I’M Really Helpless In Tokyo

This kind of kimono constitutes a picture as a whole, rather than a simple repeating pattern, which is called eiyu.

Because Ewa is mostly made by hand using Yuzen dyeing and tie-dyeing techniques combined with gold foil and embroidery, the process is complicated and time-consuming.

Therefore, it is often only used for weddings that the kimono is so painstaking, so this kind of kimono is also called "the kimono for the wedding."

The girls who were sold to Yoshiwara because of poverty at a young age have only dreamed of becoming a "taifu" admired by people like Asagiri.

Because only by becoming an oiran can you have the right to choose "love", waiting for a certain day to be redeemed by someone you love, putting on gorgeous wedding sleeves, and stepping on the solemn "eight-character steps" to leave gracefully. This besieged city of desire and sin intertwined.

However, looking at the entire Yoshihara Yukaku, how many oirans can there be?

More girls can only be defeated in the competition for beauty, become "cage birds", squeezed out of their youth in the flesh and lust, and finally die of poverty caused by old age and decay, or Died from the terrible "syphilis"...

"When the cherry blossoms bloom this year, the man with the same pattern on his sleeves will come to pick me up..."

Asagiri looked back at the huge cherry tree in front of Shinagawa Tower, eyes full of expectation.

"Is the cherry blossoms in full bloom? Isn't it next month... I can't bear sister Chaowu..."

"Here, this hairpin, here you..."

The girl was still in a daze in the melancholy about to leave, and a delicate tortoise-shell long hairpin was handed to her.

"Promise me, after that, you will take my hairpin and become the next oiran, to get back the freedom that belongs to you."

"Sister Chaowu...uuuuuu..."

"I quietly printed someone else’s family crest on my own "Hua Jiao Zhuang Xiu" before going through the door. It seems that it's really because he doesn't marry and is infatuated..."

"Hey...you stinky girl, what are you talking about, don't you want the hairpin anymore? ! 』

"Yes, although I haven't got my upper body yet, this kimono suits you very well..."

Just as the two laughed at each other, a hoarse and old voice came from the screen behind them.

"...This month's'Oiran Dochu', you should wear this one."

This is an old bustard wearing a plain kimono and a meticulous hair bun.

Judging from her exquisite features and tall figure, she must have looked pretty when she was young.

"Mother-in-law Jingzi, did you remember it wrong? It's not yet March... Didn't we say that we are done, we have to wait until the flowering period in April..."

Seeing this person, Chao Wu was taken aback for a moment, and then he showed a coquettish look.

It was this old bustard who was responsible for the management of "Shinagawa Tower", who discovered Chaowu's natural beauty and carefully cultivated it, so that she could stand out from the crowd and canonize the "Taifu" all the way.

"Stupid girl, still thinking about the sword idiot of Liu Sheng's family, others might have forgotten you long ago..."

"No, he won't... At the beginning of the year, he asked someone to bring a letter from Kyoto..."

"Your tame and redemption have been set in the building, just this month."

"What?! Taming and dyeing?! Redemption?!"

Hearing what the other party said, Asagiri and Shinzo beside him exclaimed at the same time!

This Jingzi mother-in-law who loves her mother and daughter on weekdays makes Asagiri feel shudderingly strange at this time.

You know, Asaomi, as a Taifu, has the right to choose his guests.

Moreover, even if Asagiri agrees to the "name" of an important guest, the building will strictly follow the love game procedures of "First Meeting", "Lifan" and "Tame Dye", and take the opportunity to scrape a lot of money from the guests. The oil and water will never give up until the last moment.

Who is it that can make Shinagawaro willingly break Yoshihara's many years of rules and give up large sums of benefits...

"You are right. He is a very valuable figure who will redeem you by name."

Seeing through what Chao Wu was thinking, Grandma Kyoko deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "extremely precious."

"Although the Yanagyu family is also a prominent samurai, compared with this one, it is a thousand miles away... Asami, this is a great opportunity for you to leap over the dragon gate and leave Yoshihara!"

"...It's also Shinagawa Tower, the best chance to sell me a big price, right?"

"You... hey... in the building you have been nurturing you to grow up. It is only natural to have something in return, but it will not ruin your home for the rest of your life..."

Pulling the cold face of Chao Wu into the house and bringing the door, Jing Zi's mother-in-law explained to her in a low voice, "This time, it is from the adult's order..."

"Shoji Jinemon-sama?!"

Hearing this word, Chao Wu's small face turned pale in fright and blurted out a certain name.

She grew up in Yoshiwara since she was a child. Naturally, she knew that this was the only one who could be called "the adult" in Yoshiwara.

Although each Yangya has a different owner, Shoji Shinemon, the founder of Yoshihara Yukoku, is the real master behind Yoshihara.

No matter how high-ranking officials and nobles, as long as they violate Yoshihara's rules, as long as he has a word, he will be castrated and splashed five steps by the magical and pervasive Yoshihara Self-Defense Force.

"Be quiet, how dare you call that adult's full name... You know, in Yoshihara, anyone can be that person's eyes and ears, including me..."

"Finally cultivated an oiran, who was willing to let people redeem it easily. But that adult spoke in person, and even the owner behind our Shinagawa Tower has no right to refuse."

Pulling Chaowu's sleeves, the boss continued to seduce him: "However, I am not joking with you when he said it was an opportunity for'Carp Leaping over the Dragon Gate'..."

"General Tokugawa Ietsuna, you know, that was the one who inherited the position of general at the age of ten, and the true king of Edo Castle. Although he was married to the public daughter Akiko Asamiya after the coming-of-age ceremony this year. It's fixed, but there are still two side rooms..."

"Although there is no definitive information, Louli asked various channels to inquire. Recently, this energy named an oiran directly in Yoshihara to ‘tame the dye’. It is only possible that he..."

"What about the general... Chao Wu has only one heart, and only one person is allowed in this life."

In Chao Wu's eyes, endless indifference slowly emerged.

"The slave family doesn't want to leap over the dragon gate, but wants to live and breathe with the one they love, as a pair of free swimming carps in the stream."

"Hey...you girl has been stubborn since she was a child, but has ever considered that if you offend these big people, what will happen to everyone in the'Shinagawa Tower'?!"

Leaving indifferent words, Kyoko's mother-in-law closed the door and left.

"...Anyway, this matter is set here, and you should be prepared."

In the empty room, Chaowu, who was kneeling on the ground, nodded noncommittal.

"I see, Asagiri... will be ready."

It turns out that the so-called "taifu" and "oiran" are nothing more than a bird in a cage with beautiful feathers, a little more expensive, and fettered by false freedom.

"Where is my home? Too many twists and turns, exhausted, where is my love?"
