becomes again

 "At the end of the meal the chopsticks are thrown away, the few plates are washed and put away, and the dining-room becomes the sitting-room again. Later on it will be a bed-room. There is no moving of furniture, no complication, no clattering of knives, forks and spoons. Everything is of the simplest."
