Changing the Ke Yi Festival

provide each other with assistance

snatch like dogs and filch like rats

Spectators stood round like a wall

The widower, the widow, the orphan and the childless

caps and carriages coming like clouds

Lustrous and dazzling

a long sight

share enjoyment with those of the same taste

before a big crowd

be forgetful of all favours received(show ingratitude to somebody who has done favours)

Curse and abuse

gobbledygook(rubber stamp)

famous and capable descendants

Attend personally

hunting and racing,song and women(a dissipated and luxurious life)

Once the headrope of a fishing net is pulled out, all its meshes open

be obstinate and self-opinionated

tall buildings and great mansions

Flay the face and wash the heart
