No matter how arid the year, Echigo Winter will face such a blizzard, which will have both advantages and disadvantages.

After only a few days of snowstorms, the snowfall in Naoetsu Port was more than a foot thick, and the treetops were covered with thick snow so that the branches were bent, and the rivers were frozen and the roads were blocked, so that the land transportation in Echigo was temporarily suspended.

Standing on the spring mountain castle is the best place to enjoy the snow scene, standing here you can overlook the spectacular scene of thousands of lights under the mountain, especially in this season the whole world seems to be connected into a silver-white world, such as Hosokawa Fujitaka, Matsui Yuxian loves you, Nanaoka Tsuba, Honda Tokimasa and other cultural people, the favorite in this season to sit in the pavilion in the city to prepare a few kinds of wine and food, and then put a few hand-warming stoves to warm wine and chant poetry to enjoy the snow scene, just like the literati and ink writers of the Wei, Jin, Tang and Song dynasties, the high-end atmosphere is small and fresh.

For Kira Yoshitoki, this winter seems to be extraordinarily long, almost every day on the York and this fascinated goblin lingering, only a little more than a month like a couple, Claudia's courage is not ordinary, dare to hug Kira Yoshishi's neck in front of John Hawkins and kiss him non-stop, it is really you and me who envy others.

Claudia's figure is about the best kind of woman Kira has ever seen, tall and tall must be more than 1.75 meters, and her willow waist is unbearable to hold two long legs amazingly long. The small butt is not big but very straight. What people care about the most is the amazing plumpness of the pair of headlights on the chest. It's much more fruitful than the tiger queen who has just given birth.

Tiger Ji and her sister Princess Aya are considered to be the busier women in the Echigo women, the most rare thing is that the two sisters not only have plump breasts, but also their waists and limbs are still slender, especially Tiger Ji has been rich in nutrition in recent years, and the two soft flesh on the chest are all made up, and the child has just been swollen by nearly a size than before, but it is still slightly worse than Claudia.

It's really cool to accompany Claudia all day, but after a long time, the body can't hold on, and it happens to be the end of the year. Kira Yoshishi took the opportunity to get out of the big evaluation meeting, if he was really dragged by this crazy little foreign girl, it is estimated that his body will be hollowed out in a few months.

When I returned to the Kasuga Imperial Palace, I happened to bump into a group of women walking back from the Listening Rain Courtyard, and a large group of nursing mothers and maids behind them were holding their own princesses, and Tiger Ji seemed to be surprised when she saw him and said, "Isn't this our long-missing husband?" I found a Nanban woman outside and lost my soul, leaving us women and children at home, so that the child woke up in the middle of the night and clamored to see his father, but he couldn't find anyone! ”

Ji Liang Yoshishi, who was embarrassed by the words, didn't know what to do, and several women covered their mouths and chuckled and didn't speak for their husbands. But he went to Zhijiangjin Port to find a Nanban woman, and his deeds of taking a Nanban woman to the mountains and rivers in that month have already spread all over the streets and alleys of Echigo. The lords of Shangzhi and the people of Li are all singing this legendary story.

In the eyes of the retainers and the people, this is a celebrity anecdote that is very popular, but in the eyes of the women in this courtyard, it is not necessarily a good thing, this Nanban woman has an unknown origin and does not know the roots, how to hook up with Kira Yoshi, what should be done in case this Nanban woman has bad intentions, the women are worried that their men will hook away their souls, and destroy this hard to build a warm and harmonious family atmosphere.

Of course, Tiger Ji can not restrain his own man, these years have seen one after another little girl marry into the door, to say that the heart is always happy is definitely self-deception, no matter how generous a woman is, there is a limit, even if Ji Liang Yishi's original intention does not change, he still treats Hu Ji sincerely, but Ji Liang Yi will inevitably snub this lady in the main room.

So this listening to the rain courtyard came into being, this is the idea that Tiger Ji and Princess Aya had accidentally thought of in the chat, the original intention was to pass the leisure time without a husband by her side, and under the operation of Princess Aya, another layer of meaning was quickly given, and the retainers and wives who stayed in the Kasuga Mountain Castle were added to this circle, which was equivalent to completely washing away the more popular "hostage" attribute of sending wives and daughters in the Warring States Period, and to some extent became a good means to blur the boundaries between monarchs and ministers and ease relations.

The fact that several of the old wives of the family joined in also showed that the family's important ministers recognized the circle, and that Torhime was excited that she could do something meaningful for her husband, and that running another network in Tingyu Yuan would also kill her resentment towards marrying more women when Kira Yoshitoshi was married.

But this Nanban woman is different from the woman from a good family who is marrying in the Ming media, and her unknown origin is a mystery and she suddenly fascinated Kira Yoshitoki, so that this man who loves his family does not go home for a few months, all of the above aggravates her worries about Kira Yoshishi, and it is inevitable that she will be a little resentful when she sees her husband who has not seen her for a few months.

Kira Yoshitoki smiled awkwardly: "Ahem! When Yu went out to fight for the feathers before, didn't he go home for half a year? Well, don't talk so much, it's still snowing! Let's talk about it in the room. ”

Tiger Ji only said this sentence and closed her mouth, a complaint is enough to show her attitude, no more will be interpreted as a trick and resentment, the husband comes back without any need to dwell on the past, gently leave the stomach full of complaints and dissatisfaction back to the room for dinner, during dinner, Kira Yoshishi comforted several ladies more, and praised several children in turn, so that the women's faces showed smiles.

Yoshino sat on the stool embarrassed with a big belly, eight months pregnant was already inconvenient to sit on the floor, Kira Yoshitoki was planning to advocate the use of chairs and wooden windows at home to work and rest habits, it happened that several ladies in the family either had just given birth, or were waiting to give birth with a straight stomach, so he renovated the restaurant in the name of taking care of his wife, replaced the ordinary tatami mats with thickened wooden floors, and replaced them with eight immortal tables and Taishi chairs to facilitate sitting down and dining.

Although the tradition of separate meals has been maintained, it has gradually changed from the traditional Japanese separate meal system of pickled radish with white rice to the European custom of separate meals, where the food is not fixed and unchanged like a bento, but the food is cooked and placed on the table, and the food you need to eat can be picked up with another set of utensils.

After a warm meal, the husband and wife returned to the harmonious atmosphere of talking and laughing in the past, and in the evening, Kira Yoshishi stayed in the room of the tiger hime, hugged the familiar woman in his arms and whispered: "I'm sorry I haven't been home much for two months, I didn't mean to do this to you and the children, this behavior does have other internal feelings, in my heart you and the children will always be the first, I promise never to do it again and hope you can understand." ”

Hu Ji sighed faintly: "Is that Nanban woman beautiful?" ”

“…… Pretty. ”

"Is she good to you?"

"It's fine!" Kira Yoshitoki coughed and said: "This woman will leave soon, her hometown is thousands of miles away, she came here to discuss business cooperation with my Ashikaga family, she will not enter the house and will not have a direct relationship with you, in short, her presence will not affect our lives." ”

"What does Your Highness mean, this Nanban woman has become His Highness's woman, do she still want to leave Her Highness and go back to her hometown? Tiger Ji didn't quite understand. Tiger Ji stared at the big round eyes, unable to imagine that a woman could dedicate her body to a man and resolutely leave this man, which was not in line with the traditional ethical relationship in the East, let alone the rules of the samurai.

The ethical value orientation of the East and the West is completely different, and there is no possibility of compatibility in a system at all, and the Japanese samurai society adheres to the traditional ethical culture similar to "marrying a chicken and marrying a dog and a dog", of course, the earlier Heian period Gongqing culture is really strange, and the degree of messing with the relationship between men and women is not as good as that of the European feudal era.

However, the era of the decaying ministers is long gone, replaced by the shogunate era, which was fought in the blood and fire of swords, and one of the major characteristics of samurai society is that it has a strict system and a strict class system, and it is this era that completely puts women under the rule of men, which is a purely patriarchal era similar to that of China's autocratic dynasty.

In the eyes of Tiger Ji, a woman is born dominated by a man, and before getting married, she obeys the arrangement of her father and brother to marry a man she doesn't know at all for various political factors, or all kinds of absurd and bizarre reasons, and then she gives birth to a son for this man to inherit the lineage, this is the standard arranged marriage, under the shroud of this arranged marriage, the so-called love is forever extravagant, such as monkey and Ningning, Li Jia and Song.

You can't blame Tiger Ji for having a problem with her understanding, she was also a deviant little girl when she was young, dancing with knives, guns, riding horses, shooting arrows, killing people and rushing into battle, doing what Ba Gozen and Itabae Gozen did, but the current era is not Genpei and Kamakura era, where women's power was relatively strong, but the Muromachi era when male power was fully formed and gradually strengthened.

What she did was criticized by some voices, until in recent years, she was taught by the director of Ayagong and gave birth to three children in a row, and her mind gradually settled down before returning to "orthodoxy", which is a classic example of an ancient version of a bad girl who reformed her evil and returned to righteousness, and it is inevitable to feel puzzled by this more bizarre Nanban woman if you have your own example.

Kira Yoshishi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This may be a bit troublesome to explain, because the customs are different!" Her hometown is a different cultural system, her persistence seems completely incomprehensible to us, our life is an absurd bizarre story for her, and the character of that woman is ...... It really can't be measured by the rules of our martial arts! (To be continued......)
