Show $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i y_i$ is absolutely convergent

Let $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i$ be absolutely convergent and let $(y_n)$ be a sequence satisying $forall i in mathbb N, exists M in mathbb R$ such that $|y_i| leq M$. Then $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i y_i$ is absolutely convergent.
So $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i$ is absolutely convergent means both $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i$ and $sum_{i=1}^infty |x_i|$ is convergent. And the condition on y indicates y is bounded above.
For the proof, I have this idea: since if some series is convergent/divergent multiplication by a constant such as M does not change the convergence/divergence, I might be able to say that at worst case where $y_i$ is M, $sum_{i=1}^infty x_i y_i$ should have same convergent/divergent property with $x_n$. But I do not know how to show this proof formally.

A series $sum a_i$ is absolutely convergent if $sum |a_i| <infty$. $sum |x_iy_i| leq Msum |x_i| <infty$. So $sum x_iy_i$ is absolutely convergent. This is a complete proof.

A series $sum a_i$ is absolutely convergent if $sum |a_i| <infty$. $sum |x_iy_i| leq Msum |x_i| <infty$. So $sum x_iy_i$ is absolutely convergent. This is a complete proof.
