Marvel's Super

Chapter 2 Dinner

evening.

It was already dark outside, and the Qiao family were sitting at the dining table preparing to eat.

Joe's mother, Mary, had prepared dinner.

"I'm going to serve the food." Carol noticed that Joe had been staring at her and she felt guilty and left after saying the next sentence. Now that Qiao was angry, she had done bad things and naturally had to hide from Qiao. Although they were all on the ground at home, she could only hide for a while.

Soon, Carol and Mary had all the food on the table.

After they sat down separately, Mary saw that Joe had not moved the tableware for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Joe? Why don't you eat? I specially made your favorite roast lamb chops today. Is it because you have a bad appetite?"

"I don't really want to eat." Joe replied gloomily. He was heartbroken that someone had taken less than half of his small money, and he had no appetite at all.

"My baby, what's wrong with you?" Mary was very worried when she heard that Joe didn't want to eat, because Joe usually ate a lot, but he suddenly didn't want to eat today, so she thought Joe was sick. "Baby, are you sick? Come on, let me touch your head. Do you have a fever?"

"No, I'm in good health, but I feel bad and can't eat," Joe replied.

"Child, what's wrong with you?" Mary felt that Joe was unusual today. This kind of situation is rare. Joe is usually good and obedient, and in good health, unless... . .

Mary thought of a possibility and looked at John, who was snickering there. Then she understood. "It must have been Carol."

"Carol, what did you do to your brother?" Mary asked.

"I didn't do anything, I just used some of his stuff." Carol replied a little guilty.

"What did you use Joe?" Mary continued.

"I used it, I used it..." Carol was embarrassed to say it.

"She used the money I saved, three dollars. I was lucky enough to save hard, so she used less than half of it." Seeing that Carol didn't say anything, Joe couldn't help it and said it loudly. . Qiao is so angry, this naughty sister is so cheating! Wherever the younger brother spends his money, isn’t it always the older sister who gives the younger brother money? That money is the principal for your future prosperity!

"Did you spend Joe's money?" Mary asked. "Not with my permission." Joe added on the side.

"Mary, you know, Pamir invited me to eat last time, and I will definitely invite him back. Recently, I have no money again, so I just used some of Joe's money." Carol knew that what she did was wrong, and she was very angry. Feeling guilty, he even gestured with his hands, "I just took a little bit, and Joe has a lot more. Besides, I will definitely give it back to Joe."

"I don't believe it," Joe shouted at the side, "Carol borrowed money from me last time and I haven't paid it back yet!" Joe didn't believe it at all. Carol spent money lavishly every day, how could he have the money to pay him back? This time Carol went even further, it was already considered stealing! , he decided to teach this little girl a lesson, otherwise, his little savings would be spent by Carol sooner or later. He still needs money to use as start-up capital in the future! , I am not stingy, I am doing it for the future. If I save more money now, I will have more money in the future! They are all relatives. If she becomes rich in the future, Carol will also be rich! Carol is still young and doesn't understand these principles, but she will know them when she grows up. Joe thought silently in his heart.

"Carol, apologize to Joe!" Mary thought this was not a trivial matter, the money was not much, but Carol's behavior was serious. "You are stealing!" Mary repeated.

"I don't!" Carol was startled by Mary's stern tone, but her temper came back later. "I said I would pay him back!" Carol yelled.

"But you took Joe's money without his consent!" Mary continued. "Your behavior is very wrong"

"I, I," Carol also realized it, but she was saving face and didn't want to apologize to her brother. But it was the first time Mary was so strict, and she was a little anxious, with tears in her eyes.

Seeing that this matter was about to go astray, if she allowed it to continue, even if Carol apologized, she would hate herself to death. Joe felt that he would just give up and said, "Carol, you will pay me back. Yeah"

"Of course, I will pay you back this time. I will deliver newspapers on weekends and earn money to pay you back!" Carol said to Joe angrily. After all, she was still a child. Even though she knew that she had made a mistake, she still couldn't help herself. It was Qiao's fault for being lectured by his mother, so his tone was a little bad.

"You..." Mary was about to say something when she was interrupted by Joe. "Okay, you must pay me back. Let's eat." Seeing that Joe didn't mind anymore, Mary didn't know what to say.

"Wow, Mom, your grilled lamb chops are getting better and better!" Seeing that something was not right in the atmosphere, Qiao came out to cheer up.

"Really? Eat more if you like."

"Okay, I'll take care of the rest!" Joe said loudly.

"I want it too!" Carol was eating there depressedly, but when she saw that Joe wanted to add lamb chops, she was not to be outdone. She also liked Mary's grilled lamb chops, but they couldn't be cheaper, Joe! , Carol thought.

"Okay, I'll give it to you two now!" Mary said softly when she saw that the two children were fine and she felt much happier.

"Ahem!" Seeing that he was being ignored, someone coughed twice. "There's yours too." Mary rolled her eyes at John, then stood up and walked to the kitchen.

After dinner, the family sat on the sofa in the living room and chatted.

"By the way." John seemed to have thought of something. "I'm going to Boston tomorrow. Do you want to go? Joe hasn't been out of town yet. How about taking you out tomorrow?"

"Okay" was Carol's voice.

"Okay" Joe also replied, he also wanted to go out and have a look.

"Then it's settled, I'll take you to see my idol Steve Rogers tomorrow," John laughed.

"It's you who wants to see it yourself!" Mary said while finishing her attack. She doesn't know her husband yet

"This is our Danforth family tradition!" John said. "A tradition that I will inherit!"

"Steve Rogers, Captain America?" Joe thought to himself. He often heard John mention this name. "I didn't expect John to be a comic book fan."

"Dad, shall we go to the amusement park tomorrow?" Carol asked. She had been thinking about it since she went to the amusement park last time. Joe didn't go there last time.

"Go, go," John said with a smile.

"Yeah, that's great." Carol almost jumped up.

They chatted for a while, mainly Carol chattering there, and then went back to their rooms. Before going back to the room, Carol said "I'm sorry" to Joe with a blushing face and ran back to the room.

Lying in bed, Joe had some insomnia. Tomorrow he will go to a city of this era. He doesn't know what the situation is like, but Qiao is looking forward to it. In the future, it will be his first stop to show off his talents.

After thinking for a while, Qiao felt sleepy. He wants to sleep.

"Goodnight" Joe called to Carol's room next to her, which was what Carol had requested. Don’t say no.

"Good night"
