A Desirable Marriage (おいしい結婚)

Good morning!

-Where are you heading today? - Towards the sea.

Make sure to pay attention to the wind direction.

- Do you play golf too? - I would like...

But, I think circumstances will not allow us to play together.

I see, understood...

See you later!

She suddenly waved her hand. What's up with her?

Because she seem suspiciously busy today.

Is she secretly up to something behind our back?

Well, wives have a good sense of these things.

Oh, come on.

Unless she decides something for herself again.

The Desirable Marriage.

Girl, won't you ride with us?

I thought those were some cheeky guys. Nice to see you!

-"Where are you heading today?" - "Just to the sea."

Did something interesting happen?

Tell me about it.

Mieko, don't look at me like that.

But I'm worried.

Even if I fall, there's nothing to worry about.

I'm strong.

I worry that you might cut off too many branches.

How rude...

I'm kidding. I'm worried about you, Yamauchi.

Non, doesn't your company deal with electrical equipment?

It wouldn't hurt for you to know how to properly connect cables.

Uncle, why don't you wear your company's fashionable clothes?

We specialize in clothing for women and children.

That's why I don't work with cables.

And besides, they're terribly uncomfortable.

We should replace them with something more comfortable soon.

Listening to the customer's opinion is the key to success. You must remember that.

You're smart to catch on so quickly.

Really?

Grandma, are you sure this is necessary?

Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have asked.

Less talk and let's get to work.

Come to my hospital for an MRI.

You might look healthy on the outside, but there could be something wrong inside.

Do you want to find out what's inside me this way?

And you won't disappoint.

[On paper, a mahjong combination. Signature: "a true victory"]

Thank you all.

We're hardly tired at all.

Boys, thank you very much.

Non, we brought something. You'll like it, take a look?

What is this?

It's unlikely to be something expensive.

Over time, it could turn out that way.

- Let me guess, photos of grooms? - Bullseye.

We all thought about it here...

and brought our candidates.

We're not forcing you into anything.

If you wish, meet with all three of them.

Oh, I hadn't thought about that at all.

To avoid embarrassment, we're not asking you to open them here.

Take a look at them in your room, humming a little tune.

Now, just not too quickly. We need to gossip.

Alright, with your permission, I'll go take a look.

Mieko,

Does Non have a boyfriend?

Judging by her face and behavior, it doesn't seem like it.

If she's hiding something, then their relationship must be serious.

Our girls are great, all perfectly matched.

These days, all girls dream of such things.

But it seems Non isn't one of those who care about certain traits.

It's thanks to her upbringing.

She values the feeling of love itself.

Let's play mahjong already!

Yamauchi, one more bet.

Mieko, do you have a strong hand?

Hooray!

Excellent!

Don't be upset.

Oh, I'm so excited. No one's waiting for me at home.

- Golf all night, then? - Yeah.

I'm not against it, but it's still better to go home.

Family worries, you know.

Dear, they're all busy people. No one's planning to sit here.

I believe the future lies in technology, which, like cars,

will be divided into different price segments.

And I think such division is no longer in fashion.

Now people are united by common interests, not their social status.

For example, people who love a certain music genre

will prefer a certain design of refrigerator.

I think we should rely on such observations.

But status is not influenced by fashion. Isn't that a plus?

Why are you so fixated on status?

Because people like to show off their belonging to it.

Girls, the meeting is over. That's enough for you.

Many find partners at work.

But I don't like that.

After all, if you have the same social status, you won't have the desire to develop.

Usually, women are attracted to men who are at the top of society.

I will look for mine at parties and wedding banquets.

What's the point of a man with a higher status?

To boost your self-esteem?

Because if your characters don't match, such a marriage will be unhappy.

That's why they hold matchmaking events, so you don't regret it later.

So far, none of them has caught my eye.

Non, instead of relying on your feelings, listen to the uncles - they have experience.

Oh, come on.

The main thing is that you don't regret it later.

And I will never get married.

You won't?

My body...

is not suitable for marriage.

I'm kidding.

But for the future, keep in mind that...

not everyone around you might enjoy hearing about weddings and grooms.

Oh, I'm so tired.

Non, do you toss your disc to avoid getting tired on the stairs?

To truly feel a break, you need to use the stairs

instead of the elevator.

And here's your fellow enthusiast.

Hey, why are you all walking? Is that the new trend?

Looks like we have a gathering of athletes here, right? Got it.

Damn, we need to run. Girls, hurry up.

You're puffing again. Are you looking for a girlfriend?

Can't I just do it for fun?

Maybe you shouldn't have handed her three grooms right away like that?

Has she not been involved with anyone yet?

But she can compare them and make a reasoned decision.

We should be happy now, not agonizing.

Nothing cheerful.

We need to keep an eye on her, so she doesn't mess anything up.

It's not easy for Non.

But we don't think about that and just try to make Non happy.

Will Mieko be happy when Non gets married?

If she had a husband, she would share her happiness with her daughter.

But now she might be upset that her daughter-rival got married before her.

So,

maybe we shouldn't have brought up matchmaking?

I will definitely make Mieko happy.

I will definitely make Mieko happy.

You, bachelor, can get married right away.

But I could just as easily get divorced and become a bachelor.

Things are not easy in my family.

Damn it, the three of us can't compare to her late husband.

Will Mieko really be happy to marry any of us?

If so, I'll fight for her.

We talk so easily about her happiness,

but it's just our wishful thinking.

No one has become happier just from getting married.

Isn't that right, Ono? Tamiya?

So you're the one talking about her happiness.

And in general, happiness and unhappiness don't just easily transition into each other.

Damn it, let's talk about something else. Men sitting here discussing happiness.

About what, numbers?

For example, can we trust the scales?

Yes, we can.

Why are there so many things? Are they all defective?

She rejected him right before the wedding, and now He getting rid of everything that remind of her.

- Oh, is the customer a man? - Yes.

He already scolded me too. I'm starting to understand her.

A strange girl came in.

I'm afraid I can't handle it. Could you serve her?

Sorry for the wait. Are these your things?

How much were you offered for them?

The amount is quite reasonable.

But why?

After all, these are very expensive things.

You're right.

However, we usually pay this much for clothes.

First, it's hard to store them. Second, few people buy used items.

- Like that. Is it your first time here? - Yes.

Tell us more, please.

What are you planning to spend the money on?

For a wedding.

But these items will be useful for you at parties and dates.

They were all gifts to me.

If anything, it was a suitor who gave them.

Do you only have clothes? If you want to earn more, bring in more stuffs.

Really?

I'm ready to bring them in. Please give me your business card.

For the future: only accept gifts from those you truly love.

It will make me feel more at ease, and you'll be better off.

I'll remember that.

- Will you go to practice on Sunday? - I doubt it, I have things to do.

What are you hinting at?

I have matchmaking events.

But that's great, isn't it?

So far, neither good nor bad. Just matchmaking.

Usually people are happy about matchmaking.

I might get married later.

That's exactly what they're happy about. Who feels sad at the thought of a wedding?

That's why they go to matchmaking events.

Listen, now that you're in the know,

don't you have your own opinion?

You don't have to pretend.

Don't go to matchmaking events.

Oh, what are you talking about.

Sunday will be beautiful weather. Perfect for tossing the discus into the blue sky.

Let's go to practice.

And matchmaking events are an opportunity that fate has given me.

Oh, I can't wait to see my fiancé.

Mom...

I won't go.
