The first head of the Uwajima Date family was Hidemune, the eldest son of Date Masamune, a daimyo in the northeastern region of Honshu Island, and in 1614 Date Hidemune was given the title of 100,000 koku daimyo by the Tokugawa shogunate. The Uwajima Date family was an independent prince of the country, not a branch of the Sendai domain.

The current head of the family is Date Toe Mori Castle, who has just ascended the throne this year, and he is one of the four sages of the future shogunate, and is known for his political clarity. Because the main room of Date Munejo is the sister of Saimasa, the current head of the Saga Nabeshima family, Naohide took out the documents of the "guidance" of the Saga Domain's Ran Gakuryo and was quite courteous to the Uwajima Domain, and successfully met Mr. Keisaku Ninomiya.

Like Ito Genpo, Ninomiya Keisaku was a student of Dr. Siebald, a doctor at the Rankoku Shokan who was expelled from the country by the shogunate, and his students were also implicated when Seibold was expelled from the country in 1829, and Ninomiya Keisaku returned to his hometown of Uwajima in 1830 and is now trusted by the new feudal lord.

After the courtesy, Naohide presented a letter from Nagasaki Orchid Doctor Nakata Murataichi to Mr. Ninomiya, but strangely Mr. Ninomiya did not examine it on the spot - usually this kind of letter may be a letter of introduction, and the host will take a different attitude towards the visiting guest according to the letter from an acquaintance.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Naohide couldn't help it, so he began to talk about Silas, because Mr. Ninomiya was also a very famous Lan doctor, so Naohide introduced new medical techniques such as plaster grafting and limb amputation, and the atmosphere slowly became warmer.

The time soon came to dusk, Naohide offered to say goodbye, Mr. Ninomiya eagerly sent Naohide out of the door, and invited Naohide to continue visiting the next afternoon, Naohide agreed in confusion - if Naohide and others are really welcome, why do you have to invite dinner, right? As a door-to-door guest who can talk, it is rude not to be invited to dinner, is the second palace family poor? It doesn't look like it, maybe it's because I'm not prepared.

Sure enough, the next afternoon, Naohide and others visited the door again, Mr. Ninomiya's attitude was much more eager, and he also prepared raw gypsum and other materials, and Naohide asked the two students to do a live demonstration. After that, Zhixiu began to dig out the magic weapon again, in order to become famous, Zhixiu carried the agricultural books and medical books he wrote with him, and began to send books when he entered Hong Kong, and the effect was good - he may not pay attention to what you say to ordinary people, but you take out the book, and at first glance it is the speech printed on the book, and the credibility rises suddenly, which is what later generations called the lead word effect.

Speaking of dusk, this time the four of them finally got together for dinner, Mr. Ninomiya explained that yesterday was too hasty, and today must make up for it, Naohide as a junior of course expressed panic, in short, it is a big step forward in the relationship.

Mr. Ninomiya's management of the house was strictly forbidden, and only Mrs. Ninomiya came forward to say hello during the day, and at dinner I finally met Mr. Ninomiya's family, and the children expressed their gratitude for yesterday's gift. Among them, a girl who covered her head with a handkerchief attracted the attention of Naohide, and now women's headdresses are generally dominated by hairpins and combs, and peasant women only use handkerchiefs to cover their heads, but he is inconvenient to ask.

For dinner, Mr. Ninomiya entertained the four of Naohide, and his family ate in other rooms. It can be seen that the dinner is indeed a painstaking effort, although it is just a grilled fish, two side dishes, miso soup, rice but the taste is very good, especially the Languo-style fried meatballs eaten Naohide is full of praise.

During the banquet, Mr. Ninomiya apologized for his busy official duties and inconsiderate hospitality, and Naohide hurriedly said, "As a junior, you are really afraid to be so polite."

"Gong is the landlord, the next day or ask the dog and the little girl to entertain a little bit, and browse some local scenery."

"It doesn't have to be like this, the hospitality is very good, it's too troublesome for Mr. and his family."

But Mr. Ninomiya insisted, and the elder didn't dare to resign, and in the end Naohide agreed. The next morning, Mr. Ninomiya's eldest son and his daughter, who had wrapped her head in a handkerchief yesterday, visited the Travelogo and took the four of them around.

Warei Shrine is the premier shrine on the island of Shikoku and has the largest stone-built torii gate in Fuso; Longguang Temple and Fomu Temple belong to the 88 places of worship in the four countries, and they are also very ancient; The beach is even more beautiful.

The two "tour guides" also wanted to take them to the twelve-kilometer-long Slip Bed Valley and Mt. Ishigum, the highest mountain in Nishifuso, but Naohide refused, one was too far away, and he couldn't stay in Uwajima for too long.

See the scenery and think about the food - the food of Uwa Island in the later generations is very famous.

Naohide didn't force it, but just asked them to bring a message to Mr. Ninomiya, and Naohide was going to say goodbye the next morning.
