"A Little Thing" mainly tells a story: In the winter of six years of the Republic of China, "I" went out to make a living and hired a rickshaw. On the way, the rickshaw handle met an old woman in rags. "I" didn't think she was hurt, so I waved the driver away, but he ignored me completely. Instead, he ran to help the old woman, asked her how she was injured, and then sent her to the police station for examination.

At that time, "I" looked at the back of the driver and felt that he was no longer humble, but became great. "I" felt so small and guilty. Later, the police asked me to rent a car by myself, and I asked him to give the fare to the driver.

"A Little Thing" tells that the intellectual "I" saw the hope of life from a rickshaw driver and gained the strength to transform myself. The work depicts the tall and positive image of rickshaw driver with sincere writing, and expresses the author's respect and praise for the city coolies with warm singing.
