Today, I decided to visit the Corinna home and officially order a blue garment for daily use and ceremonies. Since it takes time for the ceremonial use, I requested it through Benno first, but it seems that there are many things to decide, such as embroidery patterns, how to weave the band, and the fee.

Today ’s attendant has been designated by Corinna as a good family woman. Corinna was pregnant and asked for help with the measurements. Benno took measurements from the top of the clothes before, but after that it seems to be a long relationship, so he seems to want to measure properly.

Therefore, Lutz is on vacation with Turi. My mother seemed a little unwell and wanted to go, but my father took a stop.

“Are you using a very good cloth for rituals? I’ve never seen such a soft, smooth, beautiful cloth”

Turi, who had me in underwear and finished measuring, shined his eyes and touched the cloth. There seems to be no request to handle good fabrics in the Tuli workshop. Watching Corinna’s work will be a good experience for Turi.

My cloth for ceremonial use is a cloth given to Benno. This seems to have been dyed blue in the dyeing workshop where my mother works and returned to the store. Deep blue like lapis lazuli, similar to my hair color.

“Mine-chan, it’s okay to wear clothes. Turi, thank you for your help. This ceremonial outfit embroiders the scripture prayer words in decorative fonts. Shining silver will make you very beautiful. ”

And the crest is sewn in the middle of the neck embroidery. Aristocrats embroider each family crest, but I don’t have a family crest, so this is the emblem of the workshop.

“This is Mine’s coat of arms?”

“Yes, this is the main emblem of Mine Kobo. This is a book. This is an ink, this is a pen. Then, a paper tree and hair ornaments are combined. I made a lot of additions. “

“Because it’s Mine anyway, did you make something strange and fix it?”

“… I was just told that it was too simple”

«Korinna hears our conversation and laughs a little while spreading a blue cloth on a large work table. The table was full like a wave of sea with a slick glossy blue cloth.

“In the case of ceremonial costumes, you should select yarns and specify how to weave them so that the patterns appear on the cloth. “I’m thinking of putting embroidery on the whole with the same color thread so that the shape emerges when exposed to light, but what kind of pattern is Mine-chan?”

It was said that the fabric itself would be patterned by weaving, and the thing that came to my mind most was the kimono pattern. Reiko ( Rinzu ) and Reiko ( Dons ) Are you going to add embroidery like this?

Although I’m small and the embroidery area is small compared to adults, the fabric is large because there is plenty of room and the cuffs are long like a fluffy sleeve. Although it takes less time than weaving the fabric from scratch, it is hard to put embroidery throughout.

“That’s Corinna-san, no matter what you say, I’ve never seen the ceremonial outfit itself, so I don’t know. … ”

I should have seen it at my baptismal ceremony, but all of my memories are brought to Gokuko and the library. I don’t remember the costume that the blue priest wore. I remember the scriptures that the temple chief had, but the costumes that seemed gorgeous are refreshing.

“Mine! Don’t be easy for aristocratic rituals!”

“Neighbor! But it’s hard to embroider the whole thing, and I think it’s better if it’s a little easier.”

Corinna put his hand on his cheek, saying “Yes,” when he was giving up the Turi that hesitated.

“It would be nice to be able to easily and gorgeously embroider the embroidery, just as Tully’s dress was easily corrected, but I wonder if Mine-chan has any idea?”

Quested by Corinna, I search for memory.

Rather than embroidering a small pattern all over the place, embroidering a larger pattern should have less embroidery.

“… Why don’t you add flowers to” Ryusuimon “?”

“Ryu Immon?”

“Well, I put some flowers in the pattern of water flowing like this. If you spread the water or spread the petals, even if there are few embroidery parts, it is luxurious. I think it looks like … “

Draw a curvy curve on a stone plate, thicken or thin the thickness of the curved line, draw a flowing water pattern, and a small cherry-like petal with five appropriately elongated hearts. Try scattering your heart.

“It’s better to think about flowers for a little more, but the flow of water is nice. Mine is Benno’s brother’s goddess of water?”

Talking about the words that came out of Corinna’s mouth that laughed quickly, his mouth pulled. Even if Benno and I deny it, there is no way I can unravel the misunderstandings of my surroundings when I speak from the mouth of my sister, Corinna.

“… That’s Corinna-san, how far has it spread?”

“Is Otto interesting and spreading?”

…… Otto’s stupid. Be angry by Benno-san.

While eating the lunch prepared by Corinna, Corinna and Turi began to swell with a story about the flowers attached to running water. I don’t know the names of so many flowers, so they are left in spite of him.

“Colinna and Benno want to enter the room …”

“I’m bad during lunch, Corinna. Is there anything I’d like to give to Mine?”

“Yeah, it’s okay. Mine is over and seems to have spare time”

I was invited by Benno and jumped off the chair and headed to Benno.

“Where you don’t have other guys, read it alone. After that, leave it to you. If you have a solution you can think of, it’ll be helpful to tell you.”

“What …?”

When you give me a piece of paper and say so, Benno raises his hand lightly and returns to the store below.

I looked around and confirmed that there was no one, and I tried to spread the quadrifold paper that was handed right away on the spot. What was written on the paper was a list of problems that Benno had.

“A little, the next to the note paper of abuse and precautions is the letter on the assignment list?

¡Varying from the messy problem that Otto floated and becoming unusable after Corinna became pregnant, everything from Italian restaurant interiors, menus, services, and unit prices per customer. Some of them come up with a solution, while others can come up with it but don’t know if it is acceptable. Of course, the problem of completely raised hands is also lined up.

I went through each question, thinking about the answer to Benno. And the moment I read the last problem, I suddenly feel blood.

“What was Mine?”

How long he was standing on the spot, Turi looked into the letter with his face clouded with concern. In a hurry, I folded the letter, but I couldn’t read it.

“Hey, what’s written?”

“Because it’s work, it’s a secret”

While turning the Turi I wanted to know, I quickly put a paper with a list of problems into the bag.

Slowly sigh and wonder if there is any solution to the last problem, but it doesn’t come out immediately.

Benno told me that he took Lutz to the rest of the city after holding down the place in the workshop. I didn’t realize I couldn’t take it because I didn’t get permission from Lutz’s father.

Lutz believes Benno’s case just like me. Looking at Benno, who came back from the other town, he was amazed at the expectation, “Wouldn’t we decide where the workshop will be?” I can’t say to Lutz that “If my dad gives me permission, I can go tomorrow.” Lutz’s home will be cracked.

… I don’t know how to embrace Lutz’s dad.

I want to put flowers embroidered by Turi and Corinna in the spring, summer, autumn and winter, but I held my head beside it, rising from top to bottom or from left to right.

“It’s about a star festival”

“Wow! What?”

Listening to Lutz on the way to the temple, I looked around. Lutz narrowed his eyes and looked into me. It’s a difficult task for me to keep secret to Lutz, who is in physical condition.

“What is it, Mine. Isn’t it a lot?”

“I haven’t done it! What are you talking about?”

It seems that I was completely out of sight, and Lutz returned the topic after sighing one.

“Star festival. Can we go together this year?”

“Star festival? … Ah, was it a summer festival? Was it a water play?”

“Don’t hit water, hit tau fruit”

Tau fruit is a small red fruit seen in spring. I heard that in summer it contained a lot of water and was swollen like a fist. I understand that it’s like a natural water balloon, but I have never seen it.

“What is the star festival if you are not playing in the water?”

Since I have never participated, I don’t know what kind of festival it is. Lutz taught me to tilt my head.

The star festival is not actually a water play festival, but a wedding day. Apparently, it is a joint wedding held once a year, and hitting tau fruit seems to be an event related to the wedding.

“Those who are not related to the wedding go to the forest with the opening of the bell of 2 and pick up the fruit of the tau. When the bell of 3 rings, the wedding begins and ceremony with the bell of 4 The bride and groom will come out, and by then, they will lurk in various alleys around the central square and hold the tau fruit. “

At the baptism, I imagined a scene where a large number of people were on the main street, and I imagined a figure where everyone had a water balloon in their hands. Surreal. I do not understand what it means.

However, many events related to ceremonial occasions are unclear when viewed from the other side. The books I read in the past must have had a variety of occasions, such as weddings being held at weddings, invited guests pushing on the first night, and the lord’s first night. It ’s best to ask them that it ’s a culture here.

“So then?”

“After all the bride and groom entered the central square, the battle started when the bell rang. I hit the bride and groom with tau fruit”

“Eh ?? To the bride and groom !?”

“Yeah, the groom runs into the new house while protecting the bride. The guy’s armor is going to be tested. He usually hits various guys on the way to the bride and groom, throws them back and throws them back. And run around the city and become crap ”

“It’s a great festival”

Even in Japan, mysterious items are exchanged, but it makes sense, even if it is difficult to do so. If the fruit of the tau that hits the bride and groom is a fruit that can get a lot of seeds, it may mean prosperity of the offspring or prayer of the child.

“But, it’s the adults who couldn’t get married this year that gathered and hit the fruit of tau the most. Every year, there’s a lot of pressure on the eyes of the bride and groom.

Oh, I understand. That whisper came to my heart.

I was very unrelated to lovers and marriages, even during the Reino period. You can see how an adult who couldn’t get married wants to throw a lot of tau fruit into the bride and groom coming out of the temple with a happy smile.

“… I understand what the festival is. I’m looking forward to it, Lutz”

“Oh, Maine, are you willing to do it suddenly?” Then, after chasing with the tau fruit and the bride and groom are gone, festive food will be lined up in various squares. The child goes home because he can live, and then the child must never go outside.The next is a festival for adults only with alcohol. “

Apparently, there is only a festival named the star festival, and the most important event seems to be night. After the removal of children, the bride and groom appear and are celebrated, and it seems that this is a festival for unmarried adults to search for lovers. Lutz said that the most regrettable here are those who were born in summer with an adult ceremony at the end of summer.

“Is the orphanage children participating in the star festival?”

“Well? I’ve never seen it before … Mine has something to do in the temple? I’m sure it wasn’t until autumn, but could you go to the star festival together?” 19459002]

Lutz couldn’t answer immediately when asked uneasy. As long as there is a wedding in the temple, there may be some work.

“… I’m not sure, I’ll ask the priest,”

arriving at the temple, Lutz returns to the store. After seeing Lutz, I changed into the room and immediately asked Fran about the Star Festival while writing a letter since the visit to the priest.

“Hey, have you ever participated in the star festival?”

“Mine, it’s not a star festival. It’s a star ritual. Isn’t the star knot a ritual that thrives in marriage?”

In the temple, Fran said that the god of darkness, the god of supreme, blessed the marriage of the god of life and the goddess of earth in a ritual called the star knot rather than the star festival. Explained me.

Originally, it was a ritual that took place at night when it was easy to get protection from the god of darkness. When the number of people in the city increased so much that it was decided to divide the rituals between the nobility and the commoner, the commoner ritual began to take place in the morning.

“If it is the blessing of the god of darkness, the night time in winter seems to be longer …”

“Mine, the dark god allowed marriage in the summer and there is a dedication ceremony in the winter, so there seems to be no priest who can be blessed.”

Talking about denying Franc, I thought of a mid-winter wedding and shook my head lightly. I tried it myself, but there is no wedding in midwinter.

“If you think carefully, weddings are difficult in a snowstorm, and if a newlywed family wants to get ready for winter, it’s reasonable to get married before autumn. Then there will be no husband who makes a mistake and damages his wife’s mood. “

I wrote a letter saying that.

“Fran, can I ask the priest for this letter? I’d like to ask the priest about the role of the orphanage and me during the star festival.”

“I’m smart”

Despite meeting with the priest in the morning by organizing documents, it is necessary to meet for a little consultation and make a reservation by letter. I’m gradually getting used to such troublesomeness. If you have a trivial question, you often end up answering the letter.

Anyway, the sour mouth of Fran and the chief priest told me not to speak carelessly when there were others.

Even though he was prepared for a few days after the scheduled date of visit, the chief priest invited me to the hidden room with his head at the moment he read the letter he gave.

I’ll follow you quietly, but I can’t come up with a reason to hold my head in the letter of a visit request.

“Are you sure you have no appointment?”

“This fool. Is the starknot ritual the day after tomorrow? If the invitation is issued, will the ceremony be over?”

Immediately after I entered the hidden room, the priest chief sharpened my eyes. I usually sneak in my face, but in this room, the priest preaches with angry chills, so when I get angry, the usual room is better than here.

“Oh, is that so? It was almost time, so I just have a little more time …”

“Since it was natural in the temple, no one would have talked about it. The organization of the documents that had been collected so far has been slowing down, but I’ve put your education first. It seems to have to be done “

The Priest has clearly recognized that I have no knowledge of the temple events. This is bad. It’s a dangerous sign.

When I serve as the side of the priest, if I don’t like it, I feel that a rumored hot-blooded education will fall on me among the gray priests of the orphanage. At the end of the field of vision, the face of the priestess was amazed.

“No, you are … The answer to the question, but the star knot ritual is an adult ritual. You should not participate in the ritual as an apprentice. Rather, orphans are orphans as directors. Be careful not to leave the temple, because many people in the city are going in and out of the temple, and because the blue priests are covered by the priests, no one will leave the orphanage.

I was impatient when I was asked to go to the orphanage on the day of the festival. I don’t want to stay in an orphanage to participate in the star festival and throw tau fruit.

“Well, I want to participate in the star festival in downtown, isn’t it?”

“What is a downtown festival?”

The priest moved the eyebrows slightly.

“In the morning, all the kids in the city go to the forest to pick up the tau fruit. In the afternoon, it seems to be a festival where they collide with the tau fruit.”

“… What is that? What is the relationship with Hoshiknot?”

“I don’t know well. Last year, I had a heat of eating, and I had never been in good health before that, so I’ve never participated so far. I am there … “

The priest clearly cuts the eyebrows between the eyebrows. I want to say that I can’t do it, but it seems like a swaying face between refusal and sympathy that I feel sorry for being able to participate for the first time.

“… No, isn’t it? I think it would be quieter if the children from the orphanage were given off?”

“You can do it in the morning, but what do you do in the afternoon?” Is it going to hit the fruit? “It’s a problem when an orphan gets out into the city and there is a useless collision. The situation is that there is no person in charge. ”

After finishing the morning wedding, the blue priests and the side servants seem to go out of the temple for the aristocratic star-knot ritual.

If you don’t get angry, why don’t you play in the temple grounds?

“… That’s the priest, if you pick up the fruit in the forest in the morning and hit the fruit of the tau only in the orphanage of the temple so that you won’t give up outside in the afternoon.” I want to let the children experience the festival, because I’m new to it, so I was really looking forward to it … “

«The head of the priest, who had been blinded and thought for a while, slowly looked up.

“That’s OK. Clean it up. Then, it doesn’t matter if it’s noisy enough that the people of the city speak.”

“Thank you”

From the afternoon, we have a meeting at the orphanage. If the blue priest can’t find it, that’s fine. After cleaning the prayer room early in the morning, change to forest clothes and wait for me and Lutz to arrive. After that, I sneak out and go to pick up the tau fruit in the forest. Orphans who are usually locked up in orphanages are delighted.

“I am the gatekeeper that day”

“I am preparing a carriage”

Gray priests, who must participate in ceremonies, prepare carriages of blue priests to go to the noble town, and stand as gatekeepers, cannot pick up tau fruit in the forest. I look at the children who frolickly.

“But any role until the end of the ritual? The reason for throwing the tau fruit is after the blue priest and the side servants have gone to the aristocratic town, so after everyone’s role is over. It ’s better to have fun with everyone. Can you wait patiently until the priests have finished their duties? ”

When I asked the children, they sang a lot.

“Yeah, wait!”

“I pick up a lot of people who can’t come in the role”

The gray priest who had the role was compromised by having the children endure and preparing for dinner. It seems that the blue priests are paying out, so it seems that the day of the star knot ceremonies is without dinner every year.

“Let me ask my chef to make a lot”

After returning to the room, Fugo and Ella’s day of star-knot work ended with 4 bells. Instead, I asked Fran to make dinner.

Apparently, Fugo seems to be an unmarried adult and is eager to participate in the festival. I heard from Franc that he was eager to finish his work as soon as possible.

I can no longer hit Tau with the bride and groom, but I hope the orphanages will have fun.
