HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation
Chapter 141 8 Years Old and Fireplace
Xia packed her luggage, sat on the sofa with her suitcase, and waited for the Priests to pick her up.
As for why they didn't go directly from the fireplace to the manor, Xia and Andeko had something to say. I still remember that it was an autumn when James went on a trip abroad with the Potters. At that time, Anna and Lawrence went to a friend's house for something. Before leaving, they asked the two children if they wanted to go with them. But without James as a playmate, the little ones were not interested in anything and refused their parents' request.
The two bored people collapsed in the living room, even rolling on the floor lost their original fun. At this time, Xia thought that they could go to their grandparents or grandparents to play.
Ender: "Have you forgotten? My grandparents went to the Brazilian rain forest with Mr. Scamander, just the day before yesterday."
"Oh, yes, yes. They also said they must find the Flame Slug for us." Xia slammed her fist on her palm, remembering this. "Then we go to our grandparents' house? They shouldn't have followed us, right?"
Xia was a little uncertain when she said the last sentence. You know, these older wizards love to go outside the most. In their words, the children have grown up and they can finally go out and play without any worries. In the past, they were always worried that Anna or Lawrence would starve to death at home when they went out to play.
Anna, Lawrence: I've seen you guys go out a lot!!! These are all excuses!
Ender made the final decision and decided to go to Priest Manor without hesitation.
"What if they're not home?" Sia asked.
"Anyway, Karl is here, don't worry."
Carl is the house elf of Priest Manor. He is very enthusiastic towards Xia and Ander. Every time they go to the manor to play, he will always be very active in preparing their favorite cookies and cakes. It can be said that with him around, there is nothing to worry about even if the elders are not around.
Xia and Ander also thoughtfully left an "adventure" note, which read: Dear Mom and Dad, we have decided to go on an adventure. Don't worry, our destination is Priest Manor, and Carl will take good care of us.
The note was placed in the most conspicuous place, and Anna's favorite cup was used to press it. Ander finished everything and clapped his hands: "Okay, Dad will change his shoes here when he comes home, he will definitely see it. Even if he doesn't see it, there is Mom's favorite cup, she will definitely notice it."
When everything was ready, Ander and Xia entered the fireplace one after another and headed for their destination, Priest Manor.
The moment Ender reached the fireplace of Priest Manor, he realized something was wrong. He staggered out of the fireplace. The huge smoke and dust made Ender somewhat disoriented. The small dust particles that floated into his nose made Ender sneeze uncontrollably. When he opened his mouth, more dust was inhaled into his mouth. He bent down and could not stop coughing.
What bad luck! Ender wailed in his heart. If he hadn't been coughing so hard that he couldn't speak, he would have complained loudly about the fireplace!
When he was coughing so hard that he forgot everything, Xia fell out of the fireplace. Her condition was not much better. The smoke and dust that had not yet dispersed also made Xia want to stop coughing. In between coughing, Ander took the time to look at Xia. She was fine, with spider webs all over her head.
He really wanted to laugh out loud, it was so embarrassing. Xia saw through Ander's intention, she glared at Ander and pointed at his head. Ander reached out and grabbed a handful, well, his head was also full of spider webs.
Fortunately, the two people's embarrassment did not last long. The violent coughing almost woke up all the living and non-living creatures in the manor.
Carl appeared at this time, screaming loudly, grabbing his big ears with both hands, his eyes full of fear, self-blame, surprise and excitement. At this time, Xia and Ander had no time to pay attention to Carl's emotional palette. They gestured to Carl as if they saw a savior, first pointing to his head, then to his throat, and then to the fireplace that was still blowing smoke rings.
Because they couldn't speak, they really hoped that Carl could understand these signs. Fortunately, Carl was a clever elf. He snapped his fingers, and the dust in the air disappeared. With another snap, Xia and Ander returned to their clean state, but their coughs were beyond Carl's ability to handle.
"Oh, it's all Carl's fault. It was Carl who didn't clean the fireplace that caused Master Ander and Miss Xia to keep coughing. Carl couldn't let Master Ander and Miss Xia stop coughing. My poor Master Ander and Miss Xia."
Carl was about to punish himself. Compared to Ander, Xia had recovered. She stopped Carl in time, "Stop! Stop! I order you not to punish yourself."
Carl, who was stopped, looked at Xia with his big copper bell-like eyes. He said hoarsely: "Kind Miss Xia!"
"Okay, Carl." Xia coughed twice again, "Can you pour us two glasses of water?"
"Of course! Carl is willing to serve Miss Xia and Master Ander!"
Carl disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was holding the cups that belonged to Xia and Ander. After taking the cups and drinking the water, the two little wizards felt much better.
Even though they made quite a commotion, their grandparents still didn't show up. Ander asked, "Where are the grandparents?"
"The master and mistress are out, going to the tropical rain forest in Brazil with Mr. and Mrs. Hopps!" Carl answered actively.
Hearing this, Xia and Ander both said "Oh" with regret. Although they had already prepared themselves for them not to be at the manor, they were still inevitably disappointed to hear the news.
"Merlin, I shudder to think there's so much ash in this fireplace!"
The two of them didn't think about it anymore. They couldn't just go to Brazil and call back their grandparents, so they started making a series of complaints about the fireplace.
"I can't believe my grandparents didn't use this fireplace?"
"Grown-ups are always Apparating here and there, can't they please think about us? We don't even have wands, are they going to let us go out on foot? How annoying." Ender raised his fist angrily and protested.
Carl couldn't help but want to say something fair for his master, but these words sounded like he was refuting his little masters. Oh, he was such a bad elf, Carl hated himself in his heart.
Ender noticed that Carl's face was red because he was holding back his words. He put down the cookies he was stuffing into his mouth one by one and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Carl? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No! Carl is not feeling unwell." Carl denied hastily, "Carl is a bad elf. Master Ander cares about Carl, but Carl wants to refute Master Ander. Carl is a bad elf!"
Once he started talking, Carl couldn't stop scolding himself. Ander and Xia had to comfort Carl, and then they learned from Carl why the fireplace was not cleaned.
Because the Priests often traveled, Carl was the only elf in the manor. It was too much work for him to clean the whole manor, so they reduced Carl's cleaning scope. Fireplace? No one came, no cleaning. Portrait? No one looked, no wiping. Storage room? No one went, no cleaning...
But Carl was a dedicated elf. Except for the fireplace because no one used it, he cleaned other places carefully. No one expected that two little uninvited guests would appear.
The unlucky Ander and Xia snorted and were a little annoyed. Ander said unhappily, "Then I guess the only fireplace that can compare to this one is the one at Hopes Manor. My grandparents are often not at home either."
When Anna and Lawrence Apparated to the manor to pick them up, they heard Ander's words and looked curious: "What happened?"
Xia also gave an unpleasant explanation, and then received two unreliable adults squatting on the ground and laughing wildly.
This made Xia and Ander feel even more depressed. After saying goodbye to Carl, they followed their parents home listlessly and planned to take a good bath. They always felt that there were still some spider webs stuck on their bodies.
