【Biography】
二十四年春，刻其桷，皆非礼也。御孙谏曰：“臣闻之：‘俭，德之共也；侈，恶之大也。’先君有共德而君纳诸大恶，无乃不可乎！”
In the spring of the twenty-fourth year, it would be disrespectful to engrave it in regular script. Imperial Sun admonished: "I have heard: 'Frugality is the common virtue; extravagance is the greatest evil.' The previous monarchs had common virtues, but they accepted all the great evils. Isn't it wrong?"
二十四年春季，又在桓公庙的椽子上雕花，这件事与去年庙柱上涂红漆都是不合礼制的。御孙劝阻说：“下臣听说：‘节俭，是善行中的大德；奢侈，是邪恶中的大恶。’先君具有大德，而君王却把它放到大恶里去，恐怕不可以吧？”
In the spring of the 24th year, another carving was done on the rafters of Huan Gong Temple. This and the red paint on the temple pillars last year were both unethical. Imperial Sun dissuaded him and said: "I have heard: 'Frugality is the greatest virtue among good deeds; luxury is the greatest evil among evil deeds.' The previous king had great virtue, but the king put it into the greatest evil. I'm afraid it's not allowed, right?"
秋，哀姜至。公使宗妇觌，用币，非礼也。御孙曰：“男贽大者玉帛，小者禽鸟，以章物也。女贽不过榛栗枣修，以告虔也。今男女同贽，是无别也。男女之别，国之大节也。而由夫人乱之，无乃不可乎！”
In autumn, mourning for Jiang arrives. It is indecent for an envoy and his wife to use money when they meet each other. Imperial Sun said: "The big male zhi is made of jade and silk, and the small one is a bird, which is used as a seal. The female zhi is no better than hazelnuts, chestnuts, and jujubes, which is a sign of piety. Nowadays, men and women have the same zhi, and there is no difference. The difference between men and women is also a major festival of the country. But if the wife messes with it, it is all right!"
秋季，哀姜来到鲁国，庄公让同姓大夫的夫人相见，相见时用玉帛作为见面礼，这是不合于礼的。御孙说：“男人相见的礼物，大的是玉帛，小的是禽鸟，用东西来表明等级。女人相见的礼物，不超过榛子、栗子、枣子、干肉，以表示诚敬而已。现在男女用相同的相见礼，这是没有区别了。男女的区别，是国家的大法，由于夫人而搞乱了，恐怕不可以吧！”
In autumn, Ai Jiang came to the state of Lu. Duke Zhuang asked the wife of a doctor with the same surname to meet him. When they met, they used jade and silk as a greeting gift, which was not in line with etiquette. Yusun said: "The big gifts for men are jade and silk, and the small ones are birds. They use things to show their rank. The gifts for women when they meet are no more than hazelnuts, chestnuts, dates, and dried meat to show their sincerity. Nowadays, men and women use the same greeting ceremony. There is no difference. The difference between men and women is a national law. If it is messed up by the wife, I'm afraid it's not allowed!"
晋士蒍又与群公子谋，使杀游氏之二子。士蒍告晋侯曰：“可矣。不过二年，君必无患。”
Jin Shi Jiang also conspired with the princes to kill You's second son. Shi Chiang told the Marquis of Jin, "That's all right. In just two years, you will be safe."
晋国的士蒍又和公子们策划，让他们杀了游氏的两个儿子。士蒍告诉晋献公说：“行了。不超过两年，君王就不必担心了。”
The Jin scholar Lao plotted with the princes and asked them to kill You's two sons. Shilai told Duke Xian of Jin, "That's enough. If it doesn't last more than two years, the king won't have to worry."
