Ron followed everyone into a grocery store with a dull look on his face.

The boss here mainly sells second-hand goods, and it is a place often visited by the Weasley family.

Even though Charlie and Bill have begun to support themselves, but...

There are still five students in their family who have not graduated!

"Okay, dear, let's go buy a wand." Mrs. Weasley didn't notice Ron's ugly expression at all, "I hope Mr. Vane has received the old wand."

Not counting the previous bookstore, this was Hermione's first time visiting a second-hand store. She was full of curiosity about this small shop filled with merchandise and had the idea of ​​going treasure hunting.

"Why should I use old things!" Ron's voice sounded from outside the door, his face flushed like a humiliated bull.

Mrs. Weasley tightened the bag in her hand awkwardly, and Robert knew it was Mrs. Weasley's purse.

She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, "Because..." After only one sound, Mrs. Weasley said angrily, "What happened to the old wand? If Fred George hadn't bought you a new one, Yes, you should be using Charlie’s one now!”

"Then bring it to me!" Ron said, "That doesn't cost a Nat?"

Mrs. Weasley pursed her lips and said nothing for a long time. She looked at Ron with a disappointed and blank look, her lips trembled, but she still said nothing.

She stood at the door of the second-hand goods store, pointing to the tattered wooden fence door, "You can either go in and choose an old wand, or you can continue to use the broken one!"

Ron stared at her, breathing heavily, but finally rushed into the second-hand goods market and kicked a copper kettle.

Mr. Venn exclaimed, "Be careful..."

"Ah!!!" Ron fell to the ground, and his right foot swelled up, even bursting his shoe.

"That was a failed swelling potion with serious side effects..." Mr. Wayne's voice came faintly.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Ron shouted angrily, "My feet seem to be broken!"

Mr. Wayne looked at him calmly, "Boy, this is my store. You'd better be polite. I'm not your mother who will spoil a baby like you. Since you have entered my store, you must abide by my rules." Don’t touch, don’t ask too many questions, don’t get angry, do you understand?”

Just as Ron was about to retort, he saw the cold eyes of the store manager in front of him, and a feeling that made him tremble arose spontaneously. Ron subconsciously closed his mouth, not daring to say a word.

"Okay, kids." He helped Ron get rid of the swelling, and Mr. Wayne put on a kind smile, "Do you need anything?"

After leaving the second-hand shop, Ginny looked curiously at Mrs. Weasley who was walking in front. She seemed worried.

"Do you know what happened?" Ginny looked at Robert and Hermione in confusion, "I think there is something wrong with my mother. She seems to be very short of money... I remember that my brothers all earned some endorsement fees before. The family should not Will you be short of money?"

Robert was just about to say that she was overthinking it, but then he remembered that just after the start of last semester, Ron and Harry made a big fuss, resulting in Mr. Weasley being detained at the Ministry of Magic.

They even pooled together some money and asked Mrs. Weasley to pay the fine...

Wait a moment.

Robert then remembered that when he returned to the Burrow this time, many things seemed to be missing, such as the alarm clock that would make a cuckoo fly around the house...

God, they had pooled together 1,580 Galleons!

Isn’t this enough to redeem people?

How much do the vampire grandpas from the Ministry of Magic charge?

Looking at Ginny with an expectant expression, Robert twitched the corner of his mouth. Are you going to tell her that your family's treasury has been completely emptied because of your stupid brother and your favorite Harry?

Will Ginny become depressed because of this?

So, he rolled his eyes and thought of an idea, "Do you want to get a pet?"

Ginny and Hermione were both stunned when they heard this.

"It's best to be an owl. It will be very convenient for sending letters. Of course, cats are also good." Robert tried to change the subject. "If there are other magical creatures, they can be raised on campus as long as they go through some procedures."

Ginny shook her head, "I have no plans to keep pets at the moment."

Hermione looked at the snake on her wrist and said hesitantly, "Although I want to get a cat, but..."

"How about we go take a look?" Robert suggested, and quickly communicated with Mrs. Weasley.

Several people soon came to the magical animal store. There were many animals here. In addition to the common cats, rats, and toads, there were also rabbits, velvets, snails, turtles, two-tailed salamanders, snakes, spiders, etc.

"Okay, dear." The witch shop manager smiled professionally, "Are there any magical creatures you want to take home?"

Robert looked blankly as he watched a white peacock circling in the cage in front of him. Can this thing be kept in school?

Ginny looked at the cattails in the basket with a longing expression, but she quickly restrained herself.

The twins stood in front of a pair of monkeys and whispered, but their eyes were trained on Ginny.

Percy seemed to like the parrot, and couldn't help but reach out to tease it, and then looked away. Although his parents didn't say it clearly, the family's financial situation at this time certainly could not support him to raise such a thing.

Hermione searched among a group of kittens, including black, calico, blue, white, gray, chocolate... It seemed that Robert... was this color?

She stared blankly at the chocolate-colored cat in the cage, a little confused.

I really want to buy it and rub it...

At this moment, a shadow fell from the sky and landed next to Hermione, hitting Ron who was looking around curiously. Then, it landed safely, trotted to Hermione's feet, and squatted down. , looked up at her.

Its movements were agile and fast, and it completed all of this almost instantly, so fast that no one could even notice it.

It was only then that the shopkeeper's lady screamed, "Wait a minute! Crookshanks, you can't jump down like that!"

This cat has a big head, and is covered with fluffy and soft ginger-yellow hair. It has bow-legged legs, and its feet are obviously a bit boxy. It has a big, disk-like face and a flat face, which makes it look a bit ugly.

This is a long-haired Persian cat, but the one that can appear in pet stores cannot be just an ordinary Persian cat. It should be the offspring of a cross between a Persian cat and a catnives.

"Damn it! What kind of monster is this!" Ron yelled and rushed out of the store, as if he was greatly frightened.

Crookshanks' eyes fell on Hermione from beginning to end, as if he refused to accept everyone's invitation, just waiting for this moment to meet.

"I...I want to buy it!"
