1039 Episode 1,338 - Fireworks and Banquet

Side: Miki Naoyori

Why do you think Shiba and Oda are so protective of their sister-in-law? I'm sure there are some things in Hida that are important to them.

I tried to rely on my friendship with the Mino people, but they didn't listen to me, and I tried to get the Oda people to join me, but they didn't respond well either.

Some Oda said to me, 'If you want to be recognized by the lord and the guardian, show your achievements outside of warfare that are obvious to everyone like Kuon-Dono, and others said, 'If you want to be recognized by the lord, show your loyalty by abandoning your possessions.

I've been struggling for a long time, and I've finally won Hida halfway through the war. Why does Oda not recognize me?

Why does Oda not recognize me, and why does he call upon a territory that should be protected for generations to come? Why do you call upon this territory to protect it for generations? I'm sure that after North Ise, your next target is Hida.

I would say it's a battle then, but it's no match for you. In addition, even my own territory has salt and rice coming in from Owari. If you disobey, you may be defeated without a single soldier being sent out.

Even the people know which one is stronger. Some of the men who went to work for Oda did not return to Oda's country, and some began to leave with their families.

It's not a good idea to go on," he said, but the Anishoji family would not listen to him. I'm sure they're very happy that I can't do anything about it.

...... If only I were younger. I'm over fifty and I'm already old. I'm over fifty and I'm too old to fight with Oda. I'm not in good shape these days.

It's not fun, but it is left to the late son to do the rest. The only thing I can do is to cultivate a friendly relationship with Oda on this fireworks display. What I can do to help the late son.

Side:Kuon Kazuma

When I returned from watching the float, the party was ready. I wonder if the kids are okay? The kids from the school and the orphanage should be watching the fireworks while camping by the sea again this year.

I'm sure it's okay, though, since I went with Spring and the others. I wish I could have been there. I don't want to watch fireworks with a public figure, but it's just too much work.

To be honest, this is a political and diplomatic place. In addition to the nobility, there are guests from neighboring countries. This year, Kiso Yoshiyasu Kiso, the head of the Kiso family in Shinano, is here.

No, he came voluntarily, even though I didn't invite him. He came to Owari on the pretext of visiting Atsuta and went to Kiyosu Castle to say hello.

It seems that he invited you to watch the fireworks with him. Well, he came to deepen our friendship, so there's no need to make fun of him.

I'm sure that Yoshiyasu-san is worried that he wasn't invited last year. But it's not a bad thing that Kiso is Shinano. It's a good thing that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you have a relationship with the company, but we've only invited the guardian, the national administrator, or an equivalent position.

Well, I understand how you feel.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I'm sure it's a good idea.

This year's party is a little different. There is a brick baking area in the garden, where fresh fish and shellfish are grilled and served as-is.

While the public was curious to see what was going to happen at the grill, they were surprised when he started grilling rock oysters.

'What a ......'

This year's principals are from Suruga and Echizen. Because of their sheltered status and their reasonable status, many of them have never seen a cooking scene.

To begin with, in this era, although there was a beach grill, there was no custom of barbecue, and it was a time when people ate cold food with a poisoned taste.

"Oh, that's a good smell!

In the garden of Atsuta Shrine, there are chairs, tables, and seats covered with dirt and tatami mats. There was a veranda, and each person could watch the fireworks at their favorite spot and enjoy the food and drinks.

This is actually our style of barbecue. We don't usually use tatami mats though.

This banquet was actually an idea of Gito-san. I have participated in a few of our barbecues, you know. So has Gito-san.

In the style of the Kuon family, we would watch the fireworks. I didn't think it was a good idea, but it seems to be more popular than I thought.

"Please be careful, it's hot.

The rock oysters are only drizzled with a little soy sauce, which is also delicious. The cook transfers the still hot roasted rock oysters directly to the plate and distributes them to the courtesans.

"Haha, good.

"It's a bold dish, but I didn't know it was so good. ......

"Hafu ...... hafu hafu. Oh, hot. Ah ......

The rock oysters are grilled right in front of you. Well, you've never experienced that. Moreover, soy sauce is still expensive and valuable. Some places sell a pool of miso as soy sauce these days, but the taste is so different that you can easily tell.

Clams and giant clams are also delicious.

"Is it true?

If you don't say anything, you're going to eat a whole lot of oysters, so I'll suggest something else. We don't serve meat, but we do grill fish, and we serve yakisoba and okonomiyaki. It's called Kudo cuisine, and it's very popular.

I'm glad to hear that everyone is enjoying it.

Side:Spring

I saw the most stars in the eastern sky. On the beach outside Atsuta, I'm camping with my children.

The kids are used to this annual event. Some of them miss the commander and Elle, though.

There are many guards and adults around, but there are also many more people watching the fireworks.

'Harusama! Talk to me!

Uh-huh, okay. What story would you like to tell?

I know. I'm sure. Sea Story!

Dinner is over and the kids are waiting for the fireworks. A short distance away, Julia was playing her lute for the kids.

The children run up to me and I tell them a story about the ocean, at their urging.

I wonder how Lily and Asha's upbringing affected them. They are very active and interested in everything. Having fought in two battles, one at Mikawa and the other at Ise, I've coaxed them to tell me stories about their battles on several occasions.

Many boys want to go to war and kill the enemy. Some of them tell us that they will protect us.

'It's almost time for the fireworks to go off.'

Just as the sea story was winding down, we heard the drumming that signaled the start of the fireworks and Lily told everyone it was time for the fireworks.

Everyone gathered around, including the kids who had been playing happily with Suzu and Cherry, and sat down to look up at the night sky.

As the light came up, it was as quiet as another world from the earlier hubbub.

'Wow!'

Pretty!

The fireworks spread out in a puff and bloom, and the sound of a slight delay. The children again shout with joy at the sight.

Oh, this moment is why I can go to the front and fight the enemy.

I want to protect them. I want to protect the future of as many children as possible.

At least within this reach.
