Daily life [Zhongyingmei]

Chapter 18 A New Meaning of Existence

God bless--

Although Captain America didn't believe this, but thanks to God, he finally managed to roast the huge beef ribs.

Roasted fragrant, a large piece of beef ribs sizzling near the iron plate, served with a few baked potatoes as big as Benny's two fists, a small pile of boiled soft and delicious Saltwater peas, a variety of vegetable salads, Thousand Island dressing and freshly ground, and finally topped with black pepper sauce.

"...Wow." Benny stared at the huge iron plate on the dining table dumbfounded.

His peach blossom eyes were wide open in astonishment, completely shocked by all this.

This is... a holiday meal like no other Benny has ever seen! !

"Do you want to drink only bone marrow now, Mr. Benedict?" Steve came over with two knives and forks, and asked the boy jokingly.

"Hmph." Benny snorted back to him disdainfully, raised his chin, walked over reservedly and sat down at the dining table.The upswing is cute, but the little boy himself doesn't think so.

"Pray——I heard that those high-class people are like this before eating, today's big meal is enough to be worthy of 'pray', um, what should I do?" Benny raised his fork before starting For a second, I suddenly thought of this question.

He put down the knife and fork, a rare embarrassment appeared on his small face, and he quickly covered it up, clutching the corner of his clothes with his fingers helplessly, thinking hard.

"Don't worry about that, Benny." Steve sat on the other side of the table, looked at him and said gently, "There's only a veteran and his boy here, do whatever you want, it's your dinner."

The blond man emphasized "you" and put his hands next to the knife and fork, waiting for Benny's next move.

"..." Benny obviously couldn't bear it anymore, he gave Steve a weird look, and said fiercely, "Don't talk like that, Mr. Rogers, you are disgusting."

This is too tender, and Benny is more suitable for the silent Mr. Rogers on the desert island.He was a little flustered, and even began to seriously consider whether he had made a mistake in not being so estranged from Mr. Rogers.

Steve shrugged his shoulders, looked at the little boy opposite with a smile in his blue eyes and began to eat without table manners.

He also lowered his head, took a piece of baked potato from his plate, and slowly cut it into small pieces with a knife.Steve's long eyelashes drooped down, and the shadows faintly passed through the eyelashes and fell on the bottom of his eyes, making the blond man feel a little lonely at this moment.

… He never regretted his decision to accept Benny as his ward a few weeks ago.

Benny is a kid who is in the same situation as him, or even worse than him.Taking care of such a child, Steve rarely has time to be confused and anxious during these few weeks, thinking about his loneliness and the meaning of existence.

He was forced to completely stay away from his negative emotions, because he had to rack his brains to take care of Benny's daily life and emotions. Steve never knew that children could be so self-willed before.After saying something too much, the helpless look of blushing again and being unable to say an apology is also cute.

Benny has a bad temper and a lot of problems, but Steve can understand, because they share the same disease.

The helplessness of being drowned in boundless ignorance, not knowing why one exists, the loneliness of being abandoned by the whole world.People who have not had this experience can't feel it just by listening to the narrative.He was a grown man, but Benny was still a child.

but--

Steve can never go back to his 70 years ago, but maybe Benny can have a better ending?Steve couldn't tell what he was putting into the little boy in his day-to-day care.There was only one thing he was sure of.

Benny cheered him up.

Steve raised his gaze again, and saw the child's bulging cheeks, and the top of his shaggy hair was shaking. There was a strand of curly dark brown hair dangling in front of his forehead. Benny looked up impatiently. I tried to squeeze the cheek muscles to push it away, but my hands were still busy holding the meat on the plate, and I didn't care about the strand of hair at all.

Steve chuckled, and didn't bother with the lock of hair, just continued to watch Benny eating with interest.

Well, he can wait for Benny to go to sleep, and then try today's learning results - use the ironing machine to iron Benny's clothes, and then preview for a while.

Benny is so smart and learns everything so quickly, Steve has a sense of urgency, he doesn't want to be left behind.The relationship between the two of them was already embarrassing for him.

The night passed quickly.

When Agent Romanov came to the door the next morning, Steve was surprised to find that Benny hadn't woken up yet.The little boy has never had the habit of staying in bed, and he is not like a child in this respect. What happened today? Are you sick?

Steve was a little more worried. He had to go to the door of the boy's bedroom for the first time in history and knocked on the door: "Benny? Are you still sleeping?"

"...Wait a minute, I'll get up right away." Ten seconds later, the little boy's dazed voice came from the room. His reaction was very slow and his voice was soft, which was absolutely abnormal.

"I'm coming in?" Steve decisively decided to push the door open. He was worried to see Benny lying on the children's bed with sleepy eyes. sweater.

Steve bent down silently, and put the back of his hand on the boy's forehead to test the temperature.It's strange, it's not hot.

"What time did you go to bed last night, Benny?" Steve's mind ruled out those possibilities, and finally only this last question remained.

Benny paused suspiciously for a while, then sullenly replied in a low voice, "Five o'clock, Mr. Rogers."

He looked so obedient inexplicably, as if he knew in his guilty conscience that he had done something wrong.

"..." Steve crossed his arms, and for a moment didn't know whether to tell the boy that staying up late was bad, or whether he should first ask the boy if he knew that Natasha would come to class this morning.

"It doesn't matter." Benny said quickly. As soon as he saw the blond man frowning and folded his arms in front of his chest after holding his breath, he knew that the guardian should lecture him.Benny cleared his throat, and sat under the quilt solemnly as an example, "I'm fine, it won't affect today's class, I just need to sleep for a few more hours in the afternoon. Einstein only slept for three hours a day. I'm far worse than him."

"Benny..." Steve relaxed his eyebrows and looked at the little boy helplessly, "Do you have something to do if you don't sleep?"

He noticed the notebook on the bedside table. It was originally used by Benny to write exercises and remember points yesterday, but now it is densely packed with words.Judging by the thickness, Benny did not sleep all night.

"Well...uh, I just like to review." Benny added dryly when he saw the blond man's gaze.

Of course he didn't like any review.

Doing the same thing over and over again is absolutely the worst thing, he likes novelty, excitement and creation.But the culprit who kept Benny up all night was that damned Tony Stark!

He really didn't want to see the dream again, and finally fell asleep after struggling until five o'clock. Fortunately, it seemed that because he slept too much, there was no Stark in this dream, and he had a good night's sleep .

From the moment he was woken up by Mr. Rogers, Benny regained his sanity, and he made the ultimate decision-stay up late every day from now on! !

"Okay." After Benny earnestly assured him several times, Steve returned to the living room to find Natasha, who had been left by him, and started today's study in 10 minutes.

As he said, Benny did not affect today's study in the slightest, but the price was that he slept soundly all afternoon and was not woken up by Steve until late in the evening.

"Hey, Mr. Benedict—" Steve woke up Benny after he went out to buy groceries today. He sat by the boy's bed and cleared his throat. He took out a brochure from his pocket and shook it. Akira asked confidently, "Tomorrow I want to take you to the playground for a day. I wonder if you're interested?"

Benny's caramel-colored eyes lit up instantly, and all sleepiness disappeared.

Of course he is interested!He has never been to an amusement park since he was so old! !

"What time do we go? What time do I need to get up? Do I have to bring anything? A backpack?" Benny sat up and hurled a barrage of questions at the guardian.

"Bring yourself, the time of departure depends on when you get up, Benny." Immediately afterwards, Steve raised a finger and stated his bottom line firmly, "Go after a full sleep, you should Make a good memory for yourself instead of thinking back to the day when you were sleepy every moment, right?"

"...Okay!" Benny struggled with himself in his heart. He only had to make a choice for half a second before resolutely surrendering to the playground.

Seeing Tony Stark in the dream would not lose a piece of meat, but he was mentally attacked all night, which is tolerable in front of "going to the playground"!

As if in the blink of an eye, the enthusiastic Benny was carrying a backpack and stood at the gate of the playground with Steve Rogers.

The screams of children and the laughter and fights of adults continued to flow inside, and tourists and vendors queuing up to enter crowded together behind the big iron gate.

Benny took a breath, raised his face cautiously, and stared at his target—the roller coaster in the amusement park that stands high in the air and can be seen by people, and the recent screams came from it.

"Would you like some raspberry ice cream?" After Steve took Benny into the gate of the amusement park, he quickly saw a snack. Thinking about how he was living on these on a desert island not long ago, Steve brought Benny asked in a nostalgic tone.

But why do young people like to eat out of season?This kind of weather is about to enter winter and there are so many people buying ice cream.It's not like the one he bought on the roadside last time, but it's packed in a round cardboard box with red and white vertical stripes. It's just a small bucket, and the weight is amazing, but Steve saw the young man holding this on the roadside Not a lot.

"I'll eat it later." Benny looked at the small red and purple fruit, and couldn't say no to it. He raised a hand expectantly and pointed directly at the roller coaster, revealing a hint of something he didn't realize in his tone. Eager, "—Mr. Rogers, let's go to that first!"

Steve readily agreed.

Sure enough, at this time, Benny looks more like a child. This is one of Steve's goals. He always feels that Benny is too mature-then there is only one problem left, he is taller than an eight-year-old Benny, whose average height is much lower, how to send him on the roller coaster?

The author has something to say: Tony (angry and frightened): ...I didn't expect you to be such Luo Dadun!Put my son down for me! !Put it down, immediately!Did you hear me? !

Benny: ...Did you forget that I can magically attach myself to it?

...

Mr. Hai (sharing experiences): I have something to say now!

Downey: —Shut up! (broken sound again). .
