Mrs. Weasley looked at the concert tickets in her hand with mixed feelings, although she was financially well-off, she was still reluctant to let her husband spend money on this kind of personal hobby that was not helpful to the family, and she thought that it would be good to wait to watch the broadcast on TV, but she didn't expect Alan to give her so many tickets, or a VIP area at a fixed time.

After settling down, Mrs. Weasley suddenly raised her head, glanced at her husband beside her gently, closed the box, and pushed it back to Alan, "Alan, thank you, but this gift is too expensive for me to accept." ”

"It's nothing, Mrs. Weasley, I didn't spend any money on these tickets, my sister-in-law Fleur had something to ask Ms. Warbeck for some information, and then they got along well, Fleur wanted to give her show more time on TV, and Ms. Warbeck took the internal tickets for her concert to my family, but my family couldn't watch so many shows... Also, I think Cetina would be more willing to see her real fans enjoy her performances. Alan didn't take the gift box back, and sincerely persuaded Mrs. Weasley to accept the gift - but Alan was a little puzzled that he had given some tickets when he went to his father-in-law's house just now, but he didn't know why the other party's expression didn't look very happy...

"Molly, take it, thank you Alan. Arthur had secretly decided that he would have to be more attentive to his work at the Umbrella Company in remodelling Muggle items, so as to live up to the gifts that Alan had carefully prepared. At the beginning, because his wife was worried about financial reasons, he had to transfer the two tickets, which made Arthur full of debt to his wife, and saw Molly happy to accept the gift when he heard his words, Arthur was a little sad, but the middle-aged man immediately cleaned up his mood and beckoned Bill, who had never met with Allen, to come over and introduce him to Allen.

Percy came to his father's side faster, leaned forward and stretched out his hand: "Professor Harris, I'm so glad to see you." Percy's attitude towards Alan at this time was more enthusiastic than before, and he didn't dare to slack off when he attended the Harris family's banquet before and saw some of the power behind the other party.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, my father said you are very capable, intelligent, and promising at the Ministry of Magic. Alan pulled it out of his belt bag and handed Percy a gift as well

Alan only embellished what his father had said, and Percy did have some talents, and he was Mrs. Weasley's proudest son - although he was often ridiculed by his younger brothers for his rigid and ambitious words and actions, and was often imitated by some of his classmates who didn't like him at school.

However, when Ginny was affected by the Mystery's Diary during the second-year Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, Percy was the only one of her four older brothers in the school who noticed that something was wrong and tried to give Ginny medicine to take care of her. It's just that now his cleverness is used to climb power, but for the sake of his father Arthur's face, his future is still good.

Percy, who was flattered to receive the gift, was so excited that he was restless, and leaned forward and almost bowed. "Oh, what did the minister say, but I still have a lot to learn. By the way, Professor Harris, would you like a cup of tea?"

"Oh, thank you, Percy" Alan looked at Percy's high spirits, and raised his head to make tea with his own hands, as if he had received the highest honor, and smiled in his heart, this Percy did not manage his emotions well, and he was easy to behave at a loss.

The twin brothers, who had happily planned to come over to say hello, had red ears at this time, and they really couldn't get used to Percy's gesture.

"Bill, come here. Arthur pointed to Bill, "Alan, this is my eldest son, William Arthur Weasley. Mr. Weasley had long been aware of Percy's shortcomings, but the boy looked down on himself and didn't care about his teachings.

"Hello, Professor Alan Harris. "His long red hair is combed into a ponytail, he wears an earring on his ear, a small fan-like thing hanging from it, and his clothes that don't go out of place even if he goes to a rock concert, the whole person gives people the feeling that he has overdone his personality...

It's just that Alan didn't know how to call him after hearing Arthur's introduction, he always thought that the other party's name was Bill, and his family called him that when they talked about him, but he didn't expect his real name to be William.

"Just call me Bill. Seeing Allen's embarrassment, Bill smiled frankly.

Compared to Percy, Bill's confident and easy-going temperament like Albert easily made Alan have a good impression of him, and sure enough, the eldest sons in the family could easily find some similarities.

After a few pleasantries, Alan divided the gifts he had brought with everyone before taking a seat on a couch across the fireplace.

Near the corner of the stairs in the distance, Ron sat on the steps and opened the gift that Eren had given him, a Hogwarts-style wizarding robe was neatly stacked in the box, he picked up the attached card, glanced at it and put it aside, his hand touched the wizarding robe, unlike any wizarding robe he had worn before, this material was definitely not an ordinary fabric, soft and comfortable.

Ginny leaned in and picked up the card that Ron had just put back in the box, "Self-ironing and self-repairing wizard robes with thermostats, luxury items from Lady Morkin's shop." "It's just that Ginny doesn't envy it very much, the uniform issued to them by Professor Harris in the ancient magic class is not only more elegant, but also more powerful than it, this wizard robe is just a thermostatic function added to the wizard robe used by ordinary students, but the materials are more advanced, and Professor Harris's special ancient magic class protective robe is completely incomparable.

Recalling the practical gifts that Alan had given her every Christmas that would have allowed her to avoid using too many second-hand items in front of her classmates, Ginny silently put down the card, she looked at Ron and shook her head disapprovingly and said, "You're always jealous of Professor Harris, and you can't help but speak ill of him, now look... How Eren is to you. ”

Ron's ears were red, but this time he didn't refute it, he held the wizard's robe in a daze, such an expensive gift, what kind of gift do you get in return, even if the family is rich, but his pocket money is still not much, plus the Christmas gifts he bought for Harry and them before, the pocket money is almost gone.

Ron had never expected Alan to give him a Christmas present this year, he hadn't prepared anything for each other for several years, and he hadn't set aside any pocket money at all.

Sirius, who was watching coldly with his arms in his arms, saw Molly and Ron's reactions after receiving the gifts, recalled his own attitude when he had a good relationship with each other before, and couldn't help but float a sentence from between his teeth: "As long as he wants, he is really a charming spirit who is very good at pleasing people." ”

By the fireplace, the light of the jumping fire reflected on the faces of Allen, who were sitting around the fireplace, and after a few pleasantries, Alan picked up a pie and took a bite, looking at the silent boy of the Great Disaster, "Harry, why are you so silent tonight? This is not like you." ”

"I... 's mouth contains... Mandrake leaves—" Harry tried to push the leaf to the side with his tongue to make his words clear, and the stuff in his mouth made him speak cautiously, for fear of biting or swallowing it if he was not careful.

"It turns out that you are preparing for the transformation of the Animagus, and it is not difficult to say that the leaves containing mandrakes are not difficult, but it is relatively long, and it is indeed not easy to persevere. Alan suddenly, "Remember to tell Hermione when the time comes, you must know her and her Thunderbird pet, and Hermione will be happy to create the storm weather you need for your first Animagus transformation." ”

Harry nodded repeatedly, in this short period of time, he had already experienced how inconvenient the extra leaf in his mouth had caused his life, and he had no confidence at the thought of holding on for so long and all kinds of harsh conditions.

"Don't be afraid to get used to it at first, but soon you'll find a way to eat and talk without breaking it or swallowing it. Don't worry, this will definitely be proficient before the end of the holidays. Alan reassured that although the process was indeed a little difficult at first, it would be much better as soon as you got used to it.

Allen's reassurance not only soothed Harry, but also benefited Ron and Ginny, who overheard their conversation at the staircase, and no matter what Ron thought of Alan, he also admitted that there was probably no one in the world who had a better say in the transformation of Animagus than Erlen, and that many wizards related to the Harris family's umbrella company had succeeded in transforming - although he had previously resented the other party's teaching that Draco also transformed into Animagus.

"But for the time being, you can only use spells to clean your teeth, and the Muggle tooth cleaning supplies that Hermione gave you can't use, otherwise the ingredients in them will react with mandrake leaves. Alan stirred up the atmosphere in a relaxed tone again, "Don't ask me what exactly happened, and don't ask Hermione, she won't let me tell anyone else, or she'll get me in trouble." ”

It's okay not to mention it, but now even Tonks came over unconsciously, and her hair had changed color curiously.

"Alan, I have something I want to talk to you about privately, let's go for a walk in the garden. Lupin, who was sitting on the side, suddenly turned to Alan and invited, "This will also prevent Donk... Avoid kids... Ask about Hermione's accident. ”

Lupin, who had just been taught by Arthur, changed his words a little awkwardly.

"Just right, you can send that poor goblin back as well. Arthur pointed to the ugly garden goblin on the Christmas tree.
