这时，书房门被轻轻推开。
林远山走了进来。
他本想看看劝说的结果如何，却见王耀正站在书案前，孙女捧著一幅画，脸上带著难得一见的笑容。
那笑容轻鬆自然，是他许久未曾见过的。
面色虽然仍旧苍白，但眉眼间的鬱气散了大半。
“曾叔祖。”
“祖父。”
两人同时开口叫人。
林远山点点头，走近几步，目光落在那幅画上。
他眉头微挑，眼中闪过惊讶。
画技虽还稚嫩，但笔法稳健，构图灵动。
不止形准，还有几分神韵在其中。
“这是……耀儿画的？”
王耀点头道：“曾叔祖，我给姑姑画的，还行吧？”
“岂止还行。”
林远山由衷讚嘆：“笔意已见气象，假以时日，定是要青出於蓝啊。”
他说著，目光又落回画上，看著画中恬淡寧静的孙女，再想起方才她脸上那抹难得的笑意，心中某处软了下来。
原本想再劝劝的话，忽然就咽了回去。
算了，孩子开心就好。
不想嫁人……就再等一年吧。
今年刚及笄，也不是那么著急。逼得太紧，反倒伤身。
老人脸上露出温和的笑，皱纹舒展开来：“你们玩吧，我去前头看看。”
门又被轻轻带上。
林溪小心地將画纸移开，寻来一块乾净的木板垫著，放在窗边通风处晾乾。
动作轻柔，像在安置什么珍宝。
阳光照在未乾的墨跡上，泛著润润的光。
……
日子一天天过去，转眼又过了几个月。
秋意渐浓，桂香散尽，寒露降，霜叶红。
林溪的身子仍是有些虚弱。郎中看了好几回，换了好几副方子，效果都不大，只说需静养，莫要忧思。
这段时间，林家也不再提她的亲事了。
……
这日晌午，王家画铺来了位特殊的客人。
是个游方女冠，三十许年纪，身著青色道袍，头戴逍遥巾，面容清癯，眼神却澄澈通透。
她进店並非买画，而是化缘。
王夫人心善，给了些米粮。
女冠道谢后没急著走，目光在店內扫过，落在墙上一幅山水小品上，驻足端详。
那是王耀的写生之作，画的是白河镇外的远山暮色。
端详片刻，女冠眼中闪过一丝讶异：“这画可是贵府小公子所作？”
王守业正在柜檯后理帐，闻言抬起头，有些惊讶：“道长如何得知？”
“笔意虽稚嫩，气韵却已初成。”
女冠微笑，手指虚点：“尤其是这山石的皴法，颇有几分以形写神的意思。”

“不过这船这水这小雀，不似成人刻意雕琢，倒像是童子天真烂漫，自然流露。”
“小小年纪对画道有如此造诣，如此追求，想来日后，必成大家。”
这时里屋传来一个孩子的声音：“我是一个画画的天才。”
“这孩子，专心临摹！”
王守业朝里屋嚷了一嗓子，转头对女冠笑。
听了对方这番话，他也是心中欢喜，便又与她多聊了几句。
女冠告辞时，忽然想起什么，问道：“贫道今日在镇东头一户人家门外，见一少女，眉宇间清气凝聚，却又带著一丝病气。不知可否告知，那是谁家姑娘？”
王守业想了想：“镇东头……可是林家？”
“似是姓林。”
“那应该是林先生的孙女，林溪。”
