第四十回 史太君两宴大观园 金鸳鸯三宣牙牌令话说宝玉听了，忙进来看时，只见琥珀站在屏风跟前，说：“快去罢，立等你说话呢。”宝玉来至上房，只见贾母正和王夫人众姐妹商议给史湘云还席。宝 玉因说：“我有个主意：既没有外客，吃的东西也别定了样数，谁素日爱吃的，拣样儿做几样。也不必按桌席，每人跟前摆一张高几，各人爱吃的东西两样，再一个十锦攒心盒子，自斟壶，岂不别致？”贾母听了，说：“很是。”即命人传与厨房：“明日就拣我们爱吃的东西做了，接着人数，再装了盒子来。早饭也摆在园里吃。”

--Bian Wangqian (talk) 11:53, 27 February 2022 (UTC) Chapter Forty Great Lord History Treated Grand View Garden with Two Banquets, Mandarin Duck Gold Hosted a Game of Ivory Blocks Three Times After Precious Jade received the message and rushed to go through the front door, also the second gate leading to the main rooms, of the house where his grandmother resided, seeing Amber standing before the screen greeting, “Come in, please. They are waiting for you.” And Precious Jade walked into the main room, hearing Grandma Merchant, Lady King and other sisters were discussing the preparation of a return banquet for Fragrant-cloud History. So, he advised, “I’m coming up with an idea. That is, now that we have no guests for treatment here, there is no need to cook too many dishes. Just some dishes everyone likes for daily meals. Neither is to count the number of seats. Just leave a standing teapoy before everyone and offer some dishes that he loves and an assorted box for sweets, and allow the present to pour the fine liquor by themselves. Isn’t it a special return banquet?” “Exactly!” Grandma Merchant commended in agreement, and immediately ordered to deliver this advice to the mess cooks in the kitchen saying, “It’s enough to cook some dishes that we like and prepare for assorted boxes based on the attendance. Besides, we also have breakfast in the Garden.”

商议之间，早又掌灯，一夕无话。次日清早起来，可喜这日天气清朗。李纨清晨起来，看着老婆子丫头们扫那些落叶，并擦抹桌椅，预备茶酒器皿；只见丰儿带了刘老老板儿进来，说：“大奶奶倒忙的紧。”李纨笑道：“我说你昨日去不成，只忙着要去。”刘老老笑道：“老太太留下我，叫我也热闹一天去。”丰儿拿了几把大小钥匙，说道：“我们奶奶说了：外头的高几恐不够使，不如开了楼，把那收的拿下来使一天罢。奶奶原该亲自来的，因和太太说话呢，请大奶奶开了，带着人搬罢。”

By the time their conversation was over, candle lamps were lighted. Then they slept silently all that night. Next morning, they woke up to a fine day. Slik Plum rose in early morning to supervise servants sweeping fallen leaves, wiping tables and chairs, and preparing tea cups and wine glasses. While she was doing her intendance job, Abundance, along with Granny Liu and Ban-er arrived. “How busy you are, Madam Plum.” said Granny Liu. Silk Plum replied “Although you insisted to go back, I knew you were not able to.” Granny Liu laughed: “Grandma Merchant keeps me one more day to let me enjoy myself.” Abundance brought some keys and said: “The Grandma thought there may be no enough tea tables. We can unlock the attic and fetch some reserved in it to use for a day. She wanted to come here by herself, but she’s talking with Lady King. So, would you please open the attic, and have some people bring those down?”

李氏便命索云接了钥匙，又命婆子出去，把二门上小厮叫几个来，李氏站在大观楼下，往上看着，命人上去开了缀锦阁，一张一张的往下抬。小厮、老婆子、丫头一齐动手，抬了二十多张下来。李纨道：“好生着，别慌慌张张鬼赶着似的，仔细碰了牙子。”又回头向刘老老笑道：“老老也上去瞧瞧。”刘老老听说，巴不得一声儿，拉了板儿登梯上去，进里面，只见乌压压的，堆着些围屏、桌、椅、大小花灯之类，虽不大认得，只见五彩炫耀，各有奇妙。念了几声佛，便下来了。 Mrs Li ordered Locked Cloud to take the key and her Granny to go out and call some of the boys from the Chuihua Door.Standing downstairs,she looked up and ordered people to go up and open the Brokatbestückter Turm.Furniture were taken downstairs one by one.Servants and all mistress here took more than twenty furniture downstairs together.Silk Plum said:"be careful things in your hand!Don’t break anything!"And then he turned back and smiled at granny Liu,said："you can go up and have a look."At the moment granny Liu heard what he said,she wished she can take the ladder to go up in one second.As she came in,she saw screens,tables,chairs,large and small lanterns piled in the dark environment.Although she didn’t recognize them,their colorful appearances make them fantastic.After a fer chants of Buddha,she came down.

然后锁上门，一齐才下来。李纨道：“恐怕老太太高兴，越发把船上划子、篙、桨、遮阳幔子，都搬了下来预备着。”众人答应，又复开了门，色色的搬了下来。命小厮传驾娘们，到船坞里撑出两只船来。 正乱着，只见贾母已带了一群人进来了，李纨忙迎上去，笑道：“老太太高兴，倒进来了；我只当还没梳头呢，才掐了菊花要送去。”一面说，一面碧月早已捧过一个大荷叶式的翡翠盘子来，里面养着各色折枝菊花，贾母便拣了一朵大红的簪了鬓上；因回头看见了刘老老，忙笑道：“过来带花儿。”

They went down together until the door was locked.Li Wan said,"Perhaps as feeling delighted,Grandma Merchant would have a stronger yearn for taking out poles，paddles and shade curtains on the boat for preparation."All people agreed with him and then opened the door again to move out the things.Li commanded servants to call ladies to produce two boats in shipyard.When all was in a mess,Grandma Merchant led a group of people into.Li rushed up to her and laughed,"You unexpectedly came in with happiness.I thought your hair was not yet combed,so I picked up a chrysanthemum to present you."Meanwhile,Bi Yue had already brought a jade plate in the shape of large lotus leaf where various folded chrysanthemums grew.Among those flowers,Grandma Merchant picked a red one to adorn her hair clasp;after a back sight of Grandma Liu,then nervously laughed,"come here to wear those flowers."

一语未完，凤姐儿便拉过刘老老来，笑道：“让我打扮你。”说着，把一盘子花，横三竖四的插了一头。贾母和众人笑的不住。刘老老笑道：“我这头也不知修了什么福，今儿这样体面起来。”众人笑道：“你还不拔下来摔到他脸上呢，把你打扮的成了老妖精了。”刘老老笑道：“我虽老了，年轻时也风流，爱个花粉儿的，今儿老风流才好。” 说话间，已来至沁芳亭上，丫鬟们抱了一个大锦褥子来，铺在栏杆榻板上， 贾母倚栏坐下，命刘老老也坐在旁边，因问他：“这园子好不好？”

Before Grandma Merchant could finish her words,Sister Phoenix pulled Granny Liu over and grinned,"Let me gussy you up." As she said, she stuck a tray of flowers in Granny Liu's hair in disarray.Grandma Merchant and the crowd could not stop laughing, while Granny Liu said with a smile,"I don't know what kind of blessing I have cultivated in this head, but I am so decent today." The crowed laughed,"Why don't you put them off and fling them in her face? You are dressed up as an old leprechaun!" Granny Liu smiled," I am old, but I was romantic when I was young and used to love making up.It's good to be an old romantic now." While talking, they came to the Seeping Fragrance Pavilion, and the servant girls carried a big brocade mattress and spread it on the railing-shaped couch board. Grandma Merchant leaned against the railings and sat down. She ordered Granny Liu to sit beside her,asking her,"Is the garden good?"

revision： They went down together until the door was locked.Silk Plum said,"Perhaps as feeling delighted,Grandma Merchant would have a stronger yearn for go boating. Hurry to take out poles，paddles and shade curtains on the boat for preparation."All people agreed with him and then opened the door again to move out the things. And he also commanded servants to call barge-women to push two boats from the shipyard.When all was in a mess,Grandma Merchant came in followed by a group of people. Silk Plum rushed up to her and laughed,"I didn’t expect you would have an interest to came in. I thought you did not dress up yet, so I picked up some chrysanthemums to present you."Meanwhile,Greenmoon had already brought a jade plate in the shape of large lotus leaf where placed various branch-broken chrysanthemums.Among those flowers,Grandma Merchant picked a red one to adorn her hair clasp. As she looked back and caught sight of Granny Liu,she grinned,"come here to wear those flowers." --He Lina (talk) 07:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

刘老老念佛说道：“我们乡下人，到了年下，都上城来买画儿贴，时常闲了，大家都说：‘怎么得也到画儿上逛逛。’想着那个画儿也不过是假的，那里有这个真地方？谁知我今儿进这园里一瞧，竟比那画儿还强十倍！怎么得有人也照着这个园子画一张，我带了家去给他们见见，死了也得好处。”贾母听说，指着惜春笑道：“你瞧我这个小孙女儿，他就会画；等明儿叫他画一张如何？”刘老老听了，喜的忙跑过 来，拉着惜春说道：“我的姑娘！你这么大年纪儿，又这么个好模样儿，还有这个能干，必是个神仙托生的罢？”

Granny Liu said while praying to Buddha:" At the end of a year, we countrymen used to come to the town to buy some paintings for decoration. In our spare time, we always said that we have to come to visit such a place drawn in the paintings. But we all know that the scenery in the paintings is not real. How could such a wonderful place exist in the world. However, after strolling around the garden, I come to realize that the scenery here is much more beautiful than in the paintings. There must be someone who can draw a picture out of the garden for me to take to my fellow countryman. We would die for enjoying the view happily." After hearing these remarks, Grandma Merchant pointed to Spring-cherish and said with smile on her face:" You may want to see my little granddaughter who is good at painting. How about asking her to draw a picture for you later？" Hearing these, Granny Liu was so happy that she ran over Spring-cherish and yanked her and said:"My good girl！You must’ve been born from the god for being beautiful as well as capable at such a young age."

贾母少歇一回，自然领着刘老老都见识见识，先到了潇湘馆。一进门，只见两边翠竹夹路，土地下苍苔布满，中间羊肠一条石子漫的路。刘老老让出来与贾母众人走，自己却走土地。琥珀拉他道：“老老，你上来走，仔细青苔滑倒了。”刘老老道：“不相干的，我们走熟了的，姑娘们只管走罢。可惜你们的绣鞋，必沾了泥。”他只顾上头和人说话，不防脚底下果踩滑了，“咕咚”一交跌倒，众人都拍手呵呵的笑。贾母笑骂道：“小蹄子们！还不搀起来，只站着笑。”

After a short rest Grandma Merchant wanted to show the Garden to Granny Liu. The first place was the Bamboo Lodge, Black Jade’s house. The green bamboos surrounded them as they entered the gate and moss covered the ground. A narrow path made of stones in the middle led to the house. Granny Liu stepped aside to let Grandma Merchant and others walk on the cobbled path while she walked on the slippery ground. Amber pulled her with one hand and said, "Granny, walk on the road. There is moss below. Be careful." Granny Liu replied, “ Never mind. I’m used to it. Go ahead, young ladies. Be careful with your embroidered shoes. Don't get them covered in mud.” Tilting her head and talking to people, she didn't expect her feet to slip, which caused the crowd to laugh and clap their hands. “You wretches, go and help her up. Don’t just stand and laugh.” Grandma Merchant urged.

说话时，刘老老已爬了起来，自己也笑了，说道：“才说嘴，就打了嘴。”贾母问他：“可扭了腰了不曾？叫丫头们捶一捶。”刘老老道：“那里说的我这么姣嫩了，那一天不跌两个子？都要捶起来，还了得呢。”紫鹃早打起湘帘，贾母等进来坐下，黛玉亲自用小茶盘捧了一盖碗茶来，奉与贾母。王夫人道：“我们不吃茶，姑娘不用倒了。”林黛玉听说，便命丫头把自己窗下常坐的一张椅子挪到下手，请王夫人坐了。刘老老因见窗下案上设着笔砚，又见书架上磊着满满的书，刘老老道：“过必定是那位哥儿的书房了？”

英语笔译 202170081573 黎溢佳 女

贾母笑指黛玉道：“这是我这外孙女儿的屋子。”刘老老留神打量了林黛玉一番，方笑道：“这那里象个小姐的绣房？竟比那上等的书房还好。”贾母因问：“宝玉怎么不见？”众丫头们答道：“在池子里船上呢。”贾母道：“谁又预备下船了？”李纨忙回说：“才开楼拿的。我恐怕老太太高兴，就预备下了。”贾母听了，方欲说话时，有人回说：“姨太太来了。”贾母等刚站起来，只见薛姨妈早进来了，一面归坐，笑道：“今儿老太太高兴，这早晚就来了。”贾母笑道：“我才说，来迟了的要罚他，不想姨太太就来迟了。”说笑一回。

Grandma Merchant explained and pointed to Mascara Jade Forest smilingly: “That is my granddaughter's room." Nanny Liu looked Mascara Jade Forest up and down, than smiled: " A young lady's room？How could it be much better than a first class study!” “Why Precious Jade isn’t here?” asked by Grandma Merchant. “He’s in the boat,on the pond.”waiting-maids answered.“Who is also ready to take a boat tour?”Grandma Merchant asked. Li Wan answered:“The building was open just now so they took them out. As far as I am concerned, you might have the feeling to have fun, so I arranged.” After listening to it, Grandma Merchant was about to say something, but someone reported to her: “Aunt Marshgrass is coming.” When they stood up, Aunt Marshgrass had already come. While taking a seat, she smiled:“ Grandma Merchant must be very happy to come that early.” “I just said, the late one will be punished. No wonder Aunt arrived late!” Grandma Merchant laughed.--Li Yijia (talk) 12:52, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

贾母因见窗上纱颜色旧了，便和王夫人说道：“这个纱新糊上好看，过了后来就不翠了。这个院子里头又没有个桃杏树，这竹子已是绿的，再拿这绿纱糊上，反不配。我记得咱们先有四五样颜色糊窗的纱呢，明儿给他把这窗上的换了。”凤姐儿忙道：“昨儿我开库房，看见大板箱里还有好几匹银红蝉翼纱，也有各样折枝花样的，也有流云蝙蝠花样的，也有百蝶穿花花样的，颜色又鲜，纱又轻软，我竟没见这个样的。拿了两匹出来，傲两床绵纱被，想来一定是好的。”贾母听了笑道：“呸！人人都说你没有不经过不见过的，连这个纱还不能认得呢，明儿还说嘴。”

The Grandma Merchant noticed that the gauze on the window had faded, then she said to Lady King, “ this gauze looked very nice when it was new, but it soon lost its jade green color. Anyway, there are no peach or apricot trees in the courtyard and the bamboos are also green, so the green gauze is not suitable here. I remember that we used to have four or five different colors of window gauze, tomorrow we shall change the color for her. Splendid Phoenix King said, “ When I opened the storeroom yesterday, I saw several cicada-wing gauzes in silver pink in a big wooden chest. There are some other different designs, broken branches, floating clouds and bats, butterflies and flowers. All these gauzes are so soft in fresh colors. I’ve never seen anything like that. So I took two rolls out to make two quilts, and I’m sure it must be lovely quilts. Grandma Merchant laughed and said, “Bah! Everyone says that there’s nothing you haven't seen or done, but you can't even recognize this gauze. You must stop bragging in future." --Li Simin (talk) 02:55, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

薛姨妈等都笑说：“凭他怎么经过见过，如何敢比老太太呢。老太太何不教导了他，连我们也听听。”凤姐儿也笑说：“好祖宗！教给我罢。”贾母笑向薛姨妈众人道：“那个纱，比你们的年纪还大呢。怪不得他认做蝉翼纱，原也有些像。不知道的，都认做蝉翼纱。正经名字叫‘软烟罗’。”凤姐儿道：“这个名儿也好听，只是我这么大了，纱罗也见过几百样，从没听见过这个名色。”贾母笑道：“你能活了多大？见过几样东西？就说嘴来了。那个软烟罗只有四样颜色：一样雨过天青，一样秋香色，一样松绿的，一样就是银红的。

英语笔译 李婷 Li Ting 202170081576

若是做了帐子，糊了窗屉，远远的看着，就似烟雾一样，所以叫做‘软烟罗’，那银红的又叫做‘霞影纱’。如今上用的府纱，也没有这样软厚轻密的了。”薛姨妈笑道：“别说风丫头没见，连我也没听见过。”凤姐儿一面说话，早命人取了一匹来了，贾母说：“可不是这个！先时原不过是糊窗屉，后来我们拿这个做被做帐子试试，也竟好。明日就找出几匹来，拿银红的替他糊窗子。”凤姐答应着。众人看了，都称赞不已。刘老老也觑着眼看，口里不住的念佛，说道：“我们想做衣裳也不能，拿着糊窗子岂不可惜？”

“It’s because, when made into curtains or stuck on window frames, it looks from far like smoke or mist, that it is called ‘soft smoke’ silk. The silvery-red is also called ‘sunset shadow’ gauze. Among the classy gauzes used in our place today, there are none so supple and thick, light and closely-woven as this!” “Not to speak of that girl Phoenix not having seen it, even I have never heard anything of it before.” Aunt Marshgrass laughed. While the conversation proceeded, Sister Phoenix soon directed a servant to fetch a roll. Dowager lady Jia exclaimed “This is it! At first, we simply had it stuck on the window frames, but we subsequently tried to use it for covers and curtains, and really they were splendid! So you had better tomorrow find several rolls, and take some of the silvery-red one to stick on the windows for her.” Sister Phoenix took her orders. When these ladies saw it, they all praised it. Granny Liu also squinted at it, chanting Amitabha Buddha, and said, “We couldn’t even afford to make clothes out of such stuff; and won’t it be a pity to use it for sticking on windows?”--Li Ting (talk) 06:36, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

英语笔译 李欣 Li Xin 202170081577

贾母道：“倒是做衣裳不好看。”凤姐忙把自己身上穿的一件大红绵纱袄的襟子拉出来，向贾母薛姨蚂道：“看我的这袄儿。”贾母薛姨妈都说：“这也是上好的了，这是如今上用内造的，竟比不上这个。”凤姐几道：“这个薄片子还说是内造上用呢，竟连这个官用的也比不上了。”贾母道：“再找一找，只怕还有；若有时，都拿出来，送这刘亲家两匹。有雨过天青的，我做一个帐子挂上。剩的配上里子，做些个夹背心子给丫头们穿，白收着霉坏了。”凤姐儿忙答应了，仍命人送去。 贾母便笑道：“这屋里窄，再往别处逛去罢。”

英语笔译 李颖 Li Ying 202170081578

刘老老笑道：“人人都说，‘大家子住大房’，昨儿见了老太太正房，配上大箱、大柜、大桌子、大床，果然威武。那柜子比我们一间房子还大，还高。怪道后院子里有个梯子，我想又不上房晒东西，预备这梯子做什么？后来我想起来，定是为开顶柜取放东西，离了那梯子怎么得上去呢？如今又见了这小屋子，更比大的越发齐整了；满屋里东西都只好看，都可不知叫什么。我越看越舍不得离了这里。”凤姐道：“还有好的呢，我都带你去瞧瞧。”说着，一径离了潇湘馆，远远望见池中一群人在那里撑船。 Granny Liu praised: "Everyone says, 'The rich lives in great house'. Yesterday, I saw your room, equipped with big cases, large cabinets, large tables, and a big bed. It is really powerful. The cabinets are more bigger and taller than our whole house. The strange thing is that there is a ladder in the back yard. I don’t sun things in the roof. What do I do with this ladder? Later, I remembered that it must be for the cabinet to pick and place things. So I got away from the ladder,how can I go up? Now that I have seen this small room, it is even more tidy than that bigger one; everything in the house looks good, but I don’t know what it is called. The more I look at it, the more I wouldn’t willing to leave here.”Splendid Phoenix King said: “There are better places than this, I will take you to see them." As she said that, they all left the Bamboo Lodge and saw a group of people in the pool punting boats far away .--Li Ying (talk) 04:48, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

贾母道：“他们既备下船，咱们就坐一回。”说着，向紫菱洲蓼溆一带走来。未至池前，只见几个婆子手里都捧着一色摄丝戗金五彩大盒子走来，凤姐忙问王夫人：“早饭在那里摆？”王夫人道：“问老太太在那里就在那里罢了。”贾母听说，便回头说：“你三妹妹那里好，你就带了人摆去，我们从这里坐了船去。”凤姐儿听说，便回身同了李纨、探春、鸳鸯、琥珀带着端饭的人等，抄着近路到了秋爽斋，就在晓翠堂上调开桌案。鸳鸯笑道：“天天咱们说外头老爷们吃酒吃饭，都有个凄趣儿的，拿他取笑儿。咱们今儿也得一个女清客了。”

英语笔译 梁思婷 Liang Siting 202170081581

李纨是个厚道人，听了不解；凤姐儿却知说的是刘老老了，也笑说道：“咱们今儿就拿他取个笑儿。”二人便如此这般商议。李纨笑劝道：“你们一点好事也不做，又不是个小孩儿，还这么淘气，仔细老太太说。”鸳鸯笑道：“很不与大奶奶相干，有我呢。” 正说着，只见贾母等来了，各自随便坐下，先有丫鬟端过两盘茶来。大家吃毕，凤姐手里拿着西洋布手巾，裹着一把乌木兰镶银箸，按席摆下。贾母因说：“把那一张小楠木桌子抬过来，让刘亲家挨着我这边坐。”众人听说，忙抬了过来。

英语笔译 廖诗韵 Liao Shiyun 202170081582

凤姐一面递眼色与鸳鸯，鸳鸯便忙拉刘老老出去，悄悄的嘱咐了刘老老一席话，又说：“这是我们家的规矩，若错了，我们就笑话呢。”调停已毕，然后归坐。薛姨妈是吃过饭来的，不吃，只坐在一边吃茶。贾母带着宝玉、湘云、黛玉、宝钗一桌，王夫人带着迎春姐妹三人一桌，刘老老挨着贾母一桌。贾母素日吃饭，皆有小丫鬟在旁边拿着漱盂、麈尾、巾帕之物，如今鸳鸯是不当这差的了，今日偏接过麈尾来拂着。丫鬟们知他要搬弄刘老老，便躲开让他。鸳鸯一面侍立，一面递眼色。刘老老道：“姑娘放心。”

Hearing her order, Splendid Phoenix King cast Mandarin Duck a meaningful glance. Then the maid led Granny Liu aside and whispered instructions to her. She added “This is the costume of our house. If you do not obey it, we will laugh at you.” After that, they were all seated. Aunt Marshgrass, having breakfast already, did not eat anything and just sat aside drinking tea. Grandma Merchant sat with Precious Jade Merchant, Fragrant-cloud History, Mascara Jade Forest, and Precious Hairpin Marshgrass at one table. Lady King sat with Spring Pleasure Merchant, Seeking-Spring Merchant, and Cherishing Spring Merchant at one table, while Granny Liu sat at the table next to Grandma Merchant. Usually, when Grandma Merchant had meals, younger maids would hold her rinse bowl, whisk, and handkerchief and stand by her side. Today, however it was not her duty, Mandarin Duck still held the whisk herself. And the other maids, knowing that she meant to play a trick on Granny Liu, made way for her. Mandarin Duck, standing there, tipped Granny Liu the wink. "Don't worry, miss," the old woman answered.--Liao Shiyun (talk) 03:32, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

那刘老老入了坐，拿起箸来，沉甸甸的不伏手。原是凤姐和鸳鸯商议定了，单拿了一双老年四楞象牙镶金的筷子与刘老老。刘老老见了，说道：“这叉巴子，比我们那里的铁掀还沉，那里拿的动他？”说的众人都笑起来。只见一个媳妇端了一个盒子站在当地，一个丫鬟上来揭去盒盖，里面盛着两碗菜，李纨端了一碗放在贾母桌上，凤姐偏拣了一碗鸽子蛋放在刘老老桌上。贾母这边说声“请”，刘老老便站起身来，高声说道：“老刘，老刘，食量大如牛，吃个老母猪不抬头！”自己却鼓着腮帮子不语。

英语笔译 刘乐乐 Liu Lele 202170081584

众人先还发怔，后来一听，上上下下都哈哈大笑起来。湘云掌不住，一口茶都喷了出来。林黛玉笑岔了气，伏着桌子只叫“嗳哟！”宝玉滚到贾母怀里，贾母笑的搂着叫“心肝”。王夫人笑的用手指着凤姐儿，却说不出话来。薛姨妈也掌不住，口里的茶喷了探春一裙子。探春手里的茶碗都合在迎春身上。惜春离了坐位，拉着他的奶母，叫“揉一揉肠子”。地下无一个不弯腰屈背，也有躲出去蹲着笑去的，也有忍着笑上来替他姐妹换衣裳的。独有凤姐鸳鸯二人掌着，还只管让刘老老。

英语笔译 刘双英 Liu Shuangying 202170081585

刘老老拿起箸来，只觉不听使，又道：“这里的鸡儿也俊，下的这蛋也小巧，怪俊的。我且得一个儿。”众人方住了笑，听见这话，又笑起来。贾母笑的眼泪出来，只忍不住，琥珀在后捶着。贾母笑道：“这定是凤丫头促狭鬼儿闹的！快别信他的话了。”那刘老老正夸鸡蛋小巧，凤姐儿笑道：“一两银子一个呢，你快尝尝罢，冷了就不好吃了。”刘老老便伸筷子要夹，那里夹的起来？满碗里闹了一阵，好容易撮起一个来，才伸着脖子要吃，偏又滑下来，滚在地下，忙放下筷子，要亲自去拣，早有地下的人拣了出去了。

Granny Liu picked up chopsticks, finding it’s hard to control them, and said: “The hens not only have good appearances, but also lay tiny and good-looking eggs. I’d like to eat one.” After listening to what she said, the crowd began to laugh again. Grandma Merchant couldn’t help laughing while the maid Amber was giving a pound on her back. Grandmother Jia laughed: “That must be a trick done by Splendid Phoenix King! Don’t believe what she said.” While Granny Liu was praising the tininess of the eggs, Splendid Phoenix King laughed: “One egg costs one tael, Hurry up! It won’t taste as good when cold.” Granny Liu started to pick one egg with chopsticks, but can it be done so easily? Taking great efforts to catch one from the bowl, Granny Liu extended her neck to eat, whereas, it merely slipped down to earth. Granny Liu quickly put down chopsticks and prepared to pick the egg by herself only to find it had already been picked up by the servant. --Liu Shuangying (talk) 04:43, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

刘老老叹道：“一两银子也没听见个响声儿就没了。”众人已没心吃饭，都看着他取笑。贾母又说：“谁这会子又把那个筷子拿了出来，又不请客摆大筵席。都是凤丫头支使的，还不换了呢。”地下的人原不 曾预备这牙箸，本是凤姐同鸳鸯拿了来的，听如此说，忙收了过去，也照样换上一双乌木镶银的。刘老老道：“去了金的，又是银的，到底不及俺们那个伏手。”凤姐儿道：“菜里若有毒，这银子下去了就试的出来。”刘老老道：“这个菜里有毒，我们那些都成了砒霜了。那怕毒死了，也要吃尽了。” "Alas, a silver was gone without a sound!" the old woman, Granny Liu heaved a sigh. The others stopped eating and all looked at her and laughed. "Who gave her this kind of chopsticks? This is not a formal banquet." Grandma Merchant required, "All are minx Splendid Phoenix King commanded, gave her another pair!" It was indeed that Splendid Phoenix King and Mandarin Duck, not the maids, brought this pair of ivory chopsticks. The maids quickly took it away, and presented a pair of ebony chopsticks inlaid with silver. "Gone with the gold, while come with the silver. However, both of them are not as handy as the ones I get used to." Granny Liu said. Splendid Phoenix King explained, "With silver on it, if there is poison in the dishes, the chopsticks will show it." Granny Liu answered, "Poison? If there is any poison in this dish, then my usual dishes are arsenic. Even if it is toxic, I will finish it."--Liu Ting (talk) 11:05, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

贾母见他如此有趣，吃的又香甜，把自己的菜也都端过来与他吃。又命一个老嬷嬷来，将各样的菜给板儿夹在碗上。一时吃毕，贾母等都往探春卧室中去闲话，这里收拾残桌，又放了一桌。刘老老看着李纨与凤姐儿对坐着吃饭，叹道：“别怕罢了，我只爱你们家这行事。怪道说‘礼出大家’。”凤姐儿忙笑道：“你可别多心，才刚不过大家取乐儿。”一言未了，鸳鸯也进来笑道：“老老别恼，我给你老人家赔个不是。”刘老老笑道：“姑娘说那里话？咱们哄着老太太开个心儿，可有什么恼的！你先嘱咐我，我就明白了，不过大家取个笑儿。我要心里恼，也就不说了。”

Grandma Merchant saw her such an interesting woman, enjoying her food so much, so she moved her dishes to her and ate together with her. Then she called an old wet nurse to pick up various dishes to the bowls. After finishing meals, Grandma Merchant and other people all went to Seeking-Spring’s bedroom to have a talk. Finished meals were cleared away and new dishes were arranged here. Seeing Silk Plum and Sister Phoenix having meals, sitting on opposite, Granny Liu said, “whatever, I only like the way you guys act. As the saying goes, ‘etiquette originates from great families.’” Upon hearing this, Sister Phoenix said with smile, “you don’t have to think too much. We just told jokes.” Following her words, Mandarin Duck walked in and said, “Granny, please don’t be angry. I apologize to you for that.” Granny Liu laughed and replied, “you are too polite. We played jokes to make Grandma Merchant happy, it’s not annoying at all! You told me in advance, and I knew it was just a joke. If I felt angry, I would not talk about it.”

Revision："Alas, a silver piece was cost without buying anything!"Granny Liu heaved a sigh. The others all stopped eating and looked at her, laughing. "Who gave her this kind of chopsticks? This is not a formal banquet." Grandma Merchant ordered, "All were commanded by minx Splendid Phoenix King. Give her another pair!" It was indeed that Splendid Phoenix King and Mandarin Duck, not the maids, took this pair of ivory chopsticks out. Upon hearing, the maids quickly took it away, and presented a pair of ebony chopsticks inlaid with silver. "Gone with the gold, while here comes the silver. However, both of them are not as handy as the ones I get used to." Granny Liu said. Splendid Phoenix King explained, "With silver on it, if the dishes are poisonous, the chopsticks will show it." Granny Liu answered, "Poison? If there is any poison in this dish, then the dishes I’ve had are arsenic. Even if it is toxic, I will finish it."--Liu Yao (talk) 14:50, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

鸳鸯便骂人：“为什么不倒茶给老老吃？”刘老老忙道：“才刚那个嫂子倒了茶来，我吃过了，姑娘也该用饭了。”凤姐儿便拉鸳鸯坐下道：“你和我们吃罢，省的回来又闹。”鸳鸯便坐下了，婆子们添上碗箸来，三人吃毕。刘老老笑道：“我看你们这些人，都只吃这一点儿就完了，亏你们也不饿。怪道风儿都吹的倒。”鸳鸯便问：“今儿剩的不少，都那里去了？”婆子们道：“都还没散呢，在这里等着，一齐散与他们吃。”鸳鸯道：“他们吃不了这些，挑两碗给二奶奶屋里平丫头进去。”凤姐道：“他早吃了饭了，不用给他。”鸳鸯道：“他吃不了，喂你的猫。”

婆子听了，忙拣了两样，拿盒子进去。鸳鸯道：“素云那里去了？”李纨道：“他们都在这里一处吃，又找他做什么？”鸳鸯道：“这就罢了。”凤姐道：“袭人不在这里，你倒是叫人送两样给他去。”鸳鸯听说，便命人也送两样去。鸳鸯又问婆子们：“回来吃酒的攒盒，可装上了？”婆子道：“想必还得一会子。”鸳鸯道：“催着些儿。”婆子答应了。凤姐等来至探春房中，只见他娘儿们正说笑。探春素喜阔朗，这三间屋子并不曾隔断，当地放着一张花梨大理石大案，案上磊着各种名人法帖，并数十方宝砚，各色笔筒，笔海内插的笔如树林一般。 On hearing that, the Granny moved up to pick two kinds of dishes into box and take it to Patience. Mandarin Duck said: “Where does Candida go?”Silk Plum said: “They are all eating here, what are you looking for her for?”Mandarin Duck said: “Well, it's okay” Splendid Phoenix King said: “Aroma is not here, you also should ask someone to send her two kinds.”When she heard that, Mandarin Duck ordered someone to send two kinds of dishes to her as well. Mandarin Duck also asked the Granny: " Is the collecting box for banquet filled well ?" The Granny said, "I think it will take a while." Mandarin Duck said: "Hurry up a little." The Granny agreed. When Splendid Phoenix King came to Seeking-Spring Merchant 's room, she saw her laughing with her grandma. Seeking-Spring Merchant always likes something wide and bright so that the three rooms has not been partitioned with a large rosewood marble table in which there are a variety of celebrity posters, and dozens of precious ink stone, various colors of pen containers and numerous ink brushes.--Ma Yanhuan (talk) 15:26, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

那一边设着斗大的一个汝窑花囊。插着满满的一囊水晶球的白菊。西墙上当中挂着一大幅米襄阳“烟雨图”。左右挂着一副对联，乃是颜鲁公墨迹。其联云：烟霞闲骨格，泉石野生涯。 案上设着大鼎，左边紫檀架上放着一个犬官窑的大盘，盘内盛着数十个娇黄玲珑大佛手；右边洋漆架上悬着一个白玉比目磬，傍边挂着小槌。那板儿略熟了些，便要摘那槌子要击，丫鬟们忙拦住他。他又要那佛手吃，探春拣了一个与他，说：“玩罢，吃不得的。”东边便设着卧榻拔步床，上悬着葱绿双绣花卉草虫的纱帐。 There is a large flower bag from Ru kiln on the other side, arranged with a full bag of white chrysanthemums, which look like crystal balls. On the west wall hangs a drawing "Picture of the Misty Rain" by Mi Fu, and there is a couplet hanging on both sides of the drawing, which is an authentic work of Yan Zhenqin. The couplet reads: Born to be romantic and idle, just like the clouds and mists; Live in the mountains and fields, accompanied by the spring and stones.

There is a large tripod on the table, and a large plate from the official kiln is placed on the red sandalwood shelf on the left with dozens of yellow exquisite chayotes in it. On the lacquered shelf on the right hangs a white jade chime with a small mallet.

A bit more familiar with there, Ban-er was about to pick the mallet to strike, but the maids hurriedly stopped him. And then he wanted to eat the chayote, so Seeking-Spring Merchant picked one to him and said, "Just play with it. It's inedible."

On the east side, there is a Babu bed(the biggest bed in ancient China), with a light green silk curtain double-embroidered with flowers and insects hanging down. --Nie Wei (talk) 04:48, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

板儿又跑来看，说：“这是蝈蝈，这是蚂蚱。”刘老老忙打了他一巴掌，道：“下作黄子！没干没净的乱闹。倒叫你进来瞧瞧，就上脸了。”打的板儿哭起来，众人忙劝解方罢。贾母因隔着纱窗后往院内看了一回，因说：“后廊檐下的梧桐也好了，只是细些。”正说话，忽一阵风过，隐隐听得鼓乐之声。贾母问：“是谁家娶亲呢？这里临街倒近。”王夫人等笑回道：“街上的那里听的见？这是咱们的那十来个女 孩子们演习吹打呢。”贾母便笑道：“既他们演，何不叫他们进来演习，他们也逛一逛，咱们可又乐了。” Little Board came to see again, and said,"This is a katydid, and that is a locust." Granny Liu took an instant slap on his face, snapped:"You such a low-spirited guy and you know any other diciplines. We just asked you to have a look, well then, you became so overweening." Little Board was crying when being slapped,and it didn't stop until everyone came to exhort them. Grandma Merchant viewed the court through the screen window and said:" The sycamore tree begin to grow, but it is still so small and tender." As chatting with others, a gust of wind blew, Grandma Merchant heard the faint sounds of drums. Then Grandma Merchant asked:"I wonder who's hosting the wedding? It's indeed near the street." Lady Wang and other people replied with a smile on their faces," How can we hear the sounds from the street? The sounds were just made by our ten-or-so girls who are practicing percussions!" Grandma Merchant laughed and said："Since they are practicing, why not call them perform there, then they'll have a look around here and we will be entertained again."--Sun Lijun (talk) 06:33, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

凤姐听说，忙命人出去叫来，又一回吩咐摆下条桌，铺上红毡子。贾母道：“就铺排在藕香榭的水亭子上，借着水音更好听。回来咱们就在缀锦阁底下吃酒，又宽阔，又听的近。”众人都说：“那里好。”贾母向薛姨妈笑道：“咱们走罢，他们姊妹们都不大喜欢人来，生怕腌臜了屋子。咱们别没眼色，正经坐回子船，喝酒去。”说着，大家起身便走。探春笑道：“这是那里的话？求着老太太、姨妈、太太来坐坐还不能呢。”贾母笑道：“我的这三丫头却好，只有两个玉儿可恶；回来吃醉了，咱们偏往他们屋里闹去。”

“I have had several nice personal affairs set aside away from my Precious Jade, which I’m sure would be gone once he saw them.” As she was saying, Grandma Merchant asked Mandarin Duck over and ordered, “Go fetch that rock bonsai, the gauze screen, and the dark lardite tripod here. Those things would do for the desk. And remember to bring over the white silk bed-curtain decorated with calligraphy and painting for exchange.” “Yes, of course.” Mandarin Duck smiled as she replied, “But those stuff were all kept somewhere in the east tower, and it would take quite a while to find them. What do you say if I go and fetch them tomorrow?” “Tomorrow or the day after doesn’t really matter,” said Grandma Merchant, “The thing is not to forget.” After sitting for a while, the crowd left for the Tower of Splendour where they received the respects from Literal Official and her little fellow actresses. “Which tunes would you like for today?” asked Literal Official. “The ones you’ve been up to rehearse would be fine.” replied Grandma Merchant. Hearing that, the actresses retired to the Lotus Fragrance Anchorage for preparation.

Everyone had a dark silver wine pot with foreign craved patterns and a enamelled cup of various materials. When they were seated, Granny Merchant smiled and said, “Let’s drink a few cups of wine at first and then play a wager game for drinking. That will be interesting.” Aunt Marshgrass laughed, “You must be good at it. How can we compare with you! If you really want to get us drunk, just let us have more cups of wine.” Granny Merchant joked, “How modest you are today! You must think that I’m old enough.” Aunt Marshgrass replied, “I’m not modest. I’m just afraid that you will laugh at me for my disability of giving the right phrase.” Lady King followed, “If we can’t answer, just drink another cup of wine and go to bed after getting drunk. Who dare to laugh at us?” Aunt Marshgrass nodded and said, “That’s right. Let’s start and you have to drink a cup, sister.” Granny Merchant smiled, “Of course.” Then she drank a cup of wine.

Splendid Phoenix King told Aboundance:"Bring that set of ten cups carved out of bamboo root on the bookshelf in the inner room." When the maid was about to go on this errand, Mandarin Duck interposed with a smile:" Those cups are too small. Besides, you will contradict yourself if you produce bamboo instead of wood. Better fetch from our place that large set of ten cups made out of boxwood roots. She wil drink to her content." Splendid Phoenix King thought this a better idea, so Mandarin Duck sent someone to fetch them. These cups filled Grandmother Merchant with amazement and admiration. Amazement because all ten fittted into each other, the largest equal to a small basin in size and even the smallest to the two cups in her hand. Admiration at the exquisite carvings:landscapes, trees and figures as well as the seals and inscriptions.

因忙说道：“拿了那小的来就是了。”凤姐儿笑道：“这个杯，没有这大量的，所以没人敢使他。老老既要，好容易找出来，必定要挨次吃一遍，才使得。”刘老老吓的忙道：“这个不敢。好姑奶奶，饶了我罢。”贾母、薛姨妈、王夫人知道他有年纪的人，禁不起，忙笑道：“说是说，笑是笑，不可多吃了，只吃这头一杯罢。”刘老老道：“阿弥陀佛！我还是小杯吃罢，把这大杯收着，我带了家去，慢慢的吃罢。”说的众人又笑起来。鸳鸯无法，只得命人满斟了一大杯，刘老老两手捧着喝。

凤姐儿果又夹了些放入他口内。刘老老细嚼了半日，笑道：“虽有一点茄子香，只是还不像是茄子。告诉我是个什么法子弄的，我也弄着吃去。”凤姐儿笑道：“这也不难：休把才下来的茄子，把皮刨了，只要净肉，切成碎钉子，用鸡油炸了，再用鸡肉脯子合香菌、新笋、蘑菇、五香豆腐干子、各色干果子，都切成钉儿，拿鸡汤煨干，将香油一收，外加糟油一拌，盛在磁罐子里，封严；要吃时拿出来，用炒的鸡瓜子一拌，就是了。”刘老老听了，摇头吐舌说：“我的佛祖！倒得十来只鸡来配他，怪道这个味儿！”

须臾乐止，薛姨妈笑道：“大家的酒也都有了，且出去散散再坐罢。”贾母也正要散散，于是大家出席，都随着贾母游玩。 贾母因要带着刘老老散闷，遂携了刘老老至山前树下，盘桓了半晌，又说给他这是什么树，这是什么石，这是什么花。刘老老一一领会，又向贾母道：“谁知城里不但人尊贵，连雀儿也是尊贵的。偏这雀儿到了你们这里，他也变俊了，也会说话了。”众人不解，因问：“什么雀儿变俊了会说话？”刘老老道：“那廊上金架子上站的绿毛红嘴是鹦哥儿，我是认得的。那笼子里的黑老鸹子，又长出凤头儿来，也会说话呢。”众人听了又都笑将起来。
