阅读下面的短文,然后以约30个词概括短文的内容。
     Mother’s Day was coming, a man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away.
     As he got out of his car, he noticed that a young girl was sitting on the curb sobbing (啜泣). He asked her what was wrong with her and s he replied, “I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother. But I only have seventy-five cents, and a rose costs two dollars.”
     The man smiled and said, “Come on in with me. I’ll buy you a rose.”
     After they went in, he bought a rose for the little girl and ordered flowers for his own mother.
As they were leaving, he offered to ride the girl home. She said, “Yes, please! But can you take me to my mother?” “To your mother?” the man was a little puzzled but didn’t say anything. She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave (坟墓).
     The man was shocked and returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bunch of flowers and drove the two hundred miles to his mother’s house.
     After a man was de eply moved by what the girl did, he cancelled the wire order and drove two hundred miles to his mother’s house on Mother’s Day.
