Synopsis
Although famous novelist Heishiro Hirayama's daughter Anzukko is at the marrying age, she rejects one suitor after another. When she finally finds one she likes, the would-be writer and local bookshop attendant Ryokichi steps in to spread rumours that the man behaved dishonourably while serving in the army.
