New York has been weathering for days.

A gloomy sky envelops this steel jungle of more than 20 million people. It was as if people's emotions were infected. Pedestrians hurried with umbrellas and expressionless faces, and the crowded vehicles braved the exhaust fumes from time to time to sound the sound of impatient dripping.

Occasionally, a yellow taxi driven by an old driver pops up, and when it flashes over some waterlogged roads, there is always a big splash, and pedestrians who are almost affected start to curse loudly...

Lee's handicraft shop.

Li Mo collapsed on the rocking chair in a posture of Ge You, feeling bored and a little loveless.

People are like this, when there is something, I think that Lao Tzu doesn't want to do anything, I want to rest! I feel itchy all over my body after a few days of free.

Turk. Barrett's pill sales were going well, the customer response was good, and there was no bad idea.

Li Mo himself finally put down his heart and tried one,

The next day from Jessica Jones' house,

Walking out,

In the pink of health...

Phil. Coulson took a batch of pills from him, sent another batch of medicinal herbs, transferred $100,000, and left in a hurry, saying that there was something to do at the border.

Tony. Stark had made a phone call, and Li Mo wanted to ask him to get two of the latest gaming equipment from the Blizzard show. But the two began to taunt each other while talking on the phone, and finally quarreled. But looking at the slut's excitement at the time, it may have been synthesized into a new element.

I was going to drive to Yellowstone, but the damn weather...

In the store, little Lucas is still studying with a law book, this kid is even more Chinese than Chinese. George sat there and watched TV seriously, only looking at Li Mo with an expectant look from time to time.

This guy always complains that people are wasted and comes up with tasks. But Li Mo didn't have any ghost tasks for him, did running errands, buying cigarettes and buying alcohol count?

Li Mo touched his nose and suddenly asked curiously: "George, I read your resume, why did you insist on going to S.H.I.E.L.D. despite the retention of the troops?" ”

George was a little embarrassed, and said with a reminiscence on his face: "I can say that I am a survivor of a supernatural event, I lived in Indiana when I was a child, and four classmates accidentally opened the door to another dimension... So, I've been fascinated by these kinds of events since I was a child. Moreover, the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D. was the place where the captain stayed. ”

Looking at George's face full of obsession and adoration, Li Mo shook his head, he was a fan of the American team, no wonder Coulson recruited this guy in.

At this time, little Lucas received a phone call, and after listening to it, his face was full of unhappiness, and he said helplessly to Li Mo: "Boss, I have been kicked out, and I want to live with you for a while before renting a new house." ”

Li Mo was a little strange, "Kicked out?" What's going on? ”

Little Lucas shook his head and said, "I heard that the apartment building I rented was going to be renovated by the developer. God knows what that hell can be built? ”

"Because the place was dilapidated and the rent was cheap, most of the residents signed long-term contracts. Now that the developer wants to break the contract, we young people don't care, and we get a small amount of compensation. But some lonely and widowed elderly people don't want to move out of there, and they are harassed by water and electricity cuts and people come to harass them from time to time, and their lives are very miserable. But I've heard that a new law firm called Nelson Murdock in Hell's Kitchen is willing to help them sue the developer. ”

George was a little strange, "Normal business practices, huh?" Why don't you want to move? ”

Little Lucas rolled his eyes with disdain, how did this good baby who grew up in a middle-class white family know the hardships of the people at the bottom.

Li Mo explained, "These elderly people have no ability to work and no income, and they live on welfare funds. They can still have a home with the previous rent, but if they move out, even if they get compensation, they will be displaced and become homeless. ”

George was a little stunned, "How can this be?" Is there anything I can do to help them? ”

Little Lucas shook his head expressionlessly, "You can't do anything!" Because the entire area is going to be demolished, there will be more than 500 lonely elderly people, most of whom were drug addicts and sick when they were young. This is not a burden that the average person can bear. ”

Li Mo saw that the two of them were a little depressed, and comforted: "Let's take a look at the results of the lawyer's lawsuit first." Oh yes, it occurred to me that it would be a good idea to eat hot pot in this weather..."

George watched Li Mo busy preparing the dishes there, and said to little Lucas with some emotion: "The chief is so nice, in order to comfort us, he cooks himself." ”

Little Lucas pursed his lips, "Of course the boss is good, but you can eat less of the dishes he likes to clip for a while." Also, how much do you drink? ”

…………

After lunch, George dragged little Lucas away. said they were going out for a walk, but Li Mo couldn't guess what they were going to do.

George, as an agent of a black-hearted agency like S.H.I.E.L.D., is really very unqualified. It's even a wonder.

But

To be able to see this kind of warm-hearted guy,

It's always in a good mood.

Li Mo squinted and smoked a cigarette, it is not appropriate to exercise after eating! Lying on the rocking chair and rocking, I fell asleep and snored...

Jingle bells... Jingle bells

A phone rang and suddenly woke up Li Mo from his sleep. I opened my phone in a daze and looked at it, but there was no caller ID. Following the prestige, it turned out to be a corded phone on the counter.

I still have a landline phone in my store?

How I didn't know!

Li Mo stood up and stretched, and picked up the phone weakly.

"Hello, is this Lee's Crafts Shop?" A girl's voice came from the opposite side, sounding immature and sweet.

"Well, who are you?"

"This is Leo. Lieberman, when will you be back? ”

"Come here? Do? Li Mo was a little strange.

"Didn't you already take orders online?"

"Taking orders online? Wait a minute..."Li Mo covered the microphone and called little Lucas on his mobile phone, "Little Lucas, what's going on with this?" How can we have online orders? ”

After explaining, Li Mo learned that little Lucas had registered an online store for Li's handicraft shop in order to expand his business. At that time, he had already told Li Mo, but Li Mo just said that he would play casually.

The online store is also sluggish, and only yesterday received the first order: a little girl's mother likes Chinese culture, this girl decided to give her mother a birthday surprise, and needed Li Mo to take a handicraft vase as a birthday gift, and also to take some Chinese knots and streamers to help arrange the birthday party.

Little Lucas had prepared something, but after a little drink, George dragged him away and forgot about it.

This little Lucas can really find trouble!

Li Mo picked up the earpiece and said in a kind tone: "I'm sorry, little girl, we are going to go out of business, can you find another one?" ”

The little girl on the other side was anxious when she heard this, and she was already sobbing, "Then what should I do?" I'm going to set it up before my mom gets off work, it's too late to find one! Mom was tired of taking care of us alone, I just wanted to make her happy..."

What a filial little girl,

What a little angel.

Li Mo's heart softened, "Ok, okay, don't worry, I'll go over now." ”

Putting down the phone, Li Mo hurriedly packed up his things and rushed out in a wild horse.

Li Mo is a person who has compassion, but he is more focused on children. He sympathized with the old men in Hell's Kitchen, but only to say that he had to think about what he was really going to do. But children are different, especially well-behaved and cute children, if they encounter misfortune, they will cry.

In his thoughts, apart from some diseases and accidents, many of the misfortunes of adults are due to their own wrong choices. Or because of greed, or because of cowardice, or because of ignorance, or because of indulgence.

But no matter what the reason, when encountering misfortune, even if you are alone, you must choose to fight fate with a clenched fist.

Even if you fail like a clown, you have to say f**k you to the damn bitch of fate! Even if you are beaten, you have to straighten your back.

But children are different, the younger they are, the less they have the ability to fight, and they can only passively meet the kindness and cruelty of this world...

Queens.

The security situation here is much better than Hell's Kitchen, but it is also divided into places.

Little Leo's home is in a middle-class neighborhood, with a small self-contained building and a lawn in front of the door. Residents here generally have a stable income, and homeless people and looters are rarely seen at night.

At this time, the sky was cloudy with a layer of drizzle, Li Mo got out of the car without an umbrella, and walked to the door with the box.

After pressing the doorbell, I watched inside for a while. A little white girl about seven or eight years old, with clear eyebrows and some baby fat, opened the door.

"Is it Leo? My name is Li Mo and I am the owner of Li's handicraft shop. Li Mo tried his best to put on a kind smile.

"Thank God you're finally here! Mommy will be back in half an hour," Leo cheered, and led Li Mo into the room.

After Li Mo entered the door, he took a general look, there was a common American decoration style here, the living room was clean and orderly, and the hostess's intentions could be seen.

Placing the box on the table, Li Mo took out the things one by one from inside, "Lovely Miss Leo, this is the gift you chose, a beautiful blue and white vase, we have already packed it for you." There are also some beautiful streamers and Chinese knots that I think your mother will love. ”

Leo took the things and looked at them one by one, his eyes full of excitement.

"Alright, let's get started!" Li Mo looked at the structure of the room, already had a plan in his heart, clapped his hands and said loudly.

Pull up the ribbons, hang up the Chinese knots, and air the balloons one by one... It didn't take long for the house to be filled with a festive atmosphere.

When Li Mo shot the balloon, he saw the picture frame of a bearded man, and casually asked, "Leo, where is your father?" ”

"My father has died." Leo's excited eyes suddenly became a little dark.

"Ah, I'm sorry!" Li Mo was a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic, "By the way, have you ordered a birthday cake?" ”

"I did it myself, and I went to school in a handicraft class. I've used up my pocket money to buy gifts, but I think my mom will love it. Leo said with some pride.

"What a great little girl!" Li Mobi stretched out a big finger with an exaggerated expression of amazement. Then he patted his head again, "By the way, I forgot to tell you that as the hundredth customer of our online store, you are free of charge this time, and I will refund you later." ”

"Really? This is wonderful news! Leo excitedly high-five Li Mo.

At this moment, a beautiful blonde beauty came in after the door with a sound of unlocking. Seeing the situation in front of him, he exclaimed, "My God, who are you!" Come here, Leo! ”

Is this the girl's mother?

Li Mo was a little embarrassed,

……

"I said I didn't blame my uncle, do you believe it?"
