Civilization and Harmony Hogwarts

Chapter 326 Sirius' Christmas 6

In preparation for the Christmas dinner, the Black family is in full swing.

While the house-elves do most of the work, Walburga, as "head of the household," makes all the planning decisions.

As small as the placement of vases, the height and angle of decorative paintings...

From the drawing up of the invitation list to the timing of the dinner process...

Walburga, who was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, could not spare any energy for Sirius until the Christmas dinner was successfully held.

Sirius also spent a peaceful time because of this.

His usual daily schedule is nothing more than communicating with Jameson, telling him some interesting stories about Hogwarts under the expectant eyes of Little Rael, taking a little time to deal with homework during the holidays, and occasionally looking through Find some fun tricky spells in the Black family library...

Very comfortable.

Once you relax, you will feel that time flies by.

Soon, it was the day of the Christmas dinner.

At the Christmas Eve family dinner the day before, Walburga was still eloquent and warning the whole family—everyone in the Black family did not escape—which led to the next day, Christmas Day. On Christmas Day, the atmosphere in Black's house was very stagnant.

It wasn't until night fell that Black's house welcomed its first guest amid brightly lit lights, and the stagnant atmosphere was suddenly broken up.

Those who entered the venue at the earliest time were those guests who were put at the bottom of the invitation list by Walburga. They all had pleasing smiles on their faces and greeted the host politely and thoughtfully.

But in Sirius' view, the smiles on these guys' faces were flattering and deliberate, full of flattery, and each of them looked extremely hypocritical.

After the first batch of guests arrived one after another and began to socialize, there was a period of blankness in the middle, and then the second batch of guests arrived at the scene at a time.

Officials of the Ministry of Magic, masters of various fields, and some pure-blood families.

"James!" Sirius exclaimed in surprise as he looked at James who was quietly following behind the Potters.

"Sirius!" Sirius' gaffe caused Walburga beside him to lower his voice and call his name as a warning.

Seeing the in-law relationship between the Potters and the Blacks, as well as the relatively close relationship between James Potter and Sirius, it was rare for Walburga to treat the Potters a little more warmly than other guests.

"Why are you here?" Sirius took the opportunity to ask James in a low voice while Walburga and the Potters were having a "hypocritical greeting" between adults.

"Your family sent us an invitation letter for this Christmas dinner." James also answered Sirius' question in a low voice.

James explained to Sirius: "At first, Mom and Dad were still thinking about whether to come to the appointment. It was I who saw Professor Gunter present, which convinced Mom and Dad to make up their minds to come to the banquet."

The label of Professor Gunter's admirer on James is still strong today!

Sirius: ...

Women's lips!

In just a few words, Walburga and the Potters had almost finished exchanging pleasantries.

Seeing this, Sirius could only pause James' conversation: "I'll find you later."

Sirius signaled James to go to him immediately after all the guests arrived and he was free to move about.

"Okay!" James and Sirius exchanged glances, nodded tacitly, indicating that he had received it.

The arrival of the Potters and James seemed to turn on some kind of switch, and then Shafik, Prewett, Ollivander, McMillan, Longbottom, Burke, Abbott...

These pure-blooded family members who had not been very close to the Black family, and could even be said to be somewhat estranged, arrived one by one.

Pure-blood families such as Prewett and Longbottom who are related to the Black family are fine, but Sirius has also seen many famous half-blood wizards who have publicly refuted the pure-blood thinking of the wizarding world.

Sirius:! ! !

Sirius looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, the fur all over his body was about to stand on end.

It is not to blame for his performance, but it is because Black, who was under the control of Walburga in the past, had an almost fanatical pursuit and persistence for "Eternal Purity".

As a mother and son, Sirius and even Walburga's paranoia and morbidity under that elegant and beautiful skin.

In normal times, she would never, never, never let those wizards who she thought were unqualified set foot on the territory of Black’s house—especially when Sirius found out that several half-blood wizards who came were Walburga who had abused and belittled at home. passed.

'Wouldn't she want to take the opportunity to wipe out all the wizards she despises? '

Such a terrible idea popped up in Sirius' mind inappropriately.

But soon he forced himself to stop the divergence of this kind of thinking, lest the more he thought about it, the more outrageous he would be, which would make him unable to manage his expressions well.

After the second batch of wizards arrived, the atmosphere at the banquet gradually heated up.

After all, for the first batch of guests, although the second batch of wizards who arrived were not the best objects to cling to, they were worthy of their favor and maintaining a good relationship.

It was getting late, and Sirius felt more and more bored.

At last, before his patience ran out, Walburga's main objects of show came—

"Yo—Walburga, what a beautiful day today! Looks much better than usual."

The sound of "yo" seems to have been rolling in the throat for a long time, and finally "pull" it out in a long tone with nine turns and eighteen turns, which makes people get goosebumps all over their bodies when they hear it.

The content that followed was extremely yin and yang, coupled with the sour expression of the visitor, which pleased Walburga to a great extent.

Sirius found that his mother, who usually didn't have a smiling face and always looked elegant, had a natural and carefree smile on her face at this moment.

Not a polite smile when socializing, or a sneer when you are in a bad mood, but a pure, heartfelt, pleasant smile.

Sirius (thriller): ! ! !

Sirius looked at the visitor in surprise, and when he saw the shiny platinum-blonde long hair of the visitor, his probing eyes turned into boring dead fish eyes that lost their highlights.

Abraxas Malfoy gradually approached with his wife and his eldest son Lucius Malfoy.

"Tsk tsk tsk... I didn't expect it! I really didn't expect it! The pie that fell from the sky fell on you Blake like this?"

Abraxas, old hermaphrodite.

Abu was very bitter about the Black family getting this opportunity. When he first heard the news, he couldn't sleep all night. He couldn't figure out why.

Abu: It shouldn't be!This kind of opportunity either belongs to Malfoy or falls on Lestrange, or Nott, so is Black lucky?

According to the closeness of the relationship, no one in the Black family belongs to the same class as Tom. Because of their gender, the older Lucretia and Walburga are often inconvenient to participate in the discussions they have in the boys' dormitory, so the relationship is relatively not that close. And Olein joined the small group a little later because he was a few years younger, and the cultivation of feelings may not be in place.

According to Valpurgis' internal abilities and contributions, although Black is not far behind, he is not among the top few.

There is no reason, public or private, that the Blakes should receive this honor.Facing Abramovich's sour words, Walburga smiled more sincerely.

If Abu spoke like this in normal times, Walburga could not bear it long ago, and just went back ironically, but who told her that she was in such a good mood today!

Walburga, who was in a good mood, "tolerated" Abramovich's "little temper" generously.

Abu: ...

That being said, it's weird...

"Ahem..." Lucius behind Abu frantically made a noise to signal his childish old father not to be too high.

This is outside, not in your own home, restrain yourself a bit!

Lucius felt a little embarrassed when he saw Walburga's domineering posture that was almost identical to Bella's.

What's more...

Sissy is still at Black's! ! !

What if Mrs. Black became angry for a while and refused to let her see Sissy again?

For his own future, Lucius stepped forward: "Dad, it's time to go in."

Before Abu yelled angrily, "I'm not done with you, your old father," Lucius pulled out the banner of his mother.

"It's too cold outside, hurry up and let mom sit down and have a rest!"

Lucius: Come on!Dad, let's go in! ! !It's so cold outside, you have to stand all the time!It will be bad for your wife to freeze my mother!

Just about to explode, but when he heard Lucius mention his wife, Abu immediately gave up his plan to continue to insult Walburg, and walked straight in with his wife's waist.

Of course, when Abu walked in, he didn't forget to snort at Lucius, so as to express his "disdain" for this son of barbecued pork who forgot his old father after having a fiancee.

Abu: Oh!The fiancée didn't even show up, so she showed weakness to the fiancée's family!You were beaten to death by your fiancée at a young age, you are worthless, kid! ! !

Mrs. Malfoy, who was regarded by Lucius as a sharp weapon against Abu, couldn't understand Lucius' little plan. She gave Lucius a half-smile, her eyes full of connivance.
