Christmas for Americans was like the Spring Festival for China. Whether it was reunions, dinners, or gifts between relatives and friends. Many of these were similar to China.
Some people thought that the Spring Festival and Spring Festival were limited to China, and that it was a unique family culture in China. In fact, this was not the case.
Family was the mainstream cultural value orientation all over the world. It didn't matter whether it was east or west, north or south, or race or skin color. Anyone who agreed with the most basic concept of human nature would have the concept of family value orientation.
It was just that every country, or every nation, had a different way of expressing their love for the value of family. But the core of it had not changed much.
Especially in the United States in 1965, when the Apollo program had only been four years old, and humans had not yet set foot on the moon. Human society was still full of curiosity and awe for the extraterrestrial world.
People in this era were still very devout about their faith. Conservative Catholic families and even some strict Puritan families were common in the United States.
In this era, no one shouted about human rights and then messed up the value orientation of the world, or even went to the Americas to get gorillas and cause the emergence of AIDS.
In this era, Christmas was spent at home, with family, sitting under the Christmas tree and eating the Christmas dinner made by their mother. Sitting by the fireplace, watching the snowflakes outside the window and the Christmas program on the small 12-inch TV.
Children in this era still believed in the existence of Santa Claus. They believed that when they woke up in the morning, the presents that appeared in their bedside socks were sent by Santa Claus.
Just like Peter Parker, he was born in 1915. Today, he was fifty years old. In his life, he had experienced two world wars, a Great Depression, four American presidents, and several political crises.
He had seen too much, too much. Starving workers who had lost their jobs during the Great Depression. People who relied on magazines, newspapers, and books in the public library, relying on spiritual food to numb themselves and make them forget about hunger and depression.
Those figures filled almost the entire 1930s, and also filled Peter Parker's entire adolescence. This affected his career choice for the first half of his life. He became a reporter and wrote inspiring things.
Thus encouraging people to survive in the difficult times of the Great Depression. This was once Peter Parker's wish.
And now, sitting on the Stark Corporation's private plane and looking at the white clouds outside the window, Peter had a myriad of thoughts. He had to go back to Los Angeles for Christmas. He was going to visit the Howard couple's graves with Anthony.
Peter was an old-fashioned person, and he respected tradition very much. He had taught Antony well in this respect. At the very least, Anthony now valued his family and respected the wishes and lives of others.
From that point of view, the Tony of Midgardian before his metamorphosis could not compare to Anthony of Earth One, since the two had received completely different educations during the most crucial period of their lives.
For example, Li Jie felt that Anthony's personality was more likable than Tony's.
A little stubborn, but not paranoid. He was smart and not arrogant, full of passion and righteousness. If Li Jie were to comment on Anthony, he would say that he was the template of a Japanese manga protagonist who had turned into a Paramecia (or a super robot).
Especially after she gave him a samurai armor, he became even more like a protagonist. Well, he was also very similar when it came to dealing with emotional problems.
Li Jie was thinking about this in the middle and rear of the Stark plane. This plane was bought by Howard when he was alive. It was a large wide-body plane from Boeing, not the small dedicated passenger plane produced by Gulfstream that was common in the future.
After some modifications, the plane could seat thirty-five people. There was also a sleeping area and a shower area. There was even a simple kitchen in the back, although it was impossible to cook with an open fire. But there was a heating tool similar to an induction cooker that could cook.
As Stark's most important cook at the moment, Li Jie accepted the invitation to work at Christmas. He promised to make a Christmas dinner for the Parker family and Anthony. So he was currently on the plane. It would take several hours to fly from the east coast to the west coast, and there was just enough time to have a meal in the middle.
Li Jie made a few things on the plane because the conditions were so simple. But because he used the legendary cooking utensils, which were like cheating things, the dishes were still delicious. Anyway, they were much better than ordinary airplane meals.
Just like now, when he handed the tender fried chicken breast to the Parker family and Anthony, he still received unanimous praise. Of course, there was also a person that Li Jie was familiar with and unfamiliar with.
The beautiful woman named Natasha. She seemed to have gotten on the plane through her relationship with Anthony. She praised Li Jie with a smile on her face, and Li Jie just smiled in response.
The atmosphere in the cabin was a little awkward. The main source of the awkwardness came from the cold war between May and Anthony. Both of them would talk to others, but they wouldn't talk to each other. They acted like primary school students throwing a tantrum at each other and saying, "I'll never play with you again, hmph!"
And the reason for the anger, Li Jie observed, was probably because of Natasha.
Parker and Mary never tried to control Anthony in personal love affairs. It was a very personal matter. They just had to control May.
Maybe Parker did it on purpose? Maybe he didn't want May and Anthony to be in a relationship at all.
Li Jie looked at Parker, who was calmly reading the newspaper at the front of the cabin. He couldn't help but think, "Maybe this guy has a daughter complex!"
But Li Jie was too lazy to care about such trivial things. He just went straight to the back of the plane to rest after making lunch.
After lunch, Peter Parker read the newspaper for a while, and then looked at Natasha, who was chatting happily with Anthony. There was a trace of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
He waved his hand and signaled Anthony to come over.
Anthony walked over and asked, "Uncle Parker, what's up?"
Peter Parker didn't say anything. He just took Anthony to the front of the cabin and said until they were far away from the others, "I think you should try the flight mode of the new warframe."
Anthony was a little confused. "What? I've only flown it a few times. Now the warframe is still in the cargo compartment below the cabin. Uncle Parker, you don't want me to start flying on the plane now, do you? "
Peter Parker nodded. "Why not?"
… …
Fifty thousand meters above the clouds, ten F86 fighter jets were flying to the predetermined airspace, ready to carry out an ambush. And the six sabre fighters were commanded by a signal source emitted from the Stark Corporation's private plane.
When Anthony went to the lower cargo compartment, Parker took his wife Mary to the rest area to let Mary take a nap. May, who had been giving Natasha a bad look, sat next to Natasha.
"Miss Natasha, can you tell me who's behind this?" May held Natasha firmly with one hand.
Li Jie, who had been hiding at the end of the cabin and secretly preparing to watch the two beauties fight, was a little disappointed.
He thought it was a palace fight or a family fight, but it turned out to be an old drama of good and evil? He was a little disappointed.
