Instead of having to fiercely insist “bu yao daizi!” in attempts to avoid having anything I purchase wrapped individually in plastic bags, shopkeepers were asking me whether or not I “needed” a bag—and replying with a “xiexie” when my response was negative.
En vez de tener que insistir una y otra vez con un "bu yao daizi!" para evitar que todas mis compras acabasen en bolsas de plástico, las cajeras no paraban de preguntar si "necesitaba" una bolsa. Además, me contestaban "xiexie" cuando contestaba que no.
