Seeing him like this, Dajia quickly got out of the car to help him get his things.
Xia Yanbing and the others took the packages from him one by one and held them in their hands. After everyone had two packages in their hands, he finally looked relieved.
Originally, several people had empty hands, but in an instant, their hands were full. Even so, Brother Xia was carrying a bag on his back and holding three bags in his hands.
The two bags Xia Jin was holding were very light. Xia Jin guessed that they were for trying on clothes or something, but she didn't know what the others were filled with.
Looking at this, if you don’t know, you would think that they are bringing goods from the south to sell here. After all, what kind of good family would buy so many things back at once?
No family can afford such a thing. Xia Jin thought that it was a good thing that her elder brother earned a high salary, otherwise it would be really difficult to spend.
They piled all their things in a corner of the car, trying not to let them take up space, after all, they would have to add one more person to the car when they go back.
Everyone was very happy that Brother Xia was back, but Uncle Xia had been grinning from ear to ear since he saw him.
"It's over, it's over. What kind of life are you leading over there? Go home and ask your mom to make you a good meal so you can replenish your energy."
"I'm sure you'll be plump and healthy this year. Don't worry about eating and drinking over there. Use all the money you earn to buy things for us. Think more about yourself."
"Your body is the capital of revolution. You must take good care of yourself before you can continue to work. Otherwise, if your body collapses before you can earn money, what's the point of earning money?"
Xia Jin looked at his elder brother, whose figure had not changed much. He couldn't tell how his elder brother had lost weight.
It's just a little darker than usual, maybe because I've been running outside these days. The ultraviolet rays there are a little more toxic than in the north.
He is a little darker than when he left home, but you really can't tell that he is thinner.
During the first two years after I went there, I did lose weight every time I went home. It was mainly because I was exhausted from work during those two years, and I had just arrived there and was not used to the food.
I have become thinner now, but I have been feeling much better in the past two years, and things in the factory are developing in an orderly manner.
That is to say, a branch factory is being built this year, so he is a little busy, but it is also much better than the previous years.
Moreover, after staying there for a few years, they have become accustomed to the food there. Not to mention that Xia Jin also found a chef for them who cooks northern dishes.
In the first two years, since most of the factory employees were from the south, there was no need to bother hiring a northern chef.
But in the past two years, more and more people from the north have gone there to work, and he was worried that they would not be able to get used to the local food, so he found a northern chef for the factory.
In this way, everyone can eat food from any region they want without having to worry about it, and there will be no reason for northerners to not be used to the food.
So although Brother Xia was a little tired, he was in good health. After all, the meals at the factory were good with both meat and vegetables.
He might even eat better than when he was at home, so to say that he has lost weight is pure nonsense.
Xia Jin also knew that it was because his eldest brother was away, and his uncle was just concerned about him. Because he cared about his son, he looked unwell everywhere and looked thinner.
After hearing what his father said, Xia Yanbing said in disbelief:
"Dad, take a good look at me. Where can you tell that my eldest brother has lost weight? He looked like this during the summer vacation, and he still looks like this now."
"If you say he's black, I believe him, but if you say he's lost weight, isn't that nonsense? Where did he lose weight?"
As soon as he said this, Xia Jin held his forehead helplessly. Why was his second brother so good at the factory, but couldn't read people's expressions when he got home?
He is such a smooth person in the city, but he acts like an idiot at home. No wonder his aunt scolds him all day long.
He is the kind of person who always ruins the atmosphere. How could anyone not be angry when seeing him like that? You say two people are chatting happily, but you have to butt in.
Just keep talking, why say such unpleasant things? Your father is worried and feeling sorry for his son, and you have to interrupt him.
"Go away, do you have the right to speak? I'm talking to your elder brother, don't interrupt."
"Your eldest brother is alone in Guangdong Province. He can't eat or sleep well. Of course he's lost weight. You can still tell."
Xia Yanbing failed to speak and was scolded instead. He sat in the car helplessly, pursing his lips in displeasure.
After hearing what his father said, Xia Yanjun said helplessly:
"Dad, how can I be thin? I eat very well in the restaurant. Every meal has meat and vegetables. And the chef is from the north, so there is nothing I can't get used to."
"I weighed myself yesterday, and my weight is exactly the same as before. I've been tired these past few days, but I've been eating well."
"You don't have to think about making delicious food for me all day with my mom. I don't lack anything. It's enough for us to be together as a family. There's no need to be so tired."
"Humph, I wouldn't dare say that. If you want to say it, just tell him yourself."
Because he had just returned, everyone was talking about him. In order to give Uncle Xia more time to spend with him, Father Xia consciously went to the front to drive the car.
The place they went to eat was still a state-owned restaurant. They didn't come to the county often and didn't know which one was good, so they chose the state-owned one to be safe.
After all, no matter how bad they taste, they can't be that bad, so you can feel at ease coming here.
They were worried about leaving the luggage in the car, even though they could see it from the house, but by the time they came out of the house, the people had already taken away all the stuff and ran away.
So the group carried their things, big and small, into the house and put them under the table. Fortunately, their table was high and could hold a lot of things.
But after putting the things there, the space becomes smaller, and it is easy to bump into these things when moving around.
But fortunately, no one minds. After all, this is the situation. Otherwise, there is no other good solution. We can't just leave this thing outside.
Except for Xia Jin, everyone else could eat, so they ordered six dishes. Xia's father and the other two were thinking about Xia Yanjun, who had suffered a lot along the way, so they ordered meat dishes.
After ordering the dishes, Father Xia thought that they had been outside in the cold wind for so long, so he ordered another soup. He told them to drink some hot soup first, otherwise they would have stomachache sooner or later when they got home.
