第 17 章(2 / 2)

这边宝钗在梨香院里送走了平儿,手里拿着那只细长匣子把玩了一会儿,顺手将其递给一直守在旁边的苏嬷嬷。苏嬷嬷接过匣子打开一看,里面竟是根纯金镂刻着仙人楼台的长簪,不像是本朝时兴的样子。

苏嬷嬷取出来放在眼前细看一番道:“这是前朝从平安州那边传过来的样式,亦不为女子所用,只能说这份量够实在,旁的也就罢了。”宝钗就笑道:“嬷嬷拿了去,当是赔你那条小金鱼儿!”这是笑进宫那天苏嬷嬷白塞了那大太监一条小金鱼,结果也没成事。宝钗自己是不大在意的,只苏嬷嬷还有些遗憾,故此安慰她一下。苏嬷嬷笑着把这簪子装回去:“我也不要这个,少不得再撅了一半儿还给姑娘。不如让伙计们拿出去融了,咱们家银楼里有的是大师傅,再打不出姑娘中意的簪环!”

宝钗也不勉强她,唤了白鹭过来:“这东西你交给留在外面的画眉,让她带去铺子里挑个时兴样子融了重打些小玩意儿,我留着赏人呢。再挑一副精细点儿的虾须镯进来与嬷嬷戴着玩儿。放你半天假,去吧。”白鹭听了大喜,忙接了匣子下去收拾,又有不少丫头听说她得了假出去,纷纷取了私房钱来要她捎带点子东西回来。

过了晌午,黛玉身边的丫鬟雪雁过来了一趟,说是她主子似乎对身边人的声音有些儿反应了,喜得宝钗忙让人去请了之前的大夫再来看看。老爷子带了个药童,提了个药匣子慢悠悠进来,隔着屏风行了礼,这才上去诊脉道:“这姑娘十分病已是去了六七分,剩下三四分只看后面如何好生将养。”说罢提笔写了串药方,宝钗要了来一看,尽是些或清热,或解毒的药材,只皱了眉问道:“我妹子生得这般单薄,哪里还有甚么热性的模样?或不是饮食不当呢?”

那老大夫呵呵笑道:“姑娘也是富贵人家,只怕平日里都用了养身的药。总好叫您知道‘是药三分毒’,无甚大毛病竟不要乱用为上。譬如令妹,原本只是有些少年人郁结烦躁,叫那人参往上一顶,可不就肺火旺盛,早晚间不爱咳嗽才是罕事。再有这些人参肉桂苁蓉之类具是大补大热,恐怕这姑娘平日十顿饭能吃好两三顿就要谢天谢地,长此以往换个八尺大汉也得虚弱无比,何况个小女孩儿!依着老朽,竟就粗茶淡饭,或许能保得一世平安。”

宝钗听他说的有理,忙喊了丫头包个荷包好好将人送出去,又叫外间伙计陪着大夫去吃了顿好的,这才回来对一直旁听的雪雁道:“可是听得真真儿的?往后再别给你们姑娘乱吃甚人参养荣丸,清清爽爽的菜蔬多用些方为正理。”雪雁哽咽道:“原本在家里就是这么个素多荤少的吃法,哪知进了贾府后竟与此前不同,整日肥鸡大鸭子的。姑娘怕叫人耻笑,少不得一一改了过来,怪道身子越来越弱呢。”

宝钗只安慰她道:“这‘橘生淮南则为橘,橘生淮北则为枳’,可见万物都是依着生了自己的水土长,人亦如此。林姑娘是南方人,自是与北方人不一样,少不得还是要慢慢按着家里习惯才好。老祖宗可是她嫡嫡亲的外祖母,有甚不能直说的!”说了一会子才让她去了,那边又有人来报贾母传晚膳。宝钗便起身带了莺儿过去,席间只见迎春惜春,听说探春又偶感风寒歇着,凤姐去了宁国府帮忙理事,一顿饭不咸不淡便过去了。

待众人罢箸进过茶贾母才道:“后儿就是送秦氏的正日子,因今年南方雨水甚丰,是以人且先放在家里铁槛寺供奉着,待今后迁回去入土。你们少不得都要去给她上柱香,因着有外客来吊唁,个个都要带好丫鬟在身边,免得叫外人看了去。”众人齐声应过,贾母这才想起宝钗也在坐,好言对她道:“你是做客的姑娘,不必亲自去送她,喊个下人替你便是。”

宝钗起身应了声方才重新坐下,低头盯着桌子发呆,由着贾家众人你来我往着说些秦氏的好只不做声。论理,秦氏的养父秦业只是个五品的营缮郎,宁国府乃是贾氏一族的宗族所在,且数代单传,少不得贾珍身上的爵也要袭给独子贾蓉。这宗妇如何会选了这样一个贫女?且那秦氏平日里起居行动的气派也不像是个五品小官儿家里能养的出来的,只她卧房里随便一件玩意儿拿出去兑了都够秦家几辈子吃喝,怎么想都甚是奇怪。

况且,这儿媳妇死了,做丈夫的贾蓉没见滴几滴眼泪,倒是公公贾珍哭得几次险些死过去,真真是连丝遮羞布也不顾,直叫人啼笑皆非。因着客居,少不得要给主家留几分薄面,打发个平日在主子们面前露过脸的婆子去便是,黛玉那边喊了王嬷嬷跟着也算是全了礼节。当下计议已定,这边饭也用罢,人人四散去做自家的事儿。宝钗略在园中站了站,想着黛玉那边还没安排晚饭呢,索性带了莺儿往大厨房去,走到一半遇见宝玉的丫头晴雯叉个腰站在哪儿正把厨房管事媳妇骂得狗血淋头。

那丫头,因着秦氏亡殁只顾穿了一身儿浅黄,下面系着白绫裙子,越发显得猿背蜂腰婀娜多姿,只嘴上甚是刻薄:“让你做碗嫩嫩的鸡蛋羹,多早晚催到现在也不见动弹一下,那蛋难道是你生的不成?如此舍不得。”厨房管事被人称做柳家的媳妇子道:“呸!你妈才下蛋呢!这里见天忙的脚打后脑勺,伺候的姑娘们再没你们这样要东要西的,换我说,竟不必伺候头层主子,只紧着伺候你们这些二层主子了!”

柳家的正好站在厨房门口脸朝外,眼尖看着宝钗扶着莺儿慢慢走过来,忙满脸堆起笑道:“宝姑娘来了,今儿想要用些甚么?只管吩咐,哪里还用您亲自跑一趟呢。”宝钗见避无可避,干脆走上来道:“可是宝兄弟用了什么心里不舒畅了?竟这般吵闹。”那柳家的连忙摆手:“再不敢的,若是宝二爷,哪怕不好吃也得注意着洁净,怎敢胡来?今儿宝二爷和东府小蓉大奶奶的弟弟出去了,这几个小丫头子闲下来就嘴馋,净跟在头里裹乱,让您笑话了。”

晴雯见了宝钗也不敢再嚷嚷,垂手站了一旁分辨道:“只请宝姑娘做个公道,昨儿袭人又不舒服,奴婢伺候到后半夜才睡下,今儿起来嗓子就不顺,所以就想要个嫩一点的蛋羹冲点子白糖顺下去。要是明儿后儿嗓子肿起来不是要误了主子们的大事?”

宝钗拿着帕子捂了嘴笑道:“我道是多大事儿呢,一个蛋打碎了兑碗水加把柴火的事儿。正好我也要一个带过去给林姑娘预备着,你一起多做几碗,若是没鸡蛋了我现让家里伙计去街上买过来可好?”那柳家的如何敢让客人现买东西给她送来,只诺诺道:“既是姑娘吩咐了,少不得做上个三、五碗的预备着。”宝钗就看了眼莺儿,莺儿会意道:“劳烦您先忙着,这二十个钱儿谢您了,毕竟不是用饭的时候,少不得添了麻烦。”

柳家的见了钱这才好过来,巴巴儿跑进厨房摆开架势,只一刻钟就蒸了五碗黄澄澄的鸡蛋羹出来。因想着之前老大夫的交代,宝钗又叫做了一碗细面汤,炒了个绿豆芽,一并叫她装了这才让莺儿提着往梨香院走去。
