Hogwarts executioner
Chapter 17 Family Gathering
Old Daniel looked even older. After leaving most of the ranch affairs to Allen and Catherine, the church in the town became the place he went to most. Allen spent three days fishing and two days drying nets. Catherine was in control of the actual operation of the ranch.
William sometimes saw some magazines and books about finance, law, and policy in Catherine's room, but he didn't take it to heart. The town of Woking is only a few dozen kilometers away from London, but the political distance is too far.
If there is no accident, it is estimated that William's family will hardly be on the stage in London.
Due to Selina's repeated requests, Daniel took Catherine, William, and Ellen to attend the family celebrations of his uncle Angus Clark.
Uncle Angus has worked in the Management and Personnel Bureau under the General Office for nearly 11 years. The General Office is led by the Cabinet Secretary under the guidance of the Prime Minister and is responsible for the organization and management of civil servants, as well as the recruitment, training, and important appointments of civil servants. Belongs to a very important and powerful department.
It's just that Angus was vacant. He was a little reluctant to part with this key department, and worried that if the transfer application received special care from the female prime minister, it would be even more miserable.
Even so, Anne and old Clark were the only ones in the Clark family who didn't hold their heads up.
It was the first time for the two families to get together, and Allen specially brought some specialties from the ranch.
For example, William himself prepares braised pork and braised eggs based on the recipe he purchased.
After last Christmas, William had long wanted to change his taste, and after showing off his extraordinary barbecue skills, he finally got permission to use the kitchen to make some food.
From then on, braised pork was brought to the Smith family's dining table, which also allowed William to get rid of the nightmare of potatoes and bread.
Angus London's house is not big, it is a small villa with 3 floors above the ground, with a small garden and a semi-underground garage.
The so-called family gathering means having a meal together and chatting in the hall.
After noon, cousin Anne pestered William to ask for a story, and it must be the story of the magical wizard Merlin and King Arthur's adventures together.
She admires William very much, and every time William comes to Angus's house as a guest, she asks him to tell her various "magical" stories.
"William, Anne will also become a wizard in the future, and I will fly to the moon." Anne nestled on William's left side and said with a longing look on her face.
"Oh, okay." William patted the little girl on the shoulder, encouraging her solemnly.
The rich play money, the poor play mutation.
Ordinary people naturally awaken to become wizards, it depends on luck, without the blood of wizards, this is a very small probability of genetic mutation.
Cousin Grace held the toy and said loudly, "Stupid, there are no wizards or witches in this world, let alone fly to the moon."
"Americans flew to the moon, Grace," William said.
"That's impossible, the plane can't leave Earth," Grace insisted.
"Grace, you are so smart, but the rocket can leave the earth and fly to the moon." Serena heard their quarrel and came out at the right time to explain.
Aunt Serena and Catherine have quite different looks. Except for the fact that their hair is blond, Catherine has an oval face, while Serena prefers a square face. What William didn't like even more was that this aunt liked plastic surgery and had a knife on her face.
"Sister, you should let William come to study in the city. I can help you introduce the school. He can't read dirty stories about wizards in that country ranch every day. Look at him, he is already fascinated, and he actually remembers so many False story.”
Serena's tone was full of pity, and her eyes were a little distressed.
Ao Hai laughed at William's knowledge of the sea, and he didn't know whether to laugh at Serena or William.
Catherine has long been accustomed to it. She said meaningfully: "William likes those things. He always has his own ideas. I have to respect his opinions. And some things are not as simple as what we see. I still remember when I was a child, my father also gave me Shall we tell the story of Merlin? Every king needs a wizard advisor."
Serena looked at her sister, and couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Dad, you still remember, I forgot all about it. He must have been so busy in the House of Lords that he forgot that there are two poor son-in-laws." Waiting for him to rescue."
Drinking tea at the side, Angus coughed hard twice, and said: "William is very smart, Catherine, Alan, I think you should seriously consider Serena's opinion, I know several private primary school principals."
Serena smiled and said, "If you're worried about expenses, Angus can help with the loan and help Alan find a good job."
Alan, who was drinking a glass of beer, almost choked when he heard the words. He didn't even look at the wet marks on his beer belly. When he was about to speak, he found his wife had already spoken.
Catherine said: "I'm not worried about expenses. My mother gave me some shares a long time ago. The dividends have been good in the past few years, with hundreds of thousands each year."
Serena's face froze for a moment, and she said dryly, "That's good."
William's eyes were sharp after he entered the sixth level. Even without turning on his 360-degree innate vision, he could still see that the dressed aunt was holding the leather coat tightly with her hands, squeezing the originally flat leather into ugly wrinkles. .
Angus looked at William who continued to tell the story to Annie, and asked, "William, do you want to come to London to go to school?"
William didn't expect that these elders would bring the fire to his side. He had long been preparing to enter Hogwarts to go to school. How could he come to London, the most red-dusted metropolis?
"No, I'm going to magic school and become a powerful wizard."
"Hahaha." Serena was amused by William's words, thinking she had won the round.
Allen smiled ninjaly, clinked the wine glass with Angus, and drank it in one sip.
Catherine also allowed her sister to be complacent and turned a blind eye to the little emotions inside and outside her words.
"I want to go too, and I want to become a wizard." Annie quickly raised her little hand and said loudly.
"Anne, my daughter, come to mother. You are going to be a princess and marry Prince Charming, not some witch."
Serena opened her hands and asked her daughter to leave William.
Unexpectedly, Annie was not happy, she turned around and hugged William, muttering: "I don't want to be a princess, I want to learn the flying spell and transfiguration."
"William, you've taught Annie badly." 9-year-old Grace sat next to Annie, holding the newly acquired Transformers Optimus Prime in his left hand and a toy plastic sword in his right.
"William, your wizard will definitely not be able to defeat Optimus Prime."
William said: "The great wizard can do it. Merlin can summon a twelve-meter-tall stone giant."
Grace was slightly stunned, looked at the toy in his hand, and was immediately frustrated.
