When Koitori’s poor father decides to sell the plate to get the money her husband demanded from him, Koitori commits suicide to resolve all the problems.

After her marriage at an early age, she is compelled to live with her husband in the town. However, the poor girl finds her childhood again in the paintings of an artist, whom she meets in the town’ Mili gives the detail.
