Episode 126
Oshin's resolve to leave the Tanokura
household with her son Yuu was firm.
She had invited Sawa along too because she'd wanted
to take her away from her plight of being a scorned wife.
After all she had attempted suicide
and Oshin felt very sorry for the poor woman's predicament.
She had planned to leave on the middle day of the Equinox.
And she shared her plans with Sawa.
Now that day was finally here.
Why are you wearing a nice kimono?
It's the Equinox and we'll be visiting graves.
We're not working today either.
So I wanted to at least look nice.
Who are you out to impress?
My brother Kamejiro is here so say "hello."
He's my second oldest brother.
He's with the army in Kokura. He is on leave now.
- Isn't he a captain? - Yes.
Military men have it good these days.
This is Kamejiro.
My name's Shin. I'm pleased to meet you.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
She's a fine woman. Seems very Tokyo-like.
You should've brought your wife and child.
I don't want to bring her here to her in-laws!
She wouldn't get a chance to rest here.
She should be here to visit our ancestral graves!
She only goes to see her own parents.
So what? You already have two brides here.
I have a gift for you!
It's to take the place of a wedding present.
You don't have to be so nice to her.
Thanks.
Let's open it up.
Have some bota-mochi. It's your favorite.
Looks good!
Please you two join us too.
Oshin why don't you go shore up the crops.
It's a holiday today!
Farmers get no days off.
Don't go yet.
You two aren't going back to Tokyo?
I visited there recently. It's being rebuilt!
It's been six months since the earthquake.
You had a business there.
Don't waste away back here in the country!
Tokyo is the city of the future.
I don't miss Tokyo...
You don't?
I don't want to do business anymore!
He can't go back there. He still has debts.
I'm betting on making it on land reclaimed from the Ariake Sea!
Ryuzo.
I want to live out my dream.
I have to go check with the cooperative members.
You must be having a tough time of it Oshin.
The boy has got a good strong face.
His name is Yuu. It means strong!
He's got a future to look forward to.
I finished cleaning the headstones.
- You're back? - I got some time off.
Go wash your hands!
- Okay. - Okay.
Why are you just sitting there?
A woman can't rest even on a holiday.
Tsuneko is working isn't she?
And why are you wearing a nice kimono like that?
Women on farms sure have it tough!
My Hiroko would never make it here.
Everybody has to persevere.
Oshin has it relatively easy. It could be worse.
She should be grateful.
I'm home!
You're home!
We figured you'd be coming by.
I didn't expect to see you here Kamejiro.
You're looking good.
Don't complain about my Hiroko.
Atsuko is always here visiting you.
She needs to come home once in a while
to get away from her in-laws. She has no rest.
Your two sons' wives have to put up with you!
Let them go home sometimes too.
I'll bet you order them about constantly.
- I feel sorry for them. - That's right...
What are you saying?
I don't make my sons' wives work hard.
Atsuko has been married a year. Yet she has no babies.
That means she isn't at home there.
- Mother... - Yes?
About that...
I was told it's pretty certain...
You're with child?
I'm in my third month!
- Really? - Yes.
I'm so glad! She's with child!
Oshin had no intention of ever returning to this house.
She had all her belongings tied to her back.
Now that Atsuko is pregnant we have nothing to worry about!
Take good care of yourself and have a good healthy baby.
Do be careful. You're not very strong.
Oshin...
Hurry up and go out to work!
I'll watch the boy for you.
No... I'm used to having him with me.
A woman has to care for her own baby!
All farmers' wives work with their babies.
Here's your lunch...
So you don't have to come back here for lunch.
Thank you.
Let's celebrate today.
All my kids are here!
I have suko-sushi for you too.
I love it the way you make it!
Eat all you want.
Oshin didn't care about bota-mochi or suko-sushi.
Her life here was coming to an end today.
She was excited about leaving.
But she did feel envious towards the baby Atsuko was carrying
compared to her own unborn baby.
Because it was going to be born with everyone's blessing.
Her second baby wouldn't be welcomed here.
But at least she'll be giving birth
some place other than the Tanokura home.
Oshin decided to wait for the train in the woods.
She worried about Sawa. Will she be coming?
I'm sorry to have called you out here.
I didn't want people to see us talking.
Your wife is leaving on the afternoon train.
She told me she is leaving the Tanokura house!
Oshin's planning to do that?
How do you know about it?
- I was supposed to go with her... - You and she planned it?!
Please don't be angry with her. She's had such a hard time here.
She has decided to leave to make her own life.
It's too hard for a woman to make it on her own.
Once she leaves it'll be too late.
I want you two to stay together!
Stop her before it's too late.
The afternoon train?
I won't let you go to Tokyo!
If you insist on going leave Yuu here!
Sawa told you?
I knew what you were up to.
Then you must know why I'm going to Tokyo!
You're being selfish!
I don't care what you say I'm no longer a Tanokura!
Let me go. I'll miss my train!
Forget it!
What will you do in Tokyo all by yourself?
Then come with me...
Let's just leave now... Together!
Don't be silly!
Then I'll have to go alone!
Fine then...
Leave Yuu with me.
You can't take him.
He's my son!
Oshin!
I can't take it anymore!
He's my only companion!
All you ever do is listen to your mother!
You're weak!
You are afraid of going back to Tokyo
so you cower behind your parents!
I don't want a man who won't protect his wife!
I can get a job in Tokyo.
Yuu will have no father from this day on!
Oshin?
Oshin!
Are you all right?! Oshin!
Oshin was thinking about the train as she lost consciousness.
She was running to the train.
But the station was so far away.
Why couldn't she reach it?
