他們往往要親眼看着黃酒從罎子裏舀出，看過壺子底裏有水沒有，又親看將壺子放在熱水裏，然後放心：在這嚴重監督下，羼水也很爲難。 [MSC, trad.]
他们往往要亲眼看着黄酒从坛子里舀出，看过壶子底里有水没有，又亲看将壶子放在热水里，然后放心：在这严重监督下，羼水也很为难。 [MSC, simp.]- Tāmen wǎngwǎng yào qīnyǎn kàn zhuó huángjiǔ cóng tánzǐ lǐ yǎo chū, kàn guò húzǐ dǐ lǐ yǒu shuǐ méiyǒu, yòu qīn kàn jiāng húzǐ fàng zài rèshuǐ lǐ, ránhòu fàngxīn: zài zhè yánzhòng jiāndū xià, chànshuǐ yě hěn wèinán.
- They often insisted on seeing, with their own eyes, the huangjiu ladled from the jug, looking over the flask to see if it had water inside or not, then seeing with their own eyes that the flask was put in hot water, afterwards being at ease. Under this strict supervision, diluting was quite difficult.
