During Those Years When I Was A Marvel Superhero: Children’s Day of superheroes
Manhattan Chinatown, MR-LI restaurant. Although the time had reached ten o'clock in the evening, the reception work for the restaurant's dinner had been completed, and the last wave of guests had also left ten minutes ago. But the back kitchen of the whole restaurant is still very busy.
Not only to complete the finale of the day, but also to prepare for an important holiday. That is the Dragon Boat Festival.
Most Chinese attach great importance to traditional festivals. Although some people do not understand the meaning behind each festival, at least on the surface. Because various festivals in China are related to many delicious foods. Most people who like food will remember it.
Like the Dragon Boat Festival, in fact many third-generation Chinese immigrants in the United States have no idea what the Dragon Boat Festival means. But many elders in the family will come to Chinatown to buy dumplings on this day.
The dumplings served at the MR-LI restaurant are very famous in Chinatown in Manhattan. Because Chef Wang, the chef of the restaurant, inherits Zhejiang and is himself a Chaozhou native, he is very researchful about Jiaxing pork dumplings.
At the same time, because Chaozhou is close to Fujian, it belongs to the intersection of Guangdong and Fujian culture. He has also studied Guangdong Cantonese Steamed Rice Dumpling and Fujian Quanzhou Big Meat Rice Dumpling.
So the dumplings of MR-LI are very good. It is even better than many well-known rice dumplings in mainland China. It is also common for many Chinese who come to New York for the Dragon Boat Festival to eat rice dumplings from the MR-LI family and then buy more boxes to bring home.
So every time the Dragon Boat Festival sells out dumplings in the restaurant, it happens almost every year. At this time of the year, people in the whole restaurant come to help make dumplings, even the small workers who play the lottery.
This year ’s task is even more difficult, because in addition to the number of Zongzi to complete. Li Jie, the small boss of the restaurant, asked to make 700 more dumplings on the original basis. He needed to give it away.
This makes the restaurant more busy. However, although Li Jie gave the order, he didn't wait for everyone to do it. Instead, he also got his own bag and speeded up. So no one complains.
Li Jie is going to make more than 700 dumplings. Of course it is impossible to eat it by yourself, but to give it away. Relatives and friends at home do not need him to manage, grandfather Li Rong will take care of it.
But Li Jie himself still has friends. Especially as a Night Traveler's identity, I have made friends all over the world. These are all human relations! Such things as human relations pay most attention to courtesy and reciprocity. In order to maintain the relationship between everyone, some necessary things need to be done. Seven hundred dumplings he didn't know was enough to be humane.
He prepared many kinds of dumplings. Including candied dates, red beans, bean paste, salted egg yolk fresh meat, dried pork belly pork, mushrooms, marinated eggs, prawns, braised pork, abalone, sea cucumber and other dumplings with different flavors.
It took one night to work overtime and simmer it in the restaurant ’s professional-grade pressure cooker. Fortunately, it was sent out at the Dragon Boat Festival the next day.
………………
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Li Jie, as the owner of his Marvel Comics company, drove his own dumplings that broke Ford's New York.
Stark Industrial Building.
"What is this thing called?" Tony looked at the rice dumplings wrapped in green rice dumplings in disgust.
"Zongzi, a traditional Chinese food. I think you and Taipei can try it." Li Jie sent Toni and Paipei about five dumplings, considering that they might not be used to it, so he didn't give more.
Zongzi steamed from the best dumpling leaves exudes a fragrance. Pei Bo likes this flavor. She said, "Can you try it now?"
Li Jie helped Tony and Pebble strip two dumplings and said, "Of course!"
He chose Pei Bai a candied zongzi with a relatively fragrant and light taste, because Pei Bai has always been a light food idea. Rice dumplings that are too oily are not her dishes.
And Tony is a heavy-duty braised dumpling of shiitake mushrooms, eggs, shrimps, and scallops. Well, Tony, who was recently shunned by the platinum tube, is very satisfied. He has n’t eaten this heavy-tasting and meaty food for a long time. Recently, he eats oil and vinegar salad every day. Rabbit.
When the two were eating dumplings, Li Jie greeted Tony: "Today May 30th, June 1st is International Children ’s Day, I want to have an event. I hope you can participate as Iron Man's . "
Now Tony has authorized the copyright of Iron Man's to Marvel Company, so it is understandable for him to attend the activities arranged by the company.
"What activity?" Tony asked as he gnawed the meat dumplings, the look of glutinous rice with gravy on his beard was a little indecent.
"Naturally it's about children. I will send you a PPT later. Let's go!" Li Jie left Stark Group with words, and he still has a lot of dumplings to send.
Osborn Group at a distance of three streets from Stark Group.
Harry and Peter also received the dumplings from Li Jie, and they got more. Because in the past few years, they have been more like the dumplings of Li Jie family.
Without the advice of Li Jie, the little green devil and the little spider skillfully find their favorite taste and start eating. The little spider likes the taste of abalone and sea cucumber, and the little green devil likes the taste of bean paste.
When eating dumplings, Li Jie also mentioned to Peter about the activities on June 1st. He said that he would definitely participate if there were no problems.
In the base of the night watchman.
Li Jie brought more than 50 dumplings here. Apart from Zeng Chu, the others at the base could not understand what this stuff was.
"Is this food?" Mike said suspiciously, touching his beard.
"It should be food." Big dad said with a beard.
"It must be food," Frank the Punisher said firmly, stroking his beard.
"You guys are bothered! Eat if you want!" Mindi was very upset about the old men's grind. She has already picked up a dumpling and handed it to Barbara (the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent that was secretly assigned by Nick Fury and reached an agreement with Frank.), And also got one for herself. She did not pick any taste.
Because it ’s almost Children ’s Day, and it ’s Mindy ’s age, it ’s still possible to celebrate this festival, so Li Jie asked, “What gift do you want the next day?”
"Well, a butterfly knife made of Adamantium is best to use seven inches long, double-sided or single-sided. It can be decorated with crocodile leather in the position of the handle." Ming Di directly said what she wanted.
Okay, this is not a gift for girls of this grade. Li Jie was a little entangled whether to give it to Mindy.
In Canada.
As the editor-in-chief of Marvel, Li Jie contacted the professor, let Blink come to New York, and took the dumplings back.
The Wolverine Logan was curious about these things. Li Jie let the flashing message come back. It was food, and also demonstrated how to eat. But before Logan waited for the flash to show how to eat these things, he bit down.
Zongzi was swallowed together with the zongzi, he said while chewing: "Why is the skin of this thing so hard? Is it because he failed?"
Uh ..., flashing some tangled whether to tell Logan, in fact, no one eats dumplings. But looking at how Logan didn't care, the blinking also decided that she didn't need to worry about Logan's stomach. After all, the Wolverine shouldn't matter, as long as he was happy.
Aegis Bureau.
Li Jie is not qualified to enter here, but he commissioned Captain Rogers to bring the dumplings in. After all, the copyright of Captain Rogers is in his hands now, and he is also his own client.
Captain Rogers was a little surprised that Li Jie sent dumplings to avengers for the Dragon Boat Festival, but he was also very happy to accept it.
When Captain Rogers came in with a lot of dumplings in the lounge of avengers, the first thing that smelled was the iron fist. Tiequan, who has practiced in Kunlun, China for 20 years, is very familiar with this taste.
"Zongzi? Captain, do you also have the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival?" Tekken Daniel was a little surprised.
"No, this is from Jason. It is the editor-in-chief of Marvel. This is a holiday gift for avengers." Captain Rogers put fifty dumplings on the long table for the players to use.
After the fist plucked a dumpling away, the magical man Luke Cage came together and said, "It smells good."
"It's really good." Tekken is very familiar with the taste of dumplings. In fact, because he grew up in Kunlun, he is more accustomed to eating Chinese food than American food.
"It's much better than the dumplings I made from Xiaoliu in Kunlun."
vampire hunter Blade also took a dumpling and asked, "Who is Xiao Liu?"
"Chef, graduated from New Oriental, the highest school of Chinese chefs. He is the youngest super chef in Chinese history. He once learned to cook in a hotel in Guangdong. He emerged from a dim sum contest in Guangzhou. He is best at Sichuan cuisine. His mother ran a state-run restaurant in Sichuan, and the restaurant called Juju came. I forgot. The Mapo tofu he made was delicious! But he was not good at making dumplings. "Tie Quan briefly said Xiao Liu's legendary experience .
Captain Rogers clapped his hands and said: "Everyone, the day after tomorrow is Children's Day. Jason hopes that we can participate in some activities organized by Marvel Company, mainly for children."
No one disputes this proposal.
Kamar-Taj.
Through the New York Temple, Li Jie sent directly here, and also brought the most dumplings here. Because considering the number of Kamar-Taj spiritual masters, even one person per dumpling will have hundreds.
Li Jie found a large cardboard box directly from the back kitchen and put a large snakeskin bag to bring hundreds of dumplings to Kamar-Taj.
In the surprised eyes of Sorcerer Ancient One, he took the dumplings out and said to Gu Yi: "Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival!"
"Hahaha!" Gu Yi hasn't been so happy for a long time, although it's just dumplings. He asked Wang to move the dumplings to the kitchen, and eat them at Kamar-Taj at noon today.
"Oh, by the way, there is a small box inside for the Asgard's Rocky. You may need to trouble Sorcerer Ancient One. You run." Li Jie said while Gu Yi was in a good mood.
"Oh? Why did you want to send dumplings to Asgard?" Gu Yi looked at Li Jie with a smile.
"It's not strange that Litoo! Rocky gave me a thunder knife!" Li Jie said that he is a simple child, and the idea is very simple.
Gu Yi smiled and said nothing, but then he did communicate that Odin opened the Rainbow Bridge, and he went to Asgard to send the dumplings.
"Zongzi? What is this?" Odin and Guyi have known each other for many years. The two have had a good relationship and have given many gifts to each other, but this is the first time such a thing is food.
"This is a gift from Li Jie who helped to discipline Thor, the dumplings made by their family. I tasted it and tasted good." Gu said to Odin.
"This pile is for Luo Ji."
Odin watched his old friend wink, but Gu Yi pretended not to see it. After he had finished speaking, he turned and left. Odin summoned the Valkyrie Valkyrie to take these dumplings to the front and give them to Luo Ji.
The front of the elven kingdom.
"Can such an ugly thing also be a gift?" Luo Ji dislikes the plain dumplings very much. Think about it, she is the second favorite princess of Asgard that even gold wool is used as a rug, and the artifact is used as a regular dress. She really couldn't look down on the dumplings.
However, Valkyrie still said: "This was sent by the mortal nightwalker. What special food is it? After all, I was bothered to send Sorcerer Ancient One across the Rainbow Bridge. And I ate one before, and the taste is not bad. "
Luo Ji shook his head helplessly and said: "Then leave one. The rest will be shared with other Wushen people. Presumably they haven't eaten it yet."
Valkyrie led away. Luo Ji looked at a lone dumpling left on the table and smiled silently. Then she walked to the map again, she still has a lot of things to do!

June 1st, International Children's Day. This day is a festival for children all over the world. No matter where you are, children should be happy this day.
Children in Santa Maria Hospital should also be like this. This is a professional children's leukemia hospital. Leukemia is not terminally ill. It can be cured by finding a suitable bone marrow. But some people can't find the right one if they are unlucky.
Most children who have leukemia have lost their vitality because of the pain that prevents them from running and playing.
Most of the time, they are not as lively and playful as ordinary children. But today, all children are staring out of the window, and some children are constantly asking the nurses or parents around them, "Is Iron Man here?"
Yes, this is one of the activities arranged by Li Jie today.
When all the children were eagerly awaiting, Tony Stark walked in and pushed away from the ward in a suit. He smiled and said, "Happy holidays to the children!"
He prepared candy and pastries and various toys and comic books for all the children, but the children were still disappointed. Everyone wants to watch Iron Man, not Tony Stark.
Children will not hide their feelings, they write their disappointment directly on their faces.
Adults are not. After all, as a top wealthy person in the world, it is already very good to be able to take the time to participate in this kind of activity.
Tony sees the disappointed expressions of the children and knows exactly what they are for. After receiving Li Jie's PPT, he didn't sleep for two nights and worked overtime to get rid of some special {toys}.
He whispered softly: "Jarvis."
The words just fell, and a special team of Iron Man armor flew into the house from the balcony outside the window. They are very small and completely different from the armor of adults, this is a team of children [Iron Man Armor].
"I know what you are expecting! Children!" Although Tony is tired, he has a smile on his face: "You want to see Iron Man, but instead of watching Iron Man, how about you becoming Iron Man yourself!" /
When Tony speaks, those children ’s version Iron Man Armor has opened the hatch, showing a state of waiting for driving. The already excited children burst into a strong cheer.

This is a story in a manga, the general content is the various difficulties encountered by Tekken in practice, and then overcome the story. Luke Cage painted an ugly makeup to disguise the villain boss.

It has attracted many children to become audiences. Spider-Man is really a super-age idol of all ages.

At Erranta Girls ’School, in addition to bringing festive sweets to the girls, the avenger member Bai Hu also taught the children some simple self-defense techniques and self-protection awareness.
The United States is the hardest hit by minor sexual assault, especially young female assault cases. Baihu used the advantages of her women to give various explanations and self-protection to the girls.
Then there is a little anecdote among the Avengers, which makes the girls feel very good.
…………
Blade went to another school. He participated in a school's June 1 event. Although he didn't want to talk super cool, the children were still very happy.
Because sometimes this cool image is also very attractive.
…………
Captain Rogers is the busiest, Li Jie arranged quite a few activities for him. Whether it's a speech, a performance, or something else. He needs to go to various schools and children ’s organizations to make publicity.
At the same time, I have to go to a special school for problem teenagers to give a speech.
Even with Captain Rogers's super strength, he felt a little tired running down today.
As the organizer of the event, Marvel editor Jason Li will always be at the scene. He handed a bottle of Gatorade to Captain Rogers, who looked tired, and said, "Is it okay?"
"Actually, I feel pretty good ~ IndoMTL.com ~ Captain Rogers took a big sip of a sports drink." Your idea is good. In fact, it has brought us closer to our children and the people. "
Li Jie smiled: "I do n’t want this to be just an image engineering captain. This may be a long-term job in the future. The world is indifferent and lacks role models. We need to set an example for this world. Because this is what The true meaning of heroes! "
"Not how many villains have been defeated, not how many times the earth has been saved. Instead, it serves as a lighthouse when everyone loses their direction, pointing out the direction for everyone in the dark." Li Jie's words made Captain Rogers listen.
"No matter how rugged the road ahead is, we must continue with firm conviction and unrepentance. Become a sword to break through the darkness, become a beacon in the mist. This is much harder than killing several villains Now. "
Rogers echoed the sentence: "Yeah, it's much harder."
"But after all, some people still have to do these things, otherwise why does the world need heroes?" Li Jie looked at Captain Rogers with a smile on his lips.
This sentence makes Captain Rogers full of energy again, yeah, this world needs such a hero!
