Mia grew up in a humble, working-class household. Her parents and grandparents worked tirelessly to provide for the family, always ensuring Mia enjoyed a little luxury when possible.
Her grandmother, Lucia, was the most frugal, owning only two pairs of shoes and carefully planning groceries to avoid waste. As a child, Mia didn’t pay much attention to this and simply enjoyed the delicious meals Lucia prepared.
As she grew older, Mia thought her grandmother was stingy, unable to understand why Lucia lived so modestly. Mia excelled in school and received scholarships to top institutions, mingling with wealthier peers, which made her desire a better life.
After graduating, she fell in love with Mark, a wealthy business executive. Their relationship was filled with luxury, and soon, Mia became dissatisfied with her family’s simple lifestyle.
When planning her wedding, Mia didn’t want to invite her grandmother, fearing Lucia wouldn’t fit in. However, on her wedding day, Mia discovered a hidden note and a chest filled with money her grandmother had saved for her future.
Overcome with guilt, Mia rushed to her grandmother’s house to apologize, inviting her to the wedding. From that day on, Mia cherished their bond, realizing the true value of family and love.
