有个小男孩来到一家百货大楼,直奔女性内衣柜台。他害羞地对女售货员说:“母亲节就要到了,我想用送报攒下的钱给妈妈买条衬裙。”
“我们刚进了一批最新款的衬裙,她一定会喜欢的,”女售货员鼓励他说,“你要多大尺寸的?”
“尺寸……”小家伙面露难色,“我不知道。” “没关系。告诉我,你妈妈是高还是矮,是胖还是瘦?”好心的售货员问,“我可以帮你参谋一下。”
“我妈妈很完美。她不胖也不瘦,不高也不矮。”小男孩自豪地回答。
于是,售货员帮他挑了一件34号的衬裙,孩子兴高采烈地回家了。
但后来的故事,售货员就不知道了。二十几年来,那个“完美的妈妈”一直把那条衬裙珍藏在最上一层抽屉里,一次也没有穿过。我就是这个幸福的母亲,我穿52号的衣服。
A little boy walked into a department store, and headed directly to the lady’s underwear1 sec-tion. He asked the sales clerk shyly, “Mother’s day is coming, and I want to buy Mom a slip2. I saved some money delivering3 newspapers.”
“A bunch of new styles just arrived. I’m sure she’ll love it,” the sales lady saidencouragingly, “What size do you want?”
“Size...” the kid looked embarrassed, “I don’t know.”
“That is fine. Tell me, is your mom tall or short, fat or thin?” the kind lady asked. “I can help you decide.”
“My Mom is perfect. She is neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin,” the boy answered proudly.
So, the sales clerk picked a size 34 and the boy went home delighted.
But the sales clerk didn’t know the other part of the story. That perfect mother has kept the slip in the top drawer, but has never put it on for more than twenty years.I’m the happy woman, and I wear size 52.
