Little Zhuge's Stall Tales

They run little shops along the street, set up stalls under awnings, prepare breakfast, walk around calling out to customers, and sell miscellaneous goods. They pack everything away in the evening and set it all up again in the morning. They live in a small town, ordinary families leading ordinary little lives, tending to their own small affairs while making a living in their own way. They do not chase after grand achievements, but with the little joys of family life, the occasional bumps and scrapes, and a leisurely pace, life still has plenty of flavor.
