Last night, a vendor went across my house and she asked me to buy some fruits for her. Because it was late and she wanted to go home with everything sold out, she sold at very cheap price. I bought dozens of mangoes and guavas (4.5kg) with only 45000 VNĐ (about 2$). She said many times "thank you" but I think I should say "thank you" to her first.

Last night, a vendor came to my house and asked me to buy some fruits (from her). Because it was late and she wanted to go home with everything sold, she was selling at very cheap price. I was able to buy dozens of mangoes and guavas (4.5kg) for only 45000 VNĐ (about 2$). She said "thank you" many times but I think I should be the one to say "thank you" to her. She can't "go across" your house. She can "go through" it (entering the front door and leaving by the back door), or she can "go across your property" (which means, for example, walking across your lawn.) Did she knock at your door? If so, I would say she "came to" your house. If she did not knock on your door but merely saw you outdoors, I would say "a vendor passing by my house asked me...".

Last night, a vendor passed by my house and she asked me to buy some fruits from her. Because it was late and she wanted to sell everything before going back home, she proposed to sell her merchandise at a high discount. I bought dozens of mangoes and guavas (4.5 kg) for only 45000 VNĐ (about 2$). She thanked me many times but I think I should have thanked her first.

Last night, a vendor came to/passed in front of my house and she asked me to buy some fruit from her. Because it was late and she wanted to sell everything before she went home, she sold at very cheap price. I bought dozens of mangoes and guavas (4.5kg) for only 45000 VNĐ (about 2$). She said "thank you" many time, but I think I should say "thank you" to her first.
If you buy something FOR someone, you are buying it to give to them. Good job
