知县喝道：『胡说！前日初审，薛蟠承认是拿碗砸死的，你也承认是亲眼所见，怎么今天所供与前不符？掌嘴！』吴良求饶，只说：『所供是实。』

Tradionnal Chinese
知縣喝道：『胡說！前日初審，薛蟠承認是拿碗砸死的，你也承認是親眼所見，怎麼今天所供與前不符？掌嘴！』吳良求饒，只說：『所供是實。』

Simple Translation
The Supervisor of the County shouted, “Nonsense! In the first trial the day before yesterday, Xue Pan admitted that he was killed with a bowl, and you also admitted that you saw it with your own eyes. Why is today’s confession inconsistent with the previous one? Applause!” Wu Liang begged for mercy, saying only, “What you said is true.”
