The following entire evening, Madam Zengjing immerses in or puzzled in this inexplicable feeling. 接下来的整整一个晚上,曾静夫人都沉浸在或者困惑于这种莫名的感受。 When the empress empress spoke the joke, she not like past like that first loudest, when prime minister madame who smiled to make noise and smiles mentioned in Chang An City the amusing thing, she no longer was also coordinating adding inflammatory details in side, but was somewhat unconventionally stares at side princess Li Yu that dark and thin young maidservant to look that more looked is more lost. 皇后娘娘说笑话时,她再不像以往那般第一个笑出声来并且笑的最大声,宰相夫人说起长安城里趣事时,她也不再在旁配合着添油加醋,而是有些忘形地盯着公主李渔身旁的那个黑瘦小侍女看,越看越出神。 She has naturally brought to the attention of some people with the past different performance, when particularly the women of quality note her to stare are staring at princess's direction, thought that in heart strange, sat reminds several times to see her not to have sobered up in some Madame Minister of her side in a soft voice, could not bear has hit her gently. 她与往日迥异的表现自然引起了一些人的注意,尤其是当贵妇们注意到她直勾勾地盯着公主殿下的方向,更是觉得心中奇怪,坐在她身旁的某位尚书夫人轻声提醒了几次见她还没有醒过神来,忍不住轻轻撞了她一下。 Madame Minister pulls down the sound concern to ask: „Actually are you how such mixed up today?” 尚书夫人压低声音关切问道:“你今天究竟怎么这么神不守舍的？” Madam Zengjing smiles reluctantly, had not explained that because she is truly indecipherable, she does not understand why more looked that young maidservant more thinks kind, being fond of feeling in heart is getting more and more thick. 曾静夫人勉强一笑,没有解释,因为她确实无法解释,她自己都不明白为什么越看那名小侍女越觉得亲切,心中的疼惜感觉越来越浓。 The empress empress gathering in great numbers person idle talk tea, during has a very common young maidservant to mix with, moreover sits side the princess, unavoidably causes in the madame hearts the doubts, after entertaining with tea has changed two water, finally prime minister madame cannot bear ask, the empress empress shows a faint smile, introduced Sang Sang simply. 皇后娘娘聚众人闲话饮茶,却有位很不起眼的小侍女夹杂其间,而且还是坐在公主殿下身旁,不免引起众夫人心中很多疑惑,待茶盏换了两道水后,终于宰相夫人忍不住问了出来,皇后娘娘微微一笑,简单地介绍了一下桑桑。 The madames then know, originally this young miss is the Sir Ning personal maidservant, although also has many doubts, inconveniently again asked that moreover their status is honored, although impossible family/home in maid, when the pig dog same treats, actually also is really the people of two world, but looked that in the empress empress share at will how asked several Ning Que. 夫人们这才知晓,原来这个小姑娘是宁大家的贴身侍女,虽说还有很多疑惑,却也不便再问,而且她们身份尊贵,虽说不可能把家中婢女当猪狗一样对待,却也着实是两个世界的人,只是看在皇后娘娘份上随意问了几句宁缺如何。 Madam Zengjing looks that the companions spoke with that young maidservant, oneself could not bear ask to inquire, but she did not care that Sir Ning in that legend can write several central scrolls every day. What asked was the Sang Sang age. 曾静夫人看着同伴们与那小侍女说话,自己也忍不住开问相询,只是她并不关心那位传说中的宁大家每天能写几幅中堂。问的是桑桑的年龄。 Sang Sang does not adapt to the atmosphere in imperial palace very much, if were not in the palace came the decree, moreover Li Yu complied to accompany her, she rather made the gruel to drink in the old pen room, particularly formerly ate meal under taking care of palace maids, even more thought pole pair that Ning Que initially said that the imperial palace radically was not the eating meal place. 桑桑很不适应皇宫里的气氛,如果不是宫里来了旨意,而且李渔答应陪着她,她宁肯在老笔斋里煮粥喝,尤其是先前在宫女们的服侍下吃了顿饭,愈发觉得宁缺当初说的极对,皇宫根本就不是吃饭的地方。 When these honored women asked her question, she thought somewhat strenuous laborious. Until hears some people to ask own age, thought that this issue is actually simple, immediately replied earnestly: „I am Tianqi first year the stranger.” 当那些尊贵的妇人问她问题时,她更是觉得有些吃力辛苦。直到听到有人问自己年龄,觉得这问题倒是简单,马上认真回答道:“我是天启元年生人。” Madam Zengjing looks down to stretch out the hand index of sleeve cuff long time, reckons up her roughly to take reach 15 years old this year, after was startled slightly, said sadly: „If my child lives today. Also then looks like you to be so big.” 曾静夫人低着头看着伸出袖口的手指数了半晌,才算清楚她今年约摸是要满15岁,微微一怔后感伤说道:“如果我那孩子活到今天。也便像你这般大。” At this time the women of quality in palace are intimate with the empress empress, naturally knows that Tianqi first year in Chang An City that noisy fierce woman kills the concubine to extinguish the child event, is listening to this saying in abundance to the vision that Madame Zeng cast to comfort. 此时殿内的贵妇都与皇后娘娘亲近,当然知道天启元年长安城里那场沸沸扬扬的悍妇杀妾灭子事件,听着这话不由纷纷向曾夫人投去安慰的目光。 The empress empress and sound have comforted her several. 皇后娘娘和声安慰了她几句。 Madam Zengjing looked at young maidservant one after opposite case, painstakingly smiles, thought before one extremely missed probably long ago, that daughter who died, today sees to the young miss who her age was similar is being somewhat rude, solid should not unexpectedly. 曾静夫人看了对面案后的小侍女一眼,微苦一笑,心想自己大概是太过思念早年前死去的那个女儿,今日见着与她年岁相仿的小姑娘竟是有些失态,实是不该。 In world has a lot, once moves to be moved, is very difficult to erase it with other way. Just like the take pity on feeling of Madam Zengjing to Sang Sang that non- reason, she wants to convince the daughter who oneself have an emotional tie with early perishes, actually cannot bear looked up once for a while to opposite that Fang Chaan, looks at Sang Sang. 世间有很多事情一旦动心动念,便很难用别的方式把它抹除掉。正如曾静夫人对桑桑那种无来由的怜惜感觉,她想说服自己只是心系早亡的女儿,却总还是忍不住时不时抬起头来望向对面那方茶案,怔怔看着桑桑。 She more looked that Sang Sang more thinks to look familiar, particularly the young miss micro black skin color, how that pair in average man opinion beautiful Liu Yeyan, does not make her feel incomparably intimate, cannot bear asks again: „Formerly listened to you to say. You and Sir Ning have lived in Wei City long ago, is the sun of frontier fortress is too poisonous, therefore exposes to the sun this you?” 她越看桑桑越觉得眼熟,尤其是小姑娘微黑的肤色,那双在常人看来并不如何美丽的柳叶眼,都让她觉得无比亲近,忍不住再次问道:“先前听你说。你和宁大家早年一直在渭城生活,是不是边塞的日头太毒,所以把你晒成这样？” Sang Sang is startled slightly, shakes the head saying: „Young master said that I so am since childhood black.” 桑桑微微一怔,摇头说道:“少爷说我从小就这么黑。” Is listening to her reply, some Madam Zengjing even more state of mind not Ningxia, cannot give a thought to others' unusual vision again, like this dedicated stares at Sang Sang to look. Actually as if must see on her face to have any flower to be ordinary. 听着她的回答,曾静夫人愈发有些神思不宁,再也顾不得别人的异样眼光,就这样专注地盯着桑桑看。仿佛要看出她脸上究竟有什么花一般。 Tea cool feast worthless person from going. 茶凉宴散人自去。 Madam Zengjing defends outside the palace, saw that Li Yu brought Sang Sang to come out, steels one's heart bites the tooth has then blocked two people. 曾静夫人守在殿外,看到李渔带着桑桑出来,把心一横把牙一咬便拦住了二人。 Li Yu brow micro pressed, does not know that actually this big Madame scholar must make anything. 李渔眉头微蹙,不知道这位大学士夫人究竟要做什么。 Madam Zengjing is very clear, as the empress empress firmest supporter. Own these years have not given the princess to be too many good complexion to look, even can say that are miserable the side that the opposite party offends, therefore her expression is even more docile humbly. 曾静夫人很清楚,做为皇后娘娘最坚定的支持者。自己这些年可没有给过公主殿下太多好脸色看,甚至可以说把对方得罪的极惨,所以她的语气愈发温顺谦卑。 „Princess, the woman who received honorific title from the emperor looks at this young miss then to think to be intimate with today encouraging, moreover you also know my child...... I want to deliver this young miss to go home on the way, but also asked your highness to agree.” “公主殿下,命妇今日瞧着这小姑娘便觉得亲近可喜,而且您也知道我那孩子……我想顺道送这位小姑娘回家,还请殿下同意。” Li Yu calmly visits her. 15 years ago daughters who died moved, it seems like that this big Madame scholar wants to travel together with Sang Sang really very much, but actually does she why want this? The empress empress had clearly recognized finally the Academy enter the world important meaning, decided around comes close Ning Que curved? 李渔静静看着她。连15年前死去的女儿都搬了出来,看来这位大学士夫人是真的很想与桑桑同行,只是她究竟为什么要这样做？难道说皇后娘娘终于认清楚了书院入世的重要意义,决定绕着弯来接近宁缺？ Thinks of these matters, she decides to refuse the opposite party humble request, the smile saying: „Sang Sang does not like being together with the stranger.” 想到这些事情,她决定拒绝对方谦卑的请求,微笑说道:“桑桑不爱与生人相处。” This was the truth, the Sang Sang personality is doomed she not to be willing with the person to do, if not for within two years communicated frequently, were Li Yu also very much difficult to walk enter her world, let alone were big Madame scholar who she had not met in the past. 这是真话,桑桑的性情注定了她不愿意和人打交道,两年间若不是经常来往,便是李渔也很难走进她的世界,何况是她以往从来没有见过面的大学士夫人。 However at this moment, peaceful has stood in Li Yu Sang Sang said suddenly: „Ok.” 然而就在这时,一直安安静静站在李渔身旁的桑桑忽然说道:“可以。” ...... …… ...... …… „Did you call Sang Sang?” “你叫桑桑？” „Un.” “嗯。” „This name is but actually interesting.” “这个名字倒有趣。” „Also good.” “还行。” „Who for name that you do give?” “谁替你取的名字？” „Young master.” “少爷。” „Your family young master is present age book, thinks that also extremely has the talent on the say|way of prose, the name that he gives is inevitably good, actually does not know that Sang Sang these two characters do have what profound meaning?” “你家少爷乃当世书家,想必在诗文之道上也极有才华,他取的名字必然是好的,却不知道桑桑这两个字有何深意？” „Does not have the profound meaning, the young master said when sorts me, the roadside had to be strip naked the bark, not to have the mulberry tree of leaf, seemed looked like with me at that time very much, therefore he called me Sang Sang.” “没深意,少爷说拣到我时,路边有棵被剥光了树皮、也没有叶子的桑树,看上去和我那时候很像,所以他叫我桑桑。” „You who where your family young master sorts?” “你家少爷是在哪里拣的你呢？” „Hebei Province, the concrete place he has forgotten, leaves Mount Min we also to look one time, but in the field grew the shoots at that time, the mulberry tree that skins the aphylly died grew many other trees, therefore could not recognize.” “河北郡,具体地方他忘了,出岷山我们还去找过一次,但那时候田里已经长了青苗,剥皮无叶的桑树死了又长出了很多别的树,所以认不出来。” Tonight Chang An City is brilliantly illuminated, is full of tourists. The people of viewing the lanterns solid, even though is Horse-drawn Carriage of Wenyuange big scholar your family place going to the streets and alleys in East city stops up, today is unable to mention the speed, only then honest moves along with the stream of people slowly forward, however Madam Zengjing in Horse-drawn Carriage actually thinks little, even was somewhat happy. 今夜的长安城灯火通明,游人如织。观灯的人们把去往东城的街巷堵的严严实实,纵使是文渊阁大学士府上的马车,今天也无法提起速度,只有老老实实随人流缓慢向前移动,然而马车里的曾静夫人却不以为意,甚至有些高兴。 The journey is more remote, she then can stay a longer time in carriage with Sang Sang, asked more questions. But tonight Sang Sang also somewhat is obviously different from the ordinary day. Unexpectedly all questions will be answered to this madame's issue, the words that a night spoke unexpectedly resembled to add to say last month were more. 路途越遥远,她便能与桑桑在车厢里呆更长的时间,问更多的问题。而今夜的桑桑明显也与平日有些不同。对这位夫人的问题竟是有问必答,一夜说的话竟似比上个月加起来说的还要多。 However these stories of past years were extremely after all fuzzy in her memory, basically was Ning Que rephrases in own words to come, how regardless of Madam Zengjing made a veiled attack, is unable to get the answer that she wanted. 然而当年的那些故事在她的记忆中毕竟太过模糊,基本上都是宁缺转述而来,所以无论曾静夫人怎样旁敲侧击,还是无法得到她想要的答案。 Journey again how remote. Also always has that moment of arriving. 路途再如何遥远。也总有走到的那一刻。 Horse-drawn Carriage of big scholar mansion stops slowly is being near 47 lane lane entrances. 大学士府的马车缓缓停在临47巷巷口。 When Sang Sang gets out extremely politely to Madam Zengjing good a ritual. 桑桑下车时极有礼貌地对曾静夫人行了一礼。 Before Madam Zengjing looks at the shop gate, that thin and small form, why does not know heart acid. 曾静夫人怔怔看着铺门前那个纤瘦的身影,不知为何心头一酸。 She is unable to confirm any matter now, even knows one possibly in wishful thinking, however travels together, she has liked this young miss, thought that if have such daughter should good. 她现在根本无法确认任何事,甚至知道自己可能是在痴心妄想,然而一路同行,她已经喜欢上了这个小姑娘,心想如果自己有这样一个女儿该有多好。 Madam Zengjing raises the car(riage) curtain, somewhat hesitant somewhat restlessly asked: „Are you willing to go to the scholar mansion to be a guest?” 曾静夫人掀起车帘,有些犹豫有些不安问道:“你愿意去学士府做客吗？” Sang Sang took the gate spoon to think the little while, thought that Ning Que also took some days to be proficient. The pine cured meat has fumigated very chooses a person looks in side that he stays in the old pen room not to have the matter to do, therefore she nodded. 桑桑拿着门匙想了会儿,心想宁缺还要些天才能到家。松枝腊肉已经薰好不用人在旁边看着,自己留在老笔斋也没有事情做,于是她点了点头。 ...... …… ...... …… After several day, Wenyuange Zengjing big scholar your family place came a strange guest. 几日后,文渊阁曾静大学士府上来了一位奇怪的客人。 Reason that strange , because that guest is a young maidservant. Chang An City that many nobles and ministers mansions, had not heard which family/home will regard the proper guest a young maidservant, when the steward is getting the young maidservant walks toward the back garden deep place, said that the servant woman maidservants under bank winter willow tree direct. Is astonished difficult to cover. 之所以奇怪,是因为那位客人是名小侍女。长安城那么多座王公大臣府邸,从来没有听说过有谁家会把一个小侍女当成正经的客人,所以当管家领着小侍女向后园深处走去时,道畔冬柳下的仆妇丫环们指指点点。惊愕难掩。 In the mansion under the people noticed that big Madame scholar welcomed in the garden entrance unexpectedly, moreover held the hand of that young maidservant to be very intimate, when the smiling face on face soon overflowed the temple flew the rockery, is more shocking the extreme. 而当府里下人们看到大学士夫人居然在园门口相迎,而且牵着那名小侍女的手无比亲热,脸上的笑容快要溢出鬓角飞上假山时,更是震惊到了极点。 How long has not used, the people in scholar mansion then inquired that the status of that dark and thin young maidservant, knew her origin, whoops. Many people repress laughter to think that oneself managing a household madame really worthily is in Chang An City to the empress empress loyal not two wives, unexpectedly is willing also to make the empress from the dropping status happy. 没有用多长时间,学士府里的人们便已经打听到那名黑瘦小侍女的身份,知道了她的来历,不由议论纷纷。很多人都忍着笑在想,自家当家夫人果然不愧是长安城里对皇后娘娘忠心不二的夫人,居然甘愿自堕身份也要让娘娘高兴。 Perhaps Zengjing big scholar in the mansion, he like the below people in mansion, did not think that the madame invites a young maidservant really to have specially ** the share extremely deliberately creates trouble. Therefore the midday feast only then Madam Zengjing and Sang Sang two people, the emaciated look actually enriches the extreme, moreover by the table also 45 big maidservants collected the god static air/Qi to take care. 曾静大学士不在府里,或许他也像府里的下人们一样,觉得夫人专程宴请一位小侍女实在有**份太过胡闹。所以午宴只有曾静夫人和桑桑二人,菜色却是丰富到了极点,而且桌旁还有45名大丫环敛神静气服侍着。 Sang Sang this whole life in taking care the person, or said accurately in taking care Ning Que, she is not familiar with be taken care eating meal very much, therefore appears somewhat constrained, is more silent than magnificence Lantern Festival that night of Horse-drawn Carriage on. 桑桑这辈子都在服侍人,或者准确说是在服侍宁缺,她很不习惯被人服侍着吃饭,所以显得有些拘束,比华灯节那夜马车上要沉默很多。 Madam Zengjing looks that she considers only to lower the head to eat the food in bowl, in the eye pupil occasionally is flashing through the take pity on look, then she signaled with the eyes to the side most efficient big maidservant. 曾静夫人看着她只顾低头吃着碗里的食物,眼眸里偶尔闪过怜惜神色,然后她对身旁最得力的大丫环使了个眼色。 That big maidservant is understanding, raises the curtain to exit Gezitang that carried the bowl already to arrange to come. 那名大丫环会意,掀帘出去端了碗早已备好的鸽子汤进来。 Before Madam Zengjing carries Gezitang to arrive at the Sang Sang body, said: „Looks at your this small stature, must make up.” 曾静夫人端着鸽子汤走到桑桑身前,说道:“瞧你这小身材,得补补。” Said that this, her hand slides, that bowl of Gezitang then poured the under foot of Sang Sang. 说完这句,她手一滑,那碗鸽子汤便倒到了桑桑的脚下。 Sang Sang stands up, looks down one moistened the less than half cotton skirt and small shoes, is silent. 桑桑站起身来,低头看着自己打湿了小半的棉裙和小鞋,沉默不语。 Madam Zengjing said flurriedly: „This may really be...... Hurries to wash.” 曾静夫人慌乱说道:“这可真是……赶紧去洗洗。” On the cotton skirt and shoes are dyeing the greasy dirt of Gezitang, truly needs to wash. 棉裙和鞋上染着鸽子汤的油污,确实需要洗一洗。 But Sang Sang has not moved, but looks down silent own skirt suspends with the shoes. 但桑桑没有动,只是沉默低头看着自己的裙摆和鞋子。 She realized that this wife is sprinkles herself on Gezitang intentionally. 她察觉到这位夫人是故意把鸽子汤泼到自己身上的。 Because in that flash, is very clear, the madame who she looks carries the finger of soup bowl to make an effort very much, will not slide. 因为在那一瞬间,她看的很清楚,夫人端着汤碗的手指很用力,根本不会滑。 Sang Sang has not been angry, because that bowl of Gezitang were very obviously long in curtain manifestation, Wen cold was not already hot, let alone sprinkles, even if will be sprinkles on the face not to cause any damage, moreover she will unable to feel this madame's evil intention, instead can feel the opposite party timid good intentions, but why does she want such to do? 桑桑没有生气,因为那碗鸽子汤明显在帘外放了很久,早已温冷不烫,别说泼到身上,就算是泼到脸上也不会造成任何伤害,而且她感受不到这位夫人的恶意,反而能感受到对方怯怯的善意,只是她为什么要这么做呢？ ...... ……
