Chapter 1758 A War Without a Winner (Two Hundred and Ten)
Chapter 1760 A War Without Winners (Two Hundred and Ten)
The news that Fred had two black circles under his eyes after being beaten by Angelina spread rapidly in Avalon as if it had grown wings. The people who knew the cause and effect of this incident did not sympathize with Fred's experience. Instead, they gloated and laughed for several days, thinking that Fred deserved it.
Fortunately, the incident has passed and the result is satisfactory.
The only problem is that Angelina needs some time to communicate with the Holyhead Harpy team.
Anyway, after learning about this, Gwenog Jones, the captain of the Holyhead Harpy team, turned as black as the bottom of a pot and almost attacked Fred who accompanied Angelina.
Angelina is now the focus of the team's training, and her withdrawal from the team is a big blow to the team's morale.
But Angelina has accidentally become pregnant, and it is indeed not suitable for her to continue to stay in the team as a chaser, so no matter how dissatisfied Gwenog Jones is, he cannot change the current result.
Moreover, since Angelina had just joined and was not yet an official member of the Holyhead Harpies, Fred did not even have to pay a penalty to settle the matter smoothly.
But Angelina's unmarried pregnancy still caused a stir in the two families. In particular, Mrs. Weasley was greatly relieved when she learned that Angelina had completely given up becoming a Quidditch player, and began to frequently negotiate with the Johnsons about the July wedding.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or if the girls all liked to go out in groups.
Not long after, the news of Qiu Zhang's pregnancy came out. This great news directly hit Cedric a little confused.
For this reason, he was excited for several days.
"There will probably be many girls pregnant this year."
Shanna's tone was inexplicable, and she seemed not surprised at all.
This was actually unavoidable. It was not surprising that a couple was together without taking protective measures.
Fortunately, everyone's relationship was quite stable, so there was no embarrassing scene of falling out.
"I think the construction of Avalon needs to be accelerated!" Shanna reminded.
In fact, the current construction speed of Avalon is already very fast. If you want it to be faster, you can only let Albert join in.
In the end, Albert agreed to come to help build Avalon whenever he is free, and Isobel will also take time to teach the pregnant girls how to be a qualified mother, so as not to make themselves flustered after their own children are born.
Ginny is the best example. Even though she has done a lot of work in advance, she is still in a mess after James is born.
It is never easy to transform into a qualified parent.
Even Isobel herself may not be a qualified mother, but in some things, she is at least more experienced than most new mothers, and knows when she may encounter what kind of problems and how to deal with them correctly and calmly.
With the experience and experience shared by Isobel, the girls can at least have a case to learn from when they really encounter similar situations.
Of course, girls usually get instruction from their mothers, but their mothers are not Isobel, who has participated in compiling several books. They may not be able to do everything well in some things, and they can only remember them when they need them.
…
"I don't really understand why you want to do these things." Fred, who still had panda eyes, muttered as he looked at the Muggle pump being set up, and asked directly what he was wondering, "Wouldn't it be better to just use magic to pump the water up?"
"I have no problem, but you... got beaten again?"
"No, this is from last time." Fred said depressedly, "I applied ointment last time, but it didn't work."
"She must be resentful, just have a good chat." Albert reached out and patted Fred on the shoulder.
"What the hell."
Fred wanted to punch George, who was laughing at him, and changed the subject, "I still think magic is practical."
"If you don't believe it, you can try it yourself."
"Try it."
Fred was stopped by George just as he was about to try.
"Don't be silly. If it was really that useful, why would Albert do that?" George looked up at the water tower. In order to provide water pressure, the faucet was built very high.
So, Fred failed without a doubt, and failed miserably.
Wizards can indeed use magic to mobilize water, but the height of the wellhead and the water tower is beyond the reach of most wizards, so Albert was not surprised by Fred's failure.
"If I were to do it, it would take more time, not to mention that I don't want to come every now and then."
"Speaking of how the school got it, I remember there seemed to be a lot of faucets!" George felt that he had found a blind spot.
Faucets are not unfamiliar to both Muggles and wizards, but the question is where the source is and how it is done?
"Don't you have one at home too?"
"Don't look at me. My family seems to have secretly taken it from the Muggle water pipe. Dad took a long time to get it!" George knew the situation at home, but he didn't know much about Hogwarts.
"I remember your house is quite far from Ottery-St. Catchpole, right?"
"Not very far, just outside Ottery-St. Catchpole."
"I thought a wizard had invented some magical faucet." Albert curled his lips.
"You don't know either."
The twins were very surprised. In their eyes, Albert knew almost everything.
Albert didn't know what was going on at Hogwarts. He actually asked other professors, but the professors in the school didn't know either. They only knew that the system had been used since the 18th century.
As for what to do if it breaks?
Of course, it is to use spells to repair it. It can only be said that magic is so wonderful!
After connecting the wires, Albert pressed the switch next to it, and the solar-powered water pump started working.
"Muggles can always create incredible things." George looked at the switch and sighed softly, "This is much more convenient than using magic."
"It's just for use now. If you want to use this thing stably, you have to solve a lot of problems." Albert waved his wand, conjured up several large brushes out of thin air, and handed them to Fred and George next to him.
When the two saw what Albert handed over, the expressions on their faces collapsed instantly.
"What is this?" George asked tentatively.
"Of course, clean up the water tower first, otherwise, do you dare to drink the water in it?" Albert signaled that it could start.
"What about you?"
"Of course I'm going to check if there's any problem with the water tower." Albert waved his hand and turned away, leaving the Weasley twins in a daze.
