A woman's ingenious way to dry her clothes on the run has been captured by a internet user in China, surprising and amusing many online. The woman on a bus in Quanzhou in southern China's Fujian province was caught hanging her clothes up to dry on a bar, reports the local news website Haidu.
The photo was taken inside the bus on June 25 and shows four items of clothes hanging from a bar inside the vehicle. A ticket inspector on the bus surnamed Chen said that it was raining on that particular day and a female passenger and her son, who had both been soaked by the rain, began to hang up their wet items of clothing. Chen attempted to stop the woman but she insisted, saying that her child could catch cold otherwise.
Though the majority of netizens have come out in support of the female passenger's actions, others have criticized that it was not acceptable and inconsiderate to other passengers. The bus company said that it does not encourage such behavior as it could tarnish the their reputation.
