One day, I went to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was a cold day, and the wind was blowing hard.
We got out of our car and walked toward the restaurant. At that moment, a girl and her mother were coming up to us. They asked if we had any spare change (零钱). My mom said yes and asked where they lived. “That old car across the street,” said the girl. “Six of my family live in it.”
My mom said she had something to do, and after handing them a few dollars we said goodbye. Then my mother sent me inside the restaurant with my dad. But she didn’t come in.
About an hour later, my mom came. She said she went home and brought some food and clothes to the girl. I asked why she helped them. She told me that we were lucky but the girl’s family wasn’t so lucky. “Mom really did the right thing,” I thought.
Now I still remember that night. On that night, my mom taught me one of the best lessons I have ever learned. That is to help people in need as much as possible.
