Although they toasted each table and left immediately after, not wasting too much time, there were still many tables to visit, so by the time she came back, everyone had almost finished eating.
There were young men at their table who ate a lot, so when Xia Jin came back, he saw that the plates on the table were almost empty and there was nothing left.
Fortunately, Gu Jingmo and Brother Xia were there, and they served her food in her bowl early on. They put whatever they thought was delicious into her bowl, including meat and vegetables.
There was a full bowl. Looking at the dishes they had picked out, Xia Jin sat in his seat with a happy smile on his face.
Looking at the full bowl of food, all the bad emotions seemed to disappear. Xia Jin sat in his seat and happily ate the food in his bowl.
While eating, I listened to those who had finished eating chatting. Of course, the people at their table finished eating because they didn't drink alcohol. The people at other tables didn't finish so quickly.
They were all drinking one glass after another. It was not time to eat yet, but some people's faces were already flushed, looking half drunk, but still drinking.
However, most of the people who came today were from the village. It didn’t matter if they were drunk. It was close to home, so it was convenient to ask their family members to pick them up or take them back.
They finally had this opportunity to drink with everyone, so of course they just had fun as long as they didn't cause any trouble.
If they were really drunk and were throwing things around and hitting others, they wouldn't just let it go like that. They would definitely make them pay for it later.
"You were at Auntie's table just now. What happened? Why did you waste so much time? My brother and I were watching over there. You guys were there for quite a while, and Grandpa didn't look well either."
Xia Jin swallowed the food in his mouth and said helplessly:
"What could be wrong? They asked me to help her grandchildren find jobs. They didn't even think about what her beating her grandchildren had to do with me."
"I didn't help them, and they used our relationship to threaten me. It's really ridiculous. What kind of family relationship can there be between us?"
"I haven't seen them for so many years. If they hadn't come up to me today, I wouldn't even recognize them if we were walking on the street. How dare they use family affection to kidnap me."
"If her child was really capable, he would have found a good job without me. Since her own child has no ability, why is he begging in that tone?"
After hearing what she said, Xia Yanbing immediately stood up and wanted to settle the score with her. However, Xia Jin stopped him and said, "Looking at him,
"What are you going to do? Today is a happy day for everyone. Don't make it awkward for everyone and don't ruin the party."
"If there's anything, let's talk about it when we get home. Didn't you see Grandpa? He didn't make a big fuss with them. He just said a few harmless words and let it go."
Xia Yanbing was pulled by his sister to sit on the bench and said angrily:
"I'm just so angry. How did they treat us when you weren't found? They ignored us, and now that we've become prosperous, they're coming after us again."
"How dare he use a relative to kidnap you? Is there any family affection between us? Why doesn't he think about how he treated us before?"
"I'm telling you, you can't just agree to their request because you're soft-hearted. We'd rather help a dog on the street than help their two families."
Xia Jin looked at his angry expression and thought that his two aunts seemed to have really gone too far, otherwise how could they have made his second brother so angry.
I've been with him for so long, but this is the first time I've seen him this angry. Never before, no matter what happened, he's never been this angry.
But think about it, sometimes it’s the attitude or the different treatment that makes people angry, and sometimes their eyes really make you feel humiliated.
They are so blind to others' shortcomings that they hurt their self-esteem, as if they are incompetent and useless, like ants in their eyes.
Obviously, their family is not that good, but they always act superior, which really makes people dislike their second brother. Maybe that's what they are thinking.
After all, they are still young people. If they meet someone who looks down on them, they will definitely get angry.
It would be fine if they were really much better off than him, but their family was not that good. They were almost the same as his family, just a little richer.
But they were just visiting relatives at the time, and they didn't ask to borrow money or anything else. It was just because the two families were relatives during the New Year, so they went to visit them.
No matter what, there is no need to insult others like that, as if they were some dirty thing. If Xia Jin encountered this kind of thing, she would hold a grudge against it for the rest of her life.
Xia Jin looked at his angry second brother and said soothingly, "Okay, I know, I'm not prepared to help them. Let's leave it to Grandpa and the others and see what Grandpa says."
"Why are you so angry? What did they do to you before? That was in the past. Do they still dare to do that to you now?"
"It feels good to see them grovelling in front of you, doesn't it? Compared to how they grovelled and insulted you before, it feels even better, doesn't it?"
"Don't be angry. You will get better and better in the future. People of your generation in their family will probably never be able to catch up with you in this lifetime."
"Our two families have completely switched places. You don't have to be angry. I'm not a soft-hearted person. I know who is good to our family."
Brother Xia looked at his younger brothers and sisters, sighed, and said:
"Xia Jin, don't blame your second brother for being angry. You didn't see their attitude before. Not to mention your second brother who is so young and impetuous, even someone like me feels uncomfortable watching it."
"They looked at us like beggars, but what had we done wrong? We were visiting their family and brought gifts."
"They treated us like that. Your second brother went there once and never again. That time he almost got into a fight with their family."
"He's just angry. He treated our family like this back then, and now he's using our family ties to hold us hostage. How can such a thing be justified in this world?"
"Don't worry about this matter. Just leave it to Grandpa and the others. Grandpa will definitely not agree to their unreasonable demands. After all, no matter how soft-hearted Grandpa and the others are, they will not remain indifferent to the insults they suffered before."
