众衙役开箱倒柜，把贾赦、贾琏屋里的东西都抄出来搁着。一时人多手杂，木器被咋去，瓷器跌成粉碎。更有混水摸鱼，把细软财物藏进腰包的。

All the Yamen runners opened the boxes and emptied the cabinets, and copied out the things in Jia She’s and Jia Lian’s rooms and put them away. For a time, there were too many people and too many hands. The wooden ware was destroyed and the porcelain fell into pieces. More people fish in troubled waters and hide soft goods in their pockets.
