Young Hiroko leads an unhappy existence in the rich Horie household after her marriage to Shin'ichi. Her young sister-in-law, on the other hand, has a kindhearted but penniless lover, Toshio, who is far too poor to propose to her and who tries to improve his fortune by pilfering from the family business.
