文化有根 創意是伴 Bridging Creativity
大約兩百多年前,在京都住著一位名叫飾屋九兵衛的商賈,他的店鋪開在寺町街上,位於島原路略為靠南的方向。九兵衛有一名侍女,喚作阿玉,老家在若狹國【註】。
九兵衛夫婦非常疼愛阿玉,對她視若己出。然而阿玉卻不像其他女孩那樣喜歡打扮,從不穿任何漂亮服飾。雖然夫人為她置辦了多件美麗的衣裳,但即使是休假的時候,她也穿著樸素的工作服外出。
就這樣,阿玉在九兵衛家中工作了五年。有一次,九兵衛問她,為什麼一直不註重自身的衣著打扮呢?
阿玉聽到這含蓄的責備,羞得面紅耳赤,恭恭敬敬地回答道:
「雙親過世之時,我年紀尚幼,又是獨生女,沒有兄弟姐妹。因此,雙親的後事全由我一人承擔。但孤苦伶仃的我,那裡有錢處理後事呢?於是我暗下決心,一定要籌到足夠的錢,將雙親的靈位安放到常樂寺裡,在那兒舉行超度亡靈的儀式。所以我儘量省吃儉用,無論是花錢還是穿衣,都考慮再三。大概是我太過節儉,令老爺感到我疏於儀態了。但現在,我已經存夠了一百兩銀子,無須再過分節儉。日後,我會穿著體面地出現在老爺面前。懇請老爺原諒阿玉此前的粗疏和無禮。」
阿玉的直言坦白,令九兵衛大為感動。他大聲稱讚阿玉是個孝順的好女孩,並親切地保證,此後阿玉可以隨心所欲地挑選穿著自己喜歡的衣裳。
這次談話過後,阿玉花了七十兩銀子,將父母的靈位移往常樂寺,並舉行了超度儀式。剩餘的三十兩積蓄,便託付給夫人代為保管。
誰知花盛突遭霜毀,次年冬天,阿玉忽然得了重病,多方延醫診治仍告無效,終於在元祿十五年(一七○二)元月十一日病逝。九兵衛夫婦對於阿玉的死,傷感哀痛不已。
阿玉離世大概十天後,一隻非常大的蠅,飛進九兵衛家裡,在九兵衛頭上盤旋轉圈。驟然見到巨蠅,九兵衛大為訝異。因為在這寒冷的天氣裡,不論何種蠅類,都絕不會出現。即使是在溫暖的季節裡,也極少會看到如此巨蠅。
