Li Zhuoxi: “If a courtesan has no beauty, how can she make a living? And if she has no beauty, what could possibly keep you coming back?”
Shen Yinji: “This ‘without beauty’ is not the same as that ‘without beauty.’ It should be understood as a house with no ‘lack of beauty.’”
“Her name was not originally Peerless Beauty. It was Peony. One of her famous admirers compared her looks to the peerless beauty of a peony, and so her name was changed. And as for Hongyan! That girl is marvelous! Extraordinary! Alas, this humble fellow lacks the talent to describe her, and is simply at a loss for words!”
It's a good start, why not update it?
