When Sun Zhengxing arrived at Digory's house with the morning dampness all over him, only the hostess Fiona was busy in the house.

Although this had nothing to do with him as a disturbing guest, he still shook his head in his heart.

Is this how the male owner usually ignores household chores and leaves all the chores to his wife? Think about Amos's figure...

The boys in the family are also ignorant of the world and don’t know how to share the burden with their mothers. Do they think that all this is natural and reasonable?

If this is the family atmosphere in Diggory's house, then it means that his intuition and persistence have always been correct.

If Azhu was really abducted by the Digory boy, she would have to get up early during the holidays to take care of two "children", one big and one small, and the one who would receive the guests would be her own precious daughter!

He would never allow this to happen!

Even if the host and hostess have decent jobs and friendly personalities, even if the boy himself is well-off... only the father who is devoted to his daughter knows to see the essence through appearances.

After returning, he still needs to test Ah Zhu's intentions, but he can't be too hasty. The child is grown up, and it would be terrible if he had rebellious thoughts and insisted on going against him.

With such complicated feelings, Sun Zhengxing did not show it on his face, and just said casually: "Mrs. Diggory, my Ah Zhu caused trouble to you and Amos yesterday. If there is anything wrong, it is because I spoiled her too much at home and never taught her how to worry about others. Please forgive me. Taking care of her and Miss Bulstrode is my duty, how can I have the nerve to let you continue to spend this effort for me... It is really amazing that you manage such a big family by yourself. When my Ah Zhu grows up, if she has one ten-thousandth of your ability, I will be satisfied."

Fiona raised her eyebrows in surprise. "You don't have to be so polite. I didn't do anything. Zhu and Delphine are not a bother at all. You don't know that I usually spend my time at home besides doing my own things, watering the flowers and grass. Amos takes care of all the work, and Ced is in Hogwarts. I am so bored that I can only talk to owls. Now that they are here, it is much more fun."

At this point, she sighed sadly: "In fact, even if Said came back home, I would still be bored... This child is really restless. Sometimes when I get up, I find that my flowers and plants have been taken care of by him. My only pleasure has also been deprived by him. I really hope he stays in school and doesn't come back."

Sun Zhengxing half opened his mouth and for a moment forgot what he wanted to say.

"Ah, I really shouldn't have scolded them like that." She seemed to feel that she had said something wrong and shook her head a little embarrassedly. "My mother is a Muggle. Although she died very early, I still remember the lessons she taught me. She told me that it is not worthwhile to waste time serving others - unless the other party pays the corresponding compensation. Amos has hired some wizards for housekeeping services. He would rather spend a few Sickles than let me do all these hard work. Of course, it is not convenient to let the neighbors know about this, after all... However, at least I can still find some fun in cooking. Unfortunately, only Amos can give me some advice. Ced is always worried that if he eats up all the food I cook like his father, he will have the same body as him in the future."

Sun Zhengxing couldn't help but smile and nodded slowly. He looked around the neatly arranged interior without leaving any trace, and his mind was full of thoughts.

"Look at me. I've been bored for too long and have become such a chatterbox." Fiona frowned in distress again. "I hope you won't be bothered by me."

"Oh, no, you are quite right... Wizard housekeeping is a very good choice. I knew that Muggles had this kind of profession, but I didn't expect that wizards also had it."

"Some Squibs in wizard families provide such services. I also learned about this from Amos." Fiona smiled and said, "You just said that you hope Zhu will learn to worry about others and do housework. I think this is unnecessary. She is so smart, why should she waste her time on such repetitive and mechanical things? She should choose a more creative job. Of course, I don't think doing housework is worthless, but people should always choose a life that they are better at and more interested in, right?"

Sun Zhengxing smiled noncommittally. He certainly understood this truth, and those were not his true words. His daughter should live her own life, instead of doing things for others in a stereotyped way.

"I'm telling you this because Zhu doesn't have a mother around her... I think her mother also wants her to live a comfortable life, and that's what I hope for Sai De." Fiona poured a cup of hot tea for Sun Zhengxing. "I know this is a bit presumptuous, but when you meet a child you like, you can't help yourself."

"I understand what you mean. I think the same as you do." Sun Zhengxing finally sighed, "Sometimes I also wonder if I am doing my job as a father. I worry whether she will feel lonely."

"You can bring her here to play often. Molly's children always make people around them feel genuinely curious and happy." Fiona comforted: "When Ced was a child, I was also worried that he would be lonely. I often wondered if he would be happier with brothers and sisters."

Sun Zhengxing nodded subconsciously, and after a moment he suddenly seemed to remember something, and his heart, which had gradually calmed down, was lifted up again.

"Having many children is certainly a lot of fun, but it is such a burden for the hostess! Even female wizards, whose physical fitness is stronger than Muggles, still..."

You can’t have so many children! Do you still want your body and life? He who can’t have children thinks it’s too terrible!

Seeing Sun Zhengxing's tone suddenly become serious, Fiona finally succeeded in getting confused. An idea suddenly flashed through her mind, but her reason quickly told her that this was unscientific. She was just a teenage girl, and her father was at most worried about whether there would be boys bullying her. How could he think so far?

Sun Zhengxing also realized that his tone was a little inappropriate, and quickly adjusted his expression: "Well, of course, I'm not saying that it's wrong to do this, I'm..."

It's strange, what happened to him so early in the morning!

It must be because John said too many weird things to him last night. The Fawcett man was crying and smelling of alcohol. He was crying bitterly about how he regretted not being able to take care of his family when he worked at Gringotts when he was young. He felt sorry for Jenny who had worked so hard to raise two children...

When Sun Zhu and Fei Na went downstairs, they saw her old father with a stiff expression for the first time, and their hearts skipped a beat.

Oh no, did she anger him by staying at someone else's house after drinking?

How was she exposed?

She slowly moved in front of him, while gazing at his expression. When Sun Zhengxing raised his eyes, he saw his daughter staring at him cautiously and pitifully, and instantly felt that he couldn't stay here any longer! Originally, he had a lot to say, but in the end, he only summed it up in one sentence.

"Azhu, let Daddy take you home."

Every wizard family here is so scary!
