第五章表姐弟拜寿勾情亲姑嫂贺喜被奸(1/12)

诗曰：古时男女说亲迎，来世风流妄缔情；桃花星是命中照，故今才郎打扮乔。任尔说明多不忌，阳台暮暮与朝朝；嫂既多情非更妖，羡君何福可能消。
                                                                                                                                                                话说文英自赴约归来，只见家中什物并妹子娇莲的衣服首饰窃去。那娇莲的面貌与文英一些不差，又因长成得早，身材也恰与文英一样，只有脚儿大小不同。
                                                                                                                                                                这年十月初四日，他母亲李氏六十寿诞。李氏有个外母女，小名唤做桂萼，嫁在王进士家做媳妇。他的标致与娇莲差不多，其年是十八岁。阿婆是个寡居，只生得他夫王元炳一个。
                                                                                                                                                                姑娘唤做琼娥，十七岁了，已曾许了陈家。姑嫂甚是投契。桂萼甫与元炳结褵半载，炳即患弱症而亡，媳妇也是寡居。及至十月里文英母亲生日，李氏叫人去接桂萼，桂萼禀知婆婆要到姨娘家去拜寿。
                                                                                                                                                                陈氏道：“只好去一两日，姑娘许我家侄儿，过了五日就要行聘过来，须要你一回料理事务。”
                                                                                                                                                                桂萼道：“晓得，今日去，后日就回。”
                                                                                                                                                                遂上轿来到庞家，见了姨娘，又见过表妹，问道：“表弟那里去了？”
                                                                                                                                                                李氏道：“今日知府考试，他去入考，天幕方回。”
                                                                                                                                                                桂萼道：“妹子越长大了，与表弟模样相似，曾有人来求亲么？”
                                                                                                                                                                李氏道：“城内周举人来求了，只不曾下聘。”
