　　：Zhang Fei Apology

　　At Cao Cao's instruction, Liu Bei was about to set off for a punitive***懲罰的*** expedition against Yuan Shu. Before he left, Liu Bei worried about the defence of Xuzhou City. When Zhang Fei volunteered to take the task, Liu said, "How can I feel assured, when you're so fond of drinking and after drinking you always flog***鞭打*** your soldiers for no reason? And you're such a hot-tempered person and frequently you refuse to take advice." He entrusted***委託*** the task upon Zhang only after the latter's repeated entreatments and resolutions to mend his ways. For safety, he left consultant Chen Deng to assist Zhang.

　　One day Zhang invited his subordinate***下屬，下級*** officers over. "My elder brother instructed me before he left to stay away from wine for fear I may fail my duties to guard the city. Let's have an final drinking party today, and starting from tomorrow, we will quit drinking and concentrate on the job."

　　With these words said, he began toasting everyone. When neither of his toasts was accepted by Cao Bao, Zhang flared up. By then , Zhang was already drunk. He had Cao flogged fifty times.

　　After the party was over, the resentful Cao sent one of his men to Lv Bu, the enemy general, asking him to attack the city that night while Zhang was drunk. Lv came with 500 horsemen. They successfully took the city. When Zhang woke up with a start, the city was gone. He fought his way out of the enemy troops and fled the city, leaving his elder brother's family behind.

　　When he met Liu, he felt so shame-faced that he unsheathed***抽出鞘*** his sword meaning to commit suicide, only to be stopped by his elder brother.

　　：Xiang Ling Playing Grass Game

　　On Baoyu's birthday the young ladies held a drinking party in which they composed poems and much fun. Their service maids started a game of their own.

　　Xiang Ling, Xue Fan's concubine***妾，情婦*** , collected some flower and grass and began a grass game with the other. "This one is bodhisattva***菩薩*** willow," one said. And another one would say, "I have arhat***羅漢*** pine."

　　Suddenly, Dou Guan said she had a sisters flower. Xiang Ling said, "I have a husband and-wife flower." "Never heard of that," the previous girl protested. "why," Xiang Ling explained. "One flower on a stem is called lan, and several flower on a stem make hui. Two on one stem, one up and one down, is a brother flower, and two flowers side is certainly a spouses one." The other girl, however, did not easily give up. Laughing, she challenged, "Well, then if one flower is big and the other one small, then it's a father and son flower; and if two flowers face different ways it's probably an enemies flower. Is that rather? Xue Fan is gone for over half a year. I guess because you miss him you made up that husband and wife flower."

　　Blushed, Xiang Ling rushed up meaning to pinch***捏*** the sharp-tongued girl, who laughed and begged for the other's help. At the sight of the girls' laughing, poking and punching each other in a friendly manner.
