A 20-year old young man who has been brought up by a foster mother in the countryside has fallen in love with another foster child in the same "family" and the two have decided to get married.

She is against his marriage but her husband is not.

Before things deteriorate any further, the husband has some news for his wife that helps her to see the foster mother in a different light.
