"What do you mean by that?" Tony looked at Li Jie and Rogers very unpleasantly. The two of them shook their heads instantaneously at Tony's gaze.

Li Jie whispered: "Isn't it really an oolong? Last time you said that Pei Bai was pregnant, but in the end it was fake news." Is it really certain now?"

Tony pouted: "Last time it was an accident, pregnancy tests are sometimes inaccurate." This time, I built a machine to do a full body examination of Peppard, and it was confirmed that she did not have any problems and was indeed pregnant. So my wedding with her will be a little earlier. I won't send out invitations, so you can come over directly. ”

Tony had actually received a marriage certificate with Pepp, but the ceremony had not yet taken place as a wedding. Because compared to going to the civil affairs agency to make a simple thing like a certificate. Planning a wedding is much more complicated. Tony, in particular, wanted to make a wedding big enough to be worthy of Pepp. Then there are a lot of resources that need to be used before and after.

The wedding should be luxurious and grand enough. But at the same time, it is necessary to meet the requirements of low profile. Because thinking with the big toe knows how many people's attention Tony's wedding will get. Especially the news paparazzi, they are like vultures smelling carrion.

Tony is high-profile on many things, but that doesn't mean he likes to be interfered with in his private life. Especially about such extremely personal matters as marriage and family. And Peppard doesn't want his wedding to be followed and interviewed by unrelated people, which is too boring, and there will even be friction and conflict. Don't overestimate the morality of the paparazzi, they will do anything for the news.

So Tony is about to buy a small island near New Zealand, and the wedding will take place on the island when the time comes. Before, the island was just a remote desert island, uninhabited. So Tony also needs to invest a sum of money to make the entire island habitable, so that he can hold a wedding on it.

When the time comes, his Iron Armor and Jarvis Intelligence will monitor the entire island to ensure that no unrelated person can go to the island. And that's the wedding project he prepared. Now that Pepp is pregnant, if her stomach fights day by day, she can't wear the wedding dress she made before.

So the wedding is either early or goes all the way back. Wait until after Peppel has been produced. Tony has now begun to speed up the renovation of the island, aiming to complete it by Christmas.

Li Jie smiled and said, "Then congratulations." ”

"Thank you. Tony lifted the drink bottle and replied to Li Jie like a red wine glass. Starting a new family was a new experience for Tony, with a fear and an anticipation. It's a complicated feeling, and it's no longer a simple union of a man and a woman.

Rather, it is a new member of the family, although the child has not yet been born. But the moment it was confirmed that Peppard was pregnant, Tony suddenly felt that his life had been extended. A strange feeling, although he didn't really see the baby still in Pepp's body, Tony suddenly had a feeling that he was willing to do anything for this unborn child.

Of course, Jack and Rogers weren't surprised by Pepp's pregnancy. The only strange thing about them is that from the time Tony lost his parents at the age of sixteen or seventeen, his life became debauched.

There has never been news of an illegitimate child in all these years, and there really is no girl who wants to tie up Tony with a child? Well, to put it mildly, even if it can't tie Tony. Just for the sky-high annual alimony in the future, there will still be many women who want to conceive Tony's child. Some people can do anything for money.

And that's what is strange about Li Jie and Rogers, Rogers really wants to ask Tony: Didn't you turn out to be ligated?

But at this happy moment, Rogers could only purse his lips and smile. Although the captain is an upright boy, it doesn't mean that he is a fool, okay!

Tony took a sip of his drink and didn't pay attention to the two of them's gaze, his mind all shifted to another place.

Li Jie opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, he could only open a bottle of drink and take a big sip for himself. [Let me bottle an 82-year-old Sprite to crush the shock] This is Li Jie's only thought.

Bang~ The wine glass was gently lowered, and Father Edward sat in the confessional room and quietly read "One Hundred Years of Solitude". He enjoyed the moment of peace, Edward was an old priest. He was over seventy years old, but he had never been promoted. The position has been that of an ordinary priest at a community church in Queens, New York.

But Father Edward enjoyed this life, and he didn't care about the power in religion. He was a devout believer, but he rarely took the initiative to preach. Because Father Edward believed that it is a man's choice to believe or not to believe. God should not interfere with man's free will.

Free will is precious and should be protected. It was because of this view that Father Edward was still an ordinary priest in a community church at the age of seventy.

However, he is very popular in the community, because modern life is becoming more and more stressful, and urban people, especially the "city people" in a megacity like New York, have some mental illness to a greater or lesser extent.

It may be temporary depression, or hyperactivity, or emaciation. This is a very normal phenomenon, and many developed countries, including the United States, are very serious about this kind of mental illness or psychological depression.

Therefore, the psychiatrist's office is a normal medical service in the United States, just like the dentist's office. There is no psychological pressure on everyone to go to a psychiatrist as much as a dentist. Of course, just as most Americans don't necessarily have the money to go to the dentist, many Americans don't have the money to see a psychiatrist.

After all, the price of the psychologist's hourly fee is really not low. In this case, Father Edward's confessional became a good choice.

Father Edward never asked the person who came to confess whether he was religious, nor did he ask about the identity of the other person, and even the confessional room was designed so that he could not see what the other person looked like. In the confessional room, he was always just listening, occasionally talking. Let those who come to confess or pray receive psychological healing.

Because Father Edward felt that when a person is mentally healthy, then that person will not sin. As long as you don't sin, then it is the greatest forgiveness in this world. This is also his greatest achievement as a priest, which is more important than preaching a hundred people to be religious.

Guiding a person who might be going astray has the potential to save the lives of a hundred innocent people. Someone like Father Edward, who has solved many possible shootings or other crimes, may not be celebrated or recognized for the rest of his life.

But there are always people like him in this world, who use their humble power with the body of an ordinary person, but they practice the noblest cause in this world.

This group of people is washing the symbol of human race, they are trying to clean the sign of [human nature], even in the era of rampant materialism, they still want to retain the brilliance of human nature.

There are many people who give humanity a dirty water, but there are also many people who clean up the stain on humanity and let it continue to shine. There are doctors, soldiers, teachers, and all kinds of ordinary people.

Of course, there were people like Father Edward. They are doing the same thing in different ways, and perhaps they themselves are unaware of it. Perhaps this is the main reason why these people have been able to persist for decades, rather than placing a noble cause at a high level, but treating it as a meaningful ordinary job.

Father Edward liked to have a drink in the confessional, and he drank his own wine. However, because the craftsmanship is not particularly good, the wine produced is far less good than the wine that can be sold in the store for tens of dollars or hundreds of dollars a bottle.

Home-brewed wine tastes slightly sour and astringent, with only a slightly sweet aftertaste. Father Edward loved the smell and called it the "taste of life".

The confessional room was filled with the faint aroma of wine, and Father Edward's "One Hundred Years of Solitude" had already seen page 102. Just as he was about to turn the page, Father Edward heard someone coming in from the compartment of the confessional.

Pedal stare ~ slightly heavy pace. Father Edward could tell from this pace that his master was full of thoughts.

"Father, do you think the peace of this world is real or hypocritical?" in English, with a slight Middle Eastern accent, the tone is very smooth and powerful: "Do you think our world is moving too fast?"
