay attention to the fact that the translated words can still produce the same emotional effect as the original words when matching with the tunes of the music type. This is also an important factor that makes Chinese songs still singable after being translated into English.

===Instance Analysis===
The purpose of translating Chinese songs into English is to let the world listen to China's voice and make Chinese culture go abroad. And to do that, two types of music are essential. One of them is Chinese pop songs, because pop music is the most mainstream music genre in today's music market, and also the music genre with the largest audience, which is deeply loved by young people. Young people are the most dynamic group, and conquering their ears means opening a market; The second is the ancient style music, in recent years, the ancient style music boom, more and more of our people, the music on the basis of the profound Chinese culture, the lyrics are very with Chinese characteristics, the music if you can go out and let the world hear, to appreciate the world, will no doubt greatly highlight China's cultural self-confidence, It can also contribute to the cause of cultural power. Therefore, this paper will take the above two kinds of music as examples to select representative works and analyze the standards of lyrics translation reflected in the process of lyrics translation.

(1)Analysis of Ancient Style Music

First, let's see some translation of ancient music. In recent years, the most popular ancient style song in China is "凉凉", which has a beautiful melody and sounds, with a strong Chinese style charm and its lyrics are also very rich in Chinese culture. (Wu Xiaorui, Li Yuchen, Fang Xiaoqing 2021) Therefore, in the process of translation, we should not only take into account the musicality of the lyrics, but also reflect the general idea of the lyrics. There are many English translations of "凉凉", and Jonny's version is selected as an example for analysis. (Jonny, whose Chinese name is Long Ze, is an American network anchor, who once translated "凉凉" into English and sang it.) In the English version, most parts follow the corresponding standards of lyrics translation, but there are also some shortcomings, which will be analyzed with examples one by one.

Example 1:

Chinese Version: 凉凉夜色为你思念成河，化作春泥呵护着我。

English Version: Thoughts of you are like a river, comforting chilling my soul.

In this sentence, the translator conveys the meaning of the original text well, and fully embodies the core words of the original text, namely "思念成河" and "呵护着我". Besides, the core word "凉凉", which runs through the song, is also expressed through the word "chilling". Although the two images of "夜色" and "春泥" in this sentence are not translated, the meaning of the lyrics is not lost, nor the artistic conception of the lyrics is damaged. Because the core meaning of this word still wants to express: I miss you very much, this feeling makes me very warm, very comfortable. So it doesn't matter that "夜色" and "春泥" are not translated, and the absence of these two images doesn't hurt the integrity of the lyrics in English. But the fly in the ointment is that "河" and "我" still rhyme to some extent in the original version, but not in the English version. To a certain extent, it reduces the musicality and singability.

Example 2:

Chinese Version : 凉凉三生三世恍然如梦

English Version: Past present and future

In this sentence, the translator quite succinctly summarizes the meaning of the original word, "三生三世恍然如梦" is directly translated into past present and future, one scene flashes before my eyes, just like a dream. This translation does not have much problem in conveying the meaning and artistic conception of the original word, but the author thinks that the English version of the lyrics does not have high singability, because this translation does not conform to the rhythm collocation in the singability standard of lyrics translation mentioned above. The lyrics in the paragraph of the longer beat, the Chinese version is filled in a full ten words, while the English only used four words, relatively far-fetched, the singer's requirements are very high. As mentioned before, when translating and matching songs, it is necessary to try to make the translated words match the beat, rhythm type and melody direction of the original song. Therefore, the translation of this sentence does not meet the singability standard of lyrics translation.

（2）Analysis of Pop Music

Pop music is the most mainstream music genre in the music market, and it is also the most popular music genre among young people. Next, the author will select the English version of Someone like Me to analyze the standards of lyrics translation reflected in it. (Translated by MelodyC2E, Shanghai International Studies University)

Example 3:

Chinese Version: 怎么二十多年到头来还在人海里浮沉

English Version: How come after all that I've been through I still suffer vicissitudes

This translation is considered by the author to be a very typical expressive and singable translation. First of all, the English version fully conveys the original meaning, that is, after all these years, I am still adrift. Here, the translator has blurred twenty years into "All that I've been through", which has no impact on the original meaning, but more vicissitudes of life. And then the "人海浮沉" is expressed in terms of "vicissitudes", which perfectly expresses the mood and meaning of the original word. On top of that, "Through" and "Vicissitudes" also rhymes with singability

Example 4:

Chinese Version: 像我这样碌碌无为的人你还见过多少人

English Version: Someone busy with his needs I'm sure you know quite a few

This sentence also achieves both the meaning and the singability of the lyrics. Especially, in the later "I'm sure you know quite a few", the interrogative sentence of the original word is changed into an affirmative sentence, telling the depression of his heart in an affirmative tone, which perfectly reflects the depression contained in the song. It not only conforms to the general standard of lyrics translation, but also conforms to the special standard of lyrics translation.

===Conclusion===
Song has always been a popular art form and an indispensable supplement in everyone's life. In recent years, our country also has stressed cultural self-confidence, to be on a path to cultural power, therefore, to our country outstanding music to the international this task is essential, and the translation of the lyrics is a top priority, with songs only vividly expresses to melody tactfully to the tune of lyrics collocation, can pass into the foreign audience's ears, and make the world hear the voice of China. All this can only be realized on the premise of following the two major standards of lyric translation, namely the general standard and the special standard.

<center>'''Why Chinese Online Fantasy Novels Can Be Good Translation Materials: based on the Study of Dragon Raja
'''</center>

<center>Liu Lele</center>

===Abstract===
Appropriate language materials are need to be translated into English and spread globally, so as to promote the overseas dissemination of Chinese culture. Based on the the comprehensive consideration of communication content, it can be seen that Dragon Raja, an online novel written by jiang Nan, is smilar to the fantasy novels which are a hit among readers in the western market, and it also has a popular narritive structure. Although it is a novel, its highlight lies in the plot rather than the style, so it can be translated into English using communicative translation strategy and machine translation, and published on Wuxiaworld, a popular online novel platform in the US. Therefore, it is feasible to take Dragon Raja as a translation material for the international communication of Chinese culture.

===Key words===
Dragon Raja; translation material; communication; fantasy

===Introduction===
There is no superior culture, but there are strong and weak ones. According to Toury's multiple systems theory, Chinese culture is relatively weak compared with British and American culture. Chinese literature has been marginalized in the world literature system for a long time, so when entering the field of English literature, it is usually dominated in the field of English literature. In the past few decades, the translation of contemporary Chinese literature to the English world has not been very successful. Readers in the English-speaking world object to translated literature from any culture, and it is very difficult for translated literature to enter the English world. Although there were two large-scale translation and introduction activities of Panda Series and Great China Library with a lot of material and human resources invested, but the result was not ideal. Although Dragon Raja, as an online literature, can not represent Chinese culture, its exciting plot and low barrier of readers would make it a good guide in achieving the "go global" strategy.
===Standards to Be Followed in the Translation of Songs===
In the process of translating Chinese songs into English, translators need to follow some standards and be guided by them. In this paper, these standards are divided into general standards and special standards. General standards, namely the standards that the translator should generally abide by in the process of translation work. These standards are applicable to any stylistic translation task and are the basic rules of translation work. In contrast to the general standard, the particularity standard, as the name implies, is the standard that should be observed for the text of individual style. In the process of Translating Chinese songs into English, translators should not only comply with the general requirements of translation work, but also take into account the special requirements involved in the task of song translation. For example, since it is song translation, the translation must be singable, and in order to make the translated version of the song singable, it will inevitably put forward higher requirements for translation work. Therefore, in order to meet this requirement, the translator should follow the corresponding standards for translation work.

===Communication Value===
It is true that online literature generally does not have profound ideas, rich cultural values, exquisite art forms and beautiful literary language, which we expect most to go global. It is these parts of Chinese culture that always find hard to "go global" (封寿炎, 2019). Viewing from the popularity of Li Ziqi's video on Youtube, the worldwide popularity of Japanese anime One Piece and Naruto, and the popularity of Kpop in European and American countries, cultural exports largely rely on low-level cultural forms.
Important characters in the first two books of the Dragon Raja series, such as the black dragon Nidhogg, Jormungandr, the king of earth and mountains, and Odin, King of the gods, are borrowed from Norse mythology; And the story of the third book is set in Japan, the main characters Minamoto Chisei, Minamoto Chime and many other characters are from the Japanese myth Ancient Events. On the basis of Nordic mythology and Japanese mythology, Dragon Raja draws a grand picture of the world and forms a huge world outlook. Although the settings of these cultural elements are only superficial, these novel cultural elements presented in simple words can really attract readers, thus helping to stimulate foreign readers' interest in traditional Chinese culture and the daily life of Chinese people, and the theme of the novel focuses on youth and adventure, which meets the emotional needs of teenagers and even adults, and conveys to readers good qualities and values of human being.
Although the characters of Dragon Raja do not directly convey the elements of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Chinese culture, such as Yin-yang, Tao, shu and Qi, the characters and their daily life can reflect the features of many Chinese teenagers and families. Moreover, language itself is a component of culture. From this point of view, the mutual transformation between languages is cultural communication. Dragon Raja is written in Chinese, the work naturally contains rich Chinese culture. It is helpful to attract foreign readers to know more about China.

===Content of Communication===
Dragon Raja is a series of long fantasy novels created by Jiangnan. The work tells the story of a young man, Lu Mingfei, who receives an invitation from kassel College, a mysterious college in the outer suburbs of Chicago. From then on, he sets foot on the magical course of fighting with dragons. On September 1, 2009, the series began to be serialized in the magazine Manke , which was first published on the same day. The first to the fourth books were successively published by Changjiang Publishing House from April 2010 to October 2015. The fifth book was serialized on all platforms of China Literature Group from May 15, 2018.

3.1 The Theme Conforms to the Preference of the Western Market
At the macro level, translation activities always take place and function under a certain social and cultural background. The British and American cultural markets prefer science fiction. Currently, the best-selling work by A Chinese writer in the British and American markets is the sci-fi novel the Three-Body Problem. The Three-Body Problem trilogy started with The English version. After seven years of development, it has been exported to 28 languages and sold more than 3 million copies in foreign languages. This shows the importance of science fiction in the hearts of Western readers. Many classic Chinese literary works, even traditional martial arts novels, lack the corresponding cultural literacy for foreign readers. After translation, Tian Long Ba Bu, one of Cha's representative works on traditional martial arts, received less clicks on overseas novel reading platforms than online fantasy novel Coilong.
"Dragon" in the construction of a "second world" is the Chinese style western-style overhead and magic fusion of two different types of work, draw lessons from the Nordic myth and other world system framework, formed a unique and marvelous fantasy epic and Oriental elements throughout, showed the failure of lonely child LuMingFei slew a dragon in the "dragon world" counter attack. As a localized fantasy novel, this emerging literary genre shapes an overhead world, closely related to sci-fi, fantasy and martial arts novels with a strong fantasy nature, yet not restricted by science and humanities. It is not limited by humanities, which means that the cultural load and obstacles of Dragon clan will be greatly reduced in the process of reaching foreign audiences. Science fiction, TV series and movies are popular in the West. Wuxia is a unique charm element of Chinese culture. The combination of the three forms the content advantage of the Dragon Clan as a material selection for translation.
Dragon is a kind of magical animal, it does not exist, but there are legends about it all over the world. "Game of Thrones" and "How to Train Your Dragon" have made dragons a hot topic in the West. Nowadays it is difficult to come up with a unified definition of the image of the dragon. The dragon is both good and evil, but no one can deny the powerful power of the dragon. The image of dragons in the modern West is not entirely negative, with Wales, for example, still using the legendary heroic red dragon as its national flag. With the close communication between Chinese and Western cultures in the information age, the implication of "dragon" in the west has become positive and positive.
It is worth mentioning that in The Dragon Race, the name and image of the dragon refer to the setting in The Nordic mythology, which is more similar to the violent and powerful image in the Western culture rather than the auspicious symbolic meaning in Chinese culture. Therefore, it can greatly reduce the strangeness of European and American readers when reading this novel.

3.2 The Storyline is Popular
In addition to cultural background, the depth of a literary work's story is also a barrier to reaching an audience. Some people jokingly refer to classics as "things that everyone knows, but nobody reads." China's four great classics, really read how many people, let alone foreign readers. In addition to the cultural load and low knowledge content, the story is highly readable, which is one of the strengths of Dragon Clan.
By analyzing the story lines of harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and other popular fantasy novels in the Western market, it can be found that their essence takes the adventure of the "weak" in the fantasy world as the main narrative clue, and constantly creates conflicts in the linear and closed narrative structure as the main narrative strategy. The protagonist's growth in a new space and time different from reality is taken as the narrative theme (Li Jianxin, Yu Kunxian, 2021). As "dragon clan" publishing house of a marketing language: the East "Harry Potter". Although the two novels have similar early story development, they have their own unique world structure. "Dragon" hero Lu Ming is not a child by his parents foster in his uncle's house, and "Harry Potter" hero Harry is living in the uncle's house; Both characters embark on a magical journey based on an admission letter; In Dragons, Kassel Teaches dragon slaying, while in Harry Potter, Hogwarts teaches magic. The roots of both magic and language are bloodlines. However, the subsequent dragon-slaying and the development of the characters make dragons radically different from Harry Potter.
Ordinary high school students Lu Mingfei set foot on the adventure of dragon slaying journey, his daily life, personality in addition to adding some fantasy factors and ordinary people are not too different, so can let the same as readers have a sense of substitution and stimulation. The ups and downs of the plot, rich and strange imagination, each charming character personality, greatly meet the young people's curiosity about the world and seek resonance in the book psychology.

===Translating Process===
As a fantasy novel integrating Chinese culture, Japanese culture and Nordic mythology, Dragon Clan contains a lot of culture-loaded information, but these words and expressions have been translated, so the translator can refer to the translation of Nordic mythology and Ancient Events when translating. For example, the word "yan Ling" in the book, whose function is similar to the magic spell in Harry Potter, is actually not owned by Chinese, but borrowed from Japanese by the author, from the Japanese myth "Ancient Events".

4.1 The Difficulty of Translation
Even when faced with some difficult cultural expressions, translators can flexibly deal with them by using substitution and interpretation. People from different countries, nationalities and regions all live on the same earth. The commonness of people's biological attributes, social attributes, humanity and even psychological and emotional experiences is the main aspect of contradiction. So culture is basically translatable.

4.2 Translation Strategy
Stylistic type is the most important, objective and stable basis to determine the diversification of translation standards. According to Peter Newmark, text has three basic functions. According to its main functions, translation can be divided into communicative translation and semantic translation. The text type determines the translation method. Communicative translation is mainly used for texts with prominent information functions, such as tourism texts, advertisements and news, which emphasize the realization of the communicative purpose of the target text. Therefore, translation should not stick to the expression form of the original text, but should follow the form popular with the target language readers. However, semantic translation is mainly used in the texts that focus on the expression function. For the five types of serious literary works, such as poetry, prose, drama and novel, the content and form of the translation should be consistent with the original text, and the meaning and form of the original text should be reproduced as much as possible, because the form of these works is also a part of literary aesthetics.
With the explosive development of network literature, the themes of network articles are various and emerge endlessly, and some of them are even difficult to define precisely what type they belong to. The Dragon Clan can be said to be a localized fantasy novel. Although it is called "novel", it is also a new product of the Internet. Strictly speaking, it does not belong to the traditional serious literary novel. However, it is not reasonable to categorize The Dragon clan as an informational text, because it also has the author's unique writing style. The main attraction of The Dragon clan is the story, not the writing. Whether the words are added, deleted or repaired does not affect the readers' understanding and love for the story. The main task of the translator is to convey the story rather than show the literary talent. Therefore, communicative translation can be adopted as the main strategy in translation.

4.3 Trial Translation
(1) 路明非在屏幕上无奈地打出“GG”（“GG”，指“Good Game”，在竞技类游戏中称赞对方玩得好，也是认负的意思），而后切出了游戏。屏幕上显示的最后一个场景，是十二艘人类巡洋舰以华丽的大和炮聚焦射击，把他的母巢化作了一滩血水。
Lu mingfei reluctantly typed "GG" (" GG "refers to" Good Game "in a competitive Game) on the screen before cutting out the Game. The final scene shown on the screen was twelve human cruisers firing in focus with their magnificent Yamato guns, turning his brood into a pool of blood.

His opponent is very good at micro control, with the use of Terran whose riflemen，capable of shooting in an instant，is extremely strong in the game. stood still pull out a gun shoot, gun ran, Lu MingFei's puppy can catch up, thus getting beaten up one by one.
路明非没啃声儿，切到QQ上，那个戴棒球帽的女孩头像还是灰色的，一动不动。对方没上线，又白等了。他抓了抓脑袋，有点失望。另一个头像倒是跳了起来，是个长得很欠的熊猫。
Lu Mingfei did not answer. Switch into QQ, the profile of a girl wearing a baseball cap stayed时态gray and quiet there. She wasn't online, and he was just waiting for nothing. Scratching his head, he felt a little upset. The other profile was active though，a very disturbing panda.
　　大脸猫头像跳闪，“诺诺”上线。
The profile of a big-face cat flickered, which means NONO got online.
路明非犹豫了一下，“是你？”
“Is that you?”hesitated a little, Lu Mingfei asked
“嗯，陈墨瞳。”诺诺的回答显得懒洋洋的，“没事上来打两盘。”
“Yeah,it’s me, Chen Motong.”She said carelessly,”Got no better things to do than some gaming.”
“你怎么知道我的ID？”
“How did you get my ID?”
“人肉搜索啊，嘿。你居然用‘明明’这种ID，像女孩似的，还有‘夕阳的刻痕’……你是人妖么？”
“Cyber manhunt. Hey, you took Mingming as your ID. Girlish! And “sunset”,are you sure you are not a ladyboy?
“这都能人肉到？千万保密，那是我来逗我弟玩的。”
“You even knew this?! Please keep this secret for me. That’s for playing some little tricks on my cousin.”
“开玩笑的啦，诺玛搜索到的，这对诺玛小菜一碟。你星际打得不错。”
“Just joking. It’s Noma, our intelligent computer, that got all this information. It’s a piece of cake for her. By the way, you are good at Starcraft.”
“行了，我都输给你了。”
“Come on, I lost to you.”
“是我输，诺玛和我一起打的，我们两个控制一家。最后我知道你在升三级基地，因为诺玛偷偷开了地图，看见了。”
“I should be the loser. I played the game with the help of Noma.
“作弊死全家！”路明非打出这句话。
“Cheaters will have his family completely died.” Lu Mingfei type this sentence.
只是随手，这话在群里大家随便说，没谁真的往心里去。
It’s just an online phrase that were often used and no one would take it seriously.
“我家只有我一个人。”诺诺回复。
“I’ve already got no family to lose.”answered Nono.
路明非愣了一下，“对不起。”
Lu Mingfei was stunned a little, and said,”sorry.”
“这有什么对不起的？”诺诺答得很平淡，“玩一盘？”
“Nothing to feel sorry about.”Nono said carelessly still,”Want a game?”
“没心情。”
“not in the mood.”
“失恋了？”
“Broke up with your girlfriend?”
路明非浑身一个激灵，诺诺像是个小巫婆似的，看穿了他的一切，叫他完全无处容身。
“Lu Mingfei was shocked. Nono’s like a little wizard, seeing through everything of him.He could hide nothing in front of her.
“还没有……我没有女朋友，当然不会失恋了，姐姐你想怎样啊？”他输入。
“How can I break up with my girlfriend when I don’t have a one? So what do you want? Big sister!”He typed.
“姐姐叫得还蛮甜的，”诺诺扔出一个龇牙咧嘴的笑脸，“来吧，说说到底怎么回事，我也许能帮上忙。”
“That’s sweet.”Nono sent him a grinning smile,”Alright, let’s hear it.Maybe I can help you.”
“你帮什么忙？你又不认识她。”
“I doubt that.You don’t know about her.”
“我是不认识陈雯雯。”小巫婆诺诺回复得极快。
“Yeah, I do know nothing about Chen Wenwen.”
“你到底知道多少？”路明非忽地很惊恐。
“How much do you know?”Lu Mingfei suddenly got frightened.
“太多了。”
“too much.”
“你们……到底是谁？”路明非手有点抖。
“Who are you?”Typed Lu Mingfei with trembling fingers.

===Translating Platform===
At present, the translation and introduction of traditional Chinese literary works often rely on paper publishing for transmission, while British and American publishers are very cautious in selecting foreign literary works for translation and publication. According to the Financial Times, between 1990 and 2012 only 4% of UK publications were translations (Jack 2015). Generally speaking, translated books are on the edge of a country's book publishing, and the proportion is much lower than that of local books. For example, the American book market is the largest in the world, but translated books only account for 3% of the total books (Fu Xiping 2015:18). Compared with classic books such as A Dream of Red Mansions, network literature is born and spread through the network platform. The overseas dissemination of Dragon Clan does not need to go through strict selection of foreign publishing market, which is also one of its advantages for selecting materials for foreign translation.

5.1 Online Literature Translation Website: Wuxiaworld
China's online literature has become an important force for "culture going abroad," according to the 2019 Urban Reading Report of "Ideological and Cultural Big Data Lab" jointly released by Guangming Daily, Tencent and JD.com. By 2018, nearly 70 Foreign language versions of Chinese web novels had attracted more than 10 million hits, attracting more than 20 million visitors. These readers spread across more than 20 countries and regions, mainly in Southeast Asia, Europe and America. The vigorous development of contemporary network literature has laid a good foundation for the overseas dissemination of Dragon Clan. Currently, there are more than 100 online literature translation websites in the world, among which Wuxiaworld is worth mentioning. Founded by Chinese-American Lai Jingping, the website is now the world's largest platform for translating Chinese novels into English. At first, it mainly provided translation and introduction of wuxia novels, but now almost all types of online novels from all countries are serialized. In terms of specific operation, we can serialize the translation of "Dragon Clan" by chapter to restore the experience. Rather than having the translator complete the translation and then upload it to the platform.
"Coiling Dragon" is a fantasy novel translated by Lai Jingping, founder of Wuxiaworld.com, which has won high praise on the website. It seems that the translator has achieved functional equivalence to a large extent, and many foreign readers' views on The novel are similar to those of Chinese readers. Therefore, the platform translation and communication strategies of Dragon Clan can be used for reference in Coiling Dragon: both take dragons as the main element; Secondly, they both incorporate foreign cultures. Chairman MAO once said, if you do not occupy the position of cultural propaganda, the enemy will. Currently, serialized Korean online novels on the site have begun to equal the popularity of Chinese online novels.

5.2 Game
Dragon Fantasy is an online role-playing game developed by Dragon Entertainment and adapted from a dragon novel. The mobile game hit 10 million registered users in less than half a month after its launch. According to the financial report released by Zulong Entertainment, the global accumulative revenue of Dragon Fantasy exceeds 3 billion yuan, and the global accumulative registered players exceed 32 million. Dragon Fantasy, which entered the Japanese market in 2020, soon topped the free list on Google Play in Japan.
In this mobile game, players can take on one or more characters, grow and level up in the world view created by the game, and experience the adventures and love stories of the Dragon novels through a series of gameplay story quests and challenges. The linkage between the game platform and the novel reading platform is conducive to the expansion of the overseas audience of Dragon Clan, the development of more products, from a novel to an IP similar to Harry Potter, and the realization of a long-term overseas communication effect.

===Conclusion===
At present, the overseas dissemination of Chinese culture has a long way to go, one of which is the selection of translation materials as the carrier of cultural information. As a popular fantasy novel combining Chinese and Western cultural characteristics, Dragon Clan has a popular story structure popular to the public, which has great potential for overseas dissemination. Therefore, in the initial stage of overseas dissemination of Chinese culture, it is more appropriate to select translation materials.

Chinese Online Fantasy Novels：A comparison Between Dragon Raja and Harry Potter
Liu Lele
===Abstract===
Harry Potter and Dragon Raja, two famous fantasy novels, are similar in many ways including plots, character settings and so on. Since the former is famous across the world while the latter have not been translated from Chinese into English yet, we can learn a lot sentence patterns, phrases, and words from Harry Potter when translating Dragon Raja into English.
===Key words===
===Introduction===
There is no superior culture, but there are strong and weak ones. According to Toury's multiple systems theory, Chinese culture is relatively weak compared with British and American culture. Chinese literature has been marginalized in the world literature system for a long time, so when entering the field of English literature, it is usually dominated in the field of English literature. In the past few decades, the translation of contemporary Chinese literature to the English world has not been very successful. Readers in the English-speaking world object to translated literature from any culture, and it is very difficult for translated literature to enter the English world. Although there were two large-scale translation and introduction activities of Panda Series and Great China Library with a lot of material and human resources invested, but the result was not ideal. Although Dragon Raja, as an online literature, can not represent Chinese culture, its exciting plot and low barrier of readers would make it a good guide in achieving the "go global" strategy.
Both Harry Potter and Dragon Raja are a series of fantasy novels that have achieved great success, and both their main characters Harry Potter, Lu Mingfei and their storyline shares many similarities. One is popular across the world, and one is popular in China. So when translating Dragon Raja into English, we can learn many useful words, expressions and sentence patterns from Harry Potter.
===Similarities===
Harry Potter starts from the family of Mr. Dursley, the husband of the main character Harry Potter’s aunt, and Dragon Raja also starts from the family of Mr. Lu Gucheng, the uncle of the main character Lu Mingfei.

There is a special academy in both Harry Potter and Dragon, the Hogwarts College in Harry Potter and Kassel College in Dragon Raja, which are places where the main characters learn corresponding knowledge. Both colleges are extremely special. Hogwarts is about magic, kassel is about dragons, and both colleges are different from real universities. Neither college is known to the general public, and both have some mysteries.

In "Harry Potter" the headmaster of Hogwarts Dumbledore is a very powerful wizard, numerous honors, proficient in all kinds of high order magic, and is also the backbone of Hogwarts and even the whole magic community. In The Dragon Clan, The principal of Kassel Academy, Anger, is also a powerful dragon slayer. Kassel Academy, with Anger as its seat, has a great say in the mixed-race society. Both headmasters act as guides for the main characters in their respective works. Dumbledore loves Harry very much, while Angers loves Lummingfield even more than his pocketknife.

Both works depict a grand worldview that is different from the real world. Harry Potter describes an imaginary magical world in which all sorts of magical things are fascinating. Dragons also portrays the magical world of the dragon clan, attracting many fans with its whimsical ideas about various characters and historical events.

Neither Harry nor Lu Mingfei, who played the leading role in "Harry Potter" nor "Dragon Raja", was the best in the academy. In Harry Potter, Harry is not good either in actual combat ability or in school, while Lu Mingfei is a loser in Dragon Raja. But they both have extraordinary fates, Harry is the chosen one, and Lumingfei is also the key to ending the history of the dragon race.

In both books, there is a special race that has special abilities that ordinary people do not have. Magic in Harry Potter and speech and Spirit in Dragons are both powerful special abilities. Those who possess these special abilities are divided between wizards and hybrids. Wizards and hybrids are difficult groups for ordinary people to reach, and they don't want them to.

Before entering the academy, both Lumingfield and Harry stayed in their uncle's house, and neither of them was very popular. Both grew up in very similar environments, with few friends and often being bullied. Both men met their best friends after attending special schools. Harry meets Hermione and Ron on the train to Hogwarts, and Lummingfield meets Fingal at the station.
===Differences===
As mentioned above, Harry Potter has a lot in common with Dragons, but that doesn't prevent both books from being excellent fantasy novels. Although there are many similarities between the two works at first glance, there are fundamental differences between the two works
"Harry Potter" is mainly based on the British or European wizard culture as the creation, describes an imaginary magical world. The Dragon Race, on the other hand, mainly creates a dragon world based on Nordic mythology. While Harry Potter is full of wizarding legends and English history, Dragons is based on Norse mythology, but mostly borrows from names and allusions.

Most of the stories in harry Potter take place at Hogwarts, so the rest of the books are very brief. Dragons takes place everywhere, not just at Castle College.

In both books, there are special groups with superpowers, wizards and dragon hybrids. But their lifestyles are totally different. Wizards are more isolated and do not generally interact with Muggles; Hybrids, on the other hand, are hidden in the secular world and hold impressive secular power. And when dealing with enemies, wizards can only use magic, which means that only magic can defeat magic in the Harry Potter worldview. In Dragon Race, the hybrids are very willing to use the power of technology. Science is very important in Dragon Race, and the hybrids are always looking for the combination of dragon power and science.

The ultimate villains in Harry Potter are pure-blood believers led by Lord Voldemort, but they still belong to wizards. As far as dragons are concerned, the villains are dragons. Simply put, the villains in Harry Potter are wizards, while the villains in Dragons are other races. Those who are not of our kind have different hearts. So Dragons as a whole reads more murder and hatred than Harry Potter.

Harry Potter is a fairy tale with strong religious significance in essence. There are many fairy tale elements and religious metaphors in it, and more of them are religious thinking to persuade people to be good. "Dragon Raja" is a secular novel for young people from the beginning, most of which is about the discussion of common people themselves.

In Harry Potter, because it is the essence of fairy tale, the protagonist is naturally good, while the villain is naturally evil. The definition of good and evil is very simple and crude. In The Dragon Clan, it seems that the dragon clan is the villain, but the dragon clan described in the book is not necessarily evil. The confrontation between the hybrid and the dragon clan is more for survival status than good or evil.

In fact, there are many differences between the two works. For example, Lumingfield is more close to ordinary people and easier for us to relate to, while Harry is more like imaginary characters.
===Borrowing from Similarities===
Since the two novels share many similarities, when translating Dragon Raja, we can learn some useful words, expressions from Harry Potter.

3.1Sentence Patterns
(1)The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.
德思礼夫妇有一个小儿子，名叫达力。在他们看来，人世间没有比达力更好的孩子了。
婶婶觉得路鸣泽聪明，好读书，求上进，还特热爱文学，路鸣泽看《小说绘》在婶婶的嘴里也是“我们家鸣泽在学习”。
In Dragon Raja, it is the same case. So we can translate the above sentence into:
In Mrs. Lu’s opinion, her son Lu Mingze was smart and diligent with enthusiasm in literature. Even when Lu Mingze read Fiction and Draw, she thought he was doing some serious work.

(2)Might this not all be some huge joke that the Dursleys had cooked up? If Harry hadn’t known that the Dursleys had no sense of humor, he might have thought so...
这也许是杜斯礼一家搞的恶作剧？
也许“夕阳的刻痕”的真实身份给路鸣泽发觉了？路鸣泽想办法报复他玩呢？
When receiving the letter from their respective special college, Harry and Lu Mingfei both showed confusion and doubt. So we can translate the above sentence into:
Might this not all be some huge prank that Lu Mingze cooked up since he found out about the secret of “sunset”?

3.2 Phrases
(1)A deafening shout：震耳欲聋
Both in Harry Potter and in Dragon Raja, there’s people like shouting at the main characters, so we can use this phrase to make a vivid description of it.
(2)Questions exploded inside Harry’s head like fireworks.
These two words , “Explode” and “Fireworks”, together constitutes an lively description of the scene. Lu Mingfei was loaded with questions in his head when starting to know everything about dragons, which sounds unbelievable in the real world.

(3)The rattling cart火车咔嗒响。
Both Harry Potter and Dragon Raja have their special trains lead to the schools. So when depicting the sound a train makes in its way, we can use this phrase.

3.3 Words
Since both of the two are novels, when doing translating, we can meet a lot dialogues, which means the Chinese character--”说(said)” will need various substitutions. Besides, there are many descriptions of movements and expressions. Both these words can be very tricky when doing translating. Fortunately, Harry Potter offers various translations of them.

3.3.1 Words to describe the act of speaking(说）
(1) ...Harry asked urgently.
急忙问道，急切问道。

大脸猫头像跳闪，“诺诺”上线。
The profile of a big-face cat flickered, which means NONO got online.
路明非犹豫了一下，“是你？”
“Is that you?”hesitated a little, Lu Mingfei asked
“嗯，陈墨瞳。”诺诺的回答显得懒洋洋的，“没事上来打两盘。”
“Yeah,it’s me, Chen Motong.”She said carelessly,”Got no better things to do than some gaming.”
“你怎么知道我的ID？”
“How did you get my ID?”
“人肉搜索啊，嘿。你居然用‘明明’这种ID，像女孩似的，还有‘夕阳的刻痕’……你是人妖么？”
“Cyber manhunt. Hey, you took Mingming as your ID. Girlish! And “sunset”,are you sure you are not a ladyboy?
“这都能人肉到？千万保密，那是我来逗我弟玩的。”
“You even knew this?! Please keep this secret for me. That’s for playing some little tricks on my cousin.”
“开玩笑的啦，诺玛搜索到的，这对诺玛小菜一碟。你星际打得不错。”
“Just joking. It’s Noma, our intelligent computer, that got all this information. It’s a piece of cake for her. By the way, you are good at Starcraft.”
“行了，我都输给你了。”
“Come on, I lost to you.”
“是我输，诺玛和我一起打的，我们两个控制一家。最后我知道你在升三级基地，因为诺玛偷偷开了地图，看见了。”
“I should be the loser. I played the game with the help of Noma.
“作弊死全家！”路明非打出这句话。
“Cheaters will have his family completely died.” Lu Mingfei type this sentence.

“I’ve already got no family to lose.”answered Nono.

“Nothing to feel sorry about.”Nono said carelessly still,”Want a game?”
“没心情。”
“not in the mood.”
“失恋了？”
“Broke up with your girlfriend?”
路明非浑身一个激灵，诺诺像是个小巫婆似的，看穿了他的一切，叫他完全无处容身。
“Lu Mingfei was shocked. Nono’s like a little wizard, seeing through everything of him.He could hide nothing in front of her.
“还没有……我没有女朋友，当然不会失恋了，姐姐你想怎样啊？”他输入。
“How can I break up with my girlfriend when I don’t have a one? So what do you want? Big sister!”He typed.
“姐姐叫得还蛮甜的，”诺诺扔出一个龇牙咧嘴的笑脸，“来吧，说说到底怎么回事，我也许能帮上忙。”
“That’s sweet.”Nono sent him a grinning smile,”Alright, let’s hear it.Maybe I can help you.”
“你帮什么忙？你又不认识她。”
“I doubt that.You don’t know about her.”
“我是不认识陈雯雯。”小巫婆诺诺回复得极快。
“Yeah, I do know nothing about Chen Wenwen.”
“你到底知道多少？”路明非忽地很惊恐。
“How much do you know?”Lu Mingfei suddenly got frightened.
“太多了。”
“too much.”
“你们……到底是谁？”路明非手有点抖。
“Who are you?”Typed Lu Mingfei with trembling fingers.
(1) 路明非在屏幕上无奈地打出“GG”（“GG”，指“Good Game”，在竞技类游戏中称赞对方玩得好，也是认负的意思），而后切出了游戏。屏幕上显示的最后一个场景，是十二艘人类巡洋舰以华丽的大和炮聚焦射击，把他的母巢化作了一滩血水。
Lu mingfei reluctantly typed "GG" (" GG "refers to" Good Game "in a competitive Game) on the screen before cutting out the Game. The final scene shown on the screen was twelve human cruisers firing in focus with their magnificent Yamato guns, turning his brood into a pool of blood.
(2) 他输掉了今天的第六局，胜负比例是零比六，这一次他坚持到了22分23秒才被拿下，不过最终还是被拿下了，对方的微操很好，用的又是人类，人类的机枪兵在这个游戏里是个变态的兵种，出枪速度为零，站住了拔枪就射，收枪就跑，路明非的小狗追不上，在路上就一只只被打爆了。
He lost his game for today 6-0，with round 6 hanging/lasting for 22 minutes 23 seconds. His opponent is very good at micro control, with the use of Terran whose riflemen，capable of shooting in an instant，is extremely strong in the game. stood still pull out a gun shoot, gun ran, Lu MingFei's puppy can catch up, thus getting beaten up one by one.
路明非没啃声儿，切到QQ上，那个戴棒球帽的女孩头像还是灰色的，一动不动。对方没上线，又白等了。他抓了抓脑袋，有点失望。另一个头像倒是跳了起来，是个长得很欠的熊猫。
Lu Mingfei did not answer. Switch into QQ, the profile of a girl wearing a baseball cap stayedgray and quiet there. She wasn't online, and he was just waiting for nothing. Scratching his head, he felt a little upset. The other profile was active though，a very disturbing panda.
===Conclusion===
Both Dragon Raja and Harry Potter are great fantasy novels. Dragon Raja has only been enjoyed in China, which to some extent is because it has no other versions than Chinese ones. Harry Potter has both attracting languages and similar plots with Dragon Raja, so there are things can be learned from it.

<center>'''On Gender Discrimination in Chinese'''</center>
===Abstract===
Language is an integral component of culture. Without language, it is impossible to have a culture, because only via language is culture transmitted from one generation to the next. For the necessities of life, language exists in a certain environment; therefore, the specific environment will be reflected in the language of a specific brand. Language is the means by which people communicate their thoughts. Therefore, it is inevitable that it will have an effect on politics, the economy and society, science and technology, and even culture. For a long time in China, Europe, and the United States, sexism in language has been a very serious problem. This study will describe the phenomenon of sexism in Chinese from three perspectives: word formation, proverbs, and metaphors, and then examine its causes.

===Key words===
'''Language; Cultural Factors; Gender Discrimination; Chinese'''
===Introduction===
Gender Discrimination, often known as sexual discrimination, is the unfair consideration of a person's sex when determining who receives a job, promotion, or other employment advantages. The Cambridge Dictionary defines "gender discrimination" as "a situation in which someone is treated less well because of their sex, usually when a woman is treated less well than a man." Although men can be subjected to gender discrimination, the term primarily refers to discrimination against women. The language reflects a bias towards women and the unequal social standing of men and women. This problem is displayed primarily through the scorn, disregard, denigration, or insulting of women. This paper will describe sexism and explain the causes in Chinese from the perspectives of word formation, proverbs, and metaphors.

===Literature Review===
The study of gender-specific language in China began belatedly. Although it has been said for a long time that many of the Chinese characters next to the term "女(female)" discriminate against women, it is only a few words and phrases of personal opinion. This is the case even though it has been stated for a long time. It was not until the 1970s, influenced by western gender language studies, that Chinese linguists began to translate and introduce the western research on language gender differences and language sexism, and they wrote many papers on English language sexism, which had a certain influence and inspiration on Chinese linguistics, and then they began to study the phenomenon of language sexism.
Sun Yuan and Xu Ke (2010) contrasted sexism in English and Chinese from three perspectives: morphology, semantics, and syntax, and studied the phenomenon's ceremonial genesis and real-world pressure.
Chen Wei (2013) studied the context and content of English feminist linguistics research, assessed the features of female language at the level of language and discourse style, and presented the standard of non-gender language use and various linguistic perspectives.
Wang Xiuying (2016) used English and Chinese as examples to examine and analysed the historical and cultural roots of common sexism in the two languages from the perspectives of word creation and syntax.
Sun Lanfang (2018) analysed the gender discrimination reflected in Chinese characters from the side, investigated the social causes and cultural roots of such discrimination, and explored the significance of the relationship between gender disparity and writing to social advancement.
===Word Formation===
Word formation is a fundamental aspect of language. There is gender discrimination at the beginning of English and Chinese words.
Chinese characters express the actual meaning of a word through their shape, and some Chinese characters at the beginning of their composition embody the cultural phenomenon of male superiority and female inferiority. Written by Xu Shen during the Eastern Han Dynasty, Shuowen Jiezi (Interpretation of Chinese characters) is the earliest dictionary in the history of linguistics in China, integrating the analysis of glyph, explanation of meaning, and discrimination of pronunciation. Female characters constitute one of the largest categories in this book, with 238 characters and 13 Variant Chinese characters. These female characters clearly reflect the ancient women's life picture and their social status. These female characters clearly reflect the lifestyle and social standing of ancient women. In a patriarchal society, women are men's accessories and have no personality of their own; they are parasites at the bottom of society. "女，婦人也。象形。王育說。凡女之屬皆从女." which signifies female, woman and the shape of a woman. This is the view of Wang Yu. All the words related to women are using the "女(female)" as the side. The Female’s oracle bone script is [[File:Chinesecharacterjpg]] , which resembles a woman on her knees with her arms crossed in front of her chest. Thus, the original meaning of the word "女(female)" is a woman with low status who focuses on domestic trifles. In addition, the ancient pronunciation of the word "女(female)" is "奴(slave)." Thus, both the word formation and pronunciation of “女(female)” reflect the ancient people's contempt for women.
There are five type of Chinese characters with a “女”.
A.Viewing women as instruments for reproduction or toys for men: “姓” “妊” “娠” “妃” 嫖” “妾”.
B.Reflecting the status of married women as occupants and slaves: “娶” “嫁” “婚”.
C.Indicating female sexuality as evil, greedy and immoral: “嫌” “妖” “妒” “耍” “妨” “奸” “婊” “妄”.
D.meaning obedience, ignorance and lowliness:“妇” “奴” “如” “安” “娓” “姻”.
E.In a society dominated by men, the value of women appears to be determined solely by their: “好” “姝” “妙” “娜” “妍” “娟” “婧” “娴”. (This will be further explained in the “Metaphor” session.)

Let’s focus on “B.Reflecting the status of married women as occupants and slaves”.
In fact, not only these forms of marriage but also the terms "嫁" and "娶" contain severe sexual discrimination. Take “嫁” as an example, the left part indicates “女” and the right part “家” denotes the pronunciation. 《白虎通·婚娶》:“嫁者，家也。妇人外成以出适人为家。” This sentence means that once a woman married, her husband’s home is her home while her parents’ house is no longer her home. Generally, married women wish to leave their hometown and join her husband's family, thereby becoming a member of her husband's family. Mencius once said, 丈夫生而愿为之有势室，女子生而原为之有家。男以女为室，女以男为家 (When a boy is born, his parents hope to find him a wife. When a girl is born, her parents hope to find her a husband's family.) This reflects the ancient women's dependence on her family and the ancient society's perception of women. Women have no personality of their own and depend solely on their husbands for survival. Whether in the family of the husband or the family of her own, the woman has no rights; therefore, she must perform "three obedience and four virtues." In antiquity, when the pre-Qin word "嫁" was pronounced with a rhyming sound of “卖”, which means "sell." "Han Fei Zi": "天饥岁寒，嫁妻卖子者，必是家也(when the weather is cold and suffering hunger, marry your wife to another and sell your child can earn you a house).” "嫁(marry)" and "卖(sell)" are juxtapositional structures, so "marry" can be naturally interpreted as "sell". Let’s take a look at “娶”. the word formation of this word combines association and pictography. “取” means "take and capture prisoners." In ancient times, when a prisoner is captured, his left ear is cut off as a sign of victory; therefore, the ancient Chinese characters for "取" have the word "耳" on the left and "又" on the right. Consequently, "娶" can also mean "rob wife."
For men, women are as much their property as anything else, and it is this desire that is exploited by modern web games to attract male players' attention with slogans about “grabbing grain and women, and occupying cities”.

<center>Li Siyuan</center>

===Introduction===
Lanterns originated in the Western Han Dynasty more than 1800 years ago. They are traditional Chinese folk handicrafts and play an important role in the long history of the Chinese nation. They symbolize the splendor of Chinese civilization and the prosperity of the country. Lanterns in ancient China's main role is lighting. Chinese lanterns are the world's first invention of portable lighting tools.Later, there appeared many lanterns of various shapes and functions. In addition to the well-known red lanterns hung on such festive days and wedding celebrations, they are divided into figures, mountains and rivers, flowers and birds, dragons and phoenixes, fish and insect lanterns. From the shape of points, there are simple lamp and circular lamp.

===The origin of Chinese Lantern civilization and typical kinds===
Lantern is the product of our agricultural age, originated from the Western Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, officials and people attached great importance to the Lantern Festival. In the folk, people decorate lanterns and travel to enjoy them. In the Song Dynasty, shadow lanterns, water lanterns and other lanterns emerged. In the early Ming Dynasty, people set up a lantern market for the Lantern Festival, which later developed into a department store trading market. In the Qing Dynasty, both residences and temples had unique lighting scenes, and palace lighting also had a profound influence on the later folk lantern production.There are many kinds of claims on the origin of the lantern, one widely circulated statement is: the custom of the Lantern Festival began in the eastern Han dynasty,when the emperor liu Zhuang promoted Buddhism, he heard that there was the fifteenth day of the Buddhist monks worshiped Buddha Relics, light. Then he ordered this one night in the palace and the temple worship Buddha light, made the cremation of the subaltern hanging lamp. Later, this kind of Buddhist ritual festival gradually formed a grand folk festival. The section has experienced from the palace to the folk, from the central Plains to the national development process. During the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty, in order to celebrate the prosperity of the country and the security of the people, people tied lanterns, with flickering lights, symbolizing "colorful dragon, auspicious, rich country strong", lantern custom has been widely popular since then.Lanterns show people's wishes for a better life and are the symbol of auspiciousness and harmony.
As an important traditional handicraft, lanterns play a high decorative role. The traditional patterns on the lanterns contain beautiful meanings, while traditional paintings express different themes through depictions of everyday situations or traditional stories.
If painting is more of the image of the Lantern, calligraphy is the carrier of the spirit of the lantern. People's wishes for the New Year are written directly on the lanterns. The carrier that comes thousands of years, people's thought and life, the glamour of the character seeks again the space that gets relieved, full-bodied culture accumulates at the moment get delectation release. People that occupy the home are reading these good wishes daily, happiness and the ground that pursues somewhat is alive. Like lantern painting, there are two kinds of calligraphy: direct writing and indirect pasting. But different from painting, because of the ball-shaped or special-shaped lanterns made after writing is very difficult, generally applicable to the existing calligraphy is more, and square and cylindrical lanterns writing is much easier, on the above can be arbitrarily write down their own beautiful vision for the New Year. There's no need to care if you're a brilliant calligrapher, all you need to do is relax and "clone" the most natural fonts onto your lantern. The lantern content is more traditional "blessing", "auspicious", "peace and prosperity", "good harvest" and so on, and because it is the year of the Sheep, so "three Sheep kaitai" (three sheep bring happiness) and other good wishes are also reflected on the paper. Of course, the lanterns of the gate can also write their own heart couplets, the lanterns of the bedroom do not forget to write their own mottoes, or affectionately write their beloved nickname and so on, or to a name of their own and their beloved "hidden" poems also do not have a feeling. In fact, there is another aspect to the calligraphy on the lanterns. Generally speaking, official script and script lanterns are more suitable for hanging in the hall, running script and cursive script are suitable for use on the bedroom lanterns, and one cheering calligraphy is the most appropriate for use in the children's room.
Paper-cutting is one of the most popular folk arts in China, especially in northeast China, where every household sticks paper-cutting during the Spring Festival. Today, paper-cuts are more used for decoration, so Cantonese people may as well borrow them. Paper cutting can be used to decorate walls, doors and Windows, pillars, mirrors, etc., and can also be used to decorate lanterns. There are two ways to cut lanterns: scissors and knife. Scissors cut is with the help of scissors, cut a few pieces (generally not more than 8 pieces) paper cut paste up, and finally use sharp scissors to process the pattern. Knife cutting involves folding paper into stacks, placing it on a soft mixture of ash and animal fat, and then slowly carving it with a knife. Paper-cutting artists usually hold the knife vertically and process the paper into the desired pattern according to a certain model. Compared with scissors, one advantage of knife cutting is that it can be processed into multiple paper-cut patterns at one time. Lantern Festival paper-cut lanterns are common in three categories: one is based on patterns.

===Some common cultural implications of Chinese lantern===

Lanterns symbolize family reunion, prosperity and prosperity, as well as happiness, brightness, vitality, completeness and wealth. They can create an atmosphere of happiness and joy. Every New Year to prepare a red lantern hanging in the door or house. Red lanterns are lit on New Year's Eve and hung in doors or houses to illuminate the night and the peace and happiness of the whole family.In the year of the Sheep, lanterns also presented goats, sheep and other types, different colors of the sheep, these are indicative of the beginning of the New Year luck, financial resources into the vast majority of good intentions, in the festive period looking at the New Year new atmosphere, heart joy from this. In addition, different ages and different rooms in the selection of lantern paintings also differ. Sitting room and porch are hanged aptly compare traditional design "in the norm" lantern, old person room chooses aptly the lantern that its interest and life background are relevant, children room is about to show the lantern of the most lively picture with the simplest means of course. In fact, the lantern picture of children's room can let children start their own hands completely, draw a lovely small animal, favorite "cartoon messenger", or have quite beautiful to be painted into "abstract painting school", can make the room grace many.

===The symbolic significance of lanterns in film and television works===
The so-called lantern culture means that as a kind of cultural and artistic works, lanterns have rich cultural concepts. Besides being related to Chinese people's life, they also often appear in literature, film and television, opera, painting and other works, conveying some symbolic significance. Different lanterns have different functions and express different meanings. For example, horse-walking lanterns are used for people's enjoyment, Kong Ming lanterns and palace lanterns are used for praying, and bamboo lanterns are used to announce that this is a funeral occasion. In addition, there are all kinds of lanterns symbolizing good love. Today, most of what we know about the function and symbolic meaning of lanterns comes from movies and movies, where symbols are created to attract the interest of the audience. In many film and television works, we can often see the appearance of "lantern" as a folk element symbol with unique symbolic significance and special historical status, carrying a certain cultural significance. Starting from the symbolic meaning of symbols, this paper analyzes the expression form and symbolic meaning of lanterns in film and television works, and reflects on the "cultural consciousness" of lanterns as folk elements in film and television works in cross-cultural communication.
Film and television, as the carrier of integrated art and popular culture, has abundant elements and profound social influence. Lanterns in the film and television not only play a rich audio-visual, deepening the theme and other functions, but also have far-reaching significance of cultural communication, in the film and television creation and communication plays an important role. The earliest symbolic significance of lanterns is related to "god". In ancient times, in order to drive away darkness and fear, people regarded lanterns as objects to exorcise evil spirits and pray for light. For example, lotus lanterns are used to express their gratitude to Buddha and pray for his protection. In film and television works, these symbolic meanings of lanterns have been intentionally or unintentionally expressed. And lanterns is in the film and television play a lot of, in addition to its own unique symbol significance, also associated with the artistic technique of expression of director who used to use, with symbolic elements to promote the development of film and television play narrative plot, so as to enrich the connotation of film and television creation, leaving the audience more thinking and imagination.
In ancient times, men and women often use lanterns to express their wishes and wishes for a better love. Water lamps, Kong Ming lanterns, and small lanterns painted with figures, landscapes, flowers and birds, dragons and phoenixes, fish and insects, these lanterns convey the love of men and women. In Thailand every year in November held "Lantern Festival", is a full reflection of the Thai young men and women love festival. In the Thai drama Journey of Life, the heroine, makes a lamp boat by folding banana leaves, filling it with flowers, lighting incense and floating it in water to pray for eternal companionship with her beloved. In ancient China, there was a tradition for women to release water lanterns and Kong Ming lanterns to pray for love. In the ''Legend of Zhen Huan'', the concubines in the palace set a water lamp in a river to pray for an early sunrise and find a suitable husband. The water lamp serves as a bridge for the concubines imprisoned in the palace to communicate with the outside world "Cage" expresses their desire for free love when they are trapped in a deep palace.
In China, the Lantern Festival is celebrated on the 15th day of the first lunar month. The Lantern Festival is called the Lantern Festival and the Lantern Festival is a traditional folk festival. The 15th Lantern Festival, also known as Chinese Valentine's Day, is a romantic and poetic festival. Directors also have a special liking to the Lantern Festival in the fifteenth Month circle, the Lantern Festival scene often appears in some films and television works, many films and television works even reduced the grand occasion of the Lantern Festival at that time. The directors like to arrange the first meeting of the hero and heroine on the Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival is a festival that can instantly promote love, and the lantern is the matchmaker for the hero and heroine to promise love and love. Director Li Shao Hong's "Words of Daming Palace", the young Princess Taiping out of the palace for the first time, into the Lantern Festival crowd, in the street lit by lanterns, she met her first man - Xue Shao, and love it. "Zhaojun Out of the Frontier" in the director fictional Wang Zhaojun and Huhanxie Shanyu meet the scene, the Lantern Festival, Wang Zhaojun because of witnessing Huhanxie Shanyu shooting small lanterns heroic spirit, they fell in love at first sight, the achievement of a paragraph of Zhaojun out of the jam story. The aesthetic scenes constructed by the director with the help of "lantern" props undoubtedly render romantic images for the love of the male and female protagonists, and the pictures are full of poetic painting, which improves the aesthetic feeling of film and television works and endows them with stronger artistic colors. In some films and television works, there are also scenes of guessing lantern riddles, exchanging lanterns and matching lanterns. Lanterns have become a symbol of love between men and women. When getting married, people like to hang red lanterns on the eaves, symbolizing joy and excitement and conveying good wishes. This custom continues to this day.

<center>'''Language Culture in Chinese Cuisine Names'''</center>

<center>Li Ting</center>

===Introduction===
Dish vocabulary is the direct or indirect reflection of national diet culture in language vocabulary. Cuisine names are the most representative expression of dish vocabulary. The name of a dish is the first step for people to know it. Only by knowing the basic information of the dish through the name can customers become interested in the dish and imagine what it could be. Therefore, since ancient times, Chinese people have made great efforts in the names of dishes, creating many naming ways. On one hand, the names of Chinese cuisine have witnessed the long history of China and inherited the ancient culture of the Chinese nation, which also reveals the flesh-and-blood relationship between Chinese cuisine names and Chinese language and culture. This paper will discuss the names of Chinese dishes from language, culture and psychology, elaborate on the naming methods of Chinese dishes, and also analyze the Chinese culture behind the names of Chinese dishes.

===Looking at Chinese Cuisine Names through Linguistics===
'''1. Meanings of Cuisine Names'''

In terms of the meanings of cuisine names, they can be briefly divided into the following three types:

The first is the referential meaning, which is the relationship between linguistic symbols and the entities and events of the subjective or objective world described or narrated by them. It is the objective world reflected by words, sentences and texts (Nida 1998). The cuisine names are no exceptions, and they have a certain connection with the dishes themselves. This meaning is most evident when guests go to a restaurant to order. When a guest orders a dish of “Kung Pao Chicken, Quick-fried Chicken Dices with Peanuts”(宫保鸡丁), the waiter will never bring out “the Braised Turtle in Brown Sauce”(红烧甲鱼). A dish name, like a sign, represents a dish. Although the names of the same dish may be different in different languages, they all reflect the same thing. (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

The second is the naming meaning, which means that we can get some basic information about the dish through the name of the dish, and understand the reason and source of the name of the dish. Unlike western dishes that focus on realistic naming, Chinese dishes have various naming ways. It has both realistic naming that reflects the ingredients and cooking methods of dishes, and freehand naming that reflects the color, flavor and shape of dishes, or naming after the founder, the place of origin, and allusions, etc. For example, a dish called “Cold Noodles with Chicken Shreds” (鸡丝凉面) conveys to us information about the raw materials, ingredients and cooking methods of the dish through its name, thus we also know the reason for its naming. Similarly, the famous Sichuan dish “Mapo Tofu” (it is named after its inventor: a pock-marked woman in Sichuan province ground pork with bean curd in chili sauce) (麻婆豆腐) is known by its name as the founder of Mapo. (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

The third is the additional meaning, which mainly refers to the aesthetic meaning of the dish name. Chinese dish names are not only the embodiment of the connotation of dishes, but also the concentrated reflection of the aesthetic taste of the creators of delicious dishes. Chinese cuisine names are elegant, meaningful and full of poetic meaning. In a few numbers they can reflect the beauty of poetry. Such as “Shrimp with green Vegetable”(翡翠虾仁), “Four-Joy Meatballs, Braised Pork Balls in Gravy Sauce”(四喜丸子), “Fotiaoqiang—the Buddha jumped the wall for luring by its smell” (assorted meat and vegetables cooked in embers (佛跳墙), these dishes really give people a kind of beautiful enjoyment. (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

[[File:Mapo Tofu1.jpg]] [[File:Fotiaoqiang (1).jpg]]

'''2. The Naming Methods of Dish Names'''

The naming of Chinese dishes is not arbitrary, but has formed a relatively regular word system. According to the basis of naming, it can be roughly divided into the following categories:

'''2.1 Named after Ingredients and Cooking Methods'''

This is a way of naming dishes according to the ingredients and cooking methods, belonging to the realistic naming way. This is similar to the naming of western dishes, simple and direct (c.f: Liu Yun 2018, 118). The main ingredients are nothing more than meat, fish and shrimp, poultry, eggs, grains, vegetables or fruits; ways of cutting include cut, chop, split, scrape, etc.; Chicken, duck, fish and vegetables and fruits can be processed into different shapes, including block, strip, segment, slice, dice, shred, powder, paste; cooking methods are also rich, such as frying, deep-frying, cooking, stir-frying, braising, roasting, stewing, simmering, steaming, boiling, sauce, mix, smoking, pickling, and so on.

Dishes named after these four aspects can be divided into the following categories: (a). named after the main ingredients of the dish, without involving cutting techniques and cooking methods, but sometimes include the taste of the dish, such as “Corn Meatballs” (玉米肉丸), “Sweet and Sour Fish”(糖醋鱼), and so on; (b). named after the main ingredients and side ingredients of the dish, such as “Fried Shrimps with Tomato Sauce” (茄汁虾仁), “Diced Chicken with Cashew Nuts” (腰果鸡丁); (c). named after ingredients, side ingredients and cutting techniques, such as “Diced Chicken with Green Pepper” (辣子鸡丁), “Pork Shreds with Fish Seasoning” (鱼香肉丝), and so on; (d). named after the main ingredients and cooking methods, such as “Steamed Perch” (清蒸鲈鱼), “Braising Carp with Soy Sauce” (红烧鲤鱼), etc.; (e). named after the main ingredients, side ingredients, cutting techniques and cooking methods of the dish, such as “Quick-frying Shredded Mutton with Scallion” (葱爆羊肉丝), “Braised Chicken Fillet with Tender Ginger” (仔姜烧鸡条) and so on. Using these methods allow people to quickly get the basics of the dish and know what they are likely to what it is next. For example, “Pork Cooked with Green Chili” (辣椒炒肉) is known by its name as its raw materials are green chili and pork, and its cooking method is stir-fried. “Scrambled Egg with Tomato” (番茄炒蛋), “Hairy Crabs” (大闸蟹) and other dishes also belong to realistic names. (c.f: Zhou Guiying 2008, 112-113 )

'''2.2 Freehand Naming'''

Unlike realistic dishes, dishes named after freehand do not particularly emphasize the cooking methods and raw materials, but regard dishes as a kind of emotion or ideal, which is the essence of the wisdom of the Chinese people. It is often used to convey the gorgeous Chinese culture and people’s yearning for a better life. The dishes named freehand pay attention to the “beauty of sound, shape and meaning”, which is decided by consideration and research. They are beautiful and lifelike; they express feelings and convey wishes; they reflect both language and culture. It can also be subdivided into the following categories: the first is to highlight the color of the dishes, such as “Golden Coin-shaped Scallops” (金钱干贝), “Shrimp with green Vegetable” and so on; the second is to emphasize the taste of dishes, such as “Sour and Hot Diced Chicken” (酸辣鸡丁), “Sweet and Sour Ribs”(糖醋排骨), “Cola Chicken Wings” (可乐鸡翅) and so on, which people can know the taste of the dish whether it is salty, sweet or spicy directly from the name of the dish; the third is to emphasize the plastic arts of dishes, such as “Braised Meat Balls in Brown Sauce” (红烧狮子头), “Tai Chi Shaped Taro” (太极芋头); the fourth is to express good wishes, such as “Stewed Assorted Delicacies” (全家福), “Wishful Bamboo Shoots” (如意笋). All these cuisine names are China’s precious cultural heritage, playing a important role in Chinese history. (Liu Yun 2018, 118)

[[File:Braised Meat Balls in Brown Sauce.jpg]] [[File:Tai Chi Shaped Taro.jpg]]

'''2.3 Named after a Person or a Place'''

There are many Chinese dishes named after their inventors. “Wen Si Tofu” (文思豆腐) is a good example. It began in the Qing Dynasty and has a history of more than 300 years. Legend has it that during the Reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, there was a monk named Wen Si at Tianning Temple near Meiling, Yangzhou, who was good at making tofu dishes. He was particularly good at making tofu soup with tender tofu, day lily, agaric and other raw materials. It was so delicious that lay Buddhists who went to burn incense and worship Buddha all like to taste this soup. As the dish was created by the monk Wen Si, people called it “Wen Si Tofu”. “Dongpo Meat” (东坡肉) and “Mapo Tofu” are also named after their founders. (Lu Jing, Tang Yueting 2016, 152-154)

In addition, Chinese cuisine also includes dishes named after place names, which mainly reflect local specialties, cooking skills and flavors. Food is also a part of the beauty. In addition to appreciating the local natural and cultural scenery, for those people who travel to a place, tasting food is also a must. Then dishes named after place names naturally become images representing local characteristics. The most famous dish named after a place is “Peking Duck” (北京烤鸭), which has almost become a culinary name card of Beijing and even China. In addition, dishes named after place names such as “West Lake Fish in Vinegar Sauce” (西湖醋鱼) and “Zhijiang Fried Duck with Varied Ingredients” (芷江鸭) both have become city name cards. (c.f: Liu Yun 2018, 118)

[[File:Wen Si Tofu.jpg]] [[File:Peking Duck.jpg]]

'''2.4 Named after Historical Allusions'''

Some Chinese dishes have historical allusions to their names. For example, “Meat in Tomato Sauce” (乾隆樱桃肉) is a famous dish that emperor Qianlong tasted when he visited the South of the Yangtze River. “Murrel with Fresh Vegetables”(将军过桥) is a dish borrowed from Zhang Fei's attack on Cao Bing on Changban Slope (长坂坡) during The Three Kingdoms Period. It has been handed down to this day. In addition, “Four-Joy Meatballs, Braised Pork Balls in Gravy Sauce” refers to four balls that are fried, steamed and boiled. Trace back to its root, the word “Four-Joy” comes from an allusion: Zhang Jiuling came to Beijing to take the imperial examination. In many students who came to Beijing to take the examination, only the shabby Zhang Jiuling won the top list. Because the emperor appreciated Zhang Jiuling's calligraphy and wisdom, he was immediately arranged as the bridegroom to marry with the princess. At that time, however, his hometown was hit by a flood and there was no news of his parents. On the day of marriage, Zhang Jiuling finally inquired about the whereabouts of his parents, so he fetched his parents to Beijing. Therefore, Zhang Jiuling ordered the chef to prepare an auspicious dish to celebrate these happy events. When the dishes arrived, they were four large balls that had been fried, steamed and drenched in soup. Chef explained that it was “Four-Joy Meatballs” : succeed in the imperial examination was the first happiness; getting married was the second; being the emperor’s son-in-law was the third one; family reunion is the last joy. From then on, the “Four-Joy Meatballs” has become a necessary dish at great celebrations. (Zhang Yanyan 2015, 55-57)

[[File:Meat in Tomato Sauce.jpg]] [[File:Murrel with Fresh Vegetables.jpg]]

'''2.5 Named after Numeral Abbreviations'''

Numeral abbreviations are commonly used in Chinese dish names, which are concise, generalizing and easy to understand and remember. For example, “Two Winter” (二冬) refers to dried mushroom (冬菇) and winter bamboo shoot (冬笋), because they both have the Chinese character for “dong, winter”. “Three Delicacies” (三鲜) refers to a combination of any three things like fresh pork, fish, ham, fresh chicken, eggs, shrimp, mushrooms and winter bamboo shoots. In addition, “Three Shreds” (三丝) refers to a combination of any three things like shredded pork, shredded ham, shredded chicken, shredded eel, shredded potato, shredded leek, shredded green pepper, shredded bamboo shoots and shredded mushroom. The same is true of the “Four-Joy Meatballs”, which is a condensed version of the four happiness of life. (c.f: Zhou Guiying 2008, 112-113 )

'''2.6 Named after Animals and Plants Names'''

People often use some good animal names for cuisine names, such as the Cantonese famous dish “Dragon and Tiger Locked in battle, Thick Soup of Snake, Cat and Chicken” (龙虎斗), it is composed of snake meat and leopard cat. The dragon is a mythical animal imagined from the shape of a snake, and the leopard cat is similar to the tiger, both belong to the cat family. When the heavenly dragon, which symbolizes kingship, fights the tiger, which claims to be the king of all beasts, the scene is naturally thrilling and definitely arouses people’s imagination. “Braised Lion's Head” (红烧狮子头) actually means “Braised Meat Balls in Brown Sauce”. (Zhou Guiying 2008, 112-113 )

[[File:Dragon and Tiger Locked in battle, Thick Soup of Snake, Cat and Chicken.jpg]]

Some plants, such as the lotus, have special cultural meanings. In ancient poems, “hibiscus” stands for lotus, which sounds more sweet and poetic. When naming dishes, “hibiscus” stands for egg white, which is associated with lotus and gives people a feeling of white and elegant, such as “Shrimp with Hibiscus , Shrimp with egg white” (芙蓉虾仁) and “Hibiscus Sea Cucumber, Sea Cucumber with egg white” (芙蓉海参), and so on. “Magnolia" is a common ornamental plant, and the white and pure magnolia reminds people of the same white and pure bamboo shoots, such as “Fried Magnolia Slices” (炒玉兰片) is actually “Fried Bamboo Shoots Slices” (炒笋片). (c.f: Zhou Guiying 2008, 112-113 )

'''2.7 Named after Precious Metals and Jade'''

Precious metals such as gold and silver and articles such as jewelry and jade are expensive, bright-colored and have decorative effect and ornamental value. Using them as a nomenclature for Chinese food will give a sense of beauty and enhance the taste of the dish. Such as “golden shreds” refers to carrot shreds; “jade” refers to green vegetables, green beans or green peppers; “white jade” refers to shrimp or tofu; “pearl” refers to quail eggs or corn kernels. Such kind of names seem noble and elegant, value multiplied. Similar dishes include “Salted Pork in Jelly” (水晶肴肉), “Braised Pig Tendon with Jade, Braised Pig Tendon with Vegetables” (翡翠蹄筋) and “Jade and White Jade, Shrimp with Green Vegetable” (翡翠白玉) etc. These dishes can not only reflect the color of the dishes, but also evoke certain associations and add a bit of charm. (c.f: Zhou Guiying 2008, 112-113 )

[[File:Salted Pork in Jelly.jpg]] [[File:Shrimp with green Vegetable.jpg]]

'''2.8 Named after Auspicious Words'''

In traditional Chinese culture, dishes named after auspicious things are generally used to express blessing. These dishes are often served at banquets celebrating major festivals, wedding banquets and birthday parties. For example, “Stewed Assorted Delicacies” is a famous dish in Shandong province. Its ingredients are relatively diverse, including abalone, sea cucumber, chicken, duck meat, fish maw, mushroom and cabbage heart. It is often used to celebrate the birthday of the elderly, wedding banquet, family reunion, and even a baby’s completion of its first month of life banquet, which is named to express auspicious meaning. (c.f: Zhang Yanyan 2015, 55-57)

'''3 Rhetorical Devices in Cuisine Names'''

When people name dishes, they often use rhetorical devices to add moving colors to dishes. The rhetorical devices commonly used in the name of Chinese cuisine include figure of speech, hyperbole, allusion and personification.

'''3.1 Figure of Speech'''

The figure of speech in Chinese dishes are numerous and multifaceted. Some from the “shape” to use the simile: “Mirror Box Tofu” (镜箱豆腐) (named because it looks like a dressing box), “Tai Chi Shaped Taro” (in the shape of Tai Chi), “Squirrel-shaped Mandarin Fish” (松鼠鳜鱼). Some of the “color” metaphor: “Shrimp Ring with Green Vegetable” (翡翠虾环) (made with green cucumber slices and shrimp), “Golden Eggs” (金钱蛋). Some of the “meaning” metaphor: “Taking the Son to the Imperial Court—Duck and Pigeon ” (带子上朝) (duck and pigeon each one), “Farewell My Concubine” (霸王别姬) (turtle and hen were respectively compared to Xiang Yu, the Overlord in the West Chu Period, and his concubine Yu Ji, then the two are back-to-back, which refers to farewell), etc. If a certain metaphor is used many times in dish names, the relationship between its tenor and vehicle will be fixed. For example, “hibiscus” is usually used as a metaphor for “egg white”, so hibiscus has become a pronoun of egg white in dish names. The hibiscus in these cuisine names “Chicken Slices with Hibiscus” (芙蓉鸡片), “Scallops with Hibiscus” (芙蓉干贝) , “Shrimp Hibiscus” , “Clams with Hibiscus” (芙蓉青蛤)" all refer to egg white. In addition, “white jade” is generally used to refer to tofu, “dragon beard” refers to bean sprouts and “phoenix claw” refers to chicken feet. (Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

These metaphorical dishes give play to people’s great imagination, making cuisine more attractive by comparing to animals and plants in nature, utensils and figures in life.

'''3.2 Hyperbole'''

Hyperbole is the exaggerating or understatement of things, but its basis is true, that is to say, the purpose of hyperbole is not to deceive but to emphasize the degree of something. Hyperbole is often used in Chinese dish names. For example, “The Thousand-layer Oil Cake, Multiple Layer Oil Cake” (千层油糕), a classic dessert in Huaiyang cuisine, uses the word “Thousand-layer” to describe the thickness of the cake, although slightly exaggerated, but vividly depicts the image of the cake.

'''3.3 Allusion'''

The names of some Chinese dishes are closely related to historical allusions. For instance, “the Beggar Chicken, Roast Whole Chicken Wrapped in Mud” (叫花鸡) is a special roasted chicken wrapped in mud and lotus leaves. This dish has a long history. According to legend, during Qianlong emperor's private visit in disguise, when he was wandering in the wilderness around the South of the Yangtze River, he felt hungry and sleepy. A beggar kindly gave him a roasted chicken to eat. Feeling tired and hungry, emperor Qianlong thought it was a delicacy and asked the beggar its name. The beggar did not know what the name was, so he casually said it was “rich chicken”. After emperor Qianlong returned to the court, he praised “rich chicken”. And “Jiao Hua” in Chinese means “the beggar”, so this dish also called “Jiao Hua Chicken”. This dish spread from then on because of the emperor's praise, and became a famous dish that can ascend the hall of elegance. The “Four-Joy Meatballs” mentioned above is also an allusion. (c.f: Zhang Yanyan 2015, 55-57)

'''3.4 Personification'''

Personification in Chinese dish names refers to comparing the raw materials of dishes to people, so that they have human appearance, personality or emotion. The names of the dishes, which use this device, is very imaginative. For example, in “Soft-shelled Turtle with Pigeon Eggs” (老蚌怀珠), it compares soft-shelled turtle to a pregnant woman, which is more dynamic, and vividly shows the image of this dish. At the same time, “Double Dragon Playing with a Pearl (Two fish and a coconut)” (二龙戏珠) gives fish humanized movements.

===The Cultural Connotation of Chinese Cuisine Names===
Chinese cuisine names contain rich cultural connotations, from cultural cities to historical allusions, from raw materials to good wishes, reflecting the long river of Chinese culture that has been flowing for thousands of years.

'''1. The Good Meanings and Visions in Cuisine Names'''

Chinese people generally have a tendency to good luck. They like to listen to auspicious words, no matter what they do, they hope to have a good omen, which shows their desire for happiness, health, safety and other good factors. This feature is also reflected in the names of Chinese dishes to a large extent. For example, on the New Year's Eve dinner, almost every family will have a dish made of fish, representing “abundance”, because in Chinese the words for “fish” (鱼, yu) and “abundance” (余, yu) are the same pronunciation. This expresses people's expectation that they will have harvest and surplus in all aspects in the coming years. At the wedding banquet, people will also prepare some dishes with special meanings. For example, “Crusade against daddy” (早生贵子) is actually a soup cooked with red dates, peanuts and longan to express good wishes for the newlyweds and so on.

'''2. Chinese Culture of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in Cuisine Names'''

Chinese cuisine not only reflects the general mentality of the masses of people, but also contains the cultural connotation of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. The culture of the three religions are the traditional culture of China, namely Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. In the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization, the mutual tolerance of the three religions has formed the idea of “unity of the three religions”. The naming of the dishes also perfectly reflects China's three religions culture. For example, “Kongfu Yiping Pot, the First Pot in Kongfu Style” (孔府一品锅) was named by the emperor. The Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming dynasty grade system, in which the official ranks from one to nine. The first is the highest, and the ninth is the lowest. The Qing Dynasty listed the Sacred Family of the Confucian Mansion (孔府衍圣公) as the first grade. Therefore, the emperor named the dish “the First Pot”, which was made of chicken, pig feet, duck, sea cucumber, fish maw and other precious raw materials cooked into the soup. It also handed down through the ages. (c.f: Zhong Anni 2006, 79-80)

In addition, buddhist vegetarianism is becoming more and more popular due to people's increased awareness of health care. There are many dishes with a strong Buddhist color, such as “Siraitia Grosvenorii” (罗汉果), “Prajna Dishes” (般若菜) are the representatives of the vegetarian restaurant. Their cooking method are unique. Finally, Taoism, which originated in China, has a great influence on the cuisine names. Taoism attaches great importance to health maintenance, emphasizing the health concept of “Yang shall be maintained during Spring and Summer, while its counterpart Yin should be preserved during Autumn and Winter” (春夏养阳，秋冬养阴). It adjusts recipes according to different seasons to achieve harmony between food and season. Dishes such as “Yin and Yang Fish” (阴阳鱼) and “Heaven and Earth Eggs” (乾坤蛋) are named after Taoist culture.

'''3. Regional Features in Cuisine Names'''

There are many schools of Chinese cuisine. Among them, the most influential and representative cuisines are Lu, Chuan, Yue, Min, Su, Zhe, Xiang and Hui cuisines, which are the so-called “eight major cuisines” of China.

The formation of a cuisine is inseparable from its long history and unique cooking characteristics, and is also influenced by factors such as the region’s natural geography, climate conditions, resource specialties, and dietary habits. It is the local characteristic that raw material takes above all. Different physical geographical and climatic conditions form the unique ingredients of dishes in different regions. For example, the Mongolian grassland herding sheep for the industry, there is a “Mutton eaten with hands” (手抓羊肉) characteristic dishes. The regions south of the Yangtze River emphasize farming industry. And snake and frog could often be found in paddy field river, so there is the famous dish “Dragon and Tiger Locked in battle, Thick Soup of Snake, Cat and Chicken”. Sichuan is located in the plateau where its climate is cold. And because of the basin terrain, its humidity is very heavy. Therefore, people who live in Sichuan can drive out the cold by eating more pepper. And “Mapo Tofu”, “Kung Pao Chicken”and other spicy dishes are popular here. Therefore, food raw materials restricted by natural conditions are the objective factors for the formation and inheritance of traditional Chinese cuisine. (Zhong Anni 2006, 79-80)

The second is the production and life needs and tastes of all nationalities and local people. For example, we usually say “south is sweeter", “north is saltier”, “east is spicier”, “west is sourer”, which indicates the preference of people in different places in the taste of dishes. “Sweet and Sour Ribs” and “Sweet and Sour Pork” (咕咾肉) are traditional Cantonese dishes. Their names reflect the hot and humid climate in subtropical Guangzhou, and people need sweet and sour tastes to increase their appetite. (Zhong Anni 2006, 79-80)

Although the dietary customs are actually quite complex, the communication and dissemination of food culture in various regions make them increasingly integrate with each other. The food addiction of a certain region or a certain nation, however, is undoubtedly the subjective factor for the formation and inheritance of traditional Chinese cuisine, namely, the group’s identification of dietary taste. Thus, the food customs of different places can be learned from the names of major cuisines. Finally, it is the different requirements of different nationalities and local people’s cooking methods, including ingredients, cutting techniques, heat control, seasoning and cooking techniques. We can realize the importance of the method of preparation from the color, aroma, taste and shape of each cuisine. For example, Cantonese food stresses freshness and tenderness, and its ingredients are flexible. Shandong cuisine pays attention to crisp, usually blanking with sweet and sour sauce. From the naming methods of the above dishes, we can know that the dishes can reflect the cooking characteristics of these dishes. (Zhong Anni 2006, 79-80)

===The Psychological Functions of Chinese Dish Names===
Nowadays, the restaurant industry is so competitive that in order to attract customers, merchants need to think about the naming of dishes as well as elaborate delicacies. The names of dishes should be beautiful and refined, rich in meaning, or plain and simple. Different naming ways of dishes attract different customers, which reflects the psychological function of dishes.
The most important psychological function of dish names is that they can arouse people’s association. Even if people do not see the shape or enjoy this dish, just taste its name will have unlimited imagination and expectations.

It is not a single process for dishes to arouse people’s association. In the association at the same time can mobilize people’s sense of smell, taste, hearing, vision, and make these senses in an active state, so as to build up a strong synaesthesia enjoyment. By the name of the dishes color, aroma, taste, type of association is such. “Pearl Bean Curd” (珍珠豆腐) and “Golden Prawn” (金钱明虾) are dishes of pearly color and golden brilliance, which give people a good appetite. “Crispy Duck” (脆皮八宝鸭) and “Spiced Beef” (五香牛肉) are all savoury before they are served. Why not taste them yourself ? (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

The association of dish names can also affect people’s mood. For example, through the dishes such as “Eight Immortals Gathering at Yaochi—Fried Eight Delicacies” (八仙瑶池聚会), “Full of Prosperity” (满园春色), people can think of the beautiful images of harvest, festival and reunion, and naturally their moods become better. Relaxed and cheerful mood, often add a beautiful subjective color to food. People may even regard savoring food, consciously or unconsciously, as part of a pleasurable mood. (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

In addition, the association of dish names can arouse people's curiosity, thus increasing the attraction of dishes. For example, “Ribs in the Shape of Buddha hand” (佛手排骨), among which the Buddha hand often appear in ancient Chinese legends and ancient myths. There is a mystery for no one has really seen them. Therefore, they can often arouse people's curiosity. People in order to satisfy their curiosity, they would order this dish and see its truth. (c.f: Zhang Xu 2011, 181-182)

===Conclusion===
The traditional Chinese food culture is extensive and profound, with diverse cuisines and cooking styles, as well as distinctive national characteristics. When people enjoy delicious food, they can learn about the history, cultural customs, legends and traditional culture of Chinese nation. All in all, the names of various Chinese dishes are not only simple words and names, but also carry rich cultural connotation, which is the epitome and reflection of Chinese culture. To study the cultural implications contained in the names of Chinese dishes is to interpret the colorful Chinese culture.

===Abstract===
Miao language is the carrier of Hmong culture which is an important part of the brilliant Chinese culture. Therefore, Miao language and Hmong culture is the largest responsibility for all of us. Through the understanding of the motivation of studying Miao, the origin of the name "Miao," the formation and development of Miao, the distribution of Miao and the characteristics of Miao language, we can arouse people's attention to Miao language and Miao nationality, so as to take effective measures to inherit and protect Miao language in a timely manner.

===Keywords===
Miaoyu,Hmong,the formation and development of Miao, the distribution of Miao,the characteristics of Miao language

===Literature Review===
In our country, before the founding of New China, there have been people who have investigated and studied the Miao language and characters, and published investigation reports or research papers.For example, in January 1917, Zhuang Qi's Outline of Miao Wen was published in Volume 14, No.1, Oriental Magazine.In 1933, Shi Qigui, a Miao scholar, assisted Ling Chunsheng and Rui Yifu, famous ethnologists in China, to investigate and study the Miao nationality in western Hunan. Since then, he continued to investigate and study the Miao nationality area in western Hunan. In 1940, he wrote the Investigation Report of Xiangxi Indigenous Nationalities. In 1951, he wrote Introduction to Xiangxi Brothers.

After the founding of new China ，there were some investigation and study of miao language, some linguists began to attach importance to the investigation and study of miao language.For example, Wang Fushi in "Chinese Journal" in 1952, 6, published the "Miao Language Reform Problem"; After the birth of Miao language in 1956, in order to meet the needs of the promotion of Miao language, in 1958, the Concise Dictionary of Miao and Han in the central dialect and the Concise Dictionary of Miao and Han in the western dialect were published.In the short period after the birth of the Miao language, experts and scholars published many research papers, but the good times did not last long. After three years of natural disasters and the influence of extreme "left" ideological trends, coupled with the civil strife of the "Cultural Revolution," the promotion of the Miao language was forced to suspend, and the Miao language and characters were temporarily left untouched.Until 1978, after the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held, the Party's ethnic policy and ethnic language policy were implemented again, and Miao Wencai resumed🧪 implementation and won a second life.

During the reform and opening-up period, a large number of works on the study of Miao language and characters emerged.The first is to compile and publish the Miao Han Dictionary and other reference books of various dialects;the second is to publish many research works on Miao language, and the third is to publish many research papers. During the 30 years of reform and opening-up, great achievements have been made in language, vocabulary and grammar.In addition, there are many achievements in the study of Miao language in the aspects of bilingual teaching of Miao and Han, the unity of Miao language and culture, and the unity of Miao characters.

At the same time, the language of Miao nationality has also aroused great interest of some foreign scholars.As early as the beginning of the 20th century in 1902, the Japanese Torii Longzang travel southwest provinces in China,made a field survey about miao life. The following year he returned to Japan and compose a book named the Miao Survey Report, the fourth chapter discusses the Miao Language.In 1947, Zhang Kun, a Chinese American, published a paper entitled "Tone Problems in Miao and Yao Dialects," which laid the foundation for tone comparison in Miao dialects.Since the reform and opening up, especially after the 90s, more and more foreign scholars came to China to study the Miao language. In the early 90s, Joak in Enwall of Stockholm University, Sweden (Han name:Yan Youqing) studied the Miao language at the Central University for Nationalities. After returning to Guizhou, he wrote a book entitled Myth Becomes Reality-History and Development of Miao Language (Part 1 and Part 2). Guizhou is the base camp of the Miao people in China and even the world. More foreign scholars have come to Guizhou to study the Miao language.

===Methods and Theories===
This research mainly adopts the literature method, the Miao nationality has a long history of development.If we want to understand the basic situation of Miao language, we must deeply understand the development history of the nation.Only in this way can we have a deeper understanding of the different vitality of language.

===Subtitle 1：The Motivation of the Miaoyu===

In the 1930s, some scholars in the United States began to pay attention to the mass extinction of American Indian languages and Australian Aboriginal languages, which led to a boom in the study of endangered languages.Endangered languages mostly are spoken by only one person, such as Apiaka and Diahoi in Brazil, Pazeh in China Taiwan, which were spoken by only one person until 2009. Similarly, China is a country with many ethnic minorities, so there will be many minority dialects, such as Mongolian, Hakka, Tujia dialect and so on. Language is not only a communicating tool, but also the inheritance of a national culture. Every language is an important embodiment and manifestation of a unique culture and ethnic characteristics of an ethnic group. Minority languages are also facing the same phenomenon, so I want to understand and study the language that is close to my life.

===Subtitle 2:Miao Nationality===
1.The Source of the Name “Miao”

There are different views among Chinese and foreign scholars on the reason for the use of "Miao" as the ethnic name of the Miao people.Foreign scholars believe that Miao is the uncultivated grass growing in a field, indicating that their indigenous tribes,a symbol of savage and uncivilization, were living there before the arrival of the Han nationality.

2.The Distribution of Miao Nationality

(1)Domestic Distribution

The Miao are a long-established, populous and widely distributed ethnic minority in China, and a cosmopolitan people who originate from China but continue to migrate and live across borders.Records of the Miao population have appeared in a number of documents and prescriptions as early as the Ming and Qing dynasties. According to the data of the sixth national census in 2010, the Miao are mainly distributed in Guizhou, Hunan, Yunnan, Chongqing, Guangxi, Hubei, Sichuan and other municipalities and autonomous regions in southwest and south-central China. The Miao in Guizhou province are mainly distributed in the autonomous regions of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong, Qiannan Buyi and Miao, Qiannan Buyi and Miao, as well as Bijie, Tongren, Anshun, and Zunyi, and thus the Miao language they speak is called the Eastern Miao language; the Miao in Hunan province are only distributed in the cities and counties of Jishou and Phoenix in Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture, the autonomous counties of Mayang and Jingzhou in Huaihua, and Shaoyang The Miao in Hunan Province are only found in Jishou and Phoenix in Xiangxi Autonomous Prefecture, Mayang and Jingzhou in Huaihua and Shaoyang City. The Miao in Yunnan province are mainly distributed in Wenshan, Honghe and Zhaotong prefectures; the Miao in Chongqing are mainly distributed in Qianjiang district and three autonomous counties of Pengshui, Xiushan and Youyang; the Miao in Guangxi are mainly distributed in Rongshui, Longlin, Sanjiang, Resources, Xilin and Longsheng counties; the Miao in Hubei province are mainly distributed in Exi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture; the Miao in Sichuan province are mainly distributed in two areas of Yibin and Jialing.

(2)Overseas Distribution

The Hmong in foreign countries are mainly located in Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Burma, the United States, France, Canada, Australia, Argentina and other places.
In Vietnam, most of the Hmong call themselves "Mon" Hmongb, and only a small part of them call themselves "Na Miao", and the Hmong branch in Vietnam can be divided into five main branches: "White" Hmong Hmongb dleub, who call themselves "Mon Dou"; "Black Hmong", who call themselves "Mona Hmongb Dlob; Hmong shib, which calls itself "Monsi"; "Flowering" or "Green", which calls itself "Monleng "Hmongbnzhuab; the Han Hmong call themselves Hmongb shuab. They usually live in the high mountain jungle with a sea area of 800-1700 meters, where the terrain is precipitous, with jagged rocks, high mountains and deep streams, narrow roads, and a subtropical monsoon climate with abundant rainfall in most areas and a rainy and dry season.

The religious beliefs of the Hmong in Southeast Asia are basically similar to those of the Hmong in China. Vietnamese Hmong scholars believe that the "five harmful ghosts" that can attach themselves to people are the most frightening. Once a person is found to be possessed by the "Five Harmful Ghosts", a ghost master must be called in immediately to cure the illness and drive away the ghosts. The Lao Hmong believe that there are spirits for everything, and there are spirits for water, fertilizer, roads, rice fields, hunting, stoves, living rooms, etc. Each family has its own unique god, and some people even believe that the god is their ancestor, and they have to meet with the god once a year.

===Subtitle 3:The origin of the Hmong and the historical formation of the Hmong===
1.Origin of the Miao

Due to the lack of exact historical evidence, posterity can only trace the origin of the Miao people from the historical memories of the Miao people in western Hunan. The first is the memory of the formation of heaven and earth. Based on the oral narratives of the Shishougui family, a Ba Dai family in Dongmaku Township, Huayuan County, Xiangxi, the domestic academic community has successively described the simple understanding of the Miao ancestors about the formation of heaven and earth, the emergence of human beings, the origin of civilization and the development of society.

There is also a romantic description of the appearance of the sun and the moon. In the ancient folk tale "The Story of the Nine Suns" and the folk narrative poem "The Story of Ban Dongchen", which are included in the folklore materials of western Hunan, the hero shoots the sun in a more complete plot. With the assistance of a falcon, an old bull, a big black dog and a gray rooster, Ming Naxiong shoots the golden and silver eggs, which are transformed into eight suns and moons, laid by the nine-headed monster bird on the sun tree, respectively. He eventually bends the marsang tree in the battle with the vicious fire bird and jumps into the moon, transforming into a star of enlightenment. The plot of "Moving the Moon" is slightly different. It tells the story of Liu Chun and Ah Xiu, a couple under Dali Mountain, who are determined to find the sun by riding a rooster when they learn that the sun has been locked into the cavern at the bottom of the sea by the devil king in Ter Mountain due to the flooding of their fields and the darkness of the earth. Liu Chun was killed, his son Jitai grew up and succeeded his father, with the help of the thousand-year-old eunuch, his father's spirit and the dragon king, he got the earth powder, killed the fox spirit who transformed into an old woman, and finally fought against the devil king, the brocade rooster pecked the devil's eye and rescued the imprisoned sun.

The second is the memory of the origin of human beings, that is, the origin of the Hmong. According to the literature compiled by the scholars, in the ancient times, the two people in the sky were at odds with each other, so Wo Shou was imprisoned by Wo Bi, and he was able to get away by coaxing his children to send water and fire. A pair of children of Wo Bik were sheltered inside the melon seeds given by Wo Shou and were spared. When the flood receded, the two siblings married, a year after the birth of the child cut into a hundred pieces, respectively, thrown to various places, "a piece in the house, sealed as Wu; a piece on the Dragon Mountain, only to have the Dragon family line of people; a piece on the stone called stone; a piece on the hemp garden, he shouted into the hemp surname people; the last piece of nowhere to throw, it will be left in the dust,; later changed people on the surname Liao. From then on there are a hundred family names."

2.Historical formation of the Hmong

This geographical distribution pattern of the Miao in China today is the result of numerous migrations in the history of the formation and development of the Miao people. According to scholars, from the historical documents of the Miao, "the Miao ancestors originally inhabited the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in China, and migrated to the 'left Dongting' and 'right Pengli' areas during the 'Three Miao' era. ' of the river and lake plains. Later, due to wars and other reasons, they kept migrating south and west into the southwest mountains and the Yunnan-Guizhou plateau. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Miao distribution has formed the present pattern".

The Miao have undergone five major migrations in their thousands of years of development history to form the present geographical distribution pattern, which has not only shaped the Miao's swarthy, tough, united and defiant national character, but also created a distinctive national culture with gorgeous and colorful music.

Regarding the ethnic origin of the Miao, there are different views, but these views are summarized as follows: the indigenous people of Jianghuai, the south, the west, the north, and the "Jiu Li San Miao", among which the "Jiu Li San Miao" is the most influential. Miao ethnic origin can be traced back to the earliest ancient times to Chi You as the leader of the Jiu Li tribal alliance living in the lower and middle reaches of the Yellow River and the lower and middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Later, Chi You had a fierce conflict with another two tribal alliance led by Yan Di and Huang Di in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and was finally defeated by Huang Di in the Battle of Zhuo Lu, Chi You was killed, and some of the tribesmen were integrated into Yan and Huang tribes, while most of them migrated south and settled in today's Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake area, forming a new tribal alliance in the period of Yao, Shun and Yu. The Sanmiao had fierce struggle with the tribal alliance led by Yao, Shun and Yu in history, and then the tribal alliance gradually disintegrated after Yu's many conquests and defeats, and after the demise of the Sanmiao tribe, most of the other tribes started to make a big migration.

During the Qin and Han dynasties, most of the Miao ancestors were distributed in the present-day Xiang, E, Chongqing and Qian adjacent areas. From the Qin and Han Dynasties until the Tang Dynasty, the Miao ancestors experienced the third major migration in history. Most of them migrated from the Wuling Mountains to the southwest of Sichuan and Guizhou, and some even migrated to Yunnan and Guangxi. Since the fourth and fifth migrations were basically from the Wuling Mountains to the southwest, we believe that the third migration of the Miao ancestors was of great significance to the formation of their ethnic group, which basically laid the present distribution pattern of the Miao and laid a solid foundation for the formation of a stable ethnic community.

===Subtitle 4: Miao Folk Beliefs===
The Miao folk in western Hunan worship the sky, and they mainly rely on natural phenomena such as the sky, wind, rain, lightning, sun, moon and stars in the natural world. The reason why the Miao folk in western Hunan worship the sky, water and rain is due to the local climate of little rain and lack of water. Although the climate of Miaojiang in western Hunan does not have hot and cold winters, it shows the characteristics of inverted spring chill, dry and hot summer lacking rain, and cloudy and sunny weather having a great influence on temperature. At the peak of summer, the weather is dry and there is little rainfall, and drought seriously affects the growth of crops.

Their faith in the worship of the sky is mainly based on the sky, water and rain, and there are corresponding rituals.

The first is the worship of the sky. Whenever the spring plowing season comes, that is, in the third month of the lunar calendar, people who have fields at home first ask a Yin-Yang man to choose an auspicious day. At that time, the head of the family brings some incense, paper, half a catty of white wine and four taels of boiled pork to the family's fields to pay homage to "God" and pray for a good harvest this year.

Secondly, it is the worship of water. Before the tap water came into the village, it was the source of water for the villagers' daily life and farmland. During the annual festival, the villagers would carry incense, paper, wine, meat and other offerings to the well to worship, expecting the well water to be inexhaustible.

Once again, it was the worship of rainwater. The summer festival is a standardized ritual held by the state specifically to pray for rain and a good harvest for all the grains, which originated from the primitive society to control nature by way of simulation or contact. It is also one of the rituals of the Heavenly Rites, which is called "Da" because it is combined with the worship of God, the supreme god, and is held regularly.

In times of severe drought, the Miao people in western Hunan collect money to buy ritual items and ask Ba Dai to go to the ditch, river or cave near the village to pray for rain from the gods such as the Dragon King and the Thunder God. Generally, they use such methods as "taking the river", "playing the river" and "making people in the river".

===Subtitle 5:Overview of the Hmong Language===
Language is one of the most important cultural elements of a people, and is the most important communication tool within the ethnic community for the exchange of ideas and contacts. From a linguistic point of view, the Miao language belongs to the Miao-Yao branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family. Although the Miao people have their own language, there was no script representing the Miao language until the 1950s. The Miao language used by the Miao people is only a form of speech passed down orally, without a specific script. Although it is mentioned in some Hmong historical songs and folklore that the Hmong had writing in history, it was later lost due to various reasons. In some documents of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there are records indicating that the Hmong in some areas do seem to have written. These scripts are mainly of two types: one is created by advanced Miao intellectuals influenced by Chinese characters or other language scripts. For example, Shibantang, a Miao poet in western Hunan, used the "six books" of Chinese characters to create a square-shaped Miao script, borrowing from Chinese characters. Second, foreign missionaries and Miao advanced intellectuals together using part of the Latin alphabet and notation symbols to create, although the creation of this kind of writing is beneficial to the development of the Miao people, but it is mainly the missionaries in order to facilitate the missionary and the Miao advanced intellectual characters created in collaboration. For example, the old Miao script of Weining Shimenkan, also known as "Po La alphabet Miao script". However, these Miao scripts were not widely disseminated and were only used regionally and could not be popularized.

After the founding of New China, the Party and the government were very concerned about the writing of the Miao people and sent many working groups and task forces to investigate and study the Miao language. The Miao language is an extremely complex language, mainly reflected in the great differences in dialects and subdialects and the large number of vernaculars. Regarding the division of Miao language, the most representative one is the division method in the report "Division of Miao dialects and writing problems" made by the Second Task Force of the Minority Language Survey of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1956 at the scientific discussion of Miao language and writing problems. In the report, the Miao language was divided into four dialects: Eastern, Central, Western and Northeastern Yunnan, and on July 8, 1957, the Central Committee of the People's Republic of China held a symposium on ethnic language work and changed the Eastern dialect to Xiangxi dialect, the Central dialect to Qiandong dialect, the Western dialect to Chuanqian-Tian dialect, and the Northeastern Yunnan dialect was still called Northeastern Yunnan dialect. The second is the division of the Miao language into three major dialects, seven subdialects, and 18 vernaculars in the division of the French language by Mr. Wang Fushi in "The Problem of Dividing the Miao Dialects" (1983). Some other scholars also put forward their different views on the division of Miao languages, such as Xian Songkui, Chen Qiguang, Wu Zhengbiao and Yang Zaibiao. However, their division is for the subdialects or vernaculars within the three major dialects of Miao.

Regarding the division of Miao dialects, this paper mainly borrows the division method from Mr. Wang Fushi. The Miao language is mainly divided into dialects according to phonetic differences. It can be divided into three major dialects, namely Xiangxi dialect, Qiandong dialect, and Chuanqian Dian dialect. Among the three major dialects, the Xiangxi dialect and Qiandong dialect have small differences within each north, and only the differences between native languages. The Sichuan-Guizhou-Yunnan dialect, on the other hand, has more internal differences and can be divided into seven major subdialects.

1.Characteristics of Xiangxi dialect

The Xiangxi dialect is divided into western and eastern vernaculars. The western dialect is mainly spoken in Huayuan, Phoenix, Baojing, Jishou, Guzhang, Longshan and Xinfeng Dong autonomous counties in Hunan Province; Songtao Miao autonomous county and Tongren in Guizhou Province; Xiushan in Sichuan Province; Xuanen, Laifeng and Xianfeng in Hubei Province; and Hechi and Nandan in Guangxi Province Zhuang Autonomous Region. Eastern dialects are mainly spoken in Luxi County and parts of Guzhang, Jishou, Longshan and other counties in Hunan Province.

2.Qiandong dialect

The Qiandong dialect is divided into three dialects: northern, eastern and southern. The northern dialect is mainly spoken in Kaili, Majiang, Dantai, Leshan, Taijiang, Huangping, Jianhe, Zhenyuan, Sansui, Shibing, Sandu Shui Autonomous County, Fuchuan, Pingba, Zhenning Buyi Miao Autonomous County, Xingren, Zhengfeng, Anlong, Wangmu and other counties in Guizhou Province. The eastern native languages are mainly spoken in Rongjiang, Congjiang, Danzhai and Sandu Shui autonomous counties in Guizhou Province, and in Rongshui Miao autonomous county and Sanjiang Dong autonomous county in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

3.Chuanqian Dian dialect

The internal dialect of Chuanqian Dian is relatively complex and can be divided into seven subdialects, including Chuanqian Dian, Northeast Dian, Guiyang, Huishui, Mashan, Luopohe, and Chonganjiang.

The Chuanqian Dian dialect is divided into two vernaculars, the first and the second. The first dialect is mainly spoken in Changning, Muli, Yanbian, etc. in Sichuan Province, Jinsha and Chishui in Guizhou Province, Zhenxiong and Weixin in Yunnan Province, and Longlin Autonomous County, Xilin and Napo in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The second dialect is spoken in Nayong and Hezhang counties of Guizhou Province and Shuicheng Special Zone of Liupanshui City, and the range is very small.

The northeastern Yunnan subdialect is not divided into four dialects, which are spoken in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces; the Huishui subdialect is divided into four dialects: northern, southwestern, central and eastern. The northern dialect is spoken in Guiyang Gaopo and Yanchang, Huishui County; the southwestern dialect is spoken in Yashui and Sandu, Huishui County; the central dialect is spoken in parts of Chengguan and Pendleton counties, Huishui County. The eastern dialect is mainly spoken in Xiguan and other places in Pingba County.

The Mashan subdialect is divided into four dialects: central, northern, western and southern. The central dialect is mainly spoken in Zongdi and Baihua of Ziyun County; the northern dialect is spoken in Daihua and Huishui of Changshun County; the western dialect is spoken in Waiting Field and Dazhai of Ziyun County, Guizhou Province; the southern dialect is spoken in Mashan and Lekuan of Wangmo County.

The Luopo River subdialect is not divided into native languages and is spoken in the adjacent areas of Fuchuan, Guiding, Longli and Kaiyang counties and in Laojunzhai and large and small bubblewood places in Kaili County.

The Chonganjiang subdialect, which does not have a native language, is spoken in Maple Sugar, Chongren and Chongren in Huangping County, Guizhou, and in Longchang, Gouchang and Longshan in Kaili County.

(1)The sound-rhyme system of the three major dialects of Hmong is shown in the table
The table shows the similarities and differences in the phonological systems of the three major dialects of Hmong. In terms of vowels, the three major dialects of Miao have more vowels than rhymes. Relatively speaking, the western Xiang dialect has the most abundant vowels. The three major dialects have fewer rhymes, while the Sichuan-Guizhou-Yunnan dialect has more rhymes.

(2)Hmong Vocabulary Characteristics - An Example from the Western Hunan Dialect
The Miao language is rich in vocabulary and has a variety of word formation devices. The vocabulary of the western Hunan dialect also contains a large number of words that reflect the unique geographical and human environment and socio-economic life of the local Miao people. For example, there are many words related to mountains and water, such as "mountain range [qo zei]" and "rice [nw]", and many words reflecting local mountain flora and fauna and special economic crops, such as "rabbit [ta la]". rabbit [ta la]".

In terms of word formation, the Xiangxi dialect can be divided phonetically into monophthongs and polysyllabic words. Monosyllabic words consist of one syllable, such as "我[we]" and "你[mw]", while polysyllabic words consist of two or more syllables.
Compared with Chinese, the Xiangxi dialect has fewer synonyms and more polysyllabic words, and one word is usually used to represent several synonyms in Chinese. For example, ei can mean "look, see, look at, see" in Chinese.

The vocabulary of Miao dialect contains a large number of Chinese loanwords, which are both early and modern. Most of the early loanwords are monosyllabic words, such as "silver, thousand, wine, etc."; most of the modern loanwords are later borrowed words related to politics, military, economy, science, culture, etc., such as "Communist Party, class, RMB, machine, radio, etc."

The borrowing of a large number of Chinese words has had a profound impact on the phonological, lexical and grammatical systems of the Xiangxi dialect. In terms of vocabulary, the influence is mainly manifested in the substitution of modern loanwords for early loanwords and the use of modern loanwords with early loanwords. In terms of grammar, the massive borrowing of Chinese words had a great impact on the diction of the Xiangxi dialect, and formed a very distinctive linguistic phenomenon in the Xiangxi dialect - the Miao-Chinese hybrid words. In the Xiangxi dialect, some things are expressed in generic terms plus proper terms, so after borrowing Chinese words, the proper terms inherent in the Miao language are often added in front of the Chinese words, thus forming Miao-Chinese mixed words.

(2)Hmong grammatical characteristics - taking the western Xiangxi dialect as an example

In the Xiangxi dialect of Miao language, words can be divided into nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, loanwords, conjunctions, pronouns, numerals, quantifiers, coronals, auxiliaries, etc.; sentence components include subject, predicate, epithet, object, complement, determiner and gerund; sentence types include single and compound sentences: declarative, imperative, interrogative and exclamatory sentences according to the tone. Word formation and order are the main grammatical tools of the Xiangxi dialect, and the order of words is basically the same as that of Chinese.

The Miao script was created by Shi Qigui, a famous Miao scholar, around 1956. In 1956, after a comprehensive census of the Miao language, the Second Task Force on Minority Language Survey of the Chinese Academy of Sciences formally created the Miao texts of the three major dialects. The Miao script of the Xiangxi dialect is based on the Miao language of Jiwei Township, Huayuan County, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hunan Province, and has 48 vowels, 35 rhymes and 6 tone letters.

The Miao language is the crystallization of the wisdom accumulated by the Miao people for thousands of years, bearing the spiritual home of this nation, the soul and blood of this nation. At present, although the Miao language is still an important communication tool for the Miao people in the Miao community, especially in those Miao villages that live in high mountains and have limited transportation. However, with the development of social economy and convenient transportation, more and more Miao people are coming out of the mountains to participate in the economic construction and social mobility of the whole country, so we need to do a good job of inheritance and protection of Miao.

===Conclusion===
China is a multi-ethnic family, and the Miao language in the western Hunan region is facing the same problems as other ethnic languages. Language endangerment is a national phenomenon, and foreign countries have richer experience in the preservation and revival of endangered languages. Usually, the revival of Hebrew is known as the most successful case of language revival, so we can learn from the advanced experience of foreign countries in protecting and reviving endangered languages. For example, opening native language preservation centers, training community members to record and describe languages, providing native language instruction, and compiling dictionaries. We should take into account the actual situation of language endangerment in western Hunan and fully learn from the mature experience abroad to accelerate the preservation of minority languages and cultures in our region.

<center>'''On Phonetic Loan Character (Tongjiazi) in Chinese and its English Translation in The Analects of Confucius'''</center>

<center>LiYuan</center>

===Abstract===
The use of phonetic loan characters is a unique language phenomenon in ancient Chinese, and it is also a key and difficult point in understanding ancient Chinese and translating ancient Chinese texts. This paper draws on methods of literary research, comparative research and historical research to introduce phonetic loan characters and their differences from ancient and modern characters, variant characters and characters acquiring meanings by phonetic association, and then to sort out the historical origin and development of phonetic loan characters and their role in the history of Chinese character development. When working on translation tasks with phonetic loan characters, translators should possess some skills and quality, such as the ability to use computer-assisted translation technology to identify and verify phonetic loan characters in the original text in an effort to accurately understand the meaning of the original text. Taking some phonetic loan characters in The Analects of Confucius as an example, this paper summarizes the English translation methods of these characters, such as literal translation of the original character, literal translation of the phonetic loan character and paraphrasing, in the hope of providing some suggestions and inspiration for the English translation of phonetic loan characters, assisting translators to do better translating work of ancient Chinese classics, allowing Chinese culture to go global better and improving the effect of cultural communication.

===Key words===
phonetic loan characters(tongjiazi); English translation methods; The Analects of Confucius

===Introduction===
The existence of a large number of phonetic loan characters(tongjiazi) in ancient books is one of the main reasons why ancient Chinese books are so difficult to read. They are an important part in the development of the Chinese character, and there are specific subjective and objective factors that led to their coming into being and fading out. They were created in a specific historical context, and then stopped because of the requirements of the evolution of Chinese character. The so-called ancient phonetic tongue interchangeability was used in the written language of ancient Chinese for the common use of homophonic or similar-sounding characters (Wang Li, 1999:546). In order to grasp the definition of Tongjiazi accurately, it is necessary to clarify its difference from ancient and modern characters (Gujinzi), variant characters (Yitizi) and characters acquiring meanings by phonetic association (Jiajiezi), which can be compared and analyzed in terms of pronunciation, form and meaning, and must not be confused. These four types of character use are all about the relationship between two Chinese characters, so it is possible to analyze whether these two characters are related in terms of pronunciation, form and meaning. There are two opinions in the history on the role played by Tongjiazi in the development of Chinese characters: one is on the negative side, believing that they undermine the purity of ancient Chinese characters and create obstacles to their standardized use; the other is on the positive side, holding that they play a very important transitional role in the development of Chinese characters, and that their appearance is in accordance with the laws of Chinese character evolution, and that they should be evaluated in a reasonable and objective manner. When translating ancient Chinese works such as literature and medicine classics into English, the identification, verification, comprehension and translation of Tongjiazi can be of paramount importance, which places higher demands on the translator, who must not only have basic translator skills, but also master basic skills such as verification and analysis. There are only two papers on the subject of English translations of passwords on the Internet, and the original texts are all medical texts, which means that the field of English translations of passwords still needs more exploration. In this paper, the English translation of Xu Yuanchong's text of the Analects of Confucius is taken as an example, and the translation methods used in translating the passages are analysed. hopes that the study of the English translation of passages in canonical texts will take a step forward, and that more scholars and translators will pay attention to the study of the English translation of passages.

===Definition of phonetic loan characters (Tongjiazi)===
The use of a character with the same or similar pronunciation is one of the phenomena of Chinese character use, where a character with the same or similar pronunciation is used instead of the original character. For various reasons, instead of using the original character, the writer temporarily borrows a character with the same or a similar sound. In modern times, when the official standard characters are used, sometimes the original character is not adopted, and a specific character is used as the standard character. As can be seen, a generic character is a borrowing of an existing character. The character that is replaced by a generic character is called the 'original character'. They may or may not have the same or similar pronunciation, different forms, or related meanings as the original character.
To clearly define a generic word, one needs to be aware of its distinction and connection with archaic and modern words, variant words and pseudonyms. Ancient and modern characters are different words used in the same word in ancient and modern times, and this group of words is called ancient and modern characters. As can be seen, the ancient and modern characters both have the same pronunciation, related word forms and the same meaning, and are a phenomenon of substitution through time. In contrast, a generic character appears at a particular time in place of the original character, and is a kind of co-temporal substitution. A variant character is two characters that have the same pronunciation and meaning, but are written in different ways. In contrast, a generic character has the same pronunciation as the original character, but is not written in the same sense or in the same way. A pseudoword is a substitution for a word that was not there, where the ancients were writing to express the meaning of a word, but did not have such a word for their use, so they substituted a word with the same or similar pronunciation, in which case the original character appears to be missing. By contrast a pass-word is a substitution for a word that is already there.
It can be seen that there are several characteristics of the Tongjiao character: firstly, it is a pseudonym; secondly, there is an original character; thirdly, it is a co-temporal substitution; and fourthly, it is homophonic, non-homonymous and non-homomomorphic. Therefore, it can be defined as a co-temporal substitution of the original character, which is homophonic, heteromorphic and heteronymous with the original character.

===Origin and Development of phonetic loan characters (Tongjiazi)===
This article summarises the following theories about the origins of tongyongzi, or the causes of tongyongzi.

One is due to the limited number of ancient Chinese characters. The emergence and development of Chinese characters was a long process, with character forms emerging from nothing, numbers increasing from few to many, and usage going from arbitrary to standardised. During this process, then, there was bound to be an imbalance between the number of Chinese characters and the need for ideograms, and there were not enough Chinese characters to meet the needs of the ancients for oral expression and written records. In this case, the phenomenon of pseudo-borrowing came into being. In his Shuowen Jiezi, Xu Shen writes: "A pseudo-borrower is one who originally has no character, but relies on the sound to support the matter, so that the long is also." This is the situation he is referring to, where for an object, for which there was no Chinese character at the time to represent the object, existing Chinese characters were borrowed to assign a character form and sound to the object. In this way, as a pseudonym for an existing character, the appearance of a generic character would have followed the appearance of the pseudonym.

One reason is that ancient Chinese characters did not develop a fixed normative usage. In addition, the ancients created a character to express a meaning, but which character should be used to express which meaning was still in the process of being formed, and there was no certain rule that one could use this character to express a certain meaning, and another character with the same or similar sound to express that meaning.

One is due to the influence of dialects. Due to the lack of technology, when recording history, articles, literary works, etc. in ancient times, they were dictated by some readers and recorded by others in writing. These readers also recited the content from their own memory, and their pronunciation may have been influenced by the dialect and they could not say the sound of some words, and then the writers often heard one word as another and recorded the same word in different forms.

One is the ancient emphasis on the sound of words rather than their form. The ancients believed that language existed by virtue of sound, and emphasized that the sound was the meaning of the word, and that the hearer knew the meaning when he heard the sound, so the ancients often recorded the words according to sound. In this way, the creation of tongyong characters was a natural consequence of the contradictory movement between the ideographic nature of Chinese characters and the phonetic nature of Chinese (Tan Lin, 1987).

One is to forget the original word and substitute it with the same sound. The ancient people, when making records, could not think of the original word and used a different word instead, as pointed out by Zhao Yi of the Qing Dynasty: "The word with the same sound and different meaning is unknown to common scholars, and is often written by mistake, as the world calls it." The first person to write this way was of course writing a white character, as mentioned earlier, but when later people followed suit, it became a "generic" character.

One is out of the need to keep things simple. When the ancients kept records, if the character was too complex and time-consuming to write, they would use a character with the same or similar pronunciation to replace the character and save writing time.

One is for the sake of avoidance. It was most taboo for the ancients to call their parents by the word in their names, or to write the word in their parents' names directly, borrowing other words instead. All but the emperor himself could not write the name of the emperor of the dynasty.

The creation and development of the Tongjiao character is inseparable from history. During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, when a hundred schools of thought were contending for supremacy, society at the time was full of new ideas and changes, and the unprecedented demand and usefulness of written records had a major impact on the evolution and development of Chinese characters. During this period, colloquial characters were popular in the Eastern states, with a variety of traditional and simplified characters and different scripts in all countries, which became a major source for the creation of variant, homograph and passwords in later times (Chen Zheng, 2015). It was only after the Qin state unified the six states and implemented the "same script", using the small seal script as the unified script for the whole country, that the use of characters became more standardized and the use of common pseudonyms gradually decreased. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xu Shen's "Shuowen Jiezi" was published and the use of characters became more standardised, with emphasis on the form of characters rather than their sound. During the Wei, Jin and North-South dynasties, some literati still used pass-words, but during the Tang and Song dynasties, apart from the occasional use of previous pass-words in folk literature, new pass-words were generally not written, and any use of previous pass-words or new pass-words was seen as a misspelling of characters. From this time onwards, the use of tongyong characters was gradually discontinued, but the tongyong characters in the works of the literati and canonical writings of the period before then remained unchanged. After the advent of the vernacular, the use of the Tongjiao characters ceased completely. Many experts and scholars have systematized and standardized the customary usage of the ancient Tong Pai characters by sorting out and examining them, and have published some ancient Chinese dictionaries to facilitate modern readers' access to the explanations and usage of Tong Pai characters.

===The Role of phonetic loan characters (Tongjiazi) in the Development of Chinese Characters===
The existence of pass-words has become a huge reading obstacle, making it very difficult for modern people to read and understand ancient writings, which is the intuitive feeling of pass-words nowadays. As to the role, or significance, of the existence of tongyong characters, some previous scholars have argued that tongyong characters were a counter-current in the history of Chinese character development, destroying the purity of Chinese characters. However, although the use of pass-words ceased in the Tang and Song dynasties, they can still be found in ancient books, and the ancients did not revise all previous pass-words after their use was standardised, so it is clear that pass-words should have their own unique role in the history of Chinese character development, and an objective perspective should be adopted to evaluate their existence. According to Tan Lin (1987), the role of tongyong is, firstly, a major morphological shift in the use of character harmonies; secondly, tongyong reflects the richness and dynamism of the Chinese vocabulary; thirdly, tongyong contributes to increasing the effect of Chinese characters in conveying word meanings; and fourthly, the standardisation of Chinese characters is a regular requirement in the development of tongyong. The existence of passwords is a product of the process of Chinese character development, and provides a basis for future generations to examine the history of Chinese character development. As a historical phenomenon, the use of characters was social rather than personal, and the correspondence of the characters in ancient texts was largely fixed (Wei Ying, 2013: 27).

===Influence of phonetic loan characters (Tongjiazi) on translation===
To translate ancient texts, it is a crucial step to identify the common characters in them. It is only by successfully identifying the pass-words that the meaning of the sentence can be correctly understood and the translation can be ensured to be smooth and fluent, so the English translation of pass-words is of research value. With the development of the times, the majority of ancient texts now have annotated versions, that is, in-language translations, from literary texts into modern Chinese with annotations on some words in the original text, and there are also some ancient Chinese dictionaries compiled by experts and scholars, etc., all of which have contributed to the translation of pass-words. At this point, the choice of the translation base will also affect the effectiveness of the translation. The translator should have the ability to identify authoritative base texts, as well as the ability to discern, and should not follow the base texts in translating. For some pass-words, if the translation feels that there is a problem with the annotation, resulting in the meaning not being smooth, the translation should be promptly checked, and methods such as asking ancient Chinese researchers and consulting the relevant ancient Chinese dictionaries can be adopted. In addition, in today's fast-changing world of modern science and technology, translators should be good at using technology to assist translation. In recent years, computer-aided translation technologies such as corpora, terminology databases and memory banks have developed rapidly, which have also facilitated the translation of common and false characters in ancient Chinese. Translators can make a corpus and a memory bank of the ancient Chinese canonical texts they have translated before, and a terminology bank of the translations of pass-words, as well as authoritative translations of some canonical texts, of which the translations of pass-words are made into a terminology bank. In this way, subsequent translation tasks have a parallel corpus to refer to, saving a lot of time in checking. In addition, by typing in the keywords "通假字" and "英译" on the Chinese Internet, I found that there are only two papers on the English translation of Tong Pao characters, one of which is "An Analysis of Tong Pao Characters in the English Translation of Chinese Medical Terms --The other one is "An Analysis of the Treatment of Tong Fei Characters in the English Translation of the Jin Kui Yao (Essentials of Jin Kui): An Example of Luo Xiwen's Translation", and the other one is "An Analysis of the Treatment of Tong Fei Characters in the English Translation of the The study is focused on the use of the Chinese characters in Chinese medical texts. This shows that the depth of research in the field of English translations of passwords is still far from adequate.

===English translation methods of phonetic loan characters (Tongjiazi) in the Analects of Confucius ===
The number of passwords in the Analects is relatively small, and the content is relatively easy to understand. Compared to the English versions by foreign translators, Xu Yuanchong has stronger Chinese language skills and is more accurate in his understanding of the original text. In Xu Yuanchong's translation of the Analects, the main methods of translating the passages into English are the direct translation of the original characters, the
(1)ST:其在宗庙朝廷, 便便言, 唯谨尔。 (《乡党》)
TT: At court or in the ducal ancestral temple he spoke readily and chose his words with care.
In this sentence, "便" means "argue". The original meaning of "convenient" is to be comfortable, while the original meaning of "argue" is to conduct a case, which requires good speech. Therefore, in the sense of "good at speech", "便" is used as "辯". In Xu Yuanchong's translation, "便便言" is translated as "he spoke readily", which according to the Oxford Dictionary means "According to the Oxford Dictionary, the word 'readily' means 'quickly and without difficulty', which indeed has a meaning of being eloquent. As for the translation method, "readily" is not a direct translation of the original word "辯", but rather a synonymic paraphrase combining the generic word and the original word.
(2)ST:子曰：“加我数年，五十以学易，可以无大过矣。” (《述而》)
TT: Give me a few more years, said the Master, to study the Book of Change after fifty, I may be free from error.
In this sentence, "加" is used as "假", meaning "give", and the translation is "give" .
(3)ST:子曰：“道不行，乘桴浮于海。从我者，其由舆？” (《公治长》)
TT: The Master said, “If the truth I peach were not followed, I would float on the sea by a raft, who would then follow me but Zi Lu?”
(4)ST:缁衣, 羔裘;素衣, 麑裘;黄衣, 狐裘。 (《乡党》)
TT: He wears a black robe over lamp’ s skin, a white robe of undyed silk over fawn’s fur, or a yellow robe over fox’s fur.
In this sentence, the word '麑' means '幼鹿'. In ancient times, people wore leather clothes with the fur facing outwards, so they had to have an overcoat on the outside. The colour of the fur coat and the covering coat should match. The hair of a young deer is white, so the deerskin coat should be matched with a white outer covering. This phrase is also a direct translation of the word 'fawn'.
(5)ST:子曰:“吾十有五而志于学, 三十而立, 四十而不惑, 五十而知天命, 六十而耳顺, 七十而从心所欲, 不踰矩。” (《为政》) 。
TT: At fifteen, said the Master, I was fond of learning. At thirty, I was established. At forty, I did not waver. At fifty, I knew sacred mission. At sixty, I had a discerning ear. At seventy, I could do what I would without going beyond what is right.In this sentence, the word "have" is translated as "again", meaning "again, plus". The word "ten and five" means "ten plus five years", or "fifteen years", and is translated as "fifteen". The translation is "fifteen". The translation method adopted is a direct translation of the generic word, because the meaning of "there" as "again, plus" has already been agreed upon, and the actual meaning is known even without the perspective of the generic word and the original word.
(6) ST:子曰:“夏礼, 吾能言之, 杞不足徵也;殷礼, 吾能言之, 宋不足徵也。文献不足故也。足, 则吾能徵之矣。” (《八佾》)
TT: The rites of the Xia Dynasty, said the Master, can be described, but I do not rely on the evidence supplied by its descendants of Qi. The rites of the Yin Dynasty can be described, but I do not rely on the evidence supplied by its descendants of Song. For there are no sufficient documents. Otherwise, the rites of Qi and Song can be described.
In this sentence, "獻" means "ritual", and the original meaning of "獻" is the dog used in the temple sacrifice. The word "document" refers to a book or a sage. The word "documents" has been used in modern Chinese to refer to records and records, so it is directly translated as "documents".

===Conclusion===
This article introduces the definition of a generic character in ancient Chinese, i.e. a co-temporal substitution of a character that originally existed and was homophonically different from the original character. One was due to the need for simplicity; one was due to the need to avoid taboo, and the common characters appeared in large numbers during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and were completely discontinued with the advent of vernacular Chinese. It is one of the reasons why ancient Chinese texts are difficult to understand, and is the key to understanding them, as well as a major difficulty for translators when translating such texts. When translating such texts, then, translators need to acquire certain literacy and skills. In addition to a certain level of literacy and literacy and a basic grasp of the style and sentence structure of literary texts, they also need to have the ability to identify and verify passwords. In addition, modern translators should master certain computer-assisted translation techniques, learn to make and use terminology databases, corpora and memory banks, and accumulate a large number of parallel texts to facilitate and support translation practice and translation research on passages. This paper takes Xu Yuanchong's English translation of Theses as an example, analyses the English translation of the pass-words in it, and comes up with three methods for the English translation of pass-words: direct translation of the original characters, direct translation of the pass-words, and synonymous paraphrasing, in order to make the research on the English translation of pass-words in canonical texts a step forward, and to make more scholars and translators pay attention to the research on the English translation of pass-words, so as to produce higher quality English translations of Chinese canonical texts and better spread Chinese language and culture abroad.

===Introduction===
The exchange of languages carries the blending of cultures. If China wants to promote the good image of Chinese culture and convey the scientific concept of peaceful development, it needs to let the world understand Chinese and let the world speak Chinese.
In order to enhance the understanding of Chinese language and culture among people from all over the world, and to provide an excellent and convenient learning environment for learners from all over the world, China has begun to cooperate in various ways to establish Confucius Institutes with the content of Chinese language teaching and Chinese culture dissemination in places where there is a need and conditions. So far, hundreds of Confucius Institutes have been established around the world. The establishment of the Confucius Institute has brought Chinese culture closer to Westerners, enabling people of all countries to have "zero distance" contact and learn the authentic Chinese culture in their own countries. The Confucius Institute was established on the basis of the inspiration of foreign cultural institutions established by other countries in the world and the experience of relevant foreign institutions to promote their own national languages. In this way, we can learn from the management mechanism and communication of the existing international language and culture promotion institutions. strategy, highlighting the Chinese characteristics of the Confucius Institute. At the same time, the establishment of the Confucius Institute is conducive to promoting the exchange and integration of Chinese culture and the cultures of other countries in the world, helping to enhance the soft power of China's national culture, and becoming a global cultural brand that promotes Chinese culture and Sinology.

===Abstract===
An idiom is created and accumulated by a nation in its development. It has a rich national feature and reflects the historical tradition of the nation. Idioms are the most vivid and vital part of a language. English and Chinese idioms are influenced by their respective language and culture and have rich cultural heritage and connotation, which can clearly reflect the differences between the two cultures. Therefore, it is not easy to deliver the meanings of the Chinese idioms with quite national cultural characteristics in English. Before translating idioms, one needs to understand the differences between the two language cultures. When translating, the translator not only should fully consider the strong national style of the idioms and accurately convey the meaning of the original text, but also need to take into account the acceptance of the target-language readers. In this paper, the author will analyze the differences between Chinese and English idioms from the perspective of cultural differences between the two languages. And the author will take the English version of Fortress Besieged as an example to analyze the application of foreignization and domestication in the translation of idioms, in order to provide some insights for idiom translation and promote the dissemination of Chinese culture.

Idioms; Fortress Besieged; Foreignization; Domestication

===Introduction===

With the gradual promotion of China's cultural "going out" strategy and "Belt and Road Initiative", the international community has become more interested in Chinese culture. And the country attaches more importance to cultural communication and exchange with the outside world. The dissemination of literary works has undoubtedly become one of the important bridges for the "going out" of culture. Language and culture are inseparable, and the cultural factors has always been a difficult task in translation due to the great differences between Chinese and Western cultures. As the cream of Chinese language, Chinese idioms have strong cultural characteristics. Authors of Chinese novels often like to quote scriptures and use idioms to convey their feelings and meanings. Therefore, when translating Chinese novels, the translation of idioms becomes a major difficulty. And foreignization and domestication are the fundamental strategies adopted for cultural conversion in translation. Therefore, this thesis analyzes the cultural differences between Chinese and English idioms, and takes the English translation of Fortress Besieged as an example to analyze the application of foreignization and domestication in the translation of idioms.

===Literature review===

Mo Lihong and Ge Lingling (2012) studied the translation of Chinese idioms based on the relevance theory. They believed the theory plays a great role in guiding the translation of idioms. They first explored the theory's revelation to Chinese-English idiom translation, and then analyzed the translation strategies of Chinese idioms according to the theory. There are methods including literal translation, liberal translation method, combination of literal translation and liberal translation, and CorrespondingTranslation.
Sun, Haibo (2013) discussed the translation of English and Chinese idioms from the perspective of cultural differences, and explored how translators use translation strategies in order to better translate idioms from four aspects: cultural traditions, religious differences, myths and legends, and ways of thinking. He argued that the literal translation is possible when there are commonalities between the two languages, while when there are differences between the two languages, translators need to adopt flexible means, and use paraphrasing and liberal translation to get rid of various limitations. Zhang Jingjing (2014) studied the translation strategies of idioms from the perspective of functional equivalence theory, and she believed that the differences in the expressions of English and Chinese idioms are attribute to historical and customary factors. Therefore, the translation strategies of functional equivalence translation theory should be reasonably applied. Wang Qin (2014) also takes Naida's functional equivalence theory as the basis to study the four-character idioms containing color words in the Chinese-English Dictionary. He analyzed the difficulties encountered by translators when translating and exploring the cultural differences between Chinese and English on color, and pointed out the strategies for translating idioms. He argues that translators can only achieve successful translations if they master the cultural differences between Chinese and English. He Yongbin (2016) analyzes the translation of Chinese idioms from the perspective of cross-cultural communication, and the analysis results show that translators use the literal translation and literal translation with annotation more often when translating idioms into English, which are considered to be able to maintain the original ethnical feature and culture of idioms. Because the structure of Chinese idioms is rather special and the sentence length is different from that of English, it is considered that Chinese idioms deserve further research and exploration. Shi Xiaoping (2018) studied the English translation of Chinese idioms from the translator's contextual vision and analyzed five translation techniques used by translators: literal translation, literal translation with notes, liberal translation, amplification and the omission. He argues that certain difficulties arise when translating Chinese idioms into English, and that translators often ignore the historical context of the idioms, resulting in a translation that is not comprehensive enough and easily misleading to readers, so he suggests that translators should enrich their cultural knowledge, improve their communication skills, and master the translation techniques involved when translating at the same time.

===the Translation Strategy of Idioms===
Generally speaking, it is difficult to translate the linguistic structure of Chinese idioms, but only the meaning. And it is especially difficult to translate both the linguistic structure and the meaning. Even when translating the meaning, it is sometimes difficult to balance the original meaning with the meaning that people usually use nowadays, because there is a process of change from the original meaning to the meaning that people usually use nowadays. In translation, the handling of cultural factors has always been a difficult issue, and foreinization and domestication are the fundamental strategies adopted for cultural transformation in translation.

(1)Foreinization and Domestication

Schleiermacher, the German philosopher, stated two methods of translation in one of his speeches in 1813. One is author-to-reader method and the other is reader-to-author method. As the former, the translators try their best to leave the readers in peace, and move the author to them. While the latter means that the translators do their utmost to leave the author in peace and move the readers to him. In his The Translator's Invisibility, Lawrence Venuti, a famous American translation theorist, firstly used the terms of foreinization and domestication. Foreinization could convey the meaning of the source text more accurately and effectively to readers, with representing a kind of link of the linguistic features of the original language (Venuti, 1995:36); or the type of translation in which a TT (target text) is produced which deliberately breaks target conventions by retainning something foreignness of the original (Shuttleworth, 1997:23). Domestication refers to a translation strategy that adheres to the current dominant values of the target language culture and adopts a conservative assimilation of the original text to make it cater to the local canon, publishing trends and political needs (Venuti, 2006:4); or it refers to a translation strategy in which a transparent, fluent style is adopted in order to minimize the strangeness of the foreign text for TL (target language) readers (Shuttleworth, 1997:63). In summary, the foreignization translation strategy requires translators to preserve the linguistic and cultural characteristics of the original text and promote cultural communication for target readers; when adopting domestication strategy, the translator takes the target language culture as his center, and tries to use the expressions of the target language so that target readers should be able to appreciate and understand the translated text in the same way as the original readers do. In translating, absolute domestication and absolute foreignization do not exist. Both of them have their respective advantages and disadvantages, and they are opposites and complementary to each other.

Advantages and disadvantages of Domestication

The biggest advantages of domesticating translation is to enable a good and fluent translation. By a fluent domesticating strategy, the translators can make versions easy to understand for the target language readers. And it is an effective method of intensifying the influence of target language and culture.

However, dominated by this translating strategy, the uniqueness of original language and culture will be missed. For example, Yan Fu (严复) and Lin Shu (林纾) are representatives of the school of domesticating translation. They tended to domesticate foreign works in classical Chinese language. However, with the development of globalization, that kind of over domestication is doing harm to cultural communication between different countries for its distortion of the source language and culture.

Advantagaes and disadvantages of Foreignization

As for its advantages, there are three main points. Firstly, foreignization translation can help readers develop a cross-cultural awareness and acquire different reading experience in other languages and cultures. Secondly, foreignization also can widen readers horizon and promote mutural understanding among different countries. Thirdly, it can also help to combat the cultural hegemonies and enrich the target culture system.

Foreignization has its own limitations. When it comes to some complicated cultural factors, customary, linguistic differences and so on, foreignization translation may produce hard-understood text for taget language readers, which will diminish their interest in the certain text and hinder translation activities.

===The Introduction of Chinese Idioms===
(1)Definition

Chinese idioms are a kind of long-used fixed phrases unique to the ancient Chinese vocabulary. They come from ancient classics or writings, historical stories, people's oral stories, folklore, etc., containing a wealth of cultural information. The meaning of a Chinese idiom is incisive and often implied in the literal meaning. It is generally not a simple addition of the literal meanings of its components. A Chinese idiom’s structure is so tight that it is generally impossible to change the word order arbitrarily, or to swap out, add or subtract components from it. Its form is mostly four-word, but there are also some three-word and multi-word ones.

(2) Basic features

(2.1) Fixed structure
The composition and structure of a Chinese idiom are fixed and cannot be changed, added or subtracted at will. For example, “雪中送炭”(send charcoal in the snow--meaning provide timely help), it cannot be changed into “雪中送煤” (send coal in the snow). Besides, the order of words in an idiom is also fixed and cannot be changed at will. For example, “七手八脚” (seven hands and eight feet—meaning too many cooks spoil the broth). It can't be changed into ”八脚七手“ (eight feet and seven hands). “背井离乡”(leaving hometown) cannot be used as “背乡离井”.

(2.2)Number-fixed words
In a broad sense, Chinese idioms can be composed of three, four, five, six, seven or even more words, such as “闭门羹” (given a cold shoulder), “坐山观虎斗”(watch in safety while others fight,then reap the spoils when both sides are exhausted), “树欲静而风不止”(The tree wants to remain quiet, but the wind won't stop/ Things don’t go their ways), “塞翁失马焉知非福"(a blessing in disguise) and so on. However, the major form of Chinese idioms is a four-character structure.

(2.3) The intergrity of meaning
The meaning of an idiom is holistic in nature. In other words, the meaning of an idiom is not simply the sum of the literal meanings of its components. For example, "胸有成竹" literally means "to have a bamboo in one's chest", but its actual meaning is "to be prepared, to make up one's mind"; “废寝忘食” literally means "forget to eat and sleep", but its actual meaning is "to be extremely dedicated to work".

===The Cultural Difference between Chinese and English idioms===
English and Chinese are both extremely rich in idioms. These idioms greatly enhance the diversity and vividness of the expressive power of English and Chinese, becoming the bright pearls in these two languages. In our observation of English and Chinese idioms, we can easily find that there are many differences between these two idioms, which mainly come from the cultural differences in living environment, social customs, religious beliefs and history and culture between China and Britain.

(1) Differences in Living Environment

Culture cannot be produced without a specific natural geographic environment, and the same is true for idiom culture. China is a continental country with a large area and various terrains, which provide a enabling geographical environment for the development of agricultural civilization. Therefore, there are many Chinese idioms related to "agriculture" and "land", such as “挥金如土”(spend money like water). Britain is located in the British Isles, surrounded by seas, which gave birth to the maritime civilization. Many English idioms are related to "water" and "boat", for example, “挥金如土”(spend money like soil) can be translated as "spend money like water”. Such a translation is in line with the characteristics of maritime civilization.

(2) Differences in social customs

Social customs refer to the way of life of the inhabitants in a region. And they are related to all aspects of social life. For example, the image of animals is different in each nationality. People give different emotions to animals. For example, Chinese people keep dogs, traditionally for the purpose of watching over and protect their homes. British and American people, on the other hand, have dogs for companionship. In English, there is "lucky dog"(幸运儿) to refer to people in a positive sense, while in Chinese, most idioms related to "dog" have a negative meaning, such as “狐朋狗友”(fox friend and dog friend—meaning bad friends) etc..

(3) Differences in Religious Beliefs

Idioms related to religious beliefs also appear in large numbers in English and Chinese languages. Christianity is the dominant religion in British, and Westerners believe in the existence of God. There are many idioms about God in English. For example, "Man proposes, God disposes”. In China, there are many idioms about Buddhism. For example: “不二法门”(the only way to), “借花献佛”(present Buddha with borrowed flowers -- to borrow sthto make a gift of it), etc.

(4) Differences in History and Culture

Historical culture refers to the culture formed in a specific historical development process. One important element of it is historical tales. Historical stories are the treasures of a nation’s history and culture, containing rich historical and cultural information. Chinese idioms are mostly from the Four Books, the Five Classics, myths and legends, such as “东施效颦”(blind imitation with ludicrous effection)、“名落孙山”(fail in a competitive examination/be nowhere) and so on. English idioms are mostly from the Bible, Greek or Roman mythology or Aesop's Fables. For instance, "Achilles' hell”, “a Pandora's box”, etc..

===Case study===

This paper selects the English translation of Fortress Besieged by Jeanne Kelly as the text for analysis. The author is Qian Zhongshu. Through humorous language and pungent satire, the book depicts the decadent, rotten and sickly life of the so-called upper middle class intellectuals in old China during the Opium War. The book's language is humorous, witty, lively, and charming. Qian Zhongshu used idioms flexibly in the book, and sometimes took idioms’ literal meaning as a way of irony.

(1) Foreinization

When adopting the strategy of foreinization, translators need to try to preserve the linguistic characteristics and cultural features of the source language to achieve the purpose of cultural dissemination and communication. When translating, translators strive to convey the Chinese unique culture to the maximum extent while ensuring the accurate communication of information in the source language.

Example 1：艳如桃李，冷若冰霜

Translation：as delectable as peach and plum and as cold as frost and ice

Analysis: “艳如桃李”is a metaphor for a face as delicate as a ripe peach plum; “冷若冰霜” is a metaphor for woman/man as cold as frost and treating people and things without emotion. “冷若冰霜” also refers to a stern and unapproachable attitude. Here the translator kept the four vehicles of "peach and plum" and "frost and ice" under the assurance that target-language readers could understand them.

Example 2：便痛骂《沪报》一顿，把干仗人和假博士的来由用春秋笔法叙述一下，买假文凭是自己的滑稽玩世，认干亲戚是自己的和同随俗。

Translation：Roundly cursing the paper, he briefly recounted, in the manner of the Spring and Autumn Chronicles, the full story behind his having an adoptive father-in-law and a fake doctorate. By purchasing a fake degree he was thumbing his nose at the world, he said; by accepting an adoptive relative, he was confroming to tradition, he argued.

Analysis: “春秋” refered to the ancient chronological history book "Spring and Autumn Annals", which is said to have been compiled by Confucius from the history book "Spring and Autumn" of his home state of Lu. It recorded a total of 242 years of history from the year of 722 BC to the year of 481 BC. “笔法” refered to the method and technique of writing. In the Spring and Autumn Annals, Confucius implied praise and criticism in the text, in which the addition or subtraction of a word had a "subtle meaning", so it was called the "春秋笔法". Later, it refers to the writing technique of short and concise text, which implies positive and negative meanings. The translator has translated “春秋笔法” literally, preserving the characteristics of the Chinese culture.

Example 3: 自信这一席话委婉得体，最后那一段尤其接得天衣无缝，曲尽文书科王主任所谓“顺水推舟”之妙，王主任起的信稿子怕也不过如此。

Translation：He was confident his little speech was tactful and proper, especially the last part, which had been sewn together as flawlessly as “a divine suit of clothes”; it would achieve his objective in every way, what Chief-secretary Wang called as naturally and effortlessly as “pushing a boat downstream.”

Analysis: “天衣无缝” is an idiom that evolved from a fable. The original meaning of “天衣无缝” is that the clothes worn by the gods in the heaven have no seams, but later it is used to describe natural and perfect poetries and writings, or things are well thought out and perfect, with no artificial traces of fabrication; “顺水推舟” means to push the boat according to the direction of the flowing water. It is a metaphor for talking and acting in a certain trend or in a certain way. It is from a famous story "The Injustice to Dou E". The translator has kept both vehicles, preserving the cultural characteristics of the original text to the greatest extent.

(2) Domestication
The translation strategy of domestication focuses on the culture of the target language. It attaches great importance to the authenticity, naturalness and fluency of the translated text so as to enhance the readability of the translation. When translating idioms with complicated cultural background, the translator has to make the target language audience understand the translation with the least possible effort in a short period of time.

Example 4：塞翁失马，安知非福，使三年前结婚，则此番吾家破费不赀矣。

Translation：This may be a blessing in disguise. If you had married three years earlier, this would have cost us a large sum of money.

Analysis: “塞翁失马，安知非福” is a metaphor for a momentary loss, but instead it can be beneficial. It also means that a bad thing can become a good thing under certain conditions, and vice versa. This idiom is derived from the ancient story of "Seung-woong loses his horse". Here, the translator does not explain the story, but adopts a domesticating approach to translate the idiom into the English authentic expression "This may be a blessing in disguise", which makes the translation natural and easily understood.

Example 5：假如苏小姐也不跟他讲话，鸿渐真要觉得自己子虚乌有，向五更鸡啼时的鬼影，或道家“视而不见，抟之不得”的真理了。

Translation：If Miss Su hadn’t bothered to speak to him, Hung-chien would really have felt that he had thinned into nothingness, like a phantom of early dawn upon the cock’s crowing or the Taoist truth, which can be “looked at but not seen, expounded but not grasped.”

Analysis: “子虚乌有” is an idiom derived from a historical story, and it was first taken from "The Composition Of Zixu" by Sima Xiangru in the Han Dynasty. 子虚(Zi Xu) and 乌有(Wu You) are both fictional characters in The Composition Of Zixu of Sima Xiangru in the Han Dynasty, so “子虚乌有” is used to indicate something that is hypothetical rather than real. It refers to something hypothetical, non-existent, or untrue. The translator takes the target language readers as the center, and adopts the translation method of paraphrasing, translating it as "thin into nothingness", which accurately conveys the meaning of the original text.

Example 6：这时候他知道鸿渐跟自己河水不犯井水，态度轻松了许多，嗓子已恢复平日的响朗。

Translation：Now that he realized he and Hung-chien were not in each other’s way, his attitude toward Hung-chien changed considerably, and his voice recovered its usual resonance.

Analysis: “河水不犯井水” is a metaphor for both sides not to interfere or infringe on each other. The metaphorical meaning of the idiom is very vivid, but here the translator gives up the metaphorical meaning of the original text and chooses the authentic English expression
“were not in each other’s way”, so that the target language readers can quickly understand the original text.

===Conclusion===

Chinese idioms are rich in connotation and diverse in form. And they have a deep cultural heritage. When translating such words, translators need to carefully analyze the original text and determine their deeper meanings according to the context, in an effort to meet the expectations of the readers of the translated text. This paper introduces the definition and features of Chinese idioms, explores the cultural differences between English and Chinese idioms, and analyzes the English translation of Fortress Besieged; from the perspectives of foreignization and domestication. Through the above analysis, it can be seen that the translator does not limit himself to one translation strategy, but flexibly adopts both foreignization and domestication strategies. When translating Chinese idioms with more complex cultural connotations, the translators prefer to adopt the domesticating translation strategy to translate the implied meaning of the idioms according to the context or to find authentic expressions in the target language to replace them, out of the pursuit of fluency and the acceptability of the target language readers. When translating idioms with less complex cultural connotations, translators prefer to adopt the strategy of foreignizing translation, which preserves the original metaphors and also helps to spread Chinese culture. No matter which strategy is used, translators should pay attention to avoid using words with strong national cultural connotation, which will make it difficult for readers of other different nationalities to read and understand the meaning and emotion that the author of the text wants to express.

<center>'''Analysis on Localized Translation of English Games Based on Skopos Theory
--Taking League of legends as an Example'''</center>

<center>Liu Chang</center>

===Abstract===
At present, with the vigorous development of information technology, basing on information technology and internet platform, online games gradually get rid of the name of electronic heroin, and gradually industrialize and systematize. It can be seen that e-sports has now become a relatively mature industry, but the problem is that most online games on the market are imported from abroad. Therefore, one of the inevitable problems in the introduction process is the localization of the game. Language, as an important carrier of information transmission, plays an indispensable role in game localization. Not like the traditional text, the translation of game text pays more attention to the main position of the reader and its adaptability in the target market. Taking the game League of Legends as an example, this paper explores how to better combine the game with Chinese culture in the form of language from the perspective of Skopos Theory of Translation, so as to make Chinese players accept the games better and more likely to be infiltrated by traditional Chinese culture during the process of enjoying the game.
In this thesis, the author analyses the textual material of League of Legends from the perspective of Skopos Theory. Through the analysis of the lines, titles and names of the champions of this game. The author finds that the translators of the game mostly take the domestication strategy, and use several translation methods such as transliteration, amplification, free translation and so on to achieve their goal: making this game more acceptable for Chinese player and helping the Chinese players have a better game experience. However, during the process of analysis, the author analyzes the mistranslation and corrects the translation based on Skopos Theory. After the analysis of the material, it can be seen that with the guidance of Skopos Theory, translators can have specific rules to obey in order to achieve the goal and come out good translation. However, the related research in china is still very few, so the scholars should pay more attention to this field and make it a systematic discipline.

===Key words===
Skopos Theory; Game Translation; League of Legends

===Introduction===
(1)Research Background

With the increase of the power of consumption of Chinese consumers, the game market of China is also thriving now. According to the statistics, China now is the largest game market in the world, with the number of game player more than 600,000,000 (Dai Jie:2019,100-101). However, since most e-sports games in China are introduced from abroad, localized translation is very important. Currently, all large-scale e-sports games have specialized localized translation teams (Liu Chang & Yang Weixiu:2019,30-32). Their job is to translate the foreign games into Chinese in the way that can meet the need of Chinese player. During this process, the translators face a lot of difficulties, so they have to do the job with the instruction of various kinds of translation theories. In this thesis, the author takes the online game League of Legends, which is hot all around the world, as an example, and analyzes the translation of names and lines of the characters in the game based on the Skopos theory of Translation put forward by Hans Vermeer to discuss the principles of the Skopos theory showed or missed in the textual material.

(2)Brief Introduction to League of Legends

League of Legends (LOL) is developed by the United States game company Riot and operated by Tencent game. It is a MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) game (Cai Qiqi & Huang Yanjie:2018,84-88). In the game, the player takes on the role of a summoner and chooses your trusted allies to enter the Summoner’s Valley to battle with your enemies, fighting for the justice of Varoran. There is only one rule: Victory is everything!
In the eyes of the game players and game developers, LOL is not just a game, but a fantasy world with a complete and huge world view. Every champion (the character manipulated by the players) possesses his or her own name, title, background story, lines and so on, which does not only enrich the content of the game, but also put forward a lot of challenges for the translators, for all of these names, titles and lines are the textual material which needs to be translated.

(3)Purpose and Significance of Game Translation

As foreign games have thrived in Chinese market, the paradox between fast development and a relative shortage of research about game translation has become apparent. In the process of the translation of the material of the game, the quality of translation has a great influence on the player's game experience, which is very important. However, domestic research on game translation is still in its infancy, and relevant scholars and translators may face the embarrassing situation that there is no theoretical knowledge as reference. Therefore, the research on game translation is a must-to-do and has certain practical significance. This thesis discusses how to better combine the game with Chinese culture in the form of language from the perspective of Skopos Theory of Translation, so as to make Chinese players accept the games better and more likely to be infiltrated by traditional Chinese culture during the process of enjoying the game.

===Literature Review===
(1) Review on Research of Skopos Theory of Translation

Foreign studies on functional translation start very early. Andrew Chesterman collects famous articles by Vermeer and Nord in Readings in Translation Theory (1989). Jeremy Munday introduces the main connotation of functional Translation theory in Introduced Translation Studies, and he believes that the functional translation school and communicative translation theory born in Germany promoted the innovation of translation theory, turning it from a static linguistic category into a cross-cultural communication behavior (2001,73-80). In Contemporary Translation Theories (2nd Revised Edition), according to Edwin Gentzler, the birth of the functional school of translation theory is an important moment in the history of translation theory. It puts an end to the two-thousands-long struggle between faithfulness and freedom in translation circles. According to functional translation theory, both faithful and free translation can be regarded as the correct choice as long as it conforms to the communicative purpose of the target text (2001,71). But at the same time, there are also some scholars have a skeptical or even negative attitude towards the functional Skopos theory. Peter Newmark, a famous translation theorist, thinks that functional translation theory was “dogmatism”. He comments in his book that “translation is a fractured discipline, and it is especially inappropriate to use a single integrated theory, dogma or general expression covering any text type. In this kind of process and practice, one must consider many issues at the same time... there is not any well-considered theory can cover all translation problems (1990,105).”
There are four stages of the development of the Skopos Theory of Translation:
The first stage: Katharina Reiss introduces the functional category into translation criticism for the first time (1999). The second stage: Hans Vermeer proposes Skopos Theory, which frees translation studies from the bondage of textual centralism (1987). The third stage: Justa Holz Manttari, proposes the theory of translation behavior. The fourth stage: Christiane Nord comprehensively summarizes and improves the functionalism theory (1991,30-32). He has proposed that translators should follow the guiding principle of “function plus loyalty”, and then perfected the theory (1996).

(2)Review on the Research of Game Translation

With the rapid expansion of the video game industry, there have been more and more researches on game translation in recent years. Trainor introduced game translation from two aspects of game content and text (2003,14). Yan Mingle analyzes the translation process in the process of the localization of games, and summarized some characteristics (2009).
Xiao Zhiyan believes that as a kind of cross-cultural communication behavior, the name of game has a very strong purpose, and it bears the task of spreading the game information and facilitating the purchase in the cultural environment of the target language (2011).

(3)Summary

The development of the Skopos theory of translation now is already very mature now, however, the domestic research about game translation is still on its preliminary stage now. So translators and scholars should do the research of game translation based on the mature theory and make it the guidance of the practical translation. Only with the help of developed theory, translators are able to make the research of the game translation more systematical and standardized.

===Methods and Theories===
(1)An Introduction to Skopos Theory

Skopos Theory, which is developed by German linguist Vermeer, is the core of functional translation theory. It breaks through the bondage of equivalent translation theory centered on original text.
Vermeer believes that “translation is a human behavior”, and “any behavior has a purpose”, so “translation is a purposeful behavior”, thus translation is “a discourse produced for a certain purpose and target audience in certain situation of the target language” (1996).
Vermeer believes that translation should follow the skopos rule, the coherence rule and the fidelity rule, among which the skopos rule is the supreme principle. Vermeer completely breaks out of the equivalence theory of the textual center and focuses on the function of the text. In his opinion, translation strategies and methods must be flexible, and the translation should be carried out according to the situation and the purpose of the text, so as to realize the function and purpose of the text.

(2)Basic Rules of Skopos Theory

(2.1)The Skopos Rule

In the system of the Skopos theory of translation, the Skopos rule is the primary principle guiding all translations, which usually refers to the communicative purpose of the translation. That is to say, Skopos rule is the primary principle of Skopos theory. Because all texts are inevitably created with a certain purpose and ultimately to achieve this purpose, so the means to achieve the purpose should be determined by the purpose (Nord,1997,15).

(2.2)The Coherence Rule

Coherence rule refers to intralingual coherence, which means that the target text audience should be able to understand the content of the target text according to the context set by the translator.

(2.3)The Fidelity Rule

The fidelity rule refers to interlingual coherence, which reflects the relationship between the original text and the target text. It emphasizes that the content of the target text should be faithful to the content of the original text, but the degree and form of such fidelity depend on the translator's understanding of the original text and the specific requirements of the translation purpose.

(3)Summary

After understanding the basic meaning of the three rules of the Skopos Theory of translation, it can be found that in this theory, the most innovative point is the first and primary rule——the Skopos rule. It is the core of this theory and also it serves as the basic norm during the process of translation if someone is going to translate something based on the Skopos Theory. And the rest of the rules make up the void of the theory and improve the quality of the product to some extent.

===Translation Under Skopos Theory===
(1)Translation Under Skopos Rule

LOL is developed by western game company, so the original content is based on the combination of western culture and the fictional world. However, in the Chinese version, the Skopos rule has been precisely followed and many Chinese features and elements are added in the content in order to cater to the expectations and tastes of Chinese players (Zhang Yiyang:2016). During the process of the translation of the material, the translators mostly use the translation strategy of domestication and several translation methods such as transliteration, free translation, and so on, to achieve their goals.

Example 1:

Original version: Xayah, Rakan

Chinese version：霞、洛

In the background story of the game, “Xayah” and “Rakan” are both from Vastaya, where lives the half-bird, half-human creature. And they are enviable couple that can never be divided. According to this background information, here is the Chinese version “霞” and “洛”. The names are originated from a famous Chinese quatrains: A Tribute to King Teng’s Tower. In this quatrains, the author Wang Bo uses “落霞与孤鹜齐飞，秋水共长天一色” to describe the beautiful scenery of the sky (Tang Jiawen:2019, 127-129). So it can be found that this quatrain is suitable for the translation of “Xayah” and “Rakan”. There are three reasons. The first one is that in the quatrain, “落霞” and “孤鹜” together form a harmonious scenery and they seem to unite as one, also “Rakan” and “Xayah” are intimate lovers which is also a harmonious images. In this way, it can be considered as a kind of domestication. The second reason is that “Xayah” and “Rakan” are both half-bird creature, which correspond to “与孤鹜齐飞” in the quatrain. They are half-bird, so they can fly. The third reason is that the pronunciations of “Xayah” and “Rakan” are similar to the Chinese words “霞” and “洛”. In this way, the translator uses transliteration to achieve his goal. From three perspectives, the author thinks that the translation of this textual material is accord with the Skopos rule, for the translation does not only convey the information of the original text, but also meet the need and expectations of Chinese players.

Example 2

Original version: Here’s a tip and a spear behind.

Chinese version: 一点寒芒先到，随后枪出如龙。

In this case, it is the lines of a champion named Zhao Xin in the game. Zhao Xin is a loyal warrior with a spear as his weapon. His prototype is the famous military officer in the three kingdoms period, Zhao Yun. So during the process of translation, the translator also takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods of free translation and amplification to cater to the taste of Chinese player. In this sentence, “先到” and “如龙” are both amplification to make the sentence more neat and orderly in Chinese. Also the translator uses free translation to make the sentence more readable in Chinese. In this way, the translator achieves the goal of making the translation more acceptable for Chinese player.

(2)Translation Under Coherence Rule

The coherence rule means that there must be intra-textual coherence in the translation, that is to say, the target text should be readable and acceptable. It enables the recipient to understand and make sense in the culture of the target language and the communicative context in which the target text is used. Thus, the Chinese player usually make some nicknames for the champions in the game (champion is the character manipulated by the player in the game) to make it easy to read and accept for Chinese player (Gong Lei:2018). During the process of translation, the translator mostly takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods such as free translation, literal translation and so on.

Example 1:

Original version: the outlaw

Chinese version: 法外狂徒

Nick name: 男枪

The outlaw is the title of a male champion named Graves in the game (every champion own his title in the game, which is considered as another name of the champion)， he is a criminal with a big rifle. In Chinese version , official translators translate the title of Graves, the outlaw, into “法外狂徒” literally. However, for the sake of convenience, the Chinese players further simplify it into “男枪”, which means the man with a rifle. In this case, the players can also be considered as the translators, they just combinate the image of this champion and his gender, and use literal translation to get a nick name for this champion. In this way, the name of this champion is more easily to read and widely accepted by Chinese player.
Example 2:

Original version: The Deceiver

Chinese version: 诡术妖姬

In the background story of the game, Leblanc is a beautiful lady and she is a great magician who likes to cheat other by her tricks, so she gets his title “The Deceiver”. In this case, the translator does not translate “The Deceiver” into “欺骗者” or “骗子” literally. Instead, the translator translates it into “诡术妖姬” in the way of free translation and amplification, which combinates the features and gender of this champion. In this way, “诡术妖姬”, obviously, is a better choice than “骗子” or “欺骗者”. Also, for Chinese, the title of four characters is usually more readable.

(3)Translation Under Fidelity Rule

The fidelity rule means that there must be inter-coherence between source text and target text, which is equal to the principle of faithfulness in other translation theories, that is to say, the translation must ground on the information given by the source text. Thus, during the process of translating the game, the translator uses various strategies to translate certain terms (Xin Yue: 2019). During the process of translation, the translator mostly takes the domestication strategy and uses the translation methods such as free translation, literal translation and so on.

Example 1:

Original version: Monkey King

Chinese version: 齐天大圣

In this example, the title of Monkey king belongs to the champion named Wu Kong, whose prototype is the monkey in the ancient Chinese novel, The Journey to the West. However, the translator does not just translate monkey king into “猴子王” literally, but translate it into “齐天大圣”, which conforms to the source text. Because almost all the Chinese know the story of Wu Kong and his title “齐天大圣”. In this way, based on the translation strategy of domestication and the translation method of free translation, the translator makes it more corresponding to the original text. So the author considers this version as a successful translation which obeys the fidelity rule.

Example 2:

Original version: The fist of Shadow

Chinese version: 暗影之拳

In this case, the translator just uses the literal translation to translate the title, also there is
one point has to be mentioned. During the translation of the material, the translator uses literal translation in many places as long as there is correspondence between English and Chinese in that material. In this way, the translation obeys the fidelity rule.

===Mistranslation in League of Legends===
During the process of translating the material, though most of the translation is in accord with the Skopos theory. However, the author also finds there are some mistranslation from the perspective of Skopos theory.

(1)Mistranslation Against Skopos Rule

In the process of translation, it is inevitable to meet some material which is difficult to translate in the way conforming to the Skopos rule.

Example 1:

Original version: Minotaur

Chinese version：牛头酋长

In this example, originally, Minotaur is the monster with human’s body and the head of cow in Greek myth, however, in the Chinese version, the translators simply translate it into “牛头酋长”, which means the chieftain of cow. In this way, it violates the Skopos rule. Because according to the Skopos rule of the Skopos theory, the translator to translate the original text into the target language in a way that suits his purpose. In the process of translation of games, the purpose is to make the gamers experience the game in a more immersing way. That is to say, translators should take Chinese culture into consideration during the process of translation. However, the word “酋长” is rarely used in Chinese. So in this case, maybe “牛魔王” is a better choice. The first reason is that it has the same image with the champion in the game. The second reason is that Chinese players are familiar to this name.

Example 2:

Original version：The Lady of Clockwork

Chinese version: 发条魔灵

In this case, the author thinks the Chinese version is a kind of overtranslation, for here the translator translates “lady” into “魔灵”. However, “魔灵” is a word of western style and not usually seen in Chinese. In Chinese, the word “魂” usually be used to express the meaning of “灵”. Also, the translation does not show the gender of this champion. So here the author thinks “发条魔姬” may be a better version. In this version, both literal translation and amplification are used. “姬” is a Chinese style word which is equal to lady. In this way, it can be more easily accept by the Chinese players. And “魔” can show the essence of the champion.

(2)Mistranslation Against Coherence Rule

During the process of translating the game, the translators sometimes have to violate the coherence rule in order to cater to the Skopos rule or the fidelity rule.

Example 1:

Original version: The might of Demacia

Chinese version: 德玛西亚之力

In this case, the translator translates “The Might of Demacia” (Demacia is a city-state in the game) into “德玛西亚之力” in Chinese. That is a kind of literal translation, however, few names of place are longer than three words. “德玛西亚” may not be easy to read and accept by Chinese players. In this way, it violates the coherence rule. As a result of it, the players usually call it “德玛” for short. And there is a good example for the translation of the name of place. In this case, the city Piltover is called “皮城” in Chinese. Also, there is a title of a champion called The Seneschal of Demacia. Its Chinese version is “德邦总管”. According to these two example, it can be known that in the translation of the name of some place, the translator may take the initial as the first character of Chinese version, then use a word which is equal to the meaning of “city”, such as “城”、“邦”. It is a kind of free translation. In this case of “The Might of Demacia”, the authors takes “德邦” from the case of “德邦总管” and translate it into “德邦之力”. In this way, it is easier for the players to read and accept.

Example 2:

Original version: The Defender of Tomorrow

Chinese version: 未来守护者

In this case, the translator translates the defender of tomorrow into “未来守护者”. apparently, here the translator extends “tomorrow” to “future”. The author thinks here the translator does a great job and comprehends the champion in a good way. It is an indication of amplification and free translation. Because it is universally known that tomorrow can be comprehended as future. But the problem is that, usually, the Chinese titles of the champions in this game are made of four characters. Because it is more easily for Chinese player to read. So in this case, “未来” can be retained, it is a good free translation, but “守护者” should be changed into “守卫”, there is a title of four characters ,which is more readable for Chinese players. In this way, it is in accord with the coherence rule.

(3)Mistranslation Against Fidelity Rule

During the process of translating the game, the translators may have to violate the fidelity rule in order to obey the other two rules.

Example 1:

Original version: The Rabble Rouser

Chinese version: 酒桶

In this case, originally, the Rabble Rouser means the person who instigates the masses, however, in Chinese version, it is simply translated into “酒桶”, which means the man with a wine bucket, for the image of this champion in the game is a man with a wine bucket. But according to the background story of this champion, he is a reckless and impetuous drunker. So the author thinks the Chinese version does not obey the fidelity rule. It does not follow the original meaning of its English version. In this case, the author thinks “肇事酒徒” may be a better translation for the title of this champion. It does not only conform to the background story of this champion, but also fit his image.

Example 2:

Original version: The Hexplosive Expert

Chinese version: 爆破鬼才

In this case, the translator uses omission to translate this title, in this way it seems to be more readable for Chinese players. However, the translator dose not obey the fidelity rule here, because the translator just takes the word “Hexplosive” as “explosive”. Actually, “Explosive” is derived from Hex, which is a top science study in League of Legends, and the champion uses the “Hextech Engine” when making bombs, he is named after this. So the author thinks that the title should be translated in a literal way to obey the meaning of the original text. So the author’s version is “海克斯爆破专家”.

(3)Summary
After analyzing the translation of the textual material of the game, it can be found that there are some places violating the Skopos Theory, but they are just a part of the translation of the whole game. One thing have to be admitted: there are many excellent translation in the game that cater to the taste of expectations of Chinese player. Also this is primary rule of Skopos theory.

===Conclusion===
Video game, known as the ninth art, is a booming and potential industry. As China's opening up and the e-sports industry thriving, the game market of China is expected to expand dramatically, but the demand for high-quality games also increases. As an crucial medium for domestic players to have better game experience, the quality of game translation has a direct influence on the players’ game experience (Qiao Dan:2020). However, because of the development of online games, traditional ways of game translation is not able to meet the requirements of players now. Skopos Theory focuses on the communicative purpose of translation, which offers a theoretical basis for the translator to use various ways to achieve the goals. The translator of the game should firstly figure out the role of the original text in the original context, then analyze the requirements and acceptance ability of the target recipients, and finally reproduce the meaning of the original text smoothly with words in line with the game style.
In this thesis, the author analyzes the textual materials of lol from the prospect of Skopos theory. Through the analysis of the lines, titles and names of the champions of this game. The author finds that the translators of the game mostly take the domestication strategy, and use several translation methods such as transliteration, amplification, free translation and so on to achieve their goal—making this game more acceptable for Chinese players and helping the Chinese players have a better game experience. However, during the process of analysis, the author also finds that there are many mistranslation from the point view of Skopos theory. So the author analyzes the mistranslation and corrects the translation based on Skopos theory. After the analysis of the material, it can be seen that with the guidance of Skopos theory, translators can have specific rules to obey in order to achieve the goal and come out good translation. However, the related research in China is still very few, so the scholars should pay more attention to this field and make it a systematic discipline.

'''The Transmission of Chinese Folk Art'''
===Abstract===
===Key words===
===Introduction===
There is no superior culture, but there are strong and weak ones. According to Toury's multiple systems theory, Chinese culture is relatively weak compared with British and American culture. Chinese literature has been marginalized in the world literature system for a long time, so when entering the field of English literature, it is usually dominated in the field of English literature. In the past few decades, the translation of contemporary Chinese literature to the English world has not been very successful. Readers in the English-speaking world object to translated literature from any culture, and it is very difficult for translated literature to enter the English world. Although there were two large-scale translation and introduction activities of Panda Series and Great China Library with a lot of material and human resources invested, but the result was not ideal. Although Dragon Raja, as an online literature, can not represent Chinese culture, its exciting plot and low barrier of readers would make it a good guide in achieving the "go global" strategy.
Both Harry Potter and Dragon Raja are a series of fantasy novels that have achieved great success, and both their main characters Harry Potter, Lu Mingfei and their storyline shares many similarities. One is popular across the world, and one is popular in China. So when translating Dragon Raja into English, we can learn many useful words, expressions and sentence patterns from Harry Potter.===Subtitle1===
===Similarities===
2.1 A Special Academy
There is a special academy in both Harry Potter and Dragon, the Hogwarts College in Harry Potter and Kassel College in Dragon Raja, which are places where the main characters learn corresponding knowledge. Both colleges are extremely special. Hogwarts is about magic, kassel is about dragons, and both colleges are different from real universities. Neither college is known to the general public, and both have some mysteries.

In "Harry Potter" the headmaster of Hogwarts Dumbledore is a very powerful wizard, numerous honors, proficient in all kinds of high order magic, and is also the backbone of Hogwarts and even the whole magic community. In The Dragon Clan, The principal of Kassel Academy, Anger, is also a powerful dragon slayer. Kassel Academy, with Anger as its seat, has a great say in the mixed-race society. Both headmasters act as guides for the main characters in their respective works. Dumbledore loves Harry very much, while Angers loves Lummingfield even more than his pocketknife.

Both works depict a grand worldview that is different from the real world. Harry Potter describes an imaginary magical world in which all sorts of magical things are fascinating. Dragons also portrays the magical world of the dragon clan, attracting many fans with its whimsical ideas about various characters and historical events.

Neither Harry nor Lu Mingfei, who played the leading role in "Harry Potter" nor "Dragon", was the best in the academy. In Harry Potter, Harry is not good either in actual combat ability or in school, while Lu Mingfei is a famous diaos in Dragon clan. But they both have extraordinary fates, Harry is the chosen one, and Lumingfei is also the key to ending the history of the dragon race.

In both books, there is a special race that has special abilities that ordinary people do not have. Magic in Harry Potter and speech and Spirit in Dragons are both powerful special abilities. Those who possess these special abilities are divided between wizards and hybrids. Wizards and hybrids are difficult groups for ordinary people to reach, and they don't want them to.

Before entering the academy, both Lumingfield and Harry stayed in their uncle's house, and neither of them was very popular. Both grew up in very similar environments, with few friends and often being bullied. Both men met their best friends after attending special schools. Harry meets Hermione and Ron on the train to Hogwarts, and Lummingfield meets Fingal at the station.
===Application===
Since the two novels share many similarities, when translating Dragon Raja, we can learn some useful words, expressions from Harry Potter.

1.The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley and in their opinion there was no finer boy anywhere.
德思礼夫妇有一个小儿子，名叫达力。在他们看来，人世间没有比达力更好的孩子了。
婶婶觉得路鸣泽聪明，好读书，求上进，还特热爱文学，路鸣泽看《小说绘》在婶婶的嘴里也是“我们家鸣泽在学习”。
In Mrs. Lu’s opinion, her son Lu Mingze was smart and diligent with enthusiasm in literature. Even when Lu Mingze read Fiction and Draw, she thought he was doing some serious work.

Might this not all be some huge joke that the Dursleys had cooked up? If Harry hadn’t known that the Dursleys had no sense of humor, he might have thought so...
这也许是杜斯礼一家搞的恶作剧？

也许“夕阳的刻痕”的真实身份给路鸣泽发觉了？路鸣泽想办法报复他玩呢？
Might this not all be some huge prank that Lu Mingze cooked up since he found out about the secret of “sunset”?
When receiving the letter from their respective special college, Harry and Lu Mingfei both showed confusion and doubt.

'''The Transmission of Chinese Folk Art'''
===Abstract===
===Key words===
===Introduction===
China has a long history and culture of the Chinese nation for five thousand years, resulting in a lot of folk art. They are rich and colorful, diverse in content, with a strong nationalist color, thus demonstrating the long history and profound culture of our Chinese folk art. However, with the rise of the era of large-scale industrialization, a lot of mechanized production has replaced the original manual production, and some traditional production techniques and traditional artistic creation have been gradually lost. How to protect the inheritance of Chinese folk art is a problem that we will think about. Today, in the new era, how to protect the development of Chinese folk art is an important link in the sustainable development of Chinese traditional art. China is a multi-ethnic country, and each nation has its own cultural characteristics and cultural characteristics. National culture needs time baptism and historical development, so thousands of years of history and culture is very precious. We should not only pay attention to the protection of traditional folk art. Moreover, we should carry forward and inherit our folk art and culture. We should get more people to know them.

因又笑说道：“几年间，门子也会钻了，由知府推升转了御史，不过几年，升了吏部侍郎，署兵部尚书。为着一件事降了三级。如今又要升了。”冯紫英道：“人世的荣枯，仕途的得失，终属难定。”贾政道：“像雨村算便宜的了。还有我们差不多的人家，就是甄家，从前一样功勋，一样的世袭，一样的起居，我们也是时常往来。不多几年，他们进京来，差人到我这里请安，狠还热闹。一回儿抄了原籍的家财，至今杳无音信。不知他近况若何，心下也着实惦记，看了这样，你想做官的怕不怕？”贾赦道：“咱们家是最没有事的。”

Master Merchant continued, “During several years of being an official, he has grown to be good at dealing with influential officials. So he was promoted from a magistrate to the Censor. It never stops here. It only took a few years for him to be promoted to Vice President of the Board of the Civil Office and the deputy of Minister of War. Now another promotion is falling on him after a three-rank demotion due to an accident.” “The rise and fall of one’s fate and the gain and loss of one’s official career are unpredictable,” Feng Ziying commented. “Rain Village can be said to be let off lightly anyway. Take Family Potterymaker for example. This family was once illustrious as our family in terms of meritorious deeds, hereditary titles and living in clover. We had kept close contact. A few years ago, when they came into the capital, they asked some families to greet me. Such a busy scenery. But a wave led to the whole family’s being searched all over the house and its property being confiscated, with the family members disappearing without a trace. The latest news about them I fail to get, and the real concern my mind deals with. From this family, you can see whoever will be anxious with his official career and fate,” said Master Merchant. “Our family is the last to worry about this misfortune,” Pardon Merchant didn’t care.

冯紫英道：“果然尊府是不怕的：一则里头有贵妃照应；二则故旧好，亲戚多；三则你家自老太太起，至于少爷们，没有一个刁钻刻薄的。”贾政道：“虽无刁钻刻薄，却没有德行才情。白白的衣租食税，那里当得起？”贾赦道：“咱们不用说这些话，大家吃酒罢。”大家又喝了几杯，摆上饭来。吃毕喝茶。冯家的小厮走来，轻轻的向紫英说了一句。冯紫英便要告辞了。贾赦贾政道：“你说什么？”小厮道：“外面下雪，早已下了梆子了。”贾政叫人看时，已是雪深一寸多了。贾政道：“那两件东西，你收拾好了么？”

“Of course, your honourable family has nothing to fear,” Purple-hero Feng assured him. “You have Her Highness in the imperial palace to care for you, and a pool of old friends and kinsmen. Besides, none of your family from the old lady down to your young masters is acrimonious or mean.” “That may be so,” said Master Merchant. “But they have no virtue or ability either. How long can they support themselves?”“Don’t talk that,” protested Pardon Merchant. “Let’s have some more drinks.” They drank a few more cups, then rice was served. After they had finished the meal and drunk some tea, Feng’s footman came over to whisper something to him, and he asked permission to leave. Pardon Merchant asked the footman what he had said. “It’s snowing outside, sir, and the first watch has sounded.”The footman answered.

冯紫英道：“收好了。若尊府要用，价钱还自然让些。”贾政道：“我留神就是了。”冯紫英道：“我再听信罢。天气冷，请罢，别送了。”贾赦贾政便命贾琏送了出去。却说冯紫英去后，贾政叫门上的人来吩咐道：“今儿临安伯那里来请吃酒，知道是什么事？”门上的人道：“奴才曾问过，并没有什么喜庆事，不过南安王府里到了一班小戏子，都说是个名班，伯爷高兴，唱两天戏，请相好的老爷们瞧瞧，热闹热闹。大约不用送礼的。”说着，贾赦过来问道：“明儿二老爷去不去？”贾政道：“承他亲热，怎么好不去的？”

“Yes,if your honourable family has any use for them, of course we can negotiate the price.” said Feng. “I’ll keep it in mind.”said Master Merchant.“I’ll wait to hear from you. It’s cold,so please stay here.”Master Merchant and Master Merchant told Romance Merchant to see him out. After he had gone, Master Merchant summoned the gateman.“Today the Duke of Lin'an sent invitations to a banquet.Do you know what the occasion is?”he asked.“I asked, sir,” replied the gateman. “It’s no special celebration, but a company of young actors — a company with a fine reputation has come to the Prince of Nanan’s Mansion; And the duke is so pleased with them that he’s putting on two days’ performances for his friends’ enjoyment. It should be very lively. There’s probably no need to send gifts.”Pardon Merchant came over at this point to ask Master Merchant if he would be going the next day.“I think we’d be better to show our appreciation.”Master Merchant replied.

说着，门上进来回道：“衙门里书办来请老爷明日上衙门。有堂派的事，必得早些去。”贾政道：“知道了。”说着，只见两个管屯里地租子的家人走来，请了安，磕了头，旁边站着。贾政道：“你们是郝家庄的？”两个答应了一声。贾政也不往下问，竟与贾赦各自说了一回话儿散了。家人等秉着手灯，送过贾赦去。这里贾琏便叫那管租的人道：“说你的。”那人说道：“十月里的租子，奴才已经赶上来了。原是明儿可到。谁知京外拿车，把车上的东西，不由分说，都掀在地下。奴才告诉他，说是府里收租子的车，不是买卖车，他更不管这些。

Just then the gateman came back to report, “The secretary from your yamen has come to ask you to go there tomorrow, sir, as the minister has some business and will need you earlier than usual.” “Very well.” Then two of the family’s bailiffs came in and paid their respects. After kowtowing they stood there at attention. “Are you two from Hao Village?” Master Merchant asked. “Yes, sir.” Instead of inquiring their business, he chatted with Pardon Merchant She till the latter rose to go and was escorted home by servants with lanterns. Romance Merchant then asked the bailiffs, “Well, what have you come for?” “We collected the rent in kind for the tenth month,” they reported. “It should have arrived here tomorrow, but outside the city our carts were commandeered and, when we protested, all the things on them were dumped on the ground. We told them these weren’t merchants’ carts but were delivering rent to your mansions. Still they paid no attention.

奴才叫车夫只管拉着走，几个衙役就把车夫混打了一顿，硬扯了两辆车去了。奴才所以先来回报。求爷打发个人到衙门里去要了来才好。再者，也整治整治这些无法无天的差役才好。爷还不知道呢，更可怜的是那买卖车，客商的东西全不顾，掀下来，赶着就走。那些赶车的但说句话，打的头破血出的。”贾琏听了，骂道：“这个还了得！”立刻写了一个帖儿，叫家人：“拿去向拿车的衙门里要车去，并车上东西。若少了一件，是不依的！快叫周瑞。”周瑞不在家。又叫旺儿。旺儿晌午出去了，还没有回来。贾琏道：“这些忘八羔子，一个都不在家！他们终年家吃粮不管事。”

The slave told the coachman to pull it away, but some government soldiers beat up the coachman and drove off with two carts. The minion returns the favor first. Please send someone to the Yamen for it. Moreover, it is good to punish these lawless servants. Ye still don't know, more pitiful is that the business car, the merchant's things all disregard, lift down, hurried away. Those who drive the wagons say nothing and bleed from the head." Romance Merchant, hearing this, cursed: "This is remarkable!" Immediately she wrote a post, telling her family: "Go to the government office where the cart is taken and ask for the cart and its contents. If one is missing, it will not depend on! Call Zhou Rui quickly." Zhou Rui is not at home. Also known as Wanger. Prosperous went out at noon and did not return. Romance Merchant said, "None of these forgetful kids are at home! They don't care what they eat all year round."

因吩咐小厮们：“快给我找去。”说着，也回到自己屋里，睡下不提。且说临安伯第二天又打发人来请。贾政告诉贾赦道：“我是衙门里有事。琏儿要在家等候拿车的事情，也不能去。倒是大老爷带宝玉应酬一天也罢了了。”贾赦点头道：“也使得。”贾政遣人去叫宝玉，说“今儿跟大爷到临安伯那里听戏去。”宝玉喜欢的了不得，便换上衣服，带了焙茗、扫红、锄药三个小子，出来见了贾赦，请了安，上了车，来到临安伯府里。门上人回进去，一会子出来说：“老爷请。”

Shouting to his pages to find them both at once, Romance Merchant retired to his apartment for the night. Next morning brought a reminder from the Earl of Linan. ‘I shall be busy at the Ministry,’ said Master Merchant to his brother. ‘And Romance will have to stay here to sort out this trouble with the rent-wagons. You had better take Precious Jade with you for the day.’ Pardon Merchant nodded. ‘Very well.’ Master Merchant sent word to Precious Jade that he was to accompany his uncle to the Earl of Lin-an’s theatre party. Precious Jade was thrilled. He changed, and choosing three of his pages, Tealeaf, Sweep Red and Ploughboy, to go with him, came out to pay his morning respects to Jia She. They climbed into their carriages and were soon at the Earl’s palace. A gateman went in to announce their arrival and returned after a brief interval to escort them in. Pardon Merchant led Precious Jade into the main courtyard, which was packed with a noisy throng. They paid their respects to the Earl and exchanged civilities with the other guests before sitting down and joining in the flow of light-hearted conversation. Before long the manager of the troupe came forward with two playbills, an ordinary one and a fancy one in the form of an ivory tablet, and saluting his patrons by dropping one knee to the ground in Manchu-style, announced: ‘Will the gentlemen please select their favourite plays?’

于是贾赦带着宝玉走入院内，只见宾客喧阗。贾赦宝玉见了临安伯，又与众宾客都见过了礼，大家坐着，说笑了一回。只见一个掌班的拿着一本戏单，一个牙笏，向上打了一个千儿，说道：“求各位老爷赏戏。”先从尊位点起，挨至贾赦，也点了一出。那人回头见了宝玉，便不向别处去，竟抢步上来，打个千儿道：“求二爷赏两出。”宝玉一见那人，面如傅粉，唇若涂朱；鲜润如出水芙渠，飘扬似临风玉树：原来不是别人，就是蒋玉菡。前日听得他带了小戏儿进京，也没有到自己那里；此时见了，又不好站起来，只得笑道：“你多早晚来的？”

Then Pardon Merchant took Precious Jade into the courtyard which was fraught with the hustle and bustle. After the two paid their respects to Count Temporary Settlement and greeted the other guests, they sat down to talk . Then the one in charge of the troupe with a playlist and a ivory tablet stepped up and fell down on one kneel, saying, "Beg your lords to choose one and enjoy the play." In the order of seniority,they choose the operas. When it came to Pardon Merchant's turn, he also chose one. At that moment, turning around and catching sight of Precious Jade, that person unexpectedly come over to him and fell on one of his kneel, "Beg master to choose one." When Precious Jade saw the man whose face seemed powdered and his lips looked scarlet, it occurred to him that he was Jade Lotus Chiang. The day before yesterday, Precious Jade heard that he had brought a group of young actors with him to Peking, but he did not come to visit him. On such an occasion, Precious Jade could not just stand up to greet him, so he had to smile instead and asked, "When did you come?"

蒋玉菡把手在自己身子上一指，笑道：“怎么二爷不知道么？”宝玉因众人在坐，也难说话，只得胡乱点了一出。蒋玉菡去了，便有几个议论道：“此人是谁？”有的说：“他向来是唱小旦的，如今不肯唱小旦，年纪也大了，就在府里掌班。头里也改过小生。他也攒了好几个钱，家里已经有两三个铺子，只是不肯放下本业，原旧领班。”有的说：“想必成了家了。”有的说：“亲还没有定。他倒掌定一个主意，说是人生配偶，关系一生一世的事，不是混闹得的，不论尊卑贵贱，总要配的上他的才能。所以到如今还并没娶亲。”

Jade Lotus Buds put his hand on his body and smiled, "Why don't you know my second master?" Precious Jade couldn't speak because everyone was sitting, so he had to choose randomly. When Jade Lotus Buds went, there were several discussions: "Who is this person?" Some said: "He has always sung Xiaodan, but now he refuses to sing Xiaodan, and he is too old, so he is in charge of the house. He has also changed to Xiaosheng. He has saved a lot of money, and his family already has two or three shops, but he refused to let go of his business, and still worked as the former foreman." Some said,"He must get married." Some said: "The marriage has not yet been decided. He has made up an idea, saying that it is a life spouse, a matter of life, not a mess, no matter how high or low, you must always be worthy of his talents. So there is no such thing as yet."

宝玉暗忖度道：“不知日后谁家的女孩儿嫁他？要嫁着这样的人材儿，也算是不辜负了。”那时开了戏，也有昆腔，也有高腔，也有弋腔，梆子腔：做得热闹。到了晌午，便摆开桌子吃酒。又看了一回，贾赦便欲起身。临安伯过来留道：“天色尚早。听见说蒋玉菡还有一出《占花魁》，他们顶好的首戏。”宝玉听了，巴不得贾赦不走；于是贾赦又坐了一会。果然蒋玉菡扮着秦小官，伏侍花魁醉后神情，把这一种怜香惜玉的意思，做得极情尽致。以后对饮对唱，缠绵缱绻。宝玉这时不看花魁，只把两支眼睛独射在秦小官身上。

Precious Jade wondered who the lucky girl would be to marry such an intelligent man. Then the performance started with Kun opera, Yi Opera, Gao Opera and Ban Zi operas. At noon tables were set out for the banquet, and when they had watched a little longer Pardon Merchant wanted to leave.“It’s early,” said the duke, coming over to persuade him to stay. “And I’ve heard that Jade Lotus Buds is going to play their best opera — a scene from The Oil-Vendor and the Courtesan.”Precious Jade hearing this was most eager to stay, and so Pardon Merchant resumed his seat. Then Jade Lotus Buds came on in the role of the oil-vendor Qin and gave an excellent performance of how the young man cared for the courtesan when she was drunk, after which the two of them drank and sang together in affectionate intimacy. Precious Jade was not interested in the woman, but staring at the male role.

更加蒋玉菡声音响亮，口齿清楚，按腔落板，宝玉的神魂都唱了进去了。直等这出戏进场后，更知蒋玉菡极是情种，非寻常戏子可比。因想着：“《乐记》上说的是：‘情动于中，故形于声；声成文，谓之音。’所以知声，知音，知乐，有许多讲究。声音之原，不可不察。诗词一道，但能传情，不能入骨，自后想要讲究讲究音律。”宝玉想出了神，忽见贾赦起身，主人不及相留。宝玉没法，只得跟了回来。到了家中，贾赦自回那边去了。宝玉来见贾政。贾政才下衙门，正向贾琏问起拿车之事。贾琏道：“今儿叫人拿帖儿去，知县不在家。

Precious Jade was quite enraptured by his singing, for Jade Lotus had a resonant voice, clear enunciation and good sense of rhythm. By the end of the performance, he was firmly convinced that Jade Lotus was a romantic, completely unique artist, and not to be compared with the common actors. He thought, "The Book of Music rightly says, 'Stirred feelings find expression in sound, and when the sound follows a pattern we call it music.' So sounds, notes and music take some understanding, and a study has to be made of their origin. Poetry can convey emotions, but it can't thrill us to the marrow. In future I really must make a study of music." His reverie was interrupted by Pardon Merchant rising to leave. As their host could not prevail on him to stay, Precious Jade had no choice but to go back with him. On their return Pardon Merchant went straight to his own home. And Precious Jade, paying his duty call on his father, found him just back from the ministry questioning Romance Merchant about the seizure of their carts. Romance Merchant said, "I sent servants there today with my card, but the local mandarin was out.

贾琏骂了一顿，叫大管家赖升：“将各行档的花名册子拿来，你去查点查点，写一张谕帖，叫那些人知道。若有并未告假，私自出去，传唤不到，贻误公事的，立刻给我打了撵出去！”赖升连忙答应了几个“是”，出来吩咐了一回，家人各自留意。过不几时，忽见有一个人，头上载着毡帽，身上穿着一身青布衣裳，脚下穿着一双撒鞋，走到门上，向众人作了个揖。众人拿眼上上下下打谅了他一番，便问他：“是那里来的？”那人道：“我自南边甄府中来的。并有家老爷手书一封，求这里的爷们呈上尊老爷。”众人听见他是甄府来的，才站起来让他坐下，道：“你乏了，且坐坐。我们给你回就是了。”

Romance Merchant scolded and asked Advancement, the major housekeeper, "bring me the roster of various lines of business, and you go and check them out, and write an oracle post to let those people know. If anyone goes out without asking for leave and cannot be summoned, he will be beaten and kicked out immediately!

门上一面进来回明贾政，呈上来书。贾政拆书看时，上写着：世交夙好，气谊素敦，遥仰襜帷，不胜依切。弟因菲材获谴，自分万死难偿，幸邀宽宥，待罪边隅。迄今门户雕零，家人星散。所有奴子包勇，向曾使用，虽无奇技，人尚悫实。倘使得备奔走，糊口有资，屋乌之爱，感佩无涯矣！专此奉达，余容再叙。不宣。贾政看完，笑道：“这里正因人多，甄家倒荐人来。又不好却的。”吩咐门上：“叫他见我，且留他住下，因材使用便了。”门上出去，带进人来，见贾政，便磕了三个头，起来道：“家老爷请老爷安。”自己又打个千儿，说：“包勇请老爷安。”

A subordinate walked into the house to report to Master Merchant and presented the letter. He immediately opened the letter and read, "Every generation in our family is very close and has a deep friendship. When I see the eaves of your house from a distance, I feel very kind in my heart.

Now my family is gradually declining, and there are few members of the family. There are many slaves in my family who have served for many years. Although they do not have any skills, they are Be honest and honest. If you can give them some relief, so that they can survive, I will feel at ease. I express my heartfelt thanks for this. The above is all I have to say, and I will talk about it later. Master Merchant smiled after reading it, "There are already so many people in my family, and now there are so many.

贾政回问了甄老爷的好，便把他上下一瞧，但见包勇身长五尺有零，肩背宽肥，浓眉爆眼，磕额长髯，气色粗黑，垂着手站着。便问道：“你是向来在甄家的，还是住过几年的？”包勇道：“小的向在甄家的。”贾政道：“你如今为什么要出来呢？”包勇道：“小的原不肯出来，只是家爷再四叫小的出来，说是别处你不肯去，这里老爷家里只当原在自己家里一样的，所以小的来的。”贾政道：“你们老爷不该有这事情，弄到这样的田地。”包勇道：“小的本不敢说：我们老爷只是太好了，一味的真心待人，反倒招出事来。”贾政道：“真心是最好的了。”

Master Merchant asked after Master Truth health and looked at Bag Valiant who was standing with his hands hanging down. Just over five feet and broad-shouldered, he had thick eyebrows, protuberant eyes and a low forehead. His face was bearded and swarthy. "Have you been with the Truth family, or have you lived there just for several years?" asked Master Merchant. Bag Valiant said, "I have always been their man, sir." "Why are you coming out now?" asked Master Merchant. Bag Valiant said, "I didn’t want to, but my master insisted. He said, ‘You wouldn’t agree to going anywhere else, but serving the Merchant family will be like serving us.’ So I came, sir." "Your master shouldn't have this thing, reducing him to these straits." said Master Merchant. "If I may make bold to say so, it’s because my master’s too good.” Bag Valiant said. “And he always blindly treat people sincerely, which invite troubles to him." Master Merchant exclaimed, "sincerity is the best."

包勇道：“因为太真了，人人都不喜欢，讨人厌烦是有的。”贾政笑了一笑道：“既这样，皇天自然不负他的。”包勇还要说时，贾政又问道：“我听见说你们家的哥儿不是也叫宝玉么？”包勇道：“是。”贾政道：“他还肯向上巴结么？”包勇道：“老爷若问我们哥儿，倒是一段奇事。哥儿的脾气也和我家老爷一个样子，也是一味的诚实，从小儿只管和那些姐妹们在一处顽。老爷太太也狠打过几次，他只是不改。那一年太太进京的时候儿，哥儿大病了一场，已经死了半日，把老爷几乎急死，装裹都预备了。

幸喜后来好了，嘴里说道：走到一座牌楼那里，见了一个姑娘，领着他到了一座庙里，见了好些柜子，里头见了好些册子；又到屋里，见了无数女子，说是多变了鬼怪似的，也有变做骷髅儿的；他吓急了，便哭喊起来。老爷知他醒过来了，连忙调治，渐渐的好了。老爷仍叫他在姐妹们一处顽去，他竟改了脾气了：好着时候的玩意儿一概都不要了，惟有念书为事。就有什么人来引诱他，他也全不动心。如今渐渐的能彀帮着老爷料理些家务了。”贾政默然想了一回，道：“你去歇歇去罢。等这里用着你时，自然派你一个行次儿。”包勇答应着，退下来，跟着这里人出去歇息不提。

“Fortunately, he recovered in the end. He talked that he saw a girl at a memorial arch, who led him to a temple, where there were a great number of cabinets with many volumes of books inside. Walking inside, he saw many girls, who became ghosts and skeletons. He was so scared that he yelled and cried. When the Master knew he had woken, he set some doctors to give him a treatment. After that, he became well gradually. The Master then still allowed him to play with his sisters, but his character changed a lot. He threw away all the gadgets that he liked before and focused on books. Also, he would not be tempted to do other things by anyone. Now, he was able to help the Master with some family affairs.” Master Merchant pondered for a while after hearing what he said. “You can leave now. You will have your task when we need you,” Master Merchant said. Courage Bag showed his gratitude and left the room with other servants. His part ended.

Then, luckily, he came round. But he started raving that he’d met a girl by an archway who took him into a temple, inside which were many cabinets filled with albums. Then going into a room he saw countless girls who’d all turned into ghosts or skel�etons. That set him screaming with fright. As soon as our master saw that he’d come to he gave him good medical treatment, and gradually he recovered. After that, when our master sent him off to amuse himself with the girls, as he always used to, we discovered that he’d changed— he no longer enjoyed his old pleasures but much preferred to study. Even when they tried to coax him away from his books, he took no interest at all. So now, little by little, he’s learning to help his father manage the household.”Master Merchant digested this in thoughtful silence.“Go off and rest now,” he said presently. “When a task comes up that you can do, of course we’ll assign you some duties.”Bao Yong thanked him and withdrew, going out with the gateman to rest.

一日贾政早起，刚要上衙门，看见门上那些人在那里交头接耳，好像要使贾政知道的是的，又不好明回，只管咕咕唧唧的说话。贾政叫上来问道：“你们有什么事这么鬼鬼祟祟的？”门上的人回道：“奴才们不敢说。”贾政道：“有什么事不敢说的？”门上的人道：“奴才今儿起来，开门出去，见门上贴着一张白纸，上写着许多不成事体的字。”贾政道：“那里有这样的事！写的是什么？”门上的人道：“是水月庵里的腌臜话。”贾政道：“拿给我瞧。”门上的人道：“奴才本要揭下来，谁知他贴得结实，揭不下来，只得一面抄，一面洗。
One morning,Master Merchant rose early and was setting off to his yamen when he noticed the servants at the gate whispering and muttering among themselves as if they had some news for him which they dared not report outright. He called them over.“What is this hole-and-corner business’?” he demanded.“We hardly dare tell you, sir,” one of them answered.“Why not? Out with it!”“This morning when we got up and opened the gate, we found a sheet of paper pasted on it, covered with scurrilous writing.”“The idea!” exclaimed Master Merchant. “What was it?”“Dirty talk about Water Moon Convent, sir.”“Bring me the paper,” he ordered.“We tried to take it down, but it was glued on too firmly; so we copied it out, then soaked the paper to get it off.

刚才李德揭了一张给奴才瞧，就是那门上贴的话。奴才们不敢隐瞒。”说着，呈上那帖儿。贾政接来看时，上面写着：“西贝草斤”年纪轻，水月庵里管尼僧。一个男人多少女，窝娼聚赌是陶情。不肖子弟来办事，荣国府内出新闻。贾政看了，气得头昏目晕，赶着叫门上的人不许声张，悄悄叫人往宁荣两府靠近的夹道子墙壁上再去找寻。随即叫人去唤贾琏出来。贾琏即忙赶至。贾政忙问道：“水月庵中寄居的那些女尼女道，向来你也查考查考过没有？”贾琏道：“没有，一向都是芹儿在那里照管。”贾政道：“你知道芹儿照管得来，照管不来？”

Just now Li de got one for me. On it were with the same words on the gate. I dared not to hide anything from you." Saying, he handed over the post. Master Merchant took it and saw it writing, "Xibeicaojin is young, managing nuns and monks in the Water Moon Nunnery. A man with so many women, the place made prostitute and gambling a cultivation. The unfilial came and the Merchant family made a bust." Master Merchant almost passed out by the post. He hurriedly asked the gatekeeper to conceal it and ordered servants to search for the rest of the posts on the wall of the mansion. He then asked someone to bring Romance Merchant. Romance rushed over and Master asked, "Have you investigate on the nuns in the Water Moon Nunnery?" Roamcne replied, "No. Celery is in charge." Master asked, "How do you know that Celery is capable?"

贾琏道：“老爷既这么说，想来芹儿必有不妥当的地方儿。”贾政叹道：“你瞧瞧这个帖儿写的是什么。”贾琏一看道：“有这样事么。”正说着，只见贾蓉走来，拿着一封书子，写着“二老爷密启”。打开看时，也是无头榜一张，与门上所贴的话相同。贾政道：“快叫赖大带了三四辆车子到水月庵里去，把那些女尼女道士一齐拉回来。不许泄漏，只说里头传唤。”赖大领命去了。且说水月庵中小女尼女道士等，初到庵中，沙弥与道士原系老尼收管，日间教他些经忏。以后元妃不用，也便习学得懒怠了。那些女孩子们年纪渐渐的大了，都也有个知觉了。
Romance Merchant replied: “Since you said so, Celery must do something wrong." Master Merchant sighed, "Look at this, what crap on it." Romance Merchant looked at it and said, "when did it happen" As he was speaking, Prosperity Merchant came up, holding a letter with the words "Second Master Only." Romance Merchant opened it, which is also a headless post saying the same as the words posted on the door. Master Merchant said, "Quickly ask Big Rely to bring three or four carts to the Water Moon Nunnery and bring those nuns and Daoist monks back together. No one can tell the reason to them. Just tell them this is my summonses. Big Rely took the order and went. As for the nuns and monks in the Water Moon Nunnery, they were originally taken charge and taught with some sutras by old nuns during the day. Later, when the Yuan Concubine did not use them, they became lazy. As the girls grew older, they all became conscious.

贾芹喝了几杯，便说道要行令。沁香等道：“我们都不会，到不如搳拳罢。谁输了喝一杯，岂不爽快？”本庵的女尼道：“这天刚过晌午，混嚷混喝的不像，且先喝几盅，爱散的先散去。谁爱陪芹大爷的，回来晚上尽子喝去，我也不管。”正说着，只见道婆急忙进来说：“快散了罢，府里赖大爷来了。”众女尼忙乱收拾，便叫贾芹躲开。贾芹因多喝了几杯，便道：“我是送月钱来的，怕什么！”话犹未完，已见赖大进来。见这般样子，心里大怒。为的是贾政吩咐不许声张，只得含糊装笑道：“芹大爷也在这里呢么？”贾芹连忙站起来道：“赖大爷，你来作什么？”

After a few drinks, Celery Merchant proposed to play a drinking game. Pleasure Fragrance and the others said that they didn’t know the game so it would be better if they play finger-guess which is easy and fun: losers drink.“it’s inappropriate to drink and game since it’s only past midday. We can drink a little and return. For those who want to game with Mr. Merchant, just come here at night and I would say nothing about it.”A nun objected. As they spoke, a nun rushed in and said, “Stop it right now! Mr.Rely is here.”All the nuns started to clean it up and advised Celery Merchant to hide. “No need to panic. I’m here to deliver you the month allowance.”Celery Merchant bragged since he got loaded. He didn’t finish his words when Big rely came in, who was infuriated at the scene, but had to follow Master Merchant’s instruction to keep it down and so he smiled, “Didn’t expect to see you here, Mr.Celery Merchant.

They’re wanted in the palace.”This puzzled them all, but before they could question him the steward continued,“Time presses. Be quick about it, or we may be shut out.”the novices had to mount the carriages then.

赖大来了，叫他押着，也别声张，等明儿老爷回来再发落。倘或芹儿来了，也不用说明，看他明儿见了老爷怎么样说。”贾政听来有理，只得上班去了。贾琏抽空才要回到自己房中，一面走着，心里抱怨凤姐出的主意，欲要埋怨，因他病着，只得隐忍，慢慢的走着。且说那些下人，一人传十，传到里头，先是平儿知道，即忙告诉凤姐。凤姐因那一夜不好，恹恹的总没精神，正是惦记铁槛寺的事情。听说“外头贴了匿名揭帖”的一句话，吓了一跳，忙问：“贴的是什么？”平儿随口答应，不留神，就错说了，道：“没要紧，是馒头庵里的事情。”

When Lai Da gets back, I shall tell him to keep the nuns locked up and not to say anything until you have had an opportunity of settling the affair yourself tomorrow. If Qin comes, I shall say nothing. We shall see how he reacts when you speak to him tomorrow.” It seemed reasonable enough, and Jia Zheng left with some reluctance for the Board. As soon as he had gone Jia Lian set off back to his own apartment, brooding as he went on what he was going to say to Xi-feng. He held her to blame for having given Qin this job in the first place. But then he remembered that she was ill and relented. He had better not be too hard on her. He slackened his pace. Meanwhile the news had spread among the servants. It soon reached the ears of Patience, who immediately went to tell her mistress. Xi-feng had had a bad night anyway and was feeling very low. Her feeble state intensified her ever-present anxiety about the various misdeeds that lay on her conscience, in particular her unscrupulous dealings at Water-moon Priory. When she learnt of the anonymous poster, she sat up with a jolt and asked Patience:“What did it say?” Patience thoughtlessly replied:“Oh, nothing much. Something to do with the nuns at Water-moon Priory.”

凤姐本是心虚，听见“馒头庵的事情”，这一唬直唬怔了，一句话没说出来，急火上攻，眼前发晕，咳嗽了一阵，哇的一声，吐出一口血来。平儿慌了，说道：“水月庵里，不过是女沙弥女道士的事，奶奶着什么急？”凤姐听是水月庵，才定了定神，说道：“呸，糊涂东西！到底是水月庵呢，是馒头庵？”平儿笑道：“是我头里错听了，是馒头庵，后来听见不是馒头庵，是水月庵。我刚才也就说溜了嘴，说成馒头庵了。”凤姐道：“我就知道是水月庵。那馒头庵与我什么相干！原是这水月庵是我叫芹儿管的。大约刻扣了月钱。”平儿道：“我听着不像月钱的事，还有些腌臜话呢。”

Sister Phoenix with her guilty conscience was so consternated by this that she could not speak. She came over dizzy and after a fit of coughing spat out a mouthful of blood. In a fluster Patience corrected herself. “It’s only some problem over those Buddhist and Taoist novices in Water Moon Convent. Why should that upset you so, madam?” “Ai! You fool!” exclaimed Sister Phoenix her relief. “Was it Water Moon Convent or Steamed-Bread Convent? Make up your mind!” “I misheard it the first time, then discovered that it was Water Moon Convent, not Steamed-Bread Convent. Just now, by a slip of the tongue, I gave you the wrong name.” “I knew it must be Water Moon Convent. What have I to do with Steamed-Bread Convent? I did put Qin in charge of that convent. Probably he’s been helping himself to their monthly allowance.” “I didn’t hear talk of that but of some scandal”, Patience replied.

凤姐道：“我更不管那个。你二爷那里去了？”平儿说：“听见老爷生气，他不敢走开。我听见事情不好，我吩咐这些人不许吵嚷，不知太太们知道了么。但听见说，老爷叫赖大拿这些女孩子去了。且叫个人前头打听打听。奶奶现在病着，依我竟先别管他们的闲事。”正说着，只见贾琏进来。凤姐欲待问他，见贾琏一脸的怒气，暂且装作不知。贾琏饭没吃完，旺儿来说：“外头请爷呢，赖大回来了。”贾琏道：“芹儿来了没有？”旺儿道：“也来了。”贾琏便道：“你去告诉赖大，说：老爷上班儿去了，把这些个女孩子暂且收在园里，明日等老爷回来，送进宫去。只叫芹儿在内书房等着我。”

"Well, I care even less about that.Where is Master Lian?" "He's been in ever since he heard that the Master was in a rage," replied Patience.

旺儿去了。贾芹走进书房，只见那些下人指指点点不知说什么，看起这个样儿来，不像宫里要人。想着问人，又问不出来。正在心里疑惑，只见贾琏走出来，贾芹便请了安，垂手侍立，说道：“不知道娘娘宫里即刻传那些孩子们做什么？叫侄儿好赶！幸喜侄儿今儿送月钱去，还没有走，便同着赖大来了。二叔想来是知道的。”贾琏道：“我知道什么？你才是明白的呢！”贾芹摸不着头脑儿，也不敢再问。贾琏道：“你干得好事！把老爷都气坏了。”贾芹道：“侄儿没有干什么。庵里月钱是月月给的，孩子们经忏是不忘记的。”

Then Vigor went off. When ha Celery Merchant went to the study, the way the servants pointed at him and nudged each other made him doubt this talk about a summons to the Palace. He asked what was afoot, but no one would tell him.

Luckily I took them their allowance today and was still there, so I came back with Big Lie. I suppose you know all this, uncle. “What do I know?

I take them their allowance every month, and the girls keep up their devotions.” Celery Merchant said.

贾琏见他不知，又是平素常在一处顽笑的，便叹口气道：“打嘴的东西！你各自去瞧瞧罢！”便从靴掖儿里头拿出那个揭帖来，扔与他瞧。贾芹拾来一看，吓的面如土色，说道：“这是谁干的！我并没得罪人，为什么这么坑我？我一月送钱去，只走一趟，并没有这些事。若是老爷回来，打着问我，侄儿便该死了。我母亲知道，更要打死。”说着，见没人在旁边，便跪下去说道：“好叔叔，救我一救儿罢！”说着，只管磕头，满眼流泪。贾琏想道：“老爷最恼这些，要是问准了有这些事，这场气也不小。闹出去也不好听，又长那个贴帖儿的人的志气了。将来咱们的事多着呢。Having noticed that he indeed had no idea about it, and they themselves privately were on speaking terms, Romance Merchant sighed," You bastard.! Take and see it carefully!" as putting out a notice from his shoes and throwing it to Celery Merchant. At the sight of the notice, Celery Merchant said questioningly with his face ashy gray," Who made it? I never gave offence to anybody, why should I be ensnared like this? I merely went there once a month for sending money and never did such things. I would be sunk if the master asked me about it after his back, and the consequence would be even worse if my mom knew it." Seeing no other people around here, Celery Merchant knelt down to implore him,"my dear uncle, please help me, please!" followed kowtowing and tearing constantly. "Master is very vexed with such things and must be extremely angry with this if he knew it's true." Romance Merchant thought to himself, "And the family's reputation would be blemished for the spreading of it, which, on the contrary, the notice maker would be therefore more arrogant. There are many other concerns in the future."

With that in mind, Romance Merchant came into Lady King's room and reported to her, "Yesterday, being outraged by that letter, the master instructed that taking Celery Merchant and those Buddhist and Taoist nuns into the mansion to investigate them. Today he is too busy to bother about such a disgraceful matter, and then ordered me to report to you that dealing with it as you wish. So, I'm here to ask you how to cope with it." "Why! It's unreasonable to regard Celery Merchant as one of our family, let alone his disreputable behavior today. Moreover, the one who pasted that letter is detestable! How could they gossip about such things! Have you asked Celery Merchant this matter or not?" Lady King said with astonishment. "I asked him just now. Even if he did that, how could he admit such indecent behavior? Leave alone he might be innocent. Think about it. But I assume that he dared not to do such a thing, knowing the girls would be called by the imperial concubine someday. What will he do if something happens?" replied Romance Merchant.

Thus resolved, he went in to see Lady King.“Yesterday the master was angry over that lampoon,”he announced, explaining its contents.“He had Celery and the novices brought here for an investigation.

He's not to show his face here anymore, except for sacrifices and celebrations. And he'd better be careful to steer clear of the master if he's in one of his tempers, or else he'll settle Qin's hash! And send word to Water Moon Convent that, on the master's orders, they're not to receive young gentlemen from our house except when they go to sacrifice at one of the graves there. Another thing: tell the accountants' office to cancel this allowance. If there's any more talk we'll drive away the whole lot, including the old abbess.” Romance Merchant assented “This is how Her Ladyship wants you to handle this business,” he informed him. “When it's done, let me know so that I can report to her.

赖大听说，便道：“我们太太真正是个佛心，这班东西着人送回去。既是太太好心，不得不挑个好人。芹哥儿竟交给二爷开发了罢。那个贴帖儿的，奴才想法儿查出来，重重的收拾他才好。”贾琏点头说：“是了。”即刻将贾芹发落。赖大也赶着把女尼等领出，按着主意办去了。晚上贾政回家，贾琏赖大回明贾政。贾政本是省事的人，听了也便撂开手了。独有那些无赖之徒，听得贾府发出二十四个女孩子出来，那个不想？究竟那些人能彀回家不能，未知着落，亦难虚拟。且说紫鹃因黛玉渐好，园中无事，听见女尼等预备宫内使唤，不知何事，便到贾母那边打听打听。

When Lai Da heard this, he said, "Our ladyship is really a Buddha," and this class of things was sent back." Both are too kind to have to pick a good person. Brother Qin actually handed it over to Precious Jade to develop. The one who posted it, the slave thought about finding out, and it was good to clean up after him. Jia Lian nodded and said, "Yes." "Immediately send Jia Qin down." Lai Da also hurried to lead the nuns out and did as he was told. In the evening, Jia Zheng went home, and Jia Lianlai returned to Ming Jia Zheng.

恰遇着鸳鸯下来闲着，坐下说闲话儿，提起女尼的事，鸳鸯咤异道：“我并没有听见，回来问问二奶奶就知道了。”正说着，只见傅试家两个女人过来请贾母的安，鸳鸯要陪了上去。那两个女人因贾母正睡晌觉，就与鸳鸯说了一声儿，回去了。紫鹃问：“这是谁家差来的？”鸳鸯道：“好讨人嫌！家里有了一个女孩儿，生得好些，便献宝的是的，常常在老太太面前夸他家姑娘长得怎么好，心地怎么好，礼貌上又能，说话儿又简绝，做活计儿手儿又巧，会写会算，尊长上头最孝敬的，就是待下人也是极和平的，来了就编这么一大套，常常说给老太太听。我听着狠烦。

Happen to meet Mandarin Duck’s leisure, they sat chatting. The mention of Buddhist nun surprises Mandarin Duck:“I didn’t hear it and we will know after second grandma come.” Whiling saying, Mandarin Duck planned to welcome two women in Testing Assist’s family coming to visit Grandma Merchant. Because Mother Merchant was sleeping at noon, the two women spoke to the Mandarin Duck and went back. Purple Cuckoo asked, "Whose family sent this?" Mandarin Duck said: "What a nuisance! They praised their beautiful daughter as treasures in the presence of Mother Merchant by boasting her good nature, appearance ,politeness and eloquence. The girl was skillful at writing and calculating, and the most dutiful of her superiors was very peaceful to servants. When she came, she would make up such a talk and often told the old lady. I'm sick of hearing it.

She happened to find Mandarin Duck free too, and sitting down to chat she asked her about the nuns. “This is news to me,” said Mandarin Duck in surprise. “I’ll find out later on from Madam Phoenix.” As they were talking, two serving-women from Test Assist’s family arrived to pay their respects to the Lady Dowager. Mandarin Duck was taking them there when they heard that the old lady was having a nap, so the women delivered their message to her and left. “Where are they from?” asked Nightingale. “They’re perfect pests!”Mandarin Duck told her. “The Assists have a daughter who is not bad-looking, so they keep coming to praise her to the old lady for her good looks, good heart and good manners. They say she’s no chatter-box but a skilled needlewoman, who can write and keep accounts too, most dutiful to her elders and kind to the servants. Each time they come they reel all this off, as if offering the old lady some rare treasure. I can’t bear listening to them!--[[User:Xiao Dongqing|Xiao Dongqing]] ([[User talk:Xiao Dongqing|talk]]) 02:39, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

这几个老婆子真讨人嫌。我们老太太偏爱听那些个话。老太太也罢了，还有宝玉，素常见了老婆子，便狠厌烦的，偏见了他们家的老婆子便不厌烦，你说奇不奇？前儿还来说：他们姑娘现有多少人家儿来求亲，他们老爷总不肯应，心里只要和咱们这种人家作亲才肯。一回夸奖，一回奉承，把老太太的心都说活了。”紫鹃听了一呆，便假意道：“若老太太喜欢，为什么不就给宝玉定了呢？”鸳鸯正要说出原故，听见上头说：“老太太醒了。”鸳鸯赶着上去，紫鹃只得起身出来。回到园里，一头走，一头想道：“天下莫非只有一个宝玉？你也想他，我也想他。

But although they’re such a nuisance, our old lady loves that kind of talk. She isn’t the only one either. Even Precious Jade who can’t abide most old women doesn’t mind these from the Assist family. Odd, isn’t it? Only the other day they came to say that lots of people are asking for their young lady, but her father won’t give his consent hinting that only a family like ours would be good enough for her. All their praise and flattery are having some effect on the old lady.” Though taken aback, Nightingale asked with a show of indifference, “If she thinks it a good match for Precious Jade, then why not fix it up?” Before Mandarin Duck could explain someone inside called Out, “The old lady’s woken!” Mandarin Duck hurried in then and Nightingale got up to leave. On her way back to the Garden she ruminated, “Is there only one Precious Jade in the world that everybody should want him?

我们家的那一位，越发痴心起来了。看他的那个神情儿，是一定在宝玉身上的了。三番五次的病，可不是为着这个是什么！这家里‘金’的‘银’的还闹不清，若添了一个什么傅姑娘，更了不得了。我看宝玉的心也在我们那一位的身上；听着鸳鸯的说话，竟是见一个爱一个的。这不是我们姑娘白操了心了吗？”紫鹃本是想着黛玉，往下一想，连自己也不得主意了，不免掉下泪来。要想叫黛玉不用瞎操心呢，又恐怕他烦恼；若是看着他这样，又可怜见儿的。左思右想，一时烦躁起来，自己啐自己道：

And our young lady's the one who dotes on him most. Whenever I see her sinking into one of her depressions, I can tell it's because of him. That's what has been making her fall ill all the time too. There's confusion enough here already, what with gold unicorns and gold lockets, without foisting another Miss Fu on us too! I think it's our young lady that Precious Jade Merchant fancies; but judging by what Fragrant Official says, he falls in love with every girl he meets. If so, our young lady's eating her heart out for nothing.” From thinking of Mascara Jade Fores she went on to wonder what she herself should do, until she felt quite distracted. Though tempted to advise Mascara Jade Forest to stop caring so much for Precious Jade Merchant, she was afraid this would upset her; yet seeing her like this made her heart bleed. The more she brooded the more anxious she grew.

“你替人耽什么忧！就是林姑娘真配了宝玉，他的那性情儿也是难伏侍的。宝玉性情虽好，又是贪多嚼不烂的。我倒劝人不必瞎操心，我自己才是瞎操心呢！从今已后，我尽我的心伏侍姑娘，其余的事全不管。”这么一想，心里倒觉清净。回到潇湘馆来，见黛玉独自一人，坐在炕上理从前做过的诗文词稿，抬头见紫鹃来，便问：“你到那里去了？”紫鹃道：“我今儿睄了睄姐妹们去。”黛玉道：“敢是找袭人姐姐去么？”紫鹃道：“我找他做什么？”黛玉一想，这话怎么顺嘴说了出来？反觉不好意思，便啐道：“你找谁与我什么相干！倒茶去罢。”

“Why worry about someone else? Even if she really marries, the way she is it won’t be easy to please her; and Precious Jade, for all he’s good-natured, is too much of a flirt. But here I am hoping she’ll stop worrying yet worrying myself for nothing! From now on I’ll look after her as best I can and not care about anything else.” This conclusion helped to calm her down by the time she reached Bamboo Lodge, where she found Mascara Jade sitting all by herself on the kang sorting out her old poems and essays. She looked up when Nightingale came in. “Where have you been?” she asked. “To call on some other girls.” “Did you see Sister Aroma?” “Why should I go to see her?” Mascara Jade wondered how she had come to blurt out such a question, and in embarrassment she answered curtly, “I don’t care where you go. Fetch me some tea.”

紫鹃也心里暗笑，出来倒茶。只听见园里的一叠声乱嚷，不知何故。一面倒茶，一面叫人去打听。回来说道：“怡红院里的海棠本来萎了几棵，也没人去浇灌他。昨日宝玉走去瞧，见枝头上好像有了蓇朵儿是的。人都不信，没有理他。忽然今日开得狠好的海棠花，众人咤异，都争着去看，连老太太、太太都哄动了，来瞧花儿呢。所以大奶奶叫人收拾园里败叶枯枝，这些人在那里传唤。”黛玉也听见了，知道老太太来，便更了衣，叫雪雁去打听：“若是老太太来了，即来告诉我。”雪雁去不多时，便跑来说：“老太太、太太好些人都来了，请姑娘就去罢。”

Laughing in her heart, Nightingale went out to prepare the tea and heard a clamour of voices in the Garden. When she poured the tea she sent someone to find out what had happened.The girl sent came back and told her, “Some crab-apple trees in Happy Red Court had withered, and nobody watered them; but yesterday when Precious Jade had a look he said he saw buds on the branches. No one believed him or paid any attention to it. Today, suddenly, they burst into bloom with lovely crab-apple flowers! People were so amazed that they rushed over there to look, It’s caused such a sensation that even the old lady and Her Ladyship are coming to see the flowers. So Madam Zhu’s given orders to have the leaves in the Garden swept up, and they were calling servants just now to do this.”Mascara Jade, overhearing that the old lady was coming, at once changed her clothes and sent Snowgoose out to keep watch.“Tell me as soon as the old lady comes,” she said.It was not long before Snowgoose came running back. “The old lady and the mistress have come with quite a party,” she replied.” You’d better go right away, miss.”

黛玉略自照了一照镜子，掠了一掠鬓发，便扶着紫鹃到怡红院来，已见老太太坐在宝玉常卧的榻上。黛玉便说道：“请老太太安。”退后便见了邢王二夫人，回来与李纨、探春、惜春、邢岫烟彼此问了好。只有凤姐因病未来；史湘云因他叔叔调任回京，接了家去；薛宝琴跟他姐姐家去住了；李家姐妹因见园内多事，李婶娘带了在外居住：所以黛玉今日见的只有数人。大家说笑了一回，讲究这花开得古怪。贾母道：“这花儿应在三月里开的，如今虽是十一月，因节气迟，还算十月，应着小阳春的天气，因为和暖，开花也是有的。”王夫人道：“老太太见的多，说得是，也不为奇。”

Dai-yu took a brief look in the mirror, passed a comb quickly through her hair and set off with Nightingale in the direction of Green Delights. She arrived to find Grandmother Jia installed on Bao-yu's day-couch,and after greeting her,and Lady Xing and Lady Wang went on to say hello to Li Wan, Tan-chun, Xi-chun and Xing Xiuyan.She noticed that several people were absent: Xi-feng was ill in bed, Shi Xiang-yun had gone home to see her uncle who was in the capital on transfer, while Bao-qin had stayed at home with Bao-chai, and the two Li sisters, Wen and Qi, had been taken to live elsewhere by their mother, whom recent events had convinced that Prospect Garden was a rather unsuitable environment for her daughters.They were all chatting away, each propounding a different interpretation of the strange phenomenon of the winter-flowering crab-trees. “They usually flower in the third month, I know,” Grandmother Jia was saying. “And we are in the eleventh month now. But then the movable terms in the calendar are rather late this year, so we could say this is more like the tenth month, which is after all sometimes called "Little Spring". With the exceptionally warm weather we have been having, a little blossom is only to be expected.”

邢夫人道：“我听见这花已经萎了一年，怎么这回不应时候儿开了？必有个原故。”李纨笑道：“老太太与太太说得都是。据我的糊涂想头，必是宝玉有喜事来了，此花先来报信。”探春虽不言语，心内想：“此花必非好兆。大凡顺者昌，逆者亡；草木知运，不时而发，必是妖孽。”只不好说出来。独有黛玉听说是喜事，心里触动，便高兴说道：“当初田家有荆树一棵，三个弟兄因分了家，那荆树便枯了；后来感动了他弟兄们，仍旧归在一处，那荆树也就荣了。可知草木也随人的。如今二哥哥认真念书，舅舅喜欢，那棵树也就发了。”贾母王夫人听了喜欢，便说：“林姑娘比方得有理，狠有意思。”
Mrs. Xing said: "I saw that this flower has been withering for a year. Why should it be blooming at this time? There must be a reason." Li Wan smiled and said: "The old lady and the lady said the same thing. According to my confusion When I think about it, it must be a happy event coming to Baoyu, and this flower will come to report first." Although Tanchun did not speak, he thought in his heart: "This flower must not be a good omen. Generally, those who are obedient are prosperous, and those who are disobedient will perish; , it must be a monster." It's hard to say. When Yu Daiyu heard that it was a happy event, she was moved, and she said happily: "In the beginning, there was a thorn tree in the Tian family, and the thorn tree was withered because the three brothers separated; In one place, the wattle tree is also honored. It can be seen that the grass and trees also follow people. Now that the second brother is studying hard, and the uncle likes it, the tree is also grown." Madam Jia Muwang heard that she liked it, and said: "Miss Lin For example, it has to be reasonable and interesting.”

正说着，贾赦、贾政、贾环、贾兰都进来看花。贾赦便说：“据我的主意，把他砍去。必是花妖作怪。”贾政道：“‘见怪不怪，其怪自败。’不用砍他，随他去就是了。”贾母听见，便说：“谁在这里混说？人家有喜事好处，什么怪不怪的！若有好事，你们享去；若是不好，我一个人当去。你们不许混说。”贾政听了，不敢言语，赸赸的同贾赦等走了出来。那贾母高兴，叫人传话到厨房里，快快预备酒席，大家赏花。叫：“宝玉、环儿、兰儿各人做一首诗志喜。林姑娘的病才好，不要他费心；若高兴，给你们改改。”对着李纨道：“你们都陪我喝酒。”李纨答应了“是”便笑对探春笑道：“都是你闹的。”

Just then, Pardon Merchant, Master Merchant, Ring Merchant and Blue Merchant all came in to see the flowers. Pardon Merchant said, "In my opinion, just cut it down. It must be flower demons which make trouble." Master Merchant added: "' If you are inured to the strange, it will not be strange. ' Don't cut it down, just let it be." When Grandma Merchant heard this, she said, "Who is talking nonsense here? There is something auspicious in store for us. If there be good things, you enjoy yourselves; If not, I will go alone. You shouldn’t fool around." Mater Merchant dare not speak when heard this, and he walked out with Pardon Merchant embarrassingly. Grandma Merchant was glad and passed on a message to the kitchen that the feast should be prepared quickly and invited all of them to enjoy the flowers. Then she said in a high voice: “Precious Jade, Ring and Blue, each of you to write a poem to express congratulations. Miss Forest was recovered from illness recently so that she was free from writing poems. If she is pleased, she will polish it for you." "You'll all drink with me," she said to Silk Plum. Silk Plum replied "yes" and then smiled at Seeking-Spring and said, "It's all your fault."

When there’s good luck, then enjoy it while you can. If not, I will take care of any bad luck. Do not say any other word of such nonsense.” This silenced Master Merchant and he walked out with Pardon Merchant awkwardly.

探春道：“饶不叫我们做诗，怎么我们闹的？”李纨道：“海棠社不是你起的么？如今那棵海棠也要来入社了。”大家听着，都笑了。一时，摆上酒菜，一面喝着。彼此都要讨老太太的欢喜，大家说些兴头话。宝玉上来斟了酒，便立成了四句诗，写出来念与贾母听，道：海棠何事忽摧隤，今日繁花为底开？应是北堂增寿考，一阳旋复占先梅。贾环也写了来，念道：草木逢春当茁芽，海棠未发候偏差。人间奇事知多少，冬月开花独我家。贾兰恭楷誊正，呈与贾母。贾母命李纨念道：烟凝媚色春前萎，霜浥微红雪后开。莫道此花知识浅，欣荣预佐合欢杯。

Seeking-Spring protested, “What do you mean? We are not allowed to write poems. And what’s my fault?” “Aren’t you the founder of crab-flower club?”, replied Silk Plum. “Now the real crab-flower is going to join in this club too.” Everyone laughed after what Silk Plum had said. Food and wine now were served and they all drank. They tried their best to amuse Grandma Merchant with some humorous conversations. Precious Jade came up to pour himself some wine, then thought for a while and wrote a poem. Then he read it to his grandma. The poem said: I asked the crab-tree why it failed to blossom at the blossom-time, now you bloomed so profusely so long before the spring? The tree said: ‘At this time, it means new birth.’, Glad tidings to the Mistress of this House I bring. Then Ring Merchant also wrote out his poem and began to recite: Plants should begin to grow up in spring, our crab-tree blossomed at a wrong time. Of all the wonders in the world, it is the first time for trees to blossom in winter in our home. Then Cymbidium Merchant made a careful copy of his poem in Kai-shu calligraphy and gave it to Grandma Merchant. Grandma Merchant asked Silk Plum to read it out: Your beauty blighted in spring, but you blossom in winter now. Don not say this tree is not wise, it adds luster to our family prosperity.

“We’ve not even been allowed to write poems,” retorted Seeking-Spring. “So surely this has nothing to do with us?” “Didn’t you start the Begonia Society? Now these crab-apples’ want to join your club too.” At that everybody laughed. Presently wine and dishes were served. And as they drank they all tried to please the old lady by cheerful talk. Precious Jade poured wine for the others, then made tip and wrote out a quatrain which he read to his grandmother. It was as follows: What made the crab-apple wither away? And today why have fresh blossoms come? To foretell a long life for our Old Ancestress It is flowering anew, ahead of the plum. Ring Merchant also wrote and read out this poem: Crab-apples should burgeon in the spring, But ours were bare this year. The world is full of strange phenomena, Yet only here do winter blooms appear. Cymbidium Merchant wrote out his verse neatly and presented it to the old lady, who made Silk Plum read it out as follows: Its misty charm had faded by last spring, But after snow and frost pink blooms unfold.

贾母听毕，便说：“我不大懂诗，听去倒是兰儿的好，环儿做得不好。都上来吃饭罢。”宝玉看见贾母喜欢，更是兴头，因想起：“晴雯死的那年，海棠死的；今日海棠复荣，我们院内这些人，自然都好，但是晴雯不能像花的死而复生了。”顿觉转喜为悲。忽又想起前日巧姐提凤姐要把五儿补入，或此花为他而开，也未可知。却又转悲为喜，依旧说笑。贾母还坐了半天，然后扶了珍珠回去了，王夫人等跟着过来。只见平儿笑嘻嘻的迎上来，说：“我们奶奶知道老太太在这里赏花，自己不得来，叫奴才来伏侍老太太、太太们。还有两匹红送给宝二爷包裹这花，当作贺礼。”
The old lady said, “I don’t know much about poetry, but I think Lan’s is the best. Huan’s is no good. Now come and eat, everyone.” Precious Jade was pleased to see her in a good mood until it occurred to him, “The crab-apple died at the same time as Sunny Cloud Formation. Now that it’s blossoming again, of course that augurs well for us in this compound, but it can’t bring Sunny Cloud Formation back to life like this flower.” At once his joy turned to sadness, till he remembered Sister Ingenious telling him that Splendid Phoenix would be sending Fivey to take Hongyu’s place. “This flower may be blossoming for her,” he thought, and his spirits rising again he chatted with the rest of them as before. After some time the old lady left, leaning on Zhenzhu’s arm and accompanied by Lady Wang and the others. On their way back Pinger accosted them. “Our mistress heard that the old lady was enjoying the flowers here,” she said with a smile. “As she couldn’t come herself, she’s sent me to help wait on Your Ladyships. Here are two rolls of red silk too, a congratulatory gift for Master Precious Jade to drape over the trees.”

袭人过来接了，呈与贾母看。贾母笑道：“偏是凤丫头行出点事儿来，叫人看着又体面，又新鲜，狠有趣儿！”袭人笑着向平儿道：“回去替宝二爷给二奶奶道谢：要有喜，大家喜。”贾母听了，笑道：“嗳哟，我还忘了呢！凤丫头虽病着，还是他想得到，送得也巧。”一面说着，众人就随着去了。平儿私与袭人道：“奶奶说，这花开得奇怪，叫你铰块红绸子挂挂，便应在喜事上去了。以后也不必只管当作奇事混说。”袭人点头答应，送了平儿出去不题。且说那日宝玉本来穿着一裹圆的皮袄在家歇息，因见花开，只管出来看一回、赏一回、叹一回、爱一回的，心中无数悲喜离合，都弄到这株花上去了。

Aroma came to pick it up and presented it to Grandma Merchant to see. Grandma Merchant smiled and said, "It's just that Splendid Phoenix has something to do, and that makes it look decent, fresh, and funny!" Aroma smiled and said to Patience: "Go back and thank Lady Phoenix for Precious Jade: everyone's joy is real joy." Grandma Merchant listened and smiled, "Oh, I forgot!" Although Splendid Phoenix is sick, she still wanted to get it, and it was also a perfection." As she spoke, the crowd went with her. Patience privately talked to Aroma: "Lady Phoenix said that this flower bloomed strangely, and told you to hang a piece of red silk, so happiness would come.In the future, there is no need to just talk about it as a miracle." Aroma nodded in agreement and sent Ping'er out without a question. Moreover,on that day, Precious Jade was originally wearing a round leather jacket to rest at home, because he saw the flowers blooming, he just came out to see for a while, appreciated it for a while, sighed for a while, and loved it for a while, and countless sorrows and joys in his heart all got to this flower.

忽然听说贾母要来，便去换了一件狐腋箭袖，罩一件玄狐腿外褂，出来迎接贾母。匆匆穿换，未将”通灵宝玉“挂上。及至后来贾母去了，仍旧换衣。袭人见宝玉脖子上没有挂着，便问：“那块玉呢？”宝玉道：“才刚忙乱换衣，摘下来放在炕桌上，我没有带。”袭人回看桌上，并没有玉，便向各处找寻，踪影全无，吓得袭人满身冷汗。宝玉道：“不用着急，少不得在屋里的。问他们就知道了。”袭人当作麝月等藏起吓他顽，便向麝月等笑着说道：“小蹄子们！顽呢，到底有个顽法。把这件东西藏在那里了？别真弄丢了，那可就大家活不成了。”

Suddenly Precious Jade heard that Grandma Merchant was coming. He went to change a Jianxiu(a kind of clothes with tight sleeves) made of fox's armpit hair and put on a garment made of the hair from black fox's legs, then he went out to welcome Grandma Merchant. He was in such a hurry to change his clothes that he forgot to wear his jade pendant of "Tong Ling Bao Yu". When Grandma Merchant left and Precious Jade went to change clothes, Aroma found that and asked him, "Where is that jade pendant?" Precious Jade answered, "I was hurrying to change my clothes. And I didn't wear it since I took it off and put it on the table." Aroma then found that the jade pendant was not on the table and looked around the room. The jade pendant was still missing, which scared Aroma to be in cold sweat. Precious Jade said, "Don't be anxious, it must stay somewhere in the room. You can ask the others." Aroma thought that it was Dusk Moon and other maids who hid the jade pendant to play tricks on her. She said to them, laughing, "You stupid girls! Are you playing the treasure haunting game? Where do you hide the jade pendant? If you really lose it, we all will be punished!"

麝月等都正色道：“这是那里的话？顽是顽，笑是笑，这个事非同儿戏，你可别混说！你自己昏了心了，想想罢，想想搁在那里了？这会子又混赖人了。”袭人见他这般光景，不像是顽话，便着急道：“皇天菩萨，小祖宗！到底你摆在那里去了？”宝玉道：“我记得明明放在炕桌上的，你们到底找啊。”袭人麝月秋纹等也不敢叫人知道，大家偷偷儿的各处搜寻。闹了大半天，毫无影响，甚至翻箱倒笼，实在没处去找，便疑到方才这些人进来，不知谁捡了去了。袭人说道：“进来的，谁不知道这玉是性命是的东西呢？谁敢捡了去呢！你们好歹先别声张，快到各处问去。“What are you talking about?” they answered seriously. “Joking is all very well, but this is no joking matter. Don’t talk nonsense. You must be crazy! Better think back to where you put it instead of accusing us.”“Heavens!” cried Aroma anxiously, seeing them so much in earnest. “Where exactly did you put it, Master Precious Jade Merchant?”“I remember quite clearly putting it on that table,” he assured her. “Make a good search for it.”Not daring to let outsiders know, Aroma, Musk Deer Month, Autumn Vein and the other girls quietly searched the whole place. They hunted around for hours, even turning out cases and crates — but all in vain. When the jade was nowhere to be found, they wondered if one of their visitors that day could have taken it.But Aroma said, “All of them know how precious this jade is. Who’d dare take it? You mustn’t, for goodness’ sake, let word of this get out, but go and make inquiries at different households.

若有姐妹们捡着吓我们顽呢，你们给他磕头，要了回来；若是小丫头偷了去，问出来，也不回上头，不论把什么送给他换了出来，都使得的。这可不是小事，真要丢了这个，比丢了宝二爷的还利害呢。”麝月秋纹刚要往外走，袭人又赶出来嘱咐道：“头里在这里吃饭的倒别先问去。找不成，再惹出些风波来，更不好了。”麝月等依言，分头各处追问。人人不晓，个个惊疑。麝月等回来，俱目瞪口呆，面面相窥，宝玉也吓怔了，袭人急的只是干哭。找是没处找，回又不敢回：怡红院里的人吓得个个像木雕泥塑一般。大家正在发呆，只见各处知道的都来了。

探春叫把园门关上，先命个老婆子带着两个丫头，再往各处去寻去；一面又叫告诉众人：“若谁找出来，重重的赏银。”大家头宗要脱干系，二宗听见重赏，不顾命的混找了一遍，甚至于茅厮里都找到。谁知那块玉竟像绣花针儿一般，找了一天，总无影响。李纨急了，说：“这件事不是顽的，我要说句无礼的话了。”众人道：“什么呢？”李纨道：“事情到了这里，也顾不得了。现在园里，除了宝玉都是女人。要求各位姐姐、妹妹、姑娘都要叫跟来的丫头脱了衣服，大家搜一搜。若没有，再叫丫头们去搜那些老婆子并粗使的丫头。”

Seeing-Spring asked servants to close the yard gate. She then asked an old female servant to bring two girl servants to search around. At the same time, she told the rest, "A bonus for anyone who find it." Everyone wanted to prove their innocence and also wanted the bonus. Therefore, all were searching for the jade. Even the toilets were searched. However, it was seen nowhere after one day. Silk Plum was worried, saying, "It is no joke. I am going to be rude." Everyone was confused. She continued, "As for now, I think there is no other options. Now, except Precious Jade, everyone in the yard is female. So I beg every one of you to take off your clothes and let's search it again. If still no result, then I'll ask girl servants to search the old lady servants and manual servants."

大家说道：“这话也说的有理。现在人多手乱，鱼龙混杂，到是这么一来，你们也洗洗清。”探春独不言语。那些丫头们也都愿意洗净自己。先是平儿起。平儿说道：“打我先搜起。”于是各人自己解怀。李纨一气儿混搜。探春嗔着李纨道：“大嫂子，你也学那起不成材料的样子来了。那个人既偷了去还肯藏在身上？况且这件东西，在家里是宝，到了外头不知道的是废物，偷他做什么？我想来必是有人使促狭。”众人听说，又见环儿不在这里，昨儿是他满屋里乱跑，都疑到他身上，只是不肯说出来。
"That's an idea, "they agreed." With such a crowd of us here we're a mixed lot, and this would be a way to clear ourselves."
Only Seeking Spring made no comment.
As the maids also wanted to clear themselves of suspicion, Pinger volunteered to be the first to be searched. Then the others stripped too, and Li Wan searched them in turn.
"Sister-in-law!?"snapped Seeking Spring. "Where did you learn to behave in this scandalous way? If anyone stole it she wouldn't keep it on her, would she? Besides, this jade may be treasured here but to outsiders not in the know it's quite useless, so why should anyone steal it? I'm sure that someone is up to monkey tricks."
When they heard this and noticed Huan's absence— though earlier on he had been running all over the place— they suspected him but were unwilling to say so.

探春又道：“使促狭的只有环儿。你们叫个人去悄悄的叫了他来，背地里哄着他，叫他拿出来，然后吓着他，叫他不要声张。这就完了。”大家点头称是。李纨便向平儿道：“这件事还是得你去才弄得明白。”平儿答应，就赶着去了。不多时，同了环儿来了。众人假意装出没事的样子，叫人沏了碗茶，搁在里间屋里。众人故意搭赸走开，原叫平儿哄他。平儿便笑着向环儿道：“你二哥哥的玉丢了，你瞧见了没有？”贾环便急得紫涨了脸，瞪着眼，说道：“人家丢了东西，你怎么又叫我来查问疑我，我是犯过案的贼么？”
"Huan's the only one who'd play such a trick," Seeking Spring continued. "Send somebody to fetch him quietly and persuade him to return it; then give him a scare to make him keep his mouth shut, and that will be that."
The others nodded approval.
Silk Plum told Patience, "You're the only one who can get the truth out of him.”
Patience agreed to try and hurried off, coming back before long with Ring Merchant. The rest pretended that nothing was amiss and told maids to serve him tea in the inner room. Then they excused themselves, leaving him to Patience.
“Your Precious Jade has lost his jade, she told him with a smile. "Have you seen it?"
Ring Merchant flushed scarlet and glared.
"When he loses something, why suspect me?" he protested. "Am I aconvicted thief?"

平儿见这样子，到不敢再问，便又陪笑道：“不是这么说。怕三爷要拿了去吓他们，所以白问问瞧见了没有，好叫他们找。”贾环道：“他的玉在他身上，看见不看见该问他，怎么问我？捧着他的人多着咧！得了什么不来问我，丢了东西就来问我！”说着，起身就走。众人不好拦他。这里宝玉倒急了，说道：“都是这劳什子闹事！我也不要他了，你们也不用闹了。环儿一去，必是嚷得满院里都知道了，这可不是闹事了么？”袭人等急得又哭道：“小祖宗，你看这玉丢了没要紧；若是上头知道了，我们这些人就要粉身碎骨了！”说着，便嚎啕大哭起来。
She explained with a smile.“I thought you might have taken it to scare them; that's why I simply asked if you'd seen it or not to help them find it." "He was the one wearing the jade so he's the one you should ask instead of me. You all make so much of him! When there's something good going,you don't ask me to share it; but when anythings lost,I'm the one you ask about it!" He got up and marched out and they could not stop him. "All this trouble's due to that silly thing! " burst out Precious Jade. "I don't want it,so you needn't make such a fuss. When Ring gets back,he's bound to tell everyone and raise a fearful rumpus." Weeping in desperation,Aroma said,"You may not care that the jade's lost,Little Ancestor,but if this comes to the mistresses'ears,it'll be the death of us!" She broke down and sobbed.

众人更加伤感，明知此事掩饰不来，只得要商议定了话，回来好回贾母诸人。宝玉道：“你们竟也不用商议，硬说我砸了就完了。”平儿道：“我的爷，好轻巧话儿！上头要问为什么砸的呢？他们也是个死啊！倘或要起砸破的碴儿来，那又怎么样呢？”宝玉道：“不然，便说我前日出门丢了。”众人一想，这句话倒还混得过去，但只这两天又没上学，又没往别处去。宝玉道：“怎么没有？大前儿还到南安王府里听戏去了呢。便说那日丢的。”探春道：“那也不妥。既是前儿丢的，为什么当日不来回。”

It soon became clear to them all that things could not be hushed up for much longer. They would have to agree on a story to tell Grandmother Jia and the other ladies. ‘That’s easy,’ said Bao-yu. ‘Just tell them I smashed it myself.’‘No no! That’s no good!’ said Patience. ‘Can’t you see?They’ll want to know why you smashed it, and then things will look just as black for Aroma and the others. And besides, what if they want to see the pieces?’ ‘Well then, say I lost it on a trip to town.’ There was a moment’s silence as they all pondered this suggestion. ‘We might possibly have got away with that,’ said someone at last. ‘But during the past few days you haven’t been to school, and you haven’t been out anywhere either.’‘Yes I have,’ Bao-yu corrected them. ‘A few days ago I went to the Earl of Lin-an’s to watch the plays. You can say I lost it then.’‘No, that won’t do,’ said Tan-chun. ‘If you lost it as long ago as that, they’ll want to know why it hasn’t been reported till now.’

众人正在胡思乱想要装点撒谎，只听得赵姨娘的声儿，哭着喊着走来，说：“你们丢了东西，自己不找，怎么叫人背地里拷问环儿！我把环儿带了来，索性交给你们这一起洑上水的。该杀该剐，随你们罢。”说着，将环儿一推说：“你是个贼，快快的招罢！”气得环儿也哭喊起来。李纨正要劝解，丫头来说：“太太来了。”袭人等此时无地可容。宝玉等赶忙出来迎接。赵姨娘暂且也不敢作声，跟了出来。王夫人见众人都有惊惶之色，才信方才听见的话，便道：“那块玉真丢了么？”众人都不敢作声。

They were still busy discussing the relative merits of these various fictions when suddenly they heard the voice of Aunt Zhao, cursing and wailing her way towards them.‘If you lose something, why can’t you look for it yourselves, instead of sneaking up and blaming my boy? Well, here he is! Take him! Sacrifice him if you think it will do you any good! Kill him! Hack him to pieces! Do what you like with him!’ She propelled Jia Huan into the room, c’rying:‘Thief! Hurry up and confess your crime!’This brought loud and angry protestations from Huan. Li Wan was just bracing herself to intervene and make the peace when a maid came rushing in and announced:‘Her Ladyship is here!’Aroma and the maids could see that a confrontation was now inevitable. Bao-yu and the girls went out at once to receive Lady Wang. Aunt Zhao’s wrath subsided for a moment and she followed them out. From the startled look on their faces Lady Wang could see that what she had heard must be true.‘Is it really lost?’ she cried. No one dared reply.

王夫人走进屋里坐下，便叫袭人，慌得袭人连忙跪下，含泪要禀。王夫人道：“你起来，快快叫人细细找去，一忙乱倒不好了。”袭人哽咽难言。宝玉生恐袭人直告诉出来，便说道：“太太，这事不与袭人相干，是我前日到南安王府那里听戏在路上丢了。”王夫人道：“为什么那日不找？”宝玉道：“我怕他们知道，没有告诉他们。我叫焙茗等在外头各处找过的。”王夫人道：“胡说！如今脱换衣服，不是袭人他们伏侍的么？大凡哥儿出门回来，手巾荷包短了，还要问个明白，何况这块玉不见了，便不问的么？”宝玉无言可答。

Lady Wang walked in, sat down and called Aroma forward. Aroma fell trembling to her knees. In a choked voice she murmured ‘Yes.’ ‘Well, get up!’ said Lady Wang. ‘We must have a thorough search made. Come on, this helpless attitude will never do.’ Aroma was sobbing and could not say a word. Precious Jade finally spoke up, fearful that she might blurt out the truth. ‘Mother, this has nothing to do with Aroma. I lost it the other day on my way back from seeing the plays at the Earl of Lin-an’s.’ ‘Then why didn’t you look for it at the time?’ ‘I didn’t want anyone to know. I just told Tealeaf to look for it everywhere along the street.’ ‘Nonsense! You know perfectly well that Aroma or one of your other maids would have noticed. That’s their job. They are always with you when you change. Whenever you come in from a party or any kind of excursion, if one of your handkerchiefs is missing, or a little purse, they’re bound to ask you where it’s gone do you really think that they would allow something as irreplaceable as your jade to disappear, and not say a word?’ Precious Jade was stumped for an answer.

赵姨娘听见，便得意了，忙接过口道：“外头丢了东西，也赖环儿……”话未说完，被王夫人喝道：“这里说这个，你且说那些没要紧的话！”赵姨娘便不敢言语了。还是李纨探春从实的告诉了王夫人一遍。王夫人也急得泪如雨下，索性要回明贾母，去问邢夫人那边跟来的这些人去。凤姐病中，也听见宝玉失玉，知道王夫人过来，料躲不住，便扶了丰儿来到园里。正值王夫人起身要走，凤姐娇怯怯的说：“请太太安。”宝玉等过来问了凤姐好。王夫人因说道：“你也听见了么？这可不是奇事吗？刚才眼错不见就丢了，再找不着。

Aunt Zhao, who was gloating over his discomfiture, hastened to put in: “If you're so sure you lost it outside, why try to pin the blame on Huan?” “That's enough from you!” said Lady Wang sharply. “You keep out of this!” It was Li Wan Tanchun who told Mrs. Wang the truth. Mrs. Wang was so worried that she burst into tears that she simply asked Mrs. Xing to go back to the Ming Dynasty and ask these people who Mrs. Xing followed. The news had meanwhile reached Xi-feng on her sickbed. #2 When she heard that Lady Wang had arrived at Green Delights she felt obliged to put in an appearance and, leaning on Felicity's arm, made her way towards the Garden. She arrived just as Lady Wang was about to leave. “Good evening, Aunt.” Xi-feng's voice trembled slightly as she spoke. Bao-yu and the others came up to greet her. “So you've heard the news too!” said Lady Wang to Xifeng. “ “Isn't it odd? It vanished just like that, and can't be found anywhere.”

Revision:
When Aunt Zhao heard this, she was very pleased. She quickly took it up and said, "I have lost something outside, but I have to rely on huan'er..." before she finished, Mrs. Wang shouted, "let's talk about this here. Let's talk about what doesn't matter!" Aunt Zhao dared not speak. It was Li Wan Tanchun who told Mrs. Wang the truth. Mrs. Wang was so worried that she burst into tears that she simply asked Mrs. Xing to go back to the Ming Dynasty and ask these people who Mrs. Xing followed. When Sister Feng was ill, she also heard that Baoyu had lost her jade. Knowing that Mrs. Wang was coming, she could not hide, so she helped feng'er to the garden. Just as Mrs. Wang got up to leave, Sister Feng said timidly, "please have a nice day, madam." Baoyu came to ask Sister Feng how she was. Mrs. Wang said, "did you hear that, too? Isn't this a miracle? I lost my eye just now and couldn't find it again.--[[User:Li Lifei|Li Lifei]] ([[User talk:Li Lifei|talk]]) 02:26, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

你去想想：打老太太那边丫头起，至你们平儿，谁的手不稳，谁的心促狭；我要回了老太太，认真的查出来才好。不然，是断了宝玉的命根子了。”凤姐回道：“咱们家人多手杂，自古说的，‘知人知面不知心’，那里保得住谁是好的？但是一吵嚷，已经都知道了，偷玉的人，若叫太太查出来，明知是死无葬身之地，他着了急，反要毁坏了灭口，那时可怎么处呢？据我的糊涂想头，只说宝玉本不爱他，撂丢了，也没有什么要紧，只要大家严密些，别叫老太太老爷知道；这么说了，暗暗的派人去各处察访，哄骗出来，那时玉也可得，罪名也好定：不知太太心里怎么样？”

Think about it: from hitting the girl on the old lady's side, to your level, whose hand is unstable and whose heart is narrow; I have to go back to the old lady and find out carefully. Otherwise, it will be the lifeblood of Baoyu. " Sister Feng replied: "Our family has a lot of hands. It has been said since ancient times that 'knowing people knows their faces but not their hearts'. Who can be protected there? But we all know when we make a noise. If the man who stole the jade asks his wife to find out that he knows there is no place to bury, he is in a hurry and wants to destroy his mouth. According to my confused thinking, it doesn't matter if Baoyu didn't love him and lost him. As long as we are more strict, don't call him the old lady The master knows; Having said that, he secretly sent people to investigate everywhere and cajoled them out. At that time, Yu could also get the blame, and the crime could be decided: I don't know what's in his wife's heart? "

王夫人迟了半日，才说道：“你这话虽也有理，但只是老爷跟前怎么瞒的过呢？”便叫环儿过来道：“你二哥哥的玉丢了，白问了你一句，怎么你就乱嚷？若是嚷破了，人家把那个毁坏了，我看你活得活不得！”贾环吓得哭道：“我再不敢嚷了。”赵姨娘听了，那里还敢言语。王夫人便吩咐众人道：“想来自然有没找到的地方儿。好端端的在家里的，还怕他飞到那里去不成？只是不许声张。限袭人三天内给我找出来。要是三天找不着，只怕也瞒不住，大家那就不用过安静日子了。”说着，便叫凤姐儿跟到邢夫人那边，商议踩缉不题。

After a long pause Lady Wang replied:"It’s all very well, but will we ever succeed in keeping this from Sir Zheng?" She called Jia Huan to her. "It was very silly of you to go shouting your head off about Bao-yu’s jade, just because they asked you about it. If the thief has heard and destroys the jade, you will pay for it with your life!" "I promise never to mention it again!" wailed Jia Huan in terror. This time Aunt Zhao held her tongue. "There must be some places left where you haven’t looked," Lady Wang continued, addressing the assembled maids. "It must be somewhere here. It’s hardly going to fly away, is it? But when you look, be as quiet as possible. Aroma, I give you three days to find it. If we still haven’t found it by then, we shan’t be able to keep it from Her Old Ladyship and Sir Zheng any longer. And everyone knows what that will mean!" Bidding Xi-feng accompany her, Lady Wang set off for Lady Xing’s apartment, for further consultations on how to apprehend the thief.

这里李纨等纷纷议论，便传唤看园子的一干人来，叫把园门锁上，快传林之孝家的来，悄悄儿的告诉了他，叫他：“吩咐前后门上，三天之内，不论男女下人，从里头可以走动，要出时，一概去不许放出。只说里头丢了东西，待这件东西有了着落，然后放人出来。”林之孝家的答应了“是”，因说：“前儿奴才家里也丢了一件不要紧的东西，林之孝必要明白，上街去找了一个测字的。那人叫做什么刘铁嘴，测了一个字，说的狠明白，回来依旧一找，便找着了。”袭人听见，便央及林家的道：“好林奶奶！出去快求林大爷替我们问问去。”那林之孝家的答应着出去了。

Li Wan and the others continued to debate what to do. They sent for the various domestics in charge of the Garden and gave orders for the gates to be securely locked. Steward Lin’s wife was also summoned and given confidential instructions. ‘Tell the servants on both gates that absolutely no one is to be allowed out of the Garden for the next three days. We can allow freedom of movement within the Garden, but no one must leave. Say that something has been lost and that no one can go out until it’s found.’ ‘Yes, Mrs Zhu,’ said Lin’s wife. ‘Excuse me, ma’am,’ she went on, ‘but we lost something at home the other day - nothing of any value of course, but my husband was determined to find it, and he went and consulted one of those word-diviners that set themselves up at street corners. Iron Mouth Liu I think this one’s name was. His reading was very clear. My husband followed his instructions, and found the missing item straight away.’ When Aroma heard this she begged her to help them. ‘Oh, Mrs Lin! Please go and ask your husband to consult this man for us!’ ‘Indeed I will. Straight away. Lin’s wife bustled off. Xing Xiu-yan now had a suggestion to make.

邢岫烟道：“若说那外头测字打卦的，是不中用的。我在南边闻妙玉能扶乩，何不烦他问一问？况且我听见说，这块玉原有仙机，想来问得出来。”众人都咤异道：“咱们常见的，从没有听他说起。”麝月便忙问岫烟道：“想来别人求他是不肯的，好姑娘，我给姑娘磕个头，求姑娘就去，若问出来了，我一辈子总不忘你的恩！”说着，赶忙就要磕下头去，岫烟连忙拦住。黛玉等也都怂恿着岫烟速往栊翠庵去。一面林之孝家的进来说道：“姑娘们大喜！林之孝测了字回来，说这玉是丢不了的，将来横竖有人送还来的。”众人听了，也都半信半疑。惟有袭人麝月喜欢的了不得。
‘If you ask me, those word-diviners and fortune-tellers you find on street corners are all charlatans. But when I knew Adamantina, in the South, before she came to live here, I heard of her gift for the planchette. Why don’t we ask her to hold a séance for us? Didn’t .Bao-yu’s jade have a mysterious origin
anyway? It would surely lend itself to that sort of approach.’ The others seemed greatly surprised to hear this, and reflected that in all the time they had known her, Adamantma had never once mentioned such a gift. Musk earnestly beseeched Xiu-yan: ‘Oh, Miss! I don’t think she would agree to do it for
anyone but you! Please, please, will you ask her for us? I’ll kotow to you - if she finds the answer, I’ll be indebted to you for a lifetime!’She was about to perform a kotow, but Xiu-yan raised her from the ground. Dai-yu and the others added their entreaties to Musk’s, and Xiu-yan left with all speed for Green Bower Hermitage. No sooner had she gone, than Steward Lin’s wife returned from her mission. ‘Ladies!’ she announced with great jubilation. ‘I bring good news! My husband has been to see the man~ and he says the jade is sure to turn up. Someone will definitely bring it back.’ She had yet to convince her audience however - except for Aroma and Musk, who were ready to grasp at the slightest hope.

探春便问：“测的是什么字？”林之孝家的道：“他的话多，奴才也学不上来，记得是拈了个赏人东西的‘赏’字。那刘铁嘴也不问，便说：‘丢了东西不是？’“李纨道：“这就算好。”林之孝家的道：“他还说：‘“赏”字上头一个“小”字，底下一个“口”字，这件东西，狠可嘴里放得，必是个珠子宝石。’”众人听了，夸赞道：“真是神仙！往下怎么说？”林之孝家的道：“他说：‘底下“贝”字拆开，不成一个“见”字，可不是“不见”了？’因上头拆了‘当’字，叫快到当铺里找去。‘“赏”字加一“人”字，可不是“偿”字？只要找着当铺就有人，有了人便赎了来，可不是偿还了吗。’”

“What character did he analyze?” Seeking-Spring Merchant asked. “He said a lot, but it is too much for me to repeat,” answered Filial Piety Forest's Wife. “I remember that the character he picked was Shang meaning ‘gift.’ Then, without asking any question, Iron Mouth Liu said, “You’ve lost something, I take it.” “A good guess!” Silk Plum exclaimed. Filial Piety Forest's Wife continued, “He said the upper part of the character is the xiao for ‘small’ with the Kou for ‘mouth’ below. Therefore, the thing should be small enough to put in the mouth and must be some sort of jewel.” “That’s really miraculous!” they cried. “What else did he say?” “The lower half of the character was a stroke or two short of Jian meaning ‘see’, so the object must have disappeared from sight. And as the top half was the same as in dang for ‘pawn’, we should look for the missing object in a pawnshop. When we add ren, a ‘man,’ to Shang, it gives Chang meaning to ‘redeem’. So once we hit on the right pawn shop, we’ll find whoever pawned it and then we can redeem it.”

众人道：“既这么着，就先往左近找起。横竖几个当铺都找遍了，少不得就有了。咱们有了东西，再问人就容易了。”李纨道：“只要东西，那怕不问人都使得。林嫂子，烦你就把测字的话快去告诉二奶奶，回了太太，先叫太太放心。就叫二奶奶快派人查去。”林家的答应了便走。众人略安了一点儿神，呆呆的等岫烟回来。正呆等，只见跟宝玉的焙茗在门外招手儿，叫小丫头子快出来。那小丫头赶忙的出去了。焙茗便说道：“你快进去告诉我们二爷和里头太太、奶奶、姑娘们，天大喜事。”那小丫头子道：“你快说罢，怎么这么累赘？”

“In that case,”said the others, “let’s first look near by. If we search the neighbourhood pawnshops we’re bound to find it. Once we have the jade, it’ll be easy to question the thief.” “Provided we get the jade back, it doesn’t matter whether we question the thief or not,” was Silk Plum’s opinion. “Please go right away, Mrs. Forest, to tell Madam Lian what the fortune-teller says, and report it to Her Ladyship too so that she can stop worrying. Then ask Madam Lian to send men to investigate.” Filial Piety Forest's Wife went off on this errand. Feeling a little more reassured, they were waiting blankly for Cave Cloud Marshgrass’s return when they saw Precious Jade’s page Beiming beckoning outside the door to a young maid. The girl at once went out. “Wonderful news!” he told her. “Hurry up and tell our Master Bao and all the ladies inside.” “Tell me what it is, quick!” she retorted. “Don’t drag it out.”

Beiming clapped his hands, chuckling. “When I’ve told you, miss, and you go in and pass on the news, we’ll both of us get tipped. Can you guess what’s happened? I’ve got definite news about Master Bao’s jade.” After hearing from Beiming that the jade had been found, the young maid hurried in to report this to Baoyu. The others all urged him to go out to question his page, and stepped into the corridor themselves to listen. Feeling reassured, Baoyu went to the door and asked:“Where did you find it? Bring it here at once.” “I can’t do that,” said Beiming, “till we’ve found a guarantor.”“Tell me where it is then, and I’ll send someone to get it.” “When I learned outside that Mr. Lin was going to consult a fortuneteller, I followed him. Then, hearing that it could be found in a pawnshop, without waiting for him to finish I rushed over to several pawnshops and gave them a description of the jade, and one shop said they’d got it.

我说：‘给我罢。’那铺子里要票子。我说：‘当多少钱？’他说：‘三百钱的也有，五百钱的也有。前儿有一个人拿这么一块玉，当了三百钱去；今儿又有人也拿了一块玉，当了五百钱去。’”宝玉不等说完，便道：“你快拿三百五百钱去取了来，我们挑着看是不是。”里头袭人便啐道：“二爷不用理他！我小时候儿听见我哥哥常说，有些人卖那些小玉儿，没钱用，便去当。想来是家家当铺里有的。”众人正在听得咤异，被袭人一说，想了一想，倒大家笑起来，说：“快叫二爷进来罢，不用理那糊涂东西了。他说的那些玉，想来不是正经东西。”宝玉正笑着，只见岫烟来了。

When I asked for it, though, they wanted the pawn-ticket. ‘How much was it hocked for?’ I asked. They said, ‘We give from three hundred to five hundred cash. The other day someone brought in a jade like that and pawned it for three hundred. Today another man came with a piece and pawned it for five hundred.”’Baoyu cut him short with the order, “Go at once, taking money to redeem both; then we’ll see whether one is the right piece or not.”“Don’t listen to him, Master Bao!” scoffed Xiren from inside. “When I was small my brother often told me that hawkers of small pieces of jade pawn them when they need cash. Every single pawnshop must have some.”The others had been surprised by Beiming’s report. Now, thinking over Xiren’s comment, they laughed.“Tell Master Bao to come in,” they cried. “Pay no attention to that simpleton. The jade he’s talking about can’t be the right one.”Baoyu was laughing too when Xiuyan came back.

原来岫烟走到栊翠庵，见了妙玉，不及闲话，便求妙玉扶乩。妙玉冷笑几声，说道：“我与姑娘来往，为的是姑娘不是势利场中的人。今日怎么听了那里的谣言，过来缠我？况且我并不晓得什么叫‘扶乩’。”说着，将要不理。岫烟懊悔此来：知他脾气是这么着的，“一时我已说出，不好白回去。”又不好与他质证他会扶乩的话，只得陪着笑将袭人等性命关系的话说了一遍。见妙玉略有活动，便起身拜了几拜。妙玉叹道：“何必为人作嫁？但是我进京以来，素无人知，今日你来破例，恐将来缠绕不休。”

岫烟道：“我也一时不忍。知你必是慈悲的。便是将来他人求你，愿不愿在你，谁敢相强？”妙玉笑了一笑，叫道婆焚香，在箱子里找出沙盘乩架，书了符，命岫烟行礼祝告毕，起来同妙玉扶着乩。不多时，只见那仙乩疾书道：噫！来无迹，去无踪，青埂峰下倚古松。欲追寻，山万重，入我门来一笑逢。书毕，停了乩。岫烟便问：“请是何仙？”妙玉道：“请的是拐仙。”岫烟录了出来，请教妙玉解识。妙玉道：“这个可不能，连我也不懂。你快拿去，他们的聪明人多着哩。”岫烟只得回来。进入院中，各人都问：“怎么样了？”

==日语笔译曹梦然 Cao Mengran 202170081632==

岫烟不及细说，便将所录乩语递与李纨，众姊妹及宝玉争看，都解的是：“一时要找是找不着的，然而丢是丢不了的，不知几时不找便出来了。但是青埂峰不知在那里？”李纨道：“这是仙机隐语。咱们家里那里跑出青埂峰来？必是谁怕查出，撂在有松树的山子石底下，也未可定。独是‘入我门来’这句，到底是入谁的门呢？”黛玉道：“不知请的是谁？”岫烟道：“拐仙。”探春道：“若是仙家的门，便难入了。”袭人心里着忙，便捕风捉影的混找，没一块石底下不找到，只是没有。回到院中，宝玉也不问有无，只管傻笑。

Xiuyan went back, and as soon as she entered the courtyard the others all wanted to know how she had fared. Without giving them the details, she handed Silk Plum the oracle she had transcribed. The girls and Precious Jade crowded round to read it and took it to mean that the jade could not be found quickly, but it would turn up some time when they were not looking. “But where is this Blue Ridge Peak?” they asked. “That must be some divine riddle,” said Silk Plum. “We’ve no such peak here, have we? I expect the thief has thrown it under some rockery with pine trees on it, for fear of detection. But it says ‘entering my gate’— whose gate would that be?” Mascara Jade remarked, “I wonder whom she invoked.” “Saint Li the Cripple,” Xiuyan told her. “If it’s an immortal’s gate, that won’t be easy to enter!” exclaimed seeking-spring. Xiren hunted frantically round, clutching at shadows and searching under each rock, but there was no trace of the jade.

Maybe it’s be¬cause of me that this match between gold and jade has been broken up.--[[User:Zhang Bailu|Zhang Bailu]] ([[User talk:Zhang Bailu|talk]]) 14:38, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

想了半天，更觉安心，把这一天的劳乏，竟不理会，重新倒看起书来。紫鹃倒觉身倦，连催黛玉睡下。黛玉虽躺下，又想到海棠花上，说“这块玉原是胎里带来的，非比寻常之物，来去自有关系。若是这花主好事呢，不该失了这玉呀。看来此花开的不祥，莫非他有不吉之事？”不觉又伤起心来。又转想到喜事上头，此花又似应开，此玉又似应失；如此一悲一喜，直想到五更方睡着。次日，王夫人等早派人到当铺里去查问，凤姐暗中设法找寻。一连闹了几天，总无下落。还喜贾母贾政未知。袭人等每日提心吊胆。宝玉也好几天不上学，只是怔怔的，不言不语，没心没绪的。

Consoled by these reflections, she forgot the fatigues of the day and started reading again, till Purple Gauze who was worn out urged her to sleep. But although she lay down her thoughts turned to the crab-apple trees. “He was born with that jade; it’s no ordinary stone,” she mused. “So its disappearance must have some significance. If the blossoming of the crab-apples was a good omen, he shouldn’t have lost the jade. It looks as if the blossoming was an ill omen and he’s in for a spell of bad luck.” Her spirits sank again till she thought of her marriage, when it seemed right for the trees to have blossomed and for the jade to be lost. In this way, sad and happy by turns, she did not fall asleep till dawn.Early the next day, Lady King sent to make inquiries at various pawnshops, and Splendid Phoenix King also had a search made in secret. This went on for several days, but to no effect. Luckily the Grandma Merchant and Master Merchant did not know this. Aroma and the other maids were on tenterhooks every day, while Precious Jade Merchant stayed away from school looking dazed and dejected.

王夫人只知他因失玉而起，也不大着意。那日正在纳闷，忽见贾琏进来请安，嘻嘻的笑道：“今日听得军机贾雨村打发人来告诉二老爷，说：‘舅太爷升了内阁大学士，奉旨来京，已定明年正月二十日宣麻，有三百里的文书去了。’想舅太爷昼夜趱行，半个多月就要到了。侄儿特来回太太知道。”王夫人听说，便欢喜非常。正想娘家人少，薛姨妈家又衰败了；兄弟又在外任，照应不着。今日忽听兄弟拜相回京，王家荣耀，将来宝玉都有倚靠。便把失玉的心又略放开些了，天天专望兄弟来京。忽一天，贾政进来，满脸泪痕，喘吁吁的说道：

His mother did not take this to heart, attributing it to the loss of his jade.She was brooding one day when, abruptly, Romance Merchant came in to pay his respects.Beaming, he announced, “I’ve just heard that Rainvillage Merchant has sent word to the Second Master that your honourable brother has been promoted to the post of Grand Secretary and summoned to the capital. His appointment is to be proclaimed on the twentieth of the first month next year, and a dispatch has been sent to his post three hundred ii away. I expect he’s on his way now, travelling day and night, and will be here in little more than a fortnight. So I’ve come specially to report this to you, madam.
Lady Wang was overjoyed. She had been regretting that so few of her family were left and Aunt Marshgrass’s family had declined, while her brother serving in the provinces could not look after them. His return to the capital now as Grand Secretary would exalt the Wang family and give Precious Jade Merchant someone to rely on in future. She stopped worrying so much about the loss of the jade, looking forward every day to her brother’s arrival.
Then one day Master Merchant burst in, tears streaming down his cheeks.

“你快去禀知老太太，即刻进宫！不用多人的，是你伏侍进去。因娘娘忽得暴病，现在太监在外立等。他说：‘太医院已经奏明痰厥，不能医治。’”王夫人听说，便大哭起来。贾政道：“这不是哭的时候，快快去请老太太。说得宽缓些，不要吓坏了老人家。”贾政说着，出来吩咐家人伺候。王夫人收了泪，去请贾母，只说元妃有病，进去请安。贾母念佛道：“怎么又病了？前番吓的我了不得，后来又打听错了。这回情愿再错了也罢。”王夫人一面回答，一面催鸳鸯等开箱取衣饰穿戴起来。王夫人赶着回到自己房中也穿戴好了，过来伺候。一时出厅，上轿进宫不题。

"Go to the old lady and enter the palace at once!" It doesn't take many people, it's you who ambush in. Because Princess Merchant suddenly fell ill violently, the eunuch is now waiting outside. He said: 'The hospital has made it clear that it cannot be cured.' When Lady King heard this, she burst into tears. Master Merchant said, "This is not the time to cry, go and ask the old lady quickly." Speak more gently, don't frighten the old man. Master Merchant said, and came out to order his family to serve. Lady King collected her tears and went to ask Grandma Merchant, only to say that Princess Merchant was ill and went in to ask for peace. Grandma Merchant chanted the Buddha, "Why are you sick again?" I was terrified of it before, and then I was wrong. This time I'm willing to be wrong. Lady King replied while urging mandarin ducks to open the box and take clothes and put them on. Lady King hurried back to her room and dressed herself, and came to serve. When I went out of the hall for a while, I went to the palace and entered the palace without a title.

且说元春自选了凤藻宫后，圣眷隆重，身体发福，未免举动费力。每日起居劳乏，时发痰疾。因前日侍宴回宫，偶沾寒气，勾起旧病。不料此回甚属利害，竟至痰气壅塞，四肢厥冷。一面奏明，即召太医调治。岂知汤药不进，连用通关之剂，并不见效。内官忧虑，奏请预办后事，所以传旨命贾氏椒房进见。贾母王夫人遵旨进宫，见元妃痰塞口涎，不能言语。见了贾母，只有悲泣之状，却少眼泪。贾母进前请安，奏些宽慰的话。少时贾政等职名递进，宫嫔传奏，元妃目不能顾，渐渐脸色改变。内宫太监即要奏闻，恐派各妃看视，椒房姻戚未便久羁，请在外宫伺候。

Let's say that since the election of the fengzao palace, the holy family members have been ceremonious and have gained weight. It's hard to move. Daily life fatigue, sometimes phlegm disease. I came back to the palace from the banquet the day before yesterday, and I got cold and started an old illness. Unexpectedly, this time it was very dangerous. It was so bad that the phlegm was blocked and the limbs were cold. On the other hand, the doctor will be called for treatment. I didn't know that the soup and medicine were not available. Even the customs clearance agent was not effective. The internal officer was worried, so he ordered Jia's pepper room to see him. Grandma merchant entered the palace according to his order. When he saw that congubine yuan was salivating and unable to speak. When I met grandma merchant, I was only sad but had few tears. Grandma merchant goes in to say hello and say a few words of comfort. When he was young, the title of master merchant was gradually advanced, and the palace concubines played, but the eyes of concubine yuan could not care, and his face gradually changed. The eunuch in the inner palace is about to hear about it. He is afraid that he will send his concubines to watch him. The marriage of pepper house has been detained for a long time. Please serve him in the outer palace.

贾母王夫人怎忍便离，无奈国家制度，只得下来，又不敢啼哭，惟有心内悲感。朝门内官员有信。不多时，只见太监出来，立传钦天监。贾母便知不好，尚未敢动。稍刻，小太监传谕出来，说：“贾娘娘薨逝。”是年甲寅年十二月十八日立春；元妃薨日，是十二月十九日，已交卯年寅月，存年四十三岁。贾母含悲起身，只得出宫上轿回家。贾政等亦已得信，一路悲戚。到家中，邢夫人、李纨、凤姐、宝玉等出厅，分东西迎着贾母，请了安，并贾政王夫人请安，大家哭泣不题。次日早起，凡有品级的，按贵妃丧礼进内请安哭临。

Grandma Merchant and Lady King could not bear to leave, but had no choice but to come down from the state system. She did not dare to cry, but she felt sad inside. The official inside the door has a letter. Before long, the eunuch came out to preach The Imperial Board of Astronomy. Grandma Merchant knew it was not good and had not dared to move. A moment later, the little eunuch sent an oracle, saying: "Empress died." It is December 18, the beginning of spring; Concubine Yuan died and died on December 19. He was forty-three years old. Grandma Merchant sad up, only the palace on the sedan home. Master Merchant and so on have also got the letter, all the way sad. When they got home, Lady City, Silk Plum, Splendid Phoenix King, Precious Jade Merchant went out to greet Grandma Merchant with their belongings and pay their respects to Master Merchant and Lady King. Early the next morning, all who have grade, according to the funeral ceremony of the imperial concubine into the room to ask for peace and cry.

贾政又是工部，虽按照仪注办理，未免堂上又要周旋他些，同事又要请教他，所以两头更忙，非比从前太后与周妃的丧事了。但元妃并无所出，惟谥曰贤淑贵妃。此是王家制度，不必多赘。只讲贾府中男女，天天进宫，忙的了不得。幸喜凤姐儿近日身子好些，还得出来照应家事；又要预备王子腾进京，接风贺喜。凤姐胞兄王仁，知道叔叔入了内阁，仍带家眷来京。凤姐心里喜欢，便有些心病，有这些娘家的人，也便撂开，所以身子倒觉比前好了些。王夫人看见凤姐照旧办事，又把担子卸了一半；又眼见兄弟来京，诸事放心，倒觉安静些。

Master Merchant is also in the Ministry of Works. Although it was handled by the ceremonies, it was necessary to deal with him in the court, and his colleagues had to ask him for advice, so the two sides were busier, not compared with the funeral of the Queen Mother and Concubine Zhou in the past. But Concubine Yuan did not come out, but she was given the posthumous title of Concubine Xianshu. This is the royal family system, so there is no need to repeat it. It only talks about men and women in Merchant's house, who go to the palace every day and are very busy. Fortunately, Sister Phoenix is in better health recently, and she has to come out to take care of the housework. She also has to prepare Soar King to come to Beijing to welcome the wind and congratulate her. Sister Phoenix's elder brother Wang Ren brought his family to Beijing when he knew that his uncle had joined the cabinet. Sister Phoenix liked it in her heart, and she felt a little sick. She also gave up with these family members, so her body felt better than before. Lady King saw that Sister Phoenix was doing things as usual, and half of the burden was unloaded; and when she saw her brother come to Beijing, everything was relieved, and she felt quieter.--[[User:AkiraJantarat|AkiraJantarat]] ([[User talk:AkiraJantarat|talk]]) 06:26, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

独有宝玉原是无职之人，又不念书，代儒学里知他家里有事，也不来管他；贾政正忙，自然没有空儿查他：想来宝玉趁此机会竟可与姊妹们天天畅乐。不料他自失了玉后，终日懒怠走动，说话也糊涂了。并贾母等出门回来，有人叫他去请安，便去；没人叫他，他也不动。袭人等怀着鬼胎，又不敢去招惹他，恐他生气。每天茶饭，端到面前便吃，不来也不要。袭人看这光景，不像是有气，竟像是有病的。袭人偷着空儿到潇湘馆告诉紫鹃，说是：“二爷这么着，求姑娘给他开导开导。”

Unique Precious Jade was a jobless person and didn't study. Confucianism knew that he had something to do at home, so he didn't care about him; Master Merchant was busy and naturally didn't have time to check him: I wanted to come to Precious Jade to take this opportunity to meet him. Sisters are happy every day. Unexpectedly, after he lost his jade, he walked around lazy all day, and his speech was confused. And when Grandma Merchant came back from going out, someone called him to greet him, so he went; no one called him, and he didn't move. Aroma and others were pregnant, but they didn't dare to provoke him, for fear that he would get angry. Everyday tea and rice, bring it to the front and eat it, don't come if you don't come. Aroma looked at this scene, and it didn't look like she was angry, but she looked like she was sick. Aroma stole the air to Bamboo Lodge and told Nightingale, saying, "Second Master is like this, I beg the girl to enlighten him."

Alone Precious Jade was not taking a government post, and didn't study, either, and Confucianism knew that there had been something sad with his family, so he didn't bother him; Master Merchant was so busy that he really had no time to push his son. It was expected that, therefore, Precious Jade could have seized this opportunity to play with his sisters every day. Unexpectedly, after he lost his jade, he was reduced to laziness all day and never meant to look for their accompany, and even said something confusing. And when Grandma Merchant came back from going out, he was asked to greet his grandma, so he went; he didn’t move when not being asked. Aroma and others were kept secrets and thus didn't dare to provoke him, for fear that he would get angry. For daily meals, he had it when sent before him, and didn’t ask if not being sent here. Seeing this situation, Aroma supposed that Precious Jade seemed not to be angry but sick, so she took the free time to Bamboo Lodge and told Nightingale, “Second Master has been so depressed lately, and he needs the comfort from your lady.”

紫鹃虽即告诉黛玉，只因黛玉想着亲事上头，一定是自己了，如今见了他，反觉不好意思，“若是他来呢，原是小时在一处的，也难不理他；若说我去找他，断断使不得。”所以黛玉不肯过来。袭人又背地里去告诉探春。那知探春心里明明知道海棠开得怪异，“宝玉”失的更奇，接连着元妃姐姐薨逝，谅家道不祥，日日愁闷，那有心肠去劝宝玉？况兄妹们男女有别，只好过来一两次，宝玉又终是懒懒的，所以也不大常来。宝钗也知失玉。因薛姨妈那日应了宝玉的亲事，回去便告诉了宝钗。薛姨妈还说：“虽是你姨妈说了，我还没有应准，说等你哥哥回来再定。你愿意不愿意？”

Finally the author puts forward feasible strategies and schemes to promote the foreign translation of Chinese cultural classics, so as to provide reference and guidance for the translation of Chinese cultural classics in the future.

四人道：“因老太太当作宝贝一样，他又生得白，老太太便叫作‘宝玉’。”贾母笑向李纨道：“偏也叫个‘宝玉’！”李纨等忙欠身笑道：“从古至今，同时隔代，重名的很多。”四人也笑道：“起了这小名儿之后，我们上下都疑惑，不知那位亲友家也倒是曾有一个的，只是这十来年没进京来，却记不得真了。”贾母笑道：“那就是我的孙子。人来！”众媳妇丫头答应了一声，走近几步。贾母笑道：“园里把咱们的宝玉叫了来，给这四个管家娘子瞧瞧，比他们的宝玉如何？”

“Precious so much as our old lady towards her grandson, who has the apple-blossom coloring just like a jade, so she gave him the name ‘Precious Jade’,” answered they. Grandma Merchant smiled at Silk Plum, “There should be another ‘Precious Jade’. What a coincidence!” “From ancient times to the present, many people of the same period but different generations are getting the same name. It is normal to see.” Silk Plum and the rest raised slightly and comforted, when the four women joined the topic, “We also wondered if there was also another ‘Precious Jade’ of some relative after his pet name was given. But we failed to remember it clearly because we hadn’t come into the capital for a decade.” “That relative is no other but my grandson. Is there some messenger?” The grandma asked. The wives and maids promised and stepped up. “You go to ask Precious Jade to come here for these four mistresses to have a look. To look compared with theirs, how our ‘Precious Jade’ is,” Grandma Merchant beamed.

But we failed to remember it clearly because we hadn’t come into the capital for a decade.” “That relative is no other but my grandson. Is there some messenger?” The grandma asked.

众媳妇听了，忙去了，半刻，围了宝玉进来。四人一见，忙起身笑道：“唬了我们一跳！若是我们不进府来，倘若别处遇见，还只当是我们的宝玉后赶着也进了京呢！”一面说，一面都上来拉他的手，问长问短。宝玉也笑问个好。贾母笑道：“比你们的长的如何？”李纨等笑道：“四位妈妈才一说，可知是模样相仿了。”贾母笑道：“那有这样巧事？大家子孩子们，再养得娇嫩，除了脸上有残疾十分丑的，大概看去都是一样齐整。这也没有什么怪处。”四人笑道：“如今看来，模样是一样！

The maids went away, returning together with Precious Jade, at sight of whom the four women rose to their feet. "Well, this is really a surprise for us!" they laughed. "If we’d met him somewhere excluding here, we’d have thought our Precious Jade had followed us to the capital." They came to Precious Jade, who extended his greeting with a smile, and taking his hand they asked him a succession of questions. "How does he compare with your boy?" inquired the Grandma Merchant. "In line with what the four nannies just said, these two must be rather alike in appearance," said Silk Plum. "That’s not a coincidence," Grandma Merchant amused, "If they had no disease causing disfigurements, the doted sons of great houses all look rather handsome. There’s definitely nothing strange at all." "They’re the mirror of each other," declared the four women.

据老太太说，淘气也一样；我们看来，这位哥儿，性情却比我们的好些。”贾母忙问：“怎见得？”四人笑道：“方才我们拉哥儿的手说话，便知道了。若是我们那一个，只说我们糊涂。慢说拉手，他的东西，我们略动一动，也不依。所使唤的人，都是女孩子们……”四人未说完，李纨姊妹等禁不住都失声笑出来。贾母也笑道：“我们这会子也打发人去见了你们宝玉，若拉他的手，他也自然勉强忍耐着。不知你我这样人家的孩子，凭他们有什么刁钻古怪的毛病，见了外人，必是要还出正经礼数来的。

‘According to what you say, both of them have been rather naughty; But your grandson seems to be the better-tempered of the two.’‘Why do you say that?’‘We found out that by holding his hands just now. Ours would have thought us silly. We're not allowed even to touch his things, let alone hold his hands. So all his maids are young girls...'This evoked laughter from Silk Plum and the girls.‘If I sent people to see Precious Jade, and if they took his hand, he’d have to put up with it too,’ chuckled the old lady. ‘No matter how perverse they may be,children from families like ours would always behave correctly to other people.'

若他不还正经礼数，也断不容他刁钻去了。就是大人溺爱的，也因为他一则生的得人意儿；二则见人礼数，竟比大人行出来的更不错，使人见了可爱可怜，背地里所以才纵他一点子。若一味他只管没里没外，不与大人争光，凭他生的怎样，也是该打死的。”四人听了，都笑说：“老太太这话正是。虽然我们宝玉淘气古怪，有时见了客，规矩礼数，比大人还有趣，所以无人见了不爱，只说：‘为什么还打他？’殊不知他在家里无法无天，大人想不到的话偏会说，想不到的事偏要行，所以老爷太太恨的无法。

If he is not decent, he will not be allowed to be unruly. Even adults dote on, but also because of his a born satisfactory son; On the other hand, he was so polite that he was even better than a big man. He was so cute and pitiful that he secretly gave him the idea. If he does not strive for glory with his elders, he should be killed according to his birth." Hearing this, all four laughed and said, "That's exactly what the old lady said. Although Precious Jade Merchant was mischievous and eccentric, sometimes he was more interesting than the adults when he met guests and behaved in a polite way, no one loved him and said, 'Why are you still beating him? 'But he was a lawless man at home, saying and doing what grown-ups could not think of, and his lordship and his wife hated him.

If he is not decent, he will not be allowed to be unruly. We dote on him for he's a lovely boy; on the other hand, he is so polite that he is even better than an adult. He was so cute that we're willing to spoiler him. If he behaves badly outside and makes us lose face , he should be beaten to death no matter how lovely he is." Hearing this, all four laughed and said, "That's exactly what you said, madam. Although Precious Jade Merchant was mischievous and eccentric, sometimes he was more interesting than the adults when he met guests and behaved in a polite way. Everyone who meet him will love him and say, 'Why are you still beating him? ', not knowing that he is a lawless boy at home, saying and doing what grown-ups could not think of. And his lordship and his mistress are always angry with what he does.

就是任性，也是小孩子的常情；胡乱花费，也是公子哥儿的常情；怕上学，也是小孩子的常情，都还治得过来。第一，天生下来这一种刁钻古怪的脾气，如何使得。”一语未完，人回：“太太回来了。”王夫人进来，问过安。他四人请了安，大概说了两句。贾母便命：“歇歇去罢。”王夫人亲捧过茶，方退出去。四人告辞了贾母，便往王夫人处来。说了一会子家务，打发他们回去，不必细说。这里贾母喜得逢人便告诉：也有一个宝玉，也都一般行景。众人都想着：天下的世宦大家，同名的这也很多，祖母溺爱孙者也是常事，不是什么罕事，皆不介意。

It is common that boys of noble families are wayward, extravagant and reluctant to go to school. All of these manners can be corrected. However, how should we do to deal with this perverse and eccentric disposition which is naturally born?" Before they finished, a man reported, "The Lady is back." Then Lady King came in and wished her mother-in-law good health. The four of them also paid their respects and they talked for a while. Then Grandma Merchant ordered, "You can go to have a rest." Lady King served the tea for Grandma Merchant and withdrew. The four took leave of the old dowager and follow Lady King to her room. After talking a little about household affairs, Lady King sent them away.It's no need going into more details. On the other hand, Grandma Merchant was happy to tell people she met: there was also a "Precious Jade" in another family who was like the one of their own. Everyone thought it not strange that there existed some namesakes in many official families who were doted by grandmother. So nobody really cared.

独宝玉是个迂阔呆公子的性情，自为是那四人承悦贾母之词；后至园中去看湘云病去，史湘云因说他：“你放心闹罢，先还‘单丝不成线，独树不成林’，如今有了个对子。闹急了，再打很了，你好逃到南京找那一个去。”宝玉道：“那里的谎话，你也信了，偏又有宝玉了？”湘云道：“怎么列国有个蔺相如，汉朝又有个司马相如呢？”宝玉笑道：“这也罢了，偏又模样儿也一样，这是没有的事！”湘云道：“怎么匡人看见孔子，只当是阳货呢？”宝玉笑道：“孔子阳贷虽同貌，却不同名，蔺与司马虽同名，而又不同貌；偏我和他就两样俱同不成？”

However, Precious Jade was a dull and precious man in position and thought what the four people said were only to please Grandma Merchant. Then he went to the park to visit Fragrant-cloud, and she said:" Now you can do whatever you want to do. Prior to this, 'one strand of silk does not make a thread, one tree does not make a forest'. But now you have a company identical to you. You can escape to Nanjing to find your company if you fight noisily." Precious Jade said:"That’s a lie and you believed in that nonsense. How could the other Precious Jade exist in the world. "Fragrant-cloud said:"How could there were Lin Xiangru in the various states or nations while Sima Xiangru in Han dynasty." Precious Jade smiled:"It’s not just the identical name but the same appearance which seems impossible!" Fragrant-cloud said:" How could people in Spring and Autumn period mistake Confucius for Yang Dai?" Precious Jade smiled:"Confucius and Yang Dai shared appearance but had different name while Lin and Sima shared the name but looked different. However I and my company shared the both."

However, Precious Jade alone was a dull and unworldly man with a silver spoon and thought what the four people said was only to please Grandma Merchant. Then he went to the garden to visit Fragrant-cloud, and she said:" Now you can do whatever you want to do. Prior to this, 'one strand of silk does not make a thread, one tree does not make a forest'. But now you have a company identical to you. You can escape to Nanjing to find your company if you fight noisily." Precious Jade retorted: "That’s a lie and you believed in that nonsense.

湘云没了话答对，因笑道：“你只会胡搅，我也不和你分证。有也罢，没也罢，与我无干。说着，便睡下了。宝玉心中便又疑惑起来：“若说必无，也似必有；若说必有，又并无目睹。”心中闷闷，回至房中榻上，默默盘算，不觉昏昏睡去，竟到一座花园之内。宝玉咤异道：“除了我们大观园，竟又有这一个园子？”正疑惑间，忽然那边来了几个女孩儿，都是丫鬟，宝玉又咤异道：“除了鸳鸯、袭人、平儿之外，也竟还有这一干人？”只见那些丫鬟笑道：“宝玉怎么跑到这里来？”

Nothing to refute, Fragrant-cloud History smiled, “You’re just behaving at random, I refuse to argue with you. Whether it’s so or not, it has nothing to do with me.” Then, she fell asleep. Precious Jade felt uncertain in mind, “I may say this can’t be, yet I feel it seemed that it’s true. Yet how can I be sure, when I haven’t seen with my own eyes?” There was a feeling of depression around him so he returned to the bed to think. Soon he dozed off and dreamed that he was in a garden. Precious Jade marveled, “Is there another garden like this except Grand View Garden?” when he was puzzled, some maids approached. He said in surprise again, “There are more girls here except Mandarin Duck, Aroma, Patience.” The maids asked, “ What is Precious Jade coming here.”

宝玉只当是说他，忙来陪笑说道：“因我偶步到此，不知是那位世交的花园？姐姐们带我逛逛。”众丫鬟都笑道：“原来不是咱们家的宝玉。他生得也还干净，嘴儿也倒乖觉。”宝玉听了，忙道：“姐姐们这里，也竟还有个宝玉？”丫鬟们忙道：“‘宝玉’二字，我们家是奉老太太、太太之命，为保佑他延年消灾的，我们叫他，他听见喜欢；你是那里远方来的小厮，也乱叫起来！仔细你的臭肉，打不烂了你的！”又一个丫鬟笑道：“咱们快走罢，别叫宝玉看见。”又说：“同这臭小子说了话，把咱们熏臭了！”说着，一径去了。

Precious Jade, assuming that they were talking about him, answered with a smile, ''I happened to ramble in here. I wonder which of my family's friends this garden belongs to. Will you show me round it, sisters?'' ''It isn't our Precious Jade after all,'' laughed the girls.'' ''He's not bad-looking though, and soft-spoken too.'' ''Is there another Precious Jade here, sisters?'' Precious Jade asked eagerly. ''It was the old lady and mistress who told us to call him Precious Jade as a means of bringing him luck,'' the girls rejoined. ''He likes it when we call him by his name. But how can a stinking young boy from far away like you to use it at random? You'd better watch out or we' ll beat you to a pulp!'' ''Let's go before Precious Jade sees him,'' urged another. ''Talking to this stinking wretch here had made us stink too.'' With that they hurried off.

宝玉纳闷道：“从来没有人如此荼毒我，他们如何竟这样的？莫不真也有我这样一个人不成？”一面想，一面顺步早到了一所院内。宝玉咤异道：“除了怡红院，也竟还有这么一个院落？”忽上了台阶，进入屋内，只见榻上有一个人卧着，那边有几个女儿做针线，也有嘻笑玩耍的。只见榻上那个少年叹了一声，一个丫鬟笑问道：“宝玉，你不睡，又叹什么？想必为你妹妹病了，你又胡愁乱恨呢。”宝玉听说，心下也便吃惊。只见榻上少年说道：“我听见老太太说，‘长安’都中也有个宝玉，和我一样的性情，我只不信。

Precious Jade wondered: “No one treats me like that, how could they? Does there any other like me?” While thinking, he walked into a yard. He was confused:” Is there a yard except for Happy Red Court?” Stepping on the stairs, he only saw a person lying on the bed in the room, with several maids knitting and playing. The boy on the bed sighed and one girl asked: “Precious Jade, why don’t you sleep and sigh? Are you worried about your ill sister?” Precious Jade heard and was shocked when the boy said: “Grandma said there is a Precious Jade in Changan quite like me, but I don’t buy for it.”--[[User:Li Yijia|Li Yijia]] ([[User talk:Li Yijia|talk]]) 03:54, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

此时宝玉虽醒，神意尚恍惚，因向门外指说：“才出了不远。”袭人笑道：“那是你梦迷了。你揉眼细瞧，是镜子里照的你的影儿。”宝玉向前瞧了一瞧，原是那嵌的大镜对面相照，自己也笑了。早有丫鬟捧过漱盂茶卤来漱了口。麝月道：“怪道老太太常嘱咐说：‘小人儿屋里不可多有镜子，小人魂不全，有镜子照多了，睡觉惊恐做胡梦。’如今倒在大镜子那里安了一张床！有时放下镜套还好；往前去，天热困倦，那里想得到放他，比如方才就忘了，自然先躺下照着影儿玩来着，一时合上眼，自然是胡梦颠倒的，不然，如何叫起自己的名字来呢？

Precious Jade Merchant was awake, but still in a trance. He pointed out the door and said, "I haven't been out that long." Aroma replied with a smile, "You are drowsy. Look closely, it's you in the mirror." So he looked forward again and finally realized that he had a big mirror in front of him. He smiled too. The servant girl came with a spittoon for him to gargle. Musk Deer Month said to him, "No wonder the Old Lady used to say, 'There should not be too many mirrors in a room with children, because children's souls are not mature enough, and if you look too much in the mirror, you will have nightmares at night. But you have such a big mirror in your room! It's okay when you cover it in your daily life. There was a hot hot weather a few days before, so naturally it is difficult to remind people to take out the mirror cover. You know, you just forgot about it, and then you lied in bed, looked at yourself in the mirror, and then you fell asleep. So nightmares came. If it wasn't for this reason, why would you call out your name?

If you go sick too, things here will be even worse." Nightingale retorted:" When we talk to each other, please keep your hand away from me."

That day when he saw Fragrant-cloud recovered gradually, Precious Jade went to visit Mascara Jade. At that moment, she was taking a nap, so Precious Jade did not dare to disturb her, because Nightingale was doing needling work on the cloister. Then he came to and asked her: "How is she? Does she stop coughing?" "Better," Nightingale said. "Amitabha!" he said. "It's time to recover." "It's strange that you should say Buddha," Nightingale laughed. He said: "It's like 'A drawing man can catch at a straw'.

一年大，二年小的，叫人看着不尊重。打紧的那起混帐行子们背地里说你；你总不留心，还只管和小时一般行为，如何使得。姑娘常常吩咐我们，不叫和你说笑。你近来瞧他，远着你还恐远不及呢。”说着，便起身携了针线进别的房里去了。宝玉见了这般景况，心中像浇了一盆冷水一般，只瞅着竹子发了一回呆。因祝妈正在那里挖刨土种竹，扫竹叶子，顿觉一时魂魄失守，随便坐在一块山石上出神，不觉滴下泪来。直呆了一顿饭工夫，千思万想，总不知如何是可。偶值雪雁从王夫人房中取了人参来，从此经过，忽扭头看见桃花树下石上一人，手托着腮颊，正出神呢：

"As we grow up, this kind of behavior will be not proper. Although they have always been speaking ill of you behind your back, you still turn a deaf ear to that and keep doing those things when we were little. This is out of place now. The mistress has always been telling us not to talking and playing with you. She is trying her best to hide from you recently when you come to visit her, and hiding from you will be not enough at all," she said and then got into another room with the needling stuff. Hearing what she said and seeing what she acted, Precious Jade felt like being poured with a basin of cold water in his heart and then just stared at the bamboos pondering. At that moment, Nanny Wish was digging there to plant bamboos and cleaning out the fallen leaves. It was dawned on him that his soul went out of his body. He sat on a rock with his mind wandering, and he then could not help shedding tears. He thought again and again and still did not know what to do until the meal time passed. Snow Goose passed here by accident when she just fetched the ginseng from Lady King's place, and saw the person thinking on the rock with his hand on his cheeks when she suddenly raised her head.

Though it doesn't matter to have my clothes broken, I remember she barely think of us when she get some good things.

Why not go to ask others. ”

紫鹃笑道：“你这个小东西儿，倒也巧。你不借给他，你推我和姑娘身上，好叫人怨不着你。他这会子就去啊，还是等明日一早才去呢？”雪雁道“这会子就去的，只怕此时已去了。”紫鹃点头。雪雁道：“姑娘还没醒呢，是谁给了宝玉气受？坐在那里哭呢。”紫鹃听了，忙问：“在那里？”雪雁道：“在沁芳亭后头桃花底下呢。”紫鹃听说，忙放下针线，又嘱咐雪雁：“好生听叫。若问我，答应我就来。”说着，便出了潇湘馆，一径来寻宝玉，走至宝玉跟前，含笑说道：“我不过说了那两句话，为的是大家好，你就一气，跑了这风地里来哭，弄出病来还了得！”

宝玉忙笑道：“谁赌气了！我因为听你说得有理，我想你们既这样说，自然别人也是这样说，将来渐渐的都不理我了，我所以想到这里，自己伤起心来了。”紫鹃也便挨他坐着。宝玉笑道：“方才对面说话，你尚走开，这会子如何又来挨我坐着？”紫鹃道：“你都忘了？几日前，你们姊妹两个正说话，赵姨娘一头走了进来，我才听见他不在家，所以我来问你。正是前日你和他才说了一句‘燕窝’，就歇住了，总没提起，我正想着问你。”宝玉道：“也没什么要紧。不过我想着宝姐姐也是客中，既吃燕窝，又不可间断，若只管和他要，也太托实。

Precious Jade smiled, “I’m not throwing temper here. It’s because I found what you said is very reasonable. Even you see it in that way, so do others. Gradually, you’ll all keep me in distance, the very thought of which makes me sad. Nightingale moved closer beside him. “You left while I was just sitting opposite and talking to you. Now what’s about this?”smiled Precious Jade. “You don’t remember what happened the other day? Nightingale said, “When you and Miss Forest were talking, Mrs. Zhao burst in suddenly. I heard she’s not home right now so I came here to ask you this thing: You were about to talk about the birds nest at the moment, and got interrupted by Mrs. Zhao, which you haven’t brought up since then.” Precious Jade replied,”No big deal. It’s that I think Sister Precious Hairpin lives here as a guest, and Mascara Jade need to have birds nest constantly, so it might be inappropriate to keep receiving this from her.”--[[User:Liu Lele|Liu Lele]] ([[User talk:Liu Lele|talk]]) 13:46, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

虽不便和太太要，我已经在老太太跟前略露了个风声，只怕老太太和凤姐姐说了。我告诉他的，竟不告诉完。如今我听见一日给你们一两燕窝，这也就完了。”紫鹃道：“原来是你说了，这又多谢你费心。我们正疑惑，老太太怎么忽然想起来叫人每一日送一两燕窝来呢？这就是了。”宝玉笑道：“这要天天吃惯了，吃上三二年就好了。”紫鹃道：“在这里吃惯了，明年家去，那里有这闲钱吃这个。”宝玉听了，吃了一惊，忙问：“谁家去？”紫鹃道：“妹妹回苏州去。”宝玉笑道：“你又说白话。苏州虽是原籍，因没了姑母，无人照看，才接了来的；

As it’s no use asking my mother. I dropped a hint to the old lady, and I suspect she must have told Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you. We’ve been wondering what made the old lady suddenly start sending an ounce every day, so that’s the reason.” Precious Jade said with a smile,“If she takes it regularly every day, after two or three years her health should be much better.” The maid replied, “She can have some every day here, but where will the money come from to continue the cure when she goes home next year?” Precious Jade starlted, “Who’s going to which home?” She responded, “Your cousin—back to Suzhou.” “Nonsense!” Precious Jade chuckled. “Suzhou may be her hometown, but she came here because there was no one there to look after her after her parents’ death.

On the other hand it would be rather awkward to have to ask Sister Phoenix for it; so I dropped a hint to Grandma, and I rather think that she had a word on the subject with Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you.

明年回去找谁？可见是扯谎。”紫鹃冷笑道：“你太看小了人。你们贾家独是大族，人口多的；除了你家，别人只得一父一母，房族中真个再无人了不成？我们姑娘来时，原是老太太心疼他年小，虽有叔伯，不如亲父母，故此接来住几年。大了该出阁时，自然要送还林家的，终不成林家女儿在你贾家一世不成？林家虽贫到没饭吃，也是世代书宦人家，断不肯将他家的人丢与亲戚，落的耻笑，所以早则明年春天，迟则秋天，这里纵不送去，林家亦必有人来接的。前日夜里姑娘和我说了，叫我告诉你，将从前小时玩的东西，有他送你的，叫你都打点出来还他；

Whom could she go back to next year? You must be lying.” “What a poor opinion you have of other people!” Zijuan snorted, “I suppose you think yours is the only big family in the world. According to you, I suppose, other people only have fathers and mothers: they couldn't possibly have uncles and aunts on their father's side like you do. Our young lady was brought here for a few years while she was still only a child, because the old lady felt for her and didn't think her uncles could take the place of her parents. But it was only ever her intention to keep her here for a few years. As soon as she's old enough to be married, she'll have to go back to the Lin family. You could hardly expect a Lin family girl to spend the rest of her days among the Merchant family, now could you? Even if the Lins were desperately poor, for generations they've been a family of scholars and officials: they'd never expose themselves to ridicule by abandoning a daughter to relatives. So next spring or next autumn at the latest, even if your family doesn't send her back, the Lins are sure to send to fetch her. The other evening our young lady told me to ask you for all the little gifts and souvenirs she's given you since you were children.“

他也将你送他的打点在那里呢。”宝玉听了，便如头顶上响了一个焦雷一般。紫鹃看他怎样回答，等了半天，见他只不作声，才要再问，只见晴雯找来，说：“老太太叫你呢。谁知在这里。”紫鹃笑道：“他这里问姑娘的病症。我告诉了他半日，他只不信。你倒拉他去罢。”说着，自己便走回房去了。晴雯见他呆呆的，一头热汗，满脸紫胀，忙拉他的手一直到怡红院中。袭人见了这般，慌起来了，只说时气所感，热身被风扑了。无奈宝玉发热事犹小可，更觉两个眼珠儿直直的起来；口角边津液流出，皆不知觉；给他个枕头，他便睡下；扶他起来，他便坐着；

倒了茶来，他便吃茶。众人见他这样，一时忙乱起来，又不敢造次去回贾母，先要差人去请李嬷嬷来。一时李嬷嬷来了，看了半日：问他几句话，也无回答；用手向他脉上摸了摸，嘴唇人中上着力掐了两下，掐得指印如许来深，竟也不觉疼。李嬷嬷只说了一声：“可了不得了！”“呀”的一声，便搂头放声大哭起来。急得袭人忙拉他说：“你老人家瞧瞧可怕不怕？且告诉我们，去回老太太、太太去。你老人家怎么先哭起来？”李嬷嬷捶床捣枕说：“这可不中用了！我白操了一世心了！”袭人因他年老多知，所以请他来看；

And drink tea if it was brought.1His condition threw them all into a panic, but not daring to report this too hastily to the Lady Dowager they first sent for his old nurse, Nanny Li.Nanny Li, arriving presently, examined Baoyu carefully.When he made no answer to any of her questions she felt his pulse, then pinched his upper lip so hard that her fingers left deep imprints--yet he felt no pain.At that she gave a great cry of despair and, taking him in her arms, started weeping and wailing.Aroma, beside herself with anxiety, tugged imploringly at her sleeve:‘Nannie, Nannie, have another look at him and tell us how serious it is, so that we know what to say to Their Ladyships.Don't just cry!”Nannie Li hammered the bed with her fists:‘It's all up with him, I tell you.A life-time of care gone for nothing!”Aroma and the girls who, whatever else they might think of Nannie Li, respected her age and experience, assumed that she must know what she was talking about.

如今见他这般一说，都信以为实，也哭起来了。晴雯便告诉袭人方才如此这般，袭人听了，便忙到潇湘馆来，见紫鹃正伏侍黛玉吃药，也顾不得什么，便走上来问紫鹃道：“你才和我们宝玉说了些什么话？你瞧瞧他去！你回老太太去，我也不管了！”说着，便坐在椅上。黛玉忽见袭人满面急怒，又有泪痕，举止大变，更不免也着了忙，因问：“怎么了？”袭人定了一回，哭道：“不知紫鹃姑奶奶说了些什么话，那个呆子眼也直了，手脚也冷了，话也不说了，李嬷嬷掐着也不疼了，已死了大半个了！

==英语笔译聂薇 Nie Wei 202170081592==

连李嬷嬷都说不中用了，那里放声大哭，只怕这会子都死了！”黛玉听此言，李嬷嬷乃久经老妪，说不中用了，可知必不中用，“哇”的一声，将所服之药，一口呕出，抖肠搜肺、灸胃扇肝的，哑声大嗽了几阵：一时面红发乱，目肿筋浮，喘的抬不起头来。紫鹃忙上来捶背，黛玉伏枕喘息半晌，推紫鹃道：“你不用捶！你竟拿绳子来勒死我，是正经。”紫鹃哭道：“我并没说什么，不过是说了几句玩话，他就认真了。”袭人道：“你还不知道他那傻子，每每玩话认了真。”黛玉道：“你说了什么话？趁早儿去解说，他只怕就醒过来了。”

Even Nanny Li said there is no cure for him. Just listen to the cries from his room, I’m afraid he has died!” Hearing this, Mascara Jade knew that there is definitely nothing can be done to save him now that the sophisticated Nanny Li said so. The bad news made her vomit out all the medicine she had taken and have a fit of coughing before turning in to a red face and swollen eyes, and the severe gasp made it difficult for her to raise her head. Then Purple Cuckoo came up to thump on her back. After gasping on her pillow for quite a long time, she pushed Purple Cuckoo away and said, “ You don’t need to do that! The first priority for you is to strangle me with a rope!” Then her poor maid cried, “ I said nothing bad. I was just joking, but he took it seriously.” Aroma refuted, “ Don’t you understand that blockhead’s temper? He is always taking jokes seriously.” And Mascara Jade asked, “ What did you say to him? Just go to clarify it to him as soon as possible, maybe there is a possibility that he would come to.”

紫鹃听说，忙下床，同袭人到了怡红院。谁知贾母王夫人等已都在那里了。贾母一见了紫鹃，便眼内出火，骂道：“你这小蹄子，和他说了什么？”紫鹃忙道：“并没敢说什么，不过说几句玩话。”谁知宝玉见了紫鹃，方“嗳呀”了一声，哭出来了。众人一见，都放下心来。贾母便拉住紫鹃，只当他得罪了宝玉，所以拉紫鹃命他赔罪。谁知宝玉一把拉住紫鹃，死也不放，说：“要去连我也带了去。”众人不解，细问起来，方知紫鹃说要回苏州去，一句玩话引出来的。贾母流泪道：“我当有什么要紧大事，原来是这句玩话。”

When hearing what Mascara Jade've just said, Ningtingale jumped out of the bed quickly and headed for the Happy Red Court with Aroma. To their surprise, Grandma Merchant, Lady Wang and others were already there. When at the sight of Ningtingale, Grandma Merchant just abused and shouted at her with great fury, "What did you, such a hussy, say to Precious Jade on earth?" "Nothing but a few jokes", Ningtingale hurriedly responded. And who knows that Precious Jade burst into tears right after sighing with Ah the moment he saw Ningtingale. The crowd were all relieved when they saw that. And then keeping hold of her hands and just thinking she dispeased Precious Jade , Grandma Merchant let Ningtingale to make an apology to him. And everyone didn't expect that Precious Jade grabbed Ningtingale and refused to let her go, saying, "If you go, well then take me with you". Being puzzled, everyone questioned them closely what was going on and then realized that all these were caused by one of Ningtingale' s jokes that she would go back to Suzhou for fun. Then Grandma Merchant said with tears welling up from her eyes, "What a major matter I've just thought, it turns out to this joke originally."

It happened that Mascara Jade has come here since she was little, and they are naturally different from other siblings as growing up together.

此亦痰迷之症，系急痛所致，不过一时壅蔽，较诸痰迷似轻。”贾母道：“你只说怕不怕，谁同你背药书呢！”王太医忙躬身笑道：“不妨，不妨。”贾母道：“果真不妨？”王太医道：“实在不妨。都在晚生身上。”贾母道：“既如此，请到外面坐，开药方。吃好了，我另外预备好谢礼，叫他亲自捧了，送去磕头；若耽误了，我打发人去拆了太医院大堂。”王太医只躬身笑说：“不敢，不敢。”他原听了说：“另具上等谢礼命宝玉去磕头”，故满口说“不敢”，竟未听见贾母后来说“拆太医院”之戏语，犹说“不敢”，贾母与众人反倒笑了。
This is also a phlegm confusion, which is caused by acute pain, but it is temporarily hidden, and it is lighter than that of phlegm fans.

一时按方煎药，药来服下，果觉比先安静。无奈宝玉只不肯放紫鹃，只说：“他去了，便是要回苏州去了。”贾母王夫人无法，只得命紫鹃守着他，另将琥珀去伏侍黛玉。黛玉不时遣雪雁来探消息。这晚间宝玉稍安，贾母王夫人等方回去了。一夜还遣人来问信几次。李奶妈带宋妈等几个年老人用心看守，紫鹃、袭人、晴雯等日夜相伴。有时宝玉睡去，必从梦中惊醒，不是哭了，说黛玉已去，便是说有人来接。每一惊时，必得紫鹃安慰一番方罢。彼时贾母又命将祛邪守灵丹及开窍通神散各样上方秘制诸药，按方饮服。

After taking the medicine as prescribed, he felt better than before. But Precious Jade refused to release Nightingale, only said: "Once left, she is to go back to Suzhou." Mother Merchant and Lady King had no choice but to order Nightingale to accompany him, and Amber to serve Jade Forest. Jade Forest sent Snowgoose ask the physical condition of him from time to time. This evening, Lady King and other parties didn’t go back until Precious Jade felt better. A few times a night she sent servants to ask. Nanny Plum with Nanny Sone and several other elderly people to watch with care, Nightingale, Aroma, Sunny Cloud Formation and other elderly people care for him. Sometimes he waked up from a dream, crying Jade Forest has gone, or that someone came to pick him up. Each time the alarm, must have Nightingale comforted. At that time, Mother Merchant ordered him to take all kinds of secret medicine according to the formula.

After taking the medicine as prescribed, Precious Jade felt better than before. Yet he still won’t let go of Nightingale, crying"Once she left, she is bound to go back to Suzhou." Grandma Merchant and Lady King had no choice but to order Nightingale to accompany him and send Amber to serve Mascara Jade. From time to time Jade Forest would send Snowgoose to check the physical condition of Precious Jade. Seeing that Precious Jade was feeling better this evening, Grandma Merchant and Lady King, along with all the elders went back to their quarters respectively. However, they wouldn’t be reassured without the information of Precious Jade’s condition brought by the servants they sent. There were Nanny Plum with Nanny Sone and several other elderly people watching him with care, and Nightingale, Aroma, Sunny Cloud Formation and other little maids taking care for him. Sometimes Precious Jade would wake up from a nightmare either crying that Mascara Jade has gone or that someone came to pick her up. Each time he did this they must have Nightingale comfort him. Meanwhile Grandma Merchant sent him all kinds of secret medicine and ordered the maids to coax Precious Jade into taking them according to the formula.--[[User:Xiao Dongqing|Xiao Dongqing]] ([[User talk:Xiao Dongqing|talk]]) 01:08, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

次日又服了王太医药，渐次好了起来。宝玉心下明白，因恐紫鹃回去，倒故意作出佯狂之态。紫鹃自那日也着实后悔，如今日夜辛苦，并没有怨意。袭人等皆心安神定，因向紫鹃笑道：“都是你闹的，还得你来治。也没见我们这位呆子，‘听了风就是雨’，往后怎么好。”暂且按下。且说此时湘云之症已愈，天天过来瞧看，见宝玉明白了，便将他病中狂态形容与他瞧，引得宝玉自己伏枕而笑：原来他起先那样，竟是不知的；如今听人说，还不信。无人时，紫鹃在侧，宝玉又拉他的手，问道：“你为什么唬我？”

After taking the medication prescribed by Doctor King the next day, Precious Jade was on the road to recovery. Conscious of that, Precious Jade pretended to be ill all the same for fear of losing Nightingale, who regretted her lies about Mascara Jade the other day and worked day and night without grudges taking care of him. Servants of Aroma and others now felt much relieved at the scene, smiling "Now let’s see who’s the victim of her own scheming! Poor young master to have believed what you said. What’s left to do with it in the long run?" Details of her jokes shall not be discussed. Now that Fragrant-history had recovered from her disease too, she paid a visit to Precious Jade’s place every day elaborating his rampage in the disease, which made Precious Jade himself laughed against the pillow. It turned out that he had not been aware of what he did and remained skeptical of the story. When nobody else’s around, he would secretly took Nightingale by the hand, asking "Why did you lie to me?"

紫鹃道：“不过是哄你玩的，你就认真了。”宝玉道：“你说得那样有情有理，如何是玩话呢？”紫鹃笑道：“那些玩话，都是我编的。林家实没了人口；纵有，也是极远的族中，也都不在苏州住，各省流寓不定。纵有人来接，老太太也必不放去的。”宝玉道：“便老太太放去，我也不依！”紫鹃笑道：“果真的不依？只怕是口里的话。你如今也大了，连亲也定下了，过二三年再娶了亲，你眼里还有谁了？”宝玉听了，又惊问：“谁定了亲，定了谁？”紫鹃笑道：“年里我就听见老太太说要定了琴姑娘呢；不然，那么疼他？”

“I only did it for fun,” Nightingale replied.“But you took it seriously.”“That was no joke,”said Precious Jade. “It was too well-reasoned.Nightingale laughed. ”I made it all up.There is no people in the Forest family.If there is, they're very, very distant relations, and not in SuZhou, either, but scattered all over the place, in different provinces.Even if one of them asked for her, the old lady would never let her go.”“Even if the old lady would let her go, I wouldn't.”said Precious Jade.”I wonder,“said Nightingale.“That's just talk, I'm afraid.You're growing up now and already engaged; in a couple of years you'll be marrying, and then you'll forget other people.”Precious Jade heard her with astonishment. “Betrothed?To whom?””Just before New Year I heard Old Lady say that she was betrothing you to Miss Harp. That's why she makes so much of her, isn't it?”Nightingale replied.

“I only did it for fun,” Nightingale replied.“But you took it seriously.”“You made it sound so convincing, how was I to know it was just a joke?”Precious Jade retorted.

宝玉笑道：“人人只说我傻，你比我更傻！不过是句玩话，他已经许给梅翰林家了。果然定下了他，我还是这个形景了？先是我发誓赌咒，砸这劳什子，你都没劝过吗？我病的刚刚的这几日才好了，你又来怄我。”一面说，一面咬牙切齿的，又说道：“我只愿这会子立刻我死了，把心迸出来，你们瞧见了，然后连皮带骨，一概都化成一股灰，再化成一股烟，一阵大风，吹得四面八方，都登时散了，这才好！”一面说，一面又滚下泪来。紫鹃忙上来握他的嘴，替他擦眼泪，又忙笑解说道：“你不用着急。这原是我心里着急，故来试你。”

Precious Jade laughed.“People may call me crazy, but you're even crazier! That was just a joke. She's already engaged to the son of Academician Mei. If I were engaged to her, would I be in this state? Didn't you plead with me and say I was mad when I swore that oath and wanted to smash that silly jade? Now you've come to provoke me again just as I'm getting better.”Through clenched teeth he added.“I only wish I could die this very minute and tear out my heart to show you. Then all the rest of me, skin and bones, could be turned into ashes. No, ashes still have form better be turned into smoke. But smoke still congeals and can be seen by men it would have to be scattered in a flash, by a great wind, to the four quarters. That would be a good death.”Tears were running down his cheeks as he spoke. Nightingale hastily put her hand to his mouth, then wiped away his tears.“You needn't worry,”she urged.“I was putting you to the test because I was worried.”

宝玉听了，更又咤异，问道：“你又着什么急？”紫鹃笑道：“你知道，我并不是林家的人，我也和袭人鸳鸯是一伙的，偏把我给了林姑娘使。偏生他又和我极好，比他苏州带来的还好十倍，一时一刻，我们两个离不开。我如今心里却愁他倘或要去了，我必要跟了他去的。我是合家在这里，我若不去，辜负了我们素日的情长；若去，又弃了本家。所以我疑惑，故说出这谎话来问你，谁知你就傻闹起来。”宝玉笑道：“原来是你愁这个，所以你是傻子。从此后再别愁了。我告诉你一句打趸儿的话：活着，咱们一处活着；不活着，咱们一处化灰，化烟。如何？”

Precious Jade asked in surprise，“You worried? Why?”“You know I don’t belong to the Forest family. Like Aroma and Mandarin Duck, I was given to Miss Forest. She treats me ten times better than her own maids brought from Suzhou; we can’t be seperated for a single moment. I’m worried now because, if she leaves, I shall have to go with her; but my whole family’s here. If I don’t go, I’ll be unworthy of all her goodness; if I do, I shall have to abandon my own family. That’s why, in my dilemma, I told you that lie to see how you felt about it. How was I know that you’d take it so hard?”“So that’s what’s worrying you,”Precious Jade smiled. “What a goose you are! Well, set your heart at rest. Let me just put it in a nutshell for you. If we live, we shall live together; and if we die, we shall turn into ashes and smoke together. How do you think？”

紫鹃听了，心下暗暗筹画。忽有人回：“环爷兰哥儿问候。”宝玉道：“就说难为他们，我才睡了，不必进来。”婆子答应去了。紫鹃笑道：“你也好了，该放我回去瞧瞧我们那一个去了。”宝玉道：“正是这话。我昨夜就要叫你去的，偏又忘了。我已经大好了，你就去罢。”紫鹃听说，方打迭叠铺盖妆奁之类。宝玉笑道：“我看见你文具里头有两三面镜子，你把那面小菱花的给我留下罢。我搁在枕头旁边，照着好睡，明日出门带着也轻巧。”紫鹃听说，只得与他留下，先命人将东西送过去，然后别了众人，自回潇湘馆来。
Juan listened, and secretly planned a plan. Suddenly someone replied, "Greetings from Huan Ye Lan." Bao Yu said, "I just said it was difficult for them, I just went to bed, and I don't have to come in." The old woman agreed to go. Zijuan smiled and said, "You're fine too, it's time to let me go back and see who we are." Baoyu said, "That's exactly what I said. I was going to ask you to go last night, but I forgot. I'm already fine. If you're done, you just go." Zijuan heard that Fang was putting on layers of bedding and make-up. Baoyu smiled and said, "I saw two or three mirrors in your stationery. You can leave the one with the little ling flower to me. I put it next to the pillow and sleep well. It's easy to take it with you when you go out tomorrow." I heard that I had to stay with him, order someone to send things over, then say goodbye to everyone, and return to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Hearing Precious Jade had a bad time, Mascara Jade cried a few more times and was more weak in illness. Today Nightingale came and asked the reason, she got to know that Mascara Jade was much better now, but she still send Amber to serve Merchant Grandma. At tranquil night, when Nightingale was undressed and lying down, she smiled at Mascara Jade and said, "Precious Jade is very sincere. He still struggled to get up when he heard we came." Mascara Jade did not answer. Nightingale stopped for a long time and said to herself, "It is better to keep quiet than to move. We consider ourselves a good family here. Everything else is easy. What is the rarest is that we grew up together in one place, so we know each other’s temperament well.” Mascara Jade scolded her, "Are you not tired in these days? Just take a break now and stop talking the nonsense!" Nightingale said with a smile, "What I am talking about is not nonsense and I have your best interests at heart.”

替你愁了这几年了：无父母无兄弟，谁是知疼着热的人？趁早儿，老太太还明白硬朗的时节，作定了大事要紧。俗语说，‘老健春寒秋后热。’倘或老太太一时有个好歹，那时虽也完事，只怕耽误了时光，还不得趁心如意呢。公子王孙虽多，那一个不是三房五妾，今儿朝东，明儿朝西？娶一个天仙来，也不过三夜五夜，也就撂在脖子后头了，甚至于怜新弃旧，反目成仇的。若娘家有人有势的，还好些；若姑娘这样的人，有老太太一日还好，一日若没了老太太，也只是凭人去欺负罢了。所以说，拿主意要紧。

I have been worried about you for several years. You have no parents or brothers to care for you. So it is important to settle you marriage affair in a good time, while Grandma Merchant is still healthy and clear-headed. As an old saying goes, “The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.” If something happens to Grandma Merchant, you marriage will be delayed or you will marry a people you don not wish. There are many young lordlings, but they both want to have many wives and concubines. There affection is not constant and may change from one to another. Even though they get a girl as a fairy as his wife, they may cast her off after several days. Someone may treat her as an enemy for the sake of another new concubine. If her family is powerful and wealthy, it may be not so bad; but for someone like you, you life will be good as long as Grandma Merchant still lives. However, someday once she pass away, you will live under others’ treatment. Therefore, it is important to make up your mind.

“It isn’t nonsense. I was thinking of you. I’ve felt worried for you all these years with no father, mother or brothers to care for you. The important thing is to settle the main affair of your life in good time, while the old lady’s still clear-headed and healthy. The proverb says, ‘The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.’ If anything should happen to the old lady your marriage might be delayed, or else not turn out in the way you hoped. There’s no lack of young lordlings, but they all want three wives and five concubines and their affections change from one day to the next. They may bring home a wife as lovely as a fairy, yet after four or five nights they cast her off, treating her like an enemy for the sake of a concubine or a slave girl. If her family’s large and powerful, that’s not so bad; and for someone like you, miss, so long as the old lady lives you’ll be all right. Once she’s gone, you’ll have to put up with ill treatment.

“You’ve sense enough to understand the saying, ‘The thousand taels of gold are easier come by than an understanding heart.” “The girl’s crazy!” exclaimed Mascara Jade. “A few days away, and you’ve suddenly changed into a different person. Tomorrow I shall ask the old lady to take you back. I no longer dare keep you.” “I meant well,” was the smiling answer. “I just wanted you to look out for yourself, not to do anything wrong. What good will it do if you report me to the old lady and get me into trouble?” With that Nightingale closed her eyes. Although Mascara Jade had spoken so sharply, this talk had distressed her. After Nightingale went to sleep she wept all night, no dozing off until dawn. The next morning she found it an effort to wash herself, rinse her mouth and swallow her bird’s-nest broth. Then the Lady Merchant and others called to see her and urged her to take better care of herself.

The next day, Aunt Marshgrass's family ordered Tadpole Marshgrass to accompany the families to drink for a day, and it took three or four days to complete. Because Aunt Marshgrass thought that Cave Cloud Marshgrass was born elegant and stable in a poor family. Aunt Marshgrass wanted her to be married to Dragon Marshgrass. Because Dragon Marshgrass had done a lot of extravagance in the past, and was afraid of trampling on the daughter of others, so she was hesitating. Then she suddenly recalled that Tadpole Marshgrass was not yet married, and seeing that the two of them were just a couple born to be set up. Then she went to plan it with Sister Phoenix.

Sister Phoenix laughed, "You know that my mother-in-low has an eccentric disposition, so we need discuss about this matter slowly." When Grandma Merchant stopped by Siter Phoenix's house, she said to Grand Merchant, "Aunt Marshgrass wants you to do her a favor, but she feels embarrassed to tell you." Grand Merchant asked, "What is it?" Sister Phoenix told her the matter of the Marshgrass Family seeking a marriage alliance. Hearing this, Grand Merchant laughed, "What a wonderful thing it is! Your mother-in-law will agree when I tell her about it." After Grandma Merchant went back to her room, she ordered a servant to invite Lady City to come right now. She told Lady City about the marriage and guaranteed for it. Lady City thought to herself: "The Marshgrass Family has a good foundation and is rich now. And Tadpole Marshgrass is also a man of striking appearance." With the guarantee from Grandma Merchant, she agreed to the marriage between Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud City. Grandma Merchant was very happy and invited Aunt Marshgrass to come. And there came naturally lots of self-depreciatory words between them.

But since you’re the go-between, madam, will you find us someone to take charge of the betrothal ceremony?’‘Whatever else we’re short of, we can produce one or two helpers of a sort, ‘the Grandma Merchant chuckled.She sent for Treasure Merchant’s wife and daughter-in-law. When they heard the news from her they offered their congratulations.‘You know our family ways,’ she told Madam Outstanding. ‘The two families never squabble over betrothal gifts.

如今你算替我在当中料理，也不可太省，也不可太费，把他两家的事周全了回我。”尤氏忙答应了。薛姨妈喜之不尽，回家命写了请帖，补送过宁府。尤氏深知邢夫人情性，本不欲管，无奈贾母亲自嘱咐，只得应了，惟有忖度邢夫人之意行事。薛姨妈是个无可无不可的人，倒还易说。这且不在话下。如今薛姨妈既定了邢岫烟为媳，合宅皆知。邢夫人本欲接出岫烟去住，贾母因说：“这又何妨，两个孩子又不能见面，就是姨太太和他一个大姑子，一个小姑子，又何妨？况且都是女孩儿，正好亲近些呢。”

"You know our family ways," she told Madam Outstanding. "The two families never squabble over betrothal gifts. You must handle this business for me, neither too stingily nor too lavishly. Report to me when everything is arranged." As soon as Madam Outstanding accepted this task，Aunt Marshgrass went home overjoyed to write invitation cards for the Peace Mansion.Madam You knew Lady City's cantankerous temper and would have preferred to have nothing to do with the business, but she had to fall in with the old lady's wishes. She did her best to please Lady City,aware that Aunt Marshgrass was so easygoing there would be no problem there.But enough of this. Now that the whole household knew that Tadpole Marshgrass was to marry Aunt Marshgrass's nephew, Lady City wanted to move her out of the Garden. "What does it matter if she stays?" demurred the Grandma Merchant."There's no danger of the two young people meeting, and it shouldn't worry you if she sees Aunt Marshgrass and the two cousins of the other family every day. They're all girls, aren't they? They may as well get to know each other better." Madam Outstanding made no further objection then.

邢夫人方罢。那薛蝌岫烟二人，前次途中，曾有一面之遇，大约二人心中皆如意，只是那岫烟未免比先时拘泥了些，不好与宝钗姐妹共处闲语；又兼湘云是个爱取笑的，更觉不好意思。幸他是个知书达礼的，虽有女儿，还不是那种佯羞诈鬼、一味轻薄造作之辈。宝钗自那日见他起，想他家业贫寒；二则别人的父母皆是年高有德之人，独他的父母偏是酒糟透了的人，于女儿分中平常；邢夫人也不过是脸面之情，亦非真心疼爱；且岫烟为人雅重，迎春是个老实人，连他自己尚未照管齐全，如何能照管到他身上，

Lady City then relented. Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud Marshgrass had met before in one of their trips. They both were satisfied with each other. It was just that Cave Cloud was shier than the last time and didn't feel relaxed to chat with Precious Hairpin and other ladies. More than that, Fragrant-cloud History loved cracking jokes, which made her felt more uncomfortable. Luckily, she was highly cultured and stepped in propriety. Though a lady, he was not the kind that would cheat or flirt with others. Since the day Precious Hairpin met her, Precious Hairpin knew that she lived in poverty. Also, others parents were all aged and virtuous but hers were bad, which made her unique among all the ladies. Lady City's concern were out of courtesy rather than sincerity. Cave Cloud were elegant and Welcome-Spring were honest. They couldn't even take good care of themselves, how could they concern her.

凡闺阁中家常一应需用之物，或有亏乏，无人照管，他又不与人张口。宝钗倒暗中每相体贴接济，也不敢与邢夫人知道，也恐怕是多心闲话之故。如今却是众人意料之外奇缘作成这门亲事。岫烟心中先取中宝钗，有时仍与宝钗闲话，宝钗仍以姊妹相呼。这日宝钗因来瞧黛玉，恰值岫烟也来瞧黛玉，二人在半路相遇。宝钗含笑唤他到跟前，二人同走。至一块石壁后，宝钗笑问他：“这天还冷的很，你怎么倒全换了夹的了？”岫烟见问，低头不答。宝钗便知道又有了原故，因又笑问道：“必定是这个月的月钱又没得？凤姐姐如今也这样没心没计了。”
Whenever Cave Cloud ran short of any daily necessities, there was no one to see to it, and she was too unassuming to mention it. Precious Hairpin Marshgrass accordingly often helped her in secret, not letting Lady City know for fear of giving offence, with the result that now that this unexpected match had been arranged Cave Cloud felt even more closely bound to Precious Hairpin than to Tadpole Marshgrass. She often went to chat with her, and Precious Hairpin continued to address her as "cousin."
One day Precious Hairpin set out to call on Mascara Jade. Happening to meet Cave Cloud on the way, she beckoned her with a smile and they walked on together. As they skirted the back of a rockery, Precious Hairpin inquired: "Why have you changed out of padded clothes into lined ones, when the weather is still so cold?" Cave Cloud hung her head and said nothing.
Sensing some reason for this Precious Hairpin continued, "Don't tell me this month's allowance was held up again? Cousin Phoenix really is growing rather thoughtless."

岫烟道：“他倒想着不错日子给，因姑妈打发人和我说道：一个月用不了二两银子，叫我省一两给爹妈送出去；要使什么，横竖有二姐姐的东西，能着些搭着就使了。姐姐想：二姐姐也是个老实人，也不大留心。我使他的东西，他虽不说什么，他那些妈妈丫头，那一个是省事的？那一个是嘴里不尖的？我虽在那屋里，却不敢很使唤他们，过三天五天，我倒得拿出钱来，给他们打酒买点心吃才好。因此一月二两银子还不够使，如今又去了一两。前日我悄悄的把棉衣服叫人当了几吊钱盘缠。”宝钗听了，愁叹道：“偏梅家又合家在任上，后年才进来。
"She issued it on the right date," rejoined Cave Cloud. "But my aunt sent to tell me I shouldn't need two taels a month and must save one for my parents. She said if I was short of anything I could borrow from Spring Pleasure and make do. But, you see,Spring Pleasure is a simple soul who doesn't always think. She wouldn't mind my using her things, but those maids and nannies of hers are all troublemakers — you know what sharp tongues they have. Though I'm staying there, I dare not order them about; infact, every few days I have to spend money on wine and cakes for them. l can't manage even on two taels a month, and now it's been cut to one. So the other day I got someone, on the sly, to pawn my padded clothes for a few strings of cash."
Hearing this, Precious Hairpin frowned and sighed in sympathy. "It's too bad that the Mei family have all gone to the new post and won't be back in the capital till the year after next," she said.

若是在这里，琴儿过去了，好再商议你这事。离了这里就完了。如今不完了他妹妹的事，也断不敢先娶亲的。如今倒是一件难事。再迟两年，我又怕你熬煎出病来。等我和妈妈再商议。”宝钗又指他裙上一个璧玉珮问道：“这是谁给你的？”岫烟道：“这是三姐姐给的。”宝钗点头道：“他见人人皆有，独你一个没有，怕人笑话，故此送一个。这是他聪明细致之处。”岫烟又问：“姐姐此时那里去？”宝钗道：“我到潇湘馆去。你且回去，把那当票子叫丫头送来我那里，悄悄的取出来，晚上再悄悄的送给你去，早晚好穿；
If they were here,we could arrange Precious String'wedding and then yours. Once you leave here you'll be all right. The trouble is that Tadpole Marshgrass won't consider getting married before his younge sister; yet if you have to put up with two more years of this,I'm afraid it may ruin your health. I must talk to my mother and see what can be done. Then Baochai pointed at the green jade pendant hanging from her skirt,"Who gave you that?" "It's a present from Cousin Spring-seeking." Precious Hairpin nodded. "She must have noticed that you were the only one with no jade to wear,so to stop people laughing at you she gave you this. It shows how thoughtful and observant she is. Cave Cloud assented then asked her where she was going. "To Bamboo Lodge," Precious Hairpin told her slip back and send a maid over to our place with the pawn ticket. I'll have the clothes redeemed quietly and sent to you this evening,so that you have something warm to wear.--[[User:Mahzad Heydarian|Mahzad Heydarian]] ([[User talk:Mahzad Heydarian|talk]]) 06:02, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

不然，风闪着还了得！但不知当在那里了？”岫烟道：“叫做什么恒舒典，是鼓楼西大街的。”宝钗笑道：“这闹在一家去了！伙计们倘或知道了，好说‘人没过来，衣裳先过来’了。”岫烟听说，便知是他家的本钱，也不答，红了脸一笑，二人走开。宝钗就往潇湘馆来。恰正值他母亲也来瞧黛玉，正说闲话呢。宝钗笑道：“妈妈多早晚来的？我竟不知道。”薛姨妈道：“我这几天忙，总没来瞧瞧宝玉和他。所以今日瞧他人，都也好了。”黛玉忙让宝钗坐了，因向宝钗道：“天下的事，真是人想不到的。拿着姨妈和大舅母说起，怎么又作一门亲家。”薛姨妈道：“我的儿，你们女孩儿家那里知道？
Otherwise, the wind is still shining! But don't know where it is? "Xiu Yan said: "What is it called Heng Shu Dian, it's from Gulou West Street. " Baochai smiled and said: "This is a family trouble! Guys, if they know, it's easier to say that "the clothes will come first before the people come". When Xiuyan heard it, she knew that it was his family's capital, so she didn't answer, she blushed and the two walked away. Baochai went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It was just when his mother came to see Daiyu and was gossiping. Baochai smiled and said, "How sooner or later did my mother come? I didn't know. Aunt Xue said, "I've been busy these days, so I never came to see Baoyu and him." So looking at others today, it's all good. Daiyu hurriedly asked Baochai to sit down, and Yin said to Baochai, "The affairs of the world are really unexpected. Talking about my aunt, how could they be in-laws again. Aunt Xue said, "My son, where do you girls know?"

“Otherwise, there will troubles with you once suffering from cold wind. So where did you pawn your clothes? ” “It seems to be called Lasting Pawn of Joy, a store located at the West Street of Gulou，” Cave Cloud replied. Precious Hairpin smiled and said, “It turns out to be a farce inside the family. If this comes to salesmen in the store, they must joke ‘the clothes come before the beauty. As Cave Cloud heard this, she knew that it was her family’s store, so she didn’t answer, but just blushed with a smile. And the two parted. Precious Hairpin went to Bamboo Lodge. It was just the right time when his mother also came to see Mascara Jade and was chatting with her. Precious Hairpin smiled and asked, “Mom, when did you come? You shall not tell me.” Aunt Marshgrass said, “I've been busy these days, so I have no time come to see Precious Jade and Mascara Jade. As I come today, Mascara Jade has become better.”Mascara Jade hurriedly treat Precious Hairpin with a chair, and said to her, “The affairs of the world are really unexpected. Your mother and my first aunt, for example, should be in-laws again. Aunt Marshgrass said, “My child, how can you girls know these things?”

紫鹃进来看时，只见黛玉被窝又蹬下来，复又给他轻轻盖上。一宿晚景不提。次日，黛玉清早起来，也不叫人，独自一个，呆呆的坐着。紫鹃醒来，看见黛玉已起，便惊问道：“姑娘怎么这么早？”黛玉道：“可不是！睡得早，所以醒得早。”紫鹃连忙起来，叫醒雪雁，伺候梳洗。那黛玉对着镜子，只管呆呆的自看。看了一回，那泪珠儿断断连连，早已湿透了罗帕。正是：瘦影正临春水照，卿须怜我我怜卿。紫鹃在旁也不敢劝，只怕倒把闲话勾引旧恨来。迟了好一会，黛玉才随便梳洗了，那眼中泪渍，终是不干。又自坐了一会，叫紫鹃道：“你把藏香点上。”

As Nightingale came in and found Mascara Jade’s quilt had been moved off again, she draped it lightly around the sleeping lady. Nobody mentioned the evening chat overnight. The next morning Mascara Jade woke up, and didn’t ask anyone but left herself to sit blankly at the bedside, which was seen by Nightingale, who got up later, and she felt surprised, “Sister Forest, you get up so early!” “Yes! I fall asleep early and so get up early,” said Mascara Jade. Nightingale hurried to wake up Snowgoose to help the young lady freshen up. Facing the mirror, the sad girl just looked straight at herself in a complete daze. Shortly, she could be seen drops of tears continuously hanging on her face and wet her handkerchief. That’s exactly what the line could tell: Against the water, I felt depressed at that slender figure. Unreliable as the love offered by others, I have to take pity on myself. Seeing that, Nightingale didn’t dare to comfort her, worrying that her comforts would bring back her past sadness. In a few moments, the weeping lady roughly freshened herself up, while her tears were unceasing. “Light that Tibetan sticks，” she told Nightingale after a while.

紫鹃道：“姑娘，你睡也没睡得几时，如何点香？不是要写经？”黛玉点点头儿。紫鹃道：“姑娘今日醒得太早，这会子又写经，只怕太劳神了罢。”黛玉道：“不怕！早完了早好！况且我也并不是为经，倒借着写字解解闷儿。以后你们见了我的字迹，就算见了我的面儿了。”说着，那泪直流下来。紫鹃听了这话，不但不能再劝，连自己也掌不住滴下泪来。原来黛玉立定主意，自此以后，有意遭塌身子，茶饭无心，每日渐减下来。宝玉下学时，也常抽空问候。只是黛玉虽有万千言语，自知年纪已大，又不便似小时可以柔情挑逗，所以满腔心事，只是说不出来。

“You've slept only for a very short period of time, my ladyship. Why do you want incense? To copy more scriptures?” worried Nightingale. Mascara Jade nodded. “You woke up too early. If you want to copy scriptures now, I’m afraid it will drain your brains.” opposed Nightingale. “Put your mind at ease. I want to finish it as soon as possible. Besides, it’s not the scriptures I’m thinking about, but writing helps divert me from boredom. And later, when I'm not here anymore, seeing my calligraphy will be like seeing me again”. Comforted Mascara Jade, with tears streaming down her face. Knowing that she is not persuadable, Nightingale could not hold back her own tears any longer, too. Now that Mascara Jade had made up her mind to lavish her health, she ate less every day and gradually became emaciated. Precious Jade often took time off to visit her after school; although she was dying to pour out her inner emotion, now that they were no longer children she could hardly tease him playfully as before or express her constrained feelings straightly.

宝玉欲将实言安慰，又恐黛玉生嗔，反添病症。两个人见了面，只得用浮言劝慰，真真是”亲极反疏“了。那黛玉虽有贾母王夫人等怜恤，不过请医调治，只说黛玉常病，那里知他的心病？紫鹃等虽知其意，也不敢说。从此，一天一天的减。到半月之后，肠胃日薄一日，果然粥都不能吃了。黛玉日间听见的话，都似宝玉娶亲的话；看见怡红院中的人，无论上下，也像宝玉娶亲的光景。薛姨妈来看，黛玉不见宝钗，越发起疑心。索性不要人来看望，也不肯吃药，只要速死。睡梦之中，常听见有人叫“宝二奶奶”的。一片疑心，竟成蛇影。一日竟是绝粒，粥也不喝，恹恹一息，垂毙殆尽。

Precious Jade wanted to console her, yet he feared this might offend her and make her illness worse.When they met each other they could only express their concern in the most superficial way. Truly, theirs was a case of “devotion leading to alienation.”Grandma Merchant and Lady King were fond of Mascara Jade, simply called in doctors to attend her as she was so often ill, with no inkling that she was wasting away for love. And though Nightingale knew the truth, she dared not reveal it. So for a fortnight Mascara Jade ate daily less, till her appetite had so diminished that she could not even swallow a mouthful of congee. Any talk she heard she suspected concerned Precious Jade’s marriage. Anyone from Happy Red Court, whether master or maid, made her think of his impending marriage too. When Aunt Marshgrass called on her without Precious Hairpin, this made her still more suspicious. She even wished everyone would keep away, and refused to take any medicine in the hope of hastening her death. In her dreams, she kept hearing people refer to “Madam Precious Hairpin.” Suspicion poisoned her mind. And at last the day came when, refusing both rice and congee, she was at her last gasp and almost death’s door.

却说黛玉自立意自戕之后，渐渐不支，一日竟至绝粒。从前十几天内，贾母等轮流看望，他有时还说几句话；这两日索性不大言语。心里虽有时昏晕，却也有时清楚。贾母等见他这病不似无因而起，也将紫鹃雪雁盘问过两次。两个那里敢说？便是紫鹃欲向侍书打听消息，又怕越闹越真，黛玉更死得快了，所以见了侍书，毫不提起。那雪雁是他传话弄出这样缘故来，此时恨不得长出百十个嘴来说“我没说”，自然更不敢提起。到了这一天黛玉绝粒之日，紫鹃料无指望了，守着哭了会子，因出来偷向雪雁道：“你进屋里来，好好儿的守着他。我去回老太太、太太和二奶奶去。

After Mascara Jade resolved on self-destruction she went into a decline, until there came a day when she could eat nothing. For the first fortnight or so, when the old lady and others took it in turn to call, she had still been able to say a few words, but these last two days she remained virtually silent. Sometimes she lay in a coma, sometimes she had lucid spells. Wondering what had brought on this illness, her grandmother questioned her maids a couple of times. But how dared they tell her the truth? Nightingale wanted to ask Book Server to confirm the report but feared that would only hasten her young lady’s death, and so when she saw Book Server she held her tongue. And Snow Goose, as she knew that her tattling was the root of this trouble and only wished she could grow a hundred tongues to deny it, was of course even more afraid to speak out. The day that Mascara Jade abstained completely from food, Nightingale felt that the end had come and, for a while, remained weeping at her side. Then she came out and whispered to Snow Goose, “Go in and look after her carefully while I go to tell the mistresses.

今日这个光景，大非往常可比了。”雪雁答应，紫鹃自去。这里雪雁正在屋里伴着黛玉，见他昏昏沉沉，小孩子家那里见过这个样儿，只打谅如此便是死的光景了，心中又痛又怕，恨不得紫鹃一时回来才好。正怕着，只听窗外脚步走响，雪雁知是紫鹃回来，才放下心了，连忙站起来，掀着里间帘子等他。只见外面帘子响处，进来了一个人，却是侍书。那侍书是探春打发来看黛玉的，见雪雁在那里掀着帘子，便问道：“姑娘怎么样？”雪雁点点头儿，叫他进来。侍书跟进来，见紫鹃不在屋里，睄了睄黛玉，只剩得残喘微延，唬的惊疑不止，因问：“紫鹃姐姐呢？”雪雁道：“告诉上屋里去了。”

It's not what it used to be." Snowgoose promised, and Nightingale left. Here snow goose is in the house with Mascara Jade Forest, see him in a daze, children have seen such a look, I just think that is the scene of death, the heart of pain and fear, I wish Nightingale back for a while. As he was afraid, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the window. The snow goose knew it was Nightingale coming back, and he was relieved. He stood up and lifted the curtain between the inner room and waited for him. Outside the curtain rang, a man came in, but it was a page. Seeking-Spring Merchant had sent the servant to visit Mascara Jade Forest. Seeing the snow goose holding the curtains open, he asked, "How is the girl?" Snowgoose nodded and called him in. Book Server follow come in, see Nightingale is not in the house, Mascara Jade Forest, only have the remnants of breathing micro delay, frighten more than, because ask: "Nightingale elder sister?" The snow goose said, "Tell me to go to the house."

那雪雁此时只打谅黛玉心中一无所知了，又见紫鹃不在面前，因悄悄的拉了侍书的手问道：“你前日告诉我说的什么王大爷给这里宝二爷说了亲，是真话么？”侍书道：“怎么不真！”雪雁道：“多早晚放定的？”侍书道：“那里就放定了呢？那一天我告诉你时，是我听见小红说的。后来我到二奶奶那边去，二奶奶正和平姐姐说呢，道：‘那都是门客们借着这个事讨老爷的喜欢，往后好拉拢的意思。别说大太太说不好，就是大太太愿意，说那姑娘好，那大太太眼里看的出什么人来？再者，老太太心里早有了人了，就在咱们园子里的，大太太那里摸的着底呢？老太太不过因老爷的话，不得不问问罢咧。’

Snowgoose decided to take advantage of Nightingale’s absence to question Scribe. Taking her by the hand, she asked in a whisper: ‘Did you really mean what you said the other day about Mr Wang, and Master Bao’s betrothal?’ ‘Of course I did!’ replied Scribe. ‘When was it settled?’ ‘I never said it was! What I told you was just what I’d heard from Crimson. Later I was at Mrs Lian’s myself, and heard her say to Patience that the whole thing was something the Master’s literary gentlemen had thought up, to please him and provide themselves with a connection. As it happened Lady Xing didn’t even think it a good match. But even if she had approved, everyone knows how unreliable her judgement is. Besides, Her Old Ladyship already has someone else in mind for Master Bao, someone here in the Garden. Lady Xing had no idea of that, of course, and Her Old Ladyship only allowed them to go ahead with the normal inquiries for the Master’s sake.

又听见二奶奶说：‘宝玉的事，老太太总是要亲上作亲的，凭谁来说亲，横竖不中用。’”雪雁听到这里，也忘了神了，因说道：“这是怎么说！白白的送了我们这一位的命了！”侍书道：“这是从那里说起？”雪雁道：“你还不知道呢！前日都是我和紫鹃姐姐说来着，这一位听见了，就弄到这步田地了。”侍书道：“你悄悄儿的说罢，看仔细他听见了。”雪雁道：“人事都不省了，睄睄罢，左不过在这一两天了。”正说着，只见紫鹃掀帘进来说：“这还了得！你们有什么话，还不出去说，还在这里说！索性逼死他就完了。”侍书道：“我不信有这样奇事。”

"Then I heard the second madam Phoenix said, 'As for Precious Jade, the old lady is bound to choose a relative to be his wife. There's no other possibility no matter who wants to act as a matchmaker. '" When Snowgoose heard this, she also forgot herself and said, "Why? Our young lady’s dying for no reason!" "What do you mean?" Snowgoose said, "You don't know yet! It was me and sister Nightingale who talked about it the other day. She overheard about it, and that's why she's becoming increasingly depressed." Book Server said, "Speak quietly, in case she will hear you." Snowgoose replied, "She is unconscious and can hardly last for more than one or two days." Just then, Nightingale lifted the curtain and said, "What are you doing! What do you have to say here? Just go out and say anything you like. Or you're simply forcing her to die!" "I don't believe in such things," said Book Server.

紫鹃道：“好姐姐，不是我说，你又该恼了。你懂得什么呢！懂得也不传这些舌了。”这里三个人正说着，只听黛玉忽然又嗽了一声，紫鹃连忙跑到炕沿前站着，侍书雪雁也都不言语了。紫鹃弯着腰，在黛玉身后轻轻问道：“姑娘，喝口水罢？”黛玉微微答应了一声。雪雁连忙倒了半钟滚白水，紫鹃接了托着，侍书也走近前来。紫鹃和他摇头儿，不叫他说话，侍书只得咽住了。站了一回，黛玉又嗽了一声。紫鹃趁势问道：“姑娘，喝水呀？”黛玉又微微应了一声，那头似有欲抬之意，那里抬得起？紫鹃爬上炕去，爬在黛玉旁边，端着水，试了冷热，送到唇边，扶了黛玉的头，就到碗边，喝了一口。

Nightingale said: "Good sister, I didn't mean to say it, otherwise you should be annoyed again. What do you know! You won’t spread these words if you really know that." The three people here were talking, only to hear Mascara Jade cough again, Nightingale hurried to stand in front of the edge of the bed , Bookserver and Snowgoose were speechless. Nightingale bent over and asked softly behind Mascara Jade, "Miss, why don't you drink some water?" Daiyu agreed slightly. Snowgoose hurriedly poured half a cup of the hot water. Nightingale took it and held it, and Bookserver also approached. Nightingale shook her head with Nightingale, not telling her to speak, had to swallow. After standing for a while, Mascara Jade coughed again. Nightingale took advantage of the situation and asked, "Miss, do you want to drink water?" Mascara Jade responded slightly, she seemed to want to be lifted, where can it be lifted? Nightingale climbed onto the bed, crawled beside Mascara Jade, held the water, tested the heat and cold, brought it to her lips, supported Mascara Jade's head, went to the bowl, and took a sip.

紫鹃才要拿时，黛玉意思还要喝一口，紫鹃便托着那碗不动。黛玉又喝了一口，摇摇头儿，不喝了。喘了一口气，仍旧躺下。半日，微微睁眼，说道：“刚才说话不是侍书么？”紫鹃答应道：“是。”侍书尚未出去，因连忙过来问候。黛玉睁眼看了，点点头儿，又歇了一歇，说道：“回去问你姑娘好罢。”侍书见这番光景，只当黛玉嫌烦，只得悄悄的退出去了。原来那黛玉虽则病势沉重，心里却还明白。起先侍书雪雁说话时，他也模糊听见了一半句，却只作不知，也因实无精神答理。及听了雪雁侍书的话，才明白过前头的事情原是议而未成的。

As Mascara Jade was eager for more water, instead of removing the cup Nightingale held it there so she took another sip. Then Mascara Jade shook her head, meaning it's enough, and lay down again with a sigh. After a while, opening her eyes slightly, she asked: "Was that Book Server?" "Yes," said Nightingale. Book Server had not left, hurriedly came over to greet her. Mascara Jade opened her eyes and nodded to her. Taking a short break, she said, "When you return home, extend my regards to your mistress." Guessing that Mascara Jade wanted to rest alone, Book Server sneaked out. Now Mascara Jade was seriously ill but she had been clear in her mind. She had heard a sentence vaguely but she pretended to know nothing about it, owing to her weakness. From what she overheard she realized that the match proposed had not been agreed to.

又兼侍书说是凤姐说的，老太太的主意，亲上作亲，又是园中住着的，非自己而谁？因此一想，阴极阳生，心神顿觉清爽许多，所以才喝了两口水，又要想问侍书的话。恰好贾母、王夫人、李纨、凤姐听见紫鹃之言都赶着来看。黛玉心中疑团已破，自然不似先前寻死之意了。虽身体软弱，精神短少，却也勉强答应一两句了。凤姐因叫过紫鹃，问道：“姑娘也不至这样。这是怎么说，你这样唬人。”紫鹃道：“实在头里看着不好，才敢去告诉的。回来见姑娘竟好了许多，也就怪了。”贾母笑道：“你也别怪他。他懂得什么？看见不好就言语，这倒是他明白的地方。小孩子家不嘴懒脚懒就好。”

And then Book Server had quoted Splendid Phoenix as saying that Grandma Merchant intended to marry Precious Jade to one of his relatives from the girls in the Garden. But who could that be if not her? At this thought, her despair gave way to joy and her mind became clearer too. Therefore, she drank some water and even wanted to question Book Server. Just then the old lady arrived with Lady King, Silk Plum and Splendid Phoenix who had hurried over after hearing Nightingale's report. Mascara Jade, her fears set at rest now, naturally no longer wanted to die. Though still weak and low in spirits, she managed to in reply to their inquiries briefly. Seeing this, Splendid Phoenix called Nightingale over and asked her. "Your young lady's not in such a bad way after all. What do you mean by frightening us like that?" "Honestly, she really looked bad," replied Nightingale. "Otherwise I wouldn't have dared to brother you. But now, coming back, I'm quite amazed to find her so much better." "Don't take what she says so seriously. What does she understand?" said Grandma Merchant with a smile. "When something's wrong, it shows good sense to report it. I like a girl who's not too lazy to say a word or do anything."

说了一回，贾母等料着无妨，也就去了。正是：心病终须心药治，解铃还是系铃人。不言黛玉病渐减退。且说雪雁紫鹃背地里都念佛。雪雁向紫鹃说道：“亏他好了，只是病的奇怪，好的也奇怪。”紫鹃道：“病的倒不怪，就只好的奇怪。想来宝玉和姑娘必是姻缘，人家说的：‘好事多磨。’又说道：‘是姻缘棒打不回’。这样看起来，人心天意，他们两个竟是天配的了。再者，你想那一年，我说了林姑娘要回南去，把宝玉没急死了，闹得家翻宅乱；如今一句话又把这一个弄得死去活来：可不说的‘三生石上’百年前结下的么？”说着，两个悄悄的抿着嘴笑了一回。

Persuaded for once, they thought uselessly and went out. That was “Heart disease need drug treatment”. Precious Jade was recovered while Nightingale and Snowgoose prayed to God for many times. Snowgoose said to Nightingale: “What a relief she finnaly recovered! Her illness was odd so was her recovery!” Nightingale replied: “Her illness was not but her recovery is. I think that she and Baoyu must be destined for each other. However, the marrige can hardly be smooth and no one can prevent a match made in the heaven. So it seems that they are fated to marry. Another thing: remember that year when I told Precious Jade that Mascara Jade would be going back home? He went into a frenzy, and he nearly turned the whole household upside down!

雪雁又道：“幸亏好了！咱们明儿再别说了，就是宝玉娶了别的人家儿的姑娘，我亲见他在那里结亲，我也再不露一句话了。”紫鹃笑道：“这就是了。”不但紫鹃和雪雁在私下里讲究，就是众人也都知道黛玉的病也病得奇怪，好也好得奇怪，三三两两，唧唧哝哝议论着。不多几时，连凤姐儿也知道了，邢王二夫人也有些疑惑，倒是贾母略猜着了八九。那时正值邢王二夫人、凤姐等在贾母房中说闲话，说起黛玉的病来。贾母道：“我正要告诉你们，宝玉和林丫头是从小儿在一处的，我只说小孩子们，怕什么？以后时常听得林丫头忽然病，忽然好，都为有了些知觉了。

Snowgoose said again: "Fortunately, Mascara Jade Forest recovers from her illness! Let's not talk about it afterward. Even if I saw Precious Jade Merchant married a girl from another family, I won't say a word again." Nightingale smiled, "That's right." Not only did Nightingale and Snowgoose talk about it in private, but everyone thought that Mascara Jade Forest got ill and recovered from illness strangely, people gathered in groups muttering about it. After a while, even Splendid Phoenix King knew it, Lady City and Lady King also had some doubts, but Grandma Merchant probably had guessed the reason. At that time, Lady City and Lady King were gossiping with Splendid Phoenix King in Grandma Merchant's room and talking about Mascara Jade Forest's illness. Grandma Merchant said, "I was just about to tell you that Precious Jade and Mascara Jade Forest have been together since childhood. I just want to say that children don't need to be afraid? From then on, I often heard that Mascara Jade Forest often fell ill and got better unexpectedly, all that because she became conscious again." --[[User:Li Simin|Li Simin]] ([[User talk:Li Simin|talk]]) 14:20, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

所以我想他们若尽着搁在一块儿，毕竟不成体统。你们怎么说？”王夫人听了，便呆了一呆，只得答应道：“林姑娘是个有心计儿的。至于宝玉，呆头呆恼，不避嫌疑是有的。看起外面，却还都是个小孩儿形像。此时若忽然或把那一个分出园外，不是倒露了什么痕迹了么。古来说的：‘男大须婚，女大须嫁。’老太太想，倒是赶着把他们的事办办也罢了。”贾母皱了一皱眉，说道：“林丫头的乖僻，虽也是他的好处，我的心里不把林丫头配他，也是为这点子；况且林丫头这样虚弱，恐不是有寿的。只有宝丫头最妥。”

I think it's inappropriate to keep the two of them together all the time. What do you think? Lady King was stunned for a while, and replied, "Mascara Jade Forest is a scheming person. Precious Jade Merchant, on the other hand, was dumbfounded and did not shy away from staying with him. Both of them looked like children in appearance. But wouldn't it be too deliberate to let the two of them live in different places at this time? As the old saying goes: 'Both men and women need to get married when they are grown-ups.' I think you can consider about marriage for the two of them. "Grandma Merchant frowned and said, "Mascara Jade Forest has an eccentric personality. Although this is also her strength, I think it is also because of this that he doesn’t deserve Precious Jade Merchant."

王夫人道：“不但老太太这么想，我们也是这样。但林姑娘也得给他说了人家儿才好。不然，女孩儿家长大了，那个没有心事？倘或真与宝玉有些私心，若知道宝玉定下宝丫头，那倒不成事了。”贾母道：“自然先给宝玉娶了亲，然后给林丫头说人家。再没有先是外人、后是自己的。况且林丫头年纪到底比宝玉小两岁。依你们这样说，倒是宝玉定亲的话，不许叫他知道倒罢了。”凤姐便吩咐众丫头们道：“你们听见了？宝二爷定亲的话，不许混吵嚷；若有多嘴的，提防着他的皮！”贾母又向凤姐道：“凤哥儿，你如今自从身上不大好，也不大管园里的事了。我告诉你，须得经点儿心。

Lady King said, "Not only the Old Lady thinks so, but so do we. But we must arrange a marriage for Mascara Jade too. Otherwise, A growing girl is bound to have some secrets her heart. If she really has some affairs with Precious Jade and hears that he’s engaged to Precious Hairpin, we’re going to have a problem on our hands." Grandma Merchant said, "Naturally, we should arrange a marriage for Precious Jade first, and then arrange for Mascara Jade. Who ever heard of arranging a marriage for someone else’s child before one’s own? Besides, Mascara Jade is two years younger than Precious Jade. Still, there’s truth in what you said, so Precious Jade's engagement must not be made known to him." Sister Phoenix then commanded the maids: "Did you hear that? Mind you don’t gossip about Master Precious’s engagement. If anyone talks, she should be careful to be punished!" Grandma Merchant said to Sister Phoenix: "Sister Phoenix, since you are ill now, and do not take care of what goes on in the Garden. I'm telling you, you have to be careful.

"Not only the Old Lady thinks so, but so do we,"Lady King said, "But we must arrange a marriage for Mascara Jade too. Otherwise, A growing girl is bound to have some secrets her heart. If she really has some affairs with Precious Jade and hears that he’s engaged to Precious Hairpin, we’re going to have a problem on our hands." Grandma Merchant said, "Naturally, we should arrange a marriage for Precious Jade first, and then arrange for Mascara Jade. Who ever heard of arranging a marriage for someone else’s child before one’s own? Besides, Mascara Jade is two years younger than Precious Jade. Still, there’s truth in what you said, so Precious Jade's engagement must not be made known to him." Sister Phoenix then commanded the maids: "Did you hear that? Mind you don’t gossip about Master Precious’s engagement. If anyone talks, she should be careful to be punished!"

不但这个，就像前年那些人喝酒耍钱，都不是事。你还精细些，少不得多分点心儿，严紧严紧他们才好。况且我看他们也就只还服你。”凤姐答应了。娘儿们又说了一回话，方各自散了。从此，凤姐常到园中照料。一日，刚走进大观园，到了紫菱洲畔，只听见一个老婆子在那里嚷。凤姐走到跟前，那婆子才瞧见了，早垂手侍立，口里请了安。凤姐道：“你在这里闹什么？”婆子道：“蒙奶奶们派我在这里看守花果，我也没有差错，不料邢姑娘的丫头说我们是贼。”凤姐道：“为什么呢？”婆子道：“昨儿我们家的黑儿跟着我到这里顽了一回，他不知道，又往邢姑娘那边去瞧了一瞧，我就叫他回去了。

Not only this, but also things just like the year before those servants were drinking and gambling are disgraceful.You observed careful than the rest of us, so we are bond to keep them under stricter control.They are just obedient to you."Sister Splendid acquiesced.And after a little talk, they dispersed.From then on, Sister Splendid often went to the check up the garden.One day, just as she entered in, she heard an old woman at Purple Water Chestnut Island speaking loudly. When Xi-feng came up to her, the old woman caught sight of her and stood by her side with her hands down. She greeted her respects, and Xi-feng said:"What are you arguing for?" The old woman said:"The Grainy Meng put me in charge of the flower and fruits here.I haven't made any mistakes, yet Lady King accused me were thieves!" "Why?"Sister Splendid said."My son followed me come here to play yesterday, he was unfamiliar with here, and he had a look at Lady King, then I let him come back home."

今儿早起，听见他们丫头说，丢了东西了。我问他丢了什么，他就问起我来了。”凤姐道：“问了你一声，也犯不着生气呀。”婆子道：“这里园子，到底是奶奶家里的，并不是他们家里的。我们都是奶奶派的，贼名儿怎么敢认呢？”凤姐照脸啐了一口，厉声道：“你少在我跟前唠唠叨叨的！你在这里照看，姑娘丢了东西，你们就该问哪，怎么说出这些没道理的话来？把老林叫了来，撵出他去。”丫头们答应了。只见邢岫烟赶忙出来，迎着凤姐陪笑道：“这使不得，没有的事，事情早过去了。”凤姐道：“姑娘，不是这个话。倒不讲事情，这名分上太岂有此理了。”

Early this morning, I heard their maid say that they lost something. Then, I asked what it was, and she began to ask me about that," she said. "You don't need to be angry about their asking," Sister Phoenix said. "This Garden belongs to the Lady's family, not to hers. We serve the Lady, so how dare I admit the slander of being a thief?" the old woman said. Sister Phoenix spat at her face and spoke to her with a harsh tone. "Stop your nonsense! You take care of this place, so you should be responsible for that if the mistress lost something. How could you say something like this? Call Old Forest to send her out," she said. At this moment, Cave Cloud City came out in a hurry. "There is no need to do this. It's nothing, and it's gone," she said to Sister Phoenix with smile. "Mistress. it's not this case. Put this thing away for a moment, and the servants need to know their place," Sister Phoenix said.

This morning, her maid told me something was missing. When I asked what it was, she started questioning me!”“That’s nothing to get so worked up about.”“Well, this Garden belongs to our mistress’ family, not to theirs. It’s our mistress who put us in charge here; so how dare they call us thieves?”Splendid Phoenix King spat in her face. “Don’t give me that talk!” she said sternly. “You’re here to keep an eye on things. When a young lady loses some�thing, you should look into it. How can you maunder in this senseless fashion?”She ordered her maids to fetch Lin Zhixiao’s wife to drive the woman away. At once Tadpole Marshgrass came out to greet her with a smile.“Please don’t,” she said. “It’s of no account — over and done with.”“That’s not the point, cousin,” said Splendid Phoenix King. “Quite apart from your losing something, she’s gone too far, forgetting her place like that.”Seeing that the woman was kneeling to beg for pardon, Tadpole Marshgrass invited Splendid Phoenix King in to sit down.“I know these creatures,”Splendid Phoenix King went on. “I’m the only one of the mistresses they treat with any respect.”--[[User:Li Zijie|Li Zijie]] ([[User talk:Li Zijie|talk]]) 13:59, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

岫烟见婆子跪在地下告饶，便忙请凤姐到里边去坐。凤姐道：“他们这种人，我知道他，除了我，其余都没上没下的了。”岫烟再三替他讨饶，只说自己的丫头不好。凤姐道：“我看着邢姑娘的分上，饶你这一次。”婆子才起来磕了头，又给岫烟磕了头，才出去了。这里二人让了坐，凤姐笑问道：“你丢了什么东西了？”岫烟笑道：“没有什么要紧的，是一件红小袄儿，已经旧了的。我原叫他们找，找不着就罢了。这小丫头不懂事，问了那婆子一声，那婆子自然不依了。这都是小丫头糊涂不懂事，我也骂了几句。已经过去了，不必再提了。”
Still Tadpole Marshgrass begged her to let the woman off, saying her own maid was to blame.
“Well, for Miss Xing’s sake then, I’ll overlook it this time,” conceded Splendid Phoenix King.The woman kowtowed her thanks to them both and went off, where�upon they sat down.“What have you lost?” asked Splendid Phoenix King with a smile.“Nothing much, just a red jacket, an old one. When I told them to look for it and they couldn’t find it, I said it didn’t matter. But my maid is so silly she asked that woman about it, and of course that put her back up. It’s all this silly girl’s fault, and I’ve given her a scolding, so that’s that. We may as well forget about it.

凤姐把岫烟内外一瞧，看见虽有些皮绵衣服，已是半新不旧的，未必能暖和，他的被窝多半是薄的。至于房中桌上摆设的东西，就是老太太拿来的，却一些不动，收拾的干干净净。凤姐心上便狠爱敬他，说道：“一件衣服，原不要紧。这时候冷，又是贴身的，怎么就不问一声儿呢？这撒野的奴才，了不得了！”说了一回，凤姐出来，各处去坐了一坐，就回去了。到了自己房中，叫平儿取了一件大红洋绉的小袄儿，一件松花色绫子一抖珠儿的小皮袄，一条宝蓝盘锦镶花绵裙，一件佛青银鼠褂子，包好叫人送去。那时岫烟被那老婆子聒噪了一场，虽有凤姐来压住，心上终是不安。
Splendid Pheonix sized up Cave Cloud. She found that though Cave Cloud wore leathered and cotton-padded clothes, the clothes were all worn-out and might not be able to keep warm. And her quilt might be thin. As for the things on her table, those brought by Grandma, she didn't use them at all and tidied them up on her table. Splendid Pheonix then sincerely respected and liked her. She then said, "A coat is no big deal. It's cold recently and clothes are to be worn. Why didn't you tell us. Those damn servants. They are totally out of the line." After saying, Splendid Pheonix walked outside and went around each place before returning. After returning to her own room, she asked Patience to brought a red coat, a brown coat with decorative beads, a royal blue cotton thermal dress and a green unlined garment. After packing these clothes up, she asked a servant to send them to Cave Cloud. Cave Cloud was bullied by those nanny servants. Though Splendid Pheonix offered her help, she was still worried.

想起“许多姐妹们在这里，没有一个下人敢得罪他的，独自我这里，他们言三语四，刚刚凤姐来碰见”。想来想去，终是没意思，又说不出来。正在吞声饮泣，看见凤姐那边的丰儿送衣服过来。岫烟一看，决不肯受。丰儿道：“奶奶吩咐我说：‘姑娘要嫌是旧衣裳，将来送新的来。’”岫烟笑谢道：“承奶奶的好意。只是因我丢了衣服，他就拿来，我断不敢受。拿回去，千万谢你们奶奶！承你奶奶的情，我算领了。”倒拿个荷包给了丰儿，那丰儿只得拿了去了。不多时，又见平儿同着丰儿过来，岫烟忙迎着问了好，让了坐。平儿笑说道：“我们奶奶说：姑娘特外道的了不得！”

I remembered that "Many sisters here dare not to offend her, except me. They all bullied me, but Splendid Phoenix happened to meet this matter." Thinking about it, she found no need of complaining but felt too sad to say something. She was sobbing and then saw Feng'er, a servant of Splendid Phoenix, sending clothes over. Cave Cloud looked at it and refused to accept it. Feng Er said, "The lady told me: 'if you refuse to accept the used clothes and we will send new ones in the near future.' Cave Cloud smiled and thanked her, "A lot of thanks to the lady's kindness. I won't take it, just because I lost my clothes. Please take it back and send my thanks to your lady. I gratefully accept her kindness. " And then she took a purse and gave it to Feng'er, and Feng'er seeing her had made her mind took it back." Not long after, Patience came with Feng'er again, and Cave Cloud hurriedly greeted them and offer them seats. Patience smiled and said, "Our lady said: 'you are very impersonal!'”

岫烟道：“不是外道，实在不过意。”平儿道：“奶奶说，姑娘要不收这衣裳，不是嫌太旧，就是瞧不起我们奶奶。刚才说了：我要拿回去，奶奶不依我呢。”岫烟红着脸笑谢道：“这样说了，叫我不敢不收。”又让了一回茶。平儿同丰儿回去，将到凤姐那边，碰见薛家差来的一个老婆子，接着问好。平儿便问道：“你那里来的？”婆子道：“那边太太、姑娘叫我来请各位太太、奶奶、姑娘们的安。我才刚在奶奶前问起姑娘来，说姑娘到园中去了。可是从邢姑娘那里来么？”平儿道：“你怎么知道？”婆子道：“方才听见说，真真的二奶奶和姑娘们的行事叫人感念！”

Cave Cloud said:"No, I just think I don't deserve that." Patience said:" Grandma said you just think it's too old or look down her if you don't accept it. And just I've told you that Grandma won't be happy if i bring it back." Cave Cloud smiled with blushing face:"Ok, I'll keep it." Then they drunk the tea, and Patience came back with Abundance.

Patience smiled a little, "Why don’t you stay for a cup of tea?" "I got things to do. I'll pay a visit some other day."The old woman replied as she started to walk away. Patience returned and reported it to Sister Phoenix. The other side, Marshgrass’ Family was totally stirred by Goldish Osmanthus. When the old women came back and brought up what happened to Cave Cloud Marshgrass, both Aunt Marshgrass and Precious Hairpin shed tears. "It’s brother not being home that makes her miserable. To our comfort, Sister Phoenix has been good to her. We need to pay more attention to her since she’s of the family too.” said Precious Hairpin.

As we travelled here together, I know her character and what she's like. Heaven is really unjust, giving a spoilt bitch like Xia Jingui money while a girl like Xiuyan is so badly off.

It’s keeping that sweet, gentle girl so sad and lonely!” His reflections were cut short by the arrival of Precious Toad with a hamper which she put on the table, smiling.

薛蝌一则秉性忠厚，二则到底年轻，只是向来不见金桂和宝蟾如此相待，心中想到刚才宝蟾说为薛蟠之事，也是情理，因说道：“果子留下罢，这个酒儿，姐姐只管拿回去。我向来的酒上实在狠有限，挤住了，偶然喝一钟；平日无事，是不能喝的。难道大奶奶和姐姐还不知道么？”宝蟾道：“别的我作得主，独这一件事，我可不敢应。大奶奶的脾气儿，二爷是知道的：我拿回去，不说二爷不喝，倒要说我不尽心了。”薛蝌没法，只得留下。宝蟾方才要走，又到门口往外看看，回过头来向着薛蟾一笑；又用手指着里面说道：“他还只怕要来亲自给你道乏呢。”

Tadpole Marshgrass was a simple, honest young fellow. He had never been treated like this by Goldish Osmanthus and Precious Toad before; yet as the latter said it was to thank him for helping Dragon Marshgrass, this seemed to him quite natural. “Leave the dishes, sister,” he said. “But please take back the wine. I really can’t drink much, just a cup occasionally when I’m forced to, but ordinarily I never drink. Surely your mistress and you knew that?” “I can use my own discretion in other matters,” she replied, “but I can’t obey you in this. You know what our mistress is like. If I took it back, she wouldn’t think it’s because you don’t drink but because I’d been remiss.” So Tadpole Marshgrass had to let her leave the wine. Then Precious Toad went to the door and peeped outside. Turning back to smile at him, she pointed towards the inner rooms. “I dare say he’ll be coming herself to thank you,” she said.

薛蝌不知何意，反倒讪讪的起来，因说道：“姐姐替我谢大奶奶罢。天气寒，看凉着。再者，自己叔嫂也不必拘这些个礼。”宝蟾也不答言，笑着走了。薛蝌始而以为金桂为薛蟠之事，或者真是不过意，备此酒果给自己道乏，也是有的。及见了宝蟾这种鬼鬼祟祟、不尴不尬的光景，也觉了几分，却自己回心一想：“他到底是嫂子的名分，那里就有别的讲究了呢？或者宝蟾不老成，自己不好意思怎么样，却指着金桂的名儿，也未可知。然而到底是哥哥的屋里人，也不好……”忽又一转念：“那金桂素性为人，毫无闺阁理法，况且有时高兴，打扮得妖调非常，自以为美，又焉知不是怀着坏心呢？Tadpole Marshgrass had no idea about it, but merely snapping back with the words,"Please oblige me to thank for her. You'd better go back for the cold whether outside in case of catching a cold. Besides, there's no need to stand on ceremony for they are my elder brother and sister-in-law." Hearing that, Precious Toad left with no words but laughter. At first, Tadpole Marshgrass thought this fruit wine was indeed prepared by Goldish Osmanthus for his help for Dragon Marshgrass. And such conjecture was fueled more at seeing Precious Toad's creepy and embarrassing behavior, but he then thought to himself,"Is there any difference about this? She eventually was a maid of sister-in-law. Maybe Precious Toad is too shy herself for she is still too young, thus doing this in the name of Goldish Osmanthus' order. However, she is still a part of elder brother's family, it's not quite suitable..." He then changed his mind,"Goldish Osmanthus usually shows no respects for law and bad manners, and would dress up thinking that she is a beauty when delighted, for who can assure there's no evil intentions with her."

不然，就是他和琴妹妹也有了什么不对的地方儿，所以设下这个毒法儿，要把我拉在浑水里，弄一个不清不白的名儿，也未可知。”想到这里，索性倒怕起来。正在不得主意的时候，忽听窗外“噗哧”的笑了一声，把薛蝌倒唬了一跳。话说薛蝌正在狐疑，忽听窗外一笑，唬了一跳，心中想道：“不是宝蟾，定是金桂。只不理他们，看他们有什么法儿。”听了半日，却又寂然无声。自己也不敢吃那酒果，掩上房门，刚要脱衣时，只听见窗纸上微微一响。薛蝌此时被宝蟾鬼混了一阵，心中七上八下，竟不知是如何是好，听见窗纸微响，细看时又无动静，自己反倒疑心起来，掩了怀，坐在灯前，呆呆的细想；
Otherwise， there would be something wrong between Goldish Osmanthus and Precious Strings, so it would be impossible to know if he set up this poisonous method to drag me into muddy waters and damage my reputation. " When he thought of this, he just got scared. When he was out of his mind, he suddenly heard a giggle outside the window which took him aback. When Tadpole Marshgrass was suspicious, he suddenly listened to a smile outside the window and jumped, thinking to himself, "If it's not Precious Toad, it must be Goldish Osmanthus. Just ignore them and see what they can do. " Tadpole Marshgrass listened for a long time, but it was silent again.
He dared not eat the wine and closed the door. When he was about to undress, he only heard a slight sound on the window paper. Tadpole Marshgrass was fooled around by the Precious Toad for a while. He was so upset that he didn't know what to do. He heard the window paper rattling slightly. However, when he looked at it, there was no movement. Instead, he became suspicious, sat in front of the lamp, and thought blankly with tight clothes.

又把那果子拿了一块，翻来覆去的细看。猛回头，看见窗上纸湿了一块。走过来觑着眼看时，冷不防外面往里一吹，把薛蝌唬了一大跳。听得“吱吱”的笑声，薛蝌连忙把灯吹灭了，屏息而卧。只听外面一个人说道：“二爷为什么不喝酒吃果子，就睡了？”这句话仍是宝蟾的语音，薛蝌只不作声装睡。又隔有两句话时，又听得外面似有恨声道：“天下那里有这样没造化的人！”薛蝌听了是宝蟾，又似是金桂的语音，这才知道他们原来是这一番意思。翻来覆去，直到五更后才睡着了。刚到天明，早有人来扣门。薛蝌忙问：“是谁？”外面也不答应。

Then he picked up a piece of desert and looked at it over and over. Suddenly he turned his back and found that part of the window paster paper was wet. So he walked close and peered at it, only to be taken aback all of a sudden by someone’s blowing through the window. Hearing the giggle outside, Tadpole Marshgrass went to blow out the candle and then lied on his bed while holding his breath. At that time, someone outside the room said, “ Why does he go to bed without drinking or eating anything?” It still sounds like Precious Toad’s voice, but Tadpole Marshgrass pretended to be asleep without saying a word. After a while, it seemed that someone outside said grudgingly, “ How could he be such a sissy!” Judging by the voice, he thought it would be Precious Toad or Goldish Osmanthus. Then he figured out what they really meant. He couldn’t sleep, but kept tossing and turning in bed until the five watches of the night. As soon as the dawn broke, someone knocked at his door. He asked, “ Who is that?” But no one ever gave him a reply.

薛蝌只得起来，开了门看时，却是宝蟾，拢着头发，掩着怀，穿一件片锦边琵琶襟小紧身，上面系一条松花绿半新的汗巾，下面并未穿裙，正露着石榴红洒花夹裤，一双新绣红鞋。原来宝蟾尚未梳洗，恐怕人见，赶早来取家伙。薛蝌见他这样打扮便走进来，心中又是一动，只得陪笑问道：“怎么这样早就起来了？”宝蟾把脸红着，并不答言，只管把果子折在一个碟子里，端着就走。薛蝌见他这般，知是昨晚的原故，心里想道：“这也罢了。倒是他们恼了，索性死了心，也省得来缠。”于是把心放下，唤人舀水洗脸，自己打算在家里静坐两天，一则养养心神，二则出去怕人找他。

Tadpole Marshgrass had no alternative but to get up to open the door, only to find Precious Toad standing in front of him. With hair pulled back and upper garment unbuttoned, Precious Toad was dressed in a straight-jacket adorned with Biwa collar and brocades, on top of this straight-jacket was attached with a nearly-new green handkerchief. Besides, she wore no skirt but a pair of garnet pants embroidered with flowers and new red embroidered shoes. It turned out that she had not freshened up yet, and being afraid of being encountered with others, she just fetched things as early as possible. It hit Tadpole Marshgrass when he was catching the sight of her such appearance. Then, with face wreathe in smiles, he asked, "Why are you up so early?" Face reddenng with embarrassment Precious Toad didn't reply but to put fruits into a saucer and just carried them away. Knowing the reason why she acted like this, Tadpole Marshgrass thought to himself, "Forget about it! It seems they are annoyed and just make them think no more of this matter so as not to bother me." Therefore, he was relieved and ordered a footboy to bring him water to wash his face then. And he planned to stay in home for two?days without any cogitations, cause he wanted to conserve his energy, and also feared that someone would look for him for another.

原来和薛蟠好的那些人，因见薛家无人，只有薛蝌在那里办事，年纪又轻，便生许多觊觎之心。也有想插在里头做跑腿的；也有能做状子的，认得一二个书役的，要给他上下打点的；甚至有叫他在内趁钱的；也有造作谣言恐吓的：种种不一。薛蝌见了这些人，远远躲避，又不敢面辞，恐怕激出意外之变，只好藏在家中听候传详，不提。且说金桂昨夜打发宝蟾送了些酒果去探探薛蝌的消息，宝蟾回来，将薛蝌的光景一一的说了。金桂见事有些不大投机，便怕白闹一场，反被宝蟾瞧不起；欲把两三句话遮饰，改过口来，又可惜了这个人，心里倒没了主意，怔怔的坐着。

Dragon Marshgrass's former friends now have inordinate ambitions about his family, seeing that there was no one but young Tadpole Marshgrass being in charge of family affairs. Some of them would like to be placed in this mansion as errands runners, some who could write complaints volunteered to bribe officials for Tadpole Marshgrass depending on several clerical acquaintances, some even advised him to take this opportunity to make money and some hectored him with rumors. In the face of such people, Tadpole Marshgrass could only avoid them from afar and dared not refuse them in person for fear of unexpected changes. Therefore, he had to hide in his home and wait for calls. Last night, Goldish Osmanthus sent Precious Toad to inquire about news of Tadpole Marshgrass by delivering some wine and fruit there. When Precious Toad came back, she reported his situation to Goldish Osmanthus in full. Being displeased with the way things were going, Goldish Osmanthus was afraid that Precious Toad would look down on her if she made a scene for nothing. So, she wanted to correct herself by covering up some wrong words, but felt sorry for Tadpole Marshgrass if she did so. Considering that, she was at a loss what to do next and sat there in a trance.

那知宝蟾亦知薛蟠难以回家，正欲寻个头路，因怕金桂拿他，所以不敢透漏。今见金桂所为，先已开了端了，他便乐得借风使船，先弄薛蝌到手，不怕金桂不依，所以用言挑拨。见薛蝌似非无情，又不甚兜揽，一时也不敢造次。后来见薛蝌吹灯自睡，大觉扫兴，回来告诉金桂，看金桂有甚方法，再作道理。及见金桂怔怔的，似乎无技可施，他也只得陪金桂收拾睡了。夜里那里睡得着？翻来复去，想出一个法子来：不如明儿一早起来，先去取了家伙，却自己换上一两件动人的衣服，也不梳洗，越显出一番娇媚来；只看薛蝌的神情，自己反倒装出一番恼意，索性不理他；

Precious Toad did not expect Dragon Marshgrass back and was casting about for a lover, but had not disclosed this to Goldish Osmanthus for fear of the consequences. Now that her mistress had made the first move, she saw it as a good chance to pre-empt Tadpole Marshgrass herself, for then Goldish Osmanthus could hardly raise any objection. That was why she had spoken provocatively to him. When he seemed neither entirely unresponsive nor very forthcoming either, she had hesitated to do anything more rash. Later, when he blew out the light and lay down to sleep, she went back, very disappointed, to tell Goldish Osmanthus and see what she would do. Now that her mistress kept silent as if at a loss, she had to help her to bed and retire herself. But that night how could she sleep? She tossed and turned until she hit on a plan. She would get up first thing the next morning to fetch the hamper, alluringly dressed and with her hair uncombed to reveal her drowsy charms. While watching Tadpole Marshgrass's reaction she would put on a show of anger and ignore him;

那薛蝌若有悔心，自然移船泊岸，不愁不先到手。及至见了薛蝌，仍是昨晚这般光景，并无邪僻之意，自己只得以假为真，端了碟子回来；却故意留下酒壶，以为再来搭转之地。只见金桂问道：“你拿东西去，有人碰见么？”宝蟾道：“没有。”“二爷也没问你什么？”宝蟾道：“也没有。”金桂因一夜不曾睡着，也想不出一个法子来，只得回思道：“若作此事，别人可瞒，宝蟾如何能瞒？不如我分惠于他，他自然没有不尽心的。我又不能自去，少不得要他作脚，倒不如和他商量一个稳便主意。”因带笑说道：“你看二爷到底是个怎么样的人？”

While watching Tadpole Marshgrass‘s reaction she would put on a show of anger and ignore him; but if he showed regret, naturally she would smooth his way and then she could get him first she was sure of that. However, when she tried to execute it, he behaved just as properly as the previous night. All she could do was act as if really affronted and take the dishes back.#3She deliberately left the wine-pot, though, to provide an excuse for returning. Dragon Marshgrass asked her, “Did anyone see you fetch those things?” Precious Toad said：“ No, madam.” “Did Master Tadpole Marshgrass ask you anything?” ‘No.” Precious Toad replied. Since Jingui had lain awake all night unable to think of a plan she now decided, “If I go ahead with this affair, I may be able to keep it a secret from others, but how can I hide it from her?” Besides, I can't seek out Tadpole Marshgrass myself, I'll need her as go-between. So I may as well work out a sound plan with her.” She therefore asked with a smile, “What is your honest opinion of Master Tadpole Marshgrass?

宝蟾道：“倒像个糊涂人。”金桂听了笑道：“你如何说起爷们来了？”宝蟾也笑道：“他辜负奶奶的心，我就说得他！”金桂道：“他怎么辜负我的心？你倒得说说。”宝蟾道：“奶奶给他好东西吃，他倒不吃，这不是辜负奶奶的心么？”说着，却把眼溜着金桂一笑。金桂道：“你别胡想！我给他送东西，为大爷的事不辞劳苦，我所以敬他；又怕人说瞎话，所以问你。你这些话向我说，我不懂是什么意思。”宝蟾笑道：“奶奶别多心。我是跟奶奶的，还有两个心么？但是事情要密些，倘或声张起来，不是顽的。”

Bao Toad said, "It's like a stupid person." Jin Gui listened and laughed, "How do you talk about them?" Bao Toad also laughed: "He doesn't respect Grandma,so I will blame him!" Jin Gui said, "How did he disrespect me?" You have to talk about it. Bao Toad said, "Grandma gave him good things to eat, but he didn't eat them, isn't this a disgrace to Grandma's goodwill?" He said, but he smiled at Jin Gui. Jin Gui said, "Don't think about it! I sent him things, and I worked tirelessly for the affairs of the great master, so I respected him; and I was afraid that people would talk nonsense, so I asked you.

金桂也觉得脸飞红了，因说道：“你这个丫头，就不是个好货！想来你心里看上了，却拿我作筏子，是不是呢？”宝蟾道：“只是奶奶那么想罢咧，我倒是替奶奶难受。奶奶要真瞧二爷好，我倒有个主意。奶奶想，‘那个耗子不偷油’呢？他也不过怕事情不密，大家闹出乱子来不好看。依我想：奶奶且别性急，时常在他身上不周不备的去处，张罗张罗。他是个小叔子，又没娶媳妇儿，奶奶就多尽点心儿，和他贴个好儿，别人也说不出什么来。过几天，他感奶奶的情，他自然要谢候奶奶。那时奶奶再备点东西儿在咱们屋里，我帮着奶奶灌醉了他，怕跑了他？

Golden Osmanthu also felt his face quickly red, so said: "You girl, is not good! I think you have a crush on him in your heart, but you are using me as a raft, aren't you?" Precious Toad said: "It's just that grandmother thinks so much, but I feel bad for you. I have an idea for you if you really think the second master is good. Grandma thought, 'every rat steal oil' He is also afraid that the things didn’t do well and make a fool. I think: you are not be impatient, and help him deal with things. He is a brother-in-law, and not married. If you do more and get won well with him , others can not say anything. In a few days, he would appreciate you. At that time, You prepared some things in our house, I helped Grandma to get him drunk, so he won’t leave.

Goldish Osmanthus also blushed, saying "You are really a wicked girl to take advantage of me like that, aren’t you? Oh you must like him!" Precious Toad said, "Well that’s only your opinion, Mistress and I feel so sorry for you. If you really fancy him, I can help you with it——as there’s no cat in the world which doesn’t eat fish, there’s no man in the world that never cheats. He is merely afraid that he would have his reputation ruined once the affair is known. I’ll say that you’d better be patient, and help him deal with the things which he neglected. I’m sure being nice to an unmarried brother-in-law won’t incur much gossips. Day after day he would be bound to pay a visit and thank you for your kindness. When that day comes, you can prepare a little something in your room so that I may help you to get him drunk and he may not leave then.--[[User:Xiao Dongqing|Xiao Dongqing]] ([[User talk:Xiao Dongqing|talk]]) 01:51, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

他要不应，咱们索性闹起来，就说他调戏奶奶。他害怕，他自然得顺着咱们的手儿。他再不应，他也不是人，咱们也不至白丢了脸面。奶奶想怎么样？”金桂听了这话，两颧早已红晕了，笑骂道：“小蹄子，你倒偷过多少汉子的是的，怪不得大爷在家时，离不开你。”宝蟾把嘴一撇，笑说道：“罢哟！人家倒替奶奶拉纤，奶奶倒往我们说这个话咧。”从此，金桂一心笼络薛蝌，倒无心混闹了，家中也少觉安静。当日宝蟾自去取了酒壶，仍是稳稳重重，一脸的正气。薛蝌偷眼看了，反倒后悔，疑心“或者是自己错想了他们，也未可知。

If he still rejects, we can make a big deal out of it blaming him for trying to hook you up. So long as he’s afraid, he is bound to obey. If he still refuses, then we still won’t lose our faces for nothing with his reputation ruined anyway. What do you say, Mistress?" Goldish Osmanthus flushed at her maids’ words, teasing "Sounds like you slut are very familiar with the affair things! No wonder my husband can’t live without you while at home." Precious Toad pouted as she joshed, "Never mind then. It seems someone just doesn’t know who’s good to her." Since then, Goldish Osmanthus stopped making a scene at home and shifted her focus to fawning on Tadpole Marshgrass. Precious Toad went to pick up the wine pot the other day, solemn and just. Taking a glimpse of her manners, Tadpole Marshgrass regretted his behavior and even thought that he himself might have misunderstood them.

果然如此，倒辜负了他这一番美意，保不住日后倒要和自己也闹起来，岂非自惹的呢？”过了两天，甚觉安静。薛蝌遇见宝蟾，宝蟾便低头走了，连眼皮儿也不抬；遇见金桂，金桂却一盆火儿的赶着。薛蝌见这般光景，反倒过意不去。这且不表。且说宝钗母女觉得金桂几天安静，待人忽亲热起来，一家子都为罕事。薛姨妈十分欢喜，想到：“必是薛蟠娶这媳妇时冲犯了什么，才败坏了这几年。目今闹出这样事来，亏得家里有钱，贾府出力，方才有了指望。媳妇儿忽然安静起来，或者是蟠儿转过运气来了，也未可知。”于是自己心里倒以为希有之奇。

这日饭后，扶了同贵过来，到金桂房里瞧瞧。走到院中，只听一个男人和金桂说话。同贵知机，便说道：“大奶奶，老太太过来了。”说着，已到门口，只见一个人影儿在房门后一躲。薛姨妈一吓，倒退了出来。金桂道：“太太请里头坐。没有外人。他就是我的过继兄弟，本住在屯里，不惯见人。因没有见过太太，今儿才来，还没去请太太的安。”薛姨妈道：“既是舅爷，不妨见见。”金桂叫兄弟出来见了薛姨妈，作了一个揖，问了好。薛姨妈也问了好，坐下叙起话来。薛姨妈道：“舅爷上京几时了？”那夏三道：“前月我妈没有人管家，把我过继来的。前日才进京，今日来瞧姐姐。”

One day after lunch, leaning on Maid Wealth’s arm, she went to call on Goldish Osmanthus. When they entered the courtyard they heard her talking with a man. Maid Wealth was smart enough to call out, “Madam, here’s the old lady to see you!”By now they had reached the door. The sight of a figure flitting behind it made Aunt Marshgrass step back in alarm. “Please come in, madam!” called Goldish Osmanthus. “This is no stranger here but my stepbrother. He’s a villager, unused to company. As he has never called on you yet, he came today meaning to pay his respects.”“If it’s your brother,” said Aunt Marshgrass, “ask him to join us.”Goldish Osmanthus told the young man, whose name was Summer Three, to come out to meet her mother-in-law, and he raised clasped hands to greet her. She returned his greetings and they sat down to talk.“How long have you been in the capital?” asked Aunt Marshgrass.“My stepmother adopted me a couple of months ago, as she had no man in the house to see to things. I only came to the capital the day before yesterday; so I called on my sister today.”

薛姨妈看那人不尴尬，于是略坐坐儿，便起身道：“舅爷坐着罢。”回头向金桂道：“舅爷头上末下的来，留在咱们这里吃了饭再去罢。”金桂答应着，薛姨妈自去了。金桂见婆婆去了，便向夏三道：“你坐着。今日可是过了明路的了，省得我们二爷查考你。我今日还叫你买些东西，只别叫众人看见。”夏三道：“这个交给我就完了。你要什么，只要有钱，我就买得来。”金桂道：“且别说嘴，你买上了当，我可不收。”说着，二人又笑了一回，然后金桂陪夏三吃了晚饭，又告诉他买的东西，又嘱咐一回，夏三自去。从此夏三往来不绝。虽有个年老的门上人，知是舅爷，也不常回，从此生出无限风波。

As Aunt Marshgrass saw he looked rather embarrassed, after sitting there for a while she got up. “Just stay longer,” she said, then turned to tell Goldish Osmanthus, “because this is your brother’s first visit here, you must invite him for a meal.”Goldish Osmanthus assented to this and Aunt Marshgrass left. As soon as she had gone Goldish Osmanthus told Summer Three, “Sit down. Now we’re above-board, so Master Ke won’t have to pry into our affairs. I want you to buy something for me today, but don’t let anyone see it.”“Just leave it to me. If you have the money, I can get whatever you want.”“Don’t boast! If you get overcharged I’m not having it.”When they had exchanged some more banter, Goldish Osmanthus kept Summer Three for dinner, then gave him her commission and some instructions, then he left. Subsequently, Summer Three was a frequent visitor. And the old gatekeeper, having heard that this was Goldish Osmanthus’s brother, usually neglected to report his arrival. This led to endless trouble later.

Aunt Xue could see that he was rather an uncouth sort of fellow, and did not like to stay long. #2§‘I must be going,' she said. “Don't get up.” Then turning to Jin-gui: “As this is your brother's first visit, please invite him to stay for dinner.”Goldish Osmanthus assented to this and Aunt Marshgrass left.

这是后话不表。一日，薛蟠有信寄回，薛姨妈打开叫宝钗看时，上写：男在县里也不受苦，母亲放心。但昨日县里书办说，府里已经准详，想是我们的情到了。岂知府里详上去，道里反驳下来。亏得县里主文相公好，即刻做了回文顶上去了，那道里却把知县申饬。现在道里要亲提，若一上去，又要吃苦。必是道里没有托到。母亲见字，快快托人求道爷去。还叫兄弟快来，不然，就要解道。银子短不得。火速，火速！薛姨妈听了，又哭了一场，自不必说。薛蝌一面劝慰，一面说道：“事不宜迟。”
But we anticipate.One day a letter arrived from Xue Pan.Aunt Xue opened it and sent for Bao-chai to read it to her.This is what it said: ‘Dear Mother, I am being reasonably treated here in prison, so please set your mind at rest.I had some bad news yesterday however, from the clerk of the court. My sentence was approved at the prefectural level - I presume the family had been in touch with the prefect.But when the case came up before the circuit court, the Taotai rejected the judgement.The secretary here at the yamen has been very helpful and has sent an immediate petition in defence of the original judgement. But the Taotai has issued an official statement reprimanding the local mandarin for malpractice. He wants me to appear before the circuit court.If I do, I could be in trouble again.We can't have approached the Taotai yet.Please send someone to do this as soon as my letter reaches you.And send Cousin Ke here at once.

薛姨妈等大家略略放心。早惊动荣宁两府的人，先是凤姐打发人送十香返魂丹来，随后王夫人又送至宝丹来，贾母邢王二夫人以及尤氏等都打发丫头来问候，却都不叫宝玉知道。一连治了七八天，终不见效。还是他自己想起“冷香丸”，吃了三丸，才得病好。后来宝玉也知道了，因病好了，没有瞧去。那时薛蝌又有信回来。薛姨妈看了，怕宝钗耽忧，也不叫他知道，自己来求王夫人，并述了一会子宝钗的病。薛姨妈去后，王夫人又求贾政。贾政道：“此事上头可托，底下难托，必须打点才好。”王夫人又提起宝钗的事来，因说道：“这孩子也苦了。

Aunt Marshgrass and others were a little relieved. But it had already known to both Rong and Ning Houses, firstly Splendid Phoenix dispatched a person to send Ten Incense Strigoi Potion, then Lady King sent Treasure Elixir, and Grandma Merchant, Lady City and Lady King as well as madame You all sent girls to have a greeting without letting Precious Jade know. It lasted seven or eight days, but it didn't work. It was himself that thought of "Cold Fragrant Pills", and ate three pills of it and recovered from the illness. Later on, Precious Jade heard about this, but because she was well, he did not go to visit her. That time saw a letter from Tadpole Marshgrass. Aunt Marshgrass did not let Precious Hairpin know for the sake of worrying about him, so she herself came to beg Lady King for help and told her about her daughter’s illness. After Aunt Marshgrass had gone, Lady King asked for Politics Merchant’s help. He said: "We can trust it to the high class but do not count on the low status. And it is necessary to make an arrangement." Lady King brought up the story of Precious Jade again, and said, "The child is suffering too much.”

We shall give them more money to deal with this thing.” Then Lady King talked about Precious Jade again, and said, “The poor girl is suffering too much.”--[[User:Zhang Guohao|Zhang Guohao]] ([[User talk:Zhang Guohao|talk]]) 13:12, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

既是我家的人了，也该早些娶了过来才是，别叫他遭塌坏了身子。”贾政道：“我也是这么想。但是他家乱忙，况且如今到了冬底，已经年近岁逼，不无各自要料理些家务。今冬且放了定，明春再过礼。过了老太太的生日，就定日子娶。你把这番话先告诉薛姨太太。”王夫人答应了。到了明日，王夫人将贾政的话向薛姨妈述了，薛姨妈想着也是。到了饭后，王夫人陪着来到贾母房中，大家让了坐。贾母道：“姨太太才过来？”薛姨妈道：“还是昨儿过来的，因为晚了，没得过来给老太太请安。”王夫人便把贾政昨夜所说的话向贾母述了一遍，贾母甚喜。说着，宝玉进来了。

Lady King said: “She has been already one member of our family, and the sooner Precious Jade and she get married, the better the thing is. It is ruining her health now.” Master Merchant then said: “I agree with you. But her family are very disordered now, and it is approaching the year. We will be busy doing our affairs. I suppose that during this winter we can manage the betrothal and change presents early the next year. Their wedding ceremony can be held after Grandma Merchant’s birthday. You should deliver the message to your sister.” Lady King agreed with him. The next day she told Aunt Marshgrass, who also thought this proposal was good. After lunch, the two of them went to see Grandma Merchant. After the usual courtesies had been exchanged, Grandma Merchant asked Aunt Marshgrass, “Have you just come over?” “I was here yesterday,” replied Aunt Marshgrass, “because it was too late yesterday, so I was not able to come and greet you.” Lady King told what Master Merchant had said yesterday to Grandma Merchant, making her very happy. While they are talking, Precious Jade entered into the room.

Continued Lady King. “As she’s betrothed to our family, I think we should fix up the wedding soon, before she ruins her health.” “I agree,” he replied. “But her family’s in too much of a commotion now; and as winter is nearly over, with the New Year in the offing, we have a good many affairs to attend to ourselves. Suppose we send the betrothal gifts this winter and the wedding gifts next spring — fix the date for the wedding after the old lady’s birthday. You can tell Aunt Marshgrass this first.” The next day, Lady Wang let her sister know this proposal, and Aunt Marshgrass agreed to it. After lunch, the two of them called on the Lady Merchant. When they had taken seats she asked Aunt Marshgrass: “Have you just come over?” “Actually I came yesterday,” replied Aunt Marshgrass. “But it was too late then to pay my respects.” Then Lady King repeated her husband’s proposal, and the old lady thoroughly approved.

Besides, hearing that aunty was here, I wanted to pay my respects to her as well.” He asked Aunt Marshgrass, “Is Cousin Precious Hairpin better?” “Yes, she is,” was the answer. As their conversation had stopped at his arrival, and as Aunt Marshgrass seemed less cordial to him than before, Precious Jade felt mystified. “Even if she’s upset, why should they all keep so quiet?” he asked himself as he went back to school. On his return that evening, having paid his respects to his elders, he went straight to Bamboo Lodge. But when he raised the portière and went in there was only Nightingale there — the inner room was empty. “Where is your mistress?” he asked. “With the old lady,” said Nightingale. “When she heard that Madam Marshgrass had called, she went over to pay her respects.

都是你自己心上胡思乱想，钻入魔道里去了。”宝玉豁然开朗，笑道：“狠是，狠是。你的性灵，比我竟强远了。怨不得前年我生气的时候，你和我说过几句禅语，我实在对不上来。我虽丈六金身，还藉你一茎所化。”黛玉乘此机会，说道：“我便问你一句话，你如何回答？”宝玉盘着腿，合着手，闭着眼，嘘着嘴道：“讲来。”黛玉道：“宝姐姐和你好，你怎么样？宝姐姐不和你好，你怎么样？宝姐姐前儿和你好，如今不和你好，你怎么样？今儿和你好，后来不和你好，你怎么样？你和他好，他偏不和你好，你怎么样？你不和他好，他偏要和你好，你怎么样？”

But by letting your fancy run away with you, you end up thinking the worst." Precious Jade Merchant laughed suddenly, as if seeing the light.“Quite right, quite right," he cried."You are much more perspicacious than I am. No wonder the other year when I was angry you put me through that Buddhist catechism, and I was stumped. If ever I become a real Buddha, I shall still need your guidance." She took this chance to sound him out. "Then let me ask you something, and see how you answer." Precious Jade Merchant crossed his legs and folded his hands as if in prayer, his eyes closed, his face solemn. "Go on," he said. "Suppose Cousin Precious Hairpin Marshgrass befriended you? Suppose she cold shouldered you? Suppose she befriended you first but not later? Suppose she befriends you now but not in future? Suppose you befriend her but she cold shoulders you? Suppose you cold shoulder her but she befriends you? What would you do in all those different cases?" Precious Jade Merchant thought for a while, then burst out laughing.

宝玉呆了半晌，忽然大笑道：“任凭弱水三千，我只取一瓢饮。”黛玉道：“瓢之漂水，奈何？”宝玉道：“非瓢漂水；水自流，瓢自漂耳。”黛玉道：“水止珠沉，奈何？”宝玉道：“禅心已作沾泥絮，莫向春风舞鹧鸪。”黛玉道：“禅门第一戒是不打诳语的。”宝玉道：“有如三宝。”黛玉低头不语。只听见檐外老鸹“呱呱”的叫了几声，便飞向东南上去。宝玉道：“不知主何吉凶？”黛玉道：“人有吉凶事，不在鸟音中。”忽见秋纹走来说道：“请二爷回去。老爷叫人到园里来问过，说：二爷打学里回来了没有？袭人姐姐只说：‘已经来了。’快去罢。”

Precious Jade was stunned for a while and then laughed, "Though there are countless rivers, I only take a gourd ladle of water to drink. That would be enough." Marasca Jade asked, "What if your gourd ladle float with the water?" Precious Jade answered, "It was not the gourd ladle floating with the water. The water flows itself and so does the ladle." Marasca Jade asked again, "What if the water ceases to flow?" Precious Jade answered, "Buddhist heart is covered with affection; never be the francolin, the embody of unceasing love, to the elusive spring breeze." Marasca Jade retorted, "Buddhist law puts lying the first forbiddance." Precious Jade answered, "Oath to the Buddha." Marasca lowered her head and remained silent. At this moment, an aged crow cawed outside and then headed southeast. Precious Jade murmured, "I wonder the omen auspicious or not." Mascara said, "Auspiciousness is not seen in bird's sound." At this moment, Autumn Vein came over and said, "Second master, please go back. Old master asked a servant to our garden to see if you have returned from school. And Sister Aroma just answered, 'He has returned.' Hurry and go back."

吓得宝玉站起身来，往外忙走。黛玉也不敢相留。话说宝玉从潇湘馆出来，连忙问秋纹道：“老爷叫我作什么？”秋纹笑道：“没有叫。袭人姐姐叫我请二爷，我怕你不来，才哄你的。”宝玉听了，才把心放下，因说：“你们请我也罢了，何苦来唬我？”说着，回到怡红院内。袭人便问道：“你这好半天到那里去了？”宝玉道：“在林姑娘那边，说起薛姨妈宝姐姐的事来，便坐住了。”袭人又问道：“说些什么？”宝玉将打禅语的话述了一遍。袭人道：“你们再没个计较。正经说些家常闲话儿，或讲究些诗句，也是好的，怎么又说到禅语上了？又不是和尚。”
Precious Jade sprang up in alarm and hurried out, and Mascara Jade did not venture to detain him.
Precious Jade, as soon as he had left Bamboo Lodge, asked Autumn Vein, "What does my father want me for?""
"He doesn't want you," she chuckled. "Sister Aroma sent me to fetch you, and for fear you wouldn't come I made that up."
In relief he cried, "It's all very well to fetch me, but why give me such a fright?"
Back in Happy Red Court, Aroma wanted to know where he had been all this time.
"With Miss Lin. We got talking about Cousin Precious Hairpin; that's what kept me there so long."
"What were you discussing?" He told her then about his catechism.
"You two have no sense," scolded Aroma. "It's all right to chat about family affairs or discuss certain lines of poetry; but why go in for Buddhist cant? It's not as if you were a monk."

宝玉道：“你不知道，我们有我们的禅机，别人是插不下嘴去的。”袭人笑道：“你们参禅参翻了，又叫我们跟着打闷葫芦了。”宝玉道：“头里我也年纪小，他也孩子气，所以我说了不留神的话，他就恼了。如今我也留神，他也没有恼的了。只是他近来不常过来，我又念书，偶然到一处，好像生疏了是的。”袭人道：“原该这么着才是。都长了几岁年纪了，怎么好意思还像小孩子时候的样子。”宝玉点头道：“我也知道。如今且不用说那个。我问你，老太太那里打发人来说什么来着没有？”袭人道：“没有说什么。”
"You don't understand. We have our own esoteric talk which no oneelse can join in."
"If your esoteric repartee leads to squabbles, we shall have to try toguess your riddles too," she answered teasingly.
"In the past I was young and she was childish too, so if I spoke tact-lessly she used to flare up. Now that I'm more careful she never takes offence. But recently she's stopped coming here so often, and I have to go to school. That's why, when we do happen to meet, we feel rather like strangers."
"That's how it should be," approved Aroma. "Now that you're both several years older, how can you go on behaving as if you were children?" He nodded. "I know. Never mind about that now. Tell me: Has the old lady sent any message for me?"
"No, none."

宝玉道：“必是老太太忘了。明儿不是十一月初一日么？年年老太太那里必是个老规矩，要办‘消寒会’，齐打伙儿坐下，喝酒说笑。我今日已经在学房里告了假了。这会子没有信儿，明儿可是去不去呢？若去了呢，白白的告了假；若不去，老爷知道了，又说我偷懒。”袭人道：“据我说，你竟是去的是。才念的好些儿了，又想歇着。依我说也该上紧些才好。昨儿听见太太说，兰哥儿念书真好，他打学房里回来，还各自念书作文章，天天晚上弄到四更多天才睡。你比他大多了，又是叔叔，倘或赶不上他，又叫老太太生气，倒不如明儿早起去罢。”
"She must have forgotten. Tomorrow's the first of the eleventh month isn't it? It used to be her rule every year to hold a cold-dispelling party that day,getting everybody together to drink and have fun. Today I asked for leave from school. As no message has come shall I go tomorrow or not? If I do,I'll have asked for leave all for nothing. If I don't and my father knows,he'll call me an idler." "I think you'd better go," she said."You're just beginning to study seriously,yet here you are wanting to rest. My advice to you is to work harder. Yesterday I heard your mother praise Master Cymbidium for really concentrating on his books. Every evening after he comes back from school,he reads and writes essays on his own,not sleeping till nearly dawn. You're much older than he is,and his uncle too. If you lag behind him the old lady will be angry. So you'd better go to school tomorrow morning.

‘In this cold weather?’ she objected. ‘lf you go now, they’ll wonder why you asked for the day off in the first place. It will look as though you were inventing an excuse to get off school.

心里喜欢，便说：“快睡罢，明日早些起来。”于是一夜无话。到了次日，果然一早到老太太那里请了安，又到贾政王夫人那里请了安，回明了老太太今儿不叫上学。贾政也没言语，便慢慢退出来。走了几步，便一溜烟跑到贾母房中。见众人都没来，只有凤姐那边的奶妈子，带了巧姐儿，跟着几个小丫头，过来给老太太请了安，说：“我妈妈先叫我来请安，陪着老太太说说话儿。妈妈回来就来。”贾母笑着道：“好孩子，我一早就起来了。等他们总不来，只有你二叔叔来了。”那奶妈子便说：“姑娘，给你二叔叔请安。”宝玉也问了一声“妞妞好？”

‘Let’s have an early night,’ he said. ‘I want to be up first thing tomorrow.’ The night passed uneventfully, and early next morning, true to his resolution, Precious Jade went to pay his respects to Grandma Merchant and then to his father and mother, to whom he reported that ‘Grannie had given him the day off school’. Jia Zheng raised no objection and Precious Jade withdrew from his presence at a snail’s pace, waiting till he was a few yards from the study before breaking into a run and racing to Grandma Merchant’s apartment. The other guests had not yet arrived, but he saw a nurse and a few younger maids enter the room with Splendid Phoenix’s little girl Sister Ingenious, who walked up to her great-grandmother, paid her respects and said: ‘Mama told me to come and say my good-morning and sit with you first, Great-grannie. She says she’ll be here by and by.’ The old lady laughed. ‘Bless you child! Here I’ve been sitting since cockcrow, and none of my guests has turned up, except your Uncle Bao.’ Sister Ingenious’s nurse did some discreet prompting: ‘Say good morning to your uncle, Miss.’ Sister Ingenious did so, and Precious Jade returned the greeting.

‘My Mama wants to see you, Uncle Bao,’ said Qiao-jie：’She said so yesterday.’ Bai-yu asked: ‘For what?’ ‘She says she wants to find out if I've learnt my characters properly after all my lessons with Nannie Li, and offered to read them out for her.#1 But she thought I was guessing and didn't believe me. #2 She said I couldn't have learnt them because all I do all day long is play. But I don't think learning characters is hard. I can even read my Girl's Classic of Filial Piety - it's ever so easy. Mama thinks I'm making it up, so she wants you to go over it with me when you've got the time.” Grandmother Jia laughed. “Bless you darling! Your mother can't read a word, that's why she couldn't tell if you were cheating her or not. Tomorrow your uncle Bao will go over it with you, and she can listen in. Then she'll have to believe you.” “How many characters do you know by now?” asked Bao-yu. “Over three thousand,' replied Qiao-jie. “I've finished the Girl's Classic, and a fortnight ago I started on Lives of Noble Women Present and Past.”

Sister Qiao said, "I heard my mother say last night that I would ask my second uncle to talk." Baoyu said, "what are you talking about?" Sister Qiao said, "my mother said that after following Li Ma for several years, I don't know if I can recognize the words. I said, 'I can recognize them all. I'll show them to my mother.' my mother said that I can recognize them blindly. I don't believe it. She said that I can recognize them there all day. It doesn't matter if I look at those words. Even the book of filial piety is easy to read. My mother said that I coaxed him and asked my second uncle to manage it for me when he had time." Jia's mother smiled and said, "good boy, your mother doesn't know words, so you coax him. Ask your second uncle to show him tomorrow, and he'll believe it." Baoyu said, "how many words have you recognized?" Sister Qiao said, "I recognized more than 3000 words, read a Book of female filial piety, and appeared in the biography of women in half a month."

宝玉道：“你念了懂得吗？你要不懂，我倒是讲讲这个你听罢。”贾母道：“做叔叔的也该讲究给侄女儿听听。”宝玉道：“那文王后妃是不必说了。想来是知道的。那姜后脱簪待罪，齐国的无盐虽丑，能安邦定国，是后妃里头的贤能的。若说有才的，是曹大姑、班婕妤、蔡文姬、谢道韫诸人。孟光的荆钗裙布，鲍宣妻的提瓮出汲，陶侃母的截发留宾，还有画荻教子的，这是不厌贫的。那苦的里头，有乐昌公主破镜重圆，苏蕙的回文感主。那孝的是更多了，木兰代父从军，曹娥投水寻父的尸首等类也多，我也说不得许多。那个曹氏的引刀割鼻，是魏国的故事。

Thinking this might all be making her feel uncomfortable, Bao-yu introduced an apocryphal category of his own invention:"Then of course we have the Famous Beauties, romantic ladies such as Wang Zhao-jun, Xi-shi, Cherry Lips, Willow Waist, Crimson Fairy, Zhuo Wen-jun, Red Duster - all of these were..." "Enough!" interrupted Grandmother Jia, seeing the blank look on Qiao-jie’s face. "No more! You’ve filled the poor child’s head to overflowing. How can she possibly remember all those names?" "I recognize some of the names Uncle Bao mentioned," said Qiao-jie. "And his talk has certainly helped me to understand the ones I know." "I don’t think we need bother going over the written characters for all those names," said Bao-yu. "I’m sure you know them." "Mama said that our Crimson used to be one of your maids," said Qiao-jie out of the blue. "And she says she still hasn’t found you anyone to replace her. She’s thinking of giving you Mrs Liu’s daughter, Fivey I think her name is, if you’re happy about it..."--[[User:Peng Huixuan|Peng Huixuan]] ([[User talk:Peng Huixuan|talk]]) 15:52, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

宝玉听了更喜欢，笑着道：“你听你妈妈的话，要补谁就补谁罢咧，又问什么要不要呢！”因又向贾母笑道：“我瞧大妞妞这个小模样儿，又有这个聪明儿，只怕将来比凤姐姐还强呢，又比他认的字。”贾母道：“女孩儿家认得字呢也好，只是女工针黹倒是要紧的。”巧姐儿道：“我也跟着刘妈妈学着做呢。什么扎花儿咧，拉锁子，我虽弄不好，却也学着会做几针儿。”贾母道：“咱们这样人家，固然不仗着自己做，但只到底知道些，日后才不受人家的拿捏。”巧姐儿答应着“是”，还要宝玉解说《列女传》，见宝玉呆呆的，也不敢再说。
Bao-yu was delighted to hear this and said with a grin: ‘Your mother doesn’t have to ask me about things like that. She makes all the decisions.’
He turned with a smile to Grandmother Jia. ‘My young niece shows every sign of growing up to be a second Cousin Feng. Only I think she may be even cleverer,
and will have the added advantage of being able to read.’ ‘I’ve no objection to girls learning their letters,’ commented Grandmother Jia. ‘But needlework must always come first.’ ‘Nannie Liu teaches me embroidery,’ said Qiao-jie. ‘I can do flowers and chain-patterns. I’m not very good yet, but I’m learning.’ ‘In a family like ours,’ said Grandmother J ia, ‘we never need to do our own sewing, I know. But it’s as well to know
how. Then you will never be at the mercy of others.’ ‘Yes, Great-grannie,’ Qiao-jie smilingly replied. She would have welcomed some more Paragons of Virtue, but thought Bao-yu looked a little preoccupied and did not venture
to ask.

你道宝玉呆的是什么？只因柳五儿要进怡红院，头一次是他病了，不能进来；第二次王夫人撵了晴雯，大凡有些姿色的，都不敢挑；后来又在吴贵家看晴雯去，五儿跟着他妈给晴雯送东西去，见了一面，更觉娇娜妩媚。今日亏得凤姐想着，叫他补入小红的窝儿，竟是喜出望外了，所以呆呆的想他。贾母等着那些人，见这时候还不来，又叫丫头去请。回来李纨同着他妹子、探春、惜春、史湘云、黛玉都来了。大家请了贾母的安，众人厮见。独有薛姨妈未到，贾母又叫请去。果然姨妈带着宝琴过来。宝玉请了安，问了好，只不见宝钗邢岫烟二人。

What was preoccupying Bao-yu? The answer lies in Qiao-jie’s mention of Fivey. This attractive girl had been originally designated for Green Delights, but one obstacle after another had so far prevented her from entering service there. First it had been illness; then they had been wary of choosing a good-looking maid for Bao-yu in the puritanical phase that followed on Lady Wang’s expulsion of Skybright. A further opportunity of seeing her had presented itself when she and her mother had arrived with gifts during his secret visit to Skybright at her cousin’s house - and his earlier favourable impression of her had been confirmed. She really was extremely pretty. What marvellous luck that Xi-feng should have remembered her now, and was arranging for her to take Crimson’s place!While Bao-yu was day-dreaming, Grandmother Jia was becoming more and more impatient at the lateness of her guests and sent word to hurry them along. A few minutes later the first contingent arrived: Li Wan and her two cousins Wen and Qi, Tan-chun, Xi-chun, Shi Xiang-yun and Lin Dai-yu. They all paid their respects to Grandmother Jia and greeted one another. Aunt Xue had still not come, and Grandmother Jia sent for her. Finally she arrived, accompanied by Bao-qin. Bao-yu paid his respects, and said hello to Bao-qin, wondering why it was that neither Bao-chai nor Xing Xiu-yan had come.

黛玉便问起“宝姐姐为何不来？”薛姨妈假说身上不好。邢岫烟知道薛姨妈在坐，所以不来。宝玉虽见宝钗不来，心中纳闷，因黛玉来了，便把想宝钗的心暂且搁开。不多时，邢王二夫人也来了。凤姐听见婆婆们先到了，自己不好落后，只得打发平儿先来告假，说是：“正要过来，因身上发热，过一回儿就来。”贾母道：“既是身上不好，不来也罢。咱们这时候狠该吃饭了。”丫头们把火盆往后挪了一挪儿，就在贾母榻前一溜摆下两桌，大家序次坐下。吃了饭，依旧围炉闲谈，不须多赘。

“Why hasn't Cousin Precious Hairpin come?” asked Mascara Jade Forest. Aunt Marshgrass excused that she was unwell and Tadpole Marshgrass had naturally not come because her future in-laws were present. Precious Jade was disappointed by Precious Hairpin's absence, but as he had Mascara Jade's company he dismissed her from his mind. Soon, Lady City and Lady King also arrived. When Sister Phoenix heard this, as it would be remiss for her to lag behind Their Ladyships she sent Patience to excuse her, saying that she had a temperature but would come a little later. “If she is not well, she needn't come,” Grandma Merchant said. “It's time for our meal now.” Maids moved back the brazier and set out two tables in front of Grandma Merchant's couch. After this, the party sat down in due order. After dinner, they chatted around the fire, but there is no need to record the conversation.

且说凤姐因何不来？头里为着倒比邢王二夫人迟了不好意思，后来旺儿家的来回说：“迎姑娘那里打发人来请奶奶安，还说并没有到上头，只到奶奶这里来。”凤姐听了纳闷，不知又是什么事，便叫那人进来，问：“姑娘在家好？”那人道：“有什么好的！奴才并不是姑娘打发来的，实在是司棋的母亲央我来求奶奶的。”凤姐道：“司棋已经出去了，为什么来求我？”那人道：“自从司棋出去，终日啼哭。忽然那一日，他表兄来了。他母亲见了，恨得什么是的，说他害了司棋，一把拉住要打。那小子不敢言语。

Now what had kept Sister Phoenix away? In the beginning it was embarrassment at going later than Lady City and Lady King. And then Vigor's wife had arrived. “Miss Spring Pleasure has sent someone with her regards,” she announced. “And the woman says she's not called on Their Ladyships but come straight here.” Not knowing what to make of this, Sister Phoenix called the messenger in. “Is your mistress well?” she asked. “No, it wasn't Miss Spring Pleasure who sent me,” was the answer. “The fact is, Controlling Board's mother has begged me to come to ask you a favour, madam.”“Controlling Board has already been dismissed, so what can I do to help?” “After Controlling Board left here she kept weeping all day long. Then, the other day, that cousin of hers turned up. At sight of him, her mother was furious-she accused him of ruining her daughter's life and grabbed hold of him to beat him.

谁知司棋听见了，急忙出来，老着脸，和他母亲道：‘我是为他出来的，我也恨他没良心。如今他来了，妈要打他，不如勒死了我。’他母亲骂他：‘不害臊的东西！你心里要怎么样？’司棋说道：‘一个女人配一个男人。我一时失脚，上了他的当，我就是他的人了，决不肯再失身给别人的。我恨他为什么这样胆小！‘一身作事一身当’，为什么要逃？就是他一辈子不来了，我也一辈子不嫁人的。妈要给我配人，我原拼着一死的。今儿他来了，妈问他怎么样。若是他不改心，我在妈跟前磕了头，只当是我死了，他到那里，我跟到那里，就是讨饭吃也是愿意的。’

Siqi hearing this came running out, bold as brass.“‘It’s because of him that I was dismissed,’ she told her mother. ‘I hate him too for his heartlessness. If you want to beat him now that he’s come, you’d better strangle me first!“Her mother swore, ‘Shameless slut! What do you want to do?”’“Siqi said, ‘A woman can only marry once. I slipped up and let him take advantage of me, so now I belong to him, and I’ll never, never marry anyone else. But what makes me angry is his lack of guts. A man should be responsible for his actions. Why run away? If he’d never shown up, I’d have stayed single all my life. If you’d tried to marry me to someone else, ma, I should have killed myself. Now that he’s here, ask him what his intentions are. If he hasn’t had a change of heart, I’ll kowtow farewell to you, ma, and you can count me as dead, for wherever he goes I’ll go too, content even if we have to beg for food.

他妈气得了不得，便哭着骂着说：‘你是我的女儿，我偏不给他，你敢怎么着？’那知道那司棋这东西糊涂，便一头撞在墙上，把脑袋撞破，鲜血直流，竟死了。他妈哭着，救不过来，便要叫那小子偿命。他表兄也奇：‘你们不用着急。我在外头原发了财，因想着他才回来的，心也算是真了。你们若不信，只管瞧。’说着，打怀里掏出一匣子金珠首饰来。他妈妈看见了，便心软了，说：‘你既有心，为什么总不言语？’他外甥道：‘大凡女人都是水性杨花，我若说有钱，他便是贪图银钱了。如今，他只为人就是难得的。我把金珠给你们，我去买棺盛殓他。’

那司棋的母亲接了东西，也不顾女孩儿了，便由着外甥去。那里知道他外甥叫人抬了两口棺材来。司棋的母亲看见，咤异说：‘怎么棺材要两口？’他外甥笑道：‘一口装不下，得两口才好。’司棋的母亲见他外甥又不哭，只当是他心疼的傻了。岂知他忙着把司棋收拾了，也不啼哭，眼错不见，把带的小刀子往脖子里一抹，也就抹死了。司棋的母亲懊悔起来，倒哭得了不得。如今坊上知道了，要报官。他急了，央我来求奶奶说个人情，他再过来给奶奶磕头。”凤姐听了，咤异道：“那有这样傻丫头，偏偏的就碰见这个傻小子！怪不得那一天翻出那些东西来，他心里没事人是的。

“Siqi’s mother took the jewels and let him go, not carrying on any more about her daughter. Who could have imagined, though, that he got people to carry back two coffins.
“‘What do you want two coffins for?’ she asked.

“The fact that he wasn’t weeping made her think he was stupefied with grief. But after laying Siqi in one coffin — without so much as a whimper — before anyone could see what he was doing he whipped out a small knife and cut his own throat!

She’s frantic, that’s why she’s sent me to beg you to help. She’ll be coming later to kowtow her thanks.”
“What a silly girl!” exclaimed Xifeng in amazement. “And up against such a simpleton too it’s too bad! No wonder she took it so calmly when they found those things during the search that day.

Actually I've no time to mind other people's business, but what you' ve told me really makes my heart bleed.

He was playing draughts one day with Zhan Guang, and both still had about the same number of pieces; but in one corner the issue was not yet decided and each was trying to enclose thatsector.A gateman came in to announce, Mr. Feng is waiting outside to see you, Sir.'"Show him in," ordered Jia Zheng.The man withdrew to do so, and as Feng Ziying entered Jia Zheng rose to welcome him. Having taken a seat in the study, Feng saw that they had been playing draughts.Please go on with your game," he urged them. I'd like to watch."

“Don’t be so modest,” replied Feng. “Please carry on.”
“Have you come on business?” Jia Zheng wanted to know.
“Nothing of any importance. Please go on with your game, uncle, and I can learn by watching.”
Jia Zheng told Zhan, “Master Feng is a good friend of ours. As he’s in no hurry, let’s finish this game and then we can have a chat. You can watch from the side, Master Feng.”
“Are you playing for stakes?”
“Yes, we are,” said Zhan.
“In that case I mustn’t interfere.”
“It doesn’t matter if you do,” joked Jia Zheng. “He’s lost over ten taels already, but he never pays up. I shall have to make him stand us a meal some day instead.”
“That’s all right,” chuckled Zhan.
“Do you gentlemen both play from scratch?” asked Feng.
“We used to.” Jia Zheng smiled. “But he kept losing. Now I’m handi¬capped by giving him two pieces at the start, yet he still loses. From time to time he revokes too, and if I challenge him he gets worked up.--[[User:Hu Mengqi|Hu Mengqi]] ([[User talk:Hu Mengqi|talk]]) 15:05, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

詹光也笑道：“没有的事。”贾政道：“你试试瞧。”大家一面说笑，一面下完了，做起棋来，詹光还了棋头，输了七个子儿。冯紫英道：“这盘终吃亏在打结里头。老伯劫少，就便宜了。”贾政对冯紫英道：“有罪，有罪。咱们说话儿罢。”冯紫英道：“小侄与老伯久不见面。一来会会，二来因广西的同知进来引见，带了四种洋货，可以做得贡的。一件是围屏，有二十四扇槅子，都是紫檀雕刻的。中间虽说不是玉，却是绝好的硝子石，石上镂出山水、人物、楼台、花鸟等物。一扇上有五六十个人，都是宫妆的女子，名为‘汉宫春晓’。

“That’s not true!” protested Light Zhan laughingly.
“Just wait and see,” said Master Merchant.
They played as they chatted, and when the game was finished they counted their pieces. After deducting the one with which he had opened, Zhan had lost by seven pieces.
Feng remarked, “You lost out trying to enclose uncle’s pieces. And so, being less vulnerable, he got the upper hand.”
“Excuse us for ignoring you,” Master Merchant apologized. “Now we can talk.”
“I haven’t seen you for some time, uncle, so I called in the first place to pay my respects,” said Feng. “Another reason is that the vice-prefect of Guangxi has come to the capital with four novelties from the south or overseas, all fit to present to the court. One is a carved ebony screen with twenty-four leaves. They’re inlaid not with jade but with the finest marble carved with landscapes, figures, pavilions, flowers and birds. On each leaf are fifty to sixty girls in palace costume, so the screen is called ‘Spring Dawn in the Han Palace.’

詹光即忙端过一个黑漆茶盘，道：“使得么？”冯紫英道：“使得。”便又向怀里掏出一个白绢包儿，将包儿里的珠子都倒在盘子里散着，把那颗母珠搁在中间，将盘置于桌上。看见那些小珠子儿，滴溜滴溜滚到大珠身边来，一回儿把这颗大珠子抬高了，别处的小珠子一颗也不剩，都粘在大珠上。詹光道：“这也奇怪！”贾政道：“这是有的，所以叫做‘母珠’，原是珠之母。”那冯紫英又回头看着他跟来的小厮道：“那个匣子呢？”那小厮赶忙捧过一个花梨木匣子来。大家打开看时，原来匣内衬着虎纹锦，锦上叠着一束蓝纱。詹光道：“这是什么东西？”

Light Zhan at once passed him a black lacquer tea-tray.
“Will this do?”
“Yes, that’s fine.”
Feng took a silk pouch from his pocket and emptied all the pearls in it on to the tray, then placed the mother pearl in the middle and set the tray on the table. At once, all the small pearls rolled over and over until they were close to the big one, propping it up, all without exception nestling against the big pearl.
“Fantastic!” exclaimed Zhan.
“I’ve heard of this,” said Master Merchant. “This is how it came by its name as the mother of pearls.”
Now Feng turned to the page who had accompanied him.
“Where is that box?” he called.
The page at once brought over a rosewood box. When opened it disclosed, on a lining of silk, some folded blue gauze.
“What is this?” asked Zhan.

冯紫英道：“这叫做‘鲛绡帐’。”在匣子里拿出来时，叠得长不满五寸，厚不上半寸，冯紫英一层一层的打开，打到十来层，已经桌上铺不下了。冯紫英道：“你看，里头还有两褶，必得高屋里去，才张得下。这就是鲛丝所织。暑热天气，张在堂屋里头，苍蝇蚊子，一个不能进来，又轻又亮。”贾政道：“不用全打开，怕叠起来倒费事。”詹光便与冯紫英一层一层折好收拾。冯紫英道：“这四件东西，价儿也不狠贵，两万银他就卖。母珠一万，鲛绡帐五千，‘汉宫春晓’与自鸣钟五千。”贾政道：“那里买得起。”冯紫英道：“你们是个国戚，难道宫里头用不着么？”

Feng said, "This is called 'Fish Tent'. When it was taken out of the box, it was folded less than five inches long and not half an inch thick, and Feng opened it layer by layer, hitting more than ten layers, and it could not be laid on the table. Feng said, "You see, there are still two folds in it, and you must go up to the high house before you can open it." This is how the fish is woven. In the hot summer weather, Zhang was in the hall, flies and mosquitoes, one could not come in, light and bright. Master Merchant said, "You don't have to open it all, I'm afraid it's too much to fold up." Light Zhan folded and cleaned up with Feng layer by layer. Feng said, "The price of these four things is not fierce, he will sell them for 20,000 silver." There are 10,000 mother beads, 5,000 fish tents, 5,000 'Han Palace Spring Dawn' and 5,000 self-chiming bells. Master Merchant said, "You can afford it there." Feng said, "You are a state relative, don't you need it in the palace?" ”

贾政道：“用得着的狠多，只是那里有这些银子？等我叫人拿进去给老太太瞧瞧。”冯紫英道：“狠是。”贾政便着人叫贾琏把这两件东西送到老太太那边去，并叫人请了邢王二夫人、凤姐儿都来瞧着，又把两件东西一一试过。贾琏道：“他还有两件：一件是围屏，一件是乐钟。共总要卖二万银子呢。”凤姐儿接着道：“东西自然是好的，但是那里有这些闲钱？咱们又不比外任督抚要办贡。我已经想了好些年了，像咱们这种人家，必得置些不动摇的根基才好：或是祭地，或是义庄，再置些坟屋。往后子孙遇见不得意的事，还是点儿底子，不到一败涂地。

Master Merchant said, "There are many things that need to be done, but where can I find the money? Let me ask someone to take it in and show it to Grandma Merchant. " Feng said, "Yes." Master Merchant sent for Romance Merchant to take these two things to the old lady's side, and invited Mrs. Xing Wang and Splendid Phoenix to look at them, and tried them one by one. Romance Merchant said, "He still has two pieces: one is a screen and the other is a music bell. A total of 20,000 pieces of silver will be sold. " Splendid Phoenix continued, "Things are naturally good, but where is the spare money? It's not like we have to pay tribute to other governors. I've been thinking for many years. A family like ours must have some unshakable foundations: either a sacrificial site, a righteous village, and some grave houses. In the future, when children and grandchildren encounter something they are not satisfied with, they still have some foundation and will not be completely defeated.

我的意思是这样，不知老太太、老爷、太太们怎么样？若是外头老爷们要买只管买。”贾母与众人都说：“这话说的倒也是。”贾琏道：“还了他罢。原是老爷叫我送给老太太瞧，为的是宫里好进；谁说买来搁在家里？老太太还没开口，你便说了一大些丧气话！”说着，便把两件东西拿了出去，告诉贾政，只说：“老太太不要。”便与冯紫英道：“这两件东西，好可好，就只没银子。我替你留心，有要买的人我便送信给你去。”冯紫英只得收拾好，坐下说些闲话，没有兴头，就要起身。贾政道：“你在我这里吃了晚饭去罢。”冯紫英道：“罢了，来了就叨扰老伯吗！”

I mean, what about the old ladies and lords and ladies? If the gentlemen want it, they can buy it." "That is true," Grandma Merchant and the others said. Romance Merchant said, "Give him back. My master had told me to show it to the old lady for the sake of entering the palace. Who says buy it and put it at home? You say such sad things before the old lady has opened her mouth!" Then he took the two things out and told Master Merchant, saying, "The old lady doesn't want them." He said to Feng, "These two things are very good, but there is no silver. I'll keep an eye out for you and send you word if anyone wants to buy." Feng had to tidy up and sit down to gossip. When she was not excited, she got up. Master Merchant said, "You can have your supper at my place." Feng said, "That's all. You're bothering the old man!"

贾政道：“说那里的话！”正说着，人回：“大老爷来了。”贾赦早已进来。彼此相见，叙些寒温。不一时，摆上酒来，肴馔罗列，大家喝着酒。至四五巡后，说起洋货的话。冯紫英道：“这种货本是难消的。除非要像尊府这种人家，还可消得，其余就难了。”贾政道：“这也不见得。”贾赦道：“我们家里也比不得从前了，这回儿也不过是个空门面。”冯紫英又问：“东府珍大爷可好么？我前儿见他，说起家常话儿来，提到他令郎续娶的媳妇远不及头里那位秦氏奶奶了。如今后娶的到底是那一家的？我也没有问起。”

贾政道：“我们这个侄孙媳妇儿也是这里大家，从前做过京畿道的胡老爷的女孩儿。”冯紫英道：“胡道长我是知道的。但是他家教上也不怎么样。也罢了，只要姑娘好就好。”贾琏道：“听得内阁里人说起，雨村又要升了。”贾政道：“这也好，不知准不准？”贾琏道：“大约有意思的了。”冯紫英道：“我今儿从吏部里来，也听见这样说。雨村老先生是贵本家不是？”贾政道：“是。”冯紫英道：“是有服的，还是无服的？”贾政道：“说也话长。他原籍是浙江湖州府人，流寓到苏州，甚不得意。有个甄士隐和他相好，时常周济他。

But his family education is not very good. That's all, as long as The girl is good." Romance Merchant said: "I heard from the cabinet that Rainvillage is going to be promoted again." Master Merchant said: "This is also good, not sure?" Romance Merchant said: "It's about interesting. Feng Dao: "I came from the Ministry of Officials today, and I heard this too. Is Mr. Amamura from your family?" Master Merchant said, "Yes." Feng Dao: "Is it with or without service? ?" Master Merchant said, "It's a long story. He was originally from Huzhou, Zhejiang, and lived in Suzhou. He was very unhappy. There was a Zhen Shiyin who was close to him and often helped him.

Master Merchant said， “Our grand-nephew's wife is also coming from a prominent family. Her father was Lord Hu, who used to take office in the capital.” Feng Ziying added, “I know Lord Hu. But his domestic discipline is not very decent. That's all. It will be fine as long as he educates his girl well.” Romance Merchant changed the topic, “I heard from the cabinet that Rain Village is going to be promoted again.” Master Merchant said, “Good news. Is it true?” Romance Merchant said, “There are some hints.” Feng Ziying wondered, “I also get this news from the Ministry of Official Personal Affairs today. Is he a relative of your family?” Master Merchant answered, “Yes.” Feng continued, “A close relative or not?” Master Merchant said, “It's a long story. He was born in Huzhou, Zhejiang, and stayed in Suzhou, where he led a poor life. The man Zhen Shiyin, with whom he got along well at that time, often helped him.

紫鹃进来看时，只见黛玉被窝又蹬下来，复又给他轻轻盖上。一宿晚景不提。次日，黛玉清早起来，也不叫人，独自一个，呆呆的坐着。紫鹃醒来，看见黛玉已起，便惊问道：“姑娘怎么这么早？”黛玉道：“可不是！睡得早，所以醒得早。”紫鹃连忙起来，叫醒雪雁，伺候梳洗。那黛玉对着镜子，只管呆呆的自看。看了一回，那泪珠儿断断连连，早已湿透了罗帕。正是：瘦影正临春水照，卿须怜我我怜卿。紫鹃在旁也不敢劝，只怕倒把闲话勾引旧恨来。迟了好一会，黛玉才随便梳洗了，那眼中泪渍，终是不干。又自坐了一会，叫紫鹃道：“你把藏香点上。”

As Nightingale came in and found Mascara Jade’s quilt had been moved off again, she draped it lightly around the sleeping lady. Nobody mentioned the evening chat overnight. The next morning Mascara Jade woke up, and didn’t ask anyone but left herself to sit blankly at the bedside, which was seen by Nightingale, who got up later, and she felt surprised, “Sister Forest, you get up so early!” “Yes! I fall asleep early and so get up early,” said Mascara Jade. Nightingale hurried to wake up Snowgoose to help the young lady freshen up. Facing the mirror, the sad girl just looked straight at herself in a complete daze. Shortly, she could be seen drops of tears continuously hanging on her face and wet her handkerchief. That’s exactly what the line could tell: Against the water, I felt depressed at that slender figure. Unreliable as the love offered by others, I have to take pity on myself. Seeing that, Nightingale didn’t dare to comfort her, worrying that her comforts would bring back her past sadness. In a few moments, the weeping lady roughly freshened herself up, while her tears were unceasing. “Light that Tibetan sticks，” she told Nightingale after a while.

紫鹃道：“姑娘，你睡也没睡得几时，如何点香？不是要写经？”黛玉点点头儿。紫鹃道：“姑娘今日醒得太早，这会子又写经，只怕太劳神了罢。”黛玉道：“不怕！早完了早好！况且我也并不是为经，倒借着写字解解闷儿。以后你们见了我的字迹，就算见了我的面儿了。”说着，那泪直流下来。紫鹃听了这话，不但不能再劝，连自己也掌不住滴下泪来。原来黛玉立定主意，自此以后，有意遭塌身子，茶饭无心，每日渐减下来。宝玉下学时，也常抽空问候。只是黛玉虽有万千言语，自知年纪已大，又不便似小时可以柔情挑逗，所以满腔心事，只是说不出来。

“You've slept only for a very short period of time, my ladyship. Why do you want incense? To copy more scriptures?” worried Nightingale. Mascara Jade nodded. “You woke up too early. If you want to copy scriptures now, I’m afraid it will drain your brains.” opposed Nightingale. “Put your mind at ease. I want to finish it as soon as possible. Besides, it’s not the scriptures I’m thinking about, but writing helps divert me from boredom. And later, when I'm not here anymore, seeing my calligraphy will be like seeing me again”. Comforted Mascara Jade, with tears streaming down her face. Knowing that she is not persuadable, Nightingale could not hold back her own tears any longer, too. Now that Mascara Jade had made up her mind to lavish her health, she ate less every day and gradually became emaciated. Precious Jade often took time off to visit her after school; although she was dying to pour out her inner emotion, now that they were no longer children she could hardly tease him playfully as before or express her constrained feelings straightly.

宝玉欲将实言安慰，又恐黛玉生嗔，反添病症。两个人见了面，只得用浮言劝慰，真真是”亲极反疏“了。那黛玉虽有贾母王夫人等怜恤，不过请医调治，只说黛玉常病，那里知他的心病？紫鹃等虽知其意，也不敢说。从此，一天一天的减。到半月之后，肠胃日薄一日，果然粥都不能吃了。黛玉日间听见的话，都似宝玉娶亲的话；看见怡红院中的人，无论上下，也像宝玉娶亲的光景。薛姨妈来看，黛玉不见宝钗，越发起疑心。索性不要人来看望，也不肯吃药，只要速死。睡梦之中，常听见有人叫“宝二奶奶”的。一片疑心，竟成蛇影。一日竟是绝粒，粥也不喝，恹恹一息，垂毙殆尽。

Precious Jade wanted to console her, yet he feared this might offend her and make her illness worse.When they met each other they could only express their concern in the most superficial way. Truly, theirs was a case of “devotion leading to alienation.”Grandma Merchant and Lady King were fond of Mascara Jade, simply called in doctors to attend her as she was so often ill, with no inkling that she was wasting away for love. And though Nightingale knew the truth, she dared not reveal it. So for a fortnight Mascara Jade ate daily less, till her appetite had so diminished that she could not even swallow a mouthful of congee. Any talk she heard she suspected concerned Precious Jade’s marriage. Anyone from Happy Red Court, whether master or maid, made her think of his impending marriage too. When Aunt Marshgrass called on her without Precious Hairpin, this made her still more suspicious. She even wished everyone would keep away, and refused to take any medicine in the hope of hastening her death. In her dreams, she kept hearing people refer to “Madam Precious Hairpin.” Suspicion poisoned her mind. And at last the day came when, refusing both rice and congee, she was at her last gasp and almost death’s door.

却说黛玉自立意自戕之后，渐渐不支，一日竟至绝粒。从前十几天内，贾母等轮流看望，他有时还说几句话；这两日索性不大言语。心里虽有时昏晕，却也有时清楚。贾母等见他这病不似无因而起，也将紫鹃雪雁盘问过两次。两个那里敢说？便是紫鹃欲向侍书打听消息，又怕越闹越真，黛玉更死得快了，所以见了侍书，毫不提起。那雪雁是他传话弄出这样缘故来，此时恨不得长出百十个嘴来说“我没说”，自然更不敢提起。到了这一天黛玉绝粒之日，紫鹃料无指望了，守着哭了会子，因出来偷向雪雁道：“你进屋里来，好好儿的守着他。我去回老太太、太太和二奶奶去。

After Mascara Jade resolved on self-destruction she went into a decline, until there came a day when she could eat nothing. For the first fortnight or so, when the old lady and others took it in turn to call, she had still been able to say a few words, but these last two days she remained virtually silent. Sometimes she lay in a coma, sometimes she had lucid spells. Wondering what had brought on this illness, her grandmother questioned her maids a couple of times. But how dared they tell her the truth? Nightingale wanted to ask Book Server to confirm the report but feared that would only hasten her young lady’s death, and so when she saw Book Server she held her tongue. And Snow Goose, as she knew that her tattling was the root of this trouble and only wished she could grow a hundred tongues to deny it, was of course even more afraid to speak out. The day that Mascara Jade abstained completely from food, Nightingale felt that the end had come and, for a while, remained weeping at her side. Then she came out and whispered to Snow Goose, “Go in and look after her carefully while I go to tell the mistresses.

今日这个光景，大非往常可比了。”雪雁答应，紫鹃自去。这里雪雁正在屋里伴着黛玉，见他昏昏沉沉，小孩子家那里见过这个样儿，只打谅如此便是死的光景了，心中又痛又怕，恨不得紫鹃一时回来才好。正怕着，只听窗外脚步走响，雪雁知是紫鹃回来，才放下心了，连忙站起来，掀着里间帘子等他。只见外面帘子响处，进来了一个人，却是侍书。那侍书是探春打发来看黛玉的，见雪雁在那里掀着帘子，便问道：“姑娘怎么样？”雪雁点点头儿，叫他进来。侍书跟进来，见紫鹃不在屋里，睄了睄黛玉，只剩得残喘微延，唬的惊疑不止，因问：“紫鹃姐姐呢？”雪雁道：“告诉上屋里去了。”

It's not what it used to be." Snowgoose promised, and Nightingale left. Here snow goose is in the house with Mascara Jade Forest, see him in a daze, children have seen such a look, I just think that is the scene of death, the heart of pain and fear, I wish Nightingale back for a while. As he was afraid, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the window. The snow goose knew it was Nightingale coming back, and he was relieved. He stood up and lifted the curtain between the inner room and waited for him. Outside the curtain rang, a man came in, but it was a page.

It's not what it used to be." Snowgoose promised, and Nightingale left. Here Snowgoose is in the house with Mascara Jade Forest, see him in a daze, children have seen such a look, I just think that is the scene of death, the heart of pain and fear, I wish Nightingale back for a while. As he was afraid, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the window. Snowgoose knew it was Nightingale coming back, and he was relieved.

那雪雁此时只打谅黛玉心中一无所知了，又见紫鹃不在面前，因悄悄的拉了侍书的手问道：“你前日告诉我说的什么王大爷给这里宝二爷说了亲，是真话么？”侍书道：“怎么不真！”雪雁道：“多早晚放定的？”侍书道：“那里就放定了呢？那一天我告诉你时，是我听见小红说的。后来我到二奶奶那边去，二奶奶正和平姐姐说呢，道：‘那都是门客们借着这个事讨老爷的喜欢，往后好拉拢的意思。别说大太太说不好，就是大太太愿意，说那姑娘好，那大太太眼里看的出什么人来？再者，老太太心里早有了人了，就在咱们园子里的，大太太那里摸的着底呢？老太太不过因老爷的话，不得不问问罢咧。’

Snowgoose decided to take advantage of Nightingale’s absence to question Scribe. Taking her by the hand, she asked in a whisper: ‘Did you really mean what you said the other day about Mr Wang, and Master Bao’s betrothal?’ ‘Of course I did!’ replied Scribe. ‘When was it settled?’ ‘I never said it was! What I told you was just what I’d heard from Crimson. Later I was at Mrs Lian’s myself, and heard her say to Patience that the whole thing was something the Master’s literary gentlemen had thought up, to please him and provide themselves with a connection. As it happened Lady Xing didn’t even think it a good match. But even if she had approved, everyone knows how unreliable her judgement is. Besides, Her Old Ladyship already has someone else in mind for Master Bao, someone here in the Garden. Lady Xing had no idea of that, of course, and Her Old Ladyship only allowed them to go ahead with the normal inquiries for the Master’s sake.

又听见二奶奶说：‘宝玉的事，老太太总是要亲上作亲的，凭谁来说亲，横竖不中用。’”雪雁听到这里，也忘了神了，因说道：“这是怎么说！白白的送了我们这一位的命了！”侍书道：“这是从那里说起？”雪雁道：“你还不知道呢！前日都是我和紫鹃姐姐说来着，这一位听见了，就弄到这步田地了。”侍书道：“你悄悄儿的说罢，看仔细他听见了。”雪雁道：“人事都不省了，睄睄罢，左不过在这一两天了。”正说着，只见紫鹃掀帘进来说：“这还了得！你们有什么话，还不出去说，还在这里说！索性逼死他就完了。”侍书道：“我不信有这样奇事。”

"Then I heard the second madam Phoenix said, 'As for Precious Jade, the old lady is bound to choose a relative to be his wife. There's no other possibility no matter who wants to act as a matchmaker. '" When Snowgoose heard this, she also forgot herself and said, "Why? Our young lady’s dying for no reason!" "What do you mean?" Snowgoose said, "You don't know yet! It was me and sister Nightingale who talked about it the other day. She overheard about it, and that's why she's becoming increasingly depressed." Book Server said, "Speak quietly, in case she will hear you." Snowgoose replied, "She is unconscious and can hardly last for more than one or two days." Just then, Nightingale lifted the curtain and said, "What are you doing! What do you have to say here? Just go out and say anything you like. Or you're simply forcing her to die!" "I don't believe in such things," said Book Server.

紫鹃道：“好姐姐，不是我说，你又该恼了。你懂得什么呢！懂得也不传这些舌了。”这里三个人正说着，只听黛玉忽然又嗽了一声，紫鹃连忙跑到炕沿前站着，侍书雪雁也都不言语了。紫鹃弯着腰，在黛玉身后轻轻问道：“姑娘，喝口水罢？”黛玉微微答应了一声。雪雁连忙倒了半钟滚白水，紫鹃接了托着，侍书也走近前来。紫鹃和他摇头儿，不叫他说话，侍书只得咽住了。站了一回，黛玉又嗽了一声。紫鹃趁势问道：“姑娘，喝水呀？”黛玉又微微应了一声，那头似有欲抬之意，那里抬得起？紫鹃爬上炕去，爬在黛玉旁边，端着水，试了冷热，送到唇边，扶了黛玉的头，就到碗边，喝了一口。

Nightingale said: "Good sister, I didn't mean to say it, otherwise you should be annoyed again. What do you know! You won’t spread these words if you really know that." The three people here were talking, only to hear Mascara Jade cough again, Nightingale hurried to stand in front of the edge of the bed , Bookserver and Snowgoose were speechless. Nightingale bent over and asked softly behind Mascara Jade, "Miss, why don't you drink some water?" Daiyu agreed slightly. Snowgoose hurriedly poured half a cup of the hot water. Nightingale took it and held it, and Bookserver also approached. Nightingale shook her head with Nightingale, not telling her to speak, had to swallow. After standing for a while, Mascara Jade coughed again. Nightingale took advantage of the situation and asked, "Miss, do you want to drink water?" Mascara Jade responded slightly, she seemed to want to be lifted, where can it be lifted? Nightingale climbed onto the bed, crawled beside Mascara Jade, held the water, tested the heat and cold, brought it to her lips, supported Mascara Jade's head, went to the bowl, and took a sip.

紫鹃才要拿时，黛玉意思还要喝一口，紫鹃便托着那碗不动。黛玉又喝了一口，摇摇头儿，不喝了。喘了一口气，仍旧躺下。半日，微微睁眼，说道：“刚才说话不是侍书么？”紫鹃答应道：“是。”侍书尚未出去，因连忙过来问候。黛玉睁眼看了，点点头儿，又歇了一歇，说道：“回去问你姑娘好罢。”侍书见这番光景，只当黛玉嫌烦，只得悄悄的退出去了。原来那黛玉虽则病势沉重，心里却还明白。起先侍书雪雁说话时，他也模糊听见了一半句，却只作不知，也因实无精神答理。及听了雪雁侍书的话，才明白过前头的事情原是议而未成的。

As Mascara Jade was eager for more water, instead of removing the cup Nightingale held it there so she took another sip. Then Mascara Jade shook her head, meaning it's enough, and lay down again with a sigh. After a while, opening her eyes slightly, she asked: "Was that Book Server?" "Yes," said Nightingale. Book Server had not left, hurriedly came over to greet her. Mascara Jade opened her eyes and nodded to her. Taking a short break, she said, "When you return home, extend my regards to your mistress." Guessing that Mascara Jade wanted to rest alone, Book Server sneaked out. Now Mascara Jade was seriously ill but she had been clear in her mind. She had heard a sentence vaguely but she pretended to know nothing about it, owing to her weakness. From what she overheard she realized that the match proposed had not been agreed to.

又兼侍书说是凤姐说的，老太太的主意，亲上作亲，又是园中住着的，非自己而谁？因此一想，阴极阳生，心神顿觉清爽许多，所以才喝了两口水，又要想问侍书的话。恰好贾母、王夫人、李纨、凤姐听见紫鹃之言都赶着来看。黛玉心中疑团已破，自然不似先前寻死之意了。虽身体软弱，精神短少，却也勉强答应一两句了。凤姐因叫过紫鹃，问道：“姑娘也不至这样。这是怎么说，你这样唬人。”紫鹃道：“实在头里看着不好，才敢去告诉的。回来见姑娘竟好了许多，也就怪了。”贾母笑道：“你也别怪他。他懂得什么？看见不好就言语，这倒是他明白的地方。小孩子家不嘴懒脚懒就好。”

And then Book Server had quoted Splendid Phoenix as saying that Grandma Merchant intended to marry Precious Jade to one of his relatives from the girls in the Garden. But who could that be if not her? At this thought, her despair gave way to joy and her mind became clearer too. Therefore, she drank some water and even wanted to question Book Server. Just then the old lady arrived with Lady King, Silk Plum and Splendid Phoenix who had hurried over after hearing Nightingale's report. Mascara Jade, her fears set at rest now, naturally no longer wanted to die. Though still weak and low in spirits, she managed to in reply to their inquiries briefly. Seeing this, Splendid Phoenix called Nightingale over and asked her. "Your young lady's not in such a bad way after all. What do you mean by frightening us like that?" "Honestly, she really looked bad," replied Nightingale. "Otherwise I wouldn't have dared to brother you. But now, coming back, I'm quite amazed to find her so much better." "Don't take what she says so seriously. What does she understand?" said Grandma Merchant with a smile. "When something's wrong, it shows good sense to report it. I like a girl who's not too lazy to say a word or do anything."

说了一回，贾母等料着无妨，也就去了。正是：心病终须心药治，解铃还是系铃人。不言黛玉病渐减退。且说雪雁紫鹃背地里都念佛。雪雁向紫鹃说道：“亏他好了，只是病的奇怪，好的也奇怪。”紫鹃道：“病的倒不怪，就只好的奇怪。想来宝玉和姑娘必是姻缘，人家说的：‘好事多磨。’又说道：‘是姻缘棒打不回’。这样看起来，人心天意，他们两个竟是天配的了。再者，你想那一年，我说了林姑娘要回南去，把宝玉没急死了，闹得家翻宅乱；如今一句话又把这一个弄得死去活来：可不说的‘三生石上’百年前结下的么？”说着，两个悄悄的抿着嘴笑了一回。

Persuaded for once, they thought uselessly and went out. That was “Heart disease need drug treatment”. Precious Jade was recovered while Nightingale and Snowgoose prayed to God for many times. Snowgoose said to Nightingale: “What a relief she finnaly recovered! Her illness was odd so was her recovery!” Nightingale replied: “Her illness was not but her recovery is. I think that she and Baoyu must be destined for each other. However, the marrige can hardly be smooth and no one can prevent a match made in the heaven. So it seems that they are fated to marry. Another thing: remember that year when I told Precious Jade that Mascara Jade would be going back home? He went into a frenzy, and he nearly turned the whole household upside down!

雪雁又道：“幸亏好了！咱们明儿再别说了，就是宝玉娶了别的人家儿的姑娘，我亲见他在那里结亲，我也再不露一句话了。”紫鹃笑道：“这就是了。”不但紫鹃和雪雁在私下里讲究，就是众人也都知道黛玉的病也病得奇怪，好也好得奇怪，三三两两，唧唧哝哝议论着。不多几时，连凤姐儿也知道了，邢王二夫人也有些疑惑，倒是贾母略猜着了八九。那时正值邢王二夫人、凤姐等在贾母房中说闲话，说起黛玉的病来。贾母道：“我正要告诉你们，宝玉和林丫头是从小儿在一处的，我只说小孩子们，怕什么？以后时常听得林丫头忽然病，忽然好，都为有了些知觉了。

Snowgoose said again: "Fortunately, Mascara Jade Forest recovers from her illness! Let's not talk about it afterward. Even if I saw Precious Jade Merchant married a girl from another family, I won't say a word again." Nightingale smiled, "That's right." Not only did Nightingale and Snowgoose talk about it in private, but everyone thought that Mascara Jade Forest got ill and recovered from illness strangely, people gathered in groups muttering about it. After a while, even Splendid Phoenix King knew it, Lady City and Lady King also had some doubts, but Grandma Merchant probably had guessed the reason. At that time, Lady City and Lady King were gossiping with Splendid Phoenix King in Grandma Merchant's room and talking about Mascara Jade Forest's illness. Grandma Merchant said, "I was just about to tell you that Precious Jade and Mascara Jade Forest have been together since childhood. I just want to say that children don't need to be afraid? From then on, I often heard that Mascara Jade Forest often fell ill and got better unexpectedly, all that because she became conscious again." --[[User:Li Simin|Li Simin]] ([[User talk:Li Simin|talk]]) 14:20, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

所以我想他们若尽着搁在一块儿，毕竟不成体统。你们怎么说？”王夫人听了，便呆了一呆，只得答应道：“林姑娘是个有心计儿的。至于宝玉，呆头呆恼，不避嫌疑是有的。看起外面，却还都是个小孩儿形像。此时若忽然或把那一个分出园外，不是倒露了什么痕迹了么。古来说的：‘男大须婚，女大须嫁。’老太太想，倒是赶着把他们的事办办也罢了。”贾母皱了一皱眉，说道：“林丫头的乖僻，虽也是他的好处，我的心里不把林丫头配他，也是为这点子；况且林丫头这样虚弱，恐不是有寿的。只有宝丫头最妥。”

I think it's inappropriate to keep the two of them together all the time. What do you think? Lady King was stunned for a while, and replied, "Mascara Jade Forest is a scheming person. Precious Jade Merchant, on the other hand, was dumbfounded and did not shy away from staying with him. Both of them looked like children in appearance. But wouldn't it be too deliberate to let the two of them live in different places at this time? As the old saying goes: 'Both men and women need to get married when they are grown-ups.' I think you can consider about marriage for the two of them. "Grandma Merchant frowned and said, "Mascara Jade Forest has an eccentric personality. Although this is also her strength, I think it is also because of this that he doesn’t deserve Precious Jade Merchant."

王夫人道：“不但老太太这么想，我们也是这样。但林姑娘也得给他说了人家儿才好。不然，女孩儿家长大了，那个没有心事？倘或真与宝玉有些私心，若知道宝玉定下宝丫头，那倒不成事了。”贾母道：“自然先给宝玉娶了亲，然后给林丫头说人家。再没有先是外人、后是自己的。况且林丫头年纪到底比宝玉小两岁。依你们这样说，倒是宝玉定亲的话，不许叫他知道倒罢了。”凤姐便吩咐众丫头们道：“你们听见了？宝二爷定亲的话，不许混吵嚷；若有多嘴的，提防着他的皮！”贾母又向凤姐道：“凤哥儿，你如今自从身上不大好，也不大管园里的事了。我告诉你，须得经点儿心。

Lady King said, "Not only the Old Lady thinks so, but so do we. But we must arrange a marriage for Mascara Jade too. Otherwise, A growing girl is bound to have some secrets her heart. If she really has some affairs with Precious Jade and hears that he’s engaged to Precious Hairpin, we’re going to have a problem on our hands." Grandma Merchant said, "Naturally, we should arrange a marriage for Precious Jade first, and then arrange for Mascara Jade. Who ever heard of arranging a marriage for someone else’s child before one’s own? Besides, Mascara Jade is two years younger than Precious Jade. Still, there’s truth in what you said, so Precious Jade's engagement must not be made known to him." Sister Phoenix then commanded the maids: "Did you hear that? Mind you don’t gossip about Master Precious’s engagement. If anyone talks, she should be careful to be punished!" Grandma Merchant said to Sister Phoenix: "Sister Phoenix, since you are ill now, and do not take care of what goes on in the Garden. I'm telling you, you have to be careful.

不但这个，就像前年那些人喝酒耍钱，都不是事。你还精细些，少不得多分点心儿，严紧严紧他们才好。况且我看他们也就只还服你。”凤姐答应了。娘儿们又说了一回话，方各自散了。从此，凤姐常到园中照料。一日，刚走进大观园，到了紫菱洲畔，只听见一个老婆子在那里嚷。凤姐走到跟前，那婆子才瞧见了，早垂手侍立，口里请了安。凤姐道：“你在这里闹什么？”婆子道：“蒙奶奶们派我在这里看守花果，我也没有差错，不料邢姑娘的丫头说我们是贼。”凤姐道：“为什么呢？”婆子道：“昨儿我们家的黑儿跟着我到这里顽了一回，他不知道，又往邢姑娘那边去瞧了一瞧，我就叫他回去了。

When Xi-feng came up to her, the old woman caught sight of her and stood by her side with her hands down. She greeted her respects, and Xi-feng said:"What are you arguing for?"

今儿早起，听见他们丫头说，丢了东西了。我问他丢了什么，他就问起我来了。”凤姐道：“问了你一声，也犯不着生气呀。”婆子道：“这里园子，到底是奶奶家里的，并不是他们家里的。我们都是奶奶派的，贼名儿怎么敢认呢？”凤姐照脸啐了一口，厉声道：“你少在我跟前唠唠叨叨的！你在这里照看，姑娘丢了东西，你们就该问哪，怎么说出这些没道理的话来？把老林叫了来，撵出他去。”丫头们答应了。只见邢岫烟赶忙出来，迎着凤姐陪笑道：“这使不得，没有的事，事情早过去了。”凤姐道：“姑娘，不是这个话。倒不讲事情，这名分上太岂有此理了。”

Early this morning, I heard their maid say that they lost something. Then, I asked what it was, and she began to ask me about that," she said. "You don't need to be angry about their asking," Sister Phoenix said. "This Garden belongs to the Lady's family, not to hers. We serve the Lady, so how dare I admit the slander of being a thief?" the old woman said. Sister Phoenix spat at her face and spoke to her with a harsh tone. "Stop your nonsense! You take care of this place, so you should be responsible for that if the mistress lost something. How could you say something like this? Call Old Forest to send her out," she said. At this moment, Cave Cloud City came out in a hurry. "There is no need to do this. It's nothing, and it's gone," she said to Sister Phoenix with smile. "Mistress. it's not this case. Put this thing away for a moment, and the servants need to know their place," Sister Phoenix said.

This morning, her maid told me something was missing. When I asked what it was, she started questioning me!”“That’s nothing to get so worked up about.”“Well, this Garden belongs to our mistress’ family, not to theirs. It’s our mistress who put us in charge here; so how dare they call us thieves?”Splendid Phoenix King spat in her face. “Don’t give me that talk!” she said sternly. “You’re here to keep an eye on things. When a young lady loses some�thing, you should look into it. How can you maunder in this senseless fashion?”She ordered her maids to fetch Lin Zhixiao’s wife to drive the woman away. At once Tadpole Marshgrass came out to greet her with a smile.“Please don’t,” she said. “It’s of no account — over and done with.”“That’s not the point, cousin,” said Splendid Phoenix King. “Quite apart from your losing something, she’s gone too far, forgetting her place like that.”Seeing that the woman was kneeling to beg for pardon, Tadpole Marshgrass invited Splendid Phoenix King in to sit down.“I know these creatures,”Splendid Phoenix King went on. “I’m the only one of the mistresses they treat with any respect.”--[[User:Li Zijie|Li Zijie]] ([[User talk:Li Zijie|talk]]) 13:59, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

岫烟见婆子跪在地下告饶，便忙请凤姐到里边去坐。凤姐道：“他们这种人，我知道他，除了我，其余都没上没下的了。”岫烟再三替他讨饶，只说自己的丫头不好。凤姐道：“我看着邢姑娘的分上，饶你这一次。”婆子才起来磕了头，又给岫烟磕了头，才出去了。这里二人让了坐，凤姐笑问道：“你丢了什么东西了？”岫烟笑道：“没有什么要紧的，是一件红小袄儿，已经旧了的。我原叫他们找，找不着就罢了。这小丫头不懂事，问了那婆子一声，那婆子自然不依了。这都是小丫头糊涂不懂事，我也骂了几句。已经过去了，不必再提了。”
Still Tadpole Marshgrass begged her to let the woman off, saying her own maid was to blame.
“Well, for Miss Xing’s sake then, I’ll overlook it this time,” conceded Splendid Phoenix King.The woman kowtowed her thanks to them both and went off, where�upon they sat down.“What have you lost?” asked Splendid Phoenix King with a smile.“Nothing much, just a red jacket, an old one. When I told them to look for it and they couldn’t find it, I said it didn’t matter. But my maid is so silly she asked that woman about it, and of course that put her back up. It’s all this silly girl’s fault, and I’ve given her a scolding, so that’s that. We may as well forget about it.

凤姐把岫烟内外一瞧，看见虽有些皮绵衣服，已是半新不旧的，未必能暖和，他的被窝多半是薄的。至于房中桌上摆设的东西，就是老太太拿来的，却一些不动，收拾的干干净净。凤姐心上便狠爱敬他，说道：“一件衣服，原不要紧。这时候冷，又是贴身的，怎么就不问一声儿呢？这撒野的奴才，了不得了！”说了一回，凤姐出来，各处去坐了一坐，就回去了。到了自己房中，叫平儿取了一件大红洋绉的小袄儿，一件松花色绫子一抖珠儿的小皮袄，一条宝蓝盘锦镶花绵裙，一件佛青银鼠褂子，包好叫人送去。那时岫烟被那老婆子聒噪了一场，虽有凤姐来压住，心上终是不安。
Splendid Pheonix sized up Cave Cloud. She found that though Cave Cloud wore leathered and cotton-padded clothes, the clothes were all worn-out and might not be able to keep warm. And her quilt might be thin. As for the things on her table, those brought by Grandma, she didn't use them at all and tidied them up on her table. Splendid Pheonix then sincerely respected and liked her. She then said, "A coat is no big deal. It's cold recently and clothes are to be worn. Why didn't you tell us. Those damn servants. They are totally out of the line." After saying, Splendid Pheonix walked outside and went around each place before returning. After returning to her own room, she asked Patience to brought a red coat, a brown coat with decorative beads, a royal blue cotton thermal dress and a green unlined garment. After packing these clothes up, she asked a servant to send them to Cave Cloud. Cave Cloud was bullied by those nanny servants. Though Splendid Pheonix offered her help, she was still worried.

想起“许多姐妹们在这里，没有一个下人敢得罪他的，独自我这里，他们言三语四，刚刚凤姐来碰见”。想来想去，终是没意思，又说不出来。正在吞声饮泣，看见凤姐那边的丰儿送衣服过来。岫烟一看，决不肯受。丰儿道：“奶奶吩咐我说：‘姑娘要嫌是旧衣裳，将来送新的来。’”岫烟笑谢道：“承奶奶的好意。只是因我丢了衣服，他就拿来，我断不敢受。拿回去，千万谢你们奶奶！承你奶奶的情，我算领了。”倒拿个荷包给了丰儿，那丰儿只得拿了去了。不多时，又见平儿同着丰儿过来，岫烟忙迎着问了好，让了坐。平儿笑说道：“我们奶奶说：姑娘特外道的了不得！”

I remembered that "Many sisters here dare not to offend her, except me. They all bullied me, but Splendid Phoenix happened to meet this matter." Thinking about it, she found no need of complaining but felt too sad to say something. She was sobbing and then saw Feng'er, a servant of Splendid Phoenix, sending clothes over. Cave Cloud looked at it and refused to accept it. Feng Er said, "The lady told me: 'if you refuse to accept the used clothes and we will send new ones in the near future.' Cave Cloud smiled and thanked her, "A lot of thanks to the lady's kindness. I won't take it, just because I lost my clothes. Please take it back and send my thanks to your lady. I gratefully accept her kindness. " And then she took a purse and gave it to Feng'er, and Feng'er seeing her had made her mind took it back." Not long after, Patience came with Feng'er again, and Cave Cloud hurriedly greeted them and offer them seats. Patience smiled and said, "Our lady said: 'you are very impersonal!'”

岫烟道：“不是外道，实在不过意。”平儿道：“奶奶说，姑娘要不收这衣裳，不是嫌太旧，就是瞧不起我们奶奶。刚才说了：我要拿回去，奶奶不依我呢。”岫烟红着脸笑谢道：“这样说了，叫我不敢不收。”又让了一回茶。平儿同丰儿回去，将到凤姐那边，碰见薛家差来的一个老婆子，接着问好。平儿便问道：“你那里来的？”婆子道：“那边太太、姑娘叫我来请各位太太、奶奶、姑娘们的安。我才刚在奶奶前问起姑娘来，说姑娘到园中去了。可是从邢姑娘那里来么？”平儿道：“你怎么知道？”婆子道：“方才听见说，真真的二奶奶和姑娘们的行事叫人感念！”

Cave Cloud said:"No, I just think I don't deserve that." Patience said:" Grandma said you just think it's too old or look down her if you don't accept it. And just I've told you that Grandma won't be happy if i bring it back." Cave Cloud smiled with blushing face:"Ok, I'll keep it." Then they drunk the tea, and Patience came back with Abundance. When they were close to the yard of Splendid Phoenix, they met a old maid from the house of Marshgrass and greeted each other. Patience asked her:"Where are you from?" The old maid replied:"The maitress and lady of the house of Marshgrass asked me to greet the maitresses, grandmas and the ladies. Just now I asked the grandma about the ladies, and she said that the lady went to the garden. Are you back from the lady City?" Patience said:" How do you know it?"

平儿笑了一笑说：“你回来坐着罢。”婆子道：“我还有事，改日再过来瞧姑娘罢。”说着走了。平儿回来，回复了凤姐。不在话下。且说薛姨妈家中被金桂搅得翻江倒海，看见婆子回来，说起岫烟的事，宝钗母女二人不免滴下泪来。宝钗道：“都为哥哥不在家，所以叫邢姑娘多吃几天苦。如今还亏凤姐姐不错。咱们底下也得留心，到底是咱们家里人。”说着，只见薛蝌进来说道：“大哥哥这几年在外头相与的都是些什么人！连一个正经的也没有，来一起子，都是些狐群狗党。我看他们那里是不放心，不过将来探探消息儿罢咧。这两天都被我赶出去了。以后吩咐了门上，不许传进这种人来。”

Patience smiled a little, "Why don’t you stay for a cup of tea?" "I got things to do. I'll pay a visit some other day."The old woman replied as she started to walk away. Patience returned and reported it to Sister Phoenix. The other side, Marshgrass’ Family was totally stirred by Goldish Osmanthus. When the old women came back and brought up what happened to Cave Cloud Marshgrass, both Aunt Marshgrass and Precious Hairpin shed tears. "It’s brother not being home that makes her miserable. To our comfort, Sister Phoenix has been good to her. We need to pay more attention to her since she’s of the family too.” said Precious Hairpin. As she speak, Tadpole Marshgrass came in and said, "I can't believe the friends that brother has made over the years. None of them is good, just like a bunch of thugs. They are not caring about us, but curious about the latest news. So I throw them away these days, and told the gatekeeper not to let them in."--[[User:Liu Lele|Liu Lele]] ([[User talk:Liu Lele|talk]]) 13:02, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

薛姨妈道：“又是蒋玉菡那些人哪？”薛蝌道：“蒋玉菡却倒没来，倒是别人。”薛姨妈听了薛蝌的话，不觉又伤心起来，说道：“我虽有儿，如今就像没有的了。就是上司准了，也是个废人。你虽是我侄儿，我看你还比你哥哥明白些，我这后辈子全靠你了。你自己从今更要学好。再者，你聘下的媳妇儿，家道不比往时了。人家的女孩儿出门子不是容易，再没别的想头，只盼着女婿能干，他就有日子过了。若邢丫头也像这个东西……”说着，把手往里头一指，道：“我也不说了。邢丫头实在是个有廉耻有心计儿的，又守得贫，耐得富。

“Are they Jiang Yuhan’s lot?” asked Aunt Marshgrass.“No, Jiang Yuhan hasn’t come. These are some others.” Dragon Marshgrass’s outburst had further lowered Aunt Marshgrass’s spirits.“Though I have a son, it’s as if I had none,” she sighed. “Even if the authorities let him off, he’ll be useless. Though you’re my nephew, and not so close, I can see that you have more sense than Pan and will be my only prop in my old age. It’s up to you to make a success of your life. Especially as the family of your betrothed isn’t as well off as before. It’s hard for a girl to leave home and get married, and all she hopes for is an able husband who will provide for her.

只是等咱们的事过去了，早些儿把你们的正经事完结了，也了我一宗心事。”薛蝌道：“琴妹妹还没有出门子，这倒是太太烦心的一件事。至于这个，可算什么呢。”大家又说了一回闲话，薛蝌回到自己房中，吃了晚饭，，终是寄人篱下；况且又穷，日用起居不想可知。况兼当初一路同来，模样儿，性格儿，都知道的。可知天意不均：如夏金桂这种人，偏叫他有钱，娇养得这般泼辣；邢岫烟这种人，偏叫他这样受苦。阎王判命的时候，不知如何判法的？想到闷来，也想吟诗一首，写出来出出胸中的闷气，又苦自己没有工夫，只得混写道：

He thought to himself, “Xiuyan's living in the Jias' Garden as a dependent, and being a poor relation she must be having a thin time of it. As we travelled here together, I know her character and what she's like. Heaven is really unjust, giving a spoilt bitch like Xia Jingui money while a girl like Xiuyan is so badly off. What was in the mind of the Great Arbiter Yama when he made such a dispensation? He wanted to write a poem to vent his frustration, but as he had no training in versification he could only pen the following doggerel:

I may as well paste it up for my own amusement.” Reading it once more, however, he decided it really was no good and put it between the pages of a book. “I’m no longer a boy,” he mused, “but now our family’s run into this bad trouble and there’s no knowing when it will blow over. It’s keeping that sweet, gentle girl so sad and lonely!” His reflections were cut short by the arrival of Precious Toad with a hamper which she put on the table, smiling. Tadpole Marshgrass got up and invited her to be seated. “Here are four dishes of sweetmeats and one small pot of wine,” she announced archly. “My mistress told me to bring them to you.”

薛蝌陪笑道：“大奶奶费心！但是叫小丫头们送来就完了，怎么又劳动姐姐呢？”宝蟾道：“好说。自家人，二爷何必说这些套话？再者，我们大爷这件事，实在叫二爷操心，大奶奶久已要亲自弄点什么儿谢二爷，又怕别人多心。二爷是知道的，咱们家里都是言合意不合，送点子东西没要紧，倒没的惹人七嘴八舌的讲究。所以今日些微的弄了一两样果子，一壶酒，叫我亲自悄悄儿的送来。”说着，又笑瞅了薛蝌一眼，道：“明儿二爷再别说这些话，叫人听着怪不好意思的。我们不过也是底下的人；伏侍的着大爷，就伏侍的着二爷，这有何妨呢？”

薛蝌一则秉性忠厚，二则到底年轻，只是向来不见金桂和宝蟾如此相待，心中想到刚才宝蟾说为薛蟠之事，也是情理，因说道：“果子留下罢，这个酒儿，姐姐只管拿回去。我向来的酒上实在狠有限，挤住了，偶然喝一钟；平日无事，是不能喝的。难道大奶奶和姐姐还不知道么？”宝蟾道：“别的我作得主，独这一件事，我可不敢应。大奶奶的脾气儿，二爷是知道的：我拿回去，不说二爷不喝，倒要说我不尽心了。”薛蝌没法，只得留下。宝蟾方才要走，又到门口往外看看，回过头来向着薛蟾一笑；又用手指着里面说道：“他还只怕要来亲自给你道乏呢。”

Tadpole Marshgrass was a simple, honest young fellow. He had never been treated like this by Goldish Osmanthus and Precious Toad before; yet as the latter said it was to thank him for helping Dragon Marshgrass, this seemed to him quite natural. “Leave the dishes, sister,” he said. “But please take back the wine. I really can’t drink much, just a cup occasionally when I’m forced to, but ordinarily I never drink. Surely your mistress and you knew that?” “I can use my own discretion in other matters,” she replied, “but I can’t obey you in this. You know what our mistress is like. If I took it back, she wouldn’t think it’s because you don’t drink but because I’d been remiss.” So Tadpole Marshgrass had to let her leave the wine. Then Precious Toad went to the door and peeped outside. Turning back to smile at him, she pointed towards the inner rooms. “I dare say he’ll be coming herself to thank you,” she said.

薛蝌不知何意，反倒讪讪的起来，因说道：“姐姐替我谢大奶奶罢。天气寒，看凉着。再者，自己叔嫂也不必拘这些个礼。”宝蟾也不答言，笑着走了。薛蝌始而以为金桂为薛蟠之事，或者真是不过意，备此酒果给自己道乏，也是有的。及见了宝蟾这种鬼鬼祟祟、不尴不尬的光景，也觉了几分，却自己回心一想：“他到底是嫂子的名分，那里就有别的讲究了呢？或者宝蟾不老成，自己不好意思怎么样，却指着金桂的名儿，也未可知。然而到底是哥哥的屋里人，也不好……”忽又一转念：“那金桂素性为人，毫无闺阁理法，况且有时高兴，打扮得妖调非常，自以为美，又焉知不是怀着坏心呢？Tadpole Marshgrass had no idea about it, but merely snapping back with the words,"Please oblige me to thank for her. You'd better go back for the cold whether outside in case of catching a cold. Besides, there's no need to stand on ceremony for they are my elder brother and sister-in-law." Hearing that, Precious Toad left with no words but laughter. At first, Tadpole Marshgrass thought this fruit wine was indeed prepared by Goldish Osmanthus for his help for Dragon Marshgrass. And such conjecture was fueled more at seeing Precious Toad's creepy and embarrassing behavior, but he then thought to himself,"Is there any difference about this? She eventually was a maid of sister-in-law. Maybe Precious Toad is too shy herself for she is still too young, thus doing this in the name of Goldish Osmanthus' order. However, she is still a part of elder brother's family, it's not quite suitable..." He then changed his mind,"Goldish Osmanthus usually shows no respects for law and bad manners, and would dress up thinking that she is a beauty when delighted, for who can assure there's no evil intentions with her."

He dared not eat the wine and closed the door. When he was about to undress, he only heard a slight sound on the window paper. Tadpole Marshgrass was fooled around by the Precious Toad for a while.

When Tadpole Marshgrass was suspicious, he suddenly heard a smile outside the window and thought, "If it's not Precious Toad, it must be Goldish Osmanthus. Just ignore them and see what they can do. " Tadpole Marshgrass listened for a long time, but it was silent again. He dared not eat the wine, so he closed the door. When he was about to undress, he only heard a slight sound on the window paper. Tadpole Marshgrass was fooled around by the Precious Toad for a while. He was so upset that he didn't know what to do. He heard the window paper rattling slightly. However, when he looked at it, nothing was happening. So he became suspicious, and then sat in front of the lamp, and thought blankly with tight clothes.--[[User:Nie Wei|Nie Wei]] ([[User talk:Nie Wei|talk]]) 06:00, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

又把那果子拿了一块，翻来覆去的细看。猛回头，看见窗上纸湿了一块。走过来觑着眼看时，冷不防外面往里一吹，把薛蝌唬了一大跳。听得“吱吱”的笑声，薛蝌连忙把灯吹灭了，屏息而卧。只听外面一个人说道：“二爷为什么不喝酒吃果子，就睡了？”这句话仍是宝蟾的语音，薛蝌只不作声装睡。又隔有两句话时，又听得外面似有恨声道：“天下那里有这样没造化的人！”薛蝌听了是宝蟾，又似是金桂的语音，这才知道他们原来是这一番意思。翻来覆去，直到五更后才睡着了。刚到天明，早有人来扣门。薛蝌忙问：“是谁？”外面也不答应。

Then he picked up a piece of desert and looked at it over and over. Suddenly he turned his back and found that part of the window paster paper was wet. So he walked close and peered at it, only to be taken aback all of a sudden by someone’s blowing through the window. Hearing the giggle outside, Tadpole Marshgrass went to blow out the candle and then lied on his bed while holding his breath. At that time, someone outside the room said, “ Why does he go to bed without drinking or eating anything?” It still sounds like Precious Toad’s voice, but Tadpole Marshgrass pretended to be asleep without saying a word. After a while, it seemed that someone outside said grudgingly, “ How could he be such a sissy!” Judging by the voice, he thought it would be Precious Toad or Goldish Osmanthus. Then he figured out what they really meant. He couldn’t sleep, but kept tossing and turning in bed until the five watches of the night. As soon as the dawn broke, someone knocked at his door. He asked, “ Who is that?” But no one ever gave him a reply.

薛蝌只得起来，开了门看时，却是宝蟾，拢着头发，掩着怀，穿一件片锦边琵琶襟小紧身，上面系一条松花绿半新的汗巾，下面并未穿裙，正露着石榴红洒花夹裤，一双新绣红鞋。原来宝蟾尚未梳洗，恐怕人见，赶早来取家伙。薛蝌见他这样打扮便走进来，心中又是一动，只得陪笑问道：“怎么这样早就起来了？”宝蟾把脸红着，并不答言，只管把果子折在一个碟子里，端着就走。薛蝌见他这般，知是昨晚的原故，心里想道：“这也罢了。倒是他们恼了，索性死了心，也省得来缠。”于是把心放下，唤人舀水洗脸，自己打算在家里静坐两天，一则养养心神，二则出去怕人找他。

Tadpole Marshgrass had no alternative but to get up to open the door, only to find Precious Toad standing in front of him. With hair pulled back and upper garment unbuttoned, Precious Toad was dressed in a straight-jacket adorned with Biwa collar and brocades, on top of this straight-jacket was attached with a nearly-new green handkerchief. Besides, she wore no skirt but a pair of garnet pants embroidered with flowers and new red embroidered shoes. It turned out that she had not freshened up yet, and being afraid of being encountered with others, she just fetched things as early as possible. It hit Tadpole Marshgrass when he was catching the sight of her such appearance. Then, with face wreathe in smiles, he asked, "Why are you up so early?" Face reddenng with embarrassment Precious Toad didn't reply but to put fruits into a saucer and just carried them away. Knowing the reason why she acted like this, Tadpole Marshgrass thought to himself, "Forget about it! It seems they are annoyed and just make them think no more of this matter so as not to bother me." Therefore, he was relieved and ordered a footboy to bring him water to wash his face then. And he planned to stay in home for two?days without any cogitations, cause he wanted to conserve his energy, and also feared that someone would look for him for another.

原来和薛蟠好的那些人，因见薛家无人，只有薛蝌在那里办事，年纪又轻，便生许多觊觎之心。也有想插在里头做跑腿的；也有能做状子的，认得一二个书役的，要给他上下打点的；甚至有叫他在内趁钱的；也有造作谣言恐吓的：种种不一。薛蝌见了这些人，远远躲避，又不敢面辞，恐怕激出意外之变，只好藏在家中听候传详，不提。且说金桂昨夜打发宝蟾送了些酒果去探探薛蝌的消息，宝蟾回来，将薛蝌的光景一一的说了。金桂见事有些不大投机，便怕白闹一场，反被宝蟾瞧不起；欲把两三句话遮饰，改过口来，又可惜了这个人，心里倒没了主意，怔怔的坐着。

Dragon Marshgrass's former friends now have inordinate ambitions about his family, seeing that there was no one but young Tadpole Marshgrass being in charge of family affairs. Some of them would like to be placed in this mansion as errands runners, some who could write complaints volunteered to bribe officials for Tadpole Marshgrass depending on several clerical acquaintances, some even advised him to take this opportunity to make money and some hectored him with rumors. In the face of such people, Tadpole Marshgrass could only avoid them from afar and dared not refuse them in person for fear of unexpected changes. Therefore, he had to hide in his home and wait for calls. Last night, Goldish Osmanthus sent Precious Toad to inquire about news of Tadpole Marshgrass by delivering some wine and fruit there. When Precious Toad came back, she reported his situation to Goldish Osmanthus in full. Being displeased with the way things were going, Goldish Osmanthus was afraid that Precious Toad would look down on her if she made a scene for nothing. So, she wanted to correct herself by covering up some wrong words, but felt sorry for Tadpole Marshgrass if she did so. Considering that, she was at a loss what to do next and sat there in a trance.

那知宝蟾亦知薛蟠难以回家，正欲寻个头路，因怕金桂拿他，所以不敢透漏。今见金桂所为，先已开了端了，他便乐得借风使船，先弄薛蝌到手，不怕金桂不依，所以用言挑拨。见薛蝌似非无情，又不甚兜揽，一时也不敢造次。后来见薛蝌吹灯自睡，大觉扫兴，回来告诉金桂，看金桂有甚方法，再作道理。及见金桂怔怔的，似乎无技可施，他也只得陪金桂收拾睡了。夜里那里睡得着？翻来复去，想出一个法子来：不如明儿一早起来，先去取了家伙，却自己换上一两件动人的衣服，也不梳洗，越显出一番娇媚来；只看薛蝌的神情，自己反倒装出一番恼意，索性不理他；

Precious Toad did not expect Dragon Marshgrass back and was casting about for a lover, but had not disclosed this to Goldish Osmanthus for fear of the consequences. Now that her mistress had made the first move, she saw it as a good chance to pre-empt Tadpole Marshgrass herself, for then Goldish Osmanthus could hardly raise any objection. That was why she had spoken provocatively to him. When he seemed neither entirely unresponsive nor very forthcoming either, she had hesitated to do anything more rash. Later, when he blew out the light and lay down to sleep, she went back, very disappointed, to tell Goldish Osmanthus and see what she would do. Now that her mistress kept silent as if at a loss, she had to help her to bed and retire herself. But that night how could she sleep? She tossed and turned until she hit on a plan. She would get up first thing the next morning to fetch the hamper, alluringly dressed and with her hair uncombed to reveal her drowsy charms. While watching Tadpole Marshgrass's reaction she would put on a show of anger and ignore him;

==英语笔译庹树梅 Tuo Shumei 202170081596==

那薛蝌若有悔心，自然移船泊岸，不愁不先到手。及至见了薛蝌，仍是昨晚这般光景，并无邪僻之意，自己只得以假为真，端了碟子回来；却故意留下酒壶，以为再来搭转之地。只见金桂问道：“你拿东西去，有人碰见么？”宝蟾道：“没有。”“二爷也没问你什么？”宝蟾道：“也没有。”金桂因一夜不曾睡着，也想不出一个法子来，只得回思道：“若作此事，别人可瞒，宝蟾如何能瞒？不如我分惠于他，他自然没有不尽心的。我又不能自去，少不得要他作脚，倒不如和他商量一个稳便主意。”因带笑说道：“你看二爷到底是个怎么样的人？”

While watching Tadpole Marshgrass‘s reaction she would put on a show of anger and ignore him; but if he showed regret, naturally she would smooth his way and then she could get him first she was sure of that. However, when she tried to execute it, he behaved just as properly as the previous night. All she could do was act as if really affronted and take the dishes back.#3She deliberately left the wine-pot, though, to provide an excuse for returning. Dragon Marshgrass asked her, “Did anyone see you fetch those things?” Precious Toad said：“ No, madam.” “Did Master Tadpole Marshgrass ask you anything?” ‘No.” Precious Toad replied. Since Jingui had lain awake all night unable to think of a plan she now decided, “If I go ahead with this affair, I may be able to keep it a secret from others, but how can I hide it from her?” Besides, I can't seek out Tadpole Marshgrass myself, I'll need her as go-between. So I may as well work out a sound plan with her.” She therefore asked with a smile, “What is your honest opinion of Master Tadpole Marshgrass?

宝蟾道：“倒像个糊涂人。”金桂听了笑道：“你如何说起爷们来了？”宝蟾也笑道：“他辜负奶奶的心，我就说得他！”金桂道：“他怎么辜负我的心？你倒得说说。”宝蟾道：“奶奶给他好东西吃，他倒不吃，这不是辜负奶奶的心么？”说着，却把眼溜着金桂一笑。金桂道：“你别胡想！我给他送东西，为大爷的事不辞劳苦，我所以敬他；又怕人说瞎话，所以问你。你这些话向我说，我不懂是什么意思。”宝蟾笑道：“奶奶别多心。我是跟奶奶的，还有两个心么？但是事情要密些，倘或声张起来，不是顽的。”

Bao Toad said, "It's like a stupid person." Jin Gui listened and laughed, "How do you talk about them?" Bao Toad also laughed: "He doesn't respect Grandma,so I will blame him!" Jin Gui said, "How did he disrespect me?" You have to talk about it. Bao Toad said, "Grandma gave him good things to eat, but he didn't eat them, isn't this a disgrace to Grandma's goodwill?" He said, but he smiled at Jin Gui. Jin Gui said, "Don't think about it! I sent him things, and I worked tirelessly for the affairs of the great master, so I respected him; and I was afraid that people would talk nonsense, so I asked you. You said these words to me, I don't understand what you mean. Bao Toad smiled and said, "Grandma don't worry too much." I'm the ally with Grandma, Would I ever betray you? But things should be more secret, and if they are known by others, it will be hard to deal with. ”

Precious Toad said, "It's like a stupid person." Golden Osmanthus listened and laughed, "How do you talk about them?" Precious Toad also laughed: "He doesn't respect Grandma,so I will blame him!"

金桂也觉得脸飞红了，因说道：“你这个丫头，就不是个好货！想来你心里看上了，却拿我作筏子，是不是呢？”宝蟾道：“只是奶奶那么想罢咧，我倒是替奶奶难受。奶奶要真瞧二爷好，我倒有个主意。奶奶想，‘那个耗子不偷油’呢？他也不过怕事情不密，大家闹出乱子来不好看。依我想：奶奶且别性急，时常在他身上不周不备的去处，张罗张罗。他是个小叔子，又没娶媳妇儿，奶奶就多尽点心儿，和他贴个好儿，别人也说不出什么来。过几天，他感奶奶的情，他自然要谢候奶奶。那时奶奶再备点东西儿在咱们屋里，我帮着奶奶灌醉了他，怕跑了他？

Golden Osmanthu also felt his face quickly red, so said: "You girl, is not good! I think you have a crush on him in your heart, but you are using me as a raft, aren't you?" Precious Toad said: "It's just that grandmother thinks so much, but I feel bad for you. I have an idea for you if you really think the second master is good. Grandma thought, 'every rat steal oil' He is also afraid that the things didn’t do well and make a fool. I think: you are not be impatient, and help him deal with things. He is a brother-in-law, and not married. If you do more and get won well with him , others can not say anything. In a few days, he would appreciate you. At that time, You prepared some things in our house, I helped Grandma to get him drunk, so he won’t leave.

Goldish Osmanthus also blushed, saying "You are really a wicked girl to take advantage of me like that, aren’t you? Oh you must like him!" Precious Toad said, "Well that’s only your opinion, Mistress and I feel so sorry for you. If you really fancy him, I can help you with it——as there’s no cat in the world which doesn’t eat fish, there’s no man in the world that never cheats. He is merely afraid that he would have his reputation ruined once the affair is known. I’ll say that you’d better be patient, and help him deal with the things which he neglected. I’m sure being nice to an unmarried brother-in-law won’t incur much gossips. Day after day he would be bound to pay a visit and thank you for your kindness. When that day comes, you can prepare a little something in your room so that I may help you to get him drunk and he may not leave then.--[[User:Xiao Dongqing|Xiao Dongqing]] ([[User talk:Xiao Dongqing|talk]]) 01:51, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

他要不应，咱们索性闹起来，就说他调戏奶奶。他害怕，他自然得顺着咱们的手儿。他再不应，他也不是人，咱们也不至白丢了脸面。奶奶想怎么样？”金桂听了这话，两颧早已红晕了，笑骂道：“小蹄子，你倒偷过多少汉子的是的，怪不得大爷在家时，离不开你。”宝蟾把嘴一撇，笑说道：“罢哟！人家倒替奶奶拉纤，奶奶倒往我们说这个话咧。”从此，金桂一心笼络薛蝌，倒无心混闹了，家中也少觉安静。当日宝蟾自去取了酒壶，仍是稳稳重重，一脸的正气。薛蝌偷眼看了，反倒后悔，疑心“或者是自己错想了他们，也未可知。

If he still rejects, we can make a big deal out of it blaming him for trying to hook you up. So long as he’s afraid, he is bound to obey. If he still refuses, then we still won’t lose our faces for nothing with his reputation ruined anyway. What do you say, Mistress?" Goldish Osmanthus flushed at her maids’ words, teasing "Sounds like you slut are very familiar with the affair things! No wonder my husband can’t live without you while at home." Precious Toad pouted as she joshed, "Never mind then. It seems someone just doesn’t know who’s good to her." Since then, Goldish Osmanthus stopped making a scene at home and shifted her focus to fawning on Tadpole Marshgrass. Precious Toad went to pick up the wine pot the other day, solemn and just. Taking a glimpse of her manners, Tadpole Marshgrass regretted his behavior and even thought that he himself might have misunderstood them.

果然如此，倒辜负了他这一番美意，保不住日后倒要和自己也闹起来，岂非自惹的呢？”过了两天，甚觉安静。薛蝌遇见宝蟾，宝蟾便低头走了，连眼皮儿也不抬；遇见金桂，金桂却一盆火儿的赶着。薛蝌见这般光景，反倒过意不去。这且不表。且说宝钗母女觉得金桂几天安静，待人忽亲热起来，一家子都为罕事。薛姨妈十分欢喜，想到：“必是薛蟠娶这媳妇时冲犯了什么，才败坏了这几年。目今闹出这样事来，亏得家里有钱，贾府出力，方才有了指望。媳妇儿忽然安静起来，或者是蟠儿转过运气来了，也未可知。”于是自己心里倒以为希有之奇。

"If so, that was a poor return for their kindness, and I've only myself to blame if they turn against me in future."A couple of days went by and all was quiet.Whenever he saw Precious Toad, she lowered her head and walked away without so much as a glance in his direction. Goldish Osmanthusi, on the other hand, pursued him with an eagerness.This made the young man feel rather ashamed of himself.But enough of this.Precious Hairpin Marshgrass and her mother, for their part, were most astonished by Goldish Osmanthusi's new sedateness and sudden cordiality to others.Aunt Marshgrass thought happily, “When Dragon Marshgrass married her, they must have transgressed somehow, which brought on all the trouble we've had these years.Now he's in a bad way but luckily we have money and, with the Merchant family helping, there's still some hope.His wife's sudden change for the better may mean that his luck will change too."It was in fact not far short of a miracle.

这日饭后，扶了同贵过来，到金桂房里瞧瞧。走到院中，只听一个男人和金桂说话。同贵知机，便说道：“大奶奶，老太太过来了。”说着，已到门口，只见一个人影儿在房门后一躲。薛姨妈一吓，倒退了出来。金桂道：“太太请里头坐。没有外人。他就是我的过继兄弟，本住在屯里，不惯见人。因没有见过太太，今儿才来，还没去请太太的安。”薛姨妈道：“既是舅爷，不妨见见。”金桂叫兄弟出来见了薛姨妈，作了一个揖，问了好。薛姨妈也问了好，坐下叙起话来。薛姨妈道：“舅爷上京几时了？”那夏三道：“前月我妈没有人管家，把我过继来的。前日才进京，今日来瞧姐姐。”

One day after lunch, leaning on Maid Wealth’s arm, she went to call on Goldish Osmanthus. When they entered the courtyard they heard her talking with a man. Maid Wealth was smart enough to call out, “Madam, here’s the old lady to see you!”By now they had reached the door. The sight of a figure flitting behind it made Aunt Marshgrass step back in alarm. “Please come in, madam!” called Goldish Osmanthus. “This is no stranger here but my stepbrother. He’s a villager, unused to company. As he has never called on you yet, he came today meaning to pay his respects.”“If it’s your brother,” said Aunt Marshgrass, “ask him to join us.”Goldish Osmanthus told the young man, whose name was Summer Three, to come out to meet her mother-in-law, and he raised clasped hands to greet her. She returned his greetings and they sat down to talk.“How long have you been in the capital?” asked Aunt Marshgrass.“My stepmother adopted me a couple of months ago, as she had no man in the house to see to things. I only came to the capital the day before yesterday; so I called on my sister today.”

薛姨妈看那人不尴尬，于是略坐坐儿，便起身道：“舅爷坐着罢。”回头向金桂道：“舅爷头上末下的来，留在咱们这里吃了饭再去罢。”金桂答应着，薛姨妈自去了。金桂见婆婆去了，便向夏三道：“你坐着。今日可是过了明路的了，省得我们二爷查考你。我今日还叫你买些东西，只别叫众人看见。”夏三道：“这个交给我就完了。你要什么，只要有钱，我就买得来。”金桂道：“且别说嘴，你买上了当，我可不收。”说着，二人又笑了一回，然后金桂陪夏三吃了晚饭，又告诉他买的东西，又嘱咐一回，夏三自去。从此夏三往来不绝。虽有个年老的门上人，知是舅爷，也不常回，从此生出无限风波。

As Aunt Marshgrass saw he looked rather embarrassed, after sitting there for a while she got up. “Just stay longer,” she said, then turned to tell Goldish Osmanthus, “because this is your brother’s first visit here, you must invite him for a meal.”Goldish Osmanthus assented to this and Aunt Marshgrass left. As soon as she had gone Goldish Osmanthus told Summer Three, “Sit down. Now we’re above-board, so Master Ke won’t have to pry into our affairs. I want you to buy something for me today, but don’t let anyone see it.”“Just leave it to me. If you have the money, I can get whatever you want.”“Don’t boast! If you get overcharged I’m not having it.”When they had exchanged some more banter, Goldish Osmanthus kept Summer Three for dinner, then gave him her commission and some instructions, then he left. Subsequently, Summer Three was a frequent visitor. And the old gatekeeper, having heard that this was Goldish Osmanthus’s brother, usually neglected to report his arrival. This led to endless trouble later.

Aunt Xue could see that he was rather an uncouth sort of fellow, and did not like to stay long. #2§‘I must be going,' she said. “Don't get up.” Then turning to Jin-gui: “As this is your brother's first visit, please invite him to stay for dinner.”Goldish Osmanthus assented to this and Aunt Marshgrass left.

这是后话不表。一日，薛蟠有信寄回，薛姨妈打开叫宝钗看时，上写：男在县里也不受苦，母亲放心。但昨日县里书办说，府里已经准详，想是我们的情到了。岂知府里详上去，道里反驳下来。亏得县里主文相公好，即刻做了回文顶上去了，那道里却把知县申饬。现在道里要亲提，若一上去，又要吃苦。必是道里没有托到。母亲见字，快快托人求道爷去。还叫兄弟快来，不然，就要解道。银子短不得。火速，火速！薛姨妈听了，又哭了一场，自不必说。薛蝌一面劝慰，一面说道：“事不宜迟。”
But we anticipate.One day a letter arrived from Xue Pan.Aunt Xue opened it and sent for Bao-chai to read it to her.This is what it said: ‘Dear Mother, I am being reasonably treated here in prison, so please set your mind at rest.I had some bad news yesterday however, from the clerk of the court. My sentence was approved at the prefectural level - I presume the family had been in touch with the prefect.But when the case came up before the circuit court, the Taotai rejected the judgement.The secretary here at the yamen has been very helpful and has sent an immediate petition in defence of the original judgement. But the Taotai has issued an official statement reprimanding the local mandarin for malpractice. He wants me to appear before the circuit court.If I do, I could be in trouble again.We can't have approached the Taotai yet.Please send someone to do this as soon as my letter reaches you.And send Cousin Ke here at once. Any delay may result in my being sent under escort to the circuit court.On no account stint the money! Extremely urgent!”This sent Aunt Xue into floods of tears.Bao-chai and Xue Ke did their best to calm her down, while at the same time impressing upon her the need to act swiftly.

薛姨妈没法，只得叫薛蝌到县照料，命人即便收拾行李，兑了银子，家人李祥本在那里照应的，薛蝌又同了一个当中伙计，连夜起程。那时手忙脚乱，虽有下人办理，宝钗又恐他们思想不到，亲来帮着，直闹至四更才歇。到底富家女子娇养惯的，心上又急，又苦劳了一会，晚上就发烧，到了明日，汤水都吃不下。莺儿去回了薛姨妈。薛姨妈急来看时，只见宝钗满面通红，身如燔灼，话都不说。薛姨妈慌了手脚，便哭得死去活来。宝琴扶着劝薛姨妈。秋菱也泪如泉涌，只管叫着。宝钗不能说话，手也不能摇动，眼干鼻塞。叫人请医调治，渐渐苏醒回来。
Aunt Xue had no choice, so she had to ask Xue Tao to take care of her in the county. She ordered her to pack her luggage and exchange the money. The family member, Li Xiangben, took care of her there. At that time, I was in a hurry. Although there were servants to handle it, Baochai was afraid that they would not be able to think. After all, a rich woman is spoiled, she is anxious, and after working hard for a while, she has a fever at night, and by tomorrow, she will not be able to eat the soup. Ying'er went back to Aunt Xue. When Aunt Xue was in a hurry to see her, she saw Baochai's face was flushed and her body was burning, but she didn't say a word. Aunt Xue panicked and cried to their death. Barquin helped Aunt Xue to persuade her. Qiu Ling also burst into tears, just screaming. Baochai can't speak, can't move his hands, his eyes are dry and his nose is stuffy. Called for medical treatment, and gradually recovered.

薛姨妈等大家略略放心。早惊动荣宁两府的人，先是凤姐打发人送十香返魂丹来，随后王夫人又送至宝丹来，贾母邢王二夫人以及尤氏等都打发丫头来问候，却都不叫宝玉知道。一连治了七八天，终不见效。还是他自己想起“冷香丸”，吃了三丸，才得病好。后来宝玉也知道了，因病好了，没有瞧去。那时薛蝌又有信回来。薛姨妈看了，怕宝钗耽忧，也不叫他知道，自己来求王夫人，并述了一会子宝钗的病。薛姨妈去后，王夫人又求贾政。贾政道：“此事上头可托，底下难托，必须打点才好。”王夫人又提起宝钗的事来，因说道：“这孩子也苦了。

Aunt Marshgrass and others were a little relieved. But it had already known to both Rong and Ning Houses, firstly Splendid Phoenix dispatched a person to send Ten Incense Strigoi Potion, then Lady King sent Treasure Elixir, and Grandma Merchant, Lady City and Lady King as well as madame You all sent girls to have a greeting without letting Precious Jade know. It lasted seven or eight days, but it didn't work. It was himself that thought of "Cold Fragrant Pills", and ate three pills of it and recovered from the illness. Later on, Precious Jade heard about this, but because she was well, he did not go to visit her. That time saw a letter from Tadpole Marshgrass. Aunt Marshgrass did not let Precious Hairpin know for the sake of worrying about him, so she herself came to beg Lady King for help and told her about her daughter’s illness. After Aunt Marshgrass had gone, Lady King asked for Politics Merchant’s help. He said: "We can trust it to the high class but do not count on the low status. And it is necessary to make an arrangement." Lady King brought up the story of Precious Jade again, and said, "The child is suffering too much.”

By the time, Precious Jade heard about her illness, but he did not go to visit her because she was already better. A letter from Tadpole Marshgrass, which Aunt Marshgrass did not let Precious Hairpin know for fear of upsetting her. She read it herself and came to beg Lady King for help, at the same time telling her about her daughter’s condition. After Aunt Marshgrass had gone, Lady King asked for Politics Merchant’s help. He said: “A word is usually sufficient for the higher-ranking officials; but these provincials clearly need a more tangible incentive. We shall give them more money to deal with this thing.” Then Lady King talked about Precious Jade again, and said, “The poor girl is suffering too much.”--[[User:Zhang Guohao|Zhang Guohao]] ([[User talk:Zhang Guohao|talk]]) 13:12, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

既是我家的人了，也该早些娶了过来才是，别叫他遭塌坏了身子。”贾政道：“我也是这么想。但是他家乱忙，况且如今到了冬底，已经年近岁逼，不无各自要料理些家务。今冬且放了定，明春再过礼。过了老太太的生日，就定日子娶。你把这番话先告诉薛姨太太。”王夫人答应了。到了明日，王夫人将贾政的话向薛姨妈述了，薛姨妈想着也是。到了饭后，王夫人陪着来到贾母房中，大家让了坐。贾母道：“姨太太才过来？”薛姨妈道：“还是昨儿过来的，因为晚了，没得过来给老太太请安。”王夫人便把贾政昨夜所说的话向贾母述了一遍，贾母甚喜。说着，宝玉进来了。

Lady King said: “She has been already one member of our family, and the sooner Precious Jade and she get married, the better the thing is. It is ruining her health now.” Master Merchant then said: “I agree with you. But her family are very disordered now, and it is approaching the year. We will be busy doing our affairs. I suppose that during this winter we can manage the betrothal and change presents early the next year. Their wedding ceremony can be held after Grandma Merchant’s birthday. You should deliver the message to your sister.” Lady King agreed with him. The next day she told Aunt Marshgrass, who also thought this proposal was good. After lunch, the two of them went to see Grandma Merchant. After the usual courtesies had been exchanged, Grandma Merchant asked Aunt Marshgrass, “Have you just come over?” “I was here yesterday,” replied Aunt Marshgrass, “because it was too late yesterday, so I was not able to come and greet you.” Lady King told what Master Merchant had said yesterday to Grandma Merchant, making her very happy. While they are talking, Precious Jade entered into the room.

Continued Lady King. “As she’s betrothed to our family, I think we should fix up the wedding soon, before she ruins her health.” “I agree,” he replied. “But her family’s in too much of a commotion now; and as winter is nearly over, with the New Year in the offing, we have a good many affairs to attend to ourselves. Suppose we send the betrothal gifts this winter and the wedding gifts next spring — fix the date for the wedding after the old lady’s birthday. You can tell Aunt Marshgrass this first.” The next day, Lady Wang let her sister know this proposal, and Aunt Marshgrass agreed to it. After lunch, the two of them called on the Lady Merchant. When they had taken seats she asked Aunt Marshgrass: “Have you just come over?” “Actually I came yesterday,” replied Aunt Marshgrass. “But it was too late then to pay my respects.” Then Lady King repeated her husband’s proposal, and the old lady thoroughly approved. Precious Jade happened to come in just then.--[[User:Zhang Jiaoling|Zhang Jiaoling]] ([[User talk:Zhang Jiaoling|talk]]) 07:23, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

贾母便问道：“吃了饭了没有？”宝玉道：“才打学房里回来，吃了，要往学房里去，先见见老太太。又听见说姨妈来了，过来给姨妈请请安。”因问：“宝姐姐可大好了？”薛姨妈笑道：“好了。”原来方才大家正说着，见宝玉进来，都煞住了。宝玉坐了坐，见薛姨妈情形不似从前亲热，“虽是此刻没有心情，也不犯大家都不言语。”满腹猜疑，自往学中去了。晚间回来，都见过了，便往潇湘馆来。掀帘进去，紫鹃接着。见里间屋内无人。宝玉道：“姑娘那里去了？”紫鹃道：“上屋里去了。知道薛姨妈过来，姑娘请安去了。二爷没有到上屋里去么？”
Grandmother Merchant asked him whether he had had his lunch. “I had it as soon as I got back just now,” Precious Jade said. “As I’m off to school again now, I wanted to call on you first. Besides, hearing that aunty was here, I wanted to pay my respects to her as well.” He asked Aunt Marshgrass, “Is Cousin Precious Hairpin better?” “Yes, she is,” was the answer. As their conversation had stopped at his arrival, and as Aunt Marshgrass seemed less cordial to him than before, Precious Jade felt mystified. “Even if she’s upset, why should they all keep so quiet?” he asked himself as he went back to school. On his return that evening, having paid his respects to his elders, he went straight to Bamboo Lodge. But when he raised the portière and went in there was only Nightingale there — the inner room was empty. “Where is your mistress?” he asked. “With the old lady,” said Nightingale. “When she heard that Madam Marshgrass had called, she went over to pay her respects. Didn’t you go too, Master Precious Jade?”

Suppose you cold shoulder her but she befriends you? What would you do in all those different cases?" Precious Jade Merchant thought for a while, then burst out laughing.

Precious Jade was stunned for a while and then laughed, "Though there are countless rivers, I only take a gourd ladle of water to drink. That would be enough."

Precious Jade, as soon as he had left Bamboo Lodge, asked Autumn Vein, "What does my father want me for?""
"He doesn't want you," she chuckled. "Sister Aroma sent me to fetch you, and for fear you wouldn't come I made that up."

"With Miss Lin. We got talking about Cousin Precious Hairpin; that's what kept me there so long."
"What were you discussing?" He told her then about his catechism.
"You two have no sense," scolded Aroma. "It's all right to chat about family affairs or discuss certain lines of poetry; but why go in for Buddhist cant? It's not as if you were a monk."

宝玉道：“你不知道，我们有我们的禅机，别人是插不下嘴去的。”袭人笑道：“你们参禅参翻了，又叫我们跟着打闷葫芦了。”宝玉道：“头里我也年纪小，他也孩子气，所以我说了不留神的话，他就恼了。如今我也留神，他也没有恼的了。只是他近来不常过来，我又念书，偶然到一处，好像生疏了是的。”袭人道：“原该这么着才是。都长了几岁年纪了，怎么好意思还像小孩子时候的样子。”宝玉点头道：“我也知道。如今且不用说那个。我问你，老太太那里打发人来说什么来着没有？”袭人道：“没有说什么。”
"You don't understand. We have our own esoteric talk which no oneelse can join in."
"If your esoteric repartee leads to squabbles, we shall have to try toguess your riddles too," she answered teasingly.
"In the past I was young and she was childish too, so if I spoke tact-lessly she used to flare up. Now that I'm more careful she never takes offence. But recently she's stopped coming here so often, and I have to go to school. That's why, when we do happen to meet, we feel rather like strangers."
"That's how it should be," approved Aroma. "Now that you're both several years older, how can you go on behaving as if you were children?" He nodded. "I know. Never mind about that now. Tell me: Has the old lady sent any message for me?"
"No, none."

宝玉道：“必是老太太忘了。明儿不是十一月初一日么？年年老太太那里必是个老规矩，要办‘消寒会’，齐打伙儿坐下，喝酒说笑。我今日已经在学房里告了假了。这会子没有信儿，明儿可是去不去呢？若去了呢，白白的告了假；若不去，老爷知道了，又说我偷懒。”袭人道：“据我说，你竟是去的是。才念的好些儿了，又想歇着。依我说也该上紧些才好。昨儿听见太太说，兰哥儿念书真好，他打学房里回来，还各自念书作文章，天天晚上弄到四更多天才睡。你比他大多了，又是叔叔，倘或赶不上他，又叫老太太生气，倒不如明儿早起去罢。”
"She must have forgotten. Tomorrow's the first of the eleventh month isn't it? It used to be her rule every year to hold a cold-dispelling party that day,getting everybody together to drink and have fun. Today I asked for leave from school. As no message has come shall I go tomorrow or not? If I do,I'll have asked for leave all for nothing. If I don't and my father knows,he'll call me an idler." "I think you'd better go," she said."You're just beginning to study seriously,yet here you are wanting to rest. My advice to you is to work harder. Yesterday I heard your mother praise Master Cymbidium for really concentrating on his books. Every evening after he comes back from school,he reads and writes essays on his own,not sleeping till nearly dawn. You're much older than he is,and his uncle too. If you lag behind him the old lady will be angry. So you'd better go to school tomorrow morning.

麝月道：“二爷上学去了，你又该咕嘟着嘴想着，巴不得二爷早一刻儿回来，就有说有笑的了。这会儿又假撇清，何苦呢！我都看见了。”袭人正要骂他，只见老太太那里打发人来，说道：“老太太说了，叫二爷明儿不用上学去呢。明儿请了姨太太来给他解闷，只怕姑娘们都来家里的。史姑娘、邢姑娘、李姑娘们都请了，明儿来赴什么‘消寒会’呢。”宝玉没有听完，便喜欢道：“可不是？老太太最高兴的，明日不上学，是过了明路的了。”袭人也便不言语了。那丫头回去。宝玉认真念了几天书，巴不得顽这一天，又听见薛姨妈过来，想着宝姐姐自然也来。

心里喜欢，便说：“快睡罢，明日早些起来。”于是一夜无话。到了次日，果然一早到老太太那里请了安，又到贾政王夫人那里请了安，回明了老太太今儿不叫上学。贾政也没言语，便慢慢退出来。走了几步，便一溜烟跑到贾母房中。见众人都没来，只有凤姐那边的奶妈子，带了巧姐儿，跟着几个小丫头，过来给老太太请了安，说：“我妈妈先叫我来请安，陪着老太太说说话儿。妈妈回来就来。”贾母笑着道：“好孩子，我一早就起来了。等他们总不来，只有你二叔叔来了。”那奶妈子便说：“姑娘，给你二叔叔请安。”宝玉也问了一声“妞妞好？”

‘Let’s have an early night,’ he said. ‘I want to be up first thing tomorrow.’ The night passed uneventfully, and early next morning, true to his resolution, Precious Jade went to pay his respects to Grandma Merchant and then to his father and mother, to whom he reported that ‘Grannie had given him the day off school’. Jia Zheng raised no objection and Precious Jade withdrew from his presence at a snail’s pace, waiting till he was a few yards from the study before breaking into a run and racing to Grandma Merchant’s apartment. The other guests had not yet arrived, but he saw a nurse and a few younger maids enter the room with Splendid Phoenix’s little girl Sister Ingenious, who walked up to her great-grandmother, paid her respects and said: ‘Mama told me to come and say my good-morning and sit with you first, Great-grannie. She says she’ll be here by and by.’ The old lady laughed. ‘Bless you child! Here I’ve been sitting since cockcrow, and none of my guests has turned up, except your Uncle Bao.’ Sister Ingenious’s nurse did some discreet prompting: ‘Say good morning to your uncle, Miss.’ Sister Ingenious did so, and Precious Jade returned the greeting.

巧姐儿道：“我昨夜听见我妈妈说，要请二叔叔去说话。”宝玉道：“说什么呢？”巧姐儿道：“我妈妈说，跟着李妈认了几年字，不知道我认得不认得。我说：‘都认得。我认给妈妈瞧。’妈妈说我瞎认，不信，说我一天尽子顽，那里认得！我瞧着那些字也不要紧，就是那《女孝经》也是容易念的。妈妈说我哄他，要请二叔叔得空儿的时候给我理理。”贾母听了，笑道：“好孩子，你妈妈是不认得字的，所以说你哄他。明儿叫你二叔叔理给他瞧瞧，他就信了。”宝玉道：“你认了多少字了？”巧姐儿道：“认了三千多字，念了一本《女孝经》，半个月头里又上了《列女传》。”

‘My Mama wants to see you, Uncle Bao,’ said Qiao-jie：’She said so yesterday.’ Bai-yu asked: ‘For what?’ ‘She says she wants to find out if I've learnt my characters properly after all my lessons with Nannie Li, and offered to read them out for her.#1 But she thought I was guessing and didn't believe me. #2 She said I couldn't have learnt them because all I do all day long is play. But I don't think learning characters is hard. I can even read my Girl's Classic of Filial Piety - it's ever so easy. Mama thinks I'm making it up, so she wants you to go over it with me when you've got the time.” Grandmother Jia laughed. “Bless you darling! Your mother can't read a word, that's why she couldn't tell if you were cheating her or not. Tomorrow your uncle Bao will go over it with you, and she can listen in. Then she'll have to believe you.” “How many characters do you know by now?” asked Bao-yu. “Over three thousand,' replied Qiao-jie. “I've finished the Girl's Classic, and a fortnight ago I started on Lives of Noble Women Present and Past.”

Sister Qiao said, "I heard my mother say last night that I would ask my second uncle to talk." Baoyu said, "what are you talking about?" Sister Qiao said, "my mother said that after following Li Ma for several years, I don't know if I can recognize the words. I said, 'I can recognize them all. I'll show them to my mother.' my mother said that I can recognize them blindly. I don't believe it. She said that I can recognize them there all day. It doesn't matter if I look at those words. Even the book of filial piety is easy to read. My mother said that I coaxed him and asked my second uncle to manage it for me when he had time." Jia's mother smiled and said, "good boy, your mother doesn't know words, so you coax him. Ask your second uncle to show him tomorrow, and he'll believe it." Baoyu said, "how many words have you recognized?" Sister Qiao said, "I recognized more than 3000 words, read a Book of female filial piety, and appeared in the biography of women in half a month."

宝玉道：“你念了懂得吗？你要不懂，我倒是讲讲这个你听罢。”贾母道：“做叔叔的也该讲究给侄女儿听听。”宝玉道：“那文王后妃是不必说了。想来是知道的。那姜后脱簪待罪，齐国的无盐虽丑，能安邦定国，是后妃里头的贤能的。若说有才的，是曹大姑、班婕妤、蔡文姬、谢道韫诸人。孟光的荆钗裙布，鲍宣妻的提瓮出汲，陶侃母的截发留宾，还有画荻教子的，这是不厌贫的。那苦的里头，有乐昌公主破镜重圆，苏蕙的回文感主。那孝的是更多了，木兰代父从军，曹娥投水寻父的尸首等类也多，我也说不得许多。那个曹氏的引刀割鼻，是魏国的故事。

to ask.

你道宝玉呆的是什么？只因柳五儿要进怡红院，头一次是他病了，不能进来；第二次王夫人撵了晴雯，大凡有些姿色的，都不敢挑；后来又在吴贵家看晴雯去，五儿跟着他妈给晴雯送东西去，见了一面，更觉娇娜妩媚。今日亏得凤姐想着，叫他补入小红的窝儿，竟是喜出望外了，所以呆呆的想他。贾母等着那些人，见这时候还不来，又叫丫头去请。回来李纨同着他妹子、探春、惜春、史湘云、黛玉都来了。大家请了贾母的安，众人厮见。独有薛姨妈未到，贾母又叫请去。果然姨妈带着宝琴过来。宝玉请了安，问了好，只不见宝钗邢岫烟二人。

What was preoccupying Bao-yu? The answer lies in Qiao-jie’s mention of Fivey. This attractive girl had been originally designated for Green Delights, but one obstacle after another had so far prevented her from entering service there. First it had been illness; then they had been wary of choosing a good-looking maid for Bao-yu in the puritanical phase that followed on Lady Wang’s expulsion of Skybright. A further opportunity of seeing her had presented itself when she and her mother had arrived with gifts during his secret visit to Skybright at her cousin’s house - and his earlier favourable impression of her had been confirmed. She really was extremely pretty. What marvellous luck that Xi-feng should have remembered her now, and was arranging for her to take Crimson’s place!While Bao-yu was day-dreaming, Grandmother Jia was becoming more and more impatient at the lateness of her guests and sent word to hurry them along. A few minutes later the first contingent arrived: Li Wan and her two cousins Wen and Qi, Tan-chun, Xi-chun, Shi Xiang-yun and Lin Dai-yu. They all paid their respects to Grandmother Jia and greeted one another. Aunt Xue had still not come, and Grandmother Jia sent for her. Finally she arrived, accompanied by Bao-qin. Bao-yu paid his respects, and said hello to Bao-qin, wondering why it was that neither Bao-chai nor Xing Xiu-yan had come.

When Sister Phoenix heard this, as it would be remiss for her to lag behind Their Ladyships she sent Patience to excuse her, saying that she had a temperature but would come a little later. “If she is not well, she needn't come,” Grandma Merchant said. “It's time for our meal now.” Maids moved back the brazier and set out two tables in front of Grandma Merchant's couch. After this, the party sat down in due order. After dinner, they chatted around the fire, but there is no need to record the conversation.

且说凤姐因何不来？头里为着倒比邢王二夫人迟了不好意思，后来旺儿家的来回说：“迎姑娘那里打发人来请奶奶安，还说并没有到上头，只到奶奶这里来。”凤姐听了纳闷，不知又是什么事，便叫那人进来，问：“姑娘在家好？”那人道：“有什么好的！奴才并不是姑娘打发来的，实在是司棋的母亲央我来求奶奶的。”凤姐道：“司棋已经出去了，为什么来求我？”那人道：“自从司棋出去，终日啼哭。忽然那一日，他表兄来了。他母亲见了，恨得什么是的，说他害了司棋，一把拉住要打。那小子不敢言语。

Now what had kept Sister Phoenix away? In the beginning it was embarrassment at going later than Lady City and Lady King. And then Vigor's wife had arrived. “Miss Spring Pleasure has sent someone with her regards,” she announced. “And the woman says she's not called on Their Ladyships but come straight here.” Not knowing what to make of this, Sister Phoenix called the messenger in. “Is your mistress well?” she asked. “No, it wasn't Miss Spring Pleasure who sent me,” was the answer. “The fact is, Controlling Board's mother has begged me to come to ask you a favour, madam.”“Controlling Board has already been dismissed, so what can I do to help?” “After Controlling Board left here she kept weeping all day long. Then, the other day, that cousin of hers turned up. At sight of him, her mother was furious-she accused him of ruining her daughter's life and grabbed hold of him to beat him. Not a word did the young fellow say in self-defence.

谁知司棋听见了，急忙出来，老着脸，和他母亲道：‘我是为他出来的，我也恨他没良心。如今他来了，妈要打他，不如勒死了我。’他母亲骂他：‘不害臊的东西！你心里要怎么样？’司棋说道：‘一个女人配一个男人。我一时失脚，上了他的当，我就是他的人了，决不肯再失身给别人的。我恨他为什么这样胆小！‘一身作事一身当’，为什么要逃？就是他一辈子不来了，我也一辈子不嫁人的。妈要给我配人，我原拼着一死的。今儿他来了，妈问他怎么样。若是他不改心，我在妈跟前磕了头，只当是我死了，他到那里，我跟到那里，就是讨饭吃也是愿意的。’

Siqi hearing this came running out, bold as brass.“‘It’s because of him that I was dismissed,’ she told her mother. ‘I hate him too for his heartlessness. If you want to beat him now that he’s come, you’d better strangle me first!“Her mother swore, ‘Shameless slut! What do you want to do?”’“Siqi said, ‘A woman can only marry once. I slipped up and let him take advantage of me, so now I belong to him, and I’ll never, never marry anyone else. But what makes me angry is his lack of guts. A man should be responsible for his actions. Why run away? If he’d never shown up, I’d have stayed single all my life. If you’d tried to marry me to someone else, ma, I should have killed myself. Now that he’s here, ask him what his intentions are. If he hasn’t had a change of heart, I’ll kowtow farewell to you, ma, and you can count me as dead, for wherever he goes I’ll go too, content even if we have to beg for food.

他妈气得了不得，便哭着骂着说：‘你是我的女儿，我偏不给他，你敢怎么着？’那知道那司棋这东西糊涂，便一头撞在墙上，把脑袋撞破，鲜血直流，竟死了。他妈哭着，救不过来，便要叫那小子偿命。他表兄也奇：‘你们不用着急。我在外头原发了财，因想着他才回来的，心也算是真了。你们若不信，只管瞧。’说着，打怀里掏出一匣子金珠首饰来。他妈妈看见了，便心软了，说：‘你既有心，为什么总不言语？’他外甥道：‘大凡女人都是水性杨花，我若说有钱，他便是贪图银钱了。如今，他只为人就是难得的。我把金珠给你们，我去买棺盛殓他。’

“Her mother wept with rage and swore, ‘You’re my daughter. I won’t let you marry him! How dare you defy me?’“Then the silly girl smashed her head against the wall so that her brains spilled out, and she died in a pool of blood. Her mother wept, but as it was too late to save her she wanted her nephew to pay with his own life.“That nephew of hers was an odd fellow too. He said, ‘Don’t worry. I’ve made some money outside, and I came back because of her — I was true to her. If you don’t believe me, look here. ‘ He took from his pocket a case of jewelry.“Her mother relented then and asked, ‘If that was what you wanted, why didn’t you say so?’“He told her, ‘Most women are fickle. If I’d said I had money, it might have tempted her. Now I can see she was truly one in a thousand. I’ll leave you these jewels and go and buy a coffin for her.

那司棋的母亲接了东西，也不顾女孩儿了，便由着外甥去。那里知道他外甥叫人抬了两口棺材来。司棋的母亲看见，咤异说：‘怎么棺材要两口？’他外甥笑道：‘一口装不下，得两口才好。’司棋的母亲见他外甥又不哭，只当是他心疼的傻了。岂知他忙着把司棋收拾了，也不啼哭，眼错不见，把带的小刀子往脖子里一抹，也就抹死了。司棋的母亲懊悔起来，倒哭得了不得。如今坊上知道了，要报官。他急了，央我来求奶奶说个人情，他再过来给奶奶磕头。”凤姐听了，咤异道：“那有这样傻丫头，偏偏的就碰见这个傻小子！怪不得那一天翻出那些东西来，他心里没事人是的。

“Siqi’s mother took the jewels and let him go, not carrying on any more about her daughter. Who could have imagined, though, that he got people to carry back two coffins.
“‘What do you want two coffins for?’ she asked.
“He said with a smile, ‘One’s not enough. We need two.
“The fact that he wasn’t weeping made her think he was stupefied with grief. But after laying Siqi in one coffin — without so much as a whimper — before anyone could see what he was doing he whipped out a small knife and cut his own throat! Siqi’s mother sobbed bitterly then with remorse. And now the whole neighbourhood knows of this and they want to report it to the authorities. She’s frantic, that’s why she’s sent me to beg you to help. She’ll be coming later to kowtow her thanks.”
“What a silly girl!” exclaimed Xifeng in amazement. “And up against such a simpleton too it’s too bad! No wonder she took it so calmly when they found those things during the search that day.

敢只是这么个烈性孩子。论起来，我也没这么大工夫管他这些闲事，但只你才说的，叫人听着，怪可怜见儿的。也罢了，你回去告诉他，我和你二爷说，打发旺儿给他撕掳就是了。”凤姐打发那人去了，才过贾母这边来。不提。且说贾政这日正与詹光下大棋，通局的输赢也差不多，单为着一只角儿，死活未分，在那里打结。门上的小厮进来回道：“外面冯大爷要见老爷。”贾政道：“请进来。”小厮出去请了，冯紫英走进门来，贾政即忙迎着。冯紫英进来，在书房中坐下，见是下棋，便道：“只管下棋，我来观局。”詹光笑道：“晚生的棋是不堪睄的。”

when they found those things during the search that day. I'd no idea she was such a strong character! Actually I've no time to mind other people's business, but what you' ve told me really makes my heart bleed. All right then, go and tell Siqi's mother that I'll get my husband to send Lai Wang to straighten things out for her."Only when Xifeng had sent this woman away did she go over to the old lady's place.To return to Jia Zheng. He was playing draughts one day with Zhan Guang, and both still had about the same number of pieces; but in one corner the issue was not yet decided and each was trying to enclose thatsector.A gateman came in to announce, Mr. Feng is waiting outside to see you, Sir.'"Show him in," ordered Jia Zheng.The man withdrew to do so, and as Feng Ziying entered Jia Zheng rose to welcome him. Having taken a seat in the study, Feng saw that they had been playing draughts.Please go on with your game," he urged them. I'd like to watch." My game isn't worth watching," said Zhan Guang with a smile. "Don't be so modest," replied Feng. Please carry on."

冯紫英道：“好说，请下罢。”贾政道：“有什么事么？”冯紫英道：“没有什么话。老伯只管下棋，我也学几着儿。”贾政向詹光道：“冯大爷是我们相好的，既没事，我们索性下完了这一局再说话儿。冯大爷在旁边瞧着。”冯紫英道：“下采不下采？”詹光道：“下采的。”冯紫英道：“下采的是不好多嘴的。”贾政道：“多嘴也不妨，横竖他输了十来两银子，终久是不拿出来的。往后只好罚他做东便了。”詹光笑道：“这倒使得。”冯紫英道：“老伯和詹公对下么？”贾政笑道：“从前对下，他输了；如今让他两个子儿，他又输了。时常还要悔几着，不叫他悔，他就急了。”

“Don’t be so modest,” replied Feng. “Please carry on.”
“Have you come on business?” Jia Zheng wanted to know.
“Nothing of any importance. Please go on with your game, uncle, and I can learn by watching.”
Jia Zheng told Zhan, “Master Feng is a good friend of ours. As he’s in no hurry, let’s finish this game and then we can have a chat. You can watch from the side, Master Feng.”
“Are you playing for stakes?”
“Yes, we are,” said Zhan.
“In that case I mustn’t interfere.”
“It doesn’t matter if you do,” joked Jia Zheng. “He’s lost over ten taels already, but he never pays up. I shall have to make him stand us a meal some day instead.”
“That’s all right,” chuckled Zhan.
“Do you gentlemen both play from scratch?” asked Feng.
“We used to.” Jia Zheng smiled. “But he kept losing. Now I’m handi¬capped by giving him two pieces at the start, yet he still loses. From time to time he revokes too, and if I challenge him he gets worked up.--[[User:Hu Mengqi|Hu Mengqi]] ([[User talk:Hu Mengqi|talk]]) 15:05, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

詹光也笑道：“没有的事。”贾政道：“你试试瞧。”大家一面说笑，一面下完了，做起棋来，詹光还了棋头，输了七个子儿。冯紫英道：“这盘终吃亏在打结里头。老伯劫少，就便宜了。”贾政对冯紫英道：“有罪，有罪。咱们说话儿罢。”冯紫英道：“小侄与老伯久不见面。一来会会，二来因广西的同知进来引见，带了四种洋货，可以做得贡的。一件是围屏，有二十四扇槅子，都是紫檀雕刻的。中间虽说不是玉，却是绝好的硝子石，石上镂出山水、人物、楼台、花鸟等物。一扇上有五六十个人，都是宫妆的女子，名为‘汉宫春晓’。

“That’s not true!” protested Light Zhan laughingly.
“Just wait and see,” said Master Merchant.
They played as they chatted, and when the game was finished they counted their pieces. After deducting the one with which he had opened, Zhan had lost by seven pieces.
Feng remarked, “You lost out trying to enclose uncle’s pieces. And so, being less vulnerable, he got the upper hand.”
“Excuse us for ignoring you,” Master Merchant apologized. “Now we can talk.”
“I haven’t seen you for some time, uncle, so I called in the first place to pay my respects,” said Feng. “Another reason is that the vice-prefect of Guangxi has come to the capital with four novelties from the south or overseas, all fit to present to the court. One is a carved ebony screen with twenty-four leaves. They’re inlaid not with jade but with the finest marble carved with landscapes, figures, pavilions, flowers and birds. On each leaf are fifty to sixty girls in palace costume, so the screen is called ‘Spring Dawn in the Han Palace.’

人的眉、目、口、鼻以及出手、衣褶，刻得又清楚，又细腻。点缀布置，都是好的。我想尊府大观园中正厅上却可用得着。还有一个钟表，有三尺多高，也是一个小童儿拿着时辰牌，到了什么时候，他就报什么时辰；里头也有些人在那里打十番的。这是两件重笨的，却还没有拿来。现在我带在这里两件，却有些意思儿。”就在身边拿出一个锦匣子，见几重白绵裹着，揭开了绵子，第一层是一个玻璃盒子，里头金托子，大红绉绸托底，上放着一颗桂圆大的珠子，光华耀目。冯紫英道：“据说这就叫做‘母珠’。”因叫：“拿一个盘儿来。”

All the girls’ features, their hands and the draperies are most delicately carved. The embellishments and designs are excellent too. It seems to me just the thing for the main hall of your honourable Grand View Garden.
“Then there’s a clock more than three feet high in the form of a boy holding a time-piece, which announces each hour in turn, while inside some clock-work figures play musical chimes. As both these are heavy objects, I didn’t bring them. But the two things I have with me are quite intriguing too.”
With that he produced a brocade box swathed in white silk floss and, having removed some padding, showed them a glass case in which was a gold stand mounted on red crepe. On the stand lay a dazzling bright pearl, as large as a dried longan.
“This is called a mother pearl,” Feng told them, then asked for a plate.

詹光即忙端过一个黑漆茶盘，道：“使得么？”冯紫英道：“使得。”便又向怀里掏出一个白绢包儿，将包儿里的珠子都倒在盘子里散着，把那颗母珠搁在中间，将盘置于桌上。看见那些小珠子儿，滴溜滴溜滚到大珠身边来，一回儿把这颗大珠子抬高了，别处的小珠子一颗也不剩，都粘在大珠上。詹光道：“这也奇怪！”贾政道：“这是有的，所以叫做‘母珠’，原是珠之母。”那冯紫英又回头看着他跟来的小厮道：“那个匣子呢？”那小厮赶忙捧过一个花梨木匣子来。大家打开看时，原来匣内衬着虎纹锦，锦上叠着一束蓝纱。詹光道：“这是什么东西？”

Light Zhan at once passed him a black lacquer tea-tray.
“Will this do?”
“Yes, that’s fine.”
Feng took a silk pouch from his pocket and emptied all the pearls in it on to the tray, then placed the mother pearl in the middle and set the tray on the table. At once, all the small pearls rolled over and over until they were close to the big one, propping it up, all without exception nestling against the big pearl.
“Fantastic!” exclaimed Zhan.
“I’ve heard of this,” said Master Merchant. “This is how it came by its name as the mother of pearls.”
Now Feng turned to the page who had accompanied him.
“Where is that box?” he called.
The page at once brought over a rosewood box. When opened it disclosed, on a lining of silk, some folded blue gauze.
“What is this?” asked Zhan.

Feng said, "This is called 'Fish Tent'. When it was taken out of the box, it was folded less than five inches long and not half an inch thick, and Feng opened it layer by layer, hitting more than ten layers, and it could not be laid on the table.

我的意思是这样，不知老太太、老爷、太太们怎么样？若是外头老爷们要买只管买。”贾母与众人都说：“这话说的倒也是。”贾琏道：“还了他罢。原是老爷叫我送给老太太瞧，为的是宫里好进；谁说买来搁在家里？老太太还没开口，你便说了一大些丧气话！”说着，便把两件东西拿了出去，告诉贾政，只说：“老太太不要。”便与冯紫英道：“这两件东西，好可好，就只没银子。我替你留心，有要买的人我便送信给你去。”冯紫英只得收拾好，坐下说些闲话，没有兴头，就要起身。贾政道：“你在我这里吃了晚饭去罢。”冯紫英道：“罢了，来了就叨扰老伯吗！”

I mean, what about the old ladies and lords and ladies? If the gentlemen want it, they can buy it." "That is true," Grandma Merchant and the others said. Romance Merchant said, "Give him back. My master had told me to show it to the old lady for the sake of entering the palace. Who says buy it and put it at home? You say such sad things before the old lady has opened her mouth!" Then he took the two things out and told Master Merchant, saying, "The old lady doesn't want them." He said to Feng, "These two things are very good, but there is no silver. I'll keep an eye out for you and send you word if anyone wants to buy." Feng had to tidy up and sit down to gossip. When she was not excited, she got up. Master Merchant said, "You can have your supper at my place." Feng said, "That's all. You're bothering the old man!"

贾政道：“说那里的话！”正说着，人回：“大老爷来了。”贾赦早已进来。彼此相见，叙些寒温。不一时，摆上酒来，肴馔罗列，大家喝着酒。至四五巡后，说起洋货的话。冯紫英道：“这种货本是难消的。除非要像尊府这种人家，还可消得，其余就难了。”贾政道：“这也不见得。”贾赦道：“我们家里也比不得从前了，这回儿也不过是个空门面。”冯紫英又问：“东府珍大爷可好么？我前儿见他，说起家常话儿来，提到他令郎续娶的媳妇远不及头里那位秦氏奶奶了。如今后娶的到底是那一家的？我也没有问起。”
Jia Zheng said: "Say what you said there!" Just as he was talking, someone replied, "The eldest master is here." Jia She had already come in. See each other, talk a little bit cold. From time to time, wine is served, dishes are listed, and everyone drinks wine. After four or five patrols, talk about foreign goods. Feng Ziying said: "This kind of goods is difficult to sell. Unless you want someone like Zunfu, it can be sold, and the rest will be difficult." Jia Zhengdao: "That's not necessarily true." Jia She said: "We The family is not as good as it used to be, and this time it’s just an empty facade.” Feng Ziying asked again: “How is Uncle Dongfu Zhen?

贾政道：“我们这个侄孙媳妇儿也是这里大家，从前做过京畿道的胡老爷的女孩儿。”冯紫英道：“胡道长我是知道的。但是他家教上也不怎么样。也罢了，只要姑娘好就好。”贾琏道：“听得内阁里人说起，雨村又要升了。”贾政道：“这也好，不知准不准？”贾琏道：“大约有意思的了。”冯紫英道：“我今儿从吏部里来，也听见这样说。雨村老先生是贵本家不是？”贾政道：“是。”冯紫英道：“是有服的，还是无服的？”贾政道：“说也话长。他原籍是浙江湖州府人，流寓到苏州，甚不得意。有个甄士隐和他相好，时常周济他。

Master Merchant said: "Our grand-nephew and daughter-in-law are also here. She used to be the girl of Master Hu in Gyeonggi Province." Feng Dao: "I know about Dao-shang Hu. But his family education is not very good. That's all, as long as The girl is good." Romance Merchant said: "I heard from the cabinet that Rainvillage is going to be promoted again." Master Merchant said: "This is also good, not sure?" Romance Merchant said: "It's about interesting. Feng Dao: "I came from the Ministry of Officials today, and I heard this too. Is Mr. Amamura from your family?" Master Merchant said, "Yes." Feng Dao: "Is it with or without service? ?" Master Merchant said, "It's a long story. He was originally from Huzhou, Zhejiang, and lived in Suzhou. He was very unhappy. There was a Zhen Shiyin who was close to him and often helped him.

Master Merchant said， “Our grand-nephew's wife is also coming from a prominent family. Her father was Lord Hu, who used to take office in the capital.” Feng Ziying added, “I know Lord Hu. But his domestic discipline is not very decent. That's all. It will be fine as long as he educates his girl well.” Romance Merchant changed the topic, “I heard from the cabinet that Rain Village is going to be promoted again.” Master Merchant said, “Good news. Is it true?” Romance Merchant said, “There are some hints.” Feng Ziying wondered, “I also get this news from the Ministry of Official Personal Affairs today. Is he a relative of your family?” Master Merchant answered, “Yes.” Feng continued, “A close relative or not?” Master Merchant said, “It's a long story. He was born in Huzhou, Zhejiang, and stayed in Suzhou, where he led a poor life. The man Zhen Shiyin, with whom he got along well at that time, often helped him.

已后中了进士，得了榜下知县，便娶了甄家的丫头。如今的太太不是正配。岂知甄士隐弄到零落不堪，没有找处。雨村革了职以后，那时还与我家并未相识。只因舍妹丈林如海林公在扬州巡盐的时候，请他在家做西席，外甥女儿是他的学生。因他有起复的信，要进京来，恰好外甥女儿要上来探亲，林姑老爷便托他照应上来的。还有一封荐书托我吹嘘吹嘘。那时看他不错，大家常会。岂知雨村也奇：我家世袭起，从‘代’字辈下来，宁荣两宅，人口房舍，以及起居事宜，一概都明白。因此，遂觉得亲热了。”

四人道：“因老太太当作宝贝一样，他又生得白，老太太便叫作‘宝玉’。”贾母笑向李纨道：“偏也叫个‘宝玉’！”李纨等忙欠身笑道：“从古至今，同时隔代，重名的很多。”四人也笑道：“起了这小名儿之后，我们上下都疑惑，不知那位亲友家也倒是曾有一个的，只是这十来年没进京来，却记不得真了。”贾母笑道：“那就是我的孙子。人来！”众媳妇丫头答应了一声，走近几步。贾母笑道：“园里把咱们的宝玉叫了来，给这四个管家娘子瞧瞧，比他们的宝玉如何？”

“Precious so much as our old lady towards her grandson, who has the apple-blossom coloring just like a jade, so she gave him the name ‘Precious Jade’,” answered they. Grandma Merchant smiled at Silk Plum, “There should be another ‘Precious Jade’. What a coincidence!” “From ancient times to the present, many people of the same period but different generations are getting the same name. It is normal to see.” Silk Plum and the rest raised slightly and comforted, when the four women joined the topic, “We also wondered if there was also another ‘Precious Jade’ of some relative after his pet name was given. But we failed to remember it clearly because we hadn’t come into the capital for a decade.” “That relative is no other but my grandson. Is there some messenger?” The grandma asked. The wives and maids promised and stepped up. “You go to ask Precious Jade to come here for these four mistresses to have a look. To look compared with theirs, how our ‘Precious Jade’ is,” Grandma Merchant beamed.

众媳妇听了，忙去了，半刻，围了宝玉进来。四人一见，忙起身笑道：“唬了我们一跳！若是我们不进府来，倘若别处遇见，还只当是我们的宝玉后赶着也进了京呢！”一面说，一面都上来拉他的手，问长问短。宝玉也笑问个好。贾母笑道：“比你们的长的如何？”李纨等笑道：“四位妈妈才一说，可知是模样相仿了。”贾母笑道：“那有这样巧事？大家子孩子们，再养得娇嫩，除了脸上有残疾十分丑的，大概看去都是一样齐整。这也没有什么怪处。”四人笑道：“如今看来，模样是一样！

The maids went away, returning together with Precious Jade, at sight of whom the four women rose to their feet. "Well, this is really a surprise for us!" they laughed. "If we’d met him somewhere excluding here, we’d have thought our Precious Jade had followed us to the capital." They came to Precious Jade, who extended his greeting with a smile, and taking his hand they asked him a succession of questions. "How does he compare with your boy?" inquired the Grandma Merchant. "In line with what the four nannies just said, these two must be rather alike in appearance," said Silk Plum. "That’s not a coincidence," Grandma Merchant amused, "If they had no disease causing disfigurements, the doted sons of great houses all look rather handsome. There’s definitely nothing strange at all." "They’re the mirror of each other," declared the four women.

据老太太说，淘气也一样；我们看来，这位哥儿，性情却比我们的好些。”贾母忙问：“怎见得？”四人笑道：“方才我们拉哥儿的手说话，便知道了。若是我们那一个，只说我们糊涂。慢说拉手，他的东西，我们略动一动，也不依。所使唤的人，都是女孩子们……”四人未说完，李纨姊妹等禁不住都失声笑出来。贾母也笑道：“我们这会子也打发人去见了你们宝玉，若拉他的手，他也自然勉强忍耐着。不知你我这样人家的孩子，凭他们有什么刁钻古怪的毛病，见了外人，必是要还出正经礼数来的。

‘According to what you say, both of them have been rather naughty; But your grandson seems to be the better-tempered of the two.’‘Why do you say that?’‘We found out that by holding his hands just now. Ours would have thought us silly. We're not allowed even to touch his things, let alone hold his hands. So all his maids are young girls...'This evoked laughter from Silk Plum and the girls.‘If I sent people to see Precious Jade, and if they took his hand, he’d have to put up with it too,’ chuckled the old lady. ‘No matter how perverse they may be,children from families like ours would always behave correctly to other people.'

若他不还正经礼数，也断不容他刁钻去了。就是大人溺爱的，也因为他一则生的得人意儿；二则见人礼数，竟比大人行出来的更不错，使人见了可爱可怜，背地里所以才纵他一点子。若一味他只管没里没外，不与大人争光，凭他生的怎样，也是该打死的。”四人听了，都笑说：“老太太这话正是。虽然我们宝玉淘气古怪，有时见了客，规矩礼数，比大人还有趣，所以无人见了不爱，只说：‘为什么还打他？’殊不知他在家里无法无天，大人想不到的话偏会说，想不到的事偏要行，所以老爷太太恨的无法。

If he is not decent, he will not be allowed to be unruly. Even adults dote on, but also because of his a born satisfactory son; On the other hand, he was so polite that he was even better than a big man. He was so cute and pitiful that he secretly gave him the idea. If he does not strive for glory with his elders, he should be killed according to his birth." Hearing this, all four laughed and said, "That's exactly what the old lady said. Although Precious Jade Merchant was mischievous and eccentric, sometimes he was more interesting than the adults when he met guests and behaved in a polite way, no one loved him and said, 'Why are you still beating him? 'But he was a lawless man at home, saying and doing what grown-ups could not think of, and his lordship and his wife hated him.

就是任性，也是小孩子的常情；胡乱花费，也是公子哥儿的常情；怕上学，也是小孩子的常情，都还治得过来。第一，天生下来这一种刁钻古怪的脾气，如何使得。”一语未完，人回：“太太回来了。”王夫人进来，问过安。他四人请了安，大概说了两句。贾母便命：“歇歇去罢。”王夫人亲捧过茶，方退出去。四人告辞了贾母，便往王夫人处来。说了一会子家务，打发他们回去，不必细说。这里贾母喜得逢人便告诉：也有一个宝玉，也都一般行景。众人都想着：天下的世宦大家，同名的这也很多，祖母溺爱孙者也是常事，不是什么罕事，皆不介意。

It is common that boys of noble families are wayward, extravagant and reluctant to go to school. All of these manners can be corrected. However, how should we do to deal with this perverse and eccentric disposition which is naturally born?" Before they finished, a man reported, "The Lady is back." Then Lady King came in and wished her mother-in-law good health. The four of them also paid their respects and they talked for a while. Then Grandma Merchant ordered, "You can go to have a rest." Lady King served the tea for Grandma Merchant and withdrew. The four took leave of the old dowager and follow Lady King to her room. After talking a little about household affairs, Lady King sent them away.It's no need going into more details. On the other hand, Grandma Merchant was happy to tell people she met: there was also a "Precious Jade" in another family who was like the one of their own. Everyone thought it not strange that there existed some namesakes in many official families who were doted by grandmother. So nobody really cared.

独宝玉是个迂阔呆公子的性情，自为是那四人承悦贾母之词；后至园中去看湘云病去，史湘云因说他：“你放心闹罢，先还‘单丝不成线，独树不成林’，如今有了个对子。闹急了，再打很了，你好逃到南京找那一个去。”宝玉道：“那里的谎话，你也信了，偏又有宝玉了？”湘云道：“怎么列国有个蔺相如，汉朝又有个司马相如呢？”宝玉笑道：“这也罢了，偏又模样儿也一样，这是没有的事！”湘云道：“怎么匡人看见孔子，只当是阳货呢？”宝玉笑道：“孔子阳贷虽同貌，却不同名，蔺与司马虽同名，而又不同貌；偏我和他就两样俱同不成？”

However, Precious Jade was a dull and precious man in position and thought what the four people said were only to please Grandma Merchant. Then he went to the park to visit Fragrant-cloud, and she said:" Now you can do whatever you want to do. Prior to this, 'one strand of silk does not make a thread, one tree does not make a forest'. But now you have a company identical to you. You can escape to Nanjing to find your company if you fight noisily." Precious Jade said:"That’s a lie and you believed in that nonsense. How could the other Precious Jade exist in the world. "Fragrant-cloud said:"How could there were Lin Xiangru in the various states or nations while Sima Xiangru in Han dynasty." Precious Jade smiled:"It’s not just the identical name but the same appearance which seems impossible!" Fragrant-cloud said:" How could people in Spring and Autumn period mistake Confucius for Yang Dai?" Precious Jade smiled:"Confucius and Yang Dai shared appearance but had different name while Lin and Sima shared the name but looked different. However I and my company shared the both."

However, Precious Jade alone was a dull and unworldly man with a silver spoon and thought what the four people said was only to please Grandma Merchant.

湘云没了话答对，因笑道：“你只会胡搅，我也不和你分证。有也罢，没也罢，与我无干。说着，便睡下了。宝玉心中便又疑惑起来：“若说必无，也似必有；若说必有，又并无目睹。”心中闷闷，回至房中榻上，默默盘算，不觉昏昏睡去，竟到一座花园之内。宝玉咤异道：“除了我们大观园，竟又有这一个园子？”正疑惑间，忽然那边来了几个女孩儿，都是丫鬟，宝玉又咤异道：“除了鸳鸯、袭人、平儿之外，也竟还有这一干人？”只见那些丫鬟笑道：“宝玉怎么跑到这里来？”

Nothing to refute, Fragrant-cloud History smiled, “You’re just behaving at random, I refuse to argue with you. Whether it’s so or not, it has nothing to do with me.” Then, she fell asleep. Precious Jade felt uncertain in mind, “I may say this can’t be, yet I feel it seemed that it’s true. Yet how can I be sure, when I haven’t seen with my own eyes?” There was a feeling of depression around him so he returned to the bed to think. Soon he dozed off and dreamed that he was in a garden. Precious Jade marveled, “Is there another garden like this except Grand View Garden?” when he was puzzled, some maids approached. He said in surprise again, “There are more girls here except Mandarin Duck, Aroma, Patience.” The maids asked, “ What is Precious Jade coming here.”

宝玉只当是说他，忙来陪笑说道：“因我偶步到此，不知是那位世交的花园？姐姐们带我逛逛。”众丫鬟都笑道：“原来不是咱们家的宝玉。他生得也还干净，嘴儿也倒乖觉。”宝玉听了，忙道：“姐姐们这里，也竟还有个宝玉？”丫鬟们忙道：“‘宝玉’二字，我们家是奉老太太、太太之命，为保佑他延年消灾的，我们叫他，他听见喜欢；你是那里远方来的小厮，也乱叫起来！仔细你的臭肉，打不烂了你的！”又一个丫鬟笑道：“咱们快走罢，别叫宝玉看见。”又说：“同这臭小子说了话，把咱们熏臭了！”说着，一径去了。

Precious Jade, assuming that they were talking about him, answered with a smile, ''I happened to ramble in here. I wonder which of my family's friends this garden belongs to. Will you show me round it, sisters?'' ''It isn't our Precious Jade after all,'' laughed the girls.'' ''He's not bad-looking though, and soft-spoken too.'' ''Is there another Precious Jade here, sisters?'' Precious Jade asked eagerly. ''It was the old lady and mistress who told us to call him Precious Jade as a means of bringing him luck,'' the girls rejoined. ''He likes it when we call him by his name. But how can a stinking young boy from far away like you to use it at random? You'd better watch out or we' ll beat you to a pulp!'' ''Let's go before Precious Jade sees him,'' urged another. ''Talking to this stinking wretch here had made us stink too.'' With that they hurried off.

宝玉纳闷道：“从来没有人如此荼毒我，他们如何竟这样的？莫不真也有我这样一个人不成？”一面想，一面顺步早到了一所院内。宝玉咤异道：“除了怡红院，也竟还有这么一个院落？”忽上了台阶，进入屋内，只见榻上有一个人卧着，那边有几个女儿做针线，也有嘻笑玩耍的。只见榻上那个少年叹了一声，一个丫鬟笑问道：“宝玉，你不睡，又叹什么？想必为你妹妹病了，你又胡愁乱恨呢。”宝玉听说，心下也便吃惊。只见榻上少年说道：“我听见老太太说，‘长安’都中也有个宝玉，和我一样的性情，我只不信。

Precious Jade wondered: “No one treats me like that, how could they? Does there any other like me?” While thinking, he walked into a yard. He was confused:” Is there a yard except for Happy Red Court?” Stepping on the stairs, he only saw a person lying on the bed in the room, with several maids knitting and playing. The boy on the bed sighed and one girl asked: “Precious Jade, why don’t you sleep and sigh? Are you worried about your ill sister?” Precious Jade heard and was shocked when the boy said: “Grandma said there is a Precious Jade in Changan quite like me, but I don’t buy for it.”--[[User:Li Yijia|Li Yijia]] ([[User talk:Li Yijia|talk]]) 03:54, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

He was confused:” Is there another yard just like Happy Red Court?” Stepping up the stairs, he only saw a person lying on the bed in the room, with several maids knitting and playing beside him. The boy on the bed sighed and one girl asked: “Precious Jade, why don’t you sleep but sigh? Are you worried about your ill sister?” Precious Jade heard and was shocked when the boy said: “Grandma said there is another Precious Jade in Changan quite like me, but I don’t buy for it.”--[[User:Li Simin|Li Simin]] ([[User talk:Li Simin|talk]]) 09:53, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

我才做了一个梦，竟梦中到了都中一个花园子里头，遇见几个姐姐，都叫我臭小厮，不理我。好容易找到他房里，偏他睡觉，空有皮囊，真性不知往那里去了。”宝玉听说，忙说道：“我因找宝玉来到这里。原来你就是宝玉？”榻上的忙下来拉住，笑道：“原来你就是宝玉！这可不是梦里了。”宝玉道：“这如何是梦？真而又真的！”一语未了，只见人来说：“老爷叫宝玉。”吓得二人皆慌了。一个宝玉就走，一个便忙叫：“宝玉快回来，宝玉快回来！”袭人在旁听他梦中自唤，忙推醒他，笑问道：“宝玉在那里？”

"I just had a dream. In that dream, I came to a garden in the capital, I met several maids who called me a stinky boy and ignored me. I exerted great effort to find his room, but he was sleeping. He only has good-looking but no temper." Precious Jade Merchant heard his words and said:" I came to here for looking for Precious Jade. So you are Precious Jade?" The one on the bed went down his bed and laughed:" So you are Precious Jade! This is not a dream." Precious Jade replied:" How can this be a dream? It's genuine!" Before he had finished his words, a servant said, "The master called for Precious Jade." They both panicked. One wanted to leave, and the other hurriedly shouted, "Precious Jade, come back!" Aroma next to him heard Precious Jade shouting in his dream, she woke him up and asked," Where is Precious Jade?"--[[User:Li Simin|Li Simin]] ([[User talk:Li Simin|talk]]) 09:48, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

此时宝玉虽醒，神意尚恍惚，因向门外指说：“才出了不远。”袭人笑道：“那是你梦迷了。你揉眼细瞧，是镜子里照的你的影儿。”宝玉向前瞧了一瞧，原是那嵌的大镜对面相照，自己也笑了。早有丫鬟捧过漱盂茶卤来漱了口。麝月道：“怪道老太太常嘱咐说：‘小人儿屋里不可多有镜子，小人魂不全，有镜子照多了，睡觉惊恐做胡梦。’如今倒在大镜子那里安了一张床！有时放下镜套还好；往前去，天热困倦，那里想得到放他，比如方才就忘了，自然先躺下照着影儿玩来着，一时合上眼，自然是胡梦颠倒的，不然，如何叫起自己的名字来呢？

Precious Jade Merchant was awake, but still in a trance. He pointed out the door and said, "I haven't been out that long." Aroma replied with a smile, "You are drowsy. Look closely, it's you in the mirror." So he looked forward again and finally realized that he had a big mirror in front of him. He smiled too. The servant girl came with a spittoon for him to gargle. Musk Deer Month said to him, "No wonder the Old Lady used to say, 'There should not be too many mirrors in a room with children, because children's souls are not mature enough, and if you look too much in the mirror, you will have nightmares at night. But you have such a big mirror in your room! It's okay when you cover it in your daily life. There was a hot hot weather a few days before, so naturally it is difficult to remind people to take out the mirror cover. You know, you just forgot about it, and then you lied in bed, looked at yourself in the mirror, and then you fell asleep. So nightmares came. If it wasn't for this reason, why would you call out your name?

话说宝玉听王夫人唤他，忙至前边来，原来是王夫人要带他拜甄夫人去。宝玉自是欢喜，忙去换衣服，跟了王夫人到那里。见其家形景，自与荣宁不甚差别，或有一二稍盛者。细问，果有一宝玉。甄夫人留席，竟一日方回。宝玉不信。因晚间回家来，王夫人又吩咐预备上等的席面，定名班大戏，请过甄夫人母女。后二日，他母女便不作辞，回任去了，无话。

It turned out that Lady King wanted to take him to visit Lady Truth. Precious Jade cheerfully changed his clothes and followed his mother there. The Truths’ house struck him as much like the Prosperity and Peace mansions, if not slightly grander. After careful inquiries, he learned that they did indeed have a young master also called Precious Jade.

When he returned home in the evening, Lady King ordered the first-class banquet to be prepared and a celebrated opera company hired to entertain Lady Truth and her daughter.

这日宝玉因见湘云渐愈，然后去看黛玉。正值黛玉才歇午觉，宝玉不敢惊动，因紫鹃正在回廊上手里做针线，便上来问他：“昨日夜里咳嗽的可好了？”紫鹃道：“好些了。”宝玉笑道：“阿弥陀佛！宁可好了罢。”紫鹃笑道：“你也念起佛来，真是新闻！”宝玉笑道：“所谓‘病笃乱投医’了。”一面说，一面见他穿着弹墨绫薄绵袄，外面只穿着青缎夹背心，宝玉便伸手向他身上抹了一抹，说道：“穿这样单薄，还在风口里坐着，时气又不好，你再病了，越发难了。”紫鹃便说道：“从此咱们只可说话，别动手动脚的：

When the Mascara Jade take a nap, the Precious Jade did not dare to disturb, because Fine (Nightingale) is sewing on the cloister, then came up and asked him: "How was she? Was her cough any better last night?""Better," Nightingale said. "Amitabha!" he said:"It's time to recover."Nightingale laughed that:"It's strange that you said Buddha,that's a news."He said:" A drawing man can catch at a straw."As well as he looked at her costume that she was wearing a thin padded silk tunic with black dots under a lined blue silk sleeveless jacket, he reached out to feel her clothes, he said:" You wear too thin to sit in a draught here for this time of year. If you go sick too, things here will be even worse." Nightingale retorted:" When we talk to each other, please keep your hand away from me."

That day when he saw Fragrant-cloud recovered gradually, Precious Jade went to visit Mascara Jade. At that moment, she was taking a nap, so Precious Jade did not dare to disturb her, because Nightingale was doing needling work on the cloister. Then he came to and asked her: "How is she? Does she stop coughing?" "Better," Nightingale said. "Amitabha!" he said. "It's time to recover." "It's strange that you should say Buddha," Nightingale laughed. He said: "It's like 'A drawing man can catch at a straw'. Then, he looked at her costume, which was just a thin padded silk tunic with black dots and a lined blue silk sleeveless jacket outside, and then he reached out to feel the thickness of her clothes. "You wear too thin to sit in the place with strong wind for this time of year. If you were also sick, things here would be even worse," he said.

一年大，二年小的，叫人看着不尊重。打紧的那起混帐行子们背地里说你；你总不留心，还只管和小时一般行为，如何使得。姑娘常常吩咐我们，不叫和你说笑。你近来瞧他，远着你还恐远不及呢。”说着，便起身携了针线进别的房里去了。宝玉见了这般景况，心中像浇了一盆冷水一般，只瞅着竹子发了一回呆。因祝妈正在那里挖刨土种竹，扫竹叶子，顿觉一时魂魄失守，随便坐在一块山石上出神，不觉滴下泪来。直呆了一顿饭工夫，千思万想，总不知如何是可。偶值雪雁从王夫人房中取了人参来，从此经过，忽扭头看见桃花树下石上一人，手托着腮颊，正出神呢：

"As we grow up, this kind of behavior will be not proper. Although they have always been speaking ill of you behind your back, you still turn a deaf ear to that and keep doing those things when we were little. This is out of place now. The mistress has always been telling us not to talking and playing with you. She is trying her best to hide from you recently when you come to visit her, and hiding from you will be not enough at all," she said and then got into another room with the needling stuff. Hearing what she said and seeing what she acted, Precious Jade felt like being poured with a basin of cold water in his heart and then just stared at the bamboos pondering. At that moment, Nanny Wish was digging there to plant bamboos and cleaning out the fallen leaves. It was dawned on him that his soul went out of his body. He sat on a rock with his mind wandering, and he then could not help shedding tears. He thought again and again and still did not know what to do until the meal time passed. Snow Goose passed here by accident when she just fetched the ginseng from Lady King's place, and saw the person thinking on the rock with his hand on his cheeks when she suddenly raised her head.

不是别人，却是宝玉。雪雁疑惑道：“怪冷的，他一个人在这里做什么？春天凡有残疾的人肯犯病，敢是他也犯了呆病了？”一边想，一边便走过来，蹲下来笑道：“你在这里做什么呢？”宝玉忽见了雪雁，便说道：“你又做什么来找我？你难道不是女儿？他既防嫌，不许你们理我，你又来寻我，倘被人看见，岂不又生口舌？你快家去罢。”雪雁听了，只当是他又受了黛玉的委屈，只得回至房中。黛玉未醒，将人参交给紫鹃。紫鹃因问他：“太太做什么呢？”雪雁道：“也睡中觉呢，所以等了这半日。

At this time, Mascara-Jade was not awake so she could only give the ginseng to Nightingale. Nightingale asked, "What is madam doing?" Snowgoose replied, "Also sleeping. That's why I waited for the half day."

姐姐，你听笑话儿：我因等太太的工夫，和玉钏儿姐姐坐在下房里说话儿，谁知赵姨奶奶招手儿叫我。我只当有什么话说，原来他和太太告了假，出去给他兄弟伴宿坐夜，明日送殡去。跟他的小丫头子小吉祥儿没衣裳，要借我的月白绫子袄儿。我想：他们一般也有两件子的，往这地方去，恐怕弄坏了，自己的舍不得穿，故此借别人的。借我的，弄坏了也是小事，只是我想他素日有什么好处到咱们跟前，所以我说：我的衣裳簪环，都是姑娘叫紫鹃姐姐收着呢。如今先得去告诉他，还得回姑娘，费多少事，别误了你老人家出门，不如再转借罢。”

“sister, I tell you a story: I chat with Jade Bracelet in the servant's room when waiting the lady to wake up. Who knows concubine Zhao beckoned me. I suppose she has something to say. It turned out that she had taken a leave of absence to go out to sit with her brothers for the night, and sent the funeral tomorrow. As her personal servant girl Little Auspicious has no decent coat, she wanted to borrow my Moon-white Ayako jacket. But I thought they usually have several coats. And they may be afraid their coats will be contaminated in that place, so they are reluctant to wear their own clothes and seek to borrow others. Now that they came to borrow from me. Though it doesn't matter to have my clothes broken, I remember she barely think of us when she get some good things. Then I replied to her: My clothes are all collected by the girl named Purple Crane. Now I have to tell her first and then go back to tell that girl. That process takes your a long time. Why not go to ask others. ”

紫鹃笑道：“你这个小东西儿，倒也巧。你不借给他，你推我和姑娘身上，好叫人怨不着你。他这会子就去啊，还是等明日一早才去呢？”雪雁道“这会子就去的，只怕此时已去了。”紫鹃点头。雪雁道：“姑娘还没醒呢，是谁给了宝玉气受？坐在那里哭呢。”紫鹃听了，忙问：“在那里？”雪雁道：“在沁芳亭后头桃花底下呢。”紫鹃听说，忙放下针线，又嘱咐雪雁：“好生听叫。若问我，答应我就来。”说着，便出了潇湘馆，一径来寻宝玉，走至宝玉跟前，含笑说道：“我不过说了那两句话，为的是大家好，你就一气，跑了这风地里来哭，弄出病来还了得！”

Precious Jade smiled, “I’m not throwing temper here. It’s because I found what you said is very reasonable. Even you see it in that way, so do others. Gradually, you’ll all keep me in distance, the very thought of which makes me sad. Nightingale moved closer beside him. “You left while I was just sitting opposite and talking to you.

虽不便和太太要，我已经在老太太跟前略露了个风声，只怕老太太和凤姐姐说了。我告诉他的，竟不告诉完。如今我听见一日给你们一两燕窝，这也就完了。”紫鹃道：“原来是你说了，这又多谢你费心。我们正疑惑，老太太怎么忽然想起来叫人每一日送一两燕窝来呢？这就是了。”宝玉笑道：“这要天天吃惯了，吃上三二年就好了。”紫鹃道：“在这里吃惯了，明年家去，那里有这闲钱吃这个。”宝玉听了，吃了一惊，忙问：“谁家去？”紫鹃道：“妹妹回苏州去。”宝玉笑道：“你又说白话。苏州虽是原籍，因没了姑母，无人照看，才接了来的；

As it’s no use asking my mother. I dropped a hint to the old lady, and I suspect she must have told Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you. We’ve been wondering what made the old lady suddenly start sending an ounce every day, so that’s the reason.” Precious Jade said with a smile,“If she takes it regularly every day, after two or three years her health should be much better.” The maid replied, “She can have some every day here, but where will the money come from to continue the cure when she goes home next year?” Precious Jade starlted, “Who’s going to which home?” She responded, “Your cousin—back to Suzhou.” “Nonsense!” Precious Jade chuckled. “Suzhou may be her hometown, but she came here because there was no one there to look after her after her parents’ death.

On the other hand it would be rather awkward to have to ask Sister Phoenix for it; so I dropped a hint to Grandma, and I rather think that she had a word on the subject with Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you.

明年回去找谁？可见是扯谎。”紫鹃冷笑道：“你太看小了人。你们贾家独是大族，人口多的；除了你家，别人只得一父一母，房族中真个再无人了不成？我们姑娘来时，原是老太太心疼他年小，虽有叔伯，不如亲父母，故此接来住几年。大了该出阁时，自然要送还林家的，终不成林家女儿在你贾家一世不成？林家虽贫到没饭吃，也是世代书宦人家，断不肯将他家的人丢与亲戚，落的耻笑，所以早则明年春天，迟则秋天，这里纵不送去，林家亦必有人来接的。前日夜里姑娘和我说了，叫我告诉你，将从前小时玩的东西，有他送你的，叫你都打点出来还他；

Whom could she go back to next year? You must be lying.” “What a poor opinion you have of other people!” Zijuan snorted, “I suppose you think yours is the only big family in the world. According to you, I suppose, other people only have fathers and mothers: they couldn't possibly have uncles and aunts on their father's side like you do. Our young lady was brought here for a few years while she was still only a child, because the old lady felt for her and didn't think her uncles could take the place of her parents. But it was only ever her intention to keep her here for a few years. As soon as she's old enough to be married, she'll have to go back to the Lin family. You could hardly expect a Lin family girl to spend the rest of her days among the Merchant family, now could you? Even if the Lins were desperately poor, for generations they've been a family of scholars and officials: they'd never expose themselves to ridicule by abandoning a daughter to relatives. So next spring or next autumn at the latest, even if your family doesn't send her back, the Lins are sure to send to fetch her. The other evening our young lady told me to ask you for all the little gifts and souvenirs she's given you since you were children.“

倒了茶来，他便吃茶。众人见他这样，一时忙乱起来，又不敢造次去回贾母，先要差人去请李嬷嬷来。一时李嬷嬷来了，看了半日：问他几句话，也无回答；用手向他脉上摸了摸，嘴唇人中上着力掐了两下，掐得指印如许来深，竟也不觉疼。李嬷嬷只说了一声：“可了不得了！”“呀”的一声，便搂头放声大哭起来。急得袭人忙拉他说：“你老人家瞧瞧可怕不怕？且告诉我们，去回老太太、太太去。你老人家怎么先哭起来？”李嬷嬷捶床捣枕说：“这可不中用了！我白操了一世心了！”袭人因他年老多知，所以请他来看；

And drink tea if it was brought.1His condition threw them all into a panic, but not daring to report this too hastily to the Lady Dowager they first sent for his old nurse, Nanny Li.Nanny Li, arriving presently, examined Baoyu carefully.When he made no answer to any of her questions she felt his pulse, then pinched his upper lip so hard that her fingers left deep imprints--yet he felt no pain.At that she gave a great cry of despair and, taking him in her arms, started weeping and wailing.Aroma, beside herself with anxiety, tugged imploringly at her sleeve:‘Nannie, Nannie, have another look at him and tell us how serious it is, so that we know what to say to Their Ladyships.Don't just cry!”Nannie Li hammered the bed with her fists:‘It's all up with him, I tell you.A life-time of care gone for nothing!”Aroma and the girls who, whatever else they might think of Nannie Li, respected her age and experience, assumed that she must know what she was talking about.

如今见他这般一说，都信以为实，也哭起来了。晴雯便告诉袭人方才如此这般，袭人听了，便忙到潇湘馆来，见紫鹃正伏侍黛玉吃药，也顾不得什么，便走上来问紫鹃道：“你才和我们宝玉说了些什么话？你瞧瞧他去！你回老太太去，我也不管了！”说着，便坐在椅上。黛玉忽见袭人满面急怒，又有泪痕，举止大变，更不免也着了忙，因问：“怎么了？”袭人定了一回，哭道：“不知紫鹃姑奶奶说了些什么话，那个呆子眼也直了，手脚也冷了，话也不说了，李嬷嬷掐着也不疼了，已死了大半个了！

==英语笔译聂薇 Nie Wei 202170081592==

连李嬷嬷都说不中用了，那里放声大哭，只怕这会子都死了！”黛玉听此言，李嬷嬷乃久经老妪，说不中用了，可知必不中用，“哇”的一声，将所服之药，一口呕出，抖肠搜肺、灸胃扇肝的，哑声大嗽了几阵：一时面红发乱，目肿筋浮，喘的抬不起头来。紫鹃忙上来捶背，黛玉伏枕喘息半晌，推紫鹃道：“你不用捶！你竟拿绳子来勒死我，是正经。”紫鹃哭道：“我并没说什么，不过是说了几句玩话，他就认真了。”袭人道：“你还不知道他那傻子，每每玩话认了真。”黛玉道：“你说了什么话？趁早儿去解说，他只怕就醒过来了。”

Even Nanny Li said there is no cure for him. Just listen to the cries from his room, I’m afraid he has died!” Hearing this, Mascara Jade knew that there is definitely nothing can be done to save him now that the sophisticated Nanny Li said so. The bad news made her vomit out all the medicine she had taken and have a fit of coughing before turning in to a red face and swollen eyes, and the severe gasp made it difficult for her to raise her head. Then Purple Cuckoo came up to thump on her back. After gasping on her pillow for quite a long time, she pushed Purple Cuckoo away and said, “ You don’t need to do that! The first priority for you is to strangle me with a rope!” Then her poor maid cried, “ I said nothing bad. I was just joking, but he took it seriously.” Aroma refuted, “ Don’t you understand that blockhead’s temper? He is always taking jokes seriously.” And Mascara Jade asked, “ What did you say to him? Just go to clarify it to him as soon as possible, maybe there is a possibility that he would come to.”

紫鹃听说，忙下床，同袭人到了怡红院。谁知贾母王夫人等已都在那里了。贾母一见了紫鹃，便眼内出火，骂道：“你这小蹄子，和他说了什么？”紫鹃忙道：“并没敢说什么，不过说几句玩话。”谁知宝玉见了紫鹃，方“嗳呀”了一声，哭出来了。众人一见，都放下心来。贾母便拉住紫鹃，只当他得罪了宝玉，所以拉紫鹃命他赔罪。谁知宝玉一把拉住紫鹃，死也不放，说：“要去连我也带了去。”众人不解，细问起来，方知紫鹃说要回苏州去，一句玩话引出来的。贾母流泪道：“我当有什么要紧大事，原来是这句玩话。”

When hearing what Mascara Jade've just said, Ningtingale jumped out of the bed quickly and headed for the Happy Red Court with Aroma. To their surprise, Grandma Merchant, Lady Wang and others were already there. When at the sight of Ningtingale, Grandma Merchant just abused and shouted at her with great fury, "What did you, such a hussy, say to Precious Jade on earth?" "Nothing but a few jokes", Ningtingale hurriedly responded. And who knows that Precious Jade burst into tears right after sighing with Ah the moment he saw Ningtingale. The crowd were all relieved when they saw that. And then keeping hold of her hands and just thinking she dispeased Precious Jade , Grandma Merchant let Ningtingale to make an apology to him. And everyone didn't expect that Precious Jade grabbed Ningtingale and refused to let her go, saying, "If you go, well then take me with you". Being puzzled, everyone questioned them closely what was going on and then realized that all these were caused by one of Ningtingale' s jokes that she would go back to Suzhou for fun. Then Grandma Merchant said with tears welling up from her eyes, "What a major matter I've just thought, it turns out to this joke originally."

又向紫鹃道：“你这孩子，素日是个伶俐聪敏的，你又知道他有个呆根子，平白的哄他作什么？”薛姨妈劝道：“宝玉本来心实，可巧林姑娘又是从小儿来的，他姊妹两个一处长得这么大，比别的姊妹更不同。这会子热刺刺的说一个去，别说他是个实心的傻孩子，便是冷心肠的大人，也要伤心。这并不是什么大病，老太太和姨太太只管万安，吃一两剂药就好了。”正说着，人回：“林之孝家的，赖大家的，都来瞧哥儿来了。”贾母道：“难为他们想着，叫他们来瞧瞧。”宝玉听了一个“林”字，便满床闹起来，

"You've always been a smart girl." then Grandma Merchant told Nightingale, "But why did you tease him for no reason, knowing that he is such a bullheaded boy?" "Precious Jade is born innocent. It happened that Mascara Jade has come here since she was little, and they are naturally different from other siblings as growing up together. Today he was told that she would go back home in an anxious way, and even an indifferent grown-up will feel sad when hearing that, let alone this simpleminded boy. Grandma and Lady King just rest assured. It's nothing serious, and he will recover with one or two doses of medicine." persuaded Aunt Marshgrass aside. While speaking, a message was delivered in that both Filial Piety Forest's wife and Big Rely's wife came here to visit Precious Jade. "It's so kind of them to care about him. Let them in." said Grandma Merchant. However, Precious Jade began to make a scene on the bed as he heard a word "Forest".

说：“了不得了，林家的人接他们来了，快打出去罢！”贾母听了，也忙说：“打出去罢。”又忙安慰说：“那不是林家的人。林家的人都死绝了，没人来接他的，你只放心罢。”宝玉哭道：“凭他是谁，除了林妹妹，都不许姓林的！”贾母道：“没姓林的来，凡姓林的都打出去了。”一面吩咐众人：“以后别叫林之孝家的进园来，你们也别说‘林’字。孩子们，你们听了我这一句话罢！”众人忙答应，又不敢笑。一时宝玉又一眼看见了十锦槅子上陈设的一双金西洋自行船，便指着乱说：“那不是接他们来的船来了？湾在那里呢！”

Conscious of that, Precious Jade pretended to be ill all the same for fear of losing Nightingale, who regretted her lies about Mascara Jade the other day and worked day and night without grudges taking care of him.

“I only did it for fun,” Nightingale replied.“But you took it seriously.”“That was no joke,”said Precious Jade. “It was too well-reasoned.Nightingale laughed. ”I made it all up.There is no people in the Forest family.If there is, they're very, very distant relations, and not in SuZhou, either, but scattered all over the place, in different provinces.Even if one of them asked for her, the old lady would never let her go.”“Even if the old lady would let her go, I wouldn't.”said Precious Jade.”I wonder,“said Nightingale.“That's just talk, I'm afraid.You're growing up now and already engaged; in a couple of years you'll be marrying, and then you'll forget other people.”Precious Jade heard her with astonishment. “Betrothed?To whom?””Just before New Year I heard Old Lady say that she was betrothing you to Miss Harp.

Then all the rest of me, skin and bones, could be turned into ashes. No, ashes still have form better be turned into smoke. But smoke still congeals and can be seen by men it would have to be scattered in a flash, by a great wind, to the four quarters. That would be a good death.”Tears were running down his cheeks as he spoke. Nightingale hastily put her hand to his mouth, then wiped away his tears.“You needn't worry,”she urged.“I was putting you to the test because I was worried.”

Precious Jade said with a smile.“People says me crazy, but you're even crazier! That was just a joke. She's already engaged to the son of Academician Mei. If I were engaged to her, would I be in this state? Didn't you plead with me and say I was mad when I swore that oath and wanted to smash that silly jade?

宝玉听了，更又咤异，问道：“你又着什么急？”紫鹃笑道：“你知道，我并不是林家的人，我也和袭人鸳鸯是一伙的，偏把我给了林姑娘使。偏生他又和我极好，比他苏州带来的还好十倍，一时一刻，我们两个离不开。我如今心里却愁他倘或要去了，我必要跟了他去的。我是合家在这里，我若不去，辜负了我们素日的情长；若去，又弃了本家。所以我疑惑，故说出这谎话来问你，谁知你就傻闹起来。”宝玉笑道：“原来是你愁这个，所以你是傻子。从此后再别愁了。我告诉你一句打趸儿的话：活着，咱们一处活着；不活着，咱们一处化灰，化烟。如何？”

Precious Jade asked in surprise，“You worried? Why?”“You know I don’t belong to the Forest family. Like Aroma and Mandarin Duck, I was given to Miss Forest. She treats me ten times better than her own maids brought from Suzhou; we can’t be seperated for a single moment. I’m worried now because, if she leaves, I shall have to go with her; but my whole family’s here. If I don’t go, I’ll be unworthy of all her goodness; if I do, I shall have to abandon my own family. That’s why, in my dilemma, I told you that lie to see how you felt about it. How was I know that you’d take it so hard?”“So that’s what’s worrying you,”Precious Jade smiled. “What a goose you are! Well, set your heart at rest. Let me just put it in a nutshell for you. If we live, we shall live together; and if we die, we shall turn into ashes and smoke together. How do you think？”

紫鹃听了，心下暗暗筹画。忽有人回：“环爷兰哥儿问候。”宝玉道：“就说难为他们，我才睡了，不必进来。”婆子答应去了。紫鹃笑道：“你也好了，该放我回去瞧瞧我们那一个去了。”宝玉道：“正是这话。我昨夜就要叫你去的，偏又忘了。我已经大好了，你就去罢。”紫鹃听说，方打迭叠铺盖妆奁之类。宝玉笑道：“我看见你文具里头有两三面镜子，你把那面小菱花的给我留下罢。我搁在枕头旁边，照着好睡，明日出门带着也轻巧。”紫鹃听说，只得与他留下，先命人将东西送过去，然后别了众人，自回潇湘馆来。
Juan listened, and secretly planned a plan. Suddenly someone replied, "Greetings from Huan Ye Lan." Bao Yu said, "I just said it was difficult for them, I just went to bed, and I don't have to come in." The old woman agreed to go. Zijuan smiled and said, "You're fine too, it's time to let me go back and see who we are." Baoyu said, "That's exactly what I said. I was going to ask you to go last night, but I forgot. I'm already fine. If you're done, you just go." Zijuan heard that Fang was putting on layers of bedding and make-up. Baoyu smiled and said, "I saw two or three mirrors in your stationery. You can leave the one with the little ling flower to me. I put it next to the pillow and sleep well. It's easy to take it with you when you go out tomorrow." I heard that I had to stay with him, order someone to send things over, then say goodbye to everyone, and return to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

黛玉近日闻得宝玉如此形景，未免又添些病症，多哭几场。今儿紫鹃来了，问其原故，已知大愈，仍遣琥珀去伏侍贾母。夜间人静后，紫鹃已宽衣卧下之时，悄向黛玉笑道：“宝玉的心倒实，听见咱们去，就那样起来。”黛玉不答。紫鹃停了半晌，自言自语的说道：“一动不如一静，我们这里就算好人家，别的都容易，最难得的是从小儿一处长大，脾气情性都彼此知道的了。”黛玉啐道：“你这几天还不乏，趁这会子不歇一歇，还嚼什么蛆！”紫鹃笑道：“倒不是白嚼蛆，我倒是一片真心为姑娘。

Hearing Precious Jade had a bad time, Mascara Jade cried a few more times and was more weak in illness. Today Nightingale came and asked the reason, she got to know that Mascara Jade was much better now, but she still send Amber to serve Merchant Grandma. At tranquil night, when Nightingale was undressed and lying down, she smiled at Mascara Jade and said, "Precious Jade is very sincere. He still struggled to get up when he heard we came." Mascara Jade did not answer. Nightingale stopped for a long time and said to herself, "It is better to keep quiet than to move. We consider ourselves a good family here. Everything else is easy. What is the rarest is that we grew up together in one place, so we know each other’s temperament well.” Mascara Jade scolded her, "Are you not tired in these days? Just take a break now and stop talking the nonsense!" Nightingale said with a smile, "What I am talking about is not nonsense and I have your best interests at heart.”

替你愁了这几年了：无父母无兄弟，谁是知疼着热的人？趁早儿，老太太还明白硬朗的时节，作定了大事要紧。俗语说，‘老健春寒秋后热。’倘或老太太一时有个好歹，那时虽也完事，只怕耽误了时光，还不得趁心如意呢。公子王孙虽多，那一个不是三房五妾，今儿朝东，明儿朝西？娶一个天仙来，也不过三夜五夜，也就撂在脖子后头了，甚至于怜新弃旧，反目成仇的。若娘家有人有势的，还好些；若姑娘这样的人，有老太太一日还好，一日若没了老太太，也只是凭人去欺负罢了。所以说，拿主意要紧。

I have been worried about you for several years. You have no parents or brothers to care for you. So it is important to settle you marriage affair in a good time, while Grandma Merchant is still healthy and clear-headed. As an old saying goes, “The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.” If something happens to Grandma Merchant, you marriage will be delayed or you will marry a people you don not wish. There are many young lordlings, but they both want to have many wives and concubines. There affection is not constant and may change from one to another. Even though they get a girl as a fairy as his wife, they may cast her off after several days. Someone may treat her as an enemy for the sake of another new concubine. If her family is powerful and wealthy, it may be not so bad; but for someone like you, you life will be good as long as Grandma Merchant still lives. However, someday once she pass away, you will live under others’ treatment. Therefore, it is important to make up your mind.

“It isn’t nonsense. I was thinking of you. I’ve felt worried for you all these years with no father, mother or brothers to care for you. The important thing is to settle the main affair of your life in good time, while the old lady’s still clear-headed and healthy. The proverb says, ‘The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.’ If anything should happen to the old lady your marriage might be delayed, or else not turn out in the way you hoped. There’s no lack of young lordlings, but they all want three wives and five concubines and their affections change from one day to the next. They may bring home a wife as lovely as a fairy, yet after four or five nights they cast her off, treating her like an enemy for the sake of a concubine or a slave girl. If her family’s large and powerful, that’s not so bad; and for someone like you, miss, so long as the old lady lives you’ll be all right. Once she’s gone, you’ll have to put up with ill treatment.

姑娘是个明白人，岂不闻俗语说的‘万两黄金容易得，知心一个也难求’！”黛玉听了，便说道：“这丫头今日可疯了，怎么去了几日，忽然变了一个人？我明儿必回老太太，退回你去，我不敢要你了。”紫鹃笑道：“我说的是好话，不过叫你心里留神，并没叫你去为非作歹。何苦回老太太，叫我吃了亏，又有什么好处？”说着，竟自己睡了。黛玉听了这话，口内虽如此说，心内未尝不伤感。待他睡了，便直哭了一夜，至天明，方打了一个盹儿。次日，勉强盥漱了，吃了些燕窝粥。便有贾母等亲来看视了，又嘱咐了许多话。
“You’ve sense enough to understand the saying, ‘The thousand taels of gold are easier come by than an understanding heart.” “The girl’s crazy!” exclaimed Mascara Jade. “A few days away, and you’ve suddenly changed into a different person. Tomorrow I shall ask the old lady to take you back. I no longer dare keep you.” “I meant well,” was the smiling answer. “I just wanted you to look out for yourself, not to do anything wrong. What good will it do if you report me to the old lady and get me into trouble?” With that Nightingale closed her eyes. Although Mascara Jade had spoken so sharply, this talk had distressed her. After Nightingale went to sleep she wept all night, no dozing off until dawn. The next morning she found it an effort to wash herself, rinse her mouth and swallow her bird’s-nest broth. Then the Lady Merchant and others called to see her and urged her to take better care of herself.

目今是薛姨妈的生日，自贾母起，诸人皆有祝贺之礼，黛玉也只得备了两色针线送去。是日也定了一班小戏，请贾母与王夫人等。独有宝玉与黛玉二人不曾去得。至晚散时，贾母等顺路又瞧了他二人一遍，方回房去。次日，薛姨妈家又命薛蝌陪诸伙计吃了一天酒，连忙了三四天，方才完备。因薛姨妈看见邢岫烟生得端雅稳重，且家道贫寒，是个钗荆裙布的女儿，便欲说与薛蟠为妻。因薛蟠素昔行止浮奢，又恐遭踏了人家的女儿，正在踌躇之际，忽想起薛蝌未娶，看他二人，恰是一对天生地设的夫妻，因谋之于凤姐儿。

Now that it was Aunt Marshgrass's birthday, everyone,beginning with Grandma Merchant had a congratulatory gift。And Mascara Jade had to prepare two-color needles and threads to send. On the same day, a small drama was also scheduled, and Grandma Merchant and Lady King were invited to watch. It was only Baoyu and Daiyu who didn't arrive. At the end of the night, Grandma Merchant and the others paid a visit to them before they went back to the room. The next day, Aunt Marshgrass's family ordered Tadpole Marshgrass to accompany the families to drink for a day, and it took three or four days to complete. Because Aunt Marshgrass thought that Cave Cloud Marshgrass was born elegant and stable in a poor family. Aunt Marshgrass wanted her to be married to Dragon Marshgrass. Because Dragon Marshgrass had done a lot of extravagance in the past, and was afraid of trampling on the daughter of others, so she was hesitating. Then she suddenly recalled that Tadpole Marshgrass was not yet married, and seeing that the two of them were just a couple born to be set up. Then she went to plan it with Sister Phoenix.

Sister Phoenix laughed, "You know that my mother-in-low has an eccentric disposition, so we need discuss about this matter slowly." When Grandma Merchant stopped by Siter Phoenix's house, she said to Grand Merchant, "Aunt Marshgrass wants you to do her a favor, but she feels embarrassed to tell you." Grand Merchant asked, "What is it?" Sister Phoenix told her the matter of the Marshgrass Family seeking a marriage alliance. Hearing this, Grand Merchant laughed, "What a wonderful thing it is! Your mother-in-law will agree when I tell her about it." After Grandma Merchant went back to her room, she ordered a servant to invite Lady City to come right now. She told Lady City about the marriage and guaranteed for it. Lady City thought to herself: "The Marshgrass Family has a good foundation and is rich now. And Tadpole Marshgrass is also a man of striking appearance." With the guarantee from Grandma Merchant, she agreed to the marriage between Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud City. Grandma Merchant was very happy and invited Aunt Marshgrass to come. And there came naturally lots of self-depreciatory words between them.

邢夫人方罢。那薛蝌岫烟二人，前次途中，曾有一面之遇，大约二人心中皆如意，只是那岫烟未免比先时拘泥了些，不好与宝钗姐妹共处闲语；又兼湘云是个爱取笑的，更觉不好意思。幸他是个知书达礼的，虽有女儿，还不是那种佯羞诈鬼、一味轻薄造作之辈。宝钗自那日见他起，想他家业贫寒；二则别人的父母皆是年高有德之人，独他的父母偏是酒糟透了的人，于女儿分中平常；邢夫人也不过是脸面之情，亦非真心疼爱；且岫烟为人雅重，迎春是个老实人，连他自己尚未照管齐全，如何能照管到他身上，

Lady City then relented. Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud Marshgrass had met before in one of their trips. They both were satisfied with each other. It was just that Cave Cloud was shier than the last time and didn't feel relaxed to chat with Precious Hairpin and other ladies. More than that, Fragrant-cloud History loved cracking jokes, which made her felt more uncomfortable. Luckily, she was highly cultured and stepped in propriety. Though a lady, he was not the kind that would cheat or flirt with others. Since the day Precious Hairpin met her, Precious Hairpin knew that she lived in poverty. Also, others parents were all aged and virtuous but hers were bad, which made her unique among all the ladies. Lady City's concern were out of courtesy rather than sincerity. Cave Cloud were elegant and Welcome-Spring were honest. They couldn't even take good care of themselves, how could they concern her.

凡闺阁中家常一应需用之物，或有亏乏，无人照管，他又不与人张口。宝钗倒暗中每相体贴接济，也不敢与邢夫人知道，也恐怕是多心闲话之故。如今却是众人意料之外奇缘作成这门亲事。岫烟心中先取中宝钗，有时仍与宝钗闲话，宝钗仍以姊妹相呼。这日宝钗因来瞧黛玉，恰值岫烟也来瞧黛玉，二人在半路相遇。宝钗含笑唤他到跟前，二人同走。至一块石壁后，宝钗笑问他：“这天还冷的很，你怎么倒全换了夹的了？”岫烟见问，低头不答。宝钗便知道又有了原故，因又笑问道：“必定是这个月的月钱又没得？凤姐姐如今也这样没心没计了。”
Whenever Cave Cloud ran short of any daily necessities, there was no one to see to it, and she was too unassuming to mention it. Precious Hairpin Marshgrass accordingly often helped her in secret, not letting Lady City know for fear of giving offence, with the result that now that this unexpected match had been arranged Cave Cloud felt even more closely bound to Precious Hairpin than to Tadpole Marshgrass. She often went to chat with her, and Precious Hairpin continued to address her as "cousin."
One day Precious Hairpin set out to call on Mascara Jade. Happening to meet Cave Cloud on the way, she beckoned her with a smile and they walked on together. As they skirted the back of a rockery, Precious Hairpin inquired: "Why have you changed out of padded clothes into lined ones, when the weather is still so cold?" Cave Cloud hung her head and said nothing.
Sensing some reason for this Precious Hairpin continued, "Don't tell me this month's allowance was held up again? Cousin Phoenix really is growing rather thoughtless."

Sensing some reason for this Precious Hairpin continued, "Don't tell me this month's allowance was held up again? Cousin Phoenix really is growing rather thoughtless."--[[User:Zhu Lijuan|Zhu Lijuan]] ([[User talk:Zhu Lijuan|talk]]) 10:27, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

岫烟道：“他倒想着不错日子给，因姑妈打发人和我说道：一个月用不了二两银子，叫我省一两给爹妈送出去；要使什么，横竖有二姐姐的东西，能着些搭着就使了。姐姐想：二姐姐也是个老实人，也不大留心。我使他的东西，他虽不说什么，他那些妈妈丫头，那一个是省事的？那一个是嘴里不尖的？我虽在那屋里，却不敢很使唤他们，过三天五天，我倒得拿出钱来，给他们打酒买点心吃才好。因此一月二两银子还不够使，如今又去了一两。前日我悄悄的把棉衣服叫人当了几吊钱盘缠。”宝钗听了，愁叹道：“偏梅家又合家在任上，后年才进来。
"She issued it on the right date," rejoined Cave Cloud. "But my aunt sent to tell me I shouldn't need two taels a month and must save one for my parents. She said if I was short of anything I could borrow from Spring Pleasure and make do. But, you see,Spring Pleasure is a simple soul who doesn't always think. She wouldn't mind my using her things, but those maids and nannies of hers are all troublemakers — you know what sharp tongues they have. Though I'm staying there, I dare not order them about; infact, every few days I have to spend money on wine and cakes for them. l can't manage even on two taels a month, and now it's been cut to one. So the other day I got someone, on the sly, to pawn my padded clothes for a few strings of cash."
Hearing this, Precious Hairpin frowned and sighed in sympathy. "It's too bad that the Mei family have all gone to the new post and won't be back in the capital till the year after next," she said.

若是在这里，琴儿过去了，好再商议你这事。离了这里就完了。如今不完了他妹妹的事，也断不敢先娶亲的。如今倒是一件难事。再迟两年，我又怕你熬煎出病来。等我和妈妈再商议。”宝钗又指他裙上一个璧玉珮问道：“这是谁给你的？”岫烟道：“这是三姐姐给的。”宝钗点头道：“他见人人皆有，独你一个没有，怕人笑话，故此送一个。这是他聪明细致之处。”岫烟又问：“姐姐此时那里去？”宝钗道：“我到潇湘馆去。你且回去，把那当票子叫丫头送来我那里，悄悄的取出来，晚上再悄悄的送给你去，早晚好穿；
If they were here,we could arrange Precious String'wedding and then yours. Once you leave here you'll be all right. The trouble is that Tadpole Marshgrass won't consider getting married before his younge sister; yet if you have to put up with two more years of this,I'm afraid it may ruin your health. I must talk to my mother and see what can be done. Then Baochai pointed at the green jade pendant hanging from her skirt,"Who gave you that?" "It's a present from Cousin Spring-seeking." Precious Hairpin nodded. "She must have noticed that you were the only one with no jade to wear,so to stop people laughing at you she gave you this. It shows how thoughtful and observant she is. Cave Cloud assented then asked her where she was going. "To Bamboo Lodge," Precious Hairpin told her slip back and send a maid over to our place with the pawn ticket. I'll have the clothes redeemed quietly and sent to you this evening,so that you have something warm to wear.--[[User:Mahzad Heydarian|Mahzad Heydarian]] ([[User talk:Mahzad Heydarian|talk]]) 06:02, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

不然，风闪着还了得！但不知当在那里了？”岫烟道：“叫做什么恒舒典，是鼓楼西大街的。”宝钗笑道：“这闹在一家去了！伙计们倘或知道了，好说‘人没过来，衣裳先过来’了。”岫烟听说，便知是他家的本钱，也不答，红了脸一笑，二人走开。宝钗就往潇湘馆来。恰正值他母亲也来瞧黛玉，正说闲话呢。宝钗笑道：“妈妈多早晚来的？我竟不知道。”薛姨妈道：“我这几天忙，总没来瞧瞧宝玉和他。所以今日瞧他人，都也好了。”黛玉忙让宝钗坐了，因向宝钗道：“天下的事，真是人想不到的。拿着姨妈和大舅母说起，怎么又作一门亲家。”薛姨妈道：“我的儿，你们女孩儿家那里知道？
Otherwise, the wind is still shining! But don't know where it is? "Xiu Yan said: "What is it called Heng Shu Dian, it's from Gulou West Street. " Baochai smiled and said: "This is a family trouble! Guys, if they know, it's easier to say that "the clothes will come first before the people come". When Xiuyan heard it, she knew that it was his family's capital, so she didn't answer, she blushed and the two walked away. Baochai went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It was just when his mother came to see Daiyu and was gossiping. Baochai smiled and said, "How sooner or later did my mother come? I didn't know. Aunt Xue said, "I've been busy these days, so I never came to see Baoyu and him." So looking at others today, it's all good. Daiyu hurriedly asked Baochai to sit down, and Yin said to Baochai, "The affairs of the world are really unexpected. Talking about my aunt, how could they be in-laws again. Aunt Xue said, "My son, where do you girls know?"

薛姨妈将手摩弄着宝钗，向黛玉叹道：
“你这姐姐，就和凤哥儿在老太太跟前一样：有了正经事，就有话和他商量；没有
了事，幸亏他开我的心。我见了他这样，有多少愁不散的。”黛玉听说，流泪叹道：“他偏在这里这样，分明是气我没娘的人，故意来形

“你不厌我，就认了。”宝钗忙道：“认不得的。”黛玉道：“怎么认不得？”宝钗笑
道：“我且问你，我哥哥还没定亲事，为什么反将邢妹妹先说与我兄弟了？是什

四人道：“因老太太当作宝贝一样，他又生得白，老太太便叫作‘宝玉’。”贾母笑向李纨道：“偏也叫个‘宝玉’！”李纨等忙欠身笑道：“从古至今，同时隔代，重名的很多。”四人也笑道：“起了这小名儿之后，我们上下都疑惑，不知那位亲友家也倒是曾有一个的，只是这十来年没进京来，却记不得真了。”贾母笑道：“那就是我的孙子。人来！”众媳妇丫头答应了一声，走近几步。贾母笑道：“园里把咱们的宝玉叫了来，给这四个管家娘子瞧瞧，比他们的宝玉如何？”

“Precious so much as our old lady towards her grandson, who has the apple-blossom coloring just like a jade, so she gave him the name ‘Precious Jade’,” answered they. Grandma Merchant smiled at Silk Plum, “There should be another ‘Precious Jade’. What a coincidence!” “From ancient times to the present, many people of the same period but different generations are getting the same name. It is normal to see.” Silk Plum and the rest raised slightly and comforted, when the four women joined the topic, “We also wondered if there was also another ‘Precious Jade’ of some relative after his pet name was given. But we failed to remember it clearly because we hadn’t come into the capital for a decade.” “That relative is no other but my grandson. Is there some messenger?” The grandma asked. The wives and maids promised and stepped up. “You go to ask Precious Jade to come here for these four mistresses to have a look. To look compared with theirs, how our ‘Precious Jade’ is,” Grandma Merchant beamed.

众媳妇听了，忙去了，半刻，围了宝玉进来。四人一见，忙起身笑道：“唬了我们一跳！若是我们不进府来，倘若别处遇见，还只当是我们的宝玉后赶着也进了京呢！”一面说，一面都上来拉他的手，问长问短。宝玉也笑问个好。贾母笑道：“比你们的长的如何？”李纨等笑道：“四位妈妈才一说，可知是模样相仿了。”贾母笑道：“那有这样巧事？大家子孩子们，再养得娇嫩，除了脸上有残疾十分丑的，大概看去都是一样齐整。这也没有什么怪处。”四人笑道：“如今看来，模样是一样！

The maids went away, returning together with Precious Jade, at sight of whom the four women rose to their feet. "Well, this is really a surprise for us!" they laughed. "If we’d met him somewhere excluding here, we’d have thought our Precious Jade had followed us to the capital." They came to Precious Jade, who extended his greeting with a smile, and taking his hand they asked him a succession of questions. "How does he compare with your boy?" inquired the Grandma Merchant. "In line with what the four nannies just said, these two must be rather alike in appearance," said Silk Plum. "That’s not a coincidence," Grandma Merchant amused, "If they had no disease causing disfigurements, the doted sons of great houses all look rather handsome. There’s definitely nothing strange at all." "They’re the mirror of each other," declared the four women.

据老太太说，淘气也一样；我们看来，这位哥儿，性情却比我们的好些。”贾母忙问：“怎见得？”四人笑道：“方才我们拉哥儿的手说话，便知道了。若是我们那一个，只说我们糊涂。慢说拉手，他的东西，我们略动一动，也不依。所使唤的人，都是女孩子们……”四人未说完，李纨姊妹等禁不住都失声笑出来。贾母也笑道：“我们这会子也打发人去见了你们宝玉，若拉他的手，他也自然勉强忍耐着。不知你我这样人家的孩子，凭他们有什么刁钻古怪的毛病，见了外人，必是要还出正经礼数来的。

‘According to what you say, both of them have been rather naughty; But your grandson seems to be the better-tempered of the two.’‘Why do you say that?’‘We found out that by holding his hands just now. Ours would have thought us silly. We're not allowed even to touch his things, let alone hold his hands. So all his maids are young girls...'This evoked laughter from Silk Plum and the girls.‘If I sent people to see Precious Jade, and if they took his hand, he’d have to put up with it too,’ chuckled the old lady. ‘No matter how perverse they may be,children from families like ours would always behave correctly to other people.'

若他不还正经礼数，也断不容他刁钻去了。就是大人溺爱的，也因为他一则生的得人意儿；二则见人礼数，竟比大人行出来的更不错，使人见了可爱可怜，背地里所以才纵他一点子。若一味他只管没里没外，不与大人争光，凭他生的怎样，也是该打死的。”四人听了，都笑说：“老太太这话正是。虽然我们宝玉淘气古怪，有时见了客，规矩礼数，比大人还有趣，所以无人见了不爱，只说：‘为什么还打他？’殊不知他在家里无法无天，大人想不到的话偏会说，想不到的事偏要行，所以老爷太太恨的无法。

If he is not decent, he will not be allowed to be unruly. Even adults dote on, but also because of his a born satisfactory son; On the other hand, he was so polite that he was even better than a big man. He was so cute and pitiful that he secretly gave him the idea. If he does not strive for glory with his elders, he should be killed according to his birth." Hearing this, all four laughed and said, "That's exactly what the old lady said. Although Precious Jade Merchant was mischievous and eccentric, sometimes he was more interesting than the adults when he met guests and behaved in a polite way, no one loved him and said, 'Why are you still beating him?

It is common that boys of noble families are wayward, extravagant and reluctant to go to school. All of these manners can be corrected. However, how should we do to deal with this perverse and eccentric disposition which is naturally born?" Before they finished, a man reported, "The Lady is back." Then Lady King came in and wished her mother-in-law good health. The four of them also paid their respects and they talked for a while. Then Grandma Merchant ordered, "You can go to have a rest." Lady King served the tea for Grandma Merchant and withdrew. The four took leave of the old dowager and follow Lady King to her room. After talking a little about household affairs, Lady King sent them away.It's no need going into more details. On the other hand, Grandma Merchant was happy to tell people she met: there was also a "Precious Jade" in another family who was like the one of their own. Everyone thought it not strange that there existed some namesakes in many official families who were doted by grandmother. So nobody really cared.

独宝玉是个迂阔呆公子的性情，自为是那四人承悦贾母之词；后至园中去看湘云病去，史湘云因说他：“你放心闹罢，先还‘单丝不成线，独树不成林’，如今有了个对子。闹急了，再打很了，你好逃到南京找那一个去。”宝玉道：“那里的谎话，你也信了，偏又有宝玉了？”湘云道：“怎么列国有个蔺相如，汉朝又有个司马相如呢？”宝玉笑道：“这也罢了，偏又模样儿也一样，这是没有的事！”湘云道：“怎么匡人看见孔子，只当是阳货呢？”宝玉笑道：“孔子阳贷虽同貌，却不同名，蔺与司马虽同名，而又不同貌；偏我和他就两样俱同不成？”

However, Precious Jade was a dull and precious man in position and thought what the four people said were only to please Grandma Merchant. Then he went to the park to visit Fragrant-cloud, and she said:" Now you can do whatever you want to do. Prior to this, 'one strand of silk does not make a thread, one tree does not make a forest'. But now you have a company identical to you. You can escape to Nanjing to find your company if you fight noisily." Precious Jade said:"That’s a lie and you believed in that nonsense. How could the other Precious Jade exist in the world. "Fragrant-cloud said:"How could there were Lin Xiangru in the various states or nations while Sima Xiangru in Han dynasty." Precious Jade smiled:"It’s not just the identical name but the same appearance which seems impossible!" Fragrant-cloud said:" How could people in Spring and Autumn period mistake Confucius for Yang Dai?" Precious Jade smiled:"Confucius and Yang Dai shared appearance but had different name while Lin and Sima shared the name but looked different. However I and my company shared the both."

However, Precious Jade alone was a dull and unworldly man with a silver spoon and thought what the four people said was only to please Grandma Merchant.

湘云没了话答对，因笑道：“你只会胡搅，我也不和你分证。有也罢，没也罢，与我无干。说着，便睡下了。宝玉心中便又疑惑起来：“若说必无，也似必有；若说必有，又并无目睹。”心中闷闷，回至房中榻上，默默盘算，不觉昏昏睡去，竟到一座花园之内。宝玉咤异道：“除了我们大观园，竟又有这一个园子？”正疑惑间，忽然那边来了几个女孩儿，都是丫鬟，宝玉又咤异道：“除了鸳鸯、袭人、平儿之外，也竟还有这一干人？”只见那些丫鬟笑道：“宝玉怎么跑到这里来？”

Nothing to refute, Fragrant-cloud History smiled, “You’re just behaving at random, I refuse to argue with you. Whether it’s so or not, it has nothing to do with me.” Then, she fell asleep. Precious Jade felt uncertain in mind, “I may say this can’t be, yet I feel it seemed that it’s true. Yet how can I be sure, when I haven’t seen with my own eyes?” There was a feeling of depression around him so he returned to the bed to think. Soon he dozed off and dreamed that he was in a garden. Precious Jade marveled, “Is there another garden like this except Grand View Garden?” when he was puzzled, some maids approached. He said in surprise again, “There are more girls here except Mandarin Duck, Aroma, Patience.” The maids asked, “ What is Precious Jade coming here.”

宝玉只当是说他，忙来陪笑说道：“因我偶步到此，不知是那位世交的花园？姐姐们带我逛逛。”众丫鬟都笑道：“原来不是咱们家的宝玉。他生得也还干净，嘴儿也倒乖觉。”宝玉听了，忙道：“姐姐们这里，也竟还有个宝玉？”丫鬟们忙道：“‘宝玉’二字，我们家是奉老太太、太太之命，为保佑他延年消灾的，我们叫他，他听见喜欢；你是那里远方来的小厮，也乱叫起来！仔细你的臭肉，打不烂了你的！”又一个丫鬟笑道：“咱们快走罢，别叫宝玉看见。”又说：“同这臭小子说了话，把咱们熏臭了！”说着，一径去了。

Precious Jade, assuming that they were talking about him, answered with a smile, ''I happened to ramble in here. I wonder which of my family's friends this garden belongs to. Will you show me round it, sisters?'' ''It isn't our Precious Jade after all,'' laughed the girls.'' ''He's not bad-looking though, and soft-spoken too.'' ''Is there another Precious Jade here, sisters?'' Precious Jade asked eagerly. ''It was the old lady and mistress who told us to call him Precious Jade as a means of bringing him luck,'' the girls rejoined. ''He likes it when we call him by his name. But how can a stinking young boy from far away like you to use it at random? You'd better watch out or we' ll beat you to a pulp!'' ''Let's go before Precious Jade sees him,'' urged another. ''Talking to this stinking wretch here had made us stink too.'' With that they hurried off.

Precious Jade, assuming that they were talking about him, answered with a smile, ''I happened to ramble in here. I wonder which of my family's friends this garden belongs to. Will you show me around it, sisters?'' "It isn't our Precious Jade after all,'' laughed the girls.'' ''He's not bad-looking though, and soft-spoken too.''

宝玉纳闷道：“从来没有人如此荼毒我，他们如何竟这样的？莫不真也有我这样一个人不成？”一面想，一面顺步早到了一所院内。宝玉咤异道：“除了怡红院，也竟还有这么一个院落？”忽上了台阶，进入屋内，只见榻上有一个人卧着，那边有几个女儿做针线，也有嘻笑玩耍的。只见榻上那个少年叹了一声，一个丫鬟笑问道：“宝玉，你不睡，又叹什么？想必为你妹妹病了，你又胡愁乱恨呢。”宝玉听说，心下也便吃惊。只见榻上少年说道：“我听见老太太说，‘长安’都中也有个宝玉，和我一样的性情，我只不信。

Precious Jade wondered: “No one treats me like that, how could they? Does there any other like me?” While thinking, he walked into a yard. He was confused:” Is there a yard except for Happy Red Court?” Stepping on the stairs, he only saw a person lying on the bed in the room, with several maids knitting and playing. The boy on the bed sighed and one girl asked: “Precious Jade, why don’t you sleep and sigh? Are you worried about your ill sister?” Precious Jade heard and was shocked when the boy said: “Grandma said there is a Precious Jade in Changan quite like me, but I don’t buy for it.”--[[User:Li Yijia|Li Yijia]] ([[User talk:Li Yijia|talk]]) 03:54, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

我才做了一个梦，竟梦中到了都中一个花园子里头，遇见几个姐姐，都叫我臭小厮，不理我。好容易找到他房里，偏他睡觉，空有皮囊，真性不知往那里去了。”宝玉听说，忙说道：“我因找宝玉来到这里。原来你就是宝玉？”榻上的忙下来拉住，笑道：“原来你就是宝玉！这可不是梦里了。”宝玉道：“这如何是梦？真而又真的！”一语未了，只见人来说：“老爷叫宝玉。”吓得二人皆慌了。一个宝玉就走，一个便忙叫：“宝玉快回来，宝玉快回来！”袭人在旁听他梦中自唤，忙推醒他，笑问道：“宝玉在那里？”

"I just had a dream. In that dream, I came to a garden in the capital, I met several maids who called me a stinky boy and ignored me. I exerted great effort to find his room, but he was sleeping. He only has good-looking but no temper." Precious Jade Merchant heard his words and said:" I came to here for looking for Precious Jade. So you are Precious Jade?" The one on the bed went down his bed and laughed:" So you are Precious Jade! This is not a dream." Precious Jade replied:" How can this be a dream? It's genuine!" Before he had finished his words, a servant said, "The master called for Precious Jade." They both panicked. One wanted to leave, and the other hurriedly shouted, "Precious Jade, come back!"

此时宝玉虽醒，神意尚恍惚，因向门外指说：“才出了不远。”袭人笑道：“那是你梦迷了。你揉眼细瞧，是镜子里照的你的影儿。”宝玉向前瞧了一瞧，原是那嵌的大镜对面相照，自己也笑了。早有丫鬟捧过漱盂茶卤来漱了口。麝月道：“怪道老太太常嘱咐说：‘小人儿屋里不可多有镜子，小人魂不全，有镜子照多了，睡觉惊恐做胡梦。’如今倒在大镜子那里安了一张床！有时放下镜套还好；往前去，天热困倦，那里想得到放他，比如方才就忘了，自然先躺下照着影儿玩来着，一时合上眼，自然是胡梦颠倒的，不然，如何叫起自己的名字来呢？

Precious Jade Merchant was awake, but still in a trance. He pointed out the door and said, "I haven't been out that long." Aroma replied with a smile, "You are drowsy. Look closely, it's you in the mirror." So he looked forward again and finally realized that he had a big mirror in front of him. He smiled too. The servant girl came with a spittoon for him to gargle. Musk Deer Month said to him, "No wonder the Old Lady used to say, 'There should not be too many mirrors in a room with children, because children's souls are not mature enough, and if you look too much in the mirror, you will have nightmares at night. But you have such a big mirror in your room! It's okay when you cover it in your daily life. There was a hot hot weather a few days before, so naturally it is difficult to remind people to take out the mirror cover. You know, you just forgot about it, and then you lied in bed, looked at yourself in the mirror, and then you fell asleep. So nightmares came. If it wasn't for this reason, why would you call out your name?

话说宝玉听王夫人唤他，忙至前边来，原来是王夫人要带他拜甄夫人去。宝玉自是欢喜，忙去换衣服，跟了王夫人到那里。见其家形景，自与荣宁不甚差别，或有一二稍盛者。细问，果有一宝玉。甄夫人留席，竟一日方回。宝玉不信。因晚间回家来，王夫人又吩咐预备上等的席面，定名班大戏，请过甄夫人母女。后二日，他母女便不作辞，回任去了，无话。

这日宝玉因见湘云渐愈，然后去看黛玉。正值黛玉才歇午觉，宝玉不敢惊动，因紫鹃正在回廊上手里做针线，便上来问他：“昨日夜里咳嗽的可好了？”紫鹃道：“好些了。”宝玉笑道：“阿弥陀佛！宁可好了罢。”紫鹃笑道：“你也念起佛来，真是新闻！”宝玉笑道：“所谓‘病笃乱投医’了。”一面说，一面见他穿着弹墨绫薄绵袄，外面只穿着青缎夹背心，宝玉便伸手向他身上抹了一抹，说道：“穿这样单薄，还在风口里坐着，时气又不好，你再病了，越发难了。”紫鹃便说道：“从此咱们只可说话，别动手动脚的：

When the Mascara Jade take a nap, the Precious Jade did not dare to disturb, because Fine (Nightingale) is sewing on the cloister, then came up and asked him: "How was she? Was her cough any better last night?""Better," Nightingale said. "Amitabha!" he said:"It's time to recover."Nightingale laughed that:"It's strange that you said Buddha,that's a news."He said:" A drawing man can catch at a straw."As well as he looked at her costume that she was wearing a thin padded silk tunic with black dots under a lined blue silk sleeveless jacket, he reached out to feel her clothes, he said:" You wear too thin to sit in a draught here for this time of year. If you go sick too, things here will be even worse." Nightingale retorted:" When we talk to each other, please keep your hand away from me."

That day when he saw Fragrant-cloud recovered gradually, Precious Jade went to visit Mascara Jade. At that moment, she was taking a nap, so Precious Jade did not dare to disturb her, because Nightingale was doing needling work on the cloister. Then he came to and asked her: "How is she? Does she stop coughing?" "Better," Nightingale said. "Amitabha!" he said. "It's time to recover." "It's strange that you should say Buddha," Nightingale laughed. He said: "It's like 'A drawing man can catch at a straw'. Then, he looked at her costume, which was just a thin padded silk tunic with black dots and a lined blue silk sleeveless jacket outside, and then he reached out to feel the thickness of her clothes. "You wear too thin to sit in the place with strong wind for this time of year. If you were also sick, things here would be even worse," he said.

一年大，二年小的，叫人看着不尊重。打紧的那起混帐行子们背地里说你；你总不留心，还只管和小时一般行为，如何使得。姑娘常常吩咐我们，不叫和你说笑。你近来瞧他，远着你还恐远不及呢。”说着，便起身携了针线进别的房里去了。宝玉见了这般景况，心中像浇了一盆冷水一般，只瞅着竹子发了一回呆。因祝妈正在那里挖刨土种竹，扫竹叶子，顿觉一时魂魄失守，随便坐在一块山石上出神，不觉滴下泪来。直呆了一顿饭工夫，千思万想，总不知如何是可。偶值雪雁从王夫人房中取了人参来，从此经过，忽扭头看见桃花树下石上一人，手托着腮颊，正出神呢：

"As we grow up, this kind of behavior will be not proper. Although they have always been speaking ill of you behind your back, you still turn a deaf ear to that and keep doing those things when we were little. This is out of place now. The mistress has always been telling us not to talking and playing with you. She is trying her best to hide from you recently when you come to visit her, and hiding from you will be not enough at all," she said and then got into another room with the needling stuff. Hearing what she said and seeing what she acted, Precious Jade felt like being poured with a basin of cold water in his heart and then just stared at the bamboos pondering. At that moment, Nanny Wish was digging there to plant bamboos and cleaning out the fallen leaves. It was dawned on him that his soul went out of his body. He sat on a rock with his mind wandering, and he then could not help shedding tears. He thought again and again and still did not know what to do until the meal time passed. Snow Goose passed here by accident when she just fetched the ginseng from Lady King's place, and saw the person thinking on the rock with his hand on his cheeks when she suddenly raised her head.

不是别人，却是宝玉。雪雁疑惑道：“怪冷的，他一个人在这里做什么？春天凡有残疾的人肯犯病，敢是他也犯了呆病了？”一边想，一边便走过来，蹲下来笑道：“你在这里做什么呢？”宝玉忽见了雪雁，便说道：“你又做什么来找我？你难道不是女儿？他既防嫌，不许你们理我，你又来寻我，倘被人看见，岂不又生口舌？你快家去罢。”雪雁听了，只当是他又受了黛玉的委屈，只得回至房中。黛玉未醒，将人参交给紫鹃。紫鹃因问他：“太太做什么呢？”雪雁道：“也睡中觉呢，所以等了这半日。

At this time, Mascara-Jade was not awake so she could only give the ginseng to Nightingale. Nightingale asked, "What is madam doing?" Snowgoose replied, "Also sleeping. That's why I waited for the half day."

姐姐，你听笑话儿：我因等太太的工夫，和玉钏儿姐姐坐在下房里说话儿，谁知赵姨奶奶招手儿叫我。我只当有什么话说，原来他和太太告了假，出去给他兄弟伴宿坐夜，明日送殡去。跟他的小丫头子小吉祥儿没衣裳，要借我的月白绫子袄儿。我想：他们一般也有两件子的，往这地方去，恐怕弄坏了，自己的舍不得穿，故此借别人的。借我的，弄坏了也是小事，只是我想他素日有什么好处到咱们跟前，所以我说：我的衣裳簪环，都是姑娘叫紫鹃姐姐收着呢。如今先得去告诉他，还得回姑娘，费多少事，别误了你老人家出门，不如再转借罢。”

It turned out that she had taken a leave of absence to go out to sit with her brothers for the night, and sent the funeral tomorrow. As her personal servant girl Little Auspicious has no decent coat, she wanted to borrow my Moon-white Ayako jacket. But I thought they usually have several coats. And they may be afraid their coats will be contaminated in that place, so they are reluctant to wear their own clothes and seek to borrow others. Now that they came to borrow from me. Though it doesn't matter to have my clothes broken, I remember she barely think of us when she get some good things. Then I replied to her: My clothes are all collected by the girl named Purple Crane. Now I have to tell her first and then go back to tell that girl. That process takes your a long time. Why not go to ask others. ”

紫鹃笑道：“你这个小东西儿，倒也巧。你不借给他，你推我和姑娘身上，好叫人怨不着你。他这会子就去啊，还是等明日一早才去呢？”雪雁道“这会子就去的，只怕此时已去了。”紫鹃点头。雪雁道：“姑娘还没醒呢，是谁给了宝玉气受？坐在那里哭呢。”紫鹃听了，忙问：“在那里？”雪雁道：“在沁芳亭后头桃花底下呢。”紫鹃听说，忙放下针线，又嘱咐雪雁：“好生听叫。若问我，答应我就来。”说着，便出了潇湘馆，一径来寻宝玉，走至宝玉跟前，含笑说道：“我不过说了那两句话，为的是大家好，你就一气，跑了这风地里来哭，弄出病来还了得！”

Snowgoose said:"he has left just now." Nightingale nodded to Snowgoose and Snowgoose said:"he is watching the peach blossom in the Aroma Pivillion.

宝玉忙笑道：“谁赌气了！我因为听你说得有理，我想你们既这样说，自然别人也是这样说，将来渐渐的都不理我了，我所以想到这里，自己伤起心来了。”紫鹃也便挨他坐着。宝玉笑道：“方才对面说话，你尚走开，这会子如何又来挨我坐着？”紫鹃道：“你都忘了？几日前，你们姊妹两个正说话，赵姨娘一头走了进来，我才听见他不在家，所以我来问你。正是前日你和他才说了一句‘燕窝’，就歇住了，总没提起，我正想着问你。”宝玉道：“也没什么要紧。不过我想着宝姐姐也是客中，既吃燕窝，又不可间断，若只管和他要，也太托实。

Precious Jade smiled, “I’m not throwing temper here. It’s because I found what you said is very reasonable. Even you see it in that way, so do others. Gradually, you’ll all keep me in distance, the very thought of which makes me sad. Nightingale moved closer beside him. “You left while I was just sitting opposite and talking to you. Now what’s about this?”smiled Precious Jade. “You don’t remember what happened the other day? Nightingale said, “When you and Miss Forest were talking, Mrs. Zhao burst in suddenly. I heard she’s not home right now so I came here to ask you this thing: You were about to talk about the birds nest at the moment, and got interrupted by Mrs. Zhao, which you haven’t brought up since then.” Precious Jade replied,”No big deal. It’s that I think Sister Precious Hairpin lives here as a guest, and Mascara Jade need to have birds nest constantly, so it might be inappropriate to keep receiving this from her.”

虽不便和太太要，我已经在老太太跟前略露了个风声，只怕老太太和凤姐姐说了。我告诉他的，竟不告诉完。如今我听见一日给你们一两燕窝，这也就完了。”紫鹃道：“原来是你说了，这又多谢你费心。我们正疑惑，老太太怎么忽然想起来叫人每一日送一两燕窝来呢？这就是了。”宝玉笑道：“这要天天吃惯了，吃上三二年就好了。”紫鹃道：“在这里吃惯了，明年家去，那里有这闲钱吃这个。”宝玉听了，吃了一惊，忙问：“谁家去？”紫鹃道：“妹妹回苏州去。”宝玉笑道：“你又说白话。苏州虽是原籍，因没了姑母，无人照看，才接了来的；

As it’s no use asking my mother. I dropped a hint to the old lady, and I suspect she must have told Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you. We’ve been wondering what made the old lady suddenly start sending an ounce every day, so that’s the reason.” Precious Jade said with a smile,“If she takes it regularly every day, after two or three years her health should be much better.” The maid replied, “She can have some every day here, but where will the money come from to continue the cure when she goes home next year?” Precious Jade starlted, “Who’s going to which home?” She responded, “Your cousin—back to Suzhou.” “Nonsense!” Precious Jade chuckled. “Suzhou may be her hometown, but she came here because there was no one there to look after her after her parents’ death.

On the other hand it would be rather awkward to have to ask Sister Phoenix for it; so I dropped a hint to Grandma, and I rather think that she had a word on the subject with Sister Phoenix. That was what I started explaining. I understand an ounce of bird’s nest is being sent over to you every day now, so that’s all right.” “So it was you who suggested that, was it?” said Nightingale “That was very good of you.

明年回去找谁？可见是扯谎。”紫鹃冷笑道：“你太看小了人。你们贾家独是大族，人口多的；除了你家，别人只得一父一母，房族中真个再无人了不成？我们姑娘来时，原是老太太心疼他年小，虽有叔伯，不如亲父母，故此接来住几年。大了该出阁时，自然要送还林家的，终不成林家女儿在你贾家一世不成？林家虽贫到没饭吃，也是世代书宦人家，断不肯将他家的人丢与亲戚，落的耻笑，所以早则明年春天，迟则秋天，这里纵不送去，林家亦必有人来接的。前日夜里姑娘和我说了，叫我告诉你，将从前小时玩的东西，有他送你的，叫你都打点出来还他；

Whom could she go back to next year? You must be lying.” “What a poor opinion you have of other people!” Zijuan snorted, “I suppose you think yours is the only big family in the world. According to you, I suppose, other people only have fathers and mothers: they couldn't possibly have uncles and aunts on their father's side like you do. Our young lady was brought here for a few years while she was still only a child, because the old lady felt for her and didn't think her uncles could take the place of her parents. But it was only ever her intention to keep her here for a few years. As soon as she's old enough to be married, she'll have to go back to the Lin family. You could hardly expect a Lin family girl to spend the rest of her days among the Merchant family, now could you? Even if the Lins were desperately poor, for generations they've been a family of scholars and officials: they'd never expose themselves to ridicule by abandoning a daughter to relatives. So next spring or next autumn at the latest, even if your family doesn't send her back, the Lins are sure to send to fetch her. The other evening our young lady told me to ask you for all the little gifts and souvenirs she's given you since you were children.“

According to you, I suppose, other people only have fathers and mothers: they couldn't possibly have uncles and aunts on their father's side like you do. Our young lady was brought here for a few years while she was still only a child, because the old lady felt for her and didn't think her uncles could take the place of her parents. But it was only ever her intention to keep her here for a few years. As soon as she's old enough to be married, she'll have to go back to the Lin family. You could hardly expect a Lin family girl to spend the rest of her days among the Merchant family, now could you? Even if the Lins were desperately poor, for generations they've been a family of scholars and officials: they'd never expose themselves to ridicule by abandoning a daughter to relatives. So next spring or next autumn at the latest, even if your family doesn't send her back, the Lins are sure to send to fetch her. The other evening our young lady told me to ask you for all the little gifts and souvenirs she's given you since you were children.--[[User:Liu Yao|Liu Yao]] ([[User talk:Liu Yao|talk]]) 10:25, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

他也将你送他的打点在那里呢。”宝玉听了，便如头顶上响了一个焦雷一般。紫鹃看他怎样回答，等了半天，见他只不作声，才要再问，只见晴雯找来，说：“老太太叫你呢。谁知在这里。”紫鹃笑道：“他这里问姑娘的病症。我告诉了他半日，他只不信。你倒拉他去罢。”说着，自己便走回房去了。晴雯见他呆呆的，一头热汗，满脸紫胀，忙拉他的手一直到怡红院中。袭人见了这般，慌起来了，只说时气所感，热身被风扑了。无奈宝玉发热事犹小可，更觉两个眼珠儿直直的起来；口角边津液流出，皆不知觉；给他个枕头，他便睡下；扶他起来，他便坐着；

And just then Sunny Cloud Formation came up.“so here you are, baoyu!” she cried. “the old lady wants you.”“he’s been inquiring after miss Mascara Jade’s health, and i’ve been reassuring him,” Nightingale remarked. “but he won’t believe me. you’d better take him away.” with that she returned to her room. Sunny Cloud Formation noticed Precious Jade’s distraught look, the hectic flush on his cheeks and the sweat on his forehead. she at once led him by the hand to happy red court where his appearance horrified Aroma, who imagined he must have caught a chill in the wind while overheated. a fever was not too alarming, but his eyes were fixed and staring, saliva was trickling from the corners of his lips, and he seemed in a state of stupefaction. he would lie down if a pillow was put for him, would sit up if pulled,

倒了茶来，他便吃茶。众人见他这样，一时忙乱起来，又不敢造次去回贾母，先要差人去请李嬷嬷来。一时李嬷嬷来了，看了半日：问他几句话，也无回答；用手向他脉上摸了摸，嘴唇人中上着力掐了两下，掐得指印如许来深，竟也不觉疼。李嬷嬷只说了一声：“可了不得了！”“呀”的一声，便搂头放声大哭起来。急得袭人忙拉他说：“你老人家瞧瞧可怕不怕？且告诉我们，去回老太太、太太去。你老人家怎么先哭起来？”李嬷嬷捶床捣枕说：“这可不中用了！我白操了一世心了！”袭人因他年老多知，所以请他来看；

And drink tea if it was brought.1His condition threw them all into a panic, but not daring to report this too hastily to the Lady Dowager they first sent for his old nurse, Nanny Li.Nanny Li, arriving presently, examined Baoyu carefully.When he made no answer to any of her questions she felt his pulse, then pinched his upper lip so hard that her fingers left deep imprints--yet he felt no pain.At that she gave a great cry of despair and, taking him in her arms, started weeping and wailing.Aroma, beside herself with anxiety, tugged imploringly at her sleeve:‘Nannie, Nannie, have another look at him and tell us how serious it is, so that we know what to say to Their Ladyships.Don't just cry!”Nannie Li hammered the bed with her fists:‘It's all up with him, I tell you.A life-time of care gone for nothing!”Aroma and the girls who, whatever else they might think of Nannie Li, respected her age and experience, assumed that she must know what she was talking about.

如今见他这般一说，都信以为实，也哭起来了。晴雯便告诉袭人方才如此这般，袭人听了，便忙到潇湘馆来，见紫鹃正伏侍黛玉吃药，也顾不得什么，便走上来问紫鹃道：“你才和我们宝玉说了些什么话？你瞧瞧他去！你回老太太去，我也不管了！”说着，便坐在椅上。黛玉忽见袭人满面急怒，又有泪痕，举止大变，更不免也着了忙，因问：“怎么了？”袭人定了一回，哭道：“不知紫鹃姑奶奶说了些什么话，那个呆子眼也直了，手脚也冷了，话也不说了，李嬷嬷掐着也不疼了，已死了大半个了！

==英语笔译聂薇 Nie Wei 202170081592==

连李嬷嬷都说不中用了，那里放声大哭，只怕这会子都死了！”黛玉听此言，李嬷嬷乃久经老妪，说不中用了，可知必不中用，“哇”的一声，将所服之药，一口呕出，抖肠搜肺、灸胃扇肝的，哑声大嗽了几阵：一时面红发乱，目肿筋浮，喘的抬不起头来。紫鹃忙上来捶背，黛玉伏枕喘息半晌，推紫鹃道：“你不用捶！你竟拿绳子来勒死我，是正经。”紫鹃哭道：“我并没说什么，不过是说了几句玩话，他就认真了。”袭人道：“你还不知道他那傻子，每每玩话认了真。”黛玉道：“你说了什么话？趁早儿去解说，他只怕就醒过来了。”

Even Nanny Li said there is no cure for him. Just listen to the cries from his room, I’m afraid he has died!” Hearing this, Mascara Jade knew that there is definitely nothing can be done to save him now that the sophisticated Nanny Li said so. The bad news made her vomit out all the medicine she had taken and have a fit of coughing before turning in to a red face and swollen eyes, and the severe gasp made it difficult for her to raise her head. Then Purple Cuckoo came up to thump on her back. After gasping on her pillow for quite a long time, she pushed Purple Cuckoo away and said, “ You don’t need to do that! The first priority for you is to strangle me with a rope!” Then her poor maid cried, “ I said nothing bad. I was just joking, but he took it seriously.” Aroma refuted, “ Don’t you understand that blockhead’s temper? He is always taking jokes seriously.” And Mascara Jade asked, “ What did you say to him? Just go to clarify it to him as soon as possible, maybe there is a possibility that he would come to.”

紫鹃听说，忙下床，同袭人到了怡红院。谁知贾母王夫人等已都在那里了。贾母一见了紫鹃，便眼内出火，骂道：“你这小蹄子，和他说了什么？”紫鹃忙道：“并没敢说什么，不过说几句玩话。”谁知宝玉见了紫鹃，方“嗳呀”了一声，哭出来了。众人一见，都放下心来。贾母便拉住紫鹃，只当他得罪了宝玉，所以拉紫鹃命他赔罪。谁知宝玉一把拉住紫鹃，死也不放，说：“要去连我也带了去。”众人不解，细问起来，方知紫鹃说要回苏州去，一句玩话引出来的。贾母流泪道：“我当有什么要紧大事，原来是这句玩话。”

When hearing what Mascara Jade've just said, Ningtingale jumped out of the bed quickly and headed for the Happy Red Court with Aroma. To their surprise, Grandma Merchant, Lady Wang and others were already there. When at the sight of Ningtingale, Grandma Merchant just abused and shouted at her with great fury, "What did you, such a hussy, say to Precious Jade on earth?" "Nothing but a few jokes", Ningtingale hurriedly responded. And who knows that Precious Jade burst into tears right after sighing with Ah the moment he saw Ningtingale. The crowd were all relieved when they saw that. And then keeping hold of her hands and just thinking she dispeased Precious Jade , Grandma Merchant let Ningtingale to make an apology to him. And everyone didn't expect that Precious Jade grabbed Ningtingale and refused to let her go, saying, "If you go, well then take me with you". Being puzzled, everyone questioned them closely what was going on and then realized that all these were caused by one of Ningtingale' s jokes that she would go back to Suzhou for fun. Then Grandma Merchant said with tears welling up from her eyes, "What a major matter I've just thought, it turns out to this joke originally."

又向紫鹃道：“你这孩子，素日是个伶俐聪敏的，你又知道他有个呆根子，平白的哄他作什么？”薛姨妈劝道：“宝玉本来心实，可巧林姑娘又是从小儿来的，他姊妹两个一处长得这么大，比别的姊妹更不同。这会子热刺刺的说一个去，别说他是个实心的傻孩子，便是冷心肠的大人，也要伤心。这并不是什么大病，老太太和姨太太只管万安，吃一两剂药就好了。”正说着，人回：“林之孝家的，赖大家的，都来瞧哥儿来了。”贾母道：“难为他们想着，叫他们来瞧瞧。”宝玉听了一个“林”字，便满床闹起来，

"You've always been a smart girl." then Grandma Merchant told Nightingale, "But why did you tease him for no reason, knowing that he is such a bullheaded boy?" "Precious Jade is born innocent. It happened that Mascara Jade has come here since she was little, and they are naturally different from other siblings as growing up together. Today he was told that she would go back home in an anxious way, and even an indifferent grown-up will feel sad when hearing that, let alone this simpleminded boy. Grandma and Lady King just rest assured. It's nothing serious, and he will recover with one or two doses of medicine." persuaded Aunt Marshgrass aside.

说：“了不得了，林家的人接他们来了，快打出去罢！”贾母听了，也忙说：“打出去罢。”又忙安慰说：“那不是林家的人。林家的人都死绝了，没人来接他的，你只放心罢。”宝玉哭道：“凭他是谁，除了林妹妹，都不许姓林的！”贾母道：“没姓林的来，凡姓林的都打出去了。”一面吩咐众人：“以后别叫林之孝家的进园来，你们也别说‘林’字。孩子们，你们听了我这一句话罢！”众人忙答应，又不敢笑。一时宝玉又一眼看见了十锦槅子上陈设的一双金西洋自行船，便指着乱说：“那不是接他们来的船来了？湾在那里呢！”

次日又服了王太医药，渐次好了起来。宝玉心下明白，因恐紫鹃回去，倒故意作出佯狂之态。紫鹃自那日也着实后悔，如今日夜辛苦，并没有怨意。袭人等皆心安神定，因向紫鹃笑道：“都是你闹的，还得你来治。也没见我们这位呆子，‘听了风就是雨’，往后怎么好。”暂且按下。且说此时湘云之症已愈，天天过来瞧看，见宝玉明白了，便将他病中狂态形容与他瞧，引得宝玉自己伏枕而笑：原来他起先那样，竟是不知的；如今听人说，还不信。无人时，紫鹃在侧，宝玉又拉他的手，问道：“你为什么唬我？”

After taking the medication prescribed by Doctor King the next day, Precious Jade was on the road to recovery. Conscious of that, Precious Jade pretended to be ill all the same for fear of losing Nightingale, who regretted her lies about Mascara Jade the other day and worked day and night without grudges taking care of him. Servants of Aroma and others now felt much relieved at the scene, smiling "Now let’s see who’s the victim of her own scheming! Poor young master to have believed what you said.

紫鹃道：“不过是哄你玩的，你就认真了。”宝玉道：“你说得那样有情有理，如何是玩话呢？”紫鹃笑道：“那些玩话，都是我编的。林家实没了人口；纵有，也是极远的族中，也都不在苏州住，各省流寓不定。纵有人来接，老太太也必不放去的。”宝玉道：“便老太太放去，我也不依！”紫鹃笑道：“果真的不依？只怕是口里的话。你如今也大了，连亲也定下了，过二三年再娶了亲，你眼里还有谁了？”宝玉听了，又惊问：“谁定了亲，定了谁？”紫鹃笑道：“年里我就听见老太太说要定了琴姑娘呢；不然，那么疼他？”

“I only did it for fun,” Nightingale replied.“But you took it seriously.”“That was no joke,”said Precious Jade. “It was too well-reasoned.Nightingale laughed. ”I made it all up.There is no people in the Forest family.If there is, they're very, very distant relations, and not in SuZhou, either, but scattered all over the place, in different provinces.Even if one of them asked for her, the old lady would never let her go.”“Even if the old lady would let her go, I wouldn't.”said Precious Jade.”I wonder,“said Nightingale.“That's just talk, I'm afraid.You're growing up now and already engaged; in a couple of years you'll be marrying, and then you'll forget other people.”Precious Jade heard her with astonishment. “Betrothed?To whom?””Just before New Year I heard Old Lady say that she was betrothing you to Miss Harp. That's why she makes so much of her, isn't it?”Nightingale replied.

“I only did it for fun,” Nightingale replied.“But you took it seriously.”“You made it sound so convincing, how was I to know it was just a joke?”Precious Jade retorted. Nightingale laughed. “I made it all up. There is no people in the Forest family. If there is, they're very, very distant relations, and not in SuZhou, either, but scattered all over the place, in different provinces. Even if one of them asked for her, the old lady would never let her go.”“Even if the old lady would let her go, I wouldn't.”said Precious Jade.”I wonder,“said Nightingale.“That's just talk, I'm afraid. You're growing up now and already engaged; in a couple of years you'll be marrying, and then you'll forget other people.”Precious Jade heard her with astonishment. “Betrothed? To whom?””Just before New Year I heard Old Lady say that she was betrothing you to Miss Harp. That's why she makes so much of her, isn't it?”Nightingale replied.--[[User:Xie Xiaoying|Xie Xiaoying]] ([[User talk:Xie Xiaoying|talk]]) 01:59, 24 May 2022 (UTC)

宝玉笑道：“人人只说我傻，你比我更傻！不过是句玩话，他已经许给梅翰林家了。果然定下了他，我还是这个形景了？先是我发誓赌咒，砸这劳什子，你都没劝过吗？我病的刚刚的这几日才好了，你又来怄我。”一面说，一面咬牙切齿的，又说道：“我只愿这会子立刻我死了，把心迸出来，你们瞧见了，然后连皮带骨，一概都化成一股灰，再化成一股烟，一阵大风，吹得四面八方，都登时散了，这才好！”一面说，一面又滚下泪来。紫鹃忙上来握他的嘴，替他擦眼泪，又忙笑解说道：“你不用着急。这原是我心里着急，故来试你。”

Precious Jade laughed.“People may call me crazy, but you're even crazier! That was just a joke. She's already engaged to the son of Academician Mei. If I were engaged to her, would I be in this state? Didn't you plead with me and say I was mad when I swore that oath and wanted to smash that silly jade? Now you've come to provoke me again just as I'm getting better.”Through clenched teeth he added.“I only wish I could die this very minute and tear out my heart to show you. Then all the rest of me, skin and bones, could be turned into ashes. No, ashes still have form better be turned into smoke. But smoke still congeals and can be seen by men it would have to be scattered in a flash, by a great wind, to the four quarters. That would be a good death.”Tears were running down his cheeks as he spoke. Nightingale hastily put her hand to his mouth, then wiped away his tears.“You needn't worry,”she urged.“I was putting you to the test because I was worried.”

宝玉听了，更又咤异，问道：“你又着什么急？”紫鹃笑道：“你知道，我并不是林家的人，我也和袭人鸳鸯是一伙的，偏把我给了林姑娘使。偏生他又和我极好，比他苏州带来的还好十倍，一时一刻，我们两个离不开。我如今心里却愁他倘或要去了，我必要跟了他去的。我是合家在这里，我若不去，辜负了我们素日的情长；若去，又弃了本家。所以我疑惑，故说出这谎话来问你，谁知你就傻闹起来。”宝玉笑道：“原来是你愁这个，所以你是傻子。从此后再别愁了。我告诉你一句打趸儿的话：活着，咱们一处活着；不活着，咱们一处化灰，化烟。如何？”

Precious Jade asked in surprise，“You worried? Why?”“You know I don’t belong to the Forest family. Like Aroma and Mandarin Duck, I was given to Miss Forest. She treats me ten times better than her own maids brought from Suzhou; we can’t be seperated for a single moment. I’m worried now because, if she leaves, I shall have to go with her; but my whole family’s here. If I don’t go, I’ll be unworthy of all her goodness; if I do, I shall have to abandon my own family. That’s why, in my dilemma, I told you that lie to see how you felt about it. How was I know that you’d take it so hard?”“So that’s what’s worrying you,”Precious Jade smiled. “What a goose you are! Well, set your heart at rest. Let me just put it in a nutshell for you. If we live, we shall live together; and if we die, we shall turn into ashes and smoke together. How do you think？”

紫鹃听了，心下暗暗筹画。忽有人回：“环爷兰哥儿问候。”宝玉道：“就说难为他们，我才睡了，不必进来。”婆子答应去了。紫鹃笑道：“你也好了，该放我回去瞧瞧我们那一个去了。”宝玉道：“正是这话。我昨夜就要叫你去的，偏又忘了。我已经大好了，你就去罢。”紫鹃听说，方打迭叠铺盖妆奁之类。宝玉笑道：“我看见你文具里头有两三面镜子，你把那面小菱花的给我留下罢。我搁在枕头旁边，照着好睡，明日出门带着也轻巧。”紫鹃听说，只得与他留下，先命人将东西送过去，然后别了众人，自回潇湘馆来。
Juan listened, and secretly planned a plan. Suddenly someone replied, "Greetings from Huan Ye Lan." Bao Yu said, "I just said it was difficult for them, I just went to bed, and I don't have to come in." The old woman agreed to go. Zijuan smiled and said, "You're fine too, it's time to let me go back and see who we are." Baoyu said, "That's exactly what I said. I was going to ask you to go last night, but I forgot. I'm already fine. If you're done, you just go." Zijuan heard that Fang was putting on layers of bedding and make-up. Baoyu smiled and said, "I saw two or three mirrors in your stationery. You can leave the one with the little ling flower to me. I put it next to the pillow and sleep well. It's easy to take it with you when you go out tomorrow." I heard that I had to stay with him, order someone to send things over, then say goodbye to everyone, and return to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

黛玉近日闻得宝玉如此形景，未免又添些病症，多哭几场。今儿紫鹃来了，问其原故，已知大愈，仍遣琥珀去伏侍贾母。夜间人静后，紫鹃已宽衣卧下之时，悄向黛玉笑道：“宝玉的心倒实，听见咱们去，就那样起来。”黛玉不答。紫鹃停了半晌，自言自语的说道：“一动不如一静，我们这里就算好人家，别的都容易，最难得的是从小儿一处长大，脾气情性都彼此知道的了。”黛玉啐道：“你这几天还不乏，趁这会子不歇一歇，还嚼什么蛆！”紫鹃笑道：“倒不是白嚼蛆，我倒是一片真心为姑娘。

Hearing Precious Jade had a bad time, Mascara Jade cried a few more times and was more weak in illness. Today Nightingale came and asked the reason, she got to know that Mascara Jade was much better now, but she still send Amber to serve Merchant Grandma. At tranquil night, when Nightingale was undressed and lying down, she smiled at Mascara Jade and said, "Precious Jade is very sincere. He still struggled to get up when he heard we came." Mascara Jade did not answer. Nightingale stopped for a long time and said to herself, "It is better to keep quiet than to move. We consider ourselves a good family here. Everything else is easy. What is the rarest is that we grew up together in one place, so we know each other’s temperament well.” Mascara Jade scolded her, "Are you not tired in these days? Just take a break now and stop talking the nonsense!" Nightingale said with a smile, "What I am talking about is not nonsense and I have your best interests at heart.”

替你愁了这几年了：无父母无兄弟，谁是知疼着热的人？趁早儿，老太太还明白硬朗的时节，作定了大事要紧。俗语说，‘老健春寒秋后热。’倘或老太太一时有个好歹，那时虽也完事，只怕耽误了时光，还不得趁心如意呢。公子王孙虽多，那一个不是三房五妾，今儿朝东，明儿朝西？娶一个天仙来，也不过三夜五夜，也就撂在脖子后头了，甚至于怜新弃旧，反目成仇的。若娘家有人有势的，还好些；若姑娘这样的人，有老太太一日还好，一日若没了老太太，也只是凭人去欺负罢了。所以说，拿主意要紧。

I have been worried about you for several years. You have no parents or brothers to care for you. So it is important to settle you marriage affair in a good time, while Grandma Merchant is still healthy and clear-headed. As an old saying goes, “The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.” If something happens to Grandma Merchant, you marriage will be delayed or you will marry a people you don not wish. There are many young lordlings, but they both want to have many wives and concubines. There affection is not constant and may change from one to another. Even though they get a girl as a fairy as his wife, they may cast her off after several days. Someone may treat her as an enemy for the sake of another new concubine. If her family is powerful and wealthy, it may be not so bad; but for someone like you, you life will be good as long as Grandma Merchant still lives. However, someday once she pass away, you will live under others’ treatment. Therefore, it is important to make up your mind.

“It isn’t nonsense. I was thinking of you. I’ve felt worried for you all these years with no father, mother or brothers to care for you. The important thing is to settle the main affair of your life in good time, while the old lady’s still clear-headed and healthy. The proverb says, ‘The healthiest old people last as long as a chilly spring or a hot autumn.’ If anything should happen to the old lady your marriage might be delayed, or else not turn out in the way you hoped. There’s no lack of young lordlings, but they all want three wives and five concubines and their affections change from one day to the next. They may bring home a wife as lovely as a fairy, yet after four or five nights they cast her off, treating her like an enemy for the sake of a concubine or a slave girl. If her family’s large and powerful, that’s not so bad; and for someone like you, miss, so long as the old lady lives you’ll be all right. Once she’s gone, you’ll have to put up with ill treatment.

“You’ve sense enough to understand the saying, ‘The thousand taels of gold are easier come by than an understanding heart.” “The girl’s crazy!” exclaimed Mascara Jade. “A few days away, and you’ve suddenly changed into a different person. Tomorrow I shall ask the old lady to take you back. I no longer dare keep you.” “I meant well,” was the smiling answer. “I just wanted you to look out for yourself, not to do anything wrong. What good will it do if you report me to the old lady and get me into trouble?” With that Nightingale closed her eyes. Although Mascara Jade had spoken so sharply, this talk had distressed her. After Nightingale went to sleep she wept all night, no dozing off until dawn. The next morning she found it an effort to wash herself, rinse her mouth and swallow her bird’s-nest broth. Then the Lady Merchant and others called to see her and urged her to take better care of herself.

Now that it was Aunt Marshgrass's birthday, everyone,beginning with Grandma Merchant had a congratulatory gift。And Mascara Jade had to prepare two-color needles and threads to send. On the same day, a small drama was also scheduled, and Grandma Merchant and Lady King were invited to watch. It was only Baoyu and Daiyu who didn't arrive. At the end of the night, Grandma Merchant and the others paid a visit to them before they went back to the room. The next day, Aunt Marshgrass's family ordered Tadpole Marshgrass to accompany the families to drink for a day, and it took three or four days to complete. Because Aunt Marshgrass thought that Cave Cloud Marshgrass was born elegant and stable in a poor family. Aunt Marshgrass wanted her to be married to Dragon Marshgrass. Because Dragon Marshgrass had done a lot of extravagance in the past, and was afraid of trampling on the daughter of others, so she was hesitating. Then she suddenly recalled that Tadpole Marshgrass was not yet married, and seeing that the two of them were just a couple born to be set up. Then she went to plan it with Sister Phoenix.

Sister Phoenix laughed, "You know that my mother-in-low has an eccentric disposition, so we need discuss about this matter slowly." When Grandma Merchant stopped by Siter Phoenix's house, she said to Grand Merchant, "Aunt Marshgrass wants you to do her a favor, but she feels embarrassed to tell you." Grand Merchant asked, "What is it?" Sister Phoenix told her the matter of the Marshgrass Family seeking a marriage alliance. Hearing this, Grand Merchant laughed, "What a wonderful thing it is! Your mother-in-law will agree when I tell her about it." After Grandma Merchant went back to her room, she ordered a servant to invite Lady City to come right now. She told Lady City about the marriage and guaranteed for it. Lady City thought to herself: "The Marshgrass Family has a good foundation and is rich now. And Tadpole Marshgrass is also a man of striking appearance." With the guarantee from Grandma Merchant, she agreed to the marriage between Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud City. Grandma Merchant was very happy and invited Aunt Marshgrass to come. And there came naturally lots of self-depreciatory words between them.

邢夫人方罢。那薛蝌岫烟二人，前次途中，曾有一面之遇，大约二人心中皆如意，只是那岫烟未免比先时拘泥了些，不好与宝钗姐妹共处闲语；又兼湘云是个爱取笑的，更觉不好意思。幸他是个知书达礼的，虽有女儿，还不是那种佯羞诈鬼、一味轻薄造作之辈。宝钗自那日见他起，想他家业贫寒；二则别人的父母皆是年高有德之人，独他的父母偏是酒糟透了的人，于女儿分中平常；邢夫人也不过是脸面之情，亦非真心疼爱；且岫烟为人雅重，迎春是个老实人，连他自己尚未照管齐全，如何能照管到他身上，

Lady City then relented. Tadpole Marshgrass and Cave Cloud Marshgrass had met before in one of their trips. They both were satisfied with each other. It was just that Cave Cloud was shier than the last time and didn't feel relaxed to chat with Precious Hairpin and other ladies. More than that, Fragrant-cloud History loved cracking jokes, which made her felt more uncomfortable. Luckily, she was highly cultured and stepped in propriety. Though a lady, he was not the kind that would cheat or flirt with others. Since the day Precious Hairpin met her, Precious Hairpin knew that she lived in poverty. Also, others parents were all aged and virtuous but hers were bad, which made her unique among all the ladies. Lady City's concern were out of courtesy rather than sincerity. Cave Cloud were elegant and Welcome-Spring were honest. They couldn't even take good care of themselves, how could they concern her.

凡闺阁中家常一应需用之物，或有亏乏，无人照管，他又不与人张口。宝钗倒暗中每相体贴接济，也不敢与邢夫人知道，也恐怕是多心闲话之故。如今却是众人意料之外奇缘作成这门亲事。岫烟心中先取中宝钗，有时仍与宝钗闲话，宝钗仍以姊妹相呼。这日宝钗因来瞧黛玉，恰值岫烟也来瞧黛玉，二人在半路相遇。宝钗含笑唤他到跟前，二人同走。至一块石壁后，宝钗笑问他：“这天还冷的很，你怎么倒全换了夹的了？”岫烟见问，低头不答。宝钗便知道又有了原故，因又笑问道：“必定是这个月的月钱又没得？凤姐姐如今也这样没心没计了。”
Whenever Cave Cloud ran short of any daily necessities, there was no one to see to it, and she was too unassuming to mention it. Precious Hairpin Marshgrass accordingly often helped her in secret, not letting Lady City know for fear of giving offence, with the result that now that this unexpected match had been arranged Cave Cloud felt even more closely bound to Precious Hairpin than to Tadpole Marshgrass. She often went to chat with her, and Precious Hairpin continued to address her as "cousin."
One day Precious Hairpin set out to call on Mascara Jade. Happening to meet Cave Cloud on the way, she beckoned her with a smile and they walked on together. As they skirted the back of a rockery, Precious Hairpin inquired: "Why have you changed out of padded clothes into lined ones, when the weather is still so cold?" Cave Cloud hung her head and said nothing.
Sensing some reason for this Precious Hairpin continued, "Don't tell me this month's allowance was held up again? Cousin Phoenix really is growing rather thoughtless."

岫烟道：“他倒想着不错日子给，因姑妈打发人和我说道：一个月用不了二两银子，叫我省一两给爹妈送出去；要使什么，横竖有二姐姐的东西，能着些搭着就使了。姐姐想：二姐姐也是个老实人，也不大留心。我使他的东西，他虽不说什么，他那些妈妈丫头，那一个是省事的？那一个是嘴里不尖的？我虽在那屋里，却不敢很使唤他们，过三天五天，我倒得拿出钱来，给他们打酒买点心吃才好。因此一月二两银子还不够使，如今又去了一两。前日我悄悄的把棉衣服叫人当了几吊钱盘缠。”宝钗听了，愁叹道：“偏梅家又合家在任上，后年才进来。
"She issued it on the right date," rejoined Cave Cloud. "But my aunt sent to tell me I shouldn't need two taels a month and must save one for my parents. She said if I was short of anything I could borrow from Spring Pleasure and make do. But, you see,Spring Pleasure is a simple soul who doesn't always think. She wouldn't mind my using her things, but those maids and nannies of hers are all troublemakers — you know what sharp tongues they have. Though I'm staying there, I dare not order them about; infact, every few days I have to spend money on wine and cakes for them. l can't manage even on two taels a month, and now it's been cut to one. So the other day I got someone, on the sly, to pawn my padded clothes for a few strings of cash."
Hearing this, Precious Hairpin frowned and sighed in sympathy. "It's too bad that the Mei family have all gone to the new post and won't be back in the capital till the year after next," she said.

若是在这里，琴儿过去了，好再商议你这事。离了这里就完了。如今不完了他妹妹的事，也断不敢先娶亲的。如今倒是一件难事。再迟两年，我又怕你熬煎出病来。等我和妈妈再商议。”宝钗又指他裙上一个璧玉珮问道：“这是谁给你的？”岫烟道：“这是三姐姐给的。”宝钗点头道：“他见人人皆有，独你一个没有，怕人笑话，故此送一个。这是他聪明细致之处。”岫烟又问：“姐姐此时那里去？”宝钗道：“我到潇湘馆去。你且回去，把那当票子叫丫头送来我那里，悄悄的取出来，晚上再悄悄的送给你去，早晚好穿；
If they were here,we could arrange Precious String'wedding and then yours. Once you leave here you'll be all right. The trouble is that Tadpole Marshgrass won't consider getting married before his younge sister; yet if you have to put up with two more years of this,I'm afraid it may ruin your health. I must talk to my mother and see what can be done. Then Baochai pointed at the green jade pendant hanging from her skirt,"Who gave you that?" "It's a present from Cousin Spring-seeking." Precious Hairpin nodded. "She must have noticed that you were the only one with no jade to wear,so to stop people laughing at you she gave you this. It shows how thoughtful and observant she is. Cave Cloud assented then asked her where she was going. "To Bamboo Lodge," Precious Hairpin told her slip back and send a maid over to our place with the pawn ticket. I'll have the clothes redeemed quietly and sent to you this evening,so that you have something warm to wear.--[[User:Mahzad Heydarian|Mahzad Heydarian]] ([[User talk:Mahzad Heydarian|talk]]) 06:02, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

不然，风闪着还了得！但不知当在那里了？”岫烟道：“叫做什么恒舒典，是鼓楼西大街的。”宝钗笑道：“这闹在一家去了！伙计们倘或知道了，好说‘人没过来，衣裳先过来’了。”岫烟听说，便知是他家的本钱，也不答，红了脸一笑，二人走开。宝钗就往潇湘馆来。恰正值他母亲也来瞧黛玉，正说闲话呢。宝钗笑道：“妈妈多早晚来的？我竟不知道。”薛姨妈道：“我这几天忙，总没来瞧瞧宝玉和他。所以今日瞧他人，都也好了。”黛玉忙让宝钗坐了，因向宝钗道：“天下的事，真是人想不到的。拿着姨妈和大舅母说起，怎么又作一门亲家。”薛姨妈道：“我的儿，你们女孩儿家那里知道？
Otherwise, the wind is still shining! But don't know where it is? "Xiu Yan said: "What is it called Heng Shu Dian, it's from Gulou West Street. " Baochai smiled and said: "This is a family trouble! Guys, if they know, it's easier to say that "the clothes will come first before the people come". When Xiuyan heard it, she knew that it was his family's capital, so she didn't answer, she blushed and the two walked away. Baochai went to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. It was just when his mother came to see Daiyu and was gossiping. Baochai smiled and said, "How sooner or later did my mother come? I didn't know. Aunt Xue said, "I've been busy these days, so I never came to see Baoyu and him." So looking at others today, it's all good. Daiyu hurriedly asked Baochai to sit down, and Yin said to Baochai, "The affairs of the world are really unexpected. Talking about my aunt, how could they be in-laws again. Aunt Xue said, "My son, where do you girls know?"

自古道：‘千里姻缘一线牵。’管姻缘的有一
位月下老人，预先注定，暗里只用一根红丝，把这两个人的脚绊住，凭你两家那
怕隔着海国呢，若有姻缘的，终久有机会作了夫妇。这一件事，都是出人意料之
外。凭父母本人都愿意了，或是年年在一处，已为是定了的亲事，若月下老人
不用红线拴的，再不能到一处。比如你姐妹两个的婚姻，此刻也不知在眼前，也
不知在山南海北呢！”宝钗道：“惟有妈妈说动话拉上我们！”一面说，一面伏在
母亲怀里，笑说：“咱们走罢。”黛玉就笑道：“你瞧！这么大了，离了姨妈，他就
是个最老到的；见了姨妈，他就撒娇儿。”

薛姨妈将手摩弄着宝钗，向黛玉叹道：
“你这姐姐，就和凤哥儿在老太太跟前一样：有了正经事，就有话和他商量；没有
了事，幸亏他开我的心。我见了他这样，有多少愁不散的。”黛玉听说，流泪叹道：“他偏在这里这样，分明是气我没娘的人，故意来形
容我！”宝钗笑道：“妈妈，你瞧他这轻狂样儿，倒说我撒娇儿！”薛姨妈道：“也怨
不得他伤心，可怜没父母，到底没个亲人。”又摩娑黛玉，笑道：“好孩子，别哭。
你见我疼你姐姐，你伤心，你知我心里更疼你呢！你姐姐虽没了父亲，到底有我，
有亲哥哥，这就比你强了。我常和你姐姐说，心里很疼你，只是外头不好带出来

你这里人多嘴杂，说好话的人少，说歹话的人多：不说你无依靠，为人做人
可配人疼；只说我们看老太太疼你了，我们也‘洑上水’去了。”黛玉笑道：“姨妈
既这么说，我明日就认姨妈做娘，姨妈若是弃嫌，便是假意疼我。”薛姨妈道：
“你不厌我，就认了。”宝钗忙道：“认不得的。”黛玉道：“怎么认不得？”宝钗笑
道：“我且问你，我哥哥还没定亲事，为什么反将邢妹妹先说与我兄弟了？是什
么道理？”黛玉道：“他不在家，或是属相生日不对，所以先说与兄弟了。”宝钗笑
道：“不是这样。我哥哥已经相准了，只等来家就放定，也不必提出人来，我说
你认不得娘，你细想去！”说着，便和他母亲挤眼儿发笑。

黛玉听了，便一头伏在薛姨妈身上，说道：“姨妈不打他，我不依！”薛姨妈
搂着他笑道：“你别信你姐姐的话，他是和玩你呢。”宝钗笑道：“真个妈妈明儿
和老太太求了，聘作媳妇，岂不比外头寻的好？”黛玉便拢上来要抓他，口内笑
说：“你越发疯了。”薛姨妈忙笑劝，用手分开方罢。又向宝钗道：“连邢女儿我
还怕你哥哥遭踏了他，所以给你兄弟，别说这孩子，我也断不肯给他。前日老太
太因要把你妹妹说给宝玉，偏生又有了人家；不然，倒是门子好亲事。前日我说定
了邢姑娘，老太太还取笑说：‘我原要说他的人，谁知他的人没到手，倒被他说了
我们一个去了。’

Eight taels are available per person,” she answered. Seeking Spring disapproved, “Young men get their monthly payment in a unit of the house. For Ring Merchant, his mother draws two taels. For Precious Jade, Aroma draws another two taels on behalf of the old lady.

兰哥儿是大奶奶屋里领：怎么学里每人多这八两？原来上学去的是为这八两银子！从今日起，把这一项蠲了。平儿回去，告诉你奶奶，说我的话，把这一条务必免了。”平儿笑道：“早就该免。旧年奶奶原说要免的，因年下忙，就忘了。”那媳妇只得答应着去了。就有大观园中媳妇捧了饭盒子来，侍书素云早已抬过一张小饭桌来，平儿也忙着上菜。探春笑道：“你说完了话，干你的去罢，在这里又忙什么？”

"His monthly payment was from Lady Plum. How could it be, that everyone got eight taels for attending the private school? No wonder they're willing to go there, just for the eight-teal silver! From today on, remove this payment from list. Patience, you go back to tell your mistress, Lady Splendid Phoenix, to cut this sum of money down, which is my suggestion." Patience smiled and said: "It's high time we should cut it down. Last year our mistress has expressed this idea. But due to the advent of the New Year, she had so much work to do that it slipped her memory." Then the servant responded obediently and went away. In a little while, there came another female servant from the Garden, with a mess tin in her arm. Candida, a book server, has already carried a small dining table, and Patience helped to serve dishes. Seeking-Spring said with amusement: "What you need do is merely to send my word to your mistress. Who orders you to serve the dishes? You such an industrious bee!"

But if they don't use you as examples, they may be accused of bias, of not daring to touch those backed by Their Ladyships and just picking on the weak instead. Wait and see. They're even countermanding a few of the Second Mistress' rulings too — that's the only way to stop gossip."
Autumn Vein stuck out her tongue in dismay. "Thank goodness you came here. Sister Patience! You've saved me from a snubbing. I'll go straight back and tell them." then she left. At this point, Precious Hairpin's meal arrived and Patience sent it into the room to seve her.

众媳妇皆在廊下静候，里头只有他们紧跟常侍的丫鬟伺候，别人一概不敢擅入。这些媳妇们
都悄悄的议论说：“大家省事罢！别安着没良心的主意。连吴大娘才都讨了没
意思，咱们又是什么有脸的！”都一边悄议，等饭完回事。只觉里面鸦雀无闻，并
不闻碗箸之响。一时，只见一个丫头将帘栊高揭，又有两个将桌抬出。茶房内有三个丫
鬟，捧着三个沐盆儿。见饭桌已出，三人便进去了。

All the Madams were waiting on the porch with their close maids, and no one else dared to enter. Madams all whispered, "Don't make trouble and scheme conscienceless ideas. Even Woman Wu suffered setbacks, let alone us!" They all talked quietly, waiting for the meal to finish. They only felt that there was as still, and heard nothing of the sound of tableware. A maid lifted the curtain high for a moment, and two more carried the table out. Three servant girls in the tea house hold three washbowls. As the tables out, the three went in.--[[User:Li Simin|Li Simin]] ([[User talk:Li Simin|talk]]) 03:46, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

After a while, someone brought out a basin and spittoon from the room. Scribe, Candida and Oriole each loaded three cups of tea with lids on a tray and went into the house. After three people came out, Scribe bade small servant girls way, "You are here to wait upon, wait for us to finish the meal again for you. Don't be lazy." At last the daughters-in-law became more relaxed and less impatient. Seeking-Spring Merchant calmed down and said to Patience, "I have something important to discuss with you and Old Lady for a long time. Now I remember it. Come here as soon as you finish your dinner. Precious Hairpin is here, too. Wait until the four of us discuss it first, and then carefully ask Old Lady if it is possible." Patience agreed and went back.

Then, slowly, the matrons made their reports in turn, not presuming to behave with their previous impertinence.

Sister Phoenix asked: "Why did you go so long?" Patience smiled and told her what had happened in detail. “Good, good, good! What a splendid Seeking-Spring!” Sister Phoenix laughed. “It's a pity she wasn't the mistress’ own daughter." "Grandma is confused too. She may not be the mistress’ own daughter. Will anyone dare to look down upon her? She has received the same respect as the other daughters of the house." said Patience. Sister Phoenix sighed, "How do you know?

Ring's marriage cost three thousand silver. If that's not enough, a little saving in that matter could fill the gap. When Grandma's thing are done, all is set. Only trivial matters would cost. Several thousand. If you save more, it would be enough. I just feared that other accident would come out and that would be troublesome. Let's don't worry that much.

Miss Yingchun is even less useful, and she doesn't belong to this house. Miss Xichun are small, and Lan and Huan'er are even more like a little frozen cat with burning hair, just looking for a warm stove or a Kang to lie on. How the same mother could produce two totally different children, which I can never understand. In addition, Miss Forest and Miss Precious are capable, but they are all relatives, and they are not expected to involve in our affairs. Moreover, one of them is like a beautiful lamp, and a puff of wind can blow it down; the other has made up her mind, "Do not open her mouth about things beyond her business, you can only get a shake or an 'I don't know when asking her". So it is also very difficult to ask her to do anything.

不知那里弄些来，不过是个名儿，其实使不得，依然还得现买。
As for the two taels of the girls every month, it has been not for these, but for the grandma and ladies who was in charge at the moment, either not at home or not free, and the girls occasionally asked for money so as not to find someone else. It's just for fear that the girls will be wronged so that the two taels was given.

As for the two taels for the girls every month, it was not for buying those things actually, but for the reason that sometimes the ladies who was in charge of the family was out or busy with handling other affairs, then with this money, the girls don’t need to find someone else if they happen to need money for some thing. It's just for fear that the girls will be wronged. Now given the fact that half of our sisters in the house are now using money to buy these things. I wondered whether the comprador was playing trick on us, and what he bought was not the real deal." Seeking-Spring and Silk Plum said with a smile, " You can see it, too.

就用二两银子，
另叫别人的奶妈子的弟兄儿子买来，方才使得，若使官中的人去，依然是那一样
的，不知他们是什么法子？”平儿便笑道：“买办买的是那样，别人买了好的来，买
办的也不依他，又说他使坏心，要夺他的买办了。所以他们宁可得罪了里头，不
肯得罪了外头办事的。若是姑娘们使了奶妈子们，他们也就不敢闲话了。”

Just ask some relative of other’s nanny to spend two silver buying it for the girls. If we ask those officially working for the family, they just get us the same thing, then what’s the point of doing so?” Patience smiled and explained, “ It’s true that the compradors just get us the same thing, but they won’t allow others to do so even though the latter can purchase things of higher quality, and they will accuse them of taking away their job. That’s why the women would rather offend us than those compradors. But if it is the ladies that asked the nannies to handle those affairs, they won’t dare to complain about this.” Therefore Spring-seeker said, “ That’s why I feel uncomfortable about this. We wasted two gadgets for nothing and get half the amount of things we need. Why don’t we just abolish the spending on the comprador every month? That’s the first thing I would like to deal with.

Wearing a smile on face, Patience responded, "Not half as big as ours, moreover, speaking of the trees and flowers in our gardens respectively, hers is far less than ours." Then Seeking-Spring said, "When chit chatting with those girls in her family, I came to know that in addition to the flowers they planted, and the vegetables and fish they eat produced form this garden, this garden has been put put to contract for someone, thus there is enough money left over for two hundred taels silver at the end of the the year.

"I've read it before." Seeking-Spring smiled, "But the words in that essay are nothing but empty talk aiming to simply encourage people, and how can they tally with the actual situation?" "Did you just say that even what Zhu Zi wrote is empty talk?" replied Precious Hairpin, "Every word in his essay is true to the fact.

After this joking they got down to business. Let's say for the sake of argument that our garden is only twice as big as theirs. Doubling the income they get from theirs would mean a clear profit of four hundred taels per annum. Of course, it would be petty and unworthy of our family to concentrate solely now on making money. But if a couple of women are assigned to take charge, all the valuable things here won't be squandered it's a shame to let them go to waste. I think we ought to pick out a few experienced trustworthy old women from among the ones who work in the Garden - women who know something about gardening already - and put the upkeep of the Garden into their hands. We needn't ask them to pay us rent; all we need ask them for is an annual share of the produce.

These women，summoned and told the plan in outline by Silk Plum, agreed to it readily.“Just leave that bamboo plot to me,”said one. “In a year’s time there’ll be another plot. Then, apart from supplying the household with bamboo shoots, I can hand in some money too.”

Precious Hairpin laughed and said: “Those who are excited by lucky profit at the beginning will eventually slack off; Those who talk big are just greedy for profit, without any real ability.” Having heard this, Seeking-Spring nodded in praise and pointed out certain persons to the book for the three of them to read. Then Patience hurried to fetch writing brushes and inkstone. Three of them said: “The old lady Zhu is a careful and reliable person. Moreover, her husband and son have been in charge of cleaning up the bamboos for generations and as a result, all of bamboos’ management should have been taken over by them now. Another one is old lady Tian, who is originally a farmer. In the Rice Fragrant Village, as soon as there are vegetables, fruits, rice and wheat and the like, though they have no need to work and manage in a meticulous manner, they would grow better if old lady Tian could cultivate them carefully on schedule.”

Then she selected some names from the list for the other three people’s consideration.

探春又笑道：“可惜蘅芜苑和怡红院这
两处大地方，竟没有出息之物！”李纨忙笑道：“蘅芜苑更利害！如今香料铺
并大市大庙卖的各处香料香草儿，都不是这些东西？算起来，比别的利息更大！
怡红院别说别的，单只说春夏二季的玫瑰花，共下多少花朵儿？还有一带篱笆上
的蔷薇、月季、宝相、金银花、藤花，这几色草花，干了卖到茶叶铺药铺去，也值好
些钱。”探春笑道：“原来如此，只是弄香草的没有在行的人。”

Seeking-Spring said: “What a pity! There is nothing that can make a profit in Happy Red Court and Asarum Garden.” “You are wrong,” said Silk Plum. “Asarum Garden can make a greater profit. It is full of herbs and spices. We can sold them to perfumers as well as big markets and temple fairs. I think those will bring in greater profit. As for Happy Red Court, not to mention anything else, just think how many roses it has in spring and summer. Also, the fence is covered with lots of roses, monthly roses, honeysuckles and other kinds of flowers. We can dry them and then sell them to tea shops and pharmacies to make money.” “That’s it,” said Seeking-Spring with a smile. “But there is nobody who are proficient in such things.”

“What a pity there’s nothing we can turn to profit in Happy Red Court and Alpinia Park, large as they both are.’ remarked Seeking-Spring Merchant. “Why, Alpinia Park’s even better,” declared Li Wan. “Isn’t it full of the spices and herbs you find sold by perfumers, as well as at all the big markets and temple fairs? I reckon those will bring in the biggest profit of the lot. As for Happy Red Court, not to mention anything else, just think how many roses it has all spring and summer. That fence there is cov�ered with rambler roses and monthly-roses, as well as honeysuckle and other flowers, all of which fetch a good price in tea-shops and pharma�cies when they’re dried.” “Is that so?” asked Seeking-Spring with a smile. “We’re no one, though, who understands such things.”--[[User:Zhang Jiaoling|Zhang Jiaoling]] ([[User talk:Zhang Jiaoling|talk]]) 07:45, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

“The mother of Oriole who works for Miss Precious Hairpin does.” Patience informed them. “Have you forgotten that time she gathered and dried some sprigs to make me baskets?” “I’ve just been singing your praises, yet now you’re laying a trap for me, “protested Precious Hairpin Marshgrass jokingly. “What do you mean?” asked the other three in surprise. “This is out of the question,” she answered. “All your attendants here with nothing to do will certainly think badly of me if I bring in someone else. Let me suggest another woman instead: Tealeaf’s mother, old Mrs. Ye, in Happy Red Court. She’s an honest old soul and on good terms with Oriole’s mother.”

不如把这事交与叶妈，他有不知的，不必咱们说给他，就找
莺儿的娘去商量了。那怕叶妈全不管，竟交与那一个，这是他们私情儿，有人说

平儿都道：“是极。”探春笑道：“虽如此，只怕他们见利忘义呢。”平儿笑道：“不
相干。前日莺儿还认了叶妈做干娘，请吃饭吃酒，两家和厚得很呢。”探春听了，

It is better to leave this matter to Aunt Ye. There is something she does not know, and we do not need to tell her. We will find Maid Oriole's mother to discuss.

一时婆子们来回：“大夫已去。”将药方送上去，三人看了，一面遣人送出外

Then Seeking Spring smiled, "I think of one thing: if we cast accounts in the end of the year, the left money has to be handed in to the stewards.

你们年终去归账，他还不捉弄你们等什么？再者，这一年间，管什么的，主子有一全分，他们就得半分，这是每常的旧规，人所共知的。如今这园子里是我的新创，竟别入他们的手，每年归账，竟归到里头来才好。”宝钗笑道：“依我说，里头也不用归账，这个多了，那个少了，倒多了事。不如问他们谁领这一分的，他就揽一宗事去。不过是园里的人动用。我替你们算出来了，有限的几宗事，不过是头油、胭脂、香、纸，每一位姑娘，几个丫头，都是有定例的；
Thus they’re bound to squeeze you if you go to them to settle your annual accounts. Why, every year the steward managing each property or estate gets one-third of the proceeds. That’s how it’s always been; it’s an open secret. That’s apart from what else they filch. Our new management of the Garden shouldn’t go through their hands at all. So come to us at the end of the year to settle your accounts.'‘I don’t think accounts need be turned in at all,'said Precious Hairpin Marshgrass .'Comparisons are so invidious. Better let the woman entrusted with one job be responsible for the expenses of that place. I’ve worked it out and it doesn’t come to much, just what’s needed for hair-oil, rouge, powder, scent and toilet-paper for the young mistresses and their maids.

再者各处笤帚、簸箕、掸子，并大小禽鸟、鹿、兔吃的粮食。不过这几样。
都是他们包了去，不用账房去领钱。你算算，就省下多少来？”平儿笑道：“这几
宗虽小，一年通共算了，也省得下四百两银子。”
宝钗笑道：“却又来！一年四百，二年八百两，打租的房子也能多买几间，
薄沙地也可以添几亩了。虽然还有敷余，但他们既辛苦了一年，也要叫他们剩
些，粘补自家。虽是兴利节用为纲，然亦不可太啬。总再省上二三百银子，失了

所以如此一行，外头账房里一年少出四五百银子，也不觉得很
艰啬了，他们里头却也得些小补；这些没营生的妈妈们，也宽裕了；园子里花木，
也可以每年滋长繁盛；如此你们也得了可使之物，这庶几不失大体。若一味要
省时，那里不搜寻出几个钱来。凡有些余利的，一概入了官中，那时里外怨声载
道，岂不失了你们这样人家的大体？如今这园里几十个老妈妈们，若只给了这
个，那剩的也必抱怨不公；

In this way, the accountants could add four or five hundred stale of silver and they could be more ample in the future. Those women without proper income could live a better life. The vegetation in the yard could be lusher. Also, you obtained things you can avail of, and won't lose face. If you are so stubborn to save that petty time, the money you arduously collected would be savaged by government. At that time, all would be grumbling. Isn't that lose your face? Now the dozens of women in the yard wouldn't grumble for what you give.

年竟除了这个之外，他每人不论有余无余，只叫他拿出若干吊钱来，大家凑齐，单散与这些园中的妈妈们。他们虽不料理这些，却日夜也自在园中照看；当差之人，关门闭户、起早睡晚、大雨大雪，姑娘们出入，抬轿子，撑船，拉冰床，一应粗重活计，都是他们的差使：一年在园里辛苦到头，这园内既有出息，也是分内该沾带些的。
For them simply to supply those few items, as I suggested, is letting them off too lightly. On top of that I think they should also give a few strings of cash each year, regardless of how much they have left; and this combined sum can be distributed to the other nannies in the Garden. After all, even if they have no special assignments they work here day and night from early to late, running errands and locking or unlocking gates, no matter how bad the weather. They carry the young ladies' sedan-chairs, punt boats, and draw sleighs in winter——in fact, they do all the hard work the whole year round in the Garden. So they should have a small share in the profits too.

"There's another small thing, and I will put it more bluntly. If you just better yourselves without letting the others share in your good fortune, even if they don't complain openly they're bound to feel resentful; and then if they pick more fruit or flowers ostensibly for their mistresses but actually for themselves, there'll be nobody to whom you can complain. But if they benefit too, they can keep an eye on things for you when you're busy."
The women were delighted with this proposal, which meant they would neither be controlled by the stewards nor have to settle accounts with Splendid Phonenix — all they needed to do was to pay a few extra strings of cash every year.
"That suits us!" they cried. "This is better than being squeezed by those stewards outside and having to pay them."

那不得管地的，听了每年终无故得钱，也都喜欢起来，口内说：“他们辛苦收拾，是该剩些钱粘补的；我们怎么好‘稳吃三注’的？”宝钗笑道：“妈妈们也别推辞了，这原是分内应当的。你们只要日夜辛苦些，别躲懒纵放人吃酒赌钱就是了；不然，我也不该管这事，你们也知道，我姨娘亲口嘱托我三五回，说：“大奶奶如今又不得闲儿，别的姑娘又小，托我照看照看。我若不依，分明是叫姨娘操心。
Those with no special assignments were also pleased to learn that they would be getting something for nothing. "If they do the hard work they deserve to make a little money,"they said. "How can we sit idle and rake in a profit too?" "You nannies needn’t decline,"replied Precious Hairpin with a smile. "This is as it should be. Just work hard and don't slack or allow any gambling or drinking.
