霰雪紛飛。419Please respect copyright.PENANA1YgEbLD7Bz
謝梅仰起臉去看樹上的梅,無意間接了一臉細碎雪粉。419Please respect copyright.PENANAnkm8p0Vdha
雪落眉間,清寒透骨。419Please respect copyright.PENANAt2j126Coc6
「小姐!」丫鬟知謙急匆匆趕來,將狐皮披風披在她肩上,仔細地打好了繩結,一邊絮絮叨叨地道:「大夫說了不許小姐吹風,須得好生臥床安養,小姐怎的來院子了!若是要賞梅,吩咐奴婢折了入屋便是。更何況現在梅花只得小苞,還未盛開,有什麼可看的?」419Please respect copyright.PENANAOdgCKIPFxi
誠如知謙所言,牆角那株梅樹梢頭只見粉紅花苞,開得最盛的也只羞澀地稍稍張開花瓣,未見傲雪凌霜之風骨。419Please respect copyright.PENANAuljEbBsLiy
站在朱牆下的謝梅凍得臉有些白了,只是好脾氣地笑。許是因病中氣不足,她說話總是細聲細氣:「知謙,之後我或許再也離不了床,讓我好好看一回罷。」419Please respect copyright.PENANALHPOZTK9h3
「小姐勿要胡說,只是小病發作一回,很快便好全啦......」知謙知道這話像哄孩子,聲音越發虛了,只得另尋了安慰的話:「開春時衛家世子就回來京城與小姐成婚,小姐難道不想他麼?」419Please respect copyright.PENANAU86vSbDQAP
任誰都知道,謝家小姐病得急,現已病入膏肓,怕是熬不過這個冬天。也只知謙這小丫頭還說這些好聽的話。419Please respect copyright.PENANAffjpVAGvKk
謝梅只是仰頭看梅花,輕輕吟了一首詩。419Please respect copyright.PENANAZbrsfU2Z39
詩的意思知謙聽不大懂,只知道裡頭說什麼「相知」,什麼「山海誓」,於是懵懂地歪了歪頭。419Please respect copyright.PENANAbZHZqsy5u4
「傻知謙,我與世子未曾見面,談何思念。」謝梅咳嗽幾聲,溫柔地撫丫鬟的頭髮。419Please respect copyright.PENANAdaZqDICpxR
白雪翩翩,沾了謝梅的黛眉與烏鬢,猶如一夜白頭。她的臉上盡顯病容,眉梢眼底卻只見春波一般的溫柔意。419Please respect copyright.PENANAyxLWSZGIXP
知謙鼻子一酸,怔怔瞧著她家小姐半晌,取了帕子去擦她臉上的雪。甫擦了幾下,知謙驀然抱住她的腰,痛哭出聲。419Please respect copyright.PENANAmMpCPxCJVP
白色帕子脫了手,飄落在雪地裡。雪下得越發大了,瞬息之間,帕子被雪埋得不見蹤影。

小雪與大雪倏忽即過,轉眼便是冬至。419Please respect copyright.PENANArMwgea1p9r
一匹神駿白馬噴出霧息,馬蹄飛踏處,碎雪紛揚。馬上之人一身行軍鐵甲,劍眉星目,奔過了街口,勒馬停在謝家府門前。419Please respect copyright.PENANAg31B31izOo
收到謝家告知未婚妻病重的信,衛長青便加快了卻軍中事務,急匆匆請了假,在開春前趕回京城。419Please respect copyright.PENANAhcP6OKfudA
他與謝梅從未見面,只是長輩指腹為婚,說不上有什麼情份。但謝衛兩家有著幾輩的交情,人情上自是該早去探望兩眼,寬慰幾句。419Please respect copyright.PENANA0oo33PoSXn
怎料謝府門前掛滿白幡與燈籠。419Please respect copyright.PENANAqda7wUfMsS
叩門去問,門僮一身白色喪服,哀痛告知謝家小姐亡逝之訊;聞說此人是衛家世子,便畢恭畢敬地請入府中,奔去通報主子。419Please respect copyright.PENANAQGXcHGrYta
衛長青不知此事,應是大雪中驛站文書傳訊緩慢之故;未能在未婚妻香消玉殞之前見得一面,難免扼腕嘆息。礙於人情,面上總是要掛幾分哀痛顏色,但兩人未曾相識,若說難過也未必真有幾分。419Please respect copyright.PENANAuIl1AZrHUJ
人情人情。若說虛偽,卻又有那麼幾分道理。本意該是人之常情,卻成了逢場作戲的儀態,但若能讓大家都舒坦,又何樂而不為?419Please respect copyright.PENANAHUFyqWPB8l
不過片刻,謝家家主便趕至廳堂。謝平瀾年過四十,蓄著一把美鬚,喪女之痛叫他面容憔悴,談吐卻依舊風度翩翩。419Please respect copyright.PENANAJgDy95B7Tx
一番寒暄,衛世子言「伯父節哀」,謝家主曰「世姪有心」。來回幾趟足了禮數後,謝平瀾交予他一信,言是謝梅託付。419Please respect copyright.PENANAUCSR4cuVpk
衛長青開了信看,只見娟秀字跡書了一詩:419Please respect copyright.PENANAvxMmbRnku0
「未與君相知,不言山海誓。雪埋梅香時,慰君不傷逝。」

知謙穿上了夾襖,帶了剪子,尋思著要到院子剪一枝梅,奉在小姐靈前。越過抄手遊廊,只見院子裡大雪飄揚,已有一人立於梅花樹下,仰頭看梅。419Please respect copyright.PENANATQiLWVGIkE
梅花傲雪凌霜,在枝頭開得正盛;那男子似是在看梅,又像什麼都沒看,只是愣愣出神。419Please respect copyright.PENANAtoTZrEvkb6
雪落在他眉間,清寒透骨。
