The
Secret to A Happy Marriage
26
Aril 2007

There is a happy family in
Jiangan district of Wuhan city in China, and
the main contributor to this happiness is
said to be a magic washing machine. The
machine is allegedly so energy-efficient that
it could run without the power plugged in,
and its service is so thorough that after
washing, it would hang up the clothes to dry.
But the wife isn’t a
believer of miracle, so she keeps praising
her hubby for being an unsound hero, and
feels very happy with her marriage.
Her husband isn’t a man
being more enthusiastic about laundry chore
than any other normal Chinese men, and has
hardly ever done any laundry work. But still
he keeps receiving accolades from his wife,
so he feels very happy with his marriage too.
As for who is the real unsound
hero? The man knows - it’s the wife.
But the wife strongly denies
she has ever made a positive contribution to
the family’s clear wardrobe. It's not that
she wants to be humble. She just wants to be
honest.
So after all who does it? The
doctor knows. It happens that the wife
suffers from a sleepwalking syndrome. Each
time when she gets up from bed in the
midnight, she does only one thing: washing
clothes. Once the job is done she would go
back to lie down beside her hubby and praise
him for his hard work the next day.
A man couldn’t expect to get
a better bargain than this of his marriage,
could he?
