A young couple moved into a new house. The next morning while they were eating breakfast, the young man saw his neighbor hanging the washing outside.
"That laundry is not very clean; she doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better detergent.”
His wife looked on, remaining silent. Every time the neighbor hung her washing out to dry, the young man made the same comments. A month later, the young man was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to his wife, "Look, she’s finally learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this?"
The wife replied, "I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows."
