Chapter 869 Beautiful Weekend

"Wait, what did you say, what do you mean?" Ron yelled out of control. His ears were as red as carpaccio now. "She went out with someone else - my sister and - what do you mean, with Michael Corner?"

Hermione realized that she had spilled the beans and seemed a little embarrassed, but she still calmed down.

"Yeah, so here he is with his friends, and I guess... well, they're obviously interested in learning about defense, but if Ginny doesn't tell Michael what's going on..."

"When...when did she...?" Ron asked in disbelief. All this greatly exceeded his expectations.

"They met at the Yule Ball and got together at the end of last year," Hermione said calmly.

"How……"

"What's so strange about this? There are many people chasing Ginny. Otherwise, why do you think those boys from Ravenclaw would come? They are all friends of Michael Corner. Although they are very interested in learning defense skills, But she is obviously more interested in Ginny," Hermione said. "I think she will consider Michael. He is much better than the previous Zacharias, and his reputation in the school is also good. Michael has been chasing her since the last Christmas dance. Of course, there are many people in the school chasing Ginny, and she has been hesitant before agreeing, but recently she finally figured it out and there is no need to wait any longer..."

"Zacharis? You mean, before Ginny..."

"Yes, Ginny is very popular, but she recognized the true nature of Zacharias and didn't even bring him here this time..." Hermione said impatiently, "Maybe Ron, you should change Gotta be more sensitive.”

They had already walked onto the street, and Hermione didn't seem to intend to continue. She pulled Fanlin and stopped outside the quill shop. There were many beautiful pheasant quills on display in the window.

"Well... I need a new quill." She walked into the shop, Fan Lin following closely behind, and Harry and Ron following her.

Ron obviously planned to pursue the matter to the end, otherwise by this time, Ron would have taken Harry and the two of them and parted ways:

"Which one is Michael Corner?" Ron asked angrily.

"The dark one," Hermione said.

"I don't like him," Ron said immediately.

"Surprised!" Hermione said in a low voice, "But it's of no use. Maybe that's why Ginny didn't tell you about it..."

"But," said Ron, following Hermione past a row of quills in copper inkwells, "I thought Ginny was obsessed with Harry!"

Hermione looked at him sympathetically and shook her head. "Ginny used to like Harry, but she gave it up a few months ago. Not that she doesn't like him anymore, of course," she added kindly to Harry, studying a long black and gold feather Pen.

Harry's mind was filled with the way Autumn waved when he left, and he was not as interested in this topic as Ron. Ron was obviously shaking with indignation, but it was only then that he remembered the more essential issue.

"Then why is she saying it now?" he asked Hermione. "She's never mentioned it in front of me."

"Yes," Hermione said, "Yes, I want this..." She and Fan Lin walked to the counter and handed over 5 silver Sickles and 1 copper Knut. Ron was still panting next to her. .

"Ron," Hermione said sternly as she turned to Ron, "that's why Ginny didn't tell you that she had a crush on Michael, she knew you'd find it hard to accept. So thank god for the blabbering. ”

"What do you mean? Who's having trouble taking it? I don't want to go on and on about anything..." Ron muttered all the way back.

While Ron was still cursing Michael Corner under his breath, Hermione glanced at Harry and whispered, "Speaking of Ginny and Michael...how are you and Cho?"

"What do you mean?" Harry said quickly. His heart boiled like boiling water, and a strong emotion made his face boil in the cold wind - was he so obvious?

"Come on, Harry," Fan Lin shook his head, "From the beginning to the end, Qiu's eyes never left your side, right?"

Harry had never found Hogsmeade to be so beautiful.

For the rest of the weekend, Harry felt happier than he had ever felt all semester.

He and Ron spent most of Sunday catching up on their homework, which certainly couldn't be called fun. But because the autumn sun was shining brightly, they no longer gathered around the table, but put aside their homework and wandered around under the shadow of the big trees by the lake.

Hermione, who was determined to finish all her homework on time, brought more wool and cast magic on her knitting needles, so that they reflected the dazzling sunlight in mid-air and knitted more knitting needles with a "tick" sound. hat and tablecloth.

Fan Lin was also leaning on the tree while practicing magic. Harry watched an ice flower bloom in Fan Lin's hand. It was a rose, but it looked like Fan Lin was not very skilled and a little ugly, but Hermione was not like that. feel.

Although he couldn't understand what Fan Lin was doing, it still didn't stop a few people from making random noises.

However, they are not the only ones taking action.

Knowing that they were taking action to resist Umbridge and the Ministry of Magic, and that Umbridge was a key figure in the rebellion, Harry felt great satisfaction. So many people were involved, and a Magic contract...

Harry thought about the meetings every Saturday in his mind: all the people who came to him to learn Defense Against the Dark Arts, their expressions after hearing what he had done, Cho's admiration for his performance in the Triwizard Tournament. commend……

He felt so uplifted by knowing that these people no longer thought of him as a lying scoundrel, that some even admired him, that his happy mood continued into Monday morning, even though there were no classes that he liked.

He and Ron went down to the dormitory building, discussing Angelina's idea of ​​practicing a new move called the slothgriproll during night practice. As they passed the sunlit lounge, they noticed that the extra items in the room had attracted a small crowd of people watching.

The Gryffindor bulletin board had a giant notice taped over everything else on the bulletin board - a sales list of second-hand spell books, regular school reminders posted by Administrator Filch, Quidditch The team's training schedule, some kind of Chocolate Frog card exchange announcement, Weasley's latest test ad, weekend dates for Hogsmeade, and various found object announcements.
