Chapter 064: Family

"Family?" Walburga laughed maniacally again, "If you really think about your family, you wouldn't have been stubborn and single-mindedly against your family, even your father. ”

"The family has fallen into such a situation today, haven't you regretted your original choice?" Sirius couldn't help but ask loudly.

"Slytherin never regrets their choice, they only make up for the damage they cause." Catherine suddenly spoke up, "Don't tell me you haven't heard that. ”

"Nope! Heard! Sirius' right eye jumped wildly a few times before he replied, "So I'm the other in the family." ”

"I'd rather live in regret than make amends." Narcissa scolded, apparently disappointed by her cousin's inaction over the past 12 years.

"Sicy, what are you doing outside? Come on in! Walburga suddenly greeted his niece with unusual enthusiasm, but ignored his son, "Are Lucius and Draco here too?" Let's all come in together! And Catherine! You're welcome, like your own home! Kecheli, get up and greet the guests. ”

The door was pulled open from the inside, and a much older Kecheli stepped out, his ears growing a lot of white hairs, apparently the dormancy of the past year had drained him a great deal of energy.

"Welcome to the Black family, Miss Catherine! Come in! Miss Sicy, Mr. Lucius, Master Draco, please come in! Kecheli bowed respectfully to the four Slytherins, but didn't notice the others at all, "The house hasn't been cleaned up for more than a year, so please wait in the foyer for a while." ”

"Kecheli, don't you save zΓ i when I do?" Sirius asked dissatisfied, and the aging house-elf slowly raised its head.

"Oh my God! Master Sirius! Kecheli exclaimed excitedly, bowing to Sirius, and muttering in a very low voice, "This nasty, ungrateful, obscene young master has the face to come back." Doesn't he know that he killed his master and broke the heart of his mistress? ”

Everyone looked at each other, then at Narcissa.

"After my aunt went crazy, Kecheli was also affected, especially when he began to talk to himself as he watched the people he had been waiting for pass away one by one." Narcissa said helplessly, she didn't expect that just after not seeing her for a year, Kecheli's problem would become more and more serious.

"Kechelli, I'm going in!" Sirius asked tentatively.

"Kecheli has served the noble Black family for the rest of his life and will not disobey the orders of any of the Blacks." Kecheli bowed again. The head was lowered and his nose was pressed to the ground, "The young master, who is not worthy of shining the shoes of the lady, actually wants to enter the old mansion of the Black family again, oh, my poor hostess!" What would he say if he saw the young master in the costume of Kechelli, how much the mistress hated him! How disappointing he wasβ€”"

"Alright, Kecheli, go clean up the house." Walburga's voice rang out again, and Kechelli turned and bowed behind the door. Then he snapped his fingers and disappeared from the hallway.

"Get in! Sirius! Walburga suddenly shouted.

Sirius hesitated for a moment before slowly entering the foyer, and a row of old-fashioned gas lamps on the wall lit up amid the "flutter flutter". Cast a flickering unreal glow.

The brilliant silver patterns on the walls of the foyer are completely gone, leaving only the gray wallpaper, the carpet has lost its original luster, and the portraits have become jet black. Even the velvet draperies beside Mrs. Black had become tattered, and her own appearance had become somewhat strange, except for the look on her face. Still full of indifference and pride.

"Sue me, why are you coming back?" Walburga glared at his son angrily, his fingers tangled together, as if he would jump up and break Sirius's neck the next moment, "I don't believe you're talking nonsense for the Black family, so be honest." ”

"It's obvious that you misunderstood." Sirius pursed her lips and snorted, "The reason I came back was because my godson needed a family! With that, he beckoned to the door, and Harry and Catherine looked at each other before slowly walking into the foyer.

"Your godson?" Walburga looked at Harry hesitantly, "James. Potter's miscellaneous-" When noticing Catherine following behind the dark-haired boy, she suddenly stopped cursing and changed her words, "Orphans? You're Catherineβ€”" She opened her mouth, but couldn't say more.

"I've been put under a secret spell." Catherine explained with a smile.

"The secret man must not be my stupid son!" Walbuga had no scruples about Sirius' feelings.

"It's Headmaster Dumbledore." Catherine suddenly said to Harry in snake language, "Fool, why don't you hurry up and please Mrs. Black, or do you really want to sleep on the streets with Sirius and Remus on Christmas?] 】

[Ahh Right! Harry hurriedly put on a cute smiling face that flattered his elders, but he confused the language again, [Lady Black, it's nice to meet you, I'm Harry. Potter, I heard Catherine say that my great-grandmother was Sirius's aunt, so should I call you cousin? 】

Walburga looked at Harry in disbelief, and the other portraits in the foyer that had been pretending to be dead widened in surprise, and Sirius shivered fiercely, and said to Harry and Catherine with great displeasure, "Why do you suddenly speak in snake language for no reason?" He still couldn't understand why his godchildren and goddaughters would use such vicious language that was inextricably linked to Slytherin.

"Sorry! I've always confused snake language with English. Harry hurriedly repeated what he had said in his native language, but Walburga paid no attention to what he was saying.

"Why do you know snake language?" Walbuga asked, her body rushing onto the canvas, as if trying to pounce on Harry.

"I don't know." Harry looked at his sister pleadingly.

"Professor Dumbledore suspects that the Mysteries left some abilities on the two children when they attacked the Potter house." Catherine pulled the principal out of the jacking cylinder.

"I see!" Walbu exhaled a long breath, "No wonder you have his mark on you." She looked at Catherine meaningfully.

The insider thought Walburga was referring to the forbidden spell, but Catherine thought she was talking about something else.

"No matter how you got this ability, the snake language is Salazar. A sign of a Slytherin descendant, soβ€”" Walburga suddenly straightened up and saluted solemnly, "The Black family always welcomes the Slytherin family, and you can stay as long as you want." The other portraits followed suit.

"Although we do have a relationship with Salazar. Slytherin is related by blood, but thank you so much for your generosity! Catherine respectfully saluted the elders of the Black family, and Harry hurriedly followed suit.

"Lady Black, may I ask Sirius and Lupin, can they stay too?" Harry asked with a wink of uneasiness.

"For your sake, yes, as long as they don't spoil the Blake family at will, or I'll make Kechelli throw them out into the street." Walburga glared at Sirius and Lupin, who was hiding behind the door, before smiling at Harry and Catherine, "And you do have to call me cousin." Probably because she hadn't smiled in a long time, her smile looked unusually awkward.

"Good afternoon! Cousin! Harry swallowed his saliva as he suddenly felt that Mrs. Black resembled a fairy tale witch who ate children.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Black! We regret that you can't fulfill your wish at this time. Catherine apologized, and Walburga hurriedly comforted.

"It's okay! Catherine! As long as you know it in your heart. Walburga's voice suddenly became a little stalky, "Kechelli! ”

Kecheli appeared in the foyer.

"Hurry up and clean up the two best rooms on the third floor, Harry and Catherine are going to live there from now on, you have to take good care of them," Walbuga paused for a moment before he said in an unusually stern tone, "they and Salazar. The descendants of Slytherin have good connections. ”

"Yes! Hostess! Kecheli glanced at Harry and Catherine in shock before replying, then immediately bowing to them, "Miss Catherine! Master Harry! Where's your luggage? I'll set up your room at once. ”

"Dobby!" Dobby, dressed in a butler's suit, appeared next to Catherine with a large pile of luggage, "Take my and Harry's luggage and go to the guest room on the third floor." ”

"Yes, Miss Catherine!" Dobby replied with a shrill voice, and then staggered up the stairs with a large pile of luggage to the shocked gaze of Cechelli and the portraits.

"I have a slight cleanliness fetish." Catherine smiled and explained, and Catherine glanced down at herself, then disappeared from the foyer with a sigh of surprise, and the portraits tugged at the corners of their mouths for a long time before they returned to normal.

"Sissy!" Walburga suddenly raised his voice, Lupin, who was blocking the door, hurriedly walked over to Sirius, and the Malfoys walked into the foyer, "Are you staying tonight?" ”

"Of course." Narcissa replied with a smile, "As long as Catherine doesn't mind." ”

"Of course I don't mind, it'sβ€”" Catherine was interrupted by Walburga before she could finish her sentence.

"That'll do." Walburga waved his hand at Catherine, "I'll tell Kechelli to tidy up the old mansion as much as possible, lest you don't even have a place to stay tonight." ”

"There is great power in numbers, so let's do it too!" As she spoke, Narcissa suddenly took Catherine's hand, "Let's go, let's go clean up the kitchen and prepare today's dinner by the way." ”

Catherine did not refuse, and was naturally pulled away by Narcissara, leaving the five men stunned in place, and when they looked at each other, a strange feeling immediately spread among them.

"Cissy and Catherine have gone to work, why are you still standing here stupidly?" As soon as Walburga spoke, the juniors immediately became "trembling", "Lucius, you and Draco go to the first floor; You two go clean up the second floor; Harry, you're a guest, go and rest first! "Her gentle appearance is more terrifying to minors than her swearing. (To be continued......)
