話說雷鳴、陳亮聽老丈說明了道路，二人一直往北，走了不遠，果見路東有一座德泰裕糧店。北隔壁是一條大街，二人進了舊興隆街一直往東頭一看，見路北里是廣亮大門，門口有兩個龍爪槐，門上有「樂善好施」的匾額。

Now, once the old gentleman had explained the way, Lei Ming and Chen Liang headed straight north. Before they had gone far, there, sure enough, was the Detaiyu Grain Shop on the east side of the road. Right beside it to the north ran a broad street. The two of them turned into Old Xinglong Street and looked straight along to its east end. On the north side of the street stood a grand open gateway, with two dragon-claw pagoda trees at the door and a plaque over it that read ‘Glad to Do Good and Generous in Giving’.
陳亮一看，知道裡面栽著內掛。
陈亮一看，知道里面栽着内挂。
Chen Liang took one look and knew they kept an ‘inside hand’ in there.
書中交代，什麼叫內掛呢？此乃是江湖綠林中的黑話。保鏢的調坎，說叫內掛，街上賣藝的叫星掛。陳亮看罷，同著雷鳴二人又往東走。瞧大門東邊有一個向北小胡同，雷鳴、陳亮二人進了小胡同，一直往北，這個胡同甚窄，大約也只有二尺度。陳亮說：「二哥，你瞧這個小胡同，要是對面來了胖子就擠不過去。」二人來到北頭一看，西牆裡是趙宅的花園子。雷鳴、陳亮站在高坡之處一望，見一座花園，裡面極其講究，有假山子石，有月牙河，牡丹亭，薔薇架，小舟船，留芳閣，避暑樓，賞雪亭，真有四時不謝之花，八節長春之草。

A word of explanation: what is an ‘inside hand’? It is the black talk of the greenwood. In this cant, escorts are called ‘inside hands’, and men who perform in the streets are called ‘street hands’. When Chen Liang had seen what he needed, he and Lei Ming went on east. On the east side of the gate they saw a little alley running north. Lei Ming and Chen Liang went into the alley and followed it straight north. It was very narrow, only about two feet across. “Second Brother,” said Chen Liang, “look at this alley. If a fat man came the other way, you’d never squeeze past him.” When they reached the north end and looked, they saw that behind the west wall lay the Zhao family’s garden. Lei Ming and Chen Liang stood on a rise and looked across at it. It was laid out with the greatest care: rockeries, the Yueya Brook, a Peony Pavilion, a rose trellis, little boats, a Lingering Fragrance Gallery, a Summer Retreat Tower, a Snow-Viewing Pavilion. Truly, there were flowers that never faded in any of the four seasons and grasses that stayed green through all eight festivals of the year.
