The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

On an ordinary afternoon in late June 1989, Sun Zhu was combing Yuanbao's hair in a casual manner.

That's when the owl came, a screech owl, with a wax-stamped envelope. It tapped the window of her room, then rudely took the cookies from her plate and left the envelope behind.

"I don't think I've seen this owl before... Who sent me the letter?" She muttered and glanced at the owl's departing back, somewhat confused.

Then Sun Zhu's eyes fell on the letter. After seeing the shield pattern of four animals surrounded by it on the envelope, she finally reacted.

"Lion, Eagle, Badger, Snake, Hogwarts acceptance letter, you are finally here."

She suppressed her excitement and looked at the dark green address on the envelope:

"To Miss Zhu Sun, in the middle room on the second floor, 98 Rose Avenue, Durham, England."

"Xiao Tongzi, I'm going to school." Sun Zhu finally felt relieved and held the letter in her hand, just like she was holding her college admission letter.

She carefully tore open the envelope and saw two neatly written pieces of paper, which read:

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore

(Merlin, First Class, Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot, President of the International Confederation of Wizards)

…………

After reading the contents of the letter several times, Sun Zhu's heart strangely calmed down.

"Next, when dad comes back, he can take me to Diagon Alley to buy everything."

She stretched and began to think about some questions: "I should be in the same class with Sayid and the twins. Besides them, who will be my 'old friends' in the same class? Also, who will be the teacher of the first-year Defense Against the Dark Arts class?"

Defense Against the Dark Arts, a course that changes teachers at a rate of one year.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is the most dangerous position in Hogwarts.

I hope her teacher can be more reliable, at least not like Quirrell and Lockhart, who are both unreliable and unlucky.

I don't expect him to be as kind and reliable as Lupin, but he should at least have the business level of fake Moody Little Barty.

There were also her future classmates. She didn't know which college she would go to yet, but there weren't that many students in each class at Hogwarts. After studying together for seven years, they would always be familiar with each other. So no matter where she went, she would have a lot of friends.

"Host, have you started to think about making new friends?" The system asked doubtfully, "You said a few months ago that you regretted making so many friends because it would be difficult to choose the right gifts for them."

"Ah this..." Sun Zhu scratched his head awkwardly, "Xiao Tongzi, don't take it so seriously, I was just saying it casually. Besides, making friends can't be done one-sidedly, I just don't mean to be a loner, let it be...let it be."

She suddenly glanced at Yuanbao who was dozing off on the side and thought of something important.

"Dad said he would give me an owl as a gift when I start school, but can I take two pets to Hogwarts at the same time?"

She hesitated, but heard Yuanbao say, "I don't want to go, let me stay at home."

"Why don't you want to go? Am I being mean to you?" Sun Zhu was a little depressed. "I know. If you stay at home, your dad won't force you to lose weight, right?"

She secretly clenched her fists and said, "I've decided. I don't need an owl. I'll just take Yuanbao with me. The school also has owls that can help with mailing letters. I don't necessarily need one. If I really need one, don't we still have Little Jerry?"

Cedric will bring that Tom Buster!

If you ask him to lend it to you, he will definitely not refuse!

When Sun Zhengxing got home from get off work, the first thing he did was to ask her if she had received the letter from Hogwarts. After all, the children of other colleagues in the Ministry of Magic had received it today.

Sun Zhu handed him the letter. He took it and studied it for a long time. He said with an expression that missed his youth, "Before I received this letter, I always suspected that I was a monster. I was irritable and blamed myself. I thought that if it wasn't for me, my parents wouldn't have to give up their stable jobs in China and immigrate to this unfamiliar place."

Sun Zhu was stunned for a moment, but he smiled and touched his head and said, "Fortunately, the appearance of Hogwarts made me realize that there are many people like me in this world. So I am just different from ordinary people, not a monster..."

"Dad..." Sun Zhu choked up a little. He had never said these words to her before. He didn't expect that it was for this reason that his grandparents came here from China.

So there really is no magic school in China, only Eastern magic.

But the magic riot that Dad had back then wasn’t classified as a fairy magic riot, so they must have spent a lot of effort to figure out what was going on.

I heard that my grandparents were scholars back then, and they were forced to accept these things that were inconceivable to them. It must have been very difficult but also great.

She reached out and gently held her father's shoulders, and heard him say sullenly: "This is why I must bring you back. I did nothing wrong, right?"

"Ah? What are you coming back for?" Sun Zhu was a little confused.

"Nothing, just get ready. I'll take you to Diagon Alley tomorrow and buy all the things mentioned above." He quickly returned to normal and shook the admission letter in his hand at her.

"Okay, dad, I have to tell you that I plan to take Yuanbao to school. You can also buy an owl, but just leave it at home. I won't bring her. After all, Yuanbao is too clingy to me, and I'm afraid she'll be jealous." She touched the fat cat, which felt much thicker, seriously and ignored the fat cat's complaints.

Sun Zhengxing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Ah Zhu."
