HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

Chapter 4 About Invitation

"Dear Sirius

...It's Ander's and my birthday in three days. I hope you can come to our house and spend it with us. ...

ps. Ander also wrote you a letter, but, would you please accept my invitation?

Your friend, Sia"

After writing the letter, Xia carefully tied it to Hess's leg. Hess was the owl her parents gave her. Hess lowered her head and ate the cookies prepared by her owner. After hearing Xia's words, she flapped her wings and flew out.

Now it has been a week since they met in Diagon Alley, and during this time, Xia and Sirius have been writing letters to each other. Xia will tell Sirius as soon as she encounters something happy, and when Sirius writes back, Xia has encountered other interesting things. There is always a time difference between them, which makes Xia a little distressed.

Sirius must have sent the letter as soon as he received it, as you can tell by the half-dried ink on it. It would be nice to have something to chat with, Xia thought as she watched Hess leave.

Time quickly came to the next day. Xia had been waiting for the owl to bring the reply she had been longing for, but a long time passed and there was no movement.

Xia suddenly sat up straight and slapped her head. How could she have forgotten this! She remembered that Sirius had written at the end of the last letter: "I was almost discovered by Walburga. Kreacher has been keeping an eye on my room recently. Rael - my brother Regulus, he should know that I was writing letters and has been helping me to lure Kreacher away, but he doesn't know who I was writing to."

Merlin, how come he looks like a spy on an undercover mission? This was Xia's first reaction when she saw the letter. Ander seemed much more excited. He kept saying it was so cool and even wanted to work with James to rescue the "princess" trapped in Grimmauld Place.

"Xia." Mrs. Hopps came over at this time and interrupted Xia who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa.

Mrs. Hopps is a beautiful and generous witch. Before she married Mr. Hopps, she came from the Purest family, a family whose surname alone represents purity - unlike the purity of the Black family, they do not object to marrying non-pure-blood wizards, but the family is still sparse. In Mrs. Hopps' generation, she is the only child.

They have always been low-key and neutral and never participated in the activities of pure-blood families, but they would send them invitations to every pure-blood family gathering, but they were all rejected. Despite this, there was still a steady stream of letters, as if inviting the Priest family could demonstrate their status as a pure-blood family - meaning that they could maintain a close relationship with a low-key family.

"Mom!" Xia jumped off the sofa and shouted.

"What are you thinking about?" Anna hugged her daughter who ran to her arms. She couldn't help but raised her hand to touch Xia's head. Suddenly, she had some bad thoughts. She said, "Andre told me that Sirius would definitely accept his invitation."

Sure enough, Xia's attention was attracted. She stopped rubbing in her mother's arms and looked up. She found that her mother's expression did not seem to be deceiving. She immediately became alert and broke away from Anna's arms and ran to the room, saying, "Damn it, it was obviously me who knew Sirius first!"

Xia decided that she would write another letter and have Archie, Ender's owl, deliver it. Ha, now Ender has no owl to deliver letters to! See how he invites Sirius!

Ever since that day when James pestered Sirius for his address so that they could keep in touch, Ender and Sirius suddenly became like brothers for some reason, and James was jealous of this for a long time.

Sometimes he said that Ender had forgotten about him because he had a new brother, and sometimes he said that Sirius was the happiest person chatting with him at the beginning, but now he communicates with Ender all day long.

And these are obviously what Xia wants to say the most!

Merlin, don't think she doesn't know. At the beginning, Ander was also secretly angry with James and Sirius, but now the three of them are as close as a pair of pants. Ander even wanted to invite Sirius first. It's too much!

"Isn't it fun to see Xia and Ander quarreling?" Lawrence had been watching from the side since his wife called Xia.

At first he was a little confused. Was he not paying enough attention to Ander recently? How come he didn't know Ander was going to invite his friends first? After Xia left, Lawrence noticed the smile in his wife's eyes. He immediately knew that it was just a little joke to amuse the child.

Anna was about to refute Lawrence when she was interrupted by a loud quarrel coming from upstairs.

"What?! Sirius promised you? Why hasn't he replied to my letter yet!" Ender's voice penetrated the whole house.

"Lululu..." Xia made a face. She said that her previous plan had not been implemented yet, but she saw Sirius's owl flying over. She opened the envelope and saw the first sentence was that Sirius accepted her invitation.

The quarrel continued upstairs, but Lawrence and Anna laughed.

"Isn't this very interesting?" Now Anna could finally answer Lawrence's question.

Lawrence didn't say anything after hearing this, but Anna knew that her husband liked to watch these little excitements just like her, and even often made the scene more chaotic. For example, he went upstairs with bad intentions just now.

How could he become a father when he was a naughty boy in school? It's a pity that outsiders will never see the other side of Mr. Hopps, who is reliable, gentle and calm. For example, he is good at adding fuel to the fire when the children quarrel.

Hearing the noises upstairs getting louder and louder, Anna felt that she couldn't let them continue arguing. She came to the second-floor corridor, where Xia and Andre were arguing fiercely. But children are children, and they kept saying things like "She's my best friend" and "She's not yours, she's mine."

"Andre, Xia." As soon as Anna's voice came out, the two children suddenly quieted down. This only meant that they would stop verbally attacking each other, but their eye contact was still intense.

Anna saw the "war" between the two children. If they continued to quarrel, it might affect their relationship. Anna came up with an idea: "Do you want to make the cake yourself this time?"

Ander and Xia's eyes suddenly lit up, and they went from staring at each other to looking at each other in surprise.

At that moment, Xia thought a lot. She thought that it would be better to ask Ander to help her than to make the cake by herself. This suggestion was really tempting! Although she would not be rejected if she asked her parents for help, Ander was stupid and would only make her parents busier. It would be better to let Ander help her to save her parents from being even busier.

Ander was also thinking carefully, should he do it alone or with Xia? Although his mother did not specify whether it was one person or two people, as a brother, he should still take care of his sister, after all, Xia looked clumsy.

For a moment, the brother and sister's thoughts strangely overlapped. Perhaps it was the tacit understanding of twins. They said at the same time: "I want to be with Ander/Xia!"

As expected, Xia still thinks about me. Hearing Xia's words, Ander was a little moved. So why should I quarrel with Xia? No matter who invites Sirius, he will come to play at home.

After figuring it out, Ander felt a little strange. He didn't want to quarrel, but was just a little surprised. Why did they start quarreling after his father came? Sure enough, his father didn't know how to comfort people. He was the only reliable boy in the family!

After the quarrel, Xia returned to the room and carefully read Sirius's reply. It was no different from the previous ones: his uncle Alphard secretly gave him a small Muggle toy when he visited their house. He thought it was very interesting, but his family didn't like Muggle things, so he had to hide it and play with it secretly when no one was around.

At the end of the letter, Sirius added, "Can I come with Regulus?"

Xia has always been curious about Regulus, not only because Sirius described him in the letter as "mother's good boy" and "very clingy when he was a child", but more because he was the unsung hero and silent warrior in the original work.

But she thought she could tell that the current Regulus was not actually the same person in the book.

She has been doing well in this regard, since she came here, met James and Sirius, and soon met Regulus. She knew that she was far away from the main timeline, but this also gave her room to play, and she could do a lot. At least the friendship she had with James since childhood told her that she didn't want James to be hit by the killing curse and die at such a young age.

Maybe this time Harry can grow up in the love of his parents, godfather and Remus.
