Episode 137
Oshin had disobeyed her mother-in-law,
and was determined to stay to have her baby.
And she was working harder in the fields.
She wanted to prove herself as a Tanokura wife.
Her pride kept her working, so Okiyo wouldn't have anything
to complain about her.
Let's finish up.
You go on. I'll get this done first.
You'd better stop before you get sick.
I'll be all right.
Don't be so stubborn.
If I'm staying on, I'd better at least work.
You don't get taken care of that well.
You don't get much to eat, either.
You should be given better food for your baby!
When you were pregnant with Yuu,
Gen used to buy you all sorts of good food.
I feel sorry for this new baby.
Look at all that money...
We sold our wheat crop.
Then I should get a share of the profits.
I produced a part of the crop.
I have never received any cash payments.
I have bought you everything you needed.
Maybe you could give five yen to Oshin?
She has been working hard.
Oh, come on! She was playing a long time with that injury.
She didn't work enough to earn her keep.
She has already worked to pay that part back.
My brother knows that!
All you ever do is talk about Oshin.
But I don't even regard her as your wife.
Don't mention her name in front of me again!
Oshin has to nourish the baby she is carrying.
I get fish to eat, but she only gets soup and pickles.
And she doesn't even get her fair share of rice!
You call yourself a man!
You sound like an old maid...
If I don't speak up for her, who will?
She needs to eat at least one egg every day.
Or she will end up exhausting herself.
I told her that I refuse to care for her if she insists on staying here.
And you both know that! You're wasting your breath.
Ryuzo... Here.
Go feed her something good to eat.
- It'll just go to Oshin's head! - Never mind!
Oshin needs a new kimono anyway. She works hard in the fields.
I'm not good with words...
Tell her for me, I think she's doing well.
It's from father and brother.
They say you have been working hard.
Order something you want to eat.
Don't worry about it!
- Is it really okay? - Yes.
I'm so happy.
I appreciate it.
I still have the money Mrs. Okayo gave me,
but I didn't want your mother would think it's strange that I have money.
I have been wanting to buy some things.
I'll use this to get some baby things.
You can get that later. Get some food.
It's such a waste! I get three meals a day.
- That's more than enough. - You need more!
My mother got even less to eat,
but she had strong babies like me!
She had a lot of milk, too.
Have a midwife take a look at you.
I will figure out a way to pay for it.
I don't need that. This is my second time.
Atsuko will be giving birth here anyway.
So have the same midwife look at you.
You don't have to worry about me. I'll have the baby just fine.
Oshin!
Good morning.
Thanks for making Ryuzo less than a man.
A grown man asking his family for money!
I'm sure it's because you complained to him.
A wife can't do that to her husband!
I thought you were ready to persevere?
Yet you still complain to Ryuzo about food?
You don't have to stay. Go where you can eat your fill!
You have no right to be my son's wife!
It was during the rainy season,
and the busiest time of the year for rice farmers
when Okiyo brought Atsuko home to have her baby.
- Welcome home. - Welcome home.
I'm finally home! If you hadn't come for me,
they'd have sent me out to plant rice.
That's why I went and got you today.
You must have had a tough time.
Her in-laws can't be good to her as we are!
It's best we take care of our own.
Besides, they can save money on her food bills.
They are happy to be rid of her.
She can't be planting rice at this stage of her pregnancy.
My mother-in-law had to work in the fields
right up to the time she gave birth.
People think wives are just slaves!
Go and change. Just relax.
I'm starving!
I knew you'd say that, so we're prepared, right?
Yes.
- Where's Yuu? - He's taking a nap now.
Then let's all eat some zenzai together!
I haven't had that in a long time. It's so good to be home!
Let's go change.
When I first came here I had to work
right up until the time I had my baby.
They wouldn't even let me go home until the very last minute.
She said I was a Tanokura,
and sent me out to work in the fields.
So different from Atsuko...
Shouldn't you take a break?
Being in the water too long isn't good for you.
You'll lose the baby.
- I have to finish first. - Oshin...
- Let's eat. - Let's eat.
We always get good food when Aunt Atsuko is here!
Atsuko is a very important guest!
Don't tell the others that you had zenzai.
Welcome back!
Aunt Atsuko is here.
Is she well?
- Yes, we had zenzai to eat. - No, we didn't!
We're not supposed to tell.
I can at least tell Uncle Ryuzo. Aunt Atsuko had three helpings!
- How many did you have? - Just a single serving.
You're back?
Atsuko should be out of the bath soon.
You go bathe first. You need to warm up.
What? The women bathe last!
She was knee deep in water all day.
Your father and brother haven't bathed yet.
But Atsuko has, so why not Oshin?
I don't mind. I still have to wash the diapers anyway.
Just do as I say,
and bathe before your father and brother get back.
That was a good bath!
Where's the zenzai?
Oshin needs something sweet. She is tired.
What zenzai? There's no celebration.
The one who loafs around all day,
eat zenzai and take the first bath...
And the one who works all day gets nothing?
It's just not fair!
Oshin should get equal treatment!
Never mind. I don't need it!
You're nothing but trouble...
Don't meddle in how I treat Atsuko!
I'm nothing but trouble?!
How long will this kind of life go on?
But Oshin had to have her baby here.
And she felt miserable...
