The programmer and his woman

Xiaoxia came back from the interview today, her face was filled with unconcealed joy. She walked gently in front of me, with a mysterious smile on her lips, as if hiding some secrets.

I touched my chin curiously and looked at her carefully, trying to find some clues from her expression. Her eyes were shining with excitement, and she was obviously in a good mood.

"You look so happy. Let me guess, did you pass the interview?" I asked tentatively.

After hearing this, Xiaoxia laughed so hard that she seemed to have hit the nail on the head. "Well, congratulations, you guessed it right. I can start working at this company next Monday!" she announced excitedly.

Although I had always hoped that she would be successful in the interview, I was still a little surprised when I heard the news. After all, Xiaoxia had no relevant work experience, and it was really incredible that she was able to successfully apply for this job.

"Did you really get the job? Is it for a secretary job?" I asked curiously.

Xiaoxia nodded confidently and replied, "Yes, it's secretarial work."

I was even more confused and couldn't help asking, "You don't have any work experience in this area, so why does your boss dare to hire you? Isn't he afraid that you won't be able to do a good job?"

Xiaoxia tapped her head, smiled playfully and said, "Yeah, I didn't expect that either. But the boss asked me a question before he left."

"Oh? What did he ask you?" I asked curiously.

Xiaoxia blinked and said mysteriously: "He asked me, do you know why I hired you?"

I became even more curious and asked quickly, "So what did you answer?"

Xiaoxia smiled playfully and said proudly: "Haha, I said, because I am beautiful!"

I shook my head helplessly and said with a smile, "You are really narcissistic. What does your boss say?"

Xiaoxia pouted, as if she was dissatisfied with her boss for not praising her narcissistic beauty. "He didn't say anything, just smiled and left."

I was also thinking about the deep meaning of my boss's words at this time, and I couldn't help but look Xiaoxia up and down and asked, "Is this what you are wearing for the interview today?"

Xiaoxia looked down at her clothes in confusion, then looked up at me and replied, "Yes, what's wrong?"

I frowned and said, "This dress looks a bit casual. Why don't you change into something more formal?"

Xiaoxia spread her hands and said helplessly, "I don't have any other clothes. The other clothes are all dirty and need to be washed. I threw them all in the basin."

I couldn't help but laugh after hearing this and joked, "You are wearing something so sexy today, could it be that your boss is attracted to you?"

Xiaoxia also laughed after hearing this and said, "Really? I don't think so. Do you think I'm sexy now?"

I nodded seriously and said, "Yes, look at you now, you are so curvy, you are just like a little devil."

Xiaoxia couldn't stop laughing after hearing this, as if she was amused by my compliment. "Haha, it's a pity that there is no mirror in the room, I can't see it myself." She added with a smile.

It seemed that my flattery was very effective for her, as she began to take off her clothes one by one. I stared at her with wide eyes, my heart full of doubts and confusion.

"Xiao Xia, what's wrong with you? I just praised your figure, you don't have to take off all your clothes, right?" I tried to defuse the sudden embarrassment with a humorous tone.

She looked up at me, with a naughty smile on her lips, "Don't just stand there like an idiot, take off your clothes."

I was stunned. I didn't expect her to say that. "Huh? What? Are you always so direct now?"

She glared at me and said, "Just your head." She smiled and pointed to the closet, "Hand me the nightgown in there. Hurry up. There's no one in the bathroom right now. I need to go do the laundry."

It suddenly dawned on me that she was planning to do laundry. I breathed a sigh of relief, smiled helplessly, got up, went to the closet and got a nightgown and handed it to her. Then she asked me, "Please help me check the basin under the bed to see if there is any more laundry to do."

I bent down and examined it carefully. "There are two pairs of your underwear in this basin." I looked up and said embarrassedly.

She nodded, "Yes, give it to me, and give me the basin next to it as well."

I picked up another basin and found the stockings she had changed into. "Here." I poured the stockings and underwear into the same basin and prepared to hand them to her.

She quickly stopped me and said, "Hey, don't put them together. Underwear and socks should be washed separately. Just give me both basins."

I realized my negligence and quickly separated the two basins and handed them to her. Looking at the two large basins of clothes in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh, "Can you wash so many clothes? Let me help you wash them."

She thought about it and nodded, "Okay, then how about you wash my underwear and socks and I wash your clothes?"

When I heard about this division of labor, I immediately became happy and said, "Great! I fully support this."

Seeing how happy I was, she smiled too, "From now on, I'll wash the clothes, and you'll wash the underwear and socks. That's how it's happily decided."

I nodded without hesitation and agreed, "Okay, okay, no problem. But it will be hard for my wife."

She waved her hands, "It's okay, it's okay, I won't argue with you."

After that, she began to urge me, "Then hurry up and change your clothes, take these two basins, and go to the bathroom with me to wash clothes. Remember to wash your underwear first and then your socks, and wash them separately in these two different basins. I'll go over first, you come quickly."

"Oh, okay," I responded, feeling a little excited and nervous.

I happily took the two basins and walked towards the small bathroom. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xiaoxia was about to turn around and leave.

"Hey, Xiaoxia, where are you going? I brought the laundry detergent for you." I stopped her and said.

She said softly, "Oh, I'm done. You just need to pour some detergent into the washing machine. Remember, you have to wash the two basins separately, and you have to wash them by hand. You wash them here, and I'll go back to my room and read a novel for a while."

I was a little confused by her words. A washing machine? There was actually a washing machine in this room? I stood there in a daze, listening to the humming of the machine behind the door. I couldn't describe my feelings at that moment. I smiled helplessly and muttered to myself, "I just made an agreement with her, but now I'm at a big loss. I wonder why she agreed so readily just now."

After washing for a while, I realized that I had always washed my own underwear before, and it felt relatively easy, probably because my underwear was dark in color, and it was hard to tell whether it was clean or not. But Xiaoxia's underwear was light in color, especially the white one. I had to work hard and rub it for a long time before I could barely wash it back to white. But those pantyhose were surprisingly easy to wash. The soaked pantyhose felt soft and smooth in my hands, and it felt quite comfortable.

After washing, I walked back to the house with the basin. Xiaoxia saw my frustrated look and burst out laughing. She smiled and asked, "Don't you know there is a washing machine in this room?" I nodded awkwardly. She laughed and said, "What an idiot, come here, let me check whether the underwear is clean or not?"

I walked over and handed her the basin. She carefully checked it and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, not bad, you washed it really clean, cleaner than I wash it myself. You've worked so hard, husband. I've decided that you will wash my underwear for me from now on."

When I heard this, I quickly waved my hands and said, "Hey, it's not up to you to decide. I haven't agreed yet."

I saw her blinking mischievously, then put on a very serious look and said: "Who is this guy who just vowed to be fully responsible for washing underwear and socks from now on?" Faced with her questioning, I had to make a face at her helplessly.

She laughed happily when she saw me, and patted my shoulder gently while laughing: "Oh, my dear husband, let's hang the clothes out to dry later, and I will go with you to buy a rice cooker."

After hanging the clothes, we went to the mall to buy rice cookers. Xiaoxia really showed her rigor and seriousness to the extreme this time! She turned a small matter like choosing a rice cooker into a rigorous inspection.

When we arrived at the rice cooker sales area, we were dazzled by the dazzling array of rice cookers in front of us. The prices ranged from more than fifty to more than two hundred yuan. I turned to Xiaoxia and asked, "Which one should we buy?"

Xiaoxia took a quick look and said to me, "Let's ask the salesperson what the differences are between these rice cookers of different prices and ask her to introduce them to us."

We looked around for a salesperson and finally found a young salesperson in a corner. He looked about our age, but when he saw Xiaoxia, his eyes could not help but stay on her chest, swallowing his saliva from time to time, and ignored Xiaoxia's questions.

Xiaoxia was a little unhappy and raised her voice again and asked: "Excuse me, are you the salesperson here?"

At this time, the salesperson came back to his senses and stammered, "Oh, yes, beautiful lady, do you want to buy steamed buns?"

Xiao Xia was stunned when she heard this: "What? Buy steamed buns? Aren't you selling rice cookers?"

The salesperson waved his hands quickly: "Oh, yes, yes, yes, hi, I am confused."

"What are you confused about?" Xiaoxia asked.

"Look at steamed buns, no. Sorry, I'm a little nervous. You two want to buy an electric rice cooker to steam steamed buns, right?" the salesperson stuttered.

Xiaoxia frowned and asked impatiently, "Can you also steam buns in this pot?"

The salesman scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Oh, what's wrong with me? I'm only thinking about steamed buns. You two want to buy an electric rice cooker to steam rice, right?" He finally gave the correct answer.

Xiaoxia nodded, then pointed to two rice cookers of different prices and asked, "We don't know what the difference is between the rice cookers of different prices here. Can you introduce them to us?"

The salesperson took a deep breath and began to introduce: "Okay, the one in front of you that costs over a hundred is a CNC multifunctional one. It can cook porridge, soup, steam rice, and set a timer. This one that costs over fifty is a mechanical one that can only steam rice."

Xiaoxia nodded and asked, "Oh, what about the one that costs more than 200 yuan?"

The salesperson scratched his head and hesitantly said, "This one that costs more than 200 yuan is also CNC multi-functional, but compared with the one that costs more than 100 yuan... um... the size and power are different."

"What's the difference?" Xiaoxia asked.

The salesperson stammered, "This one is five liters, enough for eight people to eat; the one that costs over a hundred is three liters, enough for two people. But don't underestimate the five-liter one because it has a larger capacity. It uses less electricity than the three-liter one. I suggest you buy the more expensive one. If you use it for a few more years, you can save on electricity bills."

Xiaoxia frowned after hearing this, and was obviously not satisfied with the answer. She continued to ask: "Really? Then what is the power of this 200-plus-yuan machine?"

The salesman was speechless and stammered. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I really don't know the power."

Xiaoxia continued to ask: "How dare you tell me that you can save the electricity bill in a few years if you don't know?"

The salesperson said with embarrassment: "I just know that this expensive one saves more electricity than the cheaper one, but I don't know how much it can save."

After hearing this, Xiaoxia's face darkened and she said angrily, "How can you sell your products here if you don't know anything about them?"
