Because of the girl's death, Mary was out of sorts all day on Thanksgiving.

As she thought about the girl's incident over and over in her mind, she gradually began to question the existence of God.

In her opinion, if God really existed, he would never do such a cruel thing to his believers on Thanksgiving Day.

In the evening, Grandma Connie, who had cooked a big dinner, shouted to her daughter, who was still sitting in front of the monument in the yard, thinking about life: "Mary, it's time for the family dinner to begin~"

Feeling the happy atmosphere at home, I also thought that at this time, a couple was sad because of the loss of their daughter.

At this moment, Mary's faith in God was shaken.

Since God cannot bless his believers, what he is doing now is meaningless. Frustrated, Mary stepped forward and kicked down the monument she had carefully built, and then angrily entered the house.

He looked at his wife who was sitting at the dining table, exuding low pressure. George reminded aloud: "Mary, it's time to pray before meals."

"No, he doesn't deserve our thanks~" Mary said angrily.

George was not used to his wife's changes. After a pause, he still smiled and said, "Okay, let me skip the prayer session and start eating directly."

Then, in order to liven up the atmosphere, he raised the wine glass in front of him and continued: "Thank you Connie for preparing such a sumptuous table of delicious food for us~"

Thanksgiving dinner is all about the atmosphere.

So, no matter whether it was juice or beer in front of them, everyone raised their glasses. Even Mary, who looked unhappy, raised the beer glass in her hand at this moment.

After a round of thanks, Grandma Connie greeted everyone with a smile: "Try the special barbecue I made, and the turkey..."

Although, at this Thanksgiving dinner, Mary had a cold face from beginning to end. However, with Grandma Connie and George adjusting the atmosphere, the atmosphere at the table was still very lively.

And this dinner also took a long time.

After Mike and Grandma Connie left, Mary also sent the children and her husband, who was almost drunk, back to their rooms.

After clearing away the dishes, Mary took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, went to the living room alone, and settled on the sofa.

Obviously, she hasn't let go of what happened to the girl.

"Mom~"

While Mary was drinking, little Sheldon came to her.

"Shelly, why aren't you asleep yet?" Mary asked in concern as she sat up from the sofa.

"I see you are very unhappy today..." Little Sheldon thought of comforting words: "I want to tell you that I love you~"

Mary felt much better after hearing her youngest son's true confession. She stood up, hugged him, and said, "I love you too~"

After a long time, Mary calmed down and said, "Okay, Shelly. It's time for you to go to bed."

Then, she sent her youngest son back to the room and covered him with a quilt.

Seeing her little son sleeping, Mary finally had a smile on her face. Most of the depression in my heart seemed to have disappeared.

God has given her such a happy family, what more could she ask for.

The next day, when Mary came to the church, she seemed to think about the girl again.

Feeling rebellious, she found Pastor Jeff and asked, "Is God really merciful?"

"Of course, everything we enjoy now is given by God..."

Although he didn’t know what Mary’s current situation was, Pastor Jeff still gave the other party an affirmative answer.

Then, without waiting for Mary to continue asking, Pastor Jeff continued: "By the way, Mary. The church investigator is not here during this time, so I want you to take over this job. I will give you another hundred meters every week What do you think of Yuan’s salary?”

"Really?" Mary heard that she had a more important job and her salary had also increased a lot. Her face immediately showed a happy expression.

Her previous job was entirely as a personal assistant to Pastor Jeff, which was very monotonous.

In addition to preparing coffee for the pastor every day, I also help him organize documents.

The most I can do is file taxes for the church once a month. Moreover, she shared the tax filing work with her smart younger son.

Therefore, Mary's previous job in the church was both very relaxing and very boring.

But now the investigator's new job is different. As a semi-welfare institution, the church also has the task of taking care of the lonely elderly people and left-behind children in the surrounding areas.

This work can directly help others, which is very meaningful to Mary, who is still feeling a little confused at the moment.

"By the way, there is an old man on our care list who retired from the second class. I heard that he has a very weird personality. You should pay more attention..." Pastor Jeff specially warned.

According to the information, this old man has no children and no friends. He is also a pauper with an eccentric personality. It is very difficult to deal with him when he thinks about it.

"It doesn't matter, leave it to me~" Mary was full of energy.

Then, she followed the address on the document and found the old man's home.

As soon as she entered the door, Mary smelled an unspeakable strange smell filling the room. Moreover, the small room was filled with all kinds of garbage and debris.

"Hello, is anyone here?" Mary called into the room after finding a place to stay among a pile of debris.

After a long time, an old man in a wheelchair came out of the room inside. He stared at Mary with evil eyes and asked, "Who are you?"

The old man looked very old, his face was covered with age spots, but his eyes were still bright and fierce.

"I'm a staff member of the church and I'm here to help you..." Mary said with a forced smile while holding back her discomfort.

"Has the church changed people again? You look more pleasing to the eye than the previous person~" The old man's hoarse and low tone made people feel uncomfortable. But after knowing Mary's identity, his eyes were not as scary as before.

"Yes, I will take care of you for a while." Mary asked tentatively, "Excuse me, do you need my help now?"

"Are you blind?" The old man looked around the messy room, his meaning was obvious.

"I'll clean it up for you right now~" Mary didn't say much and immediately started to tidy up the room.

On the other side, the old man stared at Mary for a few times, then turned his wheelchair and returned to the back.

More than two hours later, Mary, who was sweating on her forehead, finally tidied up the room.

The sunlight shines into the clean and tidy little house, which makes the home a little more alive.

"Is there anything else you need me to do?" Mary, who had been busy for a while, felt very accomplished when looking at the clean and tidy room.

"I haven't taken a shower for a long time." The old man said dryly.

He didn't seem to want to thank Mary for keeping the room so clean.

"You want me to help you take a bath?" Mary asked in surprise and embarrassment.

However, the old man did not answer Mary's question. His sharp eyes stared at Mary again.

"Okay, I understand." Perhaps out of sympathy, Mary agreed to the request.

Moreover, she did smell an unpleasant smell in front of the other party. Obviously, the old man did not lie.

More than an hour later, the old man, who had freshened up and put on clean clothes, sat back in the wheelchair.

"If you have nothing else, I'll leave first." It was already afternoon, and Mary, who had been busy for most of the day, didn't get a word of thanks from the other party.

Therefore, she felt a little dissatisfied and didn't want to stay here any longer.

"Wait a minute~" the old man stopped Mary and instructed, "Go and get the box on top of the wardrobe."

Mary, who was about to leave, patiently took down a small iron box from the top of the wardrobe and handed it to the old man.

The box was opened, and a golden medal appeared inside. The old man stroked it carefully, as if he was lost in memories.

"Can I go?" Seeing that the other party didn't speak for a long time, Mary asked.

"Let's go~" the old man said without raising his head.

When Mary walked to the door, she heard the old man say again: "If I die, please help me keep this medal..."

When Mary heard the word death, she stopped and looked back. The old man had already gone back to the back room.

"What a weirdo~" After shaking her head, Mary walked towards her home.

During dinner time at Cooper's house, Mary shared the old man's story with everyone.

Seeing that his wife had returned to her previous state, George smiled and said, "You are an angel now."

Mary did indeed do something good today that can be praised.
