"Tom, Tom." Paucus stood at the table with roast goose wings, and Tom was obviously looking at her in front of her, but he didn't know where to turn.

"Tom, do you want this?" She asked again.

Sitting on the other side, Red smiled and deliberately held the salt shaker and said, "Dad, do you want this?" As he spoke, he pushed the salt shaker into Tom's hand.

“…… No, I don't use that. Tom finally came to his senses, he frowned at the salt shaker, and then found the Boss in front of him, and the tray in her hand: "Only lamb chops will do...... Forget it, give me a piece. ”

Maybe because she had been standing in front of him with a plate for so long, he still grabbed a piece of roast goose wings.

Bao Si took the plate and turned it to Red, who immediately smiled and took two pieces down: "Thank you, Mom, this is so fragrant!" ”

This made Ross smile a little, and she took two pieces for herself before taking the rest back to the kitchen.

Every weekend, she likes to cook for her family, and she sets this day as a time for them to spend together. As for the elf Habitt, he is off today. Habitt wasn't used to taking vacations, but it was nice for Prith to let him play with the castle elves in the castle kitchen.

After a quiet lunch, no one could leave, and they had to move to the living room, where they sat in front of the fireplace and chatted over tea and dessert.

She is very attentive to family life, and she believes that only when we are together is a family, and if everyone only cares about themselves, even if they live in the same house, it is useless.

She brought the tea and said, "So, Rhett, what have you done this week?" ”

Conversations need topics, and there is no TV in the wizarding world, only radio. Neither Tom nor Red are interested in listening to radio shows, and even she doesn't like them. And it's not appropriate to discuss which celebrity has something to say, so every time Baosi can only stipulate that at this time, everyone needs to talk about what they have done this week.

Red shrugged and said, "Nothing special. I wrote two stories for the Daily Prophet, and the editor-in-chief wanted me to write more, but I didn't have the time. At school, I've only been teaching Potions this week, and I wonder if Professor Sgrahorn doesn't want to do it? He's been saying that all the time. ”

Pauss immediately asked, "Is that what he told you?" ”

"That's what he always said." Red wasn't interested in being a Potions professor, "The first two years were too young for me to be a professor right out of my class. Now that I'm twenty years old, Professor Sgollahhorn thinks the time has come. ”

Rose stirred the tea slowly, hesitantly, "If so, will you become the Head of Slytherin?" ”

Red was worried about this, and it seemed to him that Dumbledore would not agree to let a young man in his twenties become the Headmaster, but it seemed too foolish to refuse it. He was saying that if he were going to be Headmaster of Hogwarts, it would be normal to be Headmaster first, but a little bit more than he had imagined.

He didn't think he could become Minister of Magic before he was thirty years old, and he even thought he would be able to do it as soon as he graduated.

Pauche turned her head and said, "Tom, what do you think?" Tom? He was distracted again, and she wondered what he was thinking.

Tom reacted, took a sip of tea in disguise, and said, "...... Think about it first. ”

Paucus was tempted to ask, 'What to consider?' She suspected that Tom hadn't heard what they had just said. However, she was still kind enough not to dismantle him, and then took a sip of tea.

Instead, Red asked curiously, "Dad, what do you think I should consider?" ”

Tom had already remembered what they had just said, and although he was distracted, his ears were not closed. He glanced at his son, who did not forget to oppose him at this moment, and all fathers would feel that way, right? I am glad to have a son who looks more and more like me as he grows older, and sometimes I want to beat him hard!

"Of course, it's your position." Tom said sternly, like a father, "Maybe you're too young to have the self-confidence, so you might as well explain it to Professor Sgollahhorn sooner rather than later, and say that you don't have the confidence to take over his job at all, just like saying that you don't have the talent he thinks." ”

Knowing that this is a radical general, but Red is still fooled! He made up his mind to wait until Monday to tell Professor Sgollahhorn that he was willing to become a Potions professor! If there's another job waiting for him, he'll do it too!

As she watched the father and son meet again, she had to say in a mysterious tone, "Do you want to know what I've done this week?" ”

She looked at the father and son with expectant eyes.

Tom lowered his head first, looking away from the sparks, and Rhett seemed to swallow all the anger, turned his head and smiled at her, "Of course, Mom, tell me!" ”

"Oh, I found a little secret to peeling almonds!" Ross said excitedly!

Red waved his arm vigorously: "Great! Tell us about it! ”

So Bao Si talked about how to peel almonds well in the afternoon, and even took out a large bag of shelled almonds that she had bought, and took the two fathers and sons to peel a large jar of almonds.

- If you have so much energy, why don't you come and help her work?

I have long been accustomed to using a magic wand and the two fathers and sons peel the tips of their fingers are red, but these two people have good genetic brains, are smart and learned, and they can peel more than silk, so she thinks that she can take the two fathers and sons to peel pine nuts next week, which is small and laborious.

For a week, Tom was still an assistant professor, and Rose had to go to work in the medical wing every day, but something happened. Nurse Nanding of the medical wing is about to resign.

She'd been at Hogwarts for fifty years, and now that she's getting older, it's too much work for her. Her son also wanted her to quit her job and move in with him.

"I have a grandson and a granddaughter and they are so lovely!" Nurse Nanding showed her a photograph of two cute little children smiling in their parents' arms, both in black and white wizard photos.

After Nurse Nanding left, Hogwarts was in need of a nurse. Of course it wasn't possible, she didn't have a wand, she couldn't use magic.

Dumbledore advertised for another nurse.

But she thought of herself, and she wanted to quit too. Red is twenty years old, and she should retire too. In the past, she just wanted this family to live well, but now it doesn't seem to be so hard. Although she couldn't tell, she thought that Tom had lost his ambition, and more importantly that he could no longer be Voldemort - unless the wizards were all mixed up and would accept a half-breed who had betrayed their master.

His magic never recovered. Pauss believed that Dumbledore was credited here, that the old wizard had lived a very long life, and that maybe Tom would live well when he was to die.

So, nothing to worry about. So why doesn't she get some rest?

She was back at Dumbledore's office again.

"You're resigning?" Dumbledore looked as if she had just said she was divorcing Tom, "Why?" Baosi, even if Nurse Nanding leaves, you don't have to worry, the nurse will not hinder your work. ”

Paules smiled as if she was going to be a grandmother and said, "No, Dumbledore, I want to give myself a break." I should have been happy instead of working every day. ”

Dumbledore was shocked to find out that she was serious. Hogwarts professors rarely leave when they are still alive, most of them will be in the faculty for the rest of their lives, and almost all of them will die before they need to find the next professor.

"Oh, of course, that's good. But Rose, you can think about it for at least another twenty years, and it's not too late when Red's child is born. After saying that, Dumbledore said something that was not a compliment: "And you look very young." "It's like she's just getting married, and she doesn't grow old at all, except for the maturity left by the years!

“…… Did you take any potions? Dumbledore almost certainly asked, he had just thought of it, Muggles didn't have such abilities, so it could only be what potion she had taken. So who gave it to her? Tom? No, that's how she was before Tom came back.

By the way, Red seems to have traded his venom and flesh for some potions with Sgollahhorn when he first got Gigi of the basilisk.

- This child knows that he feels sorry for his mother at such a young age.

Dumbledore sighed happily, what a good boy!

"Well, Rose, it looks like I can't stop you. I will give you a generous pension and you will be free to enjoy your life! "But Tom and Red will continue to live in the castle, right?" ”

Dumbledore began to worry, he couldn't imagine what would have become of Hogwarts without the two of them, father and son.

This is also the question that Pauss is worried about: "Can they go to work every day?" I mean, I still want to be together as a family. ”

"Absolutely." Dumbledore was relieved.

Shortly after sending Paules away, Sgollahhorn came to Dumbledore.

He sat down with a big belly and said, "Old friend, I can't do such a heavy job anymore, otherwise my old bones will fall apart." ”

"Of course, Horace." Dumbledore poured him a cup of tea, "I thought about it the last time you said something, and I think like you said, Red is more than capable of the job. ”

He had thought it would take more time to convince Dumbledore, but he was happy and said, "Great! Albus, you're finally less old-fashioned. Like you did with Tom, you always think that young kids can't do a good job, but in fact they are better than us! So it's decided? How do you see from next semester onwards? ”

"It's all up to you." Dumbledore said with a smile.

At the Riddle dinner table, both Pauss and Red are excited.

"I have good news to announce!" Rose said.

"Is there good news for mom too?" Rhett was delighted.

"Dear, do you have that too?" Baosi immediately thought of what it was, and she urged, "Then you speak first." Tell me, good boy, can you be a professor? ”

Red couldn't hide his smugness and straightened his chest, and his eyebrows flew and said, "Yes!" In fact, from the next semester onwards, I will take over as Slytherin Dean in addition to the professors. ”

"Oh, you're going to do a good job!" Pauss became excited and hugged him.

"Thank you, Mom. What's your good news? ”

Paules looked around and saw that Tom looked the same as before, as if the Red news hadn't hit him.

- That's great.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We're moving!" ”

Rhett thinks he's misheard: "...... What the? He even plucked out his ears.

Tom was very calm: "When?" ”

His composure was something that Red couldn't help but admire.

"Next week." Baosi had already arranged it, even the house had been bought, the fireplace had been installed, and the Floo network had been connected. When the father and son were in class, she had everything ready.

Tom nodded and began to eat the dinner in front of him, only Red couldn't come back to his senses.

- When was this decided? No, why is it important? Why does mom suddenly want to move? Was it just a whim?

He was unwilling to look at his father in front of him.

- Did you discuss it?
