乾隆二十三年戊寅二月十二日幼學金彦猷前明文 右文爲有美一人兮 年方二八 色是傾國 價直千金 雖盡水陸之美 傾天下之羞 不足以稱其人佳麗 病疲遠客 乏錢難辧不時之需 三葉壹蚨 換却少妾 典此沽酒 以助一座之歡 日後如有雜談者 持此文 告官卞正事 浩酒字非實際語 禁令至嚴 豈有沽酒之事乎 聊所以形容其齊家(務)也 一笑 |
(The 23rd year of Qianlong, second month, twelfth day, the document to the degreeless scholar Kim Eonyu As to what this document pertains, I have a beautiful girl Her age is merely sixteen, her beauty is such as to topple a country and worth ten thousand taels of gold. Her gorgeousness could not be adequately described even when exhausting the lavish praise from land and sea, and giving all the words of admiration under heaven. I have drifted from afar and now tired and ill. Lacking money, I could not meet the unexpected emergent need. (I am willing) to exchange my young concubine with a small amount of money. sell her to buy liquor, to liven up the spirits of the party. should there be a dispute at a later date, take this document and report to the authorities for justice to this matter. “buying liquor” is not a serious and factual statement. With such a strict prohibition, how could anyone buy liquor? this is only meant to manifest her value, just for laugh. ) |
