Let's see how much of this will be lost in translation.

一次本人跟老公逛街,一小女娃上来就抱住老公的脚要他买花,十块一朵玫瑰啊,老公
要面子,跟小孩说我錢给你,花就不要了,小女孩愣了愣,说哥哥你拿着花吧,要不走
前面我弟弟还会叫你买…我那时心情不是一个复杂能表达的…

Once I went out for a walk together with my husband, a young girl clung to the leg of him and wouldn't let go until he buy a flower from her. 10 yuan for one stem of rose. Trying to save face, my husband told her that he would give her money, but she should just keep the flower. The little girl was puzzled for a sec, then she said, "big bro, you take the flower. Otherwise my little brother further down the road will ask you to buy it again." No words could describe how I felt at that moment.
