Chapter 2 Dinner

A huge flying motorcycle landed outside the manor, and the elf hurried over to greet the uninvited guest, and the Count could already guess who it was when he looked at the huge body like a Christmas tree. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Hagrid got up from the ground in embarrassment and muttered: "Isn't this damn motorcycle having another problem, I wouldn't have been greedy for that cheap if I knew it."

This is not because of the problem with the Higer Motorcycle, but because the manor has all kinds of defensive magic attached to it, such as broomsticks, which cannot land in the manor.

Earl Lee stood outside the house, hugging Hagrid warmly, Xie An stood aside boredly, he didn't know who this ugly-looking man was, and he was not interested in the rest of the wizarding world, but his mother's request made Xie An unable to refuse, so he had to greet this ugly messenger who was about the same as those Yellow Turban wrestlers with his father.

"A person with such a character can't be a big man, why would the Earl welcome such a person?" Xie An looked at Hagrid with a small question in his heart.

"Dear Hagrid, I'm sorry to have brought some instructions from Mr. Dumbledore this time, Dumbledore is always polite, and every time he bothers you to run, in fact, some small things can be brought by an owl completely, so I have to trouble you to run. The Earl said with a smile on his face.

"It turned out to be a messenger, hmph, the earl is really..."Xie An just complained in his heart, and suddenly remembered the back of the master greeting the messenger of that person, what kind of politeness, like that... Xie An suddenly felt a little sour in his nose, and everything became tasteless.

Hagrid, who was brought by the shrewd earl with a bunch of tall hats, gave Dumbledore's letter to the earl in a daze, although the half-blood giant had tried hard to remind himself not to be confused by the earl, but every time he came to Lee's manor, Hagrid still had an urge to be moved, and Lee was the only nobleman who looked up to a half-blood giant like himself.

Watching her father bring Hagrid to the living room, the Countess found that her baby seemed to have no notice that a giant had just arrived at her home, and the Countess squatted down and gently stroked her son's black hair: "Rubeus Hagrid is the caretaker of Hogwarts and a confidant of Dumbledore, Andy is going to Hogwarts school soon, and he will meet him again soon, don't you like him?"

Hearing the Countess's soft voice, although this Western beauty has never been able to understand her son, her true feelings are an invincible weapon, and her rock-solid heart cannot refuse.

"No, Mom. I'm just curious why he's so big. In desperation, Xie An had no choice but to pretend to be a child.

Hearing her son's rare children's question, the Countess was instantly much happier, "Hagrid's mother is a giant, and I heard that before the rise of the Dark Lord, giants lived with wizards in the north..."

One early summer morning, just after a light rain, a rainbow visible to the naked eye hung in the sky, and the air was filled with the rich scent of earth and flowers. Andrew Lee is holding a large bound thick book, what he needs most now is a lot of knowledge, a lot of books to supplement his understanding of magic and also develop the magic in his body, Andy Shi Ran walked into the restaurant, maybe time is the best healing medicine, Xie An has slowly learned to forget recently.

"Ah, dear Andy, you're here!" Count Lee greeted happily, waving the big envelope, "Guess what!" Xie An glanced at the envelope, he didn't need a second glance, he had already seen many letters from Dumbledore, and it would be too strange if he didn't know the coat of arms surrounding the lion, snake, eagle and badger.

"What does Dumbledore's letter say?" asked Shayne calmly.

"Son, this is not an ordinary letter, it is by no means different from the previous trivia of Dumbledore, this is an extremely important letter" The Count couldn't contain his excitement and waved the letter in his hand.

Andy replied with a smile; Dear Dad, this must be the acceptance letter you have been waiting for for a long time, right?" Andy really didn't lie about this, the Li family has only been exposed to the wizarding world in recent generations, Earl Li's great-grandfather was already an old man when he knew about the wizarding world, and his grandfather and father were already past the age of going to Hogwarts, originally Earl Lee's father hoped that Earl Lee could become the first Hogwarts student in the family, but unfortunately although Lee was shrewd and capable, his magical talent was really not good, and he only went to a second-rate magic school.

Now as a famous family in the wizarding world, there is not a single Hogwarts graduate, which is really a stain, which makes this Lord Earl, who is accustomed to storms, extremely excited when he receives this letter.

"Yes child," Lady Alice Lee interjected with a smile, "you're old enough to go to school, and school is going to start on June 1 this year." It's the same time when my mother went to school, and before you know it, you're going to go to school there. "The Countess is a true Hogwarts graduate.

"So, today we have arranged to go shopping in Diagon Alley, how about it, kid?" the excited Earl Lee snapped his fingers, "Victor, Victor doesn't need to prepare lunch today, he will come with us later." ”

"Yes, sir!" Victor asked politely, as two house-elves in clean pillowcases appeared, "What else do you need to prepare?" asked Victor politely.

"Oh, you don't need to prepare anything" Andy couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the Earl, who had always been steady and shrewd, was so excited and infected with this happiness. The Countess blinked, "Maybe you can prepare a bigger box, I don't think you'll have a lot to buy." ”

After breakfast, Earl Lee took his wife and Andy out to the public transfiguration area of Diagon Alley, in a way, you can understand it as a bus stop where you often take the bus, yes, you can't just apparilate in a place where there are many people, in case you hit other people, it can easily cause injury.

As soon as Andy reached the ground, he wanted to vomit, and his body seemed to be squeezed by a powerful force, twisting and suffocating, which was similar to the feeling of a direct hit by an energy shockwave. Earl Li patted his son and said, "Now that you feel the illusion for the first time, you will gradually get used to this feeling in the future." Fortunately, the feeling of dizziness on the battlefield had already made Xie An adapt to this discomfort in advance, and after frowning slightly, he couldn't help but hold the countess's hand.

"Honey, maybe let's take little Andy to the robes shop first, he needs a few new school uniforms now. Soon the family of three left the public visible area and walked down the cobblestone path to one of the busiest shops in Diagon Lane----- Mrs. Morkin's robes shop.

Madame Morkin's Gown Shop has a big and ever-changing advertisement - 70% off Hogwarts robes for the new semester discount season!

Entering the store, there was already a little elf wearing a pink pillowcase flying over, and seeing that it was Count Li's family, the elf smiled even sweeter: "Welcome to our store, Lord Count Li..."

When the store manager heard that it was the family of Earl Li, the big customer, he hurriedly came from behind to greet him.

Andy is no stranger to the store, he has bought countless clothes here since he was a child, this store seems to be a very trendy store, every time he comes, the decoration style always changes, and the main body of the season is very fitting. This time, it seems to be the style of the opening season, the college robe is placed in the most conspicuous position, and the price does not seem expensive, fully considering the needs and abilities of students.

Although, most of Xie An's clothes are specially made by ordinary dressmakers, and he rarely buys these in bulk.

"Ah, long time no see, little Andy, dear Earl and Lady Lee, good day. A middle-aged witch walked up to her, smiling her sunny smile at Andy and the Countess.

"Good day, Lady Morkin. Andy bowed slightly, and his manners made it impossible to find fault with it, "I'm here today to order a few Hogwarts uniforms, I'm tired." ”

"Ah, little Andy is going to Hogwarts too, time is really flying, little Andy, who was originally a little bean, has grown so big all of a sudden" Lady Morkin waved her wand. A few tape measures bounced off the shelves and measured him up and down, and a few pins whizzed through the air, striking the right size, "I still think that the Countess and I were studying at Hogwarts not long ago, and in a blink of an eye, your children will also go to school." ”

"Julie, you are too outward, just call me Alice, you too, you only know that you are busy alone, when to find a suitable one. ”

"Alice, it's not like you don't know, since he joined that organization, there has been no peace in our house, and now that I finally relied on God's luck to defeat the Dark Lord, everyone has calmed down, and I want to enjoy a few more days like this. Watching the countess chatting with her former best friend about family life, Xie An looked out of the window boredly. The Earl sat on the sofa and drank his tea, and by the way picked up today's Daily Prophet to read with relish.

The afternoon sun casts through the pointed roofs of Diagon Alley, and the sky is blue before being washed by the rain. The sunlight glows the windows golden. The magnificent robe displayed in the window reflected a colorful light, and this beautiful robe must have added magic to it, otherwise it would not be so beautiful. Xie Anxin thought boredly. Just as he was about to see if his robe was ready, outside the window, another child was already attracted by the colorful robe.

It was a little boy, with messy black hair and a little pale face, clear whites of the eyes dotted with brown pupils but covered by a pair of small round eyes covered with duct tape, and the slightly dirty eye pieces were being smeared with by the colorful robes at this time. Xie An had no idea who this person was or what was special. In all fairness, even if Xie An knew the story of this little child, he would only think that it was a story of coincidence and luck.

Xie An looked at the nerd until he made up his mind and pushed the door in, and then he returned to the sofa next to the earl and sat down.

The little boy politely said, "Hello, I want to customize a few sets of school uniforms." ”

"Ah, another freshman?" Lady Mockin laughed, not knowing that it was Harry Potter. A savior who was protected by his mother's sacrifice of her own life.

The perceptive Lord Earl realized something for the first time, and put aside the Daily Prophet: "Boy, what is your name, you look familiar." ”

Harry was subtly a little panicked when he saw the Earl with an Oriental face, after all, the bad childhood in his uncle's house had left too many bad memories for this child.

"My name is Harry Potter. Even though it was only a dry sentence, it had already attracted the attention of everyone in the store.

Sure enough, Lord Earl's heart blossomed, if Andy could maintain a good relationship with this lucky boy, the Li family would definitely be able to achieve greater fame in the wizarding world in the future. The Earl, who had made up his mind in an instant, greeted Harry warmly. They were having a good chat with the Countess, and several ladies also looked at Harry. Unexpectedly met a savior, which made Xie An's itinerary change dramatically.

How could the young Harry Potter resist the old fritter methods of Lord Earl, and soon became a classmate and friend of Lord Earl's son, although Xie An didn't show that he cared, where would the Earl, who was used to his son's arrogant personality, care about these details.

After a few days of warmly inviting Harry to stay at his manor as Andy's classmate, Harry's temporary guardian, Hagrid, appeared. The Earl, who discovered that his old acquaintance Hagrid was playing the role of guardian at this time, was even more overjoyed, and wanted to get Harry from Hagrid to his house right now.

After the Earl again asked Harry to stay at his Hogwarts classmates' home, Lee Manor, for a few days, the honest Hagrid replied honestly, "Dumbledore wants Harry to stay where he deserves, instead of getting in touch with the wizarding world sooner." ”

Hearing such an answer, Lord Count was slightly disappointed in his heart, but fortunately, the honest Hagrid was still very affectionate, and after muttering a few words, Hagrid suddenly said: "But I don't think having dinner together is considered to be in contact with the wizarding world, what do you think, Lord Earl?"

"Of course, of course, you're absolutely right. Kvera, Victor, go back first, and prepare the sumniest supper, for I will feast the boy who will not die!" replied the Earl.

"There are four houses at Hogwarts, Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff. Each of these four houses has its own characteristics and outstanding people, but in my experience, which house you get into depends most on your personality and your own choices, and in general, it is about the same as your parents. Hagrid ate as he introduced the school Shea and Harry were going to.

Harry had never been in contact with wizards before, and Shea was completely uninterested in them.

"Oh, I don't even know where my parents graduated. Harry said dejectedly, "My uncle and aunt are Muggles, and I've never heard them talk about anything about magic, by the way, Hagrid, can you tell me that my parents are from that house?"

"Gryffindor, of course Gryffindor, full of courage! I know a little bit about your parents," the Earl said kindly to Harry, as if he had not noticed Hagrid's rampant eating.

"Yes, Lord Earl, know my parents, and are you a student at Hogwarts?" asked Harry hurriedly.

The Earl was stunned for a moment, slightly embarrassed, and seeing her husband's embarrassment, the Countess smiled lightly: "Hogwarts is a very large school, just like Hagrid said, there are four houses there, and many classmates may not know each other. I was at Ravenclaw College, and I wasn't a classmate of your parents, but I had never heard of your parents until they did that big thing. ”

Lord Earl glanced at his wife gratefully, and then said, "Andy is going to Hogwarts soon, and I hope you can be best friends, preferably in the same house." ”

The Countess smiled, "My lord, I'm afraid your wish is going to be frustrated, Harry is likely to be a Gryffindor like his parents, and as for our Andy, it's most likely like me." ”

"Haha, isn't it? That's not bad, after all, Ravenclaw is the most beautiful college, the combination of intellect and beauty, is the best spouse that all men dream of, son, it's not bad that you can get Ravenclaw, haha. ”

Harry was also infected by the relaxed atmosphere at the table, and laughed.
