My mother saves money so much

I just read an article written by a friend about parents. I was very touched!

My mother is in her early 70s. Although she is not a true farmer, because my grandfather made an inexplicable mistake, my grandmother, grandfather and her whole family returned to the countryside to become farmers.

In that era, it became a typical family that was criticized.

Her teenage years were very difficult. When I started writing articles, I posted an article called A Mother Ruined by Emotions.

She has never had a good life. As she gets older, we don’t treat her well. I feel that she is not very lovable and does not need others to treat her well. She wouldn't listen to anything she said. A stubborn bull (like a cow). If you buy things and be filial to her, she won't scold you to death! But if you give her cash, she won’t scold you!

Except that I am not afraid of her scolding, others are too lazy to pay attention to her. I fought with her. If you say you don’t want to buy it, then you won’t buy it. I will buy it anyway.

I spend my own money. Besides, I am not a spendthrift, nor am I a spendthrift. What I buy is what I must buy for normal use. She couldn't care less. Make her so angry! I really don’t need the money to buy things.

Every time I go back, I have to "fight" with her!

There is a lot of garbage at home. If I don't throw it away, we are not allowed to throw it away!

She has never bought more clothes in her life! Because she picks up clothes not only from us, but also from other people!

She is tall, and she never wants to buy anything to wear underneath! She basically wears what we have left, so what she wears doesn’t have any obvious features! It’s understandable that there is a celebrity lady who just likes to wear her son’s clothes. ! Saving money is great!

I remember wearing a lot of clothes on her for more than 40 years, as long as I can remember, and I still see them on her every year when I go home. >

I don’t ask her much now, I know what kind of clothes she has without even looking at them! Because she hasn’t added any of them

Many years ago, she was very small! I once asked her about the origin of those floral clothes: they were made by a tailor when I was a baby. The quality is really good and they are not broken even now. It should mean the same thing whether they are made of cotton or cotton.

At that time, I didn’t think that the clothes were unattractive. For example, clothes with big flower heads and double-breasted clothes, and big red flower quilt covers and sheets were very popular in those days. Everyone wore similar clothes.

According to her. Said, there are even 50 (it used to be said that I had it before I was born, so the time is now) years, but I haven’t seen her wearing it for more than 50 years, I don’t know. Where is she hiding?

She also said that she would take away the clothes at home (including scarves from 40 years ago, the ones with gold stripes from the 1970s, which were very beautiful at that time) How do you use it now? Tell me! I guess no one has seen it now, and it’s no longer seen on the stage. I don’t know what year it will take to use it as a rag.) Go to the countryside - her parents' house.

I advised her not to do anything stupid. It would be weird if she didn't laugh out loud!

Our hometown is very wealthy, and all the girls and women are doing well outside, and every family has a car. Who in the countryside is uglier than you now?

The reason is that I am determined to tidy up the house. I donated the clothes that the children don’t want and they still look good. After all, some of the children’s clothes have not been worn yet. Why, because it is difficult. After washing, she didn’t want the children to wear them, so they turned out to be classics.

I started in my daughter’s room and found a bunch of small, old ones that I wanted to throw away. Arrange them nicely.

My daughter’s clothes are all piled up in a mess, and there is no way to fold them. It is impossible to find them at ordinary times. Some of the clothes made of materials cannot be piled up like that. They are all deformed. They can be flattened after being washed. .

Needless to say, this habit of putting things out of order has been deeply passed down to the children!

In addition to my daughter, my family also has my brother’s (who goes back once a month) and my sister’s (who lives long-term). Their two daughters, one*** and two girls, live with their grandparents. In my house.

But she didn’t allow me to throw it away, and I didn’t know where she hid it! Anyway, the house is piled up, and there are piles of garbage everywhere! Later I gave up the struggle.

I said I would sell this house after my daughter passed the exam - to scare her.

The purpose is to throw away the rags and make it look like a place where one can live!

That’s why the above thing happened. She was so anxious that she couldn’t sleep at night. What to do with the many old clothes? ? So she wants to send her old clothes to the countryside, hahahaha.

I think I said that and she still gave it away. She was really stupid. Whatever she wanted, but I told her that the next time you go there, observe their clothes first and ask questions. , only bring it if they want it. If they don’t want it, don’t waste your energy.

Ghosts are almost the same!

I still have my grandpa’s military uniform that is over 100 years old! Still in the closet now! Who is she always thinking about dressing well? Hahaha!

More than 40 years ago, a friend of hers gave her a nylon shirt (I don’t know the material, is it nylon or nylon?). She still wears it now. It doesn’t say how many bacteria there are, but it keeps warm. Sex has no value anymore.

It’s so hard that it pulls through. It probably hasn’t shrunk after so many years, but it’s deformed and loses its shape. The collar is deformed. But the quality was pretty good back then. Unlike the current quality, it is normal for the shape to change over the years!

She refused to throw it away. I said that the sweaters we threw back were as many as we wanted, and they were all new. Not to mention how good they were, at least they were better than hers. We don't want to wear them anymore because they are out of date. We know she can save money, so we keep the old clothes (who still has old ones nowadays, they only wear them a few times and don't like them!) and bring them back. She can wear them, too. You can make shoes or something!

My mother likes to make her own slippers. She makes them all in the house in my hometown. They all follow the same pattern and I don’t think they are ugly.

Of course I don’t want it. I buy everything here from supermarkets or online. I dislike what she makes as outdated! !

I'm too embarrassed to use those shoes in my house!

In my memory, I have bought her coat three times in the past 20 years, all of which were bought by me. She also scolded me for 20 years. She said she would scold me as soon as she thought about it!

The first good dress I bought for her 15 years ago. It’s a Bosideng down jacket priced at over 700, navy blue.

I wanted to go home and bring her some clothes for the Chinese New Year that year. Every time I saw her wearing ugly clothes, I felt uncomfortable. How do you think I would bring her as a guest?

People will not say anything about her, they will only say that the children are ignorant.

They say all children are promising, so why are the old people dressed like beggars, right?

She heard that it was more than 700, but she just wouldn’t wear it. She said that I wasted money and that she didn’t need it. She had work clothes issued by her father’s employer!

When I go out to be a guest, I still wear work clothes. They are old and the color is not good-looking! Why!

She kept putting the down jacket in the closet while sleeping, but she refused to wear it. It was her size! No one else can wear it!

Once she was in a car accident, I went home to see her and stayed with her for a few days. Then on the day she left, my sister told me to buy some clothes for my mother, hoping that she would wear them when she was discharged from the hospital for good luck!

I went to buy more than 500 autumn clothes! Then I greeted them and said I bought this dress for 30! I didn’t get angry afterwards! Being only 30 is no big deal! hehe!

She wears this dress all the time, and I see her wearing it every Chinese New Year! The color is camel and it’s quite fashionable. You can never tell whether it’s new or old, which is great! It's suitable for her, but it's not a winter coat. It's cold when she goes out! I wonder how she would dress as a guest now?

The year before last, I took her to my mother-in-law’s house in the countryside for a wedding reception. She still wore work clothes—later she wore the work clothes of my brother and sister-in-law. It's a little more fashionable, but you can't wear it. It doesn't matter if you make it home clothes. Why should you be a little more particular about it when you go out?

My brother asked her if she wanted to buy a pair of shoes this morning. She said no, but she couldn't find the shoes when she went out. After searching for a long time (I couldn't find it in my house, and I went to her old house to find nothing suitable), I got the broken sneakers. I don't know if they belong to any child in the family, or if she picked them up? I can't hit her, and I can't talk about her in front of everyone, right? I was very angry. I remember she only had two pairs of leather shoes in winter. I guess she bought a few pairs more than 20 years ago (30 years?) and never bought them again.

Remember, it’s not that we don’t buy it for her, it’s that she doesn’t want it. Whoever buys it will be unlucky!

Walking in the community, I get angry when I see her nondescript dressing! I said you are like this, how embarrassing it is for us, I have no shame, how can my husband make fun of you in his heart, will he make fun of someone in this family? What about us?

My husband is pretty good at their place, and there are only a few who are better than us. This is not bragging! Not to mention among his brothers and sisters, we are the best! They used to follow us, but later they went out independently!

She was so angry that she wanted to go home and stop being a guest. Later, my sister told me and took her away.

After I went to the countryside, I saw that all the people (countryside people like to dress up more than city people now. Think about it.) were all beautifully dressed.

She sat at the table inside and didn’t dare to move! Later I said, "I won't go out." It meant that I wouldn't say hello to others, so as not to embarrass me. You said that if you don't go out, how can they let you go? She is my mother. Everyone should give me face and greet her. I don't know if she is uncomfortable or not, and I don't know if she can understand what I felt when I was a child! It will be said below.

I feel uncomfortable, hey, it’s not that I don’t buy it for her, it’s that I don’t want to be angry: Don’t you usually say you have clothes? Whoever buys them will be scolded! I see how embarrassed you are? At the critical moment, it looks like this again, hey!

There is also a cotton-padded jacket! I remember one time during the Chinese New Year, we were discussing whose home we were going to visit during the Spring Festival, and we were also having wedding wine. Then she told me that we should go buy a coat! OK! It’s rare! She finally realized she had nothing to wear!

But I never bought it again! real! These clothes are more than 10 years old and can no longer be worn, so the quality of the clothes now is not good! However, who can wear a piece of clothing for 5 years now? Raise your hand and let me see!

So I took her to the supermarket!

She picked left and right, and finally bought one that cost more than 100! OK, as long as you are happy! Go away those expensive ones, hahahaha!

From now on, she will scold me whenever I say I want to buy her clothes! I said I would buy it for you without any money from you or dad. No, I won’t wear it even if I buy it!

The shoes are so stiff that I don’t even know if they fit or not!

Sometimes she goes downstairs to buy groceries. Whenever she sees someone throwing away clothes or shoes downstairs, she will take them back to see if they are suitable for her. I don’t even bother to say, as long as you are happy, She doesn't bother to look at the clothes we give her, and it's fine if she likes other people's clothes, it doesn't cost anything.

Our community is full of wealthy people. When we moved in, my father said that our family was the poorest here! Hahaha!

Hey, sometimes I think, it’s okay for my mother to be like this. Unlike other brothers and sisters who fight openly and secretly every time about what to buy for their parents, we don’t have to worry about anything. For his birthday, we siblings discussed buying him a ring and earrings. I said don't buy it because she wouldn't be happy if she bought it, so why bother? Yes or no?

Follow her, so that everyone can worry less. She is not pretending to be unhappy, she is really unhappy! I’m not happy to see everyone wasting money! What is waste? I wonder if she understands it?

My mother has naturally curly hair. Her current hairdresser is my father. My father has been cutting her hair for decades. Practice makes perfect. It doesn’t matter. She probably doesn’t have curly hair. What technical content. Dad, just take care of it. It also saves time and money. Now you can get 20 plus for any haircut. It’s still expensive during the Chinese New Year.

My mother doesn’t want clothes for herself and my father is not allowed to buy them! We are not allowed to buy them for our children.

That was impossible, so I kept buying them for my daughter and sending them to her!

Her daughter is in her senior year of high school next to her. It is impossible for her to dress in the same way as we did when we were young!

My vision cannot keep up with my children’s vision. Sometimes, I tell my daughter, brother, you buy it and mom will pay for it, as long as you like it! Don't buy indiscriminately.

My daughter doesn’t waste anything, and I actually buy less for her. She said her mother-in-law was unhappy, and then I told her, blame it on me, because my mother-in-law is afraid of me, hahahaha.

Through the description of my mother, you can imagine what our clothes looked like when we were children! Fortunately, we were born in the 1970s, and everyone was not as snobbish as we are now!

My "clothes" should be the last among my classmates, because they are all work clothes issued by my father's factory! Others wear them too, but I wear them more and longer! Until I graduate from high school!

I remember a girl who was a sophomore in high school, sitting in front of me in the summer, with two long braids, fair and clean, wearing a different skirt every day, fit and beautiful. I have a good relationship with her, and I like to see her wearing colorful clothes every day! Love chatting with her!

I remember in high school, my mother once bought me a nylon (possibly dragon) zippered sweatshirt. The color was navy blue with red and white interspersed in the middle. It was stain-resistant. ah.

Finally I can stop wearing work clothes! There is a school uniform, but no one else wears a school uniform. I can’t wear a school uniform every day. It’s very conspicuous!

But you can’t wear it for a semester, right? My classmate said, can you change into something nicer?

So after school at noon, I went back and told my mother that my classmates told me to wear this every day! It means buy me one. But it’s hard to get it. I know my mother, you can’t get it at all!

As a girl of my age, when I was in middle school, I bought my own clothes and coats no more than ten times. I still chose the cheapest ones because of the values ????of family education. As long as they are new, hey.

So my mother found me a floral cloth dress made by a tailor when I was in the first year of junior high school.

No one said anything about what to wear when I was in the first year of junior high school, because everyone dressed like that! At that time, I still wore cloth shoes with plastic soles made by my mother.

But I’m in high school, and I said no classmates wear this anymore. My mother scolded me for not studying hard and only caring about clothes.

I can only treat a dead horse as a doctor, wear it once and see! Bite the bullet and wear it to school.

When I walked into the campus in the afternoon, I felt that my blood pressure was ridiculously high that day. My face was always burning. Understand! I didn't even bother to go to class that afternoon. I didn't even go out to use the bathroom after class. It felt like there were nails under my butt and I couldn't move!

I took it off when I got home at night and threw it away. I told my mother that I would never wear this shirt again. Even if the nylon shirt was torn, it would be better than this one! So I continued to wear nylon shirts! My father has said that he should buy some nice clothes for his children. They are already so old, but my mother is only at that level. What nice clothes can she buy?

I still have a lot of fabrics at home. When we had no clothes, I really hoped that these fabrics could be used to make a few clothes, but she was reluctant to part with them. Well, I finally got over it and I had money to buy flowers by myself. She once said that she still had a lot of fabrics at home. I laughed at her and said, keep them for the fire! And I don’t need a fire at home!
