第19章 嫡母送簪
王氏站在秦流西的这个小偏院里,四处环顾。

并不大的偏院,并没有种多少花草,四四方方,西北角堆砌了一处小小的假山,假山下有一汪小池,池内养了几株莲,如今七月都快尽了,可上头竟还有一朵颤巍巍的莲花开着,有两尾一黑一白长得有些奇怪的小鱼在内游动着。

这一处风景让王氏流连忘返,又瞥向东南角,那边则是种了一棵石榴树,树上的石榴花还开着,红艳艳的十分繁郁,显得一派生机。

有风吹来,不知哪里夹杂着一股子花香味,王氏正要循香而去,秦流西已是迎了出来。

“母亲怎来了。”秦流西向王氏行了一礼。

王氏顿了脚,唇角勾了一下:“这天还没黑全,我来和你说说话。”

秦流西让了半边身子,请她进屋去。

王氏也没推让,抬脚拾级而进,这一进屋,视线也是环顾一周。

屋内并没有什么华丽的装饰或摆件,只窗台下摆了一张桌子,上面放着文房四宝,还有几本叠得凌乱的书,桌子旁,还有一张美人榻,上头搭了一条素青色的薄毯。

屋子中央,还有一张圆桌,上面摆了茶具,王氏坐了下来,岐黄已呈上了茶。

王氏端起喝了一口,看着秦流西道:“这宅子也不算小,多的是空着的屋子,这些年,你怎就挑了这个偏院住呢?”

秦流西淡淡地道:“方便,清净。”

王氏一噎,这哪算清净呢,这偏院靠近后街,也在这开了一个角门方便出入,有些声音还是能传过来的。

不过她说的方便,总不会是出入方便吧?
王氏强行把这念头给压下去,看着跟前这张过于浅淡的脸,一时无话可说。

秦流西的生母,姿容绝美,身段更不必说,可她却长得不太像她。

秦流西的面相并不柔媚,脸颊略显削薄,薄唇通红,一双眼睛却是极为灵动,眼尾一挑时,显得不可一世,看谁都不屑的样子。

这副皮相,还是很耐看的。

王氏道:“这些年,你一个人在老宅,委屈伱了。”

秦流西抬起眼皮,道:“谈不上委屈,这样也挺好的,习惯了。”

王氏闻言又是一僵,不多说话,只从袖子里拿出一只小银簪递给她:“你及笄本该办一场仪式,家中出事突然,也无法带出什么,这支银簪子是昨日才买,礼薄了。”

秦流西看着那支花样为海棠的银簪,愣了一下,半晌才接了过来,道:“多谢母亲。”

王氏扯了扯嘴角:“谈什么谢,这本该是秦家给你的,若非出了事,你本该有更好的发簪,毕竟你是我秦家的大小姐,哪怕只是记名,你也是嫡女名份。”

秦流西默了默,把银簪别在头上,伸手摸上她的手腕,道:“您且放宽心。”

这手一搭上脉象,秦流西的眉头就拧了一下,再抬头看王氏的子女宫,又黯了几分,不由抿了抿唇。

“母亲夜不能寐,又肝火郁结,长此以久,有伤体魄,于寿数不妥。心宽,才能有望。”

王氏瞳孔微震,双目和她直视。
