Chapter 10 (1/2)
Three days passed quickly. Kraft took a gift for Aunt Mei and took a ride to Queens.
”Happy birthday, Aunt Mei.”
He walked into Parker's yard and gave the gift to Peter Parker. Kraft came forward and hugged Aunt Mei, and then said hello to the middle-aged man next to her.
”Uncle Ben, long time no see.”
”Hello, kraft.”
Benjamin Parker patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said, ”I was surprised to see your news on TV some time ago.”
Kraft curled his lips: ”it's not that guy who has nothing to do with stark. I'm almost bored to death.”
”Hey! Can you say that, Mr. stark? ”
Peter Parker stood aside to defend his idol.
”Why not say that he is not my idol. For me, he is a big trouble, that's all.”
”But your product can sell so many because of Mr. Stark's promotion!”
Peter Parker said eloquently.
”Oh? Do you think our family will lack that money? ”
Kraft raised his chin with disdain.
”What a nuisance you look now! Kraft! You've become what you used to hate most! ”
”Yes, because I just learned what Tony Stark usually looks like.”
Kraft shrugged and mocked.
”You see, without the fan filter, you actually hate Tony Stark.”
”This... This is not the same at all!”
Peter Parker retorted stiffly.
At this time, Aunt Mei came and made a round. She held Kraft's shoulder and pushed him to the house.
”Well, well, stop bullying Peter and come and try my apple pie.”
”Oh, well, it's really a little inappropriate for a seventh grader to bully an eleventh grader.”
Kraft spread his hand and walked to the house with Aunt Mei's strength.
”Come on, Peter, come with me to move out the grill.”
Uncle Ben patted Peter on the back as a comfort, and then took him inside.
”Oh! Look who this is? Our little genius, kraft Lee! ”
As soon as he entered the room, the fat ned Leeds came running with his fat body shaking and shouted in an exaggerated tone.
Kraft was friendly to the fat man who was also Asian. He stretched out his hand and slapped ned ned. Then he said modestly, ”come on, Ned, the technical content of those things I made is not high. Haven't there been many imitation products?”
The copyright law of the United States has been very strict, but capitalists can always find loopholes. After the mechanism lock was brought to fire by stark, similar but different puzzle solving locks and forced fitness devices similar to the wrecking treadmill soon appeared.
”But they haven't been attracted by the famous Tony Stark, have they?”
”Oh, no kidding...” Kraft rolled his eyes. ”Do you really think Tony Stark treats me differently? He just said it casually. ”
Kraft, who has no fan filter, is still very sober. With Tony Stark's inconsistent character, he may forget his name after the interview.
Talking and laughing with Ned, he walked into the living room. Kraft picked up an apple pie made by Aunt Mei and looked at the others in the living room while eating it.
Several familiar faces should be the staff in the shelter. There are two or three unknown friends, perhaps my uncle's friends. There are no others.
”There don't seem to be many people.”
Kraft swallowed the apple pie in his hand and looked at ned with some wonder. With the good character of Aunt Mei and Uncle Ben, his friends should be more than that. Martin had held two birthday parties for Aunt Mei in the shelter before. Which time was not the noisy gong and drum, the roaring of firecrackers, the waving of red flags and the sea of people.
Ned replied angrily, ”Peter's house is such a big place. Can you stand with so many people?”
”Well, I'm stupid.”
Kraft patted his forehead and looked left and right.
”What about Mary? Why didn't she come? ”
Mary's full name is Mary Jane Watson. She is not only Peter's neighbor, classmate and secret lover, but also the niece of Aunt Mei's good friend Anna Watson. Therefore, it is reasonable that she should also attend Aunt Mei's birthday party.
”It is said that Aunt Mei gave Peter the task of inviting Mary, and then... You know.”
Ned shrugged and said helplessly.
”Ho ho ~”
Kraft narrowed his eyes and smiled like a fox.
”There is a Chinese saying that distant relatives are better than close neighbors. Isn't it impolite for Aunt Mei not to call Mary on her birthday?”
”Say that to Peter.”
Ned shook his head and picked up the fourth apple pie. This was the amount Kraft saw when he came in. He must have eaten less before.
Reaching out and patting Ned's big belly, kraft sighed, ”seeing you, I seem to see David's future.”
