In a certain village, a pretty girl marries an older, not very attractive shoemaker. He is sensible, prudent, and enjoys a quiet family life, while she has a good heart but is short-tempered. That is why they quarrel all day long. The master, dissatisfied with married life, longs for something better. When the cobbler has had enough of everything, he decides to go out into the world. This changes the master completely. In his absence, she beautifies him in her imagination until she creates an image of a perfect, model husband. She rejects all suitors and bravely earns her living as an innkeeper. The shoemaker returns in disguise after some time. When he is convinced that his wife has been faithful to him, he makes himself known to her and hopes that she will welcome him with open arms. But he is bitterly disappointed; the dream has vanished, the mistress has realised the difference between her fantasies and reality, so that their life once again returns to its old ways.
