In spring, there were different colourful flowers in my mother's garden. In my childhood memories, the flowers seemed to appear during one night like 36. Until the year I turned ten, my mother shared her secret.
One 37 December morning, my mother dressed me in warm sweaters and we went to the yard. She said, "We are going to 38 some bulbs(鳞茎)."
I pulled out a bulb from a bag and covered my nose right away. "It 39 bad and looks like a rock!" I said.
"These will turn into something beautiful in spring 40 they are not pretty now. We won't know for sure unless 41 come out in the warm seasons."
We planted the bulbs and covered them with earth. When we finished working, our hands were 42 and dirty, but the garden looked just the same as it was before.
My mother and I looked after them very 43 and watched them grow all through the winter months.
One 44 morning, beautiful flowers filled the garden. "Our hard work made it, Mum! I'll pick some flowers for our 45. I believe our living room will be more beautiful," I said and enjoyed the fruits of my labour(劳动).
But my mother said, "Sorry! It's time to make May Basket Day. We'll pick the flowers and make flower baskets for our neighbours. They're secret gifts. 46 will know the flowers are from us. Flowers are like kindness—they grow brighter when we 47 them."
The next morning, we walked quietly around the neighbourhood. I put the flowers near the neighbours' doors, rang the doorbells, 48 and hid. The neighbours opened the doors and began to smile when they noticed the flowers. All of them were very 49 to get such wonderful May gifts. That brought me great joy as well.
The garden was empty, but my heart was 50. I realised the true magic in my mother's garden wasn't just in the flowers, but in the joy of giving. Mother's secret was about sharing kindness.
