A baby I raised out of stubbornness after I stopped drinking and fighting with him. Torahachi, a Kawagoe jinpoku (a footman in the Kawagoe district), was a strong drinker and brawler at an inn in Kanaya, on the Oigawa River. One night, Torahachi went out to exterminate an evil fox that was said to be haunting the streets, but what he found there was an abandoned baby. Unable to leave the baby behind, Torahachi, out of sheer stubbornness, makes a grand gesture and says, "I'll raise it. However, as Torahachi spent time with the baby, he developed a deep affection for him. Years passed, and the baby, named Zenta, turned seven years old. Torahachi and Zenta live happily together. However, when Zenta's unexpected birth is revealed, the day of their separation is approaching.
