0190 Loris's Secret
Ani leaned over and grabbed the end of a stalk, sliding her fingers slightly to cut it whole, sliding it again and removing a piece from it.
Skillfully peeling the entrance, Ani squinted her eyes happily, it was still the familiar taste of childhood, it was so sweet.
Under Hagrid's puzzled gaze, Aini split another piece and handed it to the big man, motioning for him to follow.
"Click~"
Tentatively placing the white stalk in his mouth, Hagrid's eyes lit up and he began to chew heavily.
"It tastes so good, but it's a little hard to swallow......
In the middle of speaking, the big man saw Ani spit out the chewed residue and closed his mouth in some embarrassment.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then laughed at the same time.
"I calculated the time, it seems to have been raining at Hogwarts for the days when the corn bloomed, which may have affected the pollination of the plants, of course, it may be something else, I'll help you find a few books on corn planting when I go back."
Ani pinched his chin and thought about it, it seems that the climate and soil in the UK are indeed not very friendly to corn, but pay attention to it so that it will not be fruitless, and let Hagrid try again next year.
"When this thing has a stick, the stem doesn't taste good, but if it doesn't bear fruit, all the nutrients accumulate in the stalks, and it becomes very sweet."
Ani gave Hagrid a look at science and took a bite of the white stalk in his mouth.
Hogwarts has not yet reached the point where it needs to subsidize the workers to grow their own food, and Hagrid's farming is purely a hobby, and he was sad before because he was reluctant to spend his own efforts.
And as long as his labor is worthwhile, whether it is eating corn kernels or chewing sweet stalks, it doesn't make much difference to Hagrid.
What he wants to harvest most is not all kinds of fruits, but the sharing and appreciation among friends.
After solving Hagrid's troubles and harvesting some sweeteners, the two of them went to the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and Aini missed Nobeta and Luwe a little.
After Halloween, the most time-consuming and troublesome parts of Aini's plan were successfully completed, and the whole person was much lighter.
For the rest of the day, Lockhart worked hard as a drainer after regaining his grasp of the Vanishing Charm, and there was too much water in the long tunnel.
When Peter returned to the Gryffindor common room, he realized how strange his previous state was, and he didn't plan to take another half step out of the dormitory until he figured it out.
The two villains are in retreat, Hogwarts has a quiet time, and the castle is quiet, but Hermione is busy.
Without him, Aini took advantage of this period of dissipation to devote himself to compiling a book, not only the "Third Grade Transfiguration" had been finalized, but even nearly half of the textbook for the year after next was written.
After the editor's sister mentioned 600 yuan, she had to work overtime for the second 600.
As for the joy of watching the textbook in advance, hehe, can't say, can't say, hehehe, hahahaha.
In short, as Christmas approached, Lavender and the others had become accustomed to Hermione's inexplicable laughter from time to time.
And at this time, Filch couldn't laugh at all, he had never been so tired.
Ever since he discovered that Tom and his meow were often together, a caretaker panicked, and whenever Mrs. Loris went out to play, Filch would use their psychic connection to sneak in the back.
Loris didn't say much about this, but every time she confronted Tom, Argus would get a expressive [cat contempt], and sometimes Tom's cat face appeared in her dreams.
But in order to avoid something unspeakable, Filch also fought hard, and in recent days he always felt that his dark circles were about to develop towards his cheekbones.
As for giving Tom Meow a hard beating, so that he doesn't dare to play in the castle again......
Hehe.
Draco scratched his hair in embarrassment, a shy smile on his lips.
From childhood to adulthood, because of the countless praises received by the family, the young master of the Malfoy family can even depict what kind of face is hidden behind the false flattery without even opening his eyes.
For a long time, he was more and more eager to get it
The recognition of others is not a false affection from his family background on weekdays, but a sincere appreciation of his personal ability.
Truth be told, Draco is handsome on the outside, with a knife-like facial line, delicate and neat contours, clean blue eyes, and white blonde hair that is as smooth as the sun, which can get a lot of points on first impression.
The magic talent is also superior, and the mind is also very smart, as long as there is no longer a brainless variety of show superiority and bloodline, it is difficult not to be liked by the teacher.
After Aini's teaching, Draco is still arrogant, but he really let go of the so-called "pure-blood", and has made a few Muggle-born friends, and is very popular among the lower Hogwarts students, especially girls.
As Anie's little fan, Draco is particularly attentive to the work of Transfiguration assistants, so naturally he is often praised in various ways.
So the boy worked harder, and a good positive cycle began.
Ani closed the page full of notes and handed him back the hand-copied version of "Third Grade Transfiguration: Volume I", and a sense of accomplishment rose in his heart.
He had changed too many things in this life, and the boy who had been a prodigal boy in his original trajectory was now spending most of his time studying, and his extraordinary talent and more time investment made his Transfiguration learning almost catch up with Hermione's progress.
It's nice to make others better because of your presence!
A win-win situation is the right way.
"Don't look at Hermione's notes directly, study them yourself, think about it, then compare it with other people's things, and finally read this detailed explanation with questions."
The boy's rapid progress was also due to Hermione, and the little witch directly copied her notebook full of notes to Draco, so that he could learn more directly and clearly.
Although this saves time, it lacks the process of trial and error and thinking, and the knowledge obtained lacks a bit of depth and is not reliable enough.
So Ani gave the students two more books, a brand new textbook, and a detailed explanation of the third-grade Transfiguration.
The second was the product of Aini's flash of inspiration the last time she heard Hermione complain that some information and extended knowledge were not easy to look up.
No wonder I always feel that something is missing, "Transfiguration" is a serious subject, how can there be no tutorial books and question books?
"Thank you, thank you."
Taking the book, Draco didn't know how to express his gratitude, and during the summer he asked his father to prepare a generous gift, but the professor refused without hesitation.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, there's still a lot of time."
Aini patted the boy on the shoulder, he knew the student's thoughts, but it was really unnecessary. The best reward for themselves has already flown over on their own.
After Draco left, Aini turned to look at the armor against the wall.
"Argus, what's the matter?"
Filch took a step forward and stepped out of the shadows of his armor.
"Professor Scamander, I...... I ......."
The corners of some of the cracks opened and closed, and the man still didn't think about what to say for a while.
Just tell him not to let Tom harass Lady Loris?
The reason? Besides, will this arouse the curiosity of the other party, but make Ani have the heart to explore Loris's secret?
