Harry Potter: Badger's Flathead

Ivan didn't know how those two naughty kids got to Hogwarts. They didn't see them after the train turned a corner.

At this time, the five people in the carriage were staring at each other, not knowing how to formulate words to talk about the speeding car outside.

"It's quite brave. Well, quite brave." After a long silence, Ivan said this dryly.

"Hopefully they don't get lost."

"May Merlin bless them."

"Evan, you are so mysterious. Just tell us what you have prepared for the dinner~" The conversation returned to the Hufflepuff style.

"No! It would be pointless to tell you in advance, but you can practice using chopsticks. They will be mainly used as tableware for tonight's dinner. If you use them skillfully, you can pick up two more bites of food."

Alvin rejected Cedric's curiosity and instead took out a pair of chopsticks from his arms! All four of them had seen Alvin use this tableware from time to time last semester.

I heard from Alvin that you can eat two more bites with this! Several people started to operate it one after another. From their point of view, it was just two small wooden sticks. What was so difficult about it!

But after they got started, they were mercilessly slapped in the face...

As the sky darkened, the Hogwarts Express arrived. The old students took the Thestral to the castle, while Hagrid still took the new students on the boat.

There were many people this time, but Ivan didn't see Draco and the others, and followed the crowd back to Hogwarts.

"Hello, fat monk, long time no see, hello Baron Nicholas, I haven't seen you for a holiday and you are handsome again... After entering the castle, Ivan greeted the passing ghosts one by one, and ran to the kitchen with wind on his feet.

"Aha! Dear elves, I miss you so much!" Ivan rushed into the kitchen and shouted to the elves.

Ah~ look, how cute these busy little guys are! Hmm~ The aroma of vegetables floating in the air smells really wonderful.

"Welcome back, Alvin!"

"Have a nice holiday, Alvin!"

"Thanks for the recipe."

"Thank you for bringing us new cooking techniques!"

……

The elves greeted Alvin while they were busy. The elves now like this little badger who is very friendly to them.

"Hey, you're welcome. Come on, let me redecorate the kitchen."

Alvin said hello to the elves, then passed through their small bodies and came to the middle wall of the kitchen.

There are several cake oil paintings hanging on the walls here, and Alvin asked Bubu to help hang these oil paintings elsewhere to make a space for him.

Seeing that the spot was free, Ai Wen took out a roll of portraits from his wallet and hung it on the wall, but it would not move.

Then Ivan used magic to set a small platform on the wall under the portrait, and placed two offering plates and a copper incense burner.

The portrait shows a kind old man wearing a red tassel hat and green clothes, holding a long-handled fan. His beard fell to his chest and he wore an amiable smile.

On the left side of the portrait, there is a row of traditional Chinese characters that read "The Chef of Jiutian East ordered Emperor Taiyi Yuan to determine blessings and report to the Good God!"

Then they saw Ivan, who usually took good care of his food, put a stewed meat that was rotten to the bone, a big red elbow on the tribute plate, and also picked some fresh fruits and put them on another plate.

Then Alvin took another cup, poured a glass of single malt whiskey and placed it in front of the altar.

Then, under the curious eyes of the elves, Ivan took out three incense sticks, lit them, and worshiped three times with great piety!

"Bless me, Kitchen God! May my food at Hogwarts be delicious every day!"

I don’t know if this foreign wine is to your liking. You should just go abroad and bless my soul who is far away from home! "

Alvin said it sincerely, but the elves couldn't understand what Alvin was mumbling. It was a language they had never heard before, but they could tell that Alvin attached great importance to it.

After praying, Ivan put the incense in the incense burner and turned to explain to a group of curious elves.

"This is the god in charge of food and drink in the East. The recipes I gave you are under his control.

So please remember to help burn incense for his old man, just like I did just now, so that the fire in our kitchen can be more prosperous, and it is also a way of praying for blessings. "

"Is it like Merlin?" an elf asked curiously.

"It's almost the same, but their status is different, but their attitude of praying for blessings is the same. Do you understand?

In the past, it was Western food and you didn't have to worry about it, but these are oriental food, so in order to make future dishes more delicious, I invited his old man here. "

"We understand, don't worry, leave it to us, Alvin, we will definitely worship this god from the east."

As soon as they heard what Ivan said was so important, the elves immediately became energetic, and they all patted their chests and promised that they would take it seriously.

Seeing this, Alvin also chatted with the elves for a few words and rushed to the auditorium.

This is the case with the elf race. During centuries of slavery, as long as you are kind to them, they will also be sincere to you.

hall--

Alvin returned to Hufflepuff and sat down at the long table. He looked behind him and saw that Harry and Ron were still not there. He hoped that Merlin would bless them after he finished wearing black stockings.

The sorting ceremony began. Looking at a group of scared little carrot heads led by Professor McGonagall, Alvin knew that they were another group of children who had been deceived by the traditions of Hogwarts.

"Rolf Scamander!"

Hearing the Sorting Hat pronounce this name, Alvin suddenly became energetic. ( ?° ?? ?°)?

"This surname must be Newt's grandson! This young man needs to have a good relationship." Ivan started to make friends with the grandson of a giant in the magical animal protection industry in the wizarding world.

"Hufflepuff!" Not surprisingly, like his grandfather, he is also a Hufflepuff.

Amidst the applause of the Hufflepuff seniors, Rolf happily walked to the Hufflepuff table.

Seeing this, Alvin quietly got under the table and walked towards Rove's seat.

Rolf was very happy. He could finally enter Hogwarts, and he entered the same college where his grandfather had been. He had heard from his grandfather that Hufflepuff was the most comfortable college.

"Hello, junior!" Ivan suddenly got out from under the table.

"Ah ha~ roar...ah!!!" (;?;奁;?;.ノ)ノ

Luofu was so frightened that he almost jumped up.

"Sorry for scaring you, junior! My name is Alvin." Alvin apologized for scaring the child.

"It's okay, Chief Ivan, you can call me Rolf."

"Okay, Rolf, let me hear your last name. You are Mr. Newt's grandson."

"Yes, senior."

"Great, you know, I admire the old man very much, and I like those magical animals very much! Let me tell you..."

Ivan quietly pulled Rolf and chatted about home affairs until the sorting was over and Dumbledore stood up to speak.

"Welcome to Hogwarts new students, I have good news for you today, as your second-year seniors, you have caught up with Hogwarts's first welcome feast with changing recipes! Enjoy, yours It’s a brand new experience brought to you by your classmates and elves!”

Dumbledore had already known about the changes to the welcome dinner from the elf. He had enjoyed it in advance during the holidays when the elf was working hard to practice his cooking skills.

He remembered that he had eaten this kind of oriental food in the village under the Kunlun Mountain. Although the dishes were different, the cooking method was the same.

That time, he broke with the most special person and broke the blood oath...

During this holiday, he has become accustomed to this kind of food. If nothing else, just a piece of egg fried rice can make him very happy! Especially those sweet dishes are deeply loved by him.

Dumbledore clapped his hands and the elves served their food! Platefuls of steaming hot and colorful delicacies were served to the table.

These were hard dishes that were served at a banquet level, and the students couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow."

"Don't look at me, you're using your chopsticks!" Seeing that all the students around him were in a daze, Ai Wen took the lead in picking up a piece of elbow skin and beckoned the students to start eating.

"Eat quickly, junior! This is the first time this year has happened!" Ivan urged, looking at Luo Fu who was dazzled and didn't know what to eat.

Since he guessed that many people can't use chopsticks, Ivan asked the elves to make many (Tiger's Mouth Training Chopsticks), an artifact used to teach babies to learn chopsticks in the 21st century.

Serve it with a knife, fork and spoon. If you think you eat slowly, you can use the knife and fork.

I believe that anyone who is not too stupid can know how to use it...

At this moment, Cedric and the four seniors who were in the same carriage as Alvin finally knew why Alvin wanted them to practice chopsticks.

It’s really much more convenient to use chopsticks than a fork to eat this kind of dish! Watching the classmate next to him struggling to pick up some shredded potatoes with a fork, Cedric proudly took a big bite with his already proficient chopsticks!
