Chapter 101: Home (I)
"I'm stupid, really."
Lin Xiaoan raised his unintelligible eyes and said, "I only know that a house will become dirty if no one lives in it for a long time, and it needs to be cleaned...... Clean up! I didn't know it was so bad...... Clean up! β
"So, isn't it good to stay at Hogwarts? Clean up! Why would I give up three whole weeks of salted fish...... Christmas holidays, come here to practice cleansing spells?! Clean up! β

In early December, Sirius's reputation was restoredβthis time in a rare attempt for the Ministry of Magic to admit its mistake without delay, and in less than three monthsβthe property belonging to the Black family was successfully recovered.
As soon as he got the money, Sirius immediately bought Harry a new broomstick, a firebolt, with a special repair kit - and of course, we can say that Sirius was eager to make up for Harry's grievances over the years.
Sirius, who was overflowing with fatherly love, tried his best to trick Harry into coming to his house for Christmas: "Harry, I can't wait to spend this wonderful holiday with you - by the way, if your friends stay at school for Christmas, you can invite them along-"
As I speak, Sirius had just finished buying a firebolt for Harry in Diagon Alley for Christmas, and was talking to Harry through the fireplace in Professor Lupin's officeβ
He didn't even think to go home and take a look first, even if it was just a glance, he would not dare to make such a big fuss-
Our Black family has house-elves, and the house must be kept clean and tidy, and they can live in their bags!
β¦β¦
Why do wizards celebrate Christmas...... This...... The reason for this is no longer known.
I've already earned almost a month's vacation alone, so why do you care so much?!
At the end of each year, about a week before Christmas, and until mid-January of the following year, it is the traditional Christmas holiday β the winter break in the country of flowers, and there are no final exams.
Hogwarts students can choose to go home for the holidays with their families, or stay at school.
Lin Xiao'an's family still maintains the habit of only planting flowers for the traditional festival, so he stayed at Hogwarts as a salted fish for the first two years - but this year, he had to change himself.
Although he had doubts and was embarrassed, Lin Xiaoan was "persuaded" by Harry, who stuck to his side every day like kraft candy, and came to 12 Grimmauld Place, Sirius's former residence.
What is gratifying (Lin Xiaoan) is that not only Lin Xiaoan is dizzy alone, but also Hermione, Ron and Lin Xiaoan's one-on-one learning and helping object - Ye Siyan.
Draco and Nanjayu narrowly escaped-
Well...... Slytherin House students are not currently on Harry's invitation list.

(What does the original book say?)
β¦β¦ The black paint on the door was peeling off, and it was covered with scratches on the left and right.
The silver knocker is in the shape of a large coiled snake.
There is no keyhole in the door, and there is no mailbox.
Sirius drew his wand and knocked on the door.
Harry heard the loud sound of many metal crashes, and a rattling sound like a chain. The door creaked open.
Harry stepped over the threshold and into the almost dark foyer.
He smelled a wet, dusty smell and a sweet, rotting smell.
β¦β¦ There was a rustling sound, and then a row of old-fashioned gas lamps on the wall came on, casting a flickering unreal glow that illuminated the peeling wallpaper and polished carpet of the long, eerie foyer.
A spider-web-like chandelier flickered overhead, and portraits blackened with age hung crookedly on the walls.
The chandelier and the candelabra on a rickety table next to it are made in the shape of a large serpent.
β¦β¦ Two long, insect-eyed curtains.
Next to the staircase, on the wall trim were a row of crumpled house-elf heads, all with equally ugly noses. οΌ
β¦β¦
As soon as Lin Xiaoan entered the door, he was covered with a thick and damp musty smell: "......"
Awesome, Sirius!
Unreliable to live to middle age is still unreliable!
I really didn't prepare in advance!
Look at the cobwebs on top of the ceiling and in the corners, how elegant!
Look at the little insects crawling around on the curtains and curtains, how lively they are!
Look at the big family of rats scurrying around in every room, how fat they are!
Lin Xiaoan: "I...... Suddenly I want to go back to Hogwarts......"
Ron: "+1......"
Hermione: "+2......"
Night Thoughts: "+10086......"
