Full plot (contains spoilers)
A nobleman marries a wealthy but supposedly ugly woman because he is broke and hopes to save himself financially. The marriage is meant to be platonic, but when the count gets to know her better, he falls in love with her. She wants to put him to the test because she thinks he married her for love, but she is unsure. The joke, however, nearly turns into a serious affair, until the uncle—despite his comically cluelessness—saves the marriage.
