牛皮製行李箱在旅人手中搖搖晃晃,它隨著主人穿過永定門走在天橋南大街上。先農壇與天壇被各色市場和胡同擁簇著,看,那六七歲小兒正一蹦一跳從達圓鏡胡同走出。他抱緊懷中的布袋往前走去,繞進正陽門前的果子市場後,大概是要去學堂吧。356Please respect copyright.PENANAPVpiU2AJfy

蓬頭垢面的乞丐自珠寶市場跑出,身穿黑長袍的男子緊追其後,兩人死命往正陽門內跑去,街邊一時塵土飛揚。356Please respect copyright.PENANAwCUzdvgckP

正陽門前握著扎滿糖葫蘆木樁的老朽見到眼前飛過的兩道身影,無奈地搖搖頭,然後又搖起手中的撥浪鼓叫賣。356Please respect copyright.PENANAr1RfxbhfuW

城南一直如此熱鬧有趣,你追我趕的戲碼日日上演,大家已是見慣不慣。356Please respect copyright.PENANAfGcW1HmqDT

綿延不斷的紅磚墻與巍峨如山的黑鐵閘相連,鐵閘上兩隻張牙舞爪的金獅子正目不轉睛地盯著前方,在嚇唬生人的同時,也將屋內人拘禁。黑黢黢的鐵閘與後方空地上粉嫩的月季花叢形成強烈對比,那畢竟是粉與墨的戰爭。越過月季花叢,走上石階,迎來一扇由柚木製成的大木門。兩扇木門皆精心雕刻了展翅高飛的雄鷹,就連細長的銅門柄上也雕飾了一串串柳葉,而這木門守護著一幢由無數紅黏土磚砌成的小洋樓。兩大條鴉青瓦磚將這美輪美奐的紅洋樓分為三層,每層兩邊皆有一排兩米長的透明大玻璃窗。356Please respect copyright.PENANA8PvIYFHBcp
356Please respect copyright.PENANAaiUwF78oCn
雪白的房門,紅木的鋼琴,脂粉俗氣的梳妝台,與山對立的玻璃窗, 紅木書桌,大洋床,一排大衣櫃……356Please respect copyright.PENANAmf2p4FCMs8
356Please respect copyright.PENANA8rZgLtxl0z
早晨八點十分,穿著墨紫色旗袍的老婦扭捏著身子走上二樓。她推開樓梯口的右房門,徑直走進房內,順勢一把將紅絨窗簾拉開。霎時間,溫和的陽光穿透窗前輕曳的白紗,映在正熟睡的少女臉上。床上的人眉頭微蹙,不快地翻了個身,粉色吊帶順著她的左肩滑落。356Please respect copyright.PENANACzGqy4QKHb
356Please respect copyright.PENANA3XtF0R6JLu
「小姐,該起床了。」老婦搖了搖床上的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAc93aMqtdI6
「張媽,我再睡一會兒,就一會兒。」少女雙目緊閉,將自己埋在被子下。356Please respect copyright.PENANANfM0vTIQe8
老婦輕拍躲在被子下的人:「楊家姑娘不是約了您今日九點一起去茶館看戲嗎?現在已經八點十分了,再不起來可要遲到了!」356Please respect copyright.PENANAzWKOTSZQHJ
「張媽你出去,我再睡五分鐘,就五分鐘嘛!」少女不耐煩地說。356Please respect copyright.PENANAkRCa3e2HFq
356Please respect copyright.PENANAc4QM2LoxR6
老婦拗不過這小祖宗,只得搖搖頭退出房間。她前腳剛踏出房門,樓下的電話便「叮叮叮」地響個不停。356Please respect copyright.PENANACLEjknLJmv
356Please respect copyright.PENANAxnNKfM2yG0
「喂,這裡是北平郭梟鴻上將府,請問找誰?」老婦撇著嘴拿起鋪了一層灰的電話。356Please respect copyright.PENANACT7Z0GePbw
「張媽,是我,琇瑩。陶陶睡醒了嗎?」電話那頭是少女的發小,楊琇瑩。356Please respect copyright.PENANABj1ATa78M8
老婦對著電話訕訕一笑,緩緩吐出一句:「楊小姐早安。我家小姐……還沒睡醒。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5criROB4P
356Please respect copyright.PENANAENLHEfLBhk
電話那頭的楊琇瑩想起她要找的人剛從美國回到中國沒幾天,興許還在倒時差,無奈地歎了一口氣,便讓老婦告訴她家小姐醒了去菀青軒尋她。老婦想了想,又吞吞吐吐地拒絕,她怕她家小姐會走丟。356Please respect copyright.PENANAFFDAxJeXQ6
356Please respect copyright.PENANA3QcGF1ICds
「哎呀,張媽你就放心吧,丟不了!郭陶陶去美國之前在北平住過一段時間,而且我今兒整個早晨都在茶館裡,她肯定能找到我!」電話那頭的楊琇瑩不耐煩道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAwtUH5yM4TY
356Please respect copyright.PENANAnPmbhOdA2B
老婦還未來得及回復,對方便將電話掛斷了,「都是不好伺候的主呀」,她常常這樣想。356Please respect copyright.PENANAMZojlWj7BG
356Please respect copyright.PENANAeerzk3lTo7
老婦名喚張美寧,是國民黨陸軍上將郭梟鴻的家僕,在郭府工作逾三十載,深受郭府上下尊重。而楊琇瑩口中的「陶陶」便是張美寧主要服侍的對象──郭梟鴻幼女,郭陶陶。356Please respect copyright.PENANANwB2egdRN8
356Please respect copyright.PENANAdvFdeiD88k
「張媽!」樓上傳來郭陶陶的叫喊聲。356Please respect copyright.PENANAEhgEPQqDus
356Please respect copyright.PENANAVIUAHsfdq0
張美寧放下電話,歎了一口氣,又往二樓跑去。356Please respect copyright.PENANAvXPv5rOAT9
356Please respect copyright.PENANAoSRG8RubNM
「小姐……怎麼了?」356Please respect copyright.PENANA5HukTE1mfD
「都八點二十分了!你怎麼不叫我起床呀?你不知道琇瑩約了我今早九點一起去茶館看大戲嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAwnGxArZpsV
「八點十分就叫過小姐了,是小姐說要再睡一會兒的……」356Please respect copyright.PENANAc0HeRQbTWk
「是嗎……」356Please respect copyright.PENANAIPVPcQCR9e
「楊小姐剛剛來電過,說小姐應該在調時差,不怪小姐。她還說與小姐在菀青軒會和,今兒早上她會呆在菀青軒裡。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAm65spVNFpM
356Please respect copyright.PENANAkNQNtm2QCp
郭陶陶聽了張美寧的話,點點頭,在梳妝台前坐下,望著鏡中的人好一會兒。凌亂的過肩捲髮,皺巴巴的粉色睡裙,眼下還掛著一對因中美時差而生的黑眼圈……356Please respect copyright.PENANAJSGkHJUHyl
356Please respect copyright.PENANAVYhm89RX0A
「淺黃色的!」356Please respect copyright.PENANAow9O0d7tmR
356Please respect copyright.PENANAT1dADD9MJd
張美寧聞言,立馬轉身在衣櫃裡翻找,隨後取出一條繡滿薔薇的鵝黃色中袖旗袍。356Please respect copyright.PENANArwINafxT52
356Please respect copyright.PENANAX2y2CmtqLx
郭陶陶從鏡子的倒影瞥見她手中的旗袍,連忙說:「張媽,你忘了嗎?我不穿旗袍。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAKciuBKyMyC
「那……」張美寧將旗袍放回衣櫃,「您要哪一條裙子?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAifrGOvHxCx
粉嫩的玉指往又一揮,指著衣櫃說:「那條方領的黃格子洋裙,最左邊那條,看見了嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAcF3mW91A2A
356Please respect copyright.PENANAlDoSSjd1ZA
張美寧點點頭,轉身取下玉指選中的洋裙,小心翼翼地捧到她家小姐面前。356Please respect copyright.PENANALPSJ1Ahu6T
356Please respect copyright.PENANAG3BY3m5LXy
郭陶陶換上那條黃白格子長裙,在鏡子前轉了兩圈,然後又在梳妝台前坐下。356Please respect copyright.PENANALwJELI38Gh
356Please respect copyright.PENANAQT896wGiYW
「鞋子呢?」張美寧問。356Please respect copyright.PENANAwRJQCdJkPj
「白色粗跟那雙吧,鞋面有串珍珠……前幾天我回國時穿的那雙。」郭陶陶捏著粉撲,邊往臉上抹粉邊說。356Please respect copyright.PENANAnDa7cFZyZM
「好,那我先下去準備早餐。」張美寧說完便退出房間。356Please respect copyright.PENANAlMXjWEbIEt
356Please respect copyright.PENANAMpFpVGz3cR
抹完臉後,郭陶陶又拿起眉筆在眉上描描畫畫,然後從化妝台的抽屜中取今夏最流行的薔薇粉唇膏。她對著鏡子嘟起嘴巴,輕塗兩片薄唇,又用無名指輕點嘴唇,讓它們均勻地鋪在唇瓣上。356Please respect copyright.PENANAcMk4AdEzAu
356Please respect copyright.PENANAudKV0bqUeH
放下唇膏,她又開始搗騰頭髮。一頭烏黑的長捲髮扎成高馬尾,再把馬尾繞在頭頂,然後用髮夾固定,簡單的高髮髻便扎好了。她歪著頭看鏡中的自己,總感覺差了些什麼,又望著梳妝台前琳瑯滿目的首飾好一會兒,隨後拿起一個碎鑽髮箍。356Please respect copyright.PENANAlqfkdIVbRV
356Please respect copyright.PENANACZJawFH7Nw
望著鏡中精神奕奕的自己,郭陶陶滿意地笑了笑,提著白色珍珠小方包便走下樓。張美寧也已準備好早餐,正站在飯廳等待小姐下樓用膳。356Please respect copyright.PENANAfszBqYzz8q
356Please respect copyright.PENANAxnQYl2pQUi
淡黃色的長裙猶如夏日清晨溫和的陽光,高挺的髮髻與小山眉在圓臉上意外地合襯,整體的搭配既婉約又不失俏皮。356Please respect copyright.PENANAshTTqjfImr
356Please respect copyright.PENANAV3qxeWwFEW
張美寧望著郭陶陶從樓梯口緩緩向自己走來,心中竟有些感觸。三年未見,從前喜歡依偎在自己懷裡的小豆丁如今也十八歲了,逐漸出落成亭亭玉立的大姑娘。356Please respect copyright.PENANABiLVCqx9NL
356Please respect copyright.PENANANY8GIUKNR3
「張媽,看什麼呢?這麼入神。」356Please respect copyright.PENANA2bqaFedmzD
「沒有……小姐坐吧!」356Please respect copyright.PENANArWRvKNlA7Y
「好,張媽你也坐。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAcTBP1OoaC8
「我就不坐了。小姐趕緊吃早餐吧,冷了可不好。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAhYzD7rMuK2
「你要不陪我吃早飯,我便不吃了。」356Please respect copyright.PENANA1Gyaw7dd74
356Please respect copyright.PENANAfpf4McgdUG
郭陶陶起身將張美寧按坐在椅子上,又遞給她一個肉包子,不料張美寧卻又站起來。356Please respect copyright.PENANAZQsKELjHoO
356Please respect copyright.PENANAfi4je37PCj
「小姐,這不合規矩。」356Please respect copyright.PENANANiwy2mkA7p
「小時候不都是你喂我吃飯,難道張媽不喜歡小豆丁了?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAtfa7asXw9u
356Please respect copyright.PENANAaLVLpdnLUd
張美寧拗不過她家小姐,只得在飯桌前坐下。356Please respect copyright.PENANA2vH44qMeUn
356Please respect copyright.PENANAw8Ae4Fm2tX
「小姐小時候可最討厭別人叫你小豆丁了。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAMv0hazil8o
「哼,我現在不是小豆丁了,所以我不怕!」356Please respect copyright.PENANA4GdFDa35g6
「對,現在不是小豆丁,是漂亮的大姑娘了。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAKBjRHvYxRz
356Please respect copyright.PENANABbZRxofY3L
郭陶陶看了看左手腕上的手錶,已是九點了,趕緊咬了幾口麵包。356Please respect copyright.PENANAuSgEYk3Jiq
356Please respect copyright.PENANAstn1m5xeDc
「哎喲,慢點吃……」張美寧在一旁看得著急。356Please respect copyright.PENANA5rSnIM12rq
「不行,我已經遲到了,再不走琇瑩會生氣的。」郭陶陶又灌了幾口牛奶。356Please respect copyright.PENANADYeTlfvBKi
「司機就在門口候著,不著急。」張美寧輕撫她的後背。356Please respect copyright.PENANAFYNYY3QOZi
356Please respect copyright.PENANAXbp84Jumme
郭陶陶推開張媽的手便往門口跑去,張美寧連忙跟上前。356Please respect copyright.PENANAz8IDNd4jMc
356Please respect copyright.PENANALCrYg3vb04
「張媽,我先走了,今晚六點前會回來。」郭陶陶換上張美寧提前在門邊放好的高跟鞋便往紅洋樓外跑去。356Please respect copyright.PENANAKoC7g3GAeJ
「慢點!」張美寧追了出去。356Please respect copyright.PENANA9wX20JZ6dY
356Please respect copyright.PENANApoNDI23rxa
郭陶陶坐上停在紅洋樓外的汽車,朝她的張媽揮揮手便揚長而去。356Please respect copyright.PENANASBG0pQO0bG
356Please respect copyright.PENANAFiptQOlRJr
九點三十時分,司機在一座兩層高的灰墻青瓦建築前放下她。「菀青軒」的黑板金字牌匾下,兩扇紅木門大開,此起彼落的弦樂胡琴聲不斷飄出紅木窗外。356Please respect copyright.PENANAbLQ6p2brTQ
356Please respect copyright.PENANAbTnNXMuCrY
郭陶陶輕步跨進菀青軒,忍不住四處張望,她可好些年沒來過這些戲園茶館聽戲了。356Please respect copyright.PENANASOtNlIT7yc
356Please respect copyright.PENANAzVAYz0brF6
「哎呀!」戲台上傳來一把嬌滴滴的女聲。356Please respect copyright.PENANAnNJni2bCFJ
356Please respect copyright.PENANA1q3DsK4wNM
女子剛哀歎完,戲台旁一排排的樂師又敲鼓又拉胡琴。356Please respect copyright.PENANAoPJ0gsspUQ
356Please respect copyright.PENANAtRyFVPRG4D
台上的女子伴著音樂唱了起來:「見血書果然真悲傷,衣衾上寫的是血氣紅光。字行行大伯的筆跡在上,捨親生救侄兒萬古流芳。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAoGVI4mL2ny
女子唱完又念道:「吓,兒吓,為嬸母,將你收在身旁,以為己子,逃往你母舅那里安身,不知你意下如何?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAApmZZXgjEj
356Please respect copyright.PENANAmLYaXD8kwc
不過郭陶陶並不在意台上的人在念唱些什麼,因為她還沒找到楊琇瑩。356Please respect copyright.PENANAJDBTrwiGle
356Please respect copyright.PENANAiXcL8BuOri
菀青軒分為兩層,上層為大大小小的包間,底層則整齊地排列了二十來張紅木八仙桌,每桌可坐四至六人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAAACefus1Qi
356Please respect copyright.PENANAAQx3sesjoJ
昏暗的燈光下,目光所及盡是烏泱泱的人影,郭陶陶壓根分不清誰是誰。琇瑩喜歡熱鬧,應當是坐在前方,她邊想邊往戲台前走去。果然,最前排正中央座位上有顆燙著西式宮廷捲髮的腦袋正隨著音樂搖晃。356Please respect copyright.PENANAeSQUICfAnu
356Please respect copyright.PENANAc2eTK3VfHM
「兒謹遵嬸母命怎敢達坳,雙膝裡跪塵埃珠淚兩行。從先前兒就是嬸母親養,久以後兒成名不忘我娘。」戲台上又換一小兒唱著。356Please respect copyright.PENANAv3GCpsxDbO
356Please respect copyright.PENANAIeF2FbuI9A
「琇瑩。」郭陶陶在楊琇瑩身旁坐下。356Please respect copyright.PENANAN8GOoAIigE
楊琇瑩瞧了她一眼,笑著說:「喲,你還挺聰明的,居然能找到我。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAsSiNZg1T0C
「這戲唱的是哪齣?」郭陶陶四處張望,356Please respect copyright.PENANAYCPqGBcC7k
356Please respect copyright.PENANAGnQXY4FP2E
「兒吓。」戲台上的女子甩了甩水袖,又唱了起來,「我的兒後話休要講,快快地逃走免遭禍禍殃。金命土命走為上,再遇賊兵命必亡。奔到潼關把心放,見了你母舅再作商量。」356Please respect copyright.PENANArtn9PBXHfJ
356Please respect copyright.PENANAbprdCm4Gr8
「台上那女子俊俏不俊俏?」楊琇瑩挑眉道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAMAbIZkLsoz
356Please respect copyright.PENANAAN6Ay1DrrL
郭陶陶將視線從楊琇瑩身上移開,仔細地打量起戲台上的旦角。356Please respect copyright.PENANAAAdCimBTXg
356Please respect copyright.PENANA4XHXi7W0ct
戲台上的娘子滿頭珠簪翠釵,額前的七個小彎各戴了一顆紅寶石,鬢邊粉色絨花輕曳。一對細長的柳葉眉下塗了一層由深至淺的紅油彩,厚重的長眼線使娘子圓睜的雙眸變得細長,兩瓣嬌艷欲滴的紅唇微張,卻是欲說還休。356Please respect copyright.PENANAqwNE2E3ZnT
356Please respect copyright.PENANAXI66bDhRtB
娘子一身藍帔對襟長袍,下裳著月牙白褶裙,雍容華貴的牡丹花在衣裙上堂堂皇皇綻放。她將右手放在眼下,垂落在地的一簾水袖猶如她即將傾出眼眶的淚水,纖細白淨的左手輕柔地在半空畫了個圈,反手翹起蘭花指。356Please respect copyright.PENANA1rdkwYFJOG
356Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0cz4l5VV3
此娘子真真俊俏……356Please respect copyright.PENANARUQ7vzibMd
356Please respect copyright.PENANAixoWGhrZlY
「喂!」楊琇瑩搖了搖身旁看得入神的郭陶陶,忍不住用手遮住嘴偷笑。356Please respect copyright.PENANAcaNk5QVXIR
「這到底唱得是哪齣戲呀?」回過神的郭陶陶又問。356Please respect copyright.PENANA5f0xETZPpa
356Please respect copyright.PENANAEwcNwAaNQW
「鄧元。」戲台上的女旦喊道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAv0Chw3KeFo
「母親。」小兒回答。356Please respect copyright.PENANA6ms3mqTPTZ
356Please respect copyright.PENANAyCz88h3yis
楊琇瑩朝郭陶陶眨眨眼,並不回答她的問題,只說這戲要唱完了。356Please respect copyright.PENANAGnrZTnzKZD
356Please respect copyright.PENANAEPIV1sz5Hv
「我兒快走。」台上的女子又說。356Please respect copyright.PENANATalchhCN8Y
「快走快走。」小兒牽緊女子的手。356Please respect copyright.PENANAYa13fEB1Xm
356Please respect copyright.PENANAUAiULuPrt8
「好!好!」台上的女子與小兒伴著高亢的音樂緩緩退入幕後,茶館內隨即響起如雷貫耳的掌聲。356Please respect copyright.PENANA3rqOE7sIxp
356Please respect copyright.PENANAMcVjo0YDrJ
「你在這裡等我,我先去後台找許懿祥拍照簽名!」楊琇瑩彎著身子準備離開。356Please respect copyright.PENANAm5jjGUw2uS
「你要找誰?誰是許懿祥?」郭陶陶只覺得一頭霧水,連忙抓住身旁的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAbkxyHKfZhL
356Please respect copyright.PENANAc06p1clLaT
楊琇瑩拍了拍郭陶陶的肩,頭也不回地往前走去。郭陶陶被人群擠在後方,待人群散去後,已是瞧不見楊琇瑩的蹤影。她走到戲台邊掀起帷幕,往裡小聲喊了一句「琇瑩」,但並沒有人回復。於是郭陶陶又躡手躡腳地走上樓梯,來到空蕩蕩的後台,她眼前只有五排微微發光的帶燈梳妝鏡,還有倒影在鏡中的無數個自己。356Please respect copyright.PENANAoRIpB80HYX
356Please respect copyright.PENANAQ07BB6yjG2
忽然,最後一排化妝鏡傳來幾聲珠翠的碰撞聲。356Please respect copyright.PENANAA61hSnHGm9
356Please respect copyright.PENANAPYJLXgWL0u
「琇瑩?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAajdQK61rrL
356Please respect copyright.PENANAuxlBpVA30b
郭陶陶猛地轉身,只見有位穿著裡衣的男子正背對著自己。男子見身後的人不是叫喚自己,便又往前走去。356Please respect copyright.PENANAWWzBs4FNJ6
356Please respect copyright.PENANAQGjtnlYxZC
「先生。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAycjEUqivKW
356Please respect copyright.PENANA55JLlRQqro
郭陶陶拾起地上的翠玉簪,男子轉過身來,倆人四目相投良久。356Please respect copyright.PENANAdd8dorC6Jk
356Please respect copyright.PENANAwb2XfCMJH9
男子穿著裡衣,微微拱起的三七分劉海垂在左眉前後,露出右額。清秀的臉龐還帶著紅粉油彩妝,懷中抱著一套靛藍帔服和叮噹作響的珠翠。356Please respect copyright.PENANATpaMzQwy3G
356Please respect copyright.PENANAkXYtMXqO9O
356Please respect copyright.PENANA1aKd231D0t
「原來不是俊俏的娘子……」戲台上嫵媚的女旦與眼前男子的身影在郭陶陶腦海中重疊。356Please respect copyright.PENANA3acwom4LR0
「姑娘可是在叫我?」男子問。356Please respect copyright.PENANA5FcHWiJ600
「哦,對,給你。」郭陶陶走上前,將手中的翠玉簪遞給他。356Please respect copyright.PENANAWdi61972HK
356Please respect copyright.PENANAtdgrmNfAb8
男子雙手接過她手中的簪子,正打算離開卻又被她叫住。356Please respect copyright.PENANAoOxWKFem9f
356Please respect copyright.PENANAyH6pdw200r
「請問……你認識許……許懿……」郭陶陶雙目緊閉,努力地回想楊琇瑩要找的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAb0SZ9bGNcx
「姑娘是想找許懿祥師哥是嗎?」男子問。356Please respect copyright.PENANAThFzHeB2xd
郭陶陶搖搖頭,想了想又點點頭。356Please respect copyright.PENANAvGwXTnb0CX
「許師哥在另一邊後台,我帶你過去吧。」男子騰出左手往前一伸。356Please respect copyright.PENANAoL6WaLPHTv
356Please respect copyright.PENANAp1zc9pKHre
郭陶陶乖乖地跟在男子身後,兩人掀開梳妝鏡後的黑帷幕,又往前走了幾步,在一塊紅絨幕簾前停下。356Please respect copyright.PENANAVCja7q7wal
356Please respect copyright.PENANATd3Q1FMras
「裡面有很多人,我便不進去了,很多姑娘圍著的男子便是許師哥了。」 男子邊說邊替她掀起帷幕。356Please respect copyright.PENANAmH3q5CbjkZ
「好的,謝謝先生。」郭陶陶朝他微微一笑,然後走進後台。356Please respect copyright.PENANAb80Eiifo45
356Please respect copyright.PENANAU68bEFPcZv
果然,這邊可比剛剛那邊熱鬧許多。成群男女將後台幾位穿著戲服、滿臉黑紅油彩的男子圍住,又是同他們握手,又是拿著紙筆請求他們給自己簽名,就連先前戲台上的小兒也有不少女子圍著。356Please respect copyright.PENANAAhGit7uoK2
356Please respect copyright.PENANABgqBzx0avB
「琇瑩!」郭陶陶在人群中找到了楊琇瑩。356Please respect copyright.PENANAEJINknmPMI
「你等我一下,很快!」楊琇瑩瞥了她一眼,手忙腳亂地從手提包裡拿出紙筆。356Please respect copyright.PENANA0fIlsGoxkO
「你怎麼都不等我?」郭陶陶噘嘴嘟囔著,她只覺得這裡亂哄哄的。356Please respect copyright.PENANARARnrC0GJB
356Please respect copyright.PENANA0IcVcYngO4
楊琇瑩排在胖女人身後,她們跟前站了一位穿著李子色戲服,頭戴黑色書生帽,額中一抹紅的男子。356Please respect copyright.PENANAor7HV43cpE
356Please respect copyright.PENANAWFrqwrvsC4
楊琇瑩將手中紙筆遞給那男子,柔聲問:「許先生,請問您可以給我簽名嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANANGyjvbmw7S
「當然。」男子笑著接過紙筆,在紙上寫寫畫畫。356Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ4WeN2XkG
356Please respect copyright.PENANA4y5np0gqC0
楊琇瑩接過男子的簽名,得意忘形地轉身離開,排在她身後的幾位姑娘便迫不及待地迎上前,拿著紙筆請那位叫許懿祥的男子替她們簽名。356Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rj6YIaXYk
356Please respect copyright.PENANAGD5yXRAb7A
「你等等我……」郭陶陶又被人群擠在後方。356Please respect copyright.PENANAmR0QLzQ5db
「陶陶!」楊琇瑩忽然想起被她遺忘在身後的郭陶陶。356Please respect copyright.PENANAeSCPDorN0K
「楊琇瑩,我生氣了!」郭陶陶放棄掙扎,她也被姑娘圍得死死的。356Please respect copyright.PENANAZhjS5TkAeW
「不生氣,不生氣。」楊琇瑩將她從人群中扯出來,「我請你吃飯,好嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAuPF9pf2xNw
356Please respect copyright.PENANAcwSUnHcBil
郭陶陶噘著嘴走出菀青軒,氣鼓鼓地坐上停在街口旁的郭府汽車上。356Please respect copyright.PENANAcc2nZ4Qco6
356Please respect copyright.PENANAvNmrlhnRGC
「哎呀,別生氣嘛。」楊琇瑩也坐上郭府的汽車。356Please respect copyright.PENANAhWcy6yOwAK
郭陶陶雙手抱在胸前,扭頭看車窗外的行人,不願回答楊琇瑩的話。356Please respect copyright.PENANAIeYwHwCIb5
「小姐要去哪兒?」司機察覺到她家千金的怒氣。356Please respect copyright.PENANAirTwUGBxNt
「佑中飯店。」楊琇瑩搶著說。356Please respect copyright.PENANABlnvLwGsb5

司機望著倒後鏡點點頭,發動了汽車,一股腦往城南開去。356Please respect copyright.PENANAPmypY6tQ4i
356Please respect copyright.PENANA9Iw51zPgv7
「誰說我要去佑中飯店的?我不去,我要下車!」郭陶陶氣急敗壞地瞪了眼司機。356Please respect copyright.PENANAjj2gFcVemH
「哎喲,姑奶奶,我錯了。你不是想知道今天演的是哪齣戲了嗎?我全告訴你。」楊琇瑩側著頭,耐心地安慰道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAGzqmIcuKy1
「我現在不想知道了。」郭陶陶趴在車窗上看街邊形形色色的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAQwHcamuLkA
「那……」楊琇瑩轉轉眼珠,又說,「你可知道那俊俏的旦角其實是男兒身嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAcu0FJxuXDh
「這我早就知道了。」郭陶陶不屑地翻了個白眼。356Please respect copyright.PENANANiW3190Qm7
「你怎麼知道的?」楊琇瑩目瞪口呆。 356Please respect copyright.PENANAfA93wu0YOC
「就不告訴你!」郭陶陶嘴角上揚,露出一副勝利者的姿態。356Please respect copyright.PENANAELTuImqxi6
楊琇瑩想了想,握緊她的手說:「你剛才不會是瞧見他了吧?蒼天吶……」356Please respect copyright.PENANAruIPQbIFET
356Please respect copyright.PENANAFFyjlp65bh
郭陶陶笑著點頭,但就是不肯告訴楊琇瑩她與那俊俏娘子相遇的經過。356Please respect copyright.PENANA8iw0WulVx7
356Please respect copyright.PENANAeRuyxWsugh
郭府的車在大街小巷來回穿梭,最終在一座三樓高的紅墻綠瓦建築前停下。一別三年,郭陶陶再次來到日思夜想的佑中飯店,而楊琇瑩還在不依不饒地想知道剛剛在菀青軒後台發生的一切,可她僅是笑而不語。356Please respect copyright.PENANAn3KEaRVuAr
356Please respect copyright.PENANAxsGyqN3RNn
佑中飯店的服務員見北平兩大千金同時光臨,急忙爭先迎上去,將二人引到二樓的包廂裡。356Please respect copyright.PENANAdo4KJF9dFT
356Please respect copyright.PENANAS44H3kSKrl
「我要吃烤鴨、豌豆黃還有芸豆卷。」郭陶陶剛坐下便不停念叨。356Please respect copyright.PENANAq71WurlDOW
「好,你想吃什麼就吃什麼。」楊琇瑩將菜單遞給她。356Please respect copyright.PENANAWQtMOiXaZo
「對了,茶要鐵觀音,謝謝。」郭陶陶補充。356Please respect copyright.PENANAkGGzhb7g5n
「除了郭小姐說的那幾樣,還要這個魚,還有這個排骨。」楊琇瑩在菜單上比劃給服務員看。356Please respect copyright.PENANAyCAB9JDh1v
356Please respect copyright.PENANAjT7Xj9RufZ
服務員帶著菜單朝二人微微一躬,轉身退出了包廂。356Please respect copyright.PENANAKccwgABrTW
356Please respect copyright.PENANAmABWZkZe17
「美麗又可愛的陶陶……」楊琇瑩眨巴著雙眸,側頭望著身旁許久未見的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAWllQxGOqaA
郭陶陶伸手捏住楊琇瑩的臉,笑著說:「好,只要你答應我以後不會再拋下我,我便一一告訴你。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAn9uQuewVLW
「好,我答應你!」楊琇瑩任由她捏著,只一個勁地點頭。356Please respect copyright.PENANAppJ9WLsFD1
郭陶陶放下手,聳肩道:「其實呀,就是我去後台找你時,誤打誤撞碰見了他。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAzgORTDyl4m
「就這樣?」楊琇瑩吃驚地張著嘴巴。356Please respect copyright.PENANA0VQnu561b5
郭陶陶點點頭,肯定地說:「對,就這樣。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAQHA1qCuSwz
「可你怎麼確定那男子便是戲台上的花旦?」楊琇瑩依舊覺得難以置信。356Please respect copyright.PENANAFf1KPPkF40
郭陶陶撐著頭說:「他臉上帶著妝,手中還抱著先前在台上穿的戲服,那可不就是他嘛!」356Please respect copyright.PENANAIsZtBBW4vg
楊琇瑩咽了咽口水,又問道:「那你……和他說話了?」356Please respect copyright.PENANA2y3ep6DdZm
郭陶陶不明所以,笑著點頭:「是呀,是他帶我找到你的。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAC6LVMwdVE8
「蒼天!」楊琇瑩激動得從椅子上跳了起來。356Please respect copyright.PENANAI1wmJeJoca
356Please respect copyright.PENANAs98rtzR0Qq
「不好意思,久等了……」服務員湊巧推門而入,他大概被楊家千金嚇到了,放下飯菜便頭也不抬地走了。356Please respect copyright.PENANAKVfNyT2TzJ
356Please respect copyright.PENANAuPl4w41Rt5
楊琇瑩意識到自己失態,急忙裝作無事發生,緩緩坐下。356Please respect copyright.PENANAlLkqvL1gAZ
356Please respect copyright.PENANA8FMHFeoIhq
「在美國這幾年我可饞中國菜了。」郭陶陶夾起一塊烤鴨放進嘴中,「佑中飯店的飯菜果真還如三年前那般好吃。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAAM6A2DfwJr
「你居然和秦懿晟說話了……」楊琇瑩望著身旁吃得津津有味的郭陶陶說。356Please respect copyright.PENANAqgXMAnP0H4
「秦懿晟是誰?」郭陶陶喝了口鐵觀音,「那個俊俏娘子?」356Please respect copyright.PENANARa51Yg5XqJ
「郭陶陶,」楊琇瑩搶走郭陶陶手中的茶水,語重心長地說,「你實現了眾多姑娘的夢想。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAoy4MfBCcY2
郭陶陶點點頭,夾了塊豌豆黃塞進楊琇瑩嘴裡:「秦懿晟,還有那個什麼許懿祥,他們都是明星嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAZdKwfFgzaB
「不是……」楊琇瑩搖搖頭,喝了口茶道:「他們不是明星,是相聲藝人。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAldWT4WSocL
「相聲藝人?那今天早上為什麼看的是大戲而不是相聲?」郭陶陶夾了塊芸豆卷放在楊琇瑩碗中。356Please respect copyright.PENANAlEssiQPzOR
「他們特意花了一個月時間與梨園戲子共排了一齣大戲,為的就是慶祝日本投降。」楊琇瑩艱難地將豌豆黃嚥下。356Please respect copyright.PENANAh8LGq3Jrd5
「原來相聲藝人戲曲也可以唱得那麼好。」郭陶陶夾了一塊烤鴨給自己。356Please respect copyright.PENANAiJ55xTqe60
「他們也要學些戲曲,又適逢日本投降這個普天同慶的喜事,便同大家熱鬧一番。」楊琇瑩夾了塊魚肉給郭陶陶。356Please respect copyright.PENANAQRfkDhR2bX
「那秦懿……秦懿晟和許懿……祥,你更喜歡哪個?」郭陶陶挑眉道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAdqiMt0HM5f
楊琇瑩認真地想了想想,開口道:「若說模樣,秦懿晟自然是略勝一籌。可若說氣度,許懿祥更是英姿颯爽。」 356Please respect copyright.PENANAAZWlSL6dBE
356Please respect copyright.PENANAUE7OpzIMyp
郭陶陶見楊琇瑩已掉入她的陷阱裡,便笑著放下碗筷追問。356Please respect copyright.PENANAyu6BTbfXFz
356Please respect copyright.PENANALJ7ExVEWrn
「那你到底喜歡誰多些?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAM4j9qqi5NY
「許懿祥吧……」356Please respect copyright.PENANAOqkayodqHe
「那懷德哥哥呢?」356Please respect copyright.PENANArT2ZSiNhMi
「你怎麼提起張懷德了……那是不同的喜歡……」356Please respect copyright.PENANAh4ps1xdAdI
356Please respect copyright.PENANAuAIjN93evt
楊琇瑩一聽「懷德」二字,白裡透紅的臉頰瞬間漲紅,似是鮮血要破殼而出。她最是聽不得「張睿瑜」和「張懷德」這六字,從十八歲訂婚等到二十一歲歸國,她已三年未見過這個人了。她只知道他今日在南京,下個月又去了重慶,再下個月或許便在山西,但更多時候她連他是死是活也未可知。356Please respect copyright.PENANAIrTl5DSPYE
356Please respect copyright.PENANAulRYQOWr8o
「那你們打算什麼時候結婚?」356Please respect copyright.PENANApd8av0R6NB
「如今抗戰勝利,國內局勢也逐漸穩定,應該明年結婚吧。」356Please respect copyright.PENANABhKqBSwjXa
356Please respect copyright.PENANA14RCyZuxsH
郭陶陶捧著熱乎乎的茶杯點頭,望著一臉嬌羞的楊琇瑩,又深深歎了一口氣。356Please respect copyright.PENANArzgbmG2Z2z
356Please respect copyright.PENANAJ6GfxxbxKO
「你說,人一定要結婚嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAz0nTBtDCI9
「哎喲,不知不覺我們的小豆丁陶陶也十八歲了,到了該選夫婿的年紀了!」356Please respect copyright.PENANAAWKVTGEO6V
「父親說等我把婚事定下了再讓我回美國讀大學,不然這輩子都別想離開中國。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAbu4glYujNP
356Please respect copyright.PENANARH0UGWExZb
的確,將婚事定下是她是次歸國的首要任務,這是父親的命令。356Please respect copyright.PENANAUYbQYxzZdu
356Please respect copyright.PENANAjbziJINpo0
餐桌上的食物最終被一掃而空,郭陶陶滿足地摸了摸圓滾的肚子,與楊琇瑩打打鬧鬧地走出佑中飯店。兩人穿過兩條街,走進十字街口旁的「北平大戲院」,買了兩張《羅拉秘史》的電影票。356Please respect copyright.PENANAyxh8Y4LtfO
356Please respect copyright.PENANAwGYfVAY1fA
黑不溜秋的電影院內,郭陶陶一雙杏眼眨巴不停,她還在想早上發生的事。356Please respect copyright.PENANAf3Kr8oxU73
356Please respect copyright.PENANAa4zLU5faCk
「秦懿晟和許懿祥是兄弟嗎?為什麼他們名字都有『懿』字?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAjVqS1v8Ce2
「郭小姐,你是吃飯吃傻了嗎?一個姓秦,一個姓許,那能是兄弟嗎?」356Please respect copyright.PENANANWEmcmxbLI
「哎呀,我怎麼把這個給忘了。」 356Please respect copyright.PENANAdheUX8A7KL
356Please respect copyright.PENANAyxVZ9Tx5nA
郭陶陶還想問些什麼,卻被楊琇瑩「噓」的一聲打斷了,說是要專心看電影。可她對屏幕上播放的電影一點興趣也沒有,這部電影她去年在美國便看過了,比起眼前黑白的電影,她更想看今早在菀青軒裡穿著五顏六色戲服唱戲的那些人。356Please respect copyright.PENANAhxrDRjNfCM
356Please respect copyright.PENANArYGiiD1mmw
在伸手不見五指的電影院裡坐了一個半小時,郭陶陶險些睡著,只有楊琇瑩看得津津有味。356Please respect copyright.PENANAYQyRIlB2E9
356Please respect copyright.PENANAUmYRYbv8UJ
「男主角很俊俏,對吧?」剛走出戲院,楊琇瑩便拉著郭陶陶問。356Please respect copyright.PENANAYFTCWnwfFt
「俊俏,真真俊俏。不過……」郭陶陶敷衍著。356Please respect copyright.PENANAwEw4tgwkCn
「你想問什麼,問吧!」楊琇瑩知道她這個妹妹喜歡打破砂鍋問到底。356Please respect copyright.PENANAfnRw2rCWbl
郭陶陶不好意思地搔頭抓耳,又問:「那為什麼他們名字都有『懿』字?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAm5iSJJPTqY
「湊巧不行嗎?」楊琇瑩笑道。356Please respect copyright.PENANAtKAjR8jeEC
「好吧……」郭陶陶鼓著嘴點頭,只要是琇瑩說的話她便都信。356Please respect copyright.PENANA6G8r3EroAa
「真笨,騙你的!」楊琇瑩朝她做了鬼臉,「『懿』字是他們拜入師門時,師傅給他們取的科字。」356Please respect copyright.PENANAGsqkKjUFRQ
郭陶陶恍然大悟,連連點頭:「難怪秦懿晟一口一個『師哥』稱呼許懿祥!這麼說的話,『懿晟』和『懿祥』是他們的藝名,對吧?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAQJkesX3PLR
「真聰明!」楊琇瑩伸手輕刮她的鼻尖。356Please respect copyright.PENANAt333r9FzBg
356Please respect copyright.PENANAT8hsoSzgxk
懸在半空中的紅玉鐲在太陽下璀璨生輝,郭陶陶一把抓住楊琇瑩的手腕,對紅玉鐲瞧了又瞧。356Please respect copyright.PENANAsuNOY52Hp2
356Please respect copyright.PENANAAEhi7jO9g9
「這不是我們第一年去美國留學時我送你的紅玉鐲嗎?」郭陶陶對楊琇瑩戴著她送的玉鐲感到滿意。356Please respect copyright.PENANA23uUEGq3VD
楊琇瑩攤開雙手,在她面前轉了一圈,笑著問:「還有呢?」356Please respect copyright.PENANAoNd76GskKg
356Please respect copyright.PENANAFOl4DNUwJf
郭陶陶往後一站,認真地打量跟前的人。356Please respect copyright.PENANA1EVhs8ljAJ
356Please respect copyright.PENANALRjnJwJ39Y
一頭西式宮廷捲髮被綁在腦後,走起路來總是搖搖晃晃。耳垂上戴了一副雪白的珍珠耳環,墨綠色的中袖長裙搭配黑色高跟涼鞋,手腕上那紅玉鐲是一抹最亮麗的色彩。356Please respect copyright.PENANAJEfxcjL1og
356Please respect copyright.PENANAkgFoejS083
「還有那副珍珠耳環,是你去年回國前我送你的。」郭陶陶牽起楊琇瑩的手,打趣地說,「一年不見,楊家姐姐是越發漂亮了。」356Please respect copyright.PENANA9DDzrdnpfR
「你今天嘴巴怎麼抹了蜜似的?淨說好話給我聽。」楊琇瑩笑著挽上她的手臂。356Please respect copyright.PENANA2NExqaFBgJ
「我今早和司機說五點來佑中飯店接我,我們現在走過去也就差不多了。」郭陶陶伸手捏了捏楊琇瑩的臉道。356Please respect copyright.PENANA8EWb92DUyi
356Please respect copyright.PENANAuKXl15Hksz
兩姐妹又從電影院原路返回,一路上郭陶陶總忍不住東張西望,北平的一切對她來說都是新奇的。356Please respect copyright.PENANAri3tfSJwH3
356Please respect copyright.PENANArYAavzT2En
這裡比三年前又多了好些西式建築,教堂也越蓋越多,蜿蜒曲折的電車軌道鋪滿整座城市。空中縱橫交錯的電線猶如一張大網,將那西裝革履的青年才俊、婀娜多姿的旗袍麗人、滿頭大汗的黃包車夫、腼腆的賣花小女孩……統統織進歲月裡。而那始終如一的太陽日復一日地將光灑向大地,或許它也曾渴望能為這片千瘡百孔的中華大地帶來些許溫暖。
