Chapter 779 Christmas Vacation (Sincere Thanks to Silver Alliance Leader Ai Ai)

( ) During the Christmas holiday, the Hogwarts Express traveled through the icy wilderness. The smoke from the red steam locomotive scattered on the white wilderness and mixed together.

"Pansy and Snape were talking quietly at the banquet, and they also mentioned Dumbledore's departure from school. They must be brewing some conspiracy." Harry sat in front of the ice-covered window and turned to Ron with certainty. said.

"I believe you Harry." Ginny, who was sitting next to Harry, held her boyfriend's hand.

Ron put his hands on his legs and leaned forward. Just as he was about to say something, his attention was attracted by the sound of Lavender Brown banging on the glass at the door of the box.

Lavender put his hands on the door frame, shook his head and breathed into the glass to refill the fog. Ron put his hands on the seat, sat up straight and watched Lavender's every move with a forced smile. .

Due to the cold weather, the breath formed a white mist on the glass. Lavender stretched out his finger and drew a shining heart penetrated by an arrow on the glass, with "r+l" written in the middle of the heart shape. Seeing that the fog was not so obvious, Lavender breathed again, making the heart shape he had just drawn more obvious. Then she said to Ron through the glass in an exaggerated mouth: "I miss you." Seeing that Ron mouthed something back to her but didn't mean it, Lavender turned and left.

"It's so cute." The atmosphere in the carriage was a little awkward. Harry opened his mouth to ease the atmosphere, but then Ginny twisted her around his waist, causing him to hiss and change his expression in pain.

Ron moved his lips to Harry's eyes with some distress, "She wants to kiss me all day long, and my lips have been kissed, look."

"That's what you say, I believe it." Harry leaned back, and Ron's shoulders were pushed back hard by Ginny, and he sat back in his seat.

"Ron, it's enough that you two always make out with no one else, regardless of the occasion." Ginny sneered.

"Don't think I didn't see you and Harry kissing." Ron muttered. Ginny's eyes widened and she raised her hand to hit her. Ron stretched out his hand to block it for a few times and then said, "Harry, you and Sirius will have sex early this year." Come to the Burrow." Ron, maintaining a defensive posture towards his sister, turned to invite Harry.

The next night, in the Black family mansion at 12 Grimmauld Place, northwest of London, England, a twenty-minute walk from King's Cross Station, in the dim restaurant, leftovers had been left on the table for an unknown number of days. The cold dinner plates flew one by one to the kitchen sink under Tonks' command. Water flowed out from the faucet, and a brush automatically cleaned the plates.

"I haven't been here for just a few days, and your place has become a mess again. Can't you persuade Sirius to allow Kreacher to come out of his broken cupboard to tidy up the house for you, instead of ordering him to stay in that place where no one else can see him? Why don't you let him come out and continue working for you." Tonks wrinkled her nose and stared at the greasy dishes in disgust.

"Believe me, I have tried to persuade you many times since I came back yesterday." Harry picked up a basket filled with a few pieces of dry bread, walked directly into the basement kitchen, and came to the other end of the room. He stopped in front of the cupboard, opened the cupboard door, looked inside with disgust, casually put the plate of food into the cupboard, then stood up, closed the cupboard with a bang, turned around and started using the pen. With the housework skills mastered by Aunt Ni, she skillfully helped herself and her godfather clean the room.

When Harry returned to the dining room after hearing the call that dinner was ready, new plates had been placed on the newly cleared table.

Tonks, who had recently begun to learn how to handle housework from Mrs. Molly for Lupin's sake, cooked a typical English dinner, a meat dish of roast beef and two vegetarian dishes as sides, and the infallible potatoes and overcooked ones. of broccoli - even by the standards of the British, who are accustomed to long-cooked carrots and broccoli, tonight's would have been overcooked.

But Harry's mind was not on the food. Thinking about the conversation he heard about Snape and Pansy, he kept cutting the food on his plate with a knife. Just when Harry was about to express his suspicions, Tonks' voice interrupted his draft: "Sirius, Molly invited us to spend Christmas at the Burrow. Why on earth don't you plan to go?" Tonks Si took off his apron and sat next to Lupine.

"Lupin told me that that bastard Allen doesn't plan to see me yet, but I asked Arthur to send a message to me before and he was unwilling..." Sirius picked up a piece of broccoli with the fork in his hand and put it in In his mouth, he muttered again, "Besides, Molly is too lenient."

"He doesn't want to see you, and it's useless for you to ask Arthur to send a message..." Lupine noticed his friend's expression, paused and changed his words, "It will take some time for the Mr. Skillful Hands you ordered to be delivered. Ma There are too many wizards and half-blood wizards, and you know, even many pure-blood families don’t have house elves anymore.”

"Almost no restaurants will be open on Christmas." As soon as Lupine finished speaking, Tonks continued.

The cute way she shook her head made Lupine couldn't help but rub her pink hair, and continued to persuade: "If you don't go to the Burrow with us for Christmas, do you want Harry to go hungry with you? ?”

"You guys take Harry there, I won't go." Sirius frowned and his tone became impatient.

Harry, Lupin and Tonks looked at each other and nodded, and said deliberately: "If you don't go, I won't go either."

"Okay, okay, I will go there with Harry then." Sirius scratched his disheveled hair, "I will bring the mandrake with me then and let the children have a nice meal." Hold it in your mouth.”

After helping her fiancé's friend clean the tableware after the meal, Tonks leaned into Lupin's arms and said, "It's time for us to go."

"So fast?" Harry pushed up his glasses, but Tonks and the others had already walked out of the door. Harry quickly followed and stood side by side with Sirius on the steps. What he wanted to say before could only be found later. .

Tonks and Lupine leaned closely together and waved goodbye to Harry and Sirius before disapparating with a hiss.

At the same time, the Harris Manor was brightly lit, and the Allen family stood at the door to see off the guests attending the Harris family party.

Ice and snow fell on the ground, and several carriages pulled by Thestrals stood quietly in the night. Those who could see them would notice that this creature, regarded as ominous by many people, had white, pupil-less eyes. Staring, described as terrifying. The Grindelwald loyalists who were recruited to join Harris boarded these carriages with the support of their children and grandchildren, and staggered away into the night. These wizards who supported their family heads to leave, As officials of the Ministry of Magic, they immediately took a wizard car driven by armed Auror guards, drove a certain distance on the road and then flew into the sky.

Some members of the Umbrella Company, new friends of the Slug Club, and some who were not too particular about decency chose to apparate directly home. There were also some wizards who liked to experience the lonely ride on a snowy night. Get on the broomstick.

When the last wizard left the Harris Manor, the Harrises, who were exhausted physically and mentally after a night of socializing, loosened their ties, took off their evening gowns, washed up and put on comfortable and loose clothes. Gathered in Harris Tower.

At this time, they are all members of the family. They can slump on the sofa regardless of their image, and they can drink warm tea and sit together as a family.

"Speaking of which, UU Reading www.uukａnshu.net, you have noticed that Percy Weasley has been shaking hands with people almost all night tonight. Once a wizard with status passes by his seat, he will shake hands again and again. If he stood up and bowed, he might have backache tomorrow." Daisy giggled as she hugged a pillow and crossed her legs on the sofa.

"He is surrounded by many harassing flies tonight." Xenophilius fiddled with a set of bright yellow anti-monster glasses and waved his hand in the void as if to drive away something.

"The third son of the Weasley family attaches too much importance to power and superstitious authority. He wants to be successful and pursues fame and fortune too much. However, he has not received the proper education in his family. Things have lost their sense of proportion, but in view of his father's contribution and importance to our umbrella company, I can't just invite Arthur but not his son." Owen leaned back.

Morgan le Fay Rozier Harris leaned next to her husband and sighed, "Speaking of it, three seniors have passed away this year. Fortunately, their heirs are all doing well in the Ministry of Magic. There is hope for reviving the family - because Grindelwald The days of oppression after Mr.’s fall are finally coming to an end.”

"Lunn, why are you so slow?" Daisy saw Lunn who had just entered the tower after apparation, and deliberately raised her voice to divert her mother's attention.
