"Is there any special news in the Daily Prophet today, you are smiling so happily. Silver looked at Hermione curiously. Hermione forced a smile and handed the newspaper to Silver, "Jack, just look at it. ”

Silver picked up the newspaper and read: "The Ministry of Magic staff wins the grand prize, Arthur Weasley, director of the Department for the Prohibition of Muggle Objects at the Ministry of Magic, has received the Galleon Award, the Daily Prophet's annual award. An elated Mr. Weasley told a reporter from the Daily Prophet: "We will spend this money on summer tours of Egypt." Our eldest son, Bill, is in Egypt working spell-breaking for the Gringotts Magic Bank. "The Weasleys will be in Egypt for a month. Come back before Hogwarts school starts. Currently, the Weasleys have five children attending school there.

"Oh, it's a great joy for the Weasleys. Silver smiled and looked at the newspaper photo: Mrs. Weasley was small and fat, while the balding Mr. Weasley was tall, and their six sons and one daughter all had fiery red heads (though they were not visible in this black-and-white photo). Ron is standing in the middle of this picture, tall and skinny, with his pet mouse Spotted standing on his shoulder and his arm around his sister Ginny.

"The Weasleys deserve this money, their family conditions really need to be improved, as a pure-blood wizard family, the Weasleys are really miserable enough to get to this point. Silver said, looking at the spots in the photo.

"By the way, Jack, why would the Weasleys, who are also pure-blood wizards, be so down?" asked Hermione.

Silver put down the newspaper and laughed, "Hermione, you're not right, the Weasleys aren't down. Silver continued to meet Hermione's surprised gaze, "The Weasleys are one of the most famous pure-blood wizarding families in the British wizarding world, this family is very large, if you count by population, the Weasleys are more numerous than my Silvers, Longbottom, and Malfoy combined. The Weasleys are very capable, uh, very reproductive. Silver paused, "You can see the Ron's family, they have five children, which is unimaginable in other pure-blood wizarding families, because generally speaking, wizarding families have two or three children at most. Some wizards mock the Weasleys for breeding faster than goblins, which is certainly an insult, but it's not unfounded. ”

"What does this have to do with the downfall of the Ron family?" Hermione still didn't seem to understand.

Silver had to patiently continue to explain: "You think, the wealth left by the ancestors is only so small, and there are so many Weasleys in the Weasley family, and there are fewer people in everyone's head. Ron's father, Arthur Weasley, was known for his love of Muggles and Muggle culture, which made him unlikable to the Weasleys, so he inherited little inheritance. The Ron family can only be said to be a branch of the Weasley family, and it is a relatively miserable branch, and it cannot be said that the entire Weasley family is down. ”

Hermione nodded. "I see. By the way, Silver, where have my mom and dad been, I haven't seen them in two days. Silver shrugged helplessly: "Uncle and aunt said that they wanted to make up for the regret of their wedding honeymoon in France, and they left two days ago, and asked me not to tell you." ”

Hermione waved her hand helplessly, "Forget it, regardless of them, when are we going back to England?" ”

"Next week, September 1st, we have to go to Diagon Alley a week early to get everything we need. Silver glanced at the school owl with the notice of reopening.

"Young master, there is an urgent shipment from the British headquarters. A burly man strode into the room.

Silver couldn't help but frown: "Billy, I told you to knock on the door when you come in." ”

"I'm sorry, young master, because this is urgent, I acted so recklessly. The big man bowed down and apologized.

"Forget it, there is a reason for it, and I can't blame you, you can help us prepare, and I will return to the UK next week. ”

"Yes, young master. The big man answered, and he walked out and closed the door.

"Jack, I can see you're a little disgusted with this Billy, why?" asked Hermione.

Silver said as he unpacked the urgent item, "It's not that I am disgusted, but I just don't like it." Billy Hairington was an American wizard, and he, uh, was a little special. He loves bodybuilding, building muscle, and is unusual in his orientation, and he has even made quite a few of these films in the Muggle world. Later, the American wizarding community thought that this kind of behavior was really indecent, so they ordered him to be forbidden to continue filming. He then moved to Europe, where he became the head of the Silver family's business in France. ”

"Oh my gosh. Silver opened the rush with a look of surprise. "What's wrong, Jack?" said Hermione.

"Harry Potter blew up his aunt. Silver smiled.

"What are you laughing at, that's a serious violation of discipline, and Harry will be expelled for it. ”

"No, Hermione. Harry Potter is a very special person, and even if he blows up his aunt, he will be fine. What's more, now there is this incident again. Silver handed the urgent mail to Hermione, "You'll see for yourself." ”

Hermione took the urgent letter and read: "Voldemort's henchman, Sirius Black, who betrayed the Potters, has successfully escaped from prison. Believed to be the most notorious of the prisoners in Azkaban Castle, Sirius Black remains unapprehended. Hermione looked at Silver in shock.

"That's right, Sirius Black, the criminal who betrayed the Potters and killed thirteen people with a single spell has escaped from prison. He'll be going to find Harry Potter. Hogwarts was undoubtedly the safest place to be at such times, and they wouldn't be expelling Harry. The news will be reported tomorrow, and soon the world will know that Harry Potter is in crisis. At this time, of course, no one cares about such a trivial matter as blowing up my aunt. ”

"Isn't Harry dangerous, then? ”

"Not necessarily, danger often comes from the most unexpected places. Silver picked up the Daily Prophet and looked at the photo of the Weasleys.
