A wife is surprised when her usually passive husband suddenly starts doing housework — washing dishes and mopping the floor. Initially suspicious, she later learns that it’s because of something she drunkenly said: she confessed how exhausted she felt coming home from work only to do all the chores alone, wishing someone could share the load. He took her words to heart and decided to help.

Though often clumsy and unintentionally funny — such as counting her coughs when she’s sick, insisting she drinks twelve glasses of water, or baking an ugly but heartfelt lemon cake months after she mentioned craving one — he always shows deep care and attentiveness. During her toughest times, like when her father was hospitalized, he quietly prepared dinners and comforted her, telling her she had done well.

Now, watching him earnestly scrub dishes, she realizes that drunken words are sometimes heard — and answered in silent, loving ways. She hugs him and thanks him, and as they stand together in the kitchen, both know that life will gradually become better.

一个关于婚姻中“小确幸”的故事。女主人的丈夫平时从不做家务，突然开始洗碗、拖地，让她怀疑是不是做错了事。后来丈夫坦白，是因为那天她喝醉后无意间说出了心里话：自己每天下班后又得洗碗、打扫，感到很累，如果有人能一起分担就好了。丈夫听在心里，从那时起便主动做起家务。

虽然他常常做出让人哭笑不得的举动，比如在她感冒时仔细记录咳嗽次数、强行陪诊、提醒她喝足十二杯水，甚至为了她随口说想吃蛋糕的愿望，三个月后做了一个丑陋却充满心意的蛋糕，但这些都体现了他的细心和关怀。她最疲惫、崩溃的时刻，他默默准备好晚餐，安慰她“你已经做得很好了”。

如今，看着丈夫笨拙却认真的洗碗身影，她明白了：醉话并非无人听见，而是有人用自己的方式回应。她轻轻抱住丈夫道谢，两人相拥在厨房的夜色中，心里都明白，生活会一点一点变得更好。
