       From: translation by Yang Hsien-yi and Gladys Yang
       Wǒ cóng shí'èr suì qǐ, biàn zài zhèn kǒu de Xiánhēng jiǔdiàn lǐ dāng huǒjì, zhǎngguì shuō, yàngzi tài shǎ, pà shìhòu bù liǎo chángshān zhǔgù, jiù zài wàimiàn zuò diǎn shì ba. Wàimiàn de duǎnyī zhǔgù, suīrán róngyì shuōhuà, dàn láoláodāodāo chánjiā bùqīng de yě hěn bùshǎo. [Pinyin]
       At the age of twelve I started work as a waiter in Prosperity Tavern, at the entrance to the town. The tavern keeper said I looked too foolish to serve the long-gowned customers, so I was given work in the outer room. Although the short-coated customers there were more easily pleased, there were quite a few trouble-makers among them too.
