This is a tender story.
I have thought about many possibilities and N ways about love, but living an ordinary life is the best thing I can think of. Maugham said: "I have spent my whole life pursuing an ordinary life." Ordinaryness is great.
"Mr. Zuo and Me" is such a plain story. They lived their ordinary lives with daily necessities, rice, oil and salt. Each chapter is an independent story, but connected together. I hope that while it warms you, it also warms myself.
