The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 133: Grangers

"Honey, is the cake ready?" A middle-aged woman in a beige trench coat put a bag of dried fruit into the trolley while looking at her husband.

"Of course, we can pick it up tomorrow afternoon. I've ordered a stake cake this time. We can also buy some decorations in the store and make our own cake at home—it's time for you to show your skills." The polite husband beside the trolley was absent-minded He replied that he was looking at the shopping list in his hand, "By the way, then I crossed out the dried cranberries and dried apples?"

"Of course, this bag of dried fruits contains all the dried fruits I need." The middle-aged woman reached out to take the list and crossed out all the dried fruits on it.

"Let me see, and buy a turkey, and prepare some other meats..."

"Are you really going to make a turkey?" The husband's head grew dizzy when he heard the term. If there were a list of all the flashy foods in the world, turkey would be at the top of the list. The turkey looks red after it is roasted, and it is so big that it sits on the table, and it can arouse the appetite of the diners just by looking at it. So much so that turkeys can be found in all movies and TV dramas related to Christmas. But if you look closely enough, you will find that the turkey has not changed much in appearance from beginning to end.

The reason is that it is really hard to eat! ! Under the bright red skin is a piece of paper-like muscle, without a trace of fat! This, combined with the turkey's sheer size—one the size of a human's upper torso—makes it extremely difficult to eat. How bad is this thing? Even in Disney, a turkey leg the size of a human face only costs 80 yuan, which is the most delicious part of the turkey.

That turkey on Christmas Eve will make turkey sandwiches a staple of the family's diet for the rest of the week. It's a nightmare.

"What are you thinking? Of course we're going to do it!" His wife glared at him. "I remember Little Tom will come over for Christmas, right? You can eat with him."

"I think this will really hurt the relationship between him and our daughter." The husband complained about his wife's decision in a low voice. Just underage turkeys. But when his wife came over, he directly broke his last stubbornness and replaced him with a big turkey weighing twenty pounds.

The couple are the Grangers who are shopping for Christmas supplies. This Christmas their baby girl will bring her little friend Tom to their house for Christmas.

Although the daughter hasn't told them clearly about her relationship with Tom, the Grangers can generally guess it. It's just that both sides maintained a tacit understanding and did not puncture this layer of window paper. The relationship between the three is currently in a delicate balance.

After all, the children are still young, and the relationship between the two is highly variable. Maybe someday they will break up? Who can tell the feelings of half-old children, this is the point of view of the Grangers.

After Mrs. Granger picked some fresh meat, ham, sausage, and cheese from the counter, she left the fresh counter with her husband and turkey.

Next, the two continued to purchase supplies according to the list made in advance. When the list was cleared, the shopping cart was already full.

"So what do you think?" Mrs. Granger asked Mr. Granger nonchalantly while queuing in front of the cash register.

"What do you think?" Mr. Granger was taken aback, but did not respond.

"What do you think of this kid Tom?" Mrs. Granger gave her husband a blank stare: Why is this guy like a log.

"Uh, it seems to be not bad?"

Mrs. Granger was speechless.

"Then what do you think will happen if he keeps walking with Minmin?"

"Ah, what else, get married?" Mr. Granger looked at his wife rather strangely, he didn't quite understand what his wife meant. Is she still an unmarriageist? Didn't see it! It is outrageous for an unmarriageist to actually get married.

Mrs Granger wanted to hit someone.

"I mean-"

Mr. Granger finally understood what his wife meant, "I think they are very suitable. Do you think Tom's background is not good?"

Mrs. Granger was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"But if she wants to develop in the wizarding world, how can the two of us help?" Mr. Granger became worried. What should I do if I bully her? Can you help me?"

Mrs. Granger: …

"And this kind of thing depends on Minmin's attitude, doesn't it?" Mr. Granger shrugged his shoulders, and moved the items in the shopping cart to the conveyor belt bit by bit.

As night falls, Christmas comes closer.

Harry felt as if something was pinching his heart.

"You mean, leave the Dursleys' house and live with you?" Harry suppressed his inner excitement, and confirmed it to Sirius. He was really afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he was happy for nothing.

"Ah, that's not what I meant, I meant to say that if you want, you can come to my house for Christmas and try it out, but it hasn't been lived there for a long time, and I'm afraid it will be a mess-anyway, if you want to live at your uncle's house , I can totally understand it lol - I just think-"

Sirius was more nervous than Harry. In his opinion, how could Harry leave his aunt and uncle and choose to spend Christmas with a godfather whom he had never met and who was even wanted?

Sirius had no idea what kind of life Harry was living in the Dursleys, he subconsciously thought he was happy there.

"Of course I would!" Harry said hoarsely ~lightnovelpub.net~ Do you have a house? When can I move in? Don't worry about hygiene or anything, I'm really good at cleaning. "

Sirius turned his head to look at Harry all of a sudden, with an incredulous expression on his face. He didn't expect Harry to actually agree, and a burst of joy welled up in his heart.

"Do you really want to? No need to accommodate me—"

"I really do!"

Sirius smiled, this time he smiled happily, very relaxed, very carefree. He hadn't smiled like this in a long time—nearly twelve years. With such a smile, Sirius seemed ten years younger. Nobody realizes he's just under 35 until he laughs. The smile made him what a man his age should be.

Note: There is no mention of Hermione's nickname in the book, but there is the term Hermy (Hermy), I changed it a little so that the Grangers called her Minmin.

Today I would like to introduce the third generation Minister of Magic: Perseus Parkinson.
