The short story “The Christmas Tree and the Wedding” by Fyodor Dostoevsky was told by an unknown person. A wedding he saw by chance reminded the hero of an incident at a children's ball.
This is a story about monetary gain, and how greedy a person can be when thirsty for profit. And how strange and difficult were the customs when parents selected grooms for their daughters.
The story will make you smile.
