He wasgoing to move into an apartment, but at the last moment, my cousin and he saw a new housefor sale, that was close to his business. She helped him buy furniture and a flat screentelevision. He had not watched television for years because of his religion. He was like a kid witha new toy but still grieved horribly for my aunt. 我堂姐游说伯父卖掉那栋他和伯母大概在25年前一起建造的房子。要 离开他俩一起建造的“家”,这对伯父而言非常艰难。他准备搬进一间公寓,不过 就在最后一刻,我堂姐和他看中了一栋待售的新房,而且这房子离伯父的公司很 近。堂姐帮伯父买来了家具和一台平板电视机。由于他的宗教信仰,伯父已经很 多年没有看电视了。他如同一个拿到一件新玩具的孩子那样开心,不过对于伯母 的离去,他还是非常伤心。
