It's just who they're working for.
As said on the first floor, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is really lifting shoes for Nobuo Oda, but instead of lifting shoes, he warms Nobuo Oda's shoes on his chest, so Nobuo Oda doesn't need to wear cold shoes in winter.
In other words, it was an honor to cook for Daming during the shogunate period. For the samurai at that time, although cooking was done by women, it was not shameful to cook for Daming, but few men were willing to do such a thing. This is really true.
On the other hand, during the Middle Ages in Japan (from the Warring States to the Tokugawa shogunate), people did not eat well because of years of war. Basically, they are all brown rice. If they can cook for Daming, they can at least eat polished rice, which is already a sign of prominent position. You should know that polished rice was called "Jade Relic" at that time, and this kind of polished rice is not something that ordinary people or even ordinary warriors can eat. At that time, basically all the middle and lower class soldiers were there.
I haven't seen this film, but I have watched Japanese history for quite a long time. The diet in medieval Japan was actually very poor. I mentioned brown rice and tea-soaked rice, as well as dried plums, miso and pickled radish. When you cook for Daming, can you at least touch the meat?
You know, in Japan at that time, people were forbidden to kill poultry except by name. You see, other people's families are eating wild vegetables and brown rice. Although your family can't eat it every day, you can see meat and fish for hundreds of meters from time to time, and even eat a few small fish or shellfish. Isn't this a symbol of Gao Fushuai?
Therefore, cooking for Daming at that time was not shameful. Are you satisfied with the landlord?
