Episode 108
Thank you.
I was big with child then but we went sightseeing.
That was the only time I got to see
the sights here with my mother.
That was the happiest time of my life.
All the hardships seemed to disappear.
And I thought my joy would last a lifetime.
Little did I know what the world had in store for me.
1922 was past and now it was a new year.
The Tanokura Company was doing very well.
And Oshin was looking forward to a new year with her baby-to-come.
Don't forget to take these gifts you bought
when we went to see that play.
I'll treasure that moment.
I'll tell your father about it when I see him in heaven.
That was my first time at a play too.
After the baby comes I'll be too busy to go.
I'm so glad you came!
I'm glad too.
You and Ryuzo have been so good to me.
I was worried you might go into labor last night.
I'm all right.
This baby is a good one!
Excuse me but I need the medicine box.
- Is someone sick? - Toshiko has a fever.
- A fever? - Yes.
Is it a cold?
Don't go out there you might catch it!
Is she all right?
Let me see.
You'd better go home and get some rest.
If I leave now we won't finish in time.
I'll take over for you. I don't want you to get worse.
I can't let you.
I'm still fit to work.
I even went to see a play last night.
- You go on home and rest. - I'm sorry.
Please go stop her.
She won't listen to me!
She shouldn't be using the sewing machine in her condition.
Never mind. She will stop if it gets too difficult.
But...
Pregnancy isn't an illness you know!
Shouldn't you call the midwife yet?
- Taste this for me. - Okay.
It was tough for a while but I'm fine now.
I will work until this evening.
Not yet.
The pains have to come more frequently.
She'll be all right until evening.
But the pain must be pretty bad by now.
She sure is a stubborn girl. She's a lot like me.
The pains came in shorter intervals now
but Oshin kept on sewing.
Oshin had always filled in for her sick workers.
After all she had to help meet the deadlines.
Oshin valued trust and trust meant business.
Oshin was good at bearing pain.
Stop that!
Okay... I only have a little bit left to do.
Are you having pains?
I'm okay.
I'm sorry.
I need the midwife.
You'd better go get the midwife!
Hurry!
Please keep working.
Put out the bedding!
It's all ready. Genemon is boiling the hot water.
Hold on to me.
I didn't know it would be this painful.
Pull yourself together!
I don't want to have any more babies!
Hang on.
You'll feel better in no time.
No men allowed!
The hot water!
Hurry!
The baby is here! Get the hot water!
Gen! We need the hot water.
The baby is here. It's a boy.
Hurry and bring the hot water.
- How much longer? - Just be patient!
It sounds healthy!
You cried like that when you were born.
- I did? - Just like you!
You may come in now.
You did well!
It's a boy.
I don't care.
As long as the baby and mother are okay!
He's a fine boy.
He's moving his hands!
The birth went without a hitch.
Congratulations!
Good thing your mother was here.
Thank you.
We sure were lucky to have you here.
I felt at ease with my mother here.
Mother never needed a midwife for herself.
I knew she would help me.
I'm all right now.
Next time I won't need anyone's help.
Don't be silly! No more close calls for me!
He is right. I can't always be here.
Listen to Ryuzo.
Childbirth isn't something to take lightly.
I will be all right. I'm your daughter.
If it's this easy I want to have more babies.
Listen to you...
You were saying you never wanted another baby!
Oshin...
I want more kids too.
And I will work hard to support them all.
I will earn us a lot more money.
Congratulations!
Thank you.
- I heard it was a boy. - Yes I now have a heir.
This is a present from our company president.
Thank you very much.
Shouldn't you be lying down?
I was just giving him milk.
Can you recognize me yet?
This is a present from the sewing machine company.
You sure have a lot of presents.
What a lucky baby!
He is lucky... Our business is doing so well.
Things got better when I became pregnant.
He has brought us all luck.
Oshin was happy.
Ryuzo was a fine husband and a good father.
Tanokura Company was doing fine too.
Oshin never dreamed that things could ever go wrong again.
Oshin was 23
and the world was fast changing her for the worse.
Decadent songs became popular
reflecting ominous presentiment in the failing economy.
