in Kyoto.
Mr Hirayama is going to Hiroshima
to visit Setsuko.
He'll explain everything.
Quick. Mrs Hirayama is on the line.
Here.
Hi, it's me.
That's right. I'm thinking of going.
I think that's what I'll do.
You're really going to Hiroshima?
I'm so happy. Setsuko will be so surprised.
I haven't made up my mind yet.
It's not necessary for me to go.
It's a long way.
Why are you laughing?
You know what your trouble is?
I know how I am. Anyway, you should go.
Don't worry.
I'm very happy.
Setsuko will be so glad. I'm glad, too.
This isn't about making you happy.
You see...
I know. I'm very happy.
Send her my love. Enjoy your trip. Goodbye.
Excuse me.
- I would like to send a telegram.
- Certainly.
Arriving at Hiroshima 2:18 p.m. Father.
- You got it?
- Yes, sir.
- I'll have it sent from Osaka.
- Please do.
EQUINOX FLOWER - THE ENDWhat is the good of today?
What?
It must be a good day, since so many new couples.
But no bride is good-looking.
Didn't you see that one?
The one a little fat?
Yeah, she looks good.
Today, she's the best of all.
Yeah!
The weather maybe will turn bad according to the broadcast.
Well, you can't expect everything to be perfect.
You're right.
- Coming again now.
- What?
That seems quite bad.
Too thin.
I didn't see Mr.Mikami.
Yes.
I don't know what's wrong with him.
Hey, why didn't
Mikami come?
We've sent the invitation to him, but he's absent.
What's the matter?
Now we are honored to invite the best friend of the bride's father,
Mr.Hirayama of Taiho company to make the address for us.
Is it me?
Please sit down, just do like that.
Congratulations.
I heard so many gratulations just now.
But no word comes to me now.
Please listen to me. During the process of their love,
As for the words I heard from the bride now and then,
Even sometimes complaints,
Until I heard the biggest news.
It's some how in a hurry.
I myself idled my whole bloom away.
Compared with you, I just can't forgive myself.
Looking back on our marriage,
It's really dull,and disappointing.
My wife is also here.
We didn't have the luck to get in touch with love,
such a beautiful thing.
We put in all our hearts, following the arrangement of our parents.
Regarding this, you are so fortunate.
And there are so many things that can't be changed by us.
Please make sure to try your best
to help them further.
Wish they love each other more and more so
that to be reported as news earlier.
And wish their love last forever so that to be a model of everyone.
As your eldership, we are looking forward to your pleasant life.
Thank you and congratulations to you!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Then when was it?
17 or 18 years ago,
when Sanko was alive.
And Mikami was also there.
Yeah, and he became a captain later.
When we are in the club he once invited me for a dinner.
So unbelievable it was, he drunk so much.
That's his bloom.
Sure it is. It even lasted for one or two years.
Is Mikami's daughter about to reach the age of marriage?
Yeah, she's only one year
yonger than my daughter.
Today's daughter?
No, the last one.
And what about yours?
You have several daughters.
- And you have more boys.
- Just two.
But let me see how to explain it.
Generally speaking, it is possible to get a daughter if the
husband is stronger than the wife.
Otherwise it is the contrary. Really?
It was said that it is more likely
to get a girl, then a boy.
That can be explained as
the husband is stronger at the first.
But
is it strange?
What's strange?
What about the case of two boys?
I myself want to ask my wife about this.
I just looks strong.
What a falderal!
Welcome!
Welcome, all of you have come.
It is so long since we last met, sir.
Nice to meet you.
Mr.Kawai, congratulations!
The weather is also wonderful.
It is said that there will be storm this afternoon,
However we are so lucky.
Then you will become lonely,
After your daughter gets married.
I have got used to that
