Chapter 454: Pony's Shopping Trip
In a large department store in London, many customers from all over the world shuttle through the many shops, choosing their favorite products.
In a café in the mall, Draco Malfoy handed a £50 bill to a waiter. If you have a lot of goods, you can go to the service desk on the first floor and ask the mall to send someone to help you pick up something, and let the waiter in the store take the goods to the customer service center, and then mail them to any country on the planet. Of course, only if your purse is thick enough.
Malfoy finally checked the contents of the list, and sixty percent of it belonged to baby products, and the other forty percent were expensive daily necessities for all ages.
The words that Malfoy's mother had said when she handed him the shopping list this morning came back to his mind.
"Draco, you have to remember that any relationship needs to be maintained with the heart and soul at all times. Our family has had a lot of bad luck in recent years, but not a single one of us has jumped out to rob us, thanks to the fact that your father has carefully maintained a huge network of connections over the years. ”
"You gave enough money to the people who adopted Alsace and Gianna, but it wasn't enough, and if we didn't care about their siblings and thank that family, the Malfoys would become a strange term in their hearts over time."
"You must remember that although Arthas and Gianna are the children of the Dark Lord, they are also my niece and niece, as well as your cousin and cousin, and they are our few blood relatives. And you have to treat the couple who adopted them as your closest uncle and aunt, and their children as your own younger brothers. ”
"Although we are far away in the UK, it is difficult for us to go to the village to cultivate a relationship with them in person, but the number of courtesies that should be there must be is no less. You go to a Muggle mall in London today and buy a gift according to this list, and send it along with these letters written in your name. ”
"I wrote to Mr. Zhang about this last month and asked him about the hobbies of the people in the village who could talk, and I made this shopping list based on that."
"Remember, the gifts you choose must be expensive in order for the other person to feel that you value them."
"Don't worry about the family's money, my private money can handle it."
Malfoy left a children's toy store with his shopping list and had just purchased a few toys for babies as recommended by the clerk. Although he can scan the goods according to the catalog, this kind of personal gift is obviously the best choice.
Malfoy walked into a nearby children's clothing store and was greeted by a warm waiter.
Malfoy handed the waiter a note with the physical parameters of the two babies and said, "I'm going to buy some clothes for my two-month-old brother and sister to wear from now until winter, you can help me pick them out." ”
The parameters on the note were measured by doctors in the village infirmary when they first arrived in Zhang Xu's hometown.
The waiter took the note, looked at it for a while, and then said to Malfoy: "Sir, the growth rate of babies at this time is very fast, I suggest you choose a larger size, and you can choose a larger winter clothes." ”
The waiter saw that Malfoy was still young, and presumably he didn't know this knowledge, so he explained it to him before choosing clothes.
Malfoy didn't know this at the time, but he thought it made sense, so he said expressionlessly, "Well, then choose according to what you say, starting with the most expensive one." ”
Malfoy had always been discriminatory against Muggles, and he was trying to restrain himself by not ridiculing him today, except that the Secrecy Act did not allow him to reveal his identity. Today, his every move was based on what Professor Zhang had taught in his third-year Muggle studies class.
However, in the eyes of the young waiter, this is the image that the domineering president should have, and she has already made up 200,000 words of content in her mind during the entire procurement process. Especially after Malfoy took a fancy to a few sets of baby pajamas in the store that were made by the designer and the boss after the smoke, which were not cheap and had snakes as the main element, the waiter thought that he was considerate of himself and his own performance.
Just as Malfoy finished paying and was about to ask the waiter to take two large bags of green (Slytherin's color) to the customer service center, he heard a somewhat familiar voice from the door behind him.
"What are you here to see?"
Malfoy could hear it being his cousin Sirius Black's voice.
"Of course, it's to choose clothes for my future child, otherwise what are you going to do when you come in?"
The impatient voice was more familiar to Malfoy, as it had been heard in math class for years.
"Do you have a baby?" Blake asked, surprised.
"When he graduates, I'll go with him to do IVF, do you have any opinions?" "Waiter, help me wrap this pink suit with this crimson suit. ”
Malfoy's grievances against several of them were clear, and he was not optimistic about Blake, because his trip to the East had shown him many things that he could not see in England. However, there has been a thought floating in his mind, if he writes a romance based on these people, maybe he can alleviate the family's financial situation.
Malfoy didn't want to make a fuss, so he hurried out of the children's clothing store while the two of them had their backs to him.
At this time, Malfoy's mind was clouded, and he did not know if he would be able to return to Hogwarts next month to continue his studies.
After learning of the Hogwarts management reshuffle, Malfoy waited for a letter of expulsion from Hogwarts. He knew that when his involvement in Dumbledore's assassination was exposed, Hogwarts would inevitably expel him.
It's just that it's been half a month since he left school, and he still hasn't received a notice of expulsion, which makes him suffer and at the same time gives birth to a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Maybe they're going to announce my expulsion again at the opening party." Malfoy thought.
Malfoy, hurrying to the next store with his head down, didn't even notice that he was passing not far behind Ron.
At this time, Ron was holding Ginny's shopping bag in his left hand and Hermione's shopping bag in his right hand, and he didn't notice Malfoy, who had made him gnash his teeth, passing behind him.
