From the Inn Town Exchange, three days later.
Finally, that day - the tenth day of the blue moon, came.
The tenth day of the Blue Moon is the day fixed as the annual Conference of Parents.
Parents of all families living by the woods gather in the settlement of Sung on this day to discuss matters related to the end of the forest. That was the Parents' Conference on the Forest Side.
Since the Sung family had already been disqualified as chieftaincy muscles, they also seemed to have raised their voices that the venue should not be moved elsewhere, but for this year it was to be braved as it was. The sacrificial hall, which can accommodate dozens of human beings, was only present in Sung's settlement by the woods.
As long as Totos and the luggage truck are available, it is possible to return to their respective homes after the meeting. but after the meeting, it is customary to drink fruit to deepen rapport. It's dangerous to drive a luggage car after a fluttering fruit booze, and you can't stop feasting on getting intimate. Due to those circumstances, it seemed decided that this year's Parents' Conference would also be held in the Sung family's sacrificial hall.
"All right, then we're leaving."
An eye-fa, holding Gilr's reins, will raise his voice from the throne. When I got stuck on the carrier, I asked them to say "yes" on behalf of me.
In this luggage van were me and Ai-Fa, the red folk girl Tia, Tour-din, Yun-Sudra, and the young ladies of the Lid family.
Me and I-Fa are the only ones attending the Parents' Meeting, and Tia goes to the Sung family to show her face to the parents, and the rest of the women take charge of their turn. It was difficult for the women living in Sung's settlement alone to cook meals for everyone attending the Parents' Conference, and that they should in any case unveil the latest edition of delicious dishes, which meant that a few pieces of numbers could be collected from Fa's nearest family and Luu's blood, as well as Zaza's blood.
"If you weren't a close family member with Fa or Luu, you wouldn't have had a chance to mouth the dishes these days. If you say something about him or a fool or a chaska, everyone will be very surprised."
Yun-Sudra said so with a smile.
Then I noticed how Tour-Din was, and I said, "What's going on?" and speak up. Tour-Din has been restless for a long time.
"Yes, no, it's nothing.... it's just that if I fail, I'm going to embarrass both Fa's house and Zaza's... I'm just a little worried"
"It's okay. Is Tour-Din usually entrusted with partitioning feasts even in the northern settlements? Nothing to worry about."
Because I am unable to participate in the cooking today, Kamado's partition was entrusted to both Tul-din and Raina-Lou.
In addition, each of the two names will lead a different team to serve another dish. Half of the food served at dinner would be served under Thur-din's responsibility.
"We will also do our best to support Tour-Din. Don't worry, I'll handle it."
"That's right. Tour-din will be fine."
Lid's ladies are also encouraging by holding Thur-din's hand. Tia was smiling, too, looking at such a sight.
"Tia's in a good mood just now. Was there something fun going on?
"Hmm? Tia is just happy to be by Asta's side. I was wondering if I could keep it in the other house again today."
It was, of course, the three chiefs who had ordered Tia to accompany them. Tia's injuries still needed time to heal, so she came to the conclusion that all the parents should be shown their appearance today.
"I know you'll be able to keep it somewhere else when you're done showing your face, but don't ever make a scene there, okay?
"Absolutely. Tia swears she will never break the words of the people by the woods, even if she perishes."
Tia said so, sparkling her eyes as deep red as Garnett's.
I'm sure the Trinity Chiefs have ordered accompaniment to the Conference of Parents to let them know more precisely why they decided to believe Tia's words. The idea is to let the heads of each family see with their own eyes how innocent Tia is.
(I'm sure there's nothing more I can do about Tia. More legitimate than that, it should be us)
The main item on today's agenda is, after all, about the correctness or otherwise of the deeds of the house of Fa.
Is it right to do business in the lodging town? Is it right to sell the meat and dishes of Giva to gain more wealth than ever before? That's what they talk about.
At the last Conference of Parents, Zuro-Sung, with his evil sagging, was the chairman, so he was ended without drawing any conclusions. As far as the conduct of Fa's house was concerned, it was stipulated that the next Conference of Parents should not ask whether it was correct or not.
Later, the Sung family's disqualification from the chieftaincy muscle did not result in that ruling being relaxed. At the time, it had only been less than half a month since I started doing business, and other issues were piling up, so I still settled on the conclusion of how things were going.
Of course for me and Ai-Fa, that was fortunate. I just need you to come to a conclusion as to whether or not we're doing the right thing, after you've seen what it looks like. However, when I started doing business for about half a month, there was no way I could be convinced that it was the wrong thing to do.
A year after that, we've pushed at all costs.
A lot of people have seen what it looks like.
Will the deeds of Pha's house be poisonous or medicinal for the people by the woods? Today was the very existence that allowed me to take that answer solemnly.
"Oh, from behind, another luggage truck chased us."
And Yun-Sudra raised her haunted voice.
The back of the front left the book open, the entrance and exit. What was seen from it was the appearance of Chim-Sudra holding Fafa's reins at your table.
When Yun-Sudra and I wave, Chim-Sudra also waves back to the shade. You can't even see the expression at this distance, but you must be smiling so hard. In your luggage, the blood folk, the parents of Fou, Lan and Sudra and the men of your offering, were supposed to be on board.
Today, Totos and luggage purchased at the houses of Fa and Luu are loaned to their respective families. In the past year, Totos and the number of luggage cars had also increased considerably, so that would have made it possible to cover all families.
(A year ago, you were walking along this road with the Lew bloodlines.)
If there is no mistake in my memory, it was also then that I first exchanged words with Rau-Ray. Back then, I was only close to a very limited number of people.
(That's now face-to-face with almost every clan. I don't have any interaction at all...... about some, non-parental clan people)
I was kind of totally emotional.
For me, the 10th of this blue moon is an important day of separation, comparable to the 24th of the yellow moon, when I first visited the woodland.
Soon, it's Sung's settlement.
That is how the Ai-Fa of your table told you.
After a while, the luggage truck stops. The five men who had fitted on the carrier all stepped down to the ground, as I had indicated.
Then there's not even enough to wait, and Fafa's luggage truck catches up. When Chim-Sudra stepped down from your podium, the Birdu-Fow and Lyelpham-Sudra also showed up.
"Thank you very much. That was a much quicker snack."
"Hmm. I wanted to exchange words with the parents of Lew and Die beforehand."
Me and Ai-Fa left home early to deliver the Kamadu Tour-din. There should still have been some respite for the start of the Conference of Parents.
Okay, let's go.
Step into the square of Sung's settlement, leading Ai-Fa, who pulled Gil's reins.
For me, it's been just about six months since I visited by the bare hand of cooking.
The Lid women, who seem to have stepped foot in the land for the first time, are shouting "Wow." You must be surprised at the size of the sacrificial hall built in the middle of the square.
It is a huge building with a dome of about 20 meters in diameter. Although the height is lower than the width, it is nevertheless about two stories tall. The appearance of a giant dinosaur corpse, covered by hay, remained the same.
"The house of the bundler is that way."
When I pointed in the direction, Ai-Fa walked "uhm". Since it was Sudra's house that handled the blood drain at the Sung family, Ai-Fa was the first visit in a year.
That's how we bypassed the sacrificial hall and proceeded to walk, and there was already a few luggage cars in the place we were looking for, and there was a crowd.
"Oh, welcome to Sung's house. I've been waiting for you, Asta at Fa's house. … and everyone else."
An old woman, who looked familiar, sneezed her face and drooled her head. He is the elder of this new house of bondage. Now this house was set as the main house of the new Sung, bringing together the other branches.
Actually, I guess I'm not as old as an old woman, but my hair is almost bright white and my face is wrinkly. Those eyes stared at Tia in quite a surprise.
"Oh... you're the Red Wildlings..."
"Red wildlings think of themselves as beasts similar to tototosses and hounds, and need no more heart. When something goes wrong, give a voice to the sheikhs."
When Birdu-Fow took it that way, the old woman lay her eyes down, "Yes, I did..."
"The Kamadoku people at the Lew family have already started their work… These people are looking forward to your arrival"
There awaited were the men of Die and Lehn, and the women of Fou and Run, who had ridden with it. I heard the Die people were going to the venue early as well, so I asked for the ride beforehand.
"Thank you very much. Thank you for agreeing to ride with us."
"No, this is a luggage rented from Fa's house, so there can't be anything to complain about."
An elderly but low-lying die parent smiles and says so.
And the person was also courteous to Birdu-Faw. Fou and Die were both family members with raw meat for sale, so they had a lot of intimacy.
And what I refrain from as the offering of Die's parents is the Deal-Die, which I have seen face to face on my way to the market for meat. Deal-Die, who had a gentle face, had bowed his head when he noticed my gaze, "I'm hissing," he said.
"Hi, I'm hissing. Deal-Die was here, too."
"Were you remembering names such as me?... Yes, I was my second brother in the main house, so I came up as a parent."
Speaking of which, he once had a rather formidable past of concern for both Vina-Lou and Yamil-Ray. I guess Yamil-Ray and I were supposed to get on the edge when we visited the Sung family in this way at the Conference of Parents.
Either way, three people of luggage have assembled, and they are already quite a number of people. The women of Fou and Run were joining Tour-Din and others with a smile.
"Uh, now we have help from Zaza's blood family, too, right?
"Yes, I think it's time to arrive..."
When Tour-Din answered that way, he could hear the tone pulling the gallows and the luggage.
From the shadow of the sacrificial hall appears the women holding the reins. It was Sufila-Zaza, the youngest sister of the Zaza main house.
"Thank you for waiting, Tour-Din. Have you been a little late?
"Yes, no, that's not true. Thank you for your time today."
"Yeah, welcome."
While Sphilla-Zaza was answering, the other ladies came down from the luggage car loosely.
Dom, Gene, Havilla, Dana - and an elite unit of Zaza's blood, plus Morn-Rutim, the guest. Morn-Rutim, who noticed us, smiled from afar.
In addition to the four Fou, Run, Sudra and Lid, this was the total number one under the command of Tour-Din. If I may say so, it is a mixed unit of the Zaza and Fou families of blood.
"And then you can rent half the women of the Sung family, right? What should we do first?
When Sfira-Zaza asked with a resolute face, the old woman of the Sung family offered her hand as she drowned her head in a groan.
"Now, let me show you guys how to lend it. The women will refrain from you…"
Tour-Din has been gracious to me, squeezing his expression all the time.
"Then we shall get to work. Good luck, Asta and Ai-Fa."
"Yeah. I'll check on you later when I have time."
Tour-Din received Gilr's reins from Ai-Fa and walked away with the rest of the women. The luggage truck is loaded with a number of ingredients, starting with Chaska.
According to Thur-din's story, the havillas and Dana women are still in the state of apprenticeship. but the Kamadoku numbers in the northern settlements have gained a lot of strength, and Yun-Sudra and the others, needless to say, said that this should enable them to do their job properly.
As we thought about what we should do, a small figure emerged from the shadow of Die's head of household.
"What will you do? If you can relax until the beginning of the meeting, we will prepare for it."
That was a boy as old as Rimi-Lou.
The men hunt for giva, and the women work, so only the old men and young children are left free in the Sung family.
"Let me say hello to the Lew family, who I work for. What do you guys do?
"I'm going to wrap up a story with Die's parents about the City of Meat. There must be no strange difference in what we say."
So the ten male members of Fou and Die's bloodline hid themselves in Sung's branch house with guidance from the toddler.
And then the toddler leads us to the shack behind our back. Though he had a slight glance at the red wildlings Tier, he would not try to mention anything.
White smoke was rising early from the window of Kamado's cabin.
"Excuse me," the toddler opened the doorboard, "Ah!" A cheerful voice pops up.
"Asta to Ai-Fa! And Tia! You're already here!
As can be seen from the content of the words, it was Rimi-Lou.
When I rinse between the other Kamadu numbers past them and come out of the Kamadu cabin, I hug Ai-Fa "wow" first.
"I was wondering if the i-fa wouldn't come until the Parents' Conference started! Oh, I'm so glad."
"Mm-hmm. I'm looking forward to cooking for the Rimi-Loux today."
Ai-Fa was gently narrowing her eyes, while stroking Rimi-Lou's reddish hair.
Indulge in the warmth of Ai-Fa before turning to Rimi-Lou Hagurin and Tier.
"Some dishes are made with vanilla, so look forward to Tia! Because it's delicious!
"Okay. Stay tuned."
Tia was smiling, too. Tier's side takes the directed emotions intact, so it's a perfectly friendly relationship with innocent Rimi-Lou.
By the way, Rimi-Lou asked about this innocent behavior from Giza-Lou, "Isn't it inappropriate? He said that he was tempted, but he did not change his attitude.
"'Cause you can treat Tia like a tototoss or a hound, right? That's why Rimi is doing it!
Rimi-Lou apparently responded that way with a naive smile.
So I guess Giza-Lou, too, can no longer overlap words. In fact, Rimi-Lou treated his opponents equally like humans, whether they were tototos or hounds.
"Ai-fa to Asta, good job. Did you go out of your way to say hello?
And Rayna-Lew also gave me a peek in the face.
It looks like there are only eight women working in this cabin. The blush said that there were five Luu bloodlines and three Sung ladies, and when they realized what I looked like, they all smiled and greeted me.
"The other half uses the kamadu cabin in the next house, which is partitioned by Sheila-Lou."
"I see. Looks like the work is proceeding without delay."
It would have been less of a struggle for this one, consolidated in Luu's blood, than for Tour-Din, who leads the mixed unit. Besides, the presence of two tops, Raina-Lou and Sheila-Lou, must be quite a strength.
"Speaking of which, haven't the men come yet? On the surface, I could see a lot of luggage."
"Yes, Lew, Rutim, Ray, and Lilyn are already here. I think Donda's father and Gazran-Rutim are talking to Sung's parents."
After stating it that way, Raina-Lou chuckled.
"Brother Durm, Lau-Ray and Schmiral must be Kamadu cabins over there. There are Sheila-Lou, Yamil-Ray and Vina's sister."
"I see. That's a convincing look."
Rau-Ray himself is the head of the household, and Darum-Lou is the head of the household. And Schmiral is made to greet him, as he became a family by the woods from the margins.
"Oh! If you think of someone, Isn't it Ai-Fa to Asta! You guys are here, too!
Suddenly I looked back in surprise at the shout, where Dan-Rutim and Gillan-Lillin stood.
"Oh, that? Was Dan-Rutim here too?"
"What are you talking about! I did get out of my parents' seat, but I can't help but say hello at the Parents' Conference!
Instead of Dan-Lutim laughing gahaha, Gillan-Lillin supplemented me.
"If you let your parents take over while you have life, it is the forestside lesson that the previous parents will provide for in the first year. If Dan-Rutim looks so healthy, he's going to wonder why he gave up his parents' seat."
"No one can wonder if Gazlan knows how smart he is! He'd be more right to lead Rutim's house than I am!
Whatever it was, it was a comforting story that both Dan-Rutim and Gazran-Rutim were face-to-face.
And Similar to me, Schmiral will be present at the Parents' Conference. Once again, I was reminded of my differences from last year.
(Plus, in addition to Luu's blood clan, there are many other clans that will hold Fa's house back. We're gonna be okay.)
Thinking that way, I looked back at Ai-Fa better.
Ai-Fa had a very quiet look, comparing Dan-Rutim to Gillan-Lillin's smile.
