KIKIYO
stay over

The grandmother and the woman, they were talking to each other, the woman who was talking was looking directly at Yamato and kikiyo with a frightened face.

"Grandmother, we cannot accommodate others, we are in distress, whispered the woman who is still heard by kikiyo.

Kikiyo moved her legs closer to the grandmother and the woman.

"We will continue the journey, I don't want to trouble anyone." kikiyo's words were so gentle that even the person who heard it did not have the heart to throw him away.

"Madam I can only give you a temporary place to rest, but there's not enough food here, I'm sorry." said the woman who was holding the baby.

Kikiyo looked towards Yamato.

"Darling, I want to eat the meat of the hunt, but I don't know where to get it because I only have the season."

Kikiyo spoke like that because she did not want to be like telling her husband, because it was disrespectful so she chose to ask with a spoiled face.

While Yamato felt like a good husband he would give whatever his wife wanted, and he felt proud that kikiyo needed him.

"Okay, my dear, just prepare the seasoning, let me hunt, I will bring you a big hunt."

Kikiyo immediately smiled broadly at her husband's answer,

"My husband is the best."

Kikiyo knows her husband's weakness, if Yamato likes to be praised very much, the guy is very happy when the wife says that sentence, and he says it, with big strides and a flowery heart Yamato rode his horse towards the forest.

Kikiyo approached the old woman again,

"Grandmother, relax my husband will bring a lot of meat."

"Thank you madam, we are indeed in trouble for food in this village, as a result of the act of bandits earlier." said the grandmother while asking kikiyo to go inside

But kikiyo refused and wanted to sit on the bench on the porch of the house while waiting for Yamato to come,

As kikiyo was preparing the seasoning the grandmother approached kikiyo and sat on the same bench,

"Madam, can grandma help,."

"Of course it can be granny, oh yes granny here lives with anyone?, if I may know."

"Of course, madam, that was my daughter-in-law's son, my son's husband died in the hostess war, he died leaving two children and now,,,."

Grandma stopped her speech making kikiyo curious but she did not want to force grandma if it could open the old wound.

The grandmother continued her words.

"Now the grandmother's granddaughter is sick mistress so grandmother is confused, in this village there is no healer I want to take her to the capital but do not have money, the grandmother wants to ask her to the mistress, sorry if the grandmother is presumptuous"

Grandma's face was very sad and scared when she expressed her intention of accompanying kikiyo at this time.

"Let me check on Grandma's granddaughter's condition, may."

Grandma's face lifted and looked surprised.

"Is the mistress a physician?."

"Maybe but may I try, who knows I can give you a solution."

Grandma got up from her seat and took kikiyo's hand to go into her house, kikiyo only resigned when she was pulled by grandma.

After arriving in a room, there was a boy lying weakly in bed, the woman who had brought the baby was immediately away from his side, after the grandmother gave her understanding.

Kikiyo approached the boy and started to check on him.

Kikiyo understood the child's condition after seeing and feeling the child's pulse, concluding that the child was affected by typhus symptoms,he took some medicine as well as some dried plants that he bought while on the trip.

After finishing concocting the medicine, kikiyo gave it to the boy,

"Grandmother, no need to worry granddaughter just need a break now.

Grandma just nodded her head

Shortly thereafter, the sound of footsteps approaching the grandmother's house.

Kikiyo hurried outwards,

While descending while carrying the results of the hunt, Yamato was very happy and smiled because Yamato thought that his wife would praise him even more this time.

"Honey, here I brought a young deer and I cleaned it in the river there so you don't have to bother anymore."

Kikiyo approached Yamato with a cheerful face, then she kissed Yamato's cheek briefly.

"Thank you dear husband."Take the young deer meat brought by Yamato."

Kikiyo immediately seasoned the meat and began to roast, Yamato swiftly helping the wife.

After the meat is cooked, kikiyo takes it into the house, she wants to give the meat to her grandmother, children and grandchildren.

After the grandmother received the food she cried again, and the woman who was the daughter-in-law of the grandmother also cried.

Kikiyo could not bear this sadness, eventually she preferred to eat out with her husband, both of whom.

"Darling, are you tired?." said Yamato while looking at kikiyo's face.

Kikiyo immediately hugged her husband's arm.

"I should have asked like that my husband, you were hunting."

"I never get tired of eating for my wife." Yamato said as he pinched his cheek.

Yamato was very happy that kikiyo was acting this sweet to, while chatting, Yamato saw a firework-like object inside the pouch that kikiyo was carrying.

He took it, he took it,

"This fireworks are for what dear."

"Oh, that's I don't know, just take it, save it."

Yamato returned the fireworks, while his eyes looked around.

"Darling, are we going to sleep in this place."

"Yes, do you mind my husband."

Yamato immediately put on an ordinary face with a slight smile.

"Of course not baby, I'll sleep wherever you sleep."

Soon, my grandmother came out with two blankets.

"This lady I have some blankets for you to wear and maybe these blankets are not worth what you wear, accept."

"Take the blanket from my grandmother's hand, thank you very kind grandmother."

"You sleep there, pointing to a shack building, where the room is clean so, good night." said grandma while walking away from kikiyo and Yamato.

Yamato who had been listening to the kikiyo conversation just smiled.

"Honey, may we rest." said Yamato while embracing kikiyo's shoulder.

Kikiyo just nodded her head and the two of them went towards the hut that grandma had told her about.

When Kikiyo opened the door, it was seen inside a bed made of old wood.

Kikiyo stared at Yamato who was taking off his robe to hang.

"Hem, are we going to sleep on this bed?" said Yamato with an uncertain face

"Where else, dear?."

Kikiyo instantly widened the First blanket to bed their bedding replacement sheets, then the second blanket to cover their bodies.
