Episode 10: A man who buys eyebrows
Last updated March 15, 2024
Until the beginning of the Showa era, Seya was very popular with silkworms. At that time, there were no vehicles, and people walked to any distant places. The eyebrow buyers also came to Seya from Hachioji and Machida.
Seya's Tora was one of the buyers of eyebrows. Otara-san buys "Kuzumayu", which is called "Guchamayu". The hard worker and cheerful tora was barefoot even in cold weather, ran around to buy sss and eyebrows, weaving such as jiori with kuzuma. He went to buy eyebrows and loved talking with the villagers while calling tea.
Even such a toler, my feet and hips suddenly hurt, and I couldn't buy eyebrows as expected.
"I wonder if this pain doesn't heal."
"I wish I could get this pain."
I was talking to the people. Then, one knows
"If you go to a prayer teacher who lives in the eight fence (Hasaku) and see it."
He told me.
Tora-san decided to go to the eight-folden and see it. Even if you say eight fences in a bite, you have to walk across mountains and passs. The toler left the house in the dark, and finally reached the eight fence. But the shutters are still shuttered and no one is awake. When I entered the garden, something like the eyeballs glowed in the darkness, staring at it, and it looks like I'm going to jump on.
He was astonished. This was very difficult, and if I couldn't get caught up by a fox, I took out the souvenirs I brought and came home at first glance.
When he arrived at home, he suddenly noticed.
"It's mysterious, I've never been able to sleep well at night because my legs and legs were so painful." Yeah, my legs and hips were completely sore.
Tora-san went out to buy eyebrows again, where he went.
"The prayer master of the eight fence was great, he did not see anywhere and healed his legs and hips. It's a mystery."
I was talking about it.
