Episode 75
After she refused Ryuzo's proposal of marriage
Oshin thought it was all over between them.
She was more concerned about the request
for more money made by her father in Yamagata.
She tried to do more work in order to earn the money.
And she'd stay up nights sewing kimono for people.
She cut down on her eating and sent the money home.
Oshin had no time to think of Ryuzo.
You have a money order.
Thanks.
Who is it from?
Oshin of course! She's such a filial daughter.
I hear she does hair in Tokyo. She sure earns a lot of money!
Thanks.
She just sent some money the other day.
What did you tell Oshin?
Did you ask her for more money?
We have been paying off the debts
to the landlord with money Oshin sends.
What else do you need money for?
The economy is bad... Yet she sends 20 yen a month!
I feel sorry for her...
She must be trying so hard to earn the money!
You're making the sake taste bad...
I'm not wasting the money.
We need money to renovate the house.
You want to renovate the house?
The debts are close to being paid off
and Shoji is taking a wife. We need a bigger house.
You're renovating for Shoji's bride?
Oshin is working herself to death for that?
Stay out of it! She understands.
If the girl doesn't like this house
she doesn't have to marry Shoji at all!
I came here as a bride and I've stayed.
She can't expect luxury either!
You mean to ruin Shoji's chances for marriage?
The bride's parents want us to renovate.
Nobody wants to live in a shack like this.
Then let Shoji do it himself.
You can't beg for money from Oshin!
I'm not loafing.
We're all working towards lowering our land rents.
But the farmers here are scared of the landlords!
There's not much use staying on here...
But I've stayed for you two!
Leave if you want to go...
Fuji!
You're not staying on for us.
You're just afraid of going off to the city to work!
Shoji... Don't be angry.
I understand.
Don't you love your own son?
And you have no feelings for Oshin?
I'm not trying to squeeze blood out of a turnip.
Oshin is working and doing well. She should be helping her brother!
Shoji is the only one to have stayed on with us.
I've talked to the carpenter.
300 yen should get us a good house.
Let's have more drinks.
I'm having Oriki write this letter because I wanted to tell you
about your father's plan to renovate our house.
I don't know how much you earn
but there's no need to send us all your money.
Save some money up for yourself.
You're already 20. You should be married already.
Please find a good man to marry.
We can't put on a wedding for you.
So save some money for your own wedding.
Fuji's letter made Oshin feel better.
She thought her father's request to send more money selfish
but her mother's words made it all bearable.
She wanted to ensure that her mother
and her brother's new bride could get along.
Oshin felt it was the daughter's job to help them out.
I've been watching for you here.
You come here the same time everyday.
I'd go home after having a glimpse of you.
I didn't mean to stop and talk like this.
It's been nice just seeing you...
I'm in a hurry.
Oshin...
Are you ill?
I've been worried... Maybe you're working too hard?
I've been busy.
You don't look well.
- Ryuzo! - You hardly ever come by!
What are you doing here?
You and Oshin?
What a shock!
No wonder he never comes to see us.
You can't fool us! I can see it on your face.
Oshin should have told us!
It's not her fault. Leave he alone.
You're trying to stick up for her?
You can't get away from us tonight!
And you'll tell us all about Oshin and you!
- There's nothing between us. - Oh sure.
I'm in love with her and I've proposed.
- Are you serious? - Of course!
But she turned me down.
That's all it is.
- Goodbye. - Mr. Tanokura!
I'll come by to see you sometime but I don't feel like it tonight.
I'm worried about Oshin. She doesn't seem well.
Please watch out for her. She won't listen to me.
You turned down Ryuzo's proposal? Why?
So many women are in love with him.
Don't make it sound as if he's a playboy.
We had Oshin write him love letters
but that was just for business.
Ryuzo is rich... That's why we wanted him.
That's not his only good point.
He's good-looking but he's still only a customer!
We tried to seduce him but he wouldn't go for it.
He knows what we're up to...
He saw right through us.
He is nice... He's not into using us.
I don't care...
I just wanted to be with him.
Don't talk like that in front of Oshin!
Why not? It fell through anyway.
You all felt like that?
You're so lucky to have him love you.
He's a great businessman for a young man
and you won't have to live with his mother.
It's perfect for you!
Thanks for worrying about me... but I prefer to marry a man I love.
Maybe I will never meet someone like that.
Then I'm prepared to live alone.
Thanks.
Sorry I didn't do a good job today.
I think you're tired. Take care of yourself.
Oshin?
Oshin?!
Oshin!
What's wrong Oshin?!
I had Oshin investigated...
She's the daughter of a sharecropper in Yamagata.
She didn't even complete grade school.
She can read and write better than a graduate from a girls' school.
Her calculation skills are good too.
She was arrested twice by the police.
Is that true?
- You didn't even know... - I knew about it.
She was wrongly taken in both times.
They say she's a Red!
She is not.
Even if she's not people all think she is.
A woman should never be thought of like that.
What's wrong with being a Red?
Ryuzo has lost his head... It's hopeless.
You refuse to listen to me?
Fine then.
You'd better be prepared to be disowned!
We will no longer be mother and son
and you'll have to leave this business.
That's how it is.
We gave you the money to run this shop.
If you're not a Tanokura you'll have to leave.
Think it over!
Please tell her you will give Oshin up.
Then she'll go back home to Saga.
Tell her a white lie!
Time will take care of everything.
Come on let's go.
My lady...
Your son agrees to forget about that girl.
Please feel reassured and return home to Saga.
Mr. Tanokura!
It's Oshin... It's an emergency!
Mr. Tanokura!
It's an emergency!
Ryuzo!
Mr. Tanokura!
