Ah... What is it?

My knees need a little rest.

Your knees?

After I rest for a little while, I should be able to walk again right away.

Hey, excuse me!

Excuse me! Is anyone around!?

Sorry, but am I heavy?

You are heavy!

You've gotten fat!

I haven't been getting seconds recently, so I should've lost some weight.

You'll have to pay me back double for this loan, you know!

If you talk too much, you'll get short of breath.

Shut up!

She's way too late.

It'll be over before the bride even gets here.

Shall I go call for her?

No.

If even the bride's parents aren't here, that would be really bad.

Send Shizuko and the girls.

Yes.

Whaa! She really is a fool.

Even if you have to drag Ito-chan out of there, you bring her back.

Yeah.

Hey, are you okay, Kansuke-chan?

Leave it to me.

Ah... I'm off!

Ah! Ito-chan! Nat-chan?!

Ahh!

This... pig!

Just what were you thinking?!

All of his parents and relatives have been waiting, you know!

Mother...

Onee-chan understands that already.

She doesn't understand!

This idiot doesn't understand a single thing!

I'm sorry. If you would please.

Let me go back there!

Just a moment!

Somehow, everyone's scary, huh?

Ito-chan!

Huh?

Ito-chan! Did you bring the wedding outfit?

Grandma brought it, didn't she?

Your grandmother said you told her that you would bring it.

Ah... that's right.

I'll get it. I'll go get it!

Ah, ow! It hurts! Ow!

Don't do that! Don't do that!

Ah, should I have Kansuke-chan go and get it?

Let's do that. Where did you put it?

Eh... um...

...if you enter the store, I think it's on the left hand side...

...in my Grandma's wrapping cloth.

Geez! FOOL!

Never mind that! Wait.

It's mine.

I never got to wear it though.

Well, but...

Please take care of me.

Please watch over us as well.

Can you walk?

One, two...!

Ah... Ow! It hurts!

Be careful.

"Clothes make the man."

Eh?

The pig's in her Sunday best!

Hey...

Now, now...

Everyone! Attention!

What is it?

Well, I was suddenly asked to perform any tricks I knew!

Hey, who was it that asked you to do that?!

The Young Proprietress here.

Yes, everyone, give me your attention!

Here goes!

You suck!

I... I'll do something. Outta the way!

Sate, sate sateha Nankin-tamasudare choi to nobaseba Hurry, hurry, it's time for the Nanking Screen

Nankin-tamasudare (Nanking Screen) - traditional Japanese street performance where a person skilled at manipulating special screens made of loosely woven sticks chants a rhythmic poem while using the screen to portray various objects in the song without stopping

Choi to nobaseba hai shidare ume ni samo ni tari Extend it a little, yes, and here comes a drooping plum branch

I've thought of one other thing.

Huh?

The monkey's make-up.

Let's go.

Yeah.

Zen-chan! It's the bride!

Ah!

You're right!

She's come, she's come! The bride has come at last!

The bride is so beautiful!

Look! Now that the bride has arrived...

...we all have to make another toast!

You fool! This is where I come in with my "Takasago."

Yes, yes. Well now.

Masaru-san...

Ito-chan, congratulations!

Kanpai!

Kanpai!

Takasago ya kono Urafune ni Takasago, in this Urafune

What are you doing?! I'm chanting Noh here! You fool!

I'm sorry for being so late.

Was it for a job?

Yeah.

Surprisingly, no one seems to have noticed I wasn't wearing the kimono I should have been.

Beautiful!

So beautiful!

Well, maybe they really didn't want to notice.

Then again, no one said a word about my being so late, either...

They were just absolutely reveling in that today was the day.

I'm... a lucky fellow.

Grandma!

I have to deliver those goods by ten, so about breakfast...

Ah, that's right.

He would be here starting today.

Masaru-san.

Yes?

Do you hate sardines?

No, I love 'em.

Really! Then here, eat up!

Thank you. Itadakimasu.

I'll get you some rice.

Will you have plenty of people to help you move in today?

Yeah.

I don't have a lot of stuff, so I'll just bring it over with my brothers and some friends.

I see.

Look, you make sure and help out, too.

Ah... I have to make the delivery today, so I'll do that first.

It'll be okay to deliver those goods tomorrow.

I couldn't do that.

Eh?

There's a fixed date set for them and I have to be certain I make it.

Oh, you're in no position to say such great things.

Who was it that was late to her own wedding?

Where do the goods have to go?

Eh?

I'll take them.

Eh?

Your feet hurt, don't they?

So long; I'm off.

Please take care of it.

Have a nice time!

Be careful.

Ahh...

It's nice having a young man around the house, isn't it?

I certainly thought so, too.

G'morning!

G'morning!

However...

I'm off, first.

It still felt very strange to me having a man hanging around the house...

...who wasn't either my Dad or Kansuke.

Ala?

Ah...

Why didn't she lay hers out here?

Itoko!

I told you to lay your mattress out in the next room, didn't I?

It's so we can each sleep out of consideration for each other.

What's this "consideration for each other?" You two are a married couple.

Yeah, yeah!

Itoko!

And so, Kawamoto-san...

No, Masaru-san was an admirable person.

And, no matter what was going on, he didn't mind and was always in a good mood.

Wherever he was or whatever he was doing, he was in a good mood.

What's happened?

It's this...

...toe-nail clipping...

Something happen while clipping your toe-nails?

Well, it's...

Still, well, with such a person around...

...I was thankful I wouldn't have to be worried about either myself or Grandma.

A single toe-nail is all it takes to make him laugh, huh?
