Shangxi 上摡 (gu + zai fan [gài]; the Zhouli mentions: "Supervising the female palace-servants in washing and cleansing [gai 摡]." Zheng Xuan says: "Gai means to wipe clean." The character is written with the 'hand' radical. The Vinaya text writes it with the 'wood' radical as gai 槩, the leveling-stick for pecks and bushels, which does not have this meaning).
