Chapter 1246 Thirst for Approval
Pansy's home is located next to a forest of straight and towering yellow cedars.
According to Pansy, the forest was planted by a certain generation of her ancestors, who have lived for more than a hundred years. Needless to say, her grandparents must have hoped that their Parkinsonian family would be able to thrive and endure year after year like those yellow cedars.
And if you just look at it on the surface, the Parkinson Manor seems to be so magnificent and luxurious, as if the whole family has always been as brilliant and brilliant as it was at its peak.
It's a pity that no matter how hard Pansy's parents and family try to maintain this prosperous scene, the reality is always indifferent.
In order to make the appearance look more glamorous, the daily expenses of their family are not even as good as ordinary wizard families who are slightly better.
Pansy remembered that her brother used to secretly complain about not getting enough to eat. But that's because my mother is budget-conscious and insists on taking part of the daily meal expenses, just to save enough for afternoon tea parties at least once a week.
Yes, in fact, Pan Xi also understands that it is indeed very important to have a good relationship with the female relatives of other families. As the hostess of the Parkinson family, the mother did this in order not to embarrass her father.
But sometimes when I walk casually at home, when I see many places where no one goes, it looks extremely empty, and I can't help but feel a feeling of sadness.
Now, when Pansy brought Maca to this seemingly dazzling mansion, an urge to smash it into pieces suddenly appeared in her heart.
To be honest, comparing the two, the gap is really too big.
As we all know, Maca was born of Muggles, and he is still an orphan who doesn't even have a family. But his name is not only well-known in the British magic circle, but also has a great reputation even in the global magic circle.
But their Parkinson's family is still clinging to such a vain shell, and a complete overturn has even become a foreseeable thing.
However, after experiencing such a period of danger and opportunity, Pan Xi has at least realized how much he has. It might be impossible for her to overturn the ending of Parkinson's family by herself.
"Aren't you going to open the door?"
Maca stood beside Pansy, and stretched out her hand as a gesture.
"Ah!" Pan Xi nodded lightly when she heard the words, "I...I'll go right away."
At this moment, she suddenly felt that she might feel a little bit like her mother—it was a kind of fear that others would see her embarrassing side.
But at the same time, she was a little thankful that it was Maca who came to her home today.
Because of the current understanding of Maca, she knows that any cover-up is probably meaningless in the eyes of the other party. Perhaps before coming here, Maca already knew the real situation of their family.
While thinking about it, Pan Xi stretched out his hand and pushed the closed door open, then turned around slightly, and nodded slightly at Maca as if he was relieved.
"Professor McLean, please come in."
"Ok."
To be honest, Maca really has no interest in caring about the ups and downs of the Parkinson family right now... Maybe after seeing Pansy's mother later, he will use this matter to give himself an advantage,
But that's probably all there is to it.
Following Pan Xi, who took a step ahead, into the front hall, you can see all kinds of furnishings that have been decorated in great detail.
The expensive and bright tapestries, the oil paintings with a sense of history, and the polished armors are all arranged on both sides in an orderly manner. The carpet under the feet is fluffy and thick, which makes people feel as if they are stepping on the clouds, extending all the way to the front of the deepest main hall.
One by one magic lamps were neatly hung on the wall posts, emitting a soft but bright delicate radiance.
"Crackling—"
Accompanied by a slight explosion, a house elf suddenly appeared on the side of the carpet and bowed respectfully to Pansy.
"Dear lady, welcome home... May I ask if you want to entertain guests?"
"Sita, go and inform Mother that an important guest is coming—we'll wait for her in the main hall."
"just……"
The little elf Sita was taken aback when she heard it, but she quickly bowed again.
"Yes, miss."
Before he finished speaking, he bent over and disappeared from the spot.
But at this moment, Maca paused a little, and said to Pan Xi who was not far in front of him:
"Miss Parkinson, is the main hall ahead? You don't have to go with me."
"what?"
Pan Xi hurriedly turned her head and said with a blank expression:
"Why... why? As I said, my mother has a bad temper, and I can help you—"
"No, no need." Maca shook his head accordingly, "Actually, I came to ask your parents to borrow something...Of course, if the price is reasonable, I can buy it directly. However, regarding that I don’t want too many people to know what it is exactly.”
"I... I will keep it secret, I promise! Otherwise, I can make an 'unbreakable oath' with you! And, and I..."
Somehow, at this moment, Pan Xi especially hoped that he could go in with him, as if he could get something out of it by doing so.
She couldn't explain this feeling herself, she just felt that way.
However, Maca easily felt the intuition that Pansy hadn't figured out yet.
"Miss Parkinson, that's not the case." He said calmly, "Actually, even if it were Hermione or Harry who came instead, I would still let them stay outside."
After saying this, Maca reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and then passed her by and went deeper.
Behind him, while sipping Maca's words, Pan Xi stood on the spot and turned around to look at the back of the other party. Only then did she understand what it was that she wanted so eagerly just now.
If you have to say it, maybe it is a recognition?
Since she was completely exposed by Maca at the beginning, she was forced to obey Maca and do a lot of things. From the reluctance at the beginning, to becoming active because of the things I experienced and the people I met on the way, and then I seemed to have the momentum to blend in with Hermione and other small partners.
Under the current circumstances, what she hopes most is probably to gain a real sense of identity. Because she has already clearly felt how wonderful it is to have so many friends who are worthy of giving their sincerity.
What's more, her best friend still doesn't know what happened to her! She needs Maca to take her to the Ministry of Magic to have a look, and...maybe she needs Maca's help even more.
"Boom."
The main hall door was closed.
