Be kind!

 I can’t ease the pain . I felt very sorry . I think I am hardhearted .

This morning, after work I drove my e-bike to the market to buy some materials for cooking lunch. I didn’t get off my bike when I told the vendor I wanted two tomatoes . Her tomatoes looked so red and beautiful .She chose two , put them in a plastic bag and tied the mouth of the bag . It cost 1.5 yuan .Now I feel shameful to tell this story . I gave her the money . I opened the bag and found one of them had a bad spot . I couldn’t understand her at that moment . I didn’t feel comfortable . “Change it“ I said. “It can be eaten . There is nothing wrong with it ” “No , I want another one ” She changed one for me . I checked it again . The skin was broken . “Why didn’t  you give me a good one , since you have so many good and nice tomatoes?” “Change it again” ”There’s nothing wrong. It’s OK.” At that moment , I might lose my head . I thought she treated me as a fool . I trusted her and asked her to choose for me .But she wasn’t worth it . That was my thought at that moment .

On my way home and when I was cooking  , I thought of my elder sister . She grows pears . She loves her pears and cherishes them .She always eats small or flawed pears . She knows customers won’t want this kind of pears . I thought of the tomatoes I refused . In fact , they can be eaten , although they may not stay long . But I should understand the vendor and speak to her kindly . Maybe she didn’t do that on purpose. Life is not easy for her .

Next time , I will go on to buy her goods to show I still trust her .

aha,my friend, you are a kind person.to those hard small seller, i always think them not easy to live, so i always made the same mistake as yours. maybe we have too kind simple thoughts. but another thoughts, what about it ? only too small money, really worth of to quarrel about till a truth  or false? possible gone,let it gone. merely often pay more money,haha..

Yes , humans like me sometimes look a bit silly . There is really no need to care too much about such little things. I mean I shouldn't be too hard to the seller .
