Explanation

To talk about yesterday, we use the past. We ask: What did you do yesterday? We answer: I visited my aunt. I played football. I looked at jewellery. Mum worked at home. In the answer, the verb tells us it was yesterday: visited, played, looked, worked. In the question we use did, and the verb stays the same: What did you do? The word bought means we paid for something: I bought a bracelet.
