弄嘴弄舌 [nòng zuǐ nòng shé] [nong zui nong she]—
To show off one's eloquence; to quibble. From Chapter 44 of Journey to the West (《西遊記 [xi you ji]》): "This Stable Keeper (弼馬溫 [bi ma wen]) truly knows how to talk glibly! He even gave a latrine (毛坑 [mao keng]) a Taoist name (道號 [dao hao]), calling it 'Place of the Reincarnation of the Five Grains' (五穀輪迴之所 [wu gu lun hui zhi suo])!" From Stories to Caution the World (《警世通言 [jing shi tong yan]》), Volume 8, "Magistrate Qiao Unjustly Arranges Marriages" (《喬太守亂點鴛鴦譜 [qiao tai shou luan dian yuan yang pu]》): "After that, the Sun family (孫家 [sun jia]) sent the maid (養娘 [yang niang]) to say, 'I would have let it go, but it was you again who talked too much and caused trouble, deceiving their family (哄著他家 [hong zhe ta jia]).'"
弄嘴弄舌：賣弄口舌。《西遊記》第四四回：「這個弼馬溫著然會弄嘴弄舌！把個毛坑也與他起個道號，叫什麼『五穀輪迴之所』！」《警世通言．卷八．喬太守亂點鴛鴦譜》：「次後孫家叫養娘來說，我也罷了，又是你弄嘴弄舌，哄著他家。」
