Severus, on the other side, received Yolanda's letter, and when he opened it, he almost lost his joy.

Great, so that there was a place to do his homework, at home Dad was not allowed to show up the slightest magic-related thing, his textbook, the crucible had been thrown into the cellar, and it was good that Severus had already strapped his wand to his calf before he went home to avoid the fate of being pruned.

Severus walked to the door of Stewart's house with the key, and when he opened the door, he saw that there was no dust in the house, and it seemed that Effie often came back to clean it.

On the coffee table in the living room was a pair of potion making tools, as well as the materials for making zuò potions, and it seemed that Yolanda had prepared it for herself.

With the shelter of Stuart's house, Severus's summer vacation was much easier, he soaked in the Stuart family's house almost all day long, and he quickly boiled up the few potions business that Yulanda asked him to give, because there was no owl relationship, he asked Yolanda's allision to send the potion to the buyer in Diagon Alley, and for the first time he got a commission, Severus was really excited, and for the first time, he felt that life in the Muggle world was not so difficult.

Although he inevitably had to go back to face his drunken and scolding father every day, he felt indescribable satisfaction at the thought of finding peace in the Stuart family house the next day, not having to be afraid, and being free to do magic homework, make potions, and read books about magic.

School was about to start, Severus took the money from boiling potions, and was a little hesitant in his heart, whether to give the money to his mother, if he gave it to his mother, he would definitely be searched out by the man to buy alcohol in less than half a day, and then come back to punch and kick his mother after he got drunk; But his mother's clothes haven't been changed for several years, and he really wants to use the money to make his mother's life easier.

School started, according to the old rules, it was Erin who sent Severus to Diagon Alley, and when he left, Severus handed a small key to Erin, "Mom, this is my key in Gringotts, I specially asked the goblin to change it for a copper key, which contains a little money I made from making potions, if the family is nervous, you can take it out of it and make up for it, don't be found by him." ”

Severus never called the man dad behind his back, just "him"

instead.

Erin took the little bronze key, and didn't know what to say, as a mother, she had never fulfilled her obligations as a mother, and now she actually asked Severus, a twelve-year-old child, to take care of the family.

"Seaver......

Severus didn't wait for Erin to finish speaking, so he hurriedly dropped a sentence, "I'm leaving, you go back, I can buy school supplies or something." ”

Turning his head away, he didn't dare to look back, he didn't dare to look at the broken light in his mother's eyes, which was between pain and emotion.

It seems to be a little hope leaking out of the abyss of despair, but Severus can't tell whether he will go to hope or despair between the two.

Mother is always like this, always trapped by the sweetness in the sea of bitterness, as if it is this kind of light that traps her whole life.
