Mary went straight into the main house and saw the children preparing seriously in the activity room. She greeted the children with a smile, asked where Maria was, and got answers from the children Finally, he left the activity room with a smile and went to the big kitchen to find Maria.

In the large kitchen, Maria was holding a pot and carefully pouring the freshly boiled applesauce into a large ceramic bowl. Mary walked in quietly, stood aside and looked at the fragrant applesauce, unconsciously remembering A nostalgic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth when he remembered that he and Julie came here to steal applesauce at night.

After Maria finished pouring the applesauce, she looked up and saw Mary standing aside staring at the big bowl of applesauce. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Oh, look, who did I see? A little greedy cat!" "

Mary looked up at her, smiled and said, "Anyone who sees your applesauce will become a greedy cat, Aunt Maria."

"That's right, I remember that you and Julie always liked to steal applesauce when you were young, and I caught you more than once!" Maria laughed, "However, you don't need to steal applesauce today, I will give you some applesauce." Take the jar back to eat."

Mary nodded and said, "That's great! If you don't get me a can, I think I might steal some back."

"You child!" Maria shook her head with a smile, took a rag to wipe her hands, turned around and put the pot into the sink, "Today is not Thanksgiving, why are you here?"

"Oh, because I have something to do, it's near here, so I stopped by!" Mary handed her the pot brush, "Also, on behalf of my mother, I would like to say a happy Thanksgiving to you in advance."

Maria turned her head to look at her, nodded and said, "Oh, thank you so much!" She paused, washed the pot in her hand, and said with a comforting face, "Honey, although you haven't told me Your adoptive parents, though, I can tell they've been very nice to you, haven't they?"

Mary hummed, leaned against the sink and said, "Yes, very good."

Maria smiled reassuringly and said, "So, you have to be nice to them too! Oh, can you give me some detergent?"

"I know." Mary replied, picked up the tableware cleaner, opened the lid, and poured it into the pot that Mary was holding.

Maria scrubbed the pan covered with applesauce neatly, and said, "By the way, dear, are you going to leave later? Or are you going to help me?"

Mary hesitated, then said, "I might have to go soon."

Maria nodded nonchalantly, and said, "Well, okay, then wait a moment!" She put down the half-washed pan, dried her hands in a hurry, and walked to the cupboard.

Mary glanced at Maria, then at the pot she had washed halfway, rolled up her sleeves and picked up the pot to continue cleaning.

Maria took out a glass jar, scooped up applesauce into it with a spoon, and said, "I'll put a jar of applesauce for you first, so I won't forget it when I get busy!"

Mary smiled, and said a little embarrassedly: "It feels like I'm here to get applesauce!"

"To be honest, today is just making applesauce, otherwise, I would not be so generous! You know I made these applesauces specially for Thanksgiving." Maria filled the applesauce by the spoonful, "Yes Now, honey, do you want to bring Julie a can too?"

Mary was taken aback, looked down at the pot in her hand, and said, "No, no need, I don't know when I can meet her, let her take it by herself next time!"

Maria filled the glass jar, nodded, and said, "That's fine, applesauce won't taste good after a long time!"

Mary smiled.

Maria patted the glass jar and said, "Okay, are these enough?"

Mary looked back, nodded gratefully, and said, "Enough!"

Maria put down the spoon and said, "That's good!"

Mary cleaned the pot quickly, turned off the tap, and kept her gaze on the glass jar full of applesauce for a few seconds. She raised her eyes and looked at Maria who was walking towards her. She smiled and said, "I'll clean the pot for you." Cleaned up!"

Maria said approvingly: "Really? That's great!" She reached out to take the pot that Mary had washed, wiped it with a cloth, put it on the stove, and put a basket beside it that had been peeled and cut into pieces. Poured a piece of apple into the pot, then looked at Mary, and said, "It's lunch time soon, do you want to eat here before leaving?"

Mary shook her head and said with a wry smile, "Actually, I have to go now!"

Maria took the glass jar filled with applesauce and put it in a fabric bag, handed it over, and said, "Well, take it, don't forget it!"

"I will never forget it!" Mary wiped her hands and took the bag.

Maria patted Mary's hand lightly, smiled kindly, and said, "Come early tomorrow, dear."

Mary nodded and said, "I know, Aunt Maria, don't worry, I will come to help very early. But today..." She still had to inquire about Captain America's whereabouts, and she couldn't calmly help .

Maria let go of her hand, waved it and said, "Okay, okay, go get busy! I have enough people today."

Mary was taken aback for a moment, thinking that she was doing this to reassure herself to leave, she didn't say anything, she just smiled, said goodbye to her with a jar of applesauce, and left the kitchen.

As she passed the activity room, she heard a little boy say seriously, "I bet that's Captain America!"

But his words drew ridicule from the other kids, and one kid said loudly, "Come on! We all know that Captain America is a wanted man now! He must be hiding!"

Mary glanced inside and saw a little boy blushing and said, "He is! He is! Come on, I won't argue with you about this, I promised him to keep it a secret!"

As a result, all the children inside burst out laughing.

Mary shook her head, thinking that she was really a little nervous because she was looking for Captain America. When she heard the words Captain America, she immediately became nervous. It was just a child's talk. Thinking this way, She walked towards the door of the house.

When Mary came in just now, the two doors of the main house were both open. At this time, some naughty child closed half of the door. She was too lazy to push the closed half door, so she was absent-mindedly holding the apple. Jiang walked towards the half-open side. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a man walked in quickly outside. Mary was startled, and immediately stopped, looked up, and suddenly opened her eyes wide.

I must be dreaming, right?Mary looked suspiciously at the tall man wearing a peaked cap in front of her, and then looked at another man wearing a peaked cap behind him. Both of them walked in one after the other with shopping bags in their hands. They simultaneously Looking at Mary, it was obvious that, just as Mary recognized the two in front of her, they also recognized her.

Bucky, who was walking behind, stood side by side with Steven, staring at the gray girl in front of him, even though she had changed clothes and put on a hat that must have covered most of her face, he still recognized her It was the girl who claimed to be a fan of Captain America. He frowned slightly and asked coldly, "Are you following us?"

Steven turned his head and glanced at him, with a look of disapproval in his eyes.

Mary took a step back subconsciously, instead of answering Bucky's question, she looked at Steven and said, "Why are you here?"

Her question caused Steven and Bucky to frown at the same time, because this question was also what they wanted to ask.
