Pastoral Melancholy (japanese Novella Classic)
General Fiction田园的忧郁（日本中篇经典）
(japan) Haruo Sato
"Hey! What was knocked off just now?" "Well, a Western-style plate, bought for a dime." "Huh, a plate bought for a dime? You probably think that the plate is only worth a dime, so it will be knocked off, right? But you don't know that whether it is a dime or a dollar, these are the prices that people temporarily mark at their will. To me, the value of that plate is more than a dime. Even a plate is worth a penny. It's so precious. Oh, please sit down. You have knocked down five plates in one month. You were not thinking about the plate, so the plate got angry and fell from your hand. You really shouldn't be thinking about Tokyo at all. You don't understand the richness of this quiet pastoral life. "
