Chapter 2 He's a Child
Bang.
The door to the study was suddenly opened.
Lucius immediately shut up.
Draco Malfoy's head cautiously poked in.
He looked at the woman in the room and smiled: "Mom, don't tell me when you came back!" ”
Before Narcissa could say anything, Lucius said sternly, "Draco, didn't I tell you?"
Don't just come into my study!
And, when you enter someone's room, remember to knock!
What about your etiquette?
I went to Hogwarts for a year and lost it all? ”
Draco shrank in fear, ready to exit the room and knock again.
But Narcissa quickly wiped the tears from her face and said softly, "Alright, dear, Draco is still a child!" ”
Narcissa beckoned, and Draco ran over with a grin and sat down next to the woman.
Narcissa rubbed Draco's head indulgently, messing up his carefully groomed hair.
Lucius looked at his son with a headache, blindly spoiling is definitely not a good way to educate, especially for a family like theirs.
But Narcissa is stubborn in this regard.
"Mom, what did you come back from?" Draco asked again.
"It's only been half an hour since I came back, and I see you're not in the room."
"I took Pansy to watch the goldfish in the garden, and left her there while I was playing hide and seek." Draco looked smug.
Narcissa reproached, "It is not a gentleman's act to leave a lady there alone. ”
"Alright, I'll go in a moment." Draco digressed the subject, "Mom, what did you say you wanted to bring me as a gift?" ”
"Ah, I forgot." Narcissa smiled apologetically.
When she left, she only said that she was going to visit a relative, but she did not say who she was going to see.
And Azkaban's environment had a big impact on her, and she didn't have the heart to buy a gift for Draco.
Draco stared at his mother, as if aware that she had just cried, and suddenly his face changed, "Mom, you're not going to see that house, are you?!" ”
"What, that's your aunt." Narcissa reprimanded.
Narcissa had three sisters: Bellatrix, the eldest, who married Rodolphus of House Lestrange;
The second eldest, Andomeda, married Muggle-born wizard Ted Tonks, and was then removed from the family.
Bella and Andomeda have a close relationship, and Bella is eager to kill her sister.
Although Narcissa didn't like Andomeda either, they were sisters after all, and the relationship between the two was not so sharp, and she secretly visited this sister several times.
Draco had mistakenly thought that his mother had gone to visit the aunt.
Draco pouted, disapproving, "I saw her daughter Tonks when I was at school. ”
"What are Tonks doing at school?" Lucius frowned.
"I don't know, it seems that she is going to Stark as an Auror to record the cause of Quirrell's death."
Lucius stared at his son and said, "Draco, I heard...... You've been at school lately, and you've been getting close to that Muggle Stark? ”
"I didn't ...... There is no ......" Draco's pale face turned red.
"I just saw that he had some good alchemy items and bought them for a small amount of money.
You've seen it, and that warm-up badge was invented by him.
The same thing, Diagon Alley sells more expensive, and the quality is not good...... A wizard like this will sell this kind of thing for the rest of his life, and he won't have a big profit...... It's not worth your attention! ”
"Yes, you spent more than three thousand Galleons a semester." Lucius stared at his son: "I have no objection to you spending money, but ...... It's not like that. ”
"I see." Draco lowered his head.
"By the way, what kind of gift did you just say?" Lucius asked.
"I wanted a good broomstick, and our academy failed miserably this year, I think it's because the academy didn't have a Halo 2000, and the Ravenclaw team had two." Draco argued.
"The academy's light wheel 1700 is not bad." Lucius was dissatisfied: "I really didn't expect that Slytherin House would degenerate to such a point that even Ravenclaw couldn't win. ”
Draco kept his head down and didn't speak.
Narcissa glared at her husband, and Lucius breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since you want to buy it, buy the best!" Otherwise, it will be a loss of face for the Malfoy family.
A friend of mine told me that the latest version of the Light Wheel 2001 is about to be released, how about buying you one when the time comes? “
"But I'm not a member of the academy team yet." Draco said unhappily, "Harry Potter was in his first year last year, and Dumbledore gave him permission to compete for Gryffindor House.
He didn't deserve it at all, but because he had some fame...... Because he has a stupid scar on his forehead......"
"Draco, you've only been home for a few days? All Day Potter, Potter's ...... I've said this at least five times. Lucius glanced at his son.
"Want to join the House team? Quite simply, I'm good friends with your dean, Snape, and when I was a prefect, he had just entered the house, and I took good care of him.
I want to get into the team, a matter of one word. ”
Lucius said sternly: "However, if you can't play and perform poorly during the game, you will lose the face of the Malfoy family......"
"No, I'm very skilled." Draco said happily. "I'm guaranteed to lead Slytherin to victory."
"Your guarantee?" Lucius was dissatisfied: "You also promised me this at Easter, saying that you could take the first grade exam. ”
"It's not my fault," Draco retorted, "the teachers are biased, that Hermione Granger has Stark tutoring-"
"A girl from a non-wizarding family is better than you in every exam, I thought you would be ashamed." Lucius said angrily.
Draco lowered his head again, waiting for his mother to say, "Okay, he's still a kid!" ”
But just then, there was a knock at the door.
"Come in!"
A house-elf walked in trembling, dressed like an old pillowcase with holes in his arms and legs.
The elf bowed deeply, its slender nose touching the carpet.
"Lord...... Master. The elf let out a shrill trembling sound, "Dobby...... Something to ...... you Report ......"
Lucius was angry, and he dragged a long note and stared at the house-elf.
"Dobby, if you disturb me, and because of such a trivial matter as 'the peacock at the door pecked you a few times,' I don't mind imposing a harsher punishment on you.
Like what...... Keep you in the oven. ”
Dobby shuddered, tears welled up in his eyes, and he said in fear, "No, master...... Doorway...... A lot of officials from the Ministry of Magic came.
One of them said his name was Arthur Weasley......"
Lucius suddenly stood up and strode out.
As he reached the door, he kicked Dobby as if he were venting, kicking the elf out of the way and hitting his head on the corner of the table.
The cup full of coffee falls and hits Dobby's head, and the liquid spills on the expensive unicorn fur carpet.
"Before I get back, clean up, or don't want to have dinner!"
Lucius strode towards the door.
Dobby's head hung humbly, coffee converging at his feet.
There was almost no resentment in his eyes, only numbness, because ...... Get used to it.
