Hogwarts lazy snake

In Hagrid's hut, everyone's attention was drawn to the sudden knock on the door. Hagrid's bearded face showed a puzzled look. He scratched the back of his head and muttered, "Who could this be?"

Horn looked at Hagrid, smiled and invited him: "Hagrid, in fact, this time we came here, in addition to visiting you, we also prepared a food party."

"I asked the house-elf Garcia to prepare the ingredients in advance. There is a whole leg of lamb and various barbecue ingredients, as well as fresh vegetables. We would like to borrow the vacant land next to your house to hold this party, and we hope you can join us."

Horn's eyes were full of anticipation. He lowered his head slightly and continued, "Hagrid, I'm really sorry for not discussing this with you in advance, but we really hope that you can share this delicious food with us." After that, Horn looked at Hagrid sincerely again, waiting for his response.

Although Horn felt that Hagrid shouldn't care, he still had to apologize.

Seeing that Hagrid didn't answer immediately, Harry thought that Hagrid wanted to refuse, so he quickly invited him, "Hagrid, you must come! We had agreed to invite you, and this venue was specially prepared by Horn for everyone."

Harry stood up immediately, looking at Hagrid with sincerity in his eyes.

Draco, Ron, Hermione and Carlotta also invited Hagrid. Draco raised his chin slightly and said, "Mr. Hagrid, come join us. You will look forward to the delicious food prepared by Horn."

Ron rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Hagrid, it must be delicious, come on!"

Hermione smiled and nodded, saying, "Hagrid, this will be a very pleasant party."

Carlotta also said gently: "Hagrid, come together."

As everyone invited Hagrid, they began to imagine what delicious food Horn would make.

Hagrid looked at everyone's expectant eyes, laughed, and said, "How could I refuse? And I didn't mean to refuse in the first place, but I didn't have the chance to speak, and you all spoke one by one, so I didn't have a chance to speak."

"Finally, I'm glad to be here with you all."

Hagrid looked at the cute little guys in front of him with an aggrieved look on his face, but he was also happy that Harry could make so many friends.

Hearing Hagrid's agreement, everyone smiled happily and some even jumped for joy.

Hagrid, Horn and the other six walked out of the hut. Garcia saw Hagrid and immediately bowed respectfully, saying, "Hello, dear gamekeeper Mr. Hagrid. I am Garcia, the house-elf of Hogwarts."

"On the orders of Little Wizard Horn, we have brought you the ingredients and utensils needed for the gourmet party."

Garcia turned to Horn and said, "Little Wizard Horn, everything is ready. We are just waiting for you to choose a place."

Horn looked up at Hagrid who was standing beside him. Hagrid waved his hand and said, "Let's do it in the front yard of the cottage."

After getting Horn and Hagrid's consent, Garcia saluted to everyone and then Apparated back to the Hogwarts kitchen.

A short while later, Garcia returned with a few house-elves, carrying barbecue utensils and a rack.

Garcia quickly began to build a pile of firewood. The large one was for Horn to roast the lamb leg, and the smaller one was for cooking and making soup later.

With the help of magic, the house-elves quickly set up everything.

Garcia came to Horn and asked respectfully, "Little Wizard Horn, may I ask if we can start now?"

Horn nodded and said, "We can start now."

Garcia immediately got busy. He first lit a fire on the large pile of firewood, then put the lamb legs on the rack, ready to start roasting them.

At this time, Garcia saw Hagrid wanted to help, so he ran over and said, "Dear Mr. Hagrid, you don't need to help. These are what we should do. Please just take a rest."

Hagrid waved his hand and said, "I want to help, too. This looks interesting."

Garcia said respectfully again: "Mr. Hagrid, we house elves are dedicated to serving our masters from the blood to the spiritual level. Please let us do it."

Hagrid smiled helplessly and gave up the idea of ​​helping.

Garcia ran to Horn to help again. Horn was preparing to make radish and lamb chops stew. When he saw Garcia coming, he was naturally happy to have someone help him.

While directing Garcia, Horn said, "Garcia, cut the radish into small pieces first, and wash the lamb chops and set aside." Garcia immediately followed Horn's instructions. His movements were very quick, and his face was full of a serious expression.

Horn continued: "Then pour some oil into the pan, wait for the oil to heat up, and fry the lamb chops in."

Garcia poured the oil carefully, then put the lamb chops into the pot, keeping his eyes fixed on the lamb chops in the pot, fearing that there would be any mistake.

Horn looked at Garcia's serious expression, smiled and said, "Garcia, don't be so nervous, relax a little." Garcia nodded quickly and said, "Yes, little wizard Horn."

Under Horn's guidance, Garcia successfully completed the preparation of the carrot and lamb chops stew. Now it can be put aside after it is cooked and wait for everyone to taste it.

At this time, other house-elves were also busy preparing various delicacies.

They cleaned the vegetables and cut them into the right size for grilling, and some elves prepared the seasonings and made sure they were just right.

Hagrid looked at the busy house-elves and said with emotion: "These elves are really hardworking."

Hermione also nodded and said, "Yes, I learned from the books that they are always so dedicated."

It was also clear that although they were similar to the goblins seen in Gringotts, they were two different species.

Draco looked at Garcia's humble attitude towards Horn, and Horn did not give any commanding instructions to these Hogwarts elves.

He was a little surprised. He had always thought that house elves were low-level creatures, and it was natural for them to be so loyal and humble to their masters. He had never expected that Horn would treat them so normally, and it would not be an exaggeration to even say that he treated them equally.

He couldn't help but think in his heart that Horn had some tricks to make the house elf so obedient. Maybe he had some qualities that he could learn a lot from. Draco raised his chin slightly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Ron couldn't wait to look at the roasted lamb leg, his eyes fixed on it, and there seemed to be a hint of glitter at the corners of his mouth. Hermione gently pushed Ron and said with a helpless smile: "Ron, can you stop looking so greedy?"

Ron didn't care at all and said, "Such a big leg of lamb must be delicious. I can't wait."

Harry also looked at the leg of lamb, his eyes full of anticipation.

However, when Horn saw Hagrid's huge physique, he seemed to have thought of something, and was secretly glad that he agreed to let Garcia stay to help.

Horn called Garcia over and said, "Garcia, go buy another leg of lamb."

Garcia replied respectfully, "Little Wizard Horn, we prepared a whole sheep. I had planned to make one for the professors of the school after this party based on the skills I learned from you."

Hearing Garcia's words, Horn suddenly felt sad in his heart that he was indeed not as thoughtful as these house-elves who served wizards.

Thinking about how the professors at the school have been very caring towards him since he entered school, Horn immediately said, "Then let's just use the remaining parts of the sheep to make it together, so that we don't have to make it so troublesome later. And call a few more house elves to come over and help with the study."

Garcia took the order and left, and soon returned with more house-elves and the remaining parts of the sheep.

Horn looked at Harry, Draco and the others who were watching curiously, and said with a smile: "Come on, let's help with some small tasks like watching the fire."

Harry and the others readily agreed. They felt a little guilty because they thought they could not help. After all, they were all at the party together, and Horn could not be the only one to do the work. Even Hagrid, who was considered the host, helped. It would be unreasonable for them not to help.

Everyone gathered around the fire, chatting and helping each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
