I'm embarrassed to tell my own story. During the winter vacation of my freshman year, I worked as a waiter in a restaurant near my home for two months. Because it is a fourth-tier city, the salary is really outrageous. The last two months' salary is 5000 yuan.

I want to use this 5000 yuan to buy a laptop, and I want to save some for the living expenses of the new semester. In the end, I can control it freely, but it's only a few hundred dollars.

One day I went to the mall and saw a mango coat on the second floor of the mall. The style is not particularly young, but it is really dignified. It seems that my mother doesn't have any special coat, and she only wears one coat every Spring Festival, which has been worn for many Spring Festival. I hesitated for a long time, looked at the price and finally decided to buy it.

I tore off the price tag before I took the clothes home. Take it home and try it on for my mother. It looks good on her. When she was young, she was actually a girl who loved beauty, but when she became a housewife and mother, she consciously gave up that love of beauty. She wore a coat, looked in the mirror again and again, felt the quality of the coat, weighed it and asked me how much it was.

I told her that it was just a foreign trade list, and it was only a matter of one or two hundred dollars. With a grain of salt, she complained that I was spending money indiscriminately, and she didn't lack a coat to wear, while comparing it with the mirror for a long time.

I also stood in front of the mirror, watching my mother look at her expression in the mirror, feeling very sad and happy.

Later, my sister told me that when she came home for a visit during menstruation, her mother happily took out her coat and said that her daughter bought her a super-good coat. When my uncle visited, she took out her coat and showed it off again.

The first time I worked, the first time I earned money by myself, and the first time I bought clothes for my mother.
