Explanation:
"Japanese Quince" tells the story of Mr. Nilson a hardworking man who has become so used to his job that enjoying his environment now seems strange. He gets up one day only to feel a sensation. He decides to have breakfast and take a look at new story headlines. This is an indication of his inclinations to business. To calm his tensed feelings, and get some air, he takes a walk but soon finds out that his tensed feelings and sensations remained unabated. Then he sees a Japanese Quince tree, and although he is excited to see it thriving, he is carried away by awkward thoughts of his neighbor who is also taking in the scenery.

On the other hand, mothers have a Chinese cultural identity and believe that regulating that identity is disrespectful, since daughters are part of that identity as well.
