Chinese students at Hogwarts

"ah?"

Zhang Xiao raised his head and stared blankly at the huge Christmas tree in the atrium, a 10-meter-tall Christmas tree.

It is wrapped with circles of Christmas lights, and the branches and leaves are dotted with shiny 'snowflakes', bells, and dolls.

There is even a small treetop star poked at the top. If I hadn't had excellent eyesight, I would have almost missed it.

The above are still considered normal Christmas tree decorations, but there are other things.

Looking at the copper coins, ingots, agate and other items with Chinese characteristics hanging on the branches, Zhang Xiao's lips twitched twice.

What a strange mind can sew a money tree and a Christmas tree together!

"Dad, this Christmas tree is quite unique!"

Zhang Chengdao glanced at him sideways:

"You think I don't know. This tree is too big and there are not enough decorative materials. Is it a temporary emergency?

This year, the British economy has finally improved a bit. In previous years, Christmas has been a success.

This year it suddenly broke out. The Christmas tree sellers were still stocking up on the sales volume of the previous two years. Now the whole of London is short of Christmas trees, let alone decorations.

I have no choice but to use this thing to support it. "

Li Qingshu pursed her lips and suppressed a smile:

"Well - it's quite - quite unique. Thank you for your hard work, husband."

She raised her wrist and looked at it: "It's almost time. Let's go to the entrance and wait. They will probably be here soon."

Not long after, a BMW parked at the gate. Mr. Granger's face stretched out from the driver's seat, looking at the vast Chinese-style courtyard in surprise.

It seems unexpected that there is such a house in the bustling London.

"welcome."

Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu greeted the Grangers familiarly.

This is not the first time that everyone has met. As long as Mr. Granger is not in Diagon Alley, he will not be so reserved.

As for the little witch Hermione, she just got out of the car and ran towards him happily holding Crookshanks in her arms.

After entering the house lively, the Granger family immediately let out a chorus of admiration.

It was the middle of winter, but this garden still seemed to be in the middle of summer, with luxuriant branches and leaves, green leaves, and flowers in the garden still in full bloom.

"It's so beautiful. How did you do it? What spell did you use?"

Hermione was wearing a red woolen hat and a Gryffindor-colored scarf. Her little face was stained with a blush, not sure whether it was because of the cold or happiness.

She looked at Zhang Xiao with shining eyes, as if asking the professor a question in class, eager to master such magic.

"Hmm - to be honest, I don't know exactly how it is done, but magic can definitely do it."

Zhang Xiao shrugged. The shock that Gunter's old house gave him before continues to this day.

The incredible way to hide the room, the way to open the door, and the huge sea of ​​dandelions all show that magic is definitely not just waving a wand and chanting a spell.

It is a vast and complex system worth a lifetime of exploration.

Especially on the way back, he talked to his father about Gunter's old house, and Zhang Chengdao was equally interested.

He also excitedly discussed with his son how to use Taoism to achieve it.

For example, a hiding room can be arranged using the yin and yang of Tai Chi. Only when both yin and yang are present can the door be opened.

The sea of ​​flowers inside is a bit troublesome, but if you use the cave sky, it should be fine.

The most troublesome thing is the sea of ​​dandelions.

In short, it can be achieved, but it is definitely not as simple as Voldemort. According to Dumbledore, Tom definitely only used a wand.

This is amazing, the Dao Sect has almost the same layout but needs a lot of help.

I can only say that magic is truly outstanding in terms of being unreasonable and convenient.

Hermione sighed regretfully, but soon she was attracted by the beautiful scenery as she moved around the garden, and couldn't help but run to the pavilion of the small lake.

It can only be said that it was Hermione, because she just took a rough look, then took out a book from somewhere and started reading it - that place is indeed a good place for reading, at least Zhang Xiao himself often Do this.

Zhang Xiao laughed dumbly when he saw that the little witch had entered a state of concentration in reading. He shook his head and did not disturb her. At this time, Hermione was possessed by McGonagall. If she didn't want to be lectured, she could interrupt her reading.

Hermione didn't even go to the atrium at the back, let alone see the huge Christmas tree before she fell into the reading pavilion.

It can only be said that Hermione is the best guest to entertain - all you need to do is give her a book she hasn't read.

The arrival of the Granger family seemed to be the beginning of something, and guests came over one after another.

Sirius drove his Lotus sports car and parked next to the BMW. The godfather and godson coolly took off their sunglasses together.

Before they could enter, a three-story, bright purple bus rushed over from a distance and stopped at the gate with a screeching brake.

Like dumplings, the Weasleys happily ran off the bus one after another.

A young salesman wearing a purple uniform, with a pair of big ears and a face full of acne stuck his head out of the bus window and looked at the mansion in front of him that was full of 'exotic style'.

He patted the door casually, and the bus disappeared with a whoosh.

Knight bus?

His parents, who were chatting with Mr. and Mrs. Granger in the foyer, also came out with smiles on their faces.

"Arthur, Molly, welcome! Sirius, welcome."

The relationship between the Zhang Xiao family and the Weasley family is quite good. Although they have only been guests once, they are quite close. In addition, every year because of picking up children, they meet many times at King's Cross Station and Diagon Alley.

The four parents got along quite well. As for Blake, they only met once at King's Cross station at the end of second grade.

But Zhang Xiao believes that it won’t take long. According to Dad and Sirius’s temper, they should become familiar with each other soon.

"Zhang, is this your home? It's so cool!" Ron rushed over excitedly, gave Zhang Xiao and Harry a warm hug, and pulled them into the crowd: "Man, let me introduce you Look, this is my brother, Bill - a Cursebreaker at Gringotts!"

A tall young man with red hair unique to the Weasley family and a long ponytail smiled, stretched out his hands to shake Zhang Xiao and Harry.

He wears an earring on his ear, with a small fan-like thing hanging on it, which is very cool.

"Hello, my brother has been talking about you two. I have never seen Ron like this. I want to say-well, Zhang, Harry, thank you for helping him."

Bill shook it hard, then clenched it into a fist and pointed to his chest with his thumb: "Next time you have a chance to come to Egypt, I will show you something interesting."

"! You are not willing to take me there, but I am your biological brother!" Ron shouted unwillingly.

"Ron, when you stop being so impatient and get excellent grades in all three subjects: Charms, Transfiguration, and Defense Against the Dark Arts, I will take you to see them."

Bill spread his hands and the small pendants on his ears were flying up and down. Harry suddenly felt that he also wanted to try this kind of dress.

When it came to his grades, Ron's shoulders immediately slumped. He got straight A's in all three subjects.

In fact, Ron is not without talent. On the contrary, as a member of the Weasley family, Ron's talent is actually quite good, but he has an ability, that is, he can't get what he wants.

It doesn’t matter whether he does his homework, reviews or not, and whether he works hard or not, no matter what, he will maintain an above-average grade. If he performs well, he will get an excellent grade, but overall, he will definitely be above average!

"Bill's right, it's not a safe place."

The other had a broad, kindly face, weather-beaten and freckled, almost brown-black in appearance.

The arms were muscular, and one arm bore a large, shiny scar from a fire.

He looks a little pudgy, but still has the unique fiery red hair of the Weasley family.

"Charlie, Ron's brother, takes care of the dragons in the reserve in Romania." Charlie showed a simple smile: "Ron has been talking about you two all the way, and our ears are almost full of him."

Harry and Zhang Xiao shook hands with him and felt the rough skin on his hands. They could only lament that raising dragons was indeed a hard job. The fire sprayed by some dragons was toxic and would leave scars if burned.

"You can come to Romania when you have time. This is the largest dragon sanctuary in the world. I will show you around."

Charlie turned his head and continued: "Ron, I am the same as Bill. I have excellent grades in three subjects: Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Transfiguration. I will take you to play." Ron's eyebrows that had just been raised immediately fell again. , turned into a frown.

Percy, who had just graduated from Hogwarts with honors, was about to step forward with a reserved smile, but Ron pulled Zhang Xiao past him with a cold expression, and walked in front of Fred and George. .

Percy's face suddenly turned red, and his body began to tremble. He wanted to say something, but in the end he endured it, and Bill and Charlie sighed softly.

"do not worry about it."

"It's nothing actually."

Fred and George rushed forward, took the opportunity of hugging and put their heads on both sides of Zhang Xiao, and said quickly in harmony:

"He joined the Ministry of Magic"

"Promoted to be Barty Crouch's assistant"

"We are required to obey the Ministry of Magic"

"Draw a clear line with Dumbledore"

"We had a fight"

"That's it."

Is Percy still like this? I really don’t know why among the seven Weasley children, Percy is such a weirdo.

Zhang Xiao patted the two of them on the back:

"Well, I understand. You are welcome to be our guests."

After skipping this small episode, the atmosphere became heated again. Percy seemed to be forgotten. He was wearing a straight suit and his face was ashen. He wanted to turn around and leave several times, but in the end he did not leave, but clenched his fists. , I don’t know what I’m thinking.

The meeting between Harry and Ginny was still so interesting. Ever since Sirius took Harry and started to clean up himself, Harry's appearance has greatly improved and he is quite popular in school, especially since many of the bullshit things that turned out to be bad were done to him by Zhang Xiao. solved.

Harry, who has strong hands-on skills and is outstanding at Quidditch, is the favorite type of little girls, not to mention that he has become handsome again.

Just saying hello, Ginny's face was almost as red as her hair. She looked at Harry, suddenly covered her face and screamed, running in the direction of Mr. Arthur.

The Weasley family immediately burst out laughing. Apart from Harry and Ron, who were confused, these two idiots were the only ones who didn't know that Ginny liked Harry.

The two were still confused as to why Ginny ran away.

The atmosphere finally reached a climax when an exquisite carriage came clicking on the stone slabs from a distance.

In order to spend Christmas with his son, Lucius took Narcissa back to England after careful consideration. Faced with his wife's worries, Lucius felt that it should be nothing. At least Zhang's home should be safe, right?

The black walnut carriage door slowly opened, and an automatically retracting ladder extended directly from the door to the ground.

Malfoy was held by Narcissa and appeared at the door of the carriage. Malfoy was dressed quite formally. If you ignore the expression of suppressing joy and pretending to be arrogant on his face, he was really a personable person just by his appearance. gentleman.

The moment Lucius, Arthur and Sirius looked at each other, they understood each other's meaning - today was a special day, and they stopped fighting for a day.

Although they all knew that they couldn't fight, the three adults who only had tough words were still unwilling to give up every opportunity to make sarcastic remarks.

"Hey, aren't these Arthur - Director Weasley and Master Black?" Lucius took off the black lambskin gloves on his hands and said slowly.

Arthur was a good old man, but not good at words. He just stared at Lucius, but Sirius would not let him go. The last son of the Black family smoothed his hair and said lazily:

"Hey, this is not an escape - oh, look at my mouth -"

Black protracted his tone: "Isn't this Lucius Malfoy who fled to China?"

Lucius was suffocated immediately. He had never been afraid of anyone talking, but at this time Zhang Chengdao had already strongly intervened in the topic:

"Everyone, everyone has arrived, let's go in and sit for a while."

Lucius and Black snorted from their noses at the same time, turned around and took their children to the Linlangtian Villa.

Similar to Hermione, when they walked around the entrance and came to the garden, all the little wizards couldn't help but say "Wow".

Although there are similar methods in the wizarding world, the combination of this house full of oriental charm and the evergreen vegetation has a mysterious charm that is unique to the East.

I can't bear it anymore, I feel like I'm getting cold, I have a headache, and I really want to sleep. I'm afraid I won't have time at night, so I wrote it down first.

Alas, I originally promised readers to write about Christmas at Zhang Xiao’s house, but now I’m trapped in it.

It was so difficult, so difficult to write. I went to bed and woke up tomorrow thinking about how I could focus on the key points and get through this plot.
