（だがこの見舞いの件に関しては一方で、利家が布団の下に抜き身の刀を忍ばせていたというエピソードが残っていたり、上記の話が江戸時代に幕府に提出するために作られた二次史料で、外様の大大名であった前田家が徳川家に媚びるため創作された記述とも言われ真偽は不明である。）

As indicated by the phrase 'refraining from greetings' due to mourning, the concept of sending the postcard is to say, 'We are sorry we can't send a New Year's greeting due to the mourning period,' as opposed to, 'We won't accept a New Year's greeting from you,' (while some people believe it's rude to send the nengajo to a mourning family, it's common to send a kanchuomimai [winter greeting card] instead).

尾上菊五郎 (5代目)のほうがよっぽど上手い」と面罵し、仲裁に入った左團次とももめたり、團十郎の活歴志向が気に入らず、彼が勤める曾我五郎が烏帽子に鎧脛当てという時代考証にのっとった写実的な装いだったのに対して、宗十郎の曾我十郎はあえて従前同様の小袖姿で登場し、そのちぐはぐなとりあわせは「火事見舞いに水見舞い」「兄は川へ洗濯に、弟は山へ芝刈りに」と嘲笑されるほどだった。
He condemned them and said that Kikugoro's performance was much better' and fought with Sadanji who intervened and Sojuro didn't like Danjuro's Katsureki-orientation, Danjuro re-creating authentically wearing a graphic outfit such as eboshi (formal headwear for court nobles) and Shinosuneate when he played Goro and on the other hand, when Sojuro played Juro, he appeared wearing kosode (short-sleeved kimono) as if he didn't wear costumes and this odd combination was even laughed at as if 'one was calling on someone to express one's sympathy after a fire and the other called on someone to express one's sympathy after water damage.', 'The older brother went to river to wash his clothes and the younger brother went to the mountain to mow grass.'
