A Pleasant Surprise
A friend of mine had been wanting new kitchen cabinets for a long time,but her husband insisted they were an extravagance.She went to visit her mother for two weeks,and when she returned,she was overjoyed to find that beautiful new cabinets had been installed.
A few days later a neighbor came over to visit my friend.After admiring the new cabinets,the neighbor added,"All of us were so glad that the fire your husband had while you were gone was confined to the kitchen."
我朋友有很长一段时间一直想在厨房添置一些厨柜,但她丈夫坚持说这是铺张浪费.她去娘家过了两周,回到家来,发现厨房里新添置了漂亮的厨柜,这令她喜出望外.
几天后,邻居来拜访我朋友.欣赏了新厨柜后,邻居说：“你不在家的时候,你丈夫弄失了火.我们都深感庆幸只是厨房遭了殃.”
