Chapter 69: Guest

"Hello, little friend, what are you doing here, are you lost?" Mr. Granger asked when he saw a twelve-year-old boy entering his dentist's office alone, and he naturally didn't think that the little boy was coming to see a dentist without an adult.

"Hello, Mr. Granger, I'm Hermione's classmate, we met at the train station before, when you picked Hermione and Hermione home." Seeing that Mr. Granger didn't seem to remember himself, Maple reminded. Maybe he didn't want to have too much communication with the wizard in public, when he and his wife came to pick up Hermione, they only glanced over to this side after finding Hermione's figure, probably not paying attention to the little boy next to Hermione at all!

"It's you, Hermione's classmate from Hovo, hello, are you here to find Hermione?" Looking at the strange look on Mr. Granger's face when he mentions Hogwarts school, it seems that he still doesn't fully accept the fact that his daughter is a wizard, and like most Muggle-born wizards, he can't always remember Hogwarts' name. Also, Mr. Granger said it soundly, but he still couldn't remember who Maple was.

"Yes, and Hermione invited me to stay at your house while at the train station, for I was an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. It's just that I had a little trouble the other day, and I was delayed, and I forgot to write to Hermione to explain. Maple said with her head down and some embarrassment.

"Oh, you're Maple, aren't you? Hermione has mentioned your name many times these days. After knowing that the little boy in front of him was the Maple that Hermione often mentioned, Mr. Granger seemed to suddenly become very happy, probably because Hermione was always isolated by other classmates and couldn't make good friends, which made the Granger couple very worried, but now they have a good classmate, which makes Mr. Granger suddenly feel that the school of Hovo or something is not completely useless.

"Did Hermione mention me many times?" Maple's face is a little dark, and it is the first time he has released a girl pigeon, and I hope it will not be made into pigeon soup by the other party.

"yes, it looks like she's angry at someone for not keeping their promises?" Mr. Granger said a little hurriedly, and then said, "What, do you need my help?" ”

"It's great that you can help!" Maple immediately struck the snake with the stick, then opened his chest, took out all the gifts for Mr. Granger, especially the butterbeer, and said, "These are the gifts I have for you, and they are all specialties of our world." ”

Mr. Granger was surprised to see that Maple actually knew to prepare a gift for himself, but then he was very happy, but quickly frowned: "How did you buy so many sweets, eating these is not good for your teeth!" ”

"Huh?" I actually forgot that Hermione's parents were both dentists, and it seemed that there was a tendency for some occupational diseases, and sweets were regarded as heinous demons.

However, since Maple is a child, Mr. Granger can't bother with him, just remind Maple to pay more attention to his teeth.

There were no other guests at this time, and Granger was immediately interested in talking about his profession, and talked endlessly to Maple, but Maple had to pretend to be listening very carefully, nodding his head from time to time. But he smiled bitterly in his heart, and he knew that it was better to let Hermione scold him.

Mr. Granger was satisfied to see that Maple had been listening carefully to what he had to say. Then he picked up another gift butterbeer that Maple had brought, opened it and took a sip, with an expression of surprise immediately on his face.

Although the taste of butterbeer is not top-notch, it gives a very satisfying and comfortable feeling after drinking it, perhaps because it has some ingredients added to the euphoric agent.

Mr. Granger took a sip and wanted to drink it again, and quickly finished a bottle of Butterbeer with a look of unfinished expression on his lips.

The effort was finally in vain, and Maple breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "This beer is better when it's cold, and it can also warm up your body." ”

"yes, that's amazing." Mr. Granger said that seeing that there were not many customers in the store for the rest of the store, Mr. Granger simply closed the store and went home with Maple.

Hermione's family is financially well-off, her parents are both dentists, and there is an independent dentist's office. Peace has been in place for half a century and is expected to continue for a long time to come, with rich people who are happy to enjoy it, and spoiled children with tooth problems are commonplace. So although there is not business coming to the door all the time, on the whole, the income in the past year is still very considerable, and it can be regarded as a member of the middle class.

And because there is only a family of three, the consumption is not high, so in the middle class, their assets can also rank in the middle and upper class.

"Hermione, who do you think I'm bringing here?" Back home, Mr. Granger handed over Hermione, who had been reading in his room.

"Dad, why did you get off work so early today?" Hermione, who was called out by Mr. Granger, came out with a book in her hand, which made Maple feel embarrassed, how did Xueba develop, maybe she was more suitable for the Xueba system than herself.

"There is a little guest at home today, you will be very happy to see it." Mr. Granger said, pulling Maple behind him.

"Hello, Hermione!" Maple greeted Hermione with a smirk.

"Maple!" Hermione first shouted happily, but then snorted angrily, "Humph! ”

Probably because her father was around, Hermione couldn't scold Maple as she did at school.

"I'm sorry, Hermione, I've had some trouble, and I didn't mean to break it." Maple hurriedly explained.

"What kind of trouble made you not even write a letter?" Hermione still didn't give up, but in front of her father, she saved face for Maple.

"I was wrong, Hermione, I forgot!" When beaten, you must stand upright, admit your mistakes sincerely, and don't make too many excuses.

Suddenly found that Mr. Granger and Mrs. Granger had been staring at them all the time, watching the communication between the two children with great interest, Hermione's face was a little hot, and she hurriedly found a step down, allowing Maple to pass the test easily: "Okay, forgive you." ”

But Hermione then asked curiously, "Tell me, what's the trouble that keeps you and Harry from writing back to me?" ”

"Harry didn't hear back to you either?" Maple said in surprise.

"yes." Hermione glared at Maple and said, "Harry can't be reached right now, so I can't ask him, what about you?" What's with? ”

"I'm sorry, Hermione, I can't tell you right now." Maple said apologetically, seeing Hermione's appearance that she couldn't help but be angry, she hurriedly said, "Can I tell you later?" I promise! ”

"Okay!" Hermione just let Maple go, the reason why she was suddenly so easy to talk was because she felt uncomfortable with her parents' gaze all the time.

"Alright, Hermione, don't be angry, Maple has brought you a lot of gifts to make amends." Mr. Granger spoke at this point.

Maple also took the opportunity to open his box, revealing a box full of candy.

"So much? Did you rob Duke Honey? Hermione said in surprise.

"I'd like your family to taste the food of our wizarding world!" Hermione was overjoyed to hear Maple say this, and happily took a bee candy out of it and ate it.

Mrs. Granger frowned as much as Mr. Granger when she saw so many sweets, but when she saw her daughter's happy appearance, she didn't say anything to discourage her.

"Mom, Dad, come and try it too! Although these taste sweet, they are sugar-free. Hermione knew what her parents were thinking when she saw their parents' expressions, and she said. Maple didn't know if Hermione was right, but Hogsmeade's magic candies really didn't make people decay.

"Really? That's amazing! Mr. Granger said, and as he said that, he took out a candy from it, and perhaps out of scruples, he took out a bag of Bibi Beans.

Seeing this, Maple hurriedly popularized Mr. Granger's attention to eating Bibi Beans, and when he heard the peculiarity of Bibi Beans, Mr. Granger didn't just throw them away, but thought the food was very interesting.

Mr. Granger was obviously much smarter than those who had eaten the bitterness of Bibi beans, licking it with his tongue before eating it again. Mr. Granger's face grew more and more interested, and he called his wife, who was standing aside, to come and taste it.

Hermione couldn't help but be overjoyed to see the Granger couple as elated as the little wizard who had eaten the magic food for the first time. Then, Hermione and Maple showed off the magic of various magic candies such as chocolate balls, chocolate frogs, and blowing packets of super lollipops, so that the Granger couple finally couldn't help but taste the food one by one with curiosity, and their faces showed surprise and wonder from time to time.

Finally, when they took out all the candy in the box, the Granger couple realized the magic of Maple's chest, no wonder Hermione was so surprised before, it turned out that Maple really brought too much.

The Granger couple were really self-controlled, and although Hermione had said that before, they were still shallow about everything that had a sweet taste. Now that they saw that Maple had brought food that could open a small shop, they didn't know what to do with the candy.

"Auntie, I think you can eat more, and then ask your uncle to check your teeth the next day, and you will know if Hermione lied to you just now!" Maple also saw the embarrassment of the Granger couple and hurriedly said.

Mr. and Mrs. Granger usually take care of their teeth, so it doesn't hurt to indulge once in a while, so it's good to try it out, these are Hermione's thoughts, and it would be a bit of a disappointment to the child's kindness if they were sold.

The Granger couple then eat some sweets, and the group sits together, and Maple tells them some interesting things about the school. And complimenting Hermione on her intelligence, her nickname as a jack-of-all-trades and her first grade in her grade made the Granger couple extra proud and proud.

In such a pleasant atmosphere, it was a moment of joy.
