Chapter 119 Gap

Although the one who greeted them was no longer the tall and strong wizard who looked more reliable, this witch with pink hair was more to Lu Yunkai's liking. She was cheerful, straightforward, and always smiling.

And although she graduated the year Lu Yunkai and his friends entered Hogwarts, she was now an Auror in the Ministry of Magic, which reminded Lu Yunkai of the poor sister who was now taking care of herbs at home.

After learning that Lu Yunkai was familiar with Irene, the witch named Nymphadora Tonks instantly became close to him.

She even told Lu Yunkai in a casual chat that her pink hair was made by her own magic.

In this way, they talked and laughed all the way to the Leaky Cauldron, and they did not encounter any strange things or risks on the way, and then Harry took root in the bar again.

After seeing that Harry had settled everything, Lu Yunkai found an excuse to "go to Daphne's house" and went home.

The Leaky Cauldron is no longer the most secure place in England with strict defense during the summer vacation. Lu Yunkai felt that it was not worth taking risks here. Even if Black came to the Leaky Cauldron on impulse, and the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore could keep Harry safe, Lu Yunkai did not think he had the ability to get away safely.

In the divination class last week, Sybil predicted that she would have a bloody disaster recently...

And Lu Yunkai's fake excuse made Harry smile teasingly and with some gratitude.

He understood that the reason why Lu Yunkai did not leave the train station with Daphne was to tell him that it was a stupid thing to gamble his life to put Sirius in Azkaban again.

Hearing Harry's promise that "I will never take risks casually", Lu Yunkai smiled and took a handful of Floo powder and returned home.

He was stunned at first.

"Shirley!!"

Lu Yunkai shouted.

"Master, you're looking for me?"

"Where are the chairs in the hall?"

Lu Yunkai pointed to the hall that had become empty again and asked curiously.

Although he didn't like the layout of the Juyi Hall, it suddenly changed and he was a little bit unable to adapt.

"It was the witch named Irene." When talking about Irene, Xueli was a little angry, "She said I was randomly placing things here, and she also found some Muggle photos to tell me what an oriental-style courtyard looks like."

"... Yeah." Lu Yunkai only then noticed that the handrail stairs leading upstairs had also been replaced with a zigzag pattern decoration, and shelves and flower pots were placed at the end of the handrail...

Don't say it, it looks much more harmonious.

Although it's still not his favorite style.

"Master, I'm sorry, I didn't know what the oriental style looked like before..."

"I don't blame you." Lu Yunkai laughed, "What kind of apology are you saying!"

"But I spent a lot of money in vain..."

"It's okay. By the way, does Irene usually come to work on time?" Lu Yunkai changed the subject.

"Still very punctual." When talking about this, Xueli's tone seemed a little regretful.

Lu Yunkai was happy when he heard it. This little guy was hoping that she would be lazy, and then find a reason to persuade him to fire her!

It seems that it and Irene don't get along very well!

But this may not be a bad thing.

"Okay, you go down."

Lu Yunkai waved his hand and walked out of the hall. He stopped for a while in front of the quiet sea view that seemed to have no waves, and went around to the backyard.

The scenery here made Lu Yunkai stunned.

The front yard was obviously a withered late autumn scenery, and even a thin layer of snow was needed before winter, but in the backyard, it was still lush and green. The dense green and even the faint fragrance of flowers made Lu Yunkai a little confused about where he was.

When he first came here last winter, there was no such strange scenery!

"I love magic!" Lu Yunkai muttered in a low voice, and then he started to wander around the garden that belonged to him.

Various herbs that were not particularly rare (mainly to prevent Irene from asking him where he got the rare herb seeds from) were growing wildly. Some of them were recognizable by Lu Yunkai at a glance, and some of them required Lu Yunkai to reach out and touch the leaves to rely on the system to know what they were.

"Ah! Lu Yunkai! School is on vacation? Is the Halloween holiday so early this year?"

Just as Lu Yunkai squatted in front of a flowering bean pod that he had just learned how to harvest from Professor Sprout at school not long ago, a voice rang out.

"Sister Irene? You're here!"

Lu Yunkai looked up and was stunned.

Irene, wearing a straw hat and a big smile on her face... was completely different from the fake-smiling girl sitting at the front desk during the previous horror tour of Diagon Alley.

She seemed more beautiful.

"Yes! These days I'm pruning the wild mistletoe on the oak tree. Just a few days ago I heard someone was collecting mistletoe, you can sell it when I'm done." Irene smiled and pointed to a row of tall trees at the edge of the yard in the distance, "Your place is really amazing, it can grow so much mistletoe without anyone taking care of it."

"...Thank you for your hard work." Seeing Irene's expression, Lu Yunkai couldn't help but laugh, "Just sell it! The income will be my bonus to you."

"That's not okay! You gave me such a high salary and asked me to do such an interesting job. How can I have the nerve to earn your kind of money again!" Eileen smiled and shook her head. "If you don't have time, I'll sell it later." After it falls, use the money to buy some Moon Chi Beast manure! There are some very rare herbs in the seeds you gave me, and it won’t hurt if you use some good fertilizer.”

"Well..." Lu Yunkai didn't know how to answer such words.

rare? That's because you don't know what seeds I withheld...

"Speaking of which, what kind of grass are these plants of yours? I've never seen them, and you didn't tell me what kind of seeds they are. I don't even know how to take care of them." Irene seemed to have remembered something, and pulled Lu Yunkai When he came to a field, he pointed to a few vigorously growing herbs and asked Lu Yunkai.

"...forgettable grass." Lu Yunkai took a look and replied with a smile.

He would never forget this herb in his life, and it was also the most precious of all the seeds he gave to Irene.

"Ah?? This is the forget grass??" Erin's eyes suddenly widened, "Are you sure? You weren't cheated by the person who sold you the seeds, right? Professor Sprout wanted to get one at the beginning. Forgetfulness, I’ve searched all over England and can’t find it!”

"Sure!"

"Then... you are rich!" Erin glanced at the forget grass again, her eyes full of envy, "You can sell one to Professor Sprout, God knows how much she will spend..."

"I was just about to tell you this! Contact Professor Sprout and tell him that you found something that might be the forget grass." Lu Yun smiled and shook his head, "It's not convenient for me to tell her directly. "

"What's the inconvenience of this? Professor Sprout will definitely not treat you badly!"

"That's what I'm afraid of! Professor Sprout is my great benefactor! I can't sell it too expensively." Lu Yunkai put away his smile and said seriously, "If she hadn't gone to that shabby beer hall to find the I, God knows what I am like now.”

"Then you can give one as a gift... Do you want me to give it to you?"

After two years of social beating after graduation, Irene is no longer the innocent girl she was when she graduated.

To give away such a precious and rare thing directly, even if Lu Yunkai sincerely wanted to repay Sprout, she would probably not accept it easily because of her kind heart, right? Maybe even more money will be given specifically, which will make it even more embarrassing.

It's better to let myself, a graduated student, give it to her with the excuse of "I don't know if it's true, maybe you can use it to study it"!

"Yes!" Lu Yunkai was still very serious, "I have planned this matter for a long time, but I have never found the right person to help. Since you are also familiar with Sister Aileen, I will leave this matter to you. ”

"That doesn't mean I'm using your things to sell favors?" Eileen felt a little embarrassed.

"When Professor Sprout first came to see me, she didn't expect me to remember her kindness! Even if I repay her kindness, I don't have to ask her to know that I did it!" Lu Yunkai smiled.

"...You are really a kind person!" Irene sighed softly, "But if you do this, you will lose a lot of money, right? This kind of thing is definitely not cheap."

"It's okay. I'll just sell the remaining ones at a higher price." Lu Yunkai glanced at the forget grass trees nearby.

Is it expensive? well enough! All seeds have the same price, five gold galleons an ounce...

"Amnesia grass is not allowed to be traded publicly." Irene reminded Lu Yunkai, "Boss Giggs will definitely not dare to buy it."

"It doesn't matter, I have other sales methods."

"oh?"

"Pig's Head Bar..."

"That's true." After hearing the familiar place name, Irene's face showed a touch of nostalgia, "Then you can sell it next summer!"

"It won't take until next summer to mature, right? If it has already produced seeds by then, the medicinal effect will be gone... I don't plan to plant it on a large scale to make myself unhappy." Lu Yunkai shook his head quickly.

After all, this thing is controlled by the Ministry of Magic. You secretly get a few plants for private use and sale, but they are too lazy to care. They really want to get them to be grown and sold in bulk...

"How do you know that forgetfulness grass has no medicinal effect?" Eileen was stunned.

"...That's what the person who sold me the seeds said."

The system says so, and it’s impossible for me to tell you.

"That's it! Then I'll harvest it when it blooms, and then..."

"Let's do this!" Lu Yunkai interrupted Irene, "When it starts to bloom, you can get it out of the ground, and then help me take it to the Pig's Head Bar to sell it!"

"That's okay." Erin nodded, "Anyway, Zabini Magic Items Store is closed, and I was just about to tell you about my salary..."

"Huh? Mrs. Zabini's shop is closed?? When did it happen? Why didn't I know?"

Lu Yunkai was stunned when he heard this.

Didn’t she claim that with this store, she would not have to rely on marriage to make money? Now that my husband is dead, the store is closed?

What's the meaning?
