InlifeWe often encounter some unfair situations, especially in transactions, some merchants may give us less goods. For those of us who are kind and soft-hearted, many times we will choose to tolerate and be unwilling to fight for our own rights and interests. Today, I also encountered such a situation, but this time, I decided to make a ruthless woman for 1 yuan.

This big market is a place I frequent, and I am Xi to go to the farmers who grow their own vegetables to buy vegetables. Every time I buy groceries, I don't care too much about the quantity, I believe they will give me a fair **. But today's situation is different from usual, and I am uneasy by the desertion of the big market and the scarcity of stalls. There are very few shoppers, and the stall owners are struggling to make ends meet. I understand their hard work.

Today, I'm here just to hang out and get ready to buy some food to go home. I walked through booth after stall and watched the numbers on the label keep changing. Pork16 yuan a catty, I chose a one worth 10 yuan. Baby spinach1.5 yuan a catty, I bought 1$3. Chinese cabbage3 cents a pound, I took out 3$8. Sweet potato1.8 yuan a catty, I paid 7 yuan. Salted radish melon seeds are 3 yuan a catty, and I took 6 yuan. Finally, I saw the stall on itCauliflower, 1 yuan a catty.

I wasn't going to buy it, but the old man with the hat told me that these were the last few and that I would be able to go home when I sold out. His words aroused my sympathy, and I decided to buy what he had leftCauliflower。I asked him to pretend, and he **31 yuan, I confirmed again, and he firmly said it was 3 yuan. I paid $3 with my phone. Unexpectedly, when I returned home to use an electronic scale,CauliflowerThe weight ratio should be less than 6 taels, only 24 pounds.

This is him using a deviation scale, 2 taels less per catty, which may only be the difference of 2 cents, but if he sells a few catties more, he can earn more. Some people may say, is it worth going to someone for such a small amount of money?But I don't think we can be patient and indisputable, and the reason why the vegetable sellers dare to give us a few more dollars less is because they take advantage of the consumer's fear of getting into trouble with them. I decided to go to him and fight for myself.

I came to the stall of the old man in the line hat, who was busy loading food for the next customer. I stood quietly and waited for his attention. Finally, when he was done with the work at hand, he looked back at me and couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"."I didn't speak, I just willCauliflowerIt was handed to him. He looked at me puzzled and took itCauliflowerThen he said, "Two pieces of five." I held out three fingers, and he immediately understood what I meant, took five cents out of his money bag and handed it to me.

He smiled awkwardly. I know that the stall owners who often sell vegetables will never forget these little things, they all have the ability to remember them, which is the wisdom they have accumulated over the years. In this big bazaar, there are all kinds of high and low.

I deeply understand the hard work of vegetable vendors, and their business is the most difficult. FreshVegetablesWhen you come, you have to sell it immediately, otherwise you will lose moisture and become difficult to sell. If the leaves are dry, it will be difficult to attract customers even if they are sold at a reduced price. Their margins are very thinlifeThe hardships can be imagined. I understand that sometimes the actions of the little people can have their own problems. However, this does not mean that we should turn a blind eye to unfair trade and infringement of rights. As consumers, we should be brave enough to fight for our rights, and at the same time, we should understand the difficulties of vegetable sellers. Only in such a balance,Socialin order to be more just and harmonious.

This experience taught me that it's not worth hurting others for a little money, but you can't be patient and indisputable. In the face of unfair transactions, we should not be held back by the psychology of consumers, but should be brave enough to fight for our own rights. At the same time, we also need to understand the hardships and hardships of vegetable vendors, and seek a balance of mutual understanding and respect. It is only in this balance that we can build a more just and harmonious oneSocial。Hope in the futurelifeI was able to maintain this philosophy and become a person who had the courage to fight for my own rights and also care for others.
