HP Approaches the Magical World

Chapter 7: Big house and elf

   Jon didn’t think the matter of having a few children was decided temporarily, but he was just an eleven-year-old kid, so what could he decide?

   Looking at the expectant eyes of the opposite parents, Jon finally defeated the aunt and grandmother's gentle gaze and Bella's curious eyes, and agreed to this request.

   After all, Britain has a relatively small population. In order to prevent wizards from being completely cut off, giving birth is a major event. He also expressed his understanding.

   As for living on his own... he can live at his grandmother’s house, but he’s also very close anyway.

   "However, when I start school, you will come to see me off, right?"

   "Oh, of course." Mr. Smith nodded quickly: "We will send you and Bella to the station together."

   After all, he still wants to see what platform nine and three-quarters looks like.

Jon nodded. Although he knew that non-witch parents might not be able to enter the platform, in theory his father was a dumb gun. Some parts of the world are different from the original, just like the shops in Diagon Alley are not in the original. It's as shabby as described.

   After dinner, the Smiths used the Floo network back to Greenwich, but Jon stayed.

   Bella Yang seemed the happiest. She usually stayed alone in the manor during her vacation. There was no other wizard family living here, so no one would play with her at all.

   At this moment, there is a cousin to accompany her, and she will stay with her forever. She is so happy.

   But Jon didn't want to play with Bella very much, playing with the little girl who was in puberty, that would kill him.

"My dear sister, if you are really bored, why don't you discuss something about magic learning with me? By the way, tell me about Hogwarts. I think we must have There are many things to talk about."

   His mind is full of "Harry Potter Spells Collection".

   But even if he was practicing magic, he didn't want to move today. He used the Floo Net several times in a row, and he had been walking around Diagon Alley for most of the day. His young body was really tired.

   "Well then, you go to bed first."

   Bella confirmed that Jon was really tired, and she had to give up the plan to start entertaining tonight: "Then I will teach you two simple magics tomorrow, say good."

   Jon nodded, went back to the furnished guest room and went to sleep.

  ...

  Mr. Smith moved very fast. When Jon got up the next day, he heard the rumbling sound of a machine outside.

   "What are you doing outside?"

   He put on his clothes and walked to the corridor, Bella was lying by the window looking at the house under construction on the opposite side.

   Because of the disappearance of the blood of the wizard, the magic barrier of the Smith family’s old house has long since disappeared, and the magic energy inside has also dissipated. Now it is an ordinary small manor.

  Since it is too old to live in, it is natural to renovate it.

   Jon looked back from the construction workers, and suddenly saw Aunt Mei talking to an old man.

   "Oh, that's the old housekeeper who was here to see the house before. He is getting older, so the uncle gave him a sum of money and asked him to go back." Bella explained in a timely manner.

   Jon thought of another question: "If there is no housekeeper, would I want to live alone in such a big house?"

"Not really. Grandma prepared a big gift for you-it can't be regarded as a gift." Bella's voice was a little envious: "Part of your Smith family's inheritance belongs to grandma, but those inheritance are used by grandma. It’s gone, and I replaced it with some of the more precious materials, so this time Grandma bought you a house elf, which is considered as a gift to your housekeeper."

  House elf?

   This gift is too big!

Naturally, Jon would not believe that it was because of those inheritances. A declining wizard family whose bloodline of wizards had become thinner, and part of the legacy left by it was placed in the vault. Even if there is too much, there is not much left. where it goes.

It is probably because my grandmother loves her little grandson that she bought the house-elf at a high price. Jon doesn’t know how much an elf is worth, but according to the original book, the Weasley family is a sacred twenty-eight. If one of the clan doesn't own an elf, then it will definitely not be cheap.

   Is this what it feels like to be rich?

   Suddenly inherited the mansion and the treasury-my grandmother is still a rich woman-the pure-blooded little wizard Jon Smith, who is about to become a Hogwarts student, feels very satisfied at this moment.

   "By the way, my aunt said she didn't say how long it would take to renovate?"

   Jon can't wait to live in his old house and see his house elf.

   "It is estimated that it will take three or four days. By the way, my uncle also said that if you have any ideas about the decoration of the house, you can tell my mother to let the workers help you."

   Jon nodded, turned and went downstairs to find his aunt.

   "Hey, don't forget that we are going to play together in the afternoon!"

   Bella's shout came from behind, Jon didn't look back, just waved his hand to indicate that he knew.

He is now full of house design. UU reading www.uukanshu.com had no money in his previous life and couldn’t afford to buy a big house, but he still read a lot of decoration design. The lighting must be good. He doesn’t like the dim feeling, the kind of light is not A sufficient room will hurt your eyesight at first glance. Just look at Dumbledore and you will know that wizards are also short-sighted.

He is also going to imitate the magic practice room in the responsive house, and create a similar room for practicing spells... The library can't be left down, there must be a place to store books and do research, he has not forgotten that he wants to become a magician The goal.

   I feel that buying a book will also cost a lot of money... It’s better to buy a second-hand book, maybe it will be like a half-blood prince, and there may be some other gains.

The thoughtful Jon shared his thoughts with his aunt. May Yang was not surprised by the novel idea of ​​this nephew. This kid often said something out of his age when he was young. This is not true. strange.

  Besides, the owner of this house is still Jon, and how to transform it still depends on Jon's idea.

   "But the practice room you want may be slower to get out. That kind of room needs magical reinforcement. After these Muggle workers are finished, my aunt will invite some wizards to help you cast spells on the house."

   Jon agreed with this point. Most of the wizard’s houses need to be blessed with some protective spells such as the "Muggle Expulsion Curse", which he has already seen in the original book.

   "It's better to finish the work soon. I still want to preview the magic that I will learn in the first grade before school starts."

   Jon appropriately showed his expectations for magic and school, which made Mei Yang happier.

   "Don't worry, my aunt will do it as soon as possible. You can go and learn the magic of the first grade with your cousin. I think Bella will be very willing to tutor you."
