Then several people who had entered the room before came out, and they had a discussion on this issue.
Tim's family is a very typical big family, as can be seen from his series of aunts and uncles, but perhaps it is also because his grandparents and maternal grandfather are reorganized families, each with several children, so they are particularly special.
lively.
But he didn't think there was anything good about it at all, and he didn't understand Peter's envy. His head was buzzing when he thought of his aunt and her army.
Even now, the main reason why he wants to fall in love is that as long as he has a partner, he will have an excuse to move out. He really doesn't want to live with the whole family anymore.
Jason also comes from a big family, but his family was his own choice, that is, the former children's gang. It is different from most people's situations and has little reference value.
He couldn't say whether it was better to be in the Wayne Group now or living on the street. Of course, whether it was better didn't refer to living standards, but to the social atmosphere. When he was wandering on the streets, even though he ate a meal but didn't finish a meal, he only needed one meal.
When he returned to their small base and saw his companions, he felt that everything was worth it.
Harley is in a similar situation to him. It can be said that she has experienced both. Before her parents died, they were a typical small family. Later, they wandered the streets and made many friends.
Steve expressed his understanding. Although he also came from a small family in the city, he once had a group of bad friends. Bucky was one of them. They played together since they were young and they were always jumping up and down every day. This made up for the small children very well.
Family loneliness.
Matt comes from a single-parent family, his father is a boxer, and he has been bullied since he was a child. His loneliness is the most serious. However, he met his girlfriend earlier, and Erica was even worse than him. The two hugged each other for warmth, and they still feel lonely.
After having children, the loneliness of youth has gone with the wind.
The situation of the raven is somewhat similar to that of Schiller. He has no father or mother, but lives in a relatively harmonious social environment. There are people who play the role of father and mother, and there are many ordinary people who take care of and educate them.
On the contrary, because of this special growth environment, they do not have much obsession with family. They do not believe that they must form a family and continue the blood line in order to obtain a stable social circle. They know better than anyone that the family atmosphere actually mainly depends on
What kind of people a family member is, not whether they are related by blood.
This shows that Dick and Raven have different pursuits of family environment, but interestingly, Jason and Harley, who have similar experiences, have more prominent conflicts in this regard.
Jason chose to form a family without blood because he needed family. As for Harley, although she was not responsible for the death of her parents, she was not sad or regretful. Those who later met on the street felt sorry for her.
For her, she is only a temporary helper. Generally speaking, Ms. Quinzel does not need a family.
To go deeper, Jason hopes that he can be responsible for others, and that he can feel happiness from the process of being responsible. Taking responsibility is his way to realize his self-worth.
This is not the case with Harley. She avoids taking responsibility for others, but hopes that others will be responsible for her and become the responsibility borne by others, making her feel her own importance.
In a sense, they are quite compatible.
Everyone felt sleepy while chatting. The main result of this chat was that Peter finally decided to raise a cat with Gwen. He had already decided on an adoption location and would go see the cat when he returned to New York.
Schiller set out early the next morning. Although the farm party only started in the evening, because it was a bit far away, he needed to drive there in advance.
Because Pamela needed to carry out the Cabbage Beating Plan, she went with Schiller. Tim originally wanted to go with him, but he had nothing serious to do. If Schiller didn't take him, there was nothing he could do.
Not long after Schiller set off, Steve and Jason also set off. Steve took over the security mission of the FBI. After all, someone claimed that there would be an assassination case. They came to the West Coast just for this, so naturally they had to go there.
Staring.
But the FBI couldn't bring outsiders with them when carrying out their mission, and Tim had no reason to follow them.
Harley, Tim and Barry all came relatively late and hadn't had much fun here yet, so Tim took them to explore the city of Los Angeles.
Tim was always thinking about the party at the Love Farm, so he was always distracted. He could hide it from others, but he couldn't hide it from Harley. She sat in the passenger seat and turned to Tim and said: "What are you thinking about?"
?You didn’t even hear what I was talking to you just now.”
"No, it's nothing. I was just thinking that this small party could gather so many big people and influence the situation on the West Coast."
"This is not like the emotion you would express." Harley said: "You are actually thinking about some unknown secret behind this party, right?"
"The current situation is quite clear." Tim said: "I probably already know the relationship between several forces in this universe, and I can probably think of what they want to get from this party, but I instinctively feel that something is wrong.
.”
"Then trust your instinct." Harley said: "We are very similar, we always have a genius-like intuition, and many times that is our life-saving straw."
Tim shook his head and didn't say much. He obviously still trusted his rational judgment more and felt that he should not be disturbed by inexplicable intuition.
Harry just smiled and did not continue to persuade.
Because today was the weekend, Los Angeles was extremely congested. By the time they walked around the city and finished looking at the street scenes, it was already noon.
The few of them were discussing where to eat. Naturally, Tim kept thinking of fooling around and just finding a cafe to have a sandwich. Barry didn't care at all, but Harley and Peter were more picky.
Harley has a high consumption level and has always eaten good food, while Peter, influenced by Schiller, is no longer used to eating white people's food. Even if he is too busy in the laboratory, he still has to eat well.
Several people walked around in a circle without deciding what to eat. Finally, Tim shouted, "That seems to be Chinatown over there, right?"
Peter looked at it and found that it wasn't. It could be said to be a Chinese community. It didn't have the bright and exaggerated decoration style of Chinatown, but Chinese was everywhere. According to his experience, the restaurants here should be delicious.
Several people really didn't want to go shopping anymore, so they drove into the community. Peter was obviously the most experienced. After they got off the car, they walked along the street, and Peter's family looked in one by one.
First of all, if there are many people in the kitchen, you cannot enter. It is best if there is only one person cooking and one person helping. The menu is too fancy and cannot be entered. It is best if the menu is customized more than ten years ago and is now white and blurred. The waiter
If you act too enthusiastic, you won't be allowed in. It's better if you look impatient and you can't even count the number of people.
Of course, there are many extra points. For example, there is a child doing homework at the front counter. The one wearing glasses is the best. The boss lady curses in Cantonese on the phone. The one with Chinese characters printed on the apron is the best. There must be a mat on the top of the wooden table.
The tablecloth is covered with a plastic mat, and the plastic mat has turned yellow.
Peter picked out a restaurant that looked very authentic at first sight. After a few people walked in, the waiter shouted something they didn't understand, and the people walked to the table they indicated and sat down.
There were many dishes on the menu, and Peter picked some very skillfully. He rubbed his hands and said, "Believe me, you can't go wrong with this one."
After a while, the food in the casserole was brought up, exuding an indescribable rich aroma, followed by the food in the cage, and many snacks on the plates.
None of them knew how to use chopsticks, not even Peter, so they could only eat with a fork. Harry forked a piece of hot sausage from the casserole and put it into his mouth, hissed a few times, and gave a thumbs up.
After procrastinating for too long, several people were a little hungry and started to cook like crazy. This was mainly because Peter didn't brag. He was indeed very good at choosing Chinese restaurants. The food here was hot and fresh, rich in color and tasty, and all the time.
The food is delicious and very authentic.
Tim actually didn't know most of the ingredients, but that didn't stop him from enjoying the food. He didn't slump on the chair until it was almost to his throat.
“All I can say is, long live Chinese food.”
"Uh, what's the name of your city? There should be good Chinese food in Gotham, right? Have you never had it before?"
"I'm not as capable as you." Tim shook his head and continued: "I don't have so much free time, and I can't understand what these things are from the takeout menu."
"You can't have too high expectations for an American like him." Barry said: "It's good if he can learn to use the food delivery software."
"You are the most vicious Flash I have ever seen." Tim said, "Didn't your peers mention this? You should learn to talk to them."
"Don't mind the side effects of writing a thesis."
Tim took the menu and confirmed which dish was which. Apparently, Chinese food might be a food that often appears in his office in the future.
After comparing it, he found out that there was a dish that he actually ate yesterday and it was made by Schiller. He thought about it and said.
"Perhaps Schiller has a good taste in food, but his cooking skills are also terrible. The vegetable he cooked yesterday was not delicious at all."
Peter was a little surprised. He said, "Schiller made this stir-fried vegetables yesterday?"
"Yes, you came late and didn't get to eat, but there's no regrets. It's really not that delicious, and it's far worse than the restaurant."
"No, I mean, how can he make fried vegetables?"
Tim also looked at him slightly puzzled and said, "Don't he like to eat this very much?"
"What did you say? This one? This one is Cantonese cuisine."
"Yeah, just because it's Cantonese food..."
"But Schiller doesn't like Cantonese food. What he likes to eat most is Sichuan food." Peter said: "Boiled fish, Kung Pao chicken, garlic white meat..."
From the accent in which Peter said these words, we could tell that he must have eaten them frequently, and then he added: "Doctors really like spicy food."
"Didn't he say he has a light taste?"
"His taste is bland?! The taste of his cooking makes me suspect that he was a fire-breathing dragon in his previous life!"
Tim paused blankly.
Schiller actually doesn’t like Cantonese food? In other words, he doesn’t go there for the famous Cantonese chef?
Then why does he have to go to the banquet?
And why did you tell him that his taste was bland and specially cooked Cantonese food to lie to him?
