Auntie’s house is full of parcels. She even sleeps on them. That’s so strange!小刚: Yes, Xiaobao. Auntie lives alone and buys lots of things. Sometimes buying too much actually makes her unhappy.小宝: Then why does she buy so much? Isn’t it very expensive?小刚: Auntie said sometimes she spends money to feel happy, and sometimes to avoid others borrowing money from her. Actually, when people live alone, they may feel lonely and keep buying things.小宝: Then what should be done if the house has too many things?小刚: People in the community helped her move out the parcels to make her room cleaner. But if she keeps buying nonstop, it can become an illness, and she needs doctors and others to help her.小宝: I see. What Auntie really needs is the company of friends and family, not just shopping.
