Portraits can also speak and move. If you don't know exactly which one it is or the other party actively informs you, then you can't recognize it at all. "
"Then why..." Harry hesitated, and asked, "You should have been very old when you died, but you looked less than 30 years old after you were resurrected?" He had never heard of this kind of magic, probably Neither did Hermione in her previous life, so she didn't understand many questions.
"It's related to magic power," Salazar explained. "The stronger the magic power, the easier it is to be at the peak age after resurrection."
Harry looked at his extremely handsome face with embarrassment, and couldn't help thinking, so, has Master Snake Zu's strength become abnormal?
"Listen to me," Salazar put the cup in his hand on the stone table. At this time, the weather was getting hotter, and the shade of the trees began to be unable to block the scorching sun. He cast a cooling spell on the two of them, and then continued. : "Godric probably guessed that I would come back to find him, so he left some clues to find his soul, but he was worried that others would find out, so he kept the information very carefully."
"What do I need to do?" Harry asked, there was absolutely no need for the Snake Ancestor to tell him this if it had nothing to do with him.
Salazar said: "What he left behind is a bunch of clues similar to a puzzle game, which are very complicated, and some of them need white magic supplies. I am a pure black wizard. If possible, I hope you can help me."
Harry nodded and was about to agree when the house-elf from Potter Manor rushed up to them and interrupted his conversation with Salazar.
The house-elf shouted to Harry out of breath, "Master, it's...it's a fight!"
Harry looked bewildered.
"What's the fight?" Salazar didn't understand, except for the two of the living people in the whole manor, only Severus was left. Who could he fight with?
"Mr. Snape, and... a portrait of Master James."
Harry: "..." Are you kidding me, how much enmity is there between the professor and his father, how can they not let each other go without turning into portraits?

☆、Chapter 56
When Harry and Salazar rushed to that room, Snape and James Potter were pointing their wands at each other, looking like they were about to duel.
Harry was very embarrassed, and subconsciously glanced at his mother, the intention of asking was obvious.
Lily shrugged helplessly, and then said: "Severus and I had a good chat, he woke up suddenly, and after listening to a few words, he became like this."
"What did I hear?!" James was obviously irritated, "The snot guy actually said he likes Harry!"
Originally, Snape and Lily were not talking loudly, and James was in a coma again. Snape spoke at ease, so besides apologizing for what happened back then, he took the initiative to tell Lily all the past experiences between himself and Harry, and it was Lily, who knew everything, was amazed and grateful to him for taking care of her son for many years. Snape was indeed at fault for what happened back then, but he couldn't be completely blamed.Knowing that Snape blamed himself all his life for her and James' deaths, Lily, who is warm and kind by nature, couldn't bear it.
After getting Lily's forgiveness, Snape was finally completely relieved. Seeing that James was still fainting, he told Lily about his relationship with Harry.Unexpectedly, James suddenly woke up at this time, so...
Although not fully aware of these circumstances, Harry still chose to firmly defend his lover. He shouted at James' portrait: "I like Severus too!"
Now, a group of portraits exploded.The Potter family is a Gryffindor family. The family members are pure and enthusiastic, and they never like to hide their thoughts. Besides, there has been no newcomer in this family for nearly ten years, so when the relationship between Harry and Snape was exposed, the portraits were more than a little bit different. I'm even more excited when I'm in love.
reason?Nothing, they finally have new gossip!
Harry looked awkwardly at the ancestors who kept giving them opinions and suggestions, and couldn't help asking his stepfather for help.
Salazar laughed, and then said to James: "Harry and Severus have been in love for a long time, and I don't think there is anything inappropriate about them."
The word "feeling in love" made James look as ugly as if he had swallowed a bucket of slugs, but considering that the person standing in front of him who said this was a snake ancestor, he certainly didn't think he could object.
"What do you mean?" Salazar asked, turning to Lily.
Lily's bright smile remained the same: "As long as they are happy."
Salazar looked at Harry and Snape with satisfaction.Harry looked grateful.
"I'm his father!" James roared, although he obviously lacked confidence, just joking, how could his son marry a snotlover casually!Even with Master Snake Ancestor’s consent! (So, Father Lu, do you also think your son Hong Guoguo is a victim?)
Salazar smiled modestly: "Sorry, I'm his stepfather."
The understatement made the whole room fall into an eerie silence.James nearly passed out again.Portraits of several early Hogwarts graduates all gasp in disbelief.
Regardless of how strict His Excellency Slytherin's requirements for students are, because he has no biological children, he is extremely strict in the selection of heirs. They have known him for many years and have never heard of an heir that meets his requirements. Harry, this is a great honor for the Potter family.In addition, considering his own family, it is definitely something that subverts the perception of the magic world that there is a Slytherin heir in a Gryffindor family like the Potter family.
What's more, Harry is not yet the head of the Potter family. If he feels that the head of the Potter family is not worth mentioning compared with the status of the heir of Slytherin, so he doesn't want to inherit the Potter family, then the matter will be serious. Harry is now the last of the Potter family.
Hundreds of portraits play with these thoughts.
Harry didn't know anything about it, and he was still looking at his biological father with a guilty face: "Dad, I'm sorry, I..." He wanted to say that Severus and I really love each other, but in such a In front of many people, he was somewhat embarrassed.
James wants to scold people, but right now one is his son, he can't bear to scold, and the other is the snake ancestor, he can't afford to offend, so he can only vent his anger on insignificant people: "Sirius also agrees to you being with him?" Son If he dared to nod, he would definitely dismantle that broken dog if he had the chance. How did he become the godfather!
Unexpectedly, Harry looked blank: "Who is Sirius?"
Now it was James' turn to be dumbfounded.
Snape raised his eyebrows and smirked, "Unfortunately, your son doesn't know he has such a stupid godfather."
"Godfather?" Harry looked ignorant, "No one told me."
The two had a perfect understanding.When Snape confessed to Lily just now, he asked her not to tell James that he and Harry were reborn, in case James lost control of his emotions and didn't know what to say, and Harry had no intention of telling these people this from the beginning. So James didn't know that he was cheated by his son and his enemy.
Snape continued to smirk: "It is said that that stupid dog betrayed you and Lily's residence to the Dark Lord, which led to you being found by the Dark Lord, so he is now imprisoned in Azkaban, Harry has not seen him yet Woolen cloth."
"Are you kidding me!" If the portrait didn't reveal the owner's face, James would have turned pale at the moment, "The Secret Keeper is Peter!"
Snape pursed his lips tightly, and then mocked: "Your IQ is the same as that stupid dog who went to Azkaban without any crime, and actually replaced the secret keeper with such a coward, and was threatened by the Dark Lord I was so scared that I betrayed you that Harry spent an unforgettable childhood at his aunt's house."
James was really hit this time, he muttered to himself: "How could this be?"
"The secret keeper has been changed temporarily. No one knows except us and Sirius Peter," Lily said. "Everyone thinks that the secret keeper is still Sirius." Therefore, Sirius was the first person to suspect when they had an accident.
"Why didn't he explain?" James asked stupidly. He couldn't imagine that the lively, sunny and handsome man would spend more than ten years facing the dementors every day in the cold environment of Azkaban, or would he still be in his life? The most precious ten years.
Snape raised his eyebrows: "I'm sorry, I can't understand the idea of a stupid dog at all with the IQ of a normal person."
It was rare for James not to be angry when he heard Snape's taunt. He was completely devastated and gasped for breath, apparently not thinking that his death would affect so many people.
Seeing him like this, Harry couldn't bear it, and he comforted him: "When you joined the Order of the Phoenix, you did your best to save the wizarding world that was gradually controlled by Voldemort. Even if you died, you died for justice, to bring light to the wizarding world. future, so don’t blame yourself too much.”
A few words made James burst into tears. His son has grown up and can comfort others, and he is much more relieved.
Harry rolled his eyes, and continued: "Of course, I'm used to those things at my aunt's house. At most, Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon would beat me up when I did something bad, deny me food, and beat me up. Just locked in the cupboard."
James: "..." He almost wanted to die again, he was sorry for Harry!What kind of life has Harry lived all these years?I am not qualified to be his father at all!
Seeing the deep guilt on his face, Snape turned around and left, afraid that he would laugh in front of everyone if he took a step too slowly. Harry should have entered Slytherin. He couldn't help thinking that he had put this Sorting the little bastard into Gryffindor is really the biggest mistake of the Sorting Hat!
Salazar wanted to laugh too, greeted a room full of portraits and went out with Snape.
Harry was left alone in the room, and Lily watched him sadly.
"Petunia treated you badly?" Lily asked. "I'm sorry..." If a portrait could cry, her eyes would already be filled with tears.
Harry shook his head and comforted, "It's okay, it's over, now I'm under the care of Salazar and Severus, I'm fine."
Originally, James was a little dissatisfied when Harry mentioned the name of the snot-nosed man, but thinking that his own father was not as good as his enemy had done to his son, he automatically shut up.
"How long are you going to live here?" Lily's words expressed the hearts of all the portraits.
Harry hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We just planned to find this place, so it shouldn't be too long." Even if this was his home, Snape might not be willing to stay here all the time.

☆、Chapter 57
This sentence fell into the ears of other portraits, which caused quite a panic.Come and have a look and leave. Has Harry already disliked Potter Manor?
"Hey," a portrait at the front of the wall couldn't help but say, "Harry, the Potter family is missing a head."
"...So?" Harry looked at him, confused.
Could it be that he had no intention of inheriting Potter Manor from the very beginning?Although the Potter family is indeed a bit shabby compared to the Slytherin family, Harry's surname is Potter!The portraits howled wildly in their hearts, but no one dared to speak out their thoughts.
"Aren't you willing to inherit?" The one who saw his longest expression was also very hurt.
"Now?" Harry was obviously taken aback, he would have yelled long ago if he had the temperament of his previous life, even so, he couldn't help raising his voice: "But I'm only 12 years old!" Are you kidding, even if you want to inherit, you have to be 17 years old, right? The 12-year-old head of the family should not scare people to death. It’s not that people are scarce in war years. In peacetime, who inherited the family business and was not over 30 or [-] years old?
"It's okay, it's okay," the oldest man was obviously worried that Harry would run away, so he hurriedly said, "The owner of the house doesn't care about age, especially since you are the last Potter now."
Harry: "..." So, is he going to be the head of the house from now on?It's terrible, okay?
This is completely different from what he promised to be the heir of Slytherin at the beginning. With Salazar around, he is only an heir after all. If anything happens, Salazar must solve it. The family considers and takes on the responsibility of revitalizing the Potter family.
Under the eagerly looking eyes of the portraits in the room, Harry could only nod his head, he couldn't imagine the collective disappointment of hundreds of portraits.He finally understood how much pressure the old bat was under when he made a choice at the Prince Manor last Christmas. /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
The house-elf handed the Household Ring to Harry at the behest of the Eldest.Like the ring of the Prince family, the master ring of the Potter family is also pure gold, the difference is that the top of the Potter family ring is a unicorn symbolizing purity, and the eyes of the unicorn are inlaid with rubies. The workmanship is very delicate.
Harry glanced at the summoning ring that Salazar had given him and Snape on his left index finger, and then dripped his own blood into the unicorn's eyes as requested by the eldest, and waited until the blood was completely After blending into the ring, it is then worn on the thumb of the right hand.
Seeing him finish all this, the hundreds of portraits are finally relieved.
If this matter is delayed, their return date will naturally be postponed.Salazar was going to find Godric, and he left the Potter Manor three days later, leaving Harry and Snape to count the properties of the Potter family room by room, and let Harry have an overview of the Potter Manor. With a general understanding.
If James knew that his old nest was being checked by his rival, he would definitely run out of the portrait and fight the opponent in anger.Fortunately, he did not know. ╮(╯▽╰)╭
If the Malfoy family is good at making money, and the Black family is prone to rebels, then what the Potter family lacks most is the spirit of adventure.
Harry looked at the things in his library awkwardly. It was more accurate to say that they were travel notes rather than books.Except for his father's untimely death, every generation of the Potter family has traveled, and some stories are as thrilling as "Sinbad's Adventures in the Adventures of Sinbad" in the Muggle story collection "Arabian Nights".
Apparently Snape was also taken aback by these manuscripts. He looked around, then put the books back on the shelf, and said to Harry, "It's incredible that the Potter family has been passed down to your generation." Pure blood The family is usually a single line, as long as one generation dies during the adventure, the Potter family will disappear. The miracle is that this ancient family has survived.
Harry thought back to himself in his previous life, and couldn't help but feel that what the old bat said was so right.
Even with the reminder of the portraits of their ancestors, Harry and Snape lived in the Potter Manor for more than half a month before gradually figuring out the family's property status and everything.They originally wanted to stay for a while to get used to it, but Hedwig's appearance interrupted their plans.
It was a clear morning, and Harry was awakened by a sudden knock on the window while he was half asleep. He broke away from his lover's embrace and barely blinked.
Hedwig was banging impatiently on the window.
Harry jumped out of bed to put her in, took the letter off her feet, and fed her the biscuits.Hedwig pecked for a while, then buried her head in Harry's cup and gulped.
"Whose letter?" asked Snape, who was also awakened.
Harry glanced at the letter paper, then turned around and said, "Malfoy's family, we are invited to visit Malfoy Manor on July 7th. There are other nobles besides us. It should be a small gathering." He said, looking at the calendar , "There are three days left, what shall we say?"
Snape sat up and said slowly, "Pack up and go back to Spider's End tonight or tomorrow, and we'll go to Malfoy Manor from there."
Harry nodded: "Okay."
After letting Hedwig rest for a while, Harry asked her to take the letter back. He wrote in the letter: It is a great honor for them to be invited by the Malfoy family. bless.
Snape watched this little troll who had always been reckless and calmly wrote down the polite words at this moment, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of disobedience.At this moment, he finally realized clearly that the child he protected since he was a child has really grown up.He glanced out of the window, and it was the rare clear blue sky in England. He suddenly felt that this life was so beautiful, so beautiful that it was a bit unreal.
He is no longer the double agent who needs to be disguised, nor is he a dirty and dark Death Eater. He can accompany Harry, step by step, and share the future with each other.
Even if he is as indifferent as him, he can't help but thank Merlin for giving him a chance to start all over again.
Taking a deep breath, Snape got up and made plans with Harry.They didn't have much to pack, but they had a lot to deal with. In addition to saying hello to the portraits of their ancestors, Harry also took good care of the family's house elves.The house-elves were very reluctant to leave when their new master arrived, but Harry assured them that they would come back every summer vacation in the future, which prevented them from hitting the wall collectively.
It was the same with James and Lily. Although James could not be said to be kind and gentle with Snape these days, he no longer fought against each other with harsh words, at least he had basic politeness.Hearing that they were going to leave, Lily explained to him and Snape well, to the effect that you should come back to play often, otherwise we will be very lonely.Hearing that, Harry couldn't tell if his mother was thinking about him or if his ancestors were missing gossip.
When all the work was done, it was already completely dark. They discussed it and decided to go back early the next morning.Although Apparition doesn't take much time, it's somewhat inconvenient to go back to Spider's End Alley at this time.
In the early morning of the next day, Harry walked out of Potter Manor and used the spell Salazar taught him to hide the manor again.Although it is not a time of war at this time, considering that I will not be able to come back for a long time, in order to avoid coveting or sneak attack, it is better to close this place.
After all this was done, he Disapparated with Snape.
The author has something to say:
☆、Chapter 58
No matter how many times Harry comes to Malfoy Manor, he will always be amazed by its magnificence, and the magnificence of this day is even higher than before. Malfoy still let the house-elf spend several days carefully decorating the manor.
This time Snape brought Harry here instead of using the fireplace, but using the Portkey that Lucius specially prepared for Snape. After all, the visit to the fireplace was not formal enough.They showed up at the gate of Malfoy Manor on time at ten o'clock in the morning.
I heard from Salazar that the members of the early Malfoy family had Veela blood, so they especially liked golden things, such as gold Galleons.No wonder Lucius tried his best to make money.
Looking at the luxury radiating from the manor from the outside, Harry couldn't help being speechless for a while.
I don't know if Lucius was thinking about the friendship with Snape or the title of Harry's savior. In short, when the two arrived, Lucius took Narcissa and Draco to greet him at the gate of the manor.
The appearance of the savior was undoubtedly a blockbuster, and the nobles present had to re-examine the position of the Malfoy family and their own position.
As senior members of the Death Eaters, the Malfoy family was not sanctioned by the Ministry of Magic after Voldemort lost power, and kept their status. Although they lost a lot of property, under the painstaking management of Lucius, the money was saved by them. It's almost paid off now.
But Harry's appearance here at this time complicates the situation. Lucius is a Death Eater. Although he escaped the sanctions of the Ministry of Magic for some unknown reason, the Dark Mark on his arm is always Existence, and most of the Death Eaters had seen him at previous Voldemort gatherings.But this time, he invited the savior to his manor. As a distinguished guest, this is completely different from the nature of his escape from the sanctions of the Ministry of Magic. The opposite of Voldemort.
The Malfoy family has been passed down for thousands of years and has an extremely important position among the pure-blood families in the magic world. The change of his position made other pure-blood families have to reconsider their positions.
"Welcome the Honorable Mr. Potter to Malfoy Manor," said Lucius in his characteristic aristocratic aria, holding out his hand.
Harry shook his hand, nodded and smiled, "It's my honor to receive your invitation, sir."
The handshake is usually done with the right hand. The Lord Potter ring on Harry's hand immediately attracted Lucius' attention. He was a little surprised, but his habit of showing emotions over the years made him just raise his eyebrows indifferently. .
Because the ring on Harry's left hand was the same as Snape's, they had already hidden it with a powerful ignore spell.Otherwise, Lucius would never be so calm.Harry couldn't help thinking wickedly.
After welcoming Harry and Snape to the VIP seats, Lucius did not go out of the manor to receive others, but chatted with them and other heads and heirs of pure-blood families who had come earlier.
Facing more or less temptations from other nobles, Harry just answered their questions politely with a smile. When everyone was attracted by the newcomers, he just lowered his head, ate snacks and drank tea, occasionally Talk to Snape or Draco Bryce without drawing attention.
Snape was very clear about the purpose of Lucius's gathering. Before the holiday, he wrote to Lucius and told him about Harry's return. Just beat the Dark Lord.So this time Lucius arranged the party, not only to tell people that they had made friends with the savior, but also to test Harry, to let other nobles see if the savior had capital worth their bets.
The status of the pure-blood family is doomed that they must either attach to Voldemort or follow the savior. It is extremely difficult to survive in the cracks alone, so they must think clearly about the future of their family.
Snape wasn't worried about Harry's strength. Even if Lord Slytherin hadn't shared his magic power with him, with his many years of combat experience, he could shock everyone present.But what Snape didn't know was how these people would test him, so he could only wait and see.
Before coming here, he only told Harry to be careful, and he didn't say anything else. The tacit understanding between the two was enough for Harry to understand everything the other wanted to express.
Like him, Harry remained silent on the surface, but secretly observed his surroundings carefully.
The gatherings of nobles are usually based on balls.The music chosen by the Malfoy family as the background of the dance party this time is Baroque style, mainly composed of Kravik, accompanied by lute and viol, and accompanied by timpani. The overall appearance is solemn and gorgeous, which fits the style of the Malfoy family. .
As the heir to the Malfoy family, Draco Malfoy invited Astoria Greengrass to lead the opening dance.Harry didn't have a deep impression of the little sister of the Greengrass family. He only remembered that she was a year younger than them and hadn't entered school yet.
The minuet has a slow rhythm, elegant and graceful, and it is the most suitable as an opening dance.Both Malfoy and Greengrass are pure-blood families with a long history, and the offspring they cultivated have extraordinary natural demeanor.Coupled with the fact that the two families are family friends, Draco's actions at this time are quite suggestive.
Harry looked at Draco's graceful dance steps with a smile, and couldn't help thinking of Hermione, and didn't know whether Draco would submit to the family's arrangement in the end or follow his own heart.
The accompaniment music faded away, Harry gathered his thoughts and turned to Snape, intending to ask for his opinion.Snape nodded calmly.
With his permission, Harry invited Pansy Parkinson, who was at the same level as him, after Draco's opening dance.He couldn't care less about seeing others looking at himself and Pansy with meaningful and scrutinizing eyes.Of course, he can't just sit around at this kind of party. As a man, he can't wait for his girlfriend to invite him, so he can only take the initiative.
Strength alone is not enough to defeat Voldemort.During Voldemort's heyday, there were many pure-blood families working for him in different ways, so he had to fight for these powers.Both he and Snape knew that.
Harry is not very good at dancing. The few dance steps that he can rarely learn were taught by Professor McGonagall in the fourth grade in his previous life. Won't step on the level of your partner's feet.Ballroom dancing is a compulsory etiquette for nobles. Although Harry also came from a pure-blood family, but his parents passed away early, and his godfather is a careless and informal person, so no one has ever taught him well.So at this time, he was somewhat embarrassed facing Pansy.
Although Pansy was young, she danced very skillfully. She slowly brought Harry's dance steps on track without showing any trace.Harry looked at her gratefully.In this regard, she bowed her head slightly and said nothing.
The ball gradually became lively, and Snape couldn't sit still, so he got up and danced with the noble lady beside him.
Harry watched the old bat's graceful dancing steps, completely dumbstruck, and Pansy couldn't move him a few times before following his gaze.
"The headmaster is also from Slytherin anyway, so he understands the basic social etiquette." Pansy said softly, she could see why Harry was surprised.
Harry blushed, and refocused his thoughts on the dance steps. He said embarrassedly: "I saw that he was either brewing potions or reading books all day long, so I thought he was a non-human being."
Pan Xi smiled: "I heard from my father that the dean didn't want to learn dancing at first, but Uncle Lucius forced him to learn it later, saying that he can't dance and be careful that no girl will marry him in the future."
"After learning it, I haven't seen any girls who are willing to marry him." Harry saw that Snape was far away from them, so he teased at ease, "It has nothing to do with whether you can dance or not." In the words of Ron in the previous life, the old bat You should live with the Crucible forever.
The two chatted happily, and what Harry didn't know was that although Snape wasn't staring at him, his attention was always on them.
Just dance and dance, what's the matter with talking so happily?Snape couldn't help thinking that in his previous life Harry was clinging to Granger in Gryffindor, and in this life he went to Slytherin and Granger Parkinson would never let him go. He gritted his teeth, wishing he could drag this little bastard away Come to yourself.
When it was his turn to change partners, several girls secretly hinted at Harry, and the oldest of them seemed to be only about 15 years old. Harry had no choice but to hand Pansy to Zabini, and then He and these little girls jumped up one by one, they were all descendants of nobles, and he couldn't offend any of them.
After the whole round, Harry felt that his legs were about to break, he looked for Snape with a headache, and found that he was looking at him coldly.He wanted to cry immediately, but he was also a victim, okay?
When Snape saw the little troll looking at him pleadingly, the anger in his heart disappeared. He couldn't help but find it funny, teasing him like this is really funny.
Turning his head back calmly, Snape continued chatting with the people around him, leaving Harry nervously alone.
The author has something to say:
☆、Chapter 59
Of course, he didn't struggle for long before a woman walked towards him with light steps, "Mr. Potter, nice to meet you." She said politely.
Harry took a closer look and saw that it was Mrs. Zabini, Bryce's mother.She is about 40 years old, but she is extremely beautiful, and she can hardly see the traces of time on her face. It is said that she has been a widow seven times, so she has the nickname "Black Widow", which means that she can poison her. Every husband.
"Mrs. Zabini," Harry saluted politely, "it is an honor to meet you."
Mrs. Zabini looked at the rarely clear sky outside, and said to Harry, "Mr. Potter, would you mind going out with me? It's a bit boring here."
Harry smiled and nodded, "Very happy." He glanced at Snape out of the corner of his eye, and found that the other party was still chatting, not paying attention to him.
How annoying... Harry thought silently as he followed them out.
Outside the house is a very spectacular fountain. The high and low water column splashes a little crystal water, which brings a touch of coolness in this hot summer.Harry and Mrs. Zabini stopped by the fountain.
"I heard that Mr. Potter and Bryce have a good relationship?" Mrs. Zabini laughed.
"Just call me Harry, ma'am," Harry smiled, "Bryce is my friend."
If it was other nobles, they would probably have two thoughts when they heard Harry's words, either they were happy that their children could make friends with the savior, or they were worried about the future of themselves and their family.
Making friends with the Savior meant a change in one's position. Most of the former high-ranking Death Eaters came from pure-blood families, and there were very few like Snape.Although Voldemort has been missing for more than ten years, no one knows whether he will come back, so most pure-blood families still hold a wait-and-see attitude and dare not openly make friends with the savior in order to leave a way out for possible changes in the future .
But the Zabini family is different. Even in the period of Voldemort's heyday more than ten years ago, their family remained neutral. They neither became Death Eaters nor partied with the Order of the Phoenix. There is no problem.So when Harry told Mrs. Zabini that he and Bryce were friends, she could almost be sure that the other party really regarded his children as friends.
"I'm very glad that Bryce has a friend like you, Harry." As a mother, Mrs. Zabini couldn't help feeling a little fond of the Savior. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to get along with people at Hogwarts."
"Where," Harry said with a smile, not ignoring the sincere joy that flashed in Mrs. Zabini's eyes at that moment, "Bryce is very kind to people, we all like him." But he still couldn't adapt to Slytherin He couldn't help thinking that it was a Gryffindor environment where people could laugh and make a lot of noise.
There are no parents who don't like others to praise their children, and Mrs. Zabini's smile can't help but deepen, but it still remains within the acceptable range of nobles: "I'm so happy to hear you say that."
The music in the room has changed from simple dance music to sonata, mainly stringed music, still in Baroque style.The melodious sound came out in the middle of this conversation, which made people feel very comfortable, and Harry narrowed his eyes slightly.
Grasping his flashing expression, Mrs. Zabini asked, "Do you like music very much?"
Harry smiled and said: "The music of the Baroque period appeared in the stage of transition from the Renaissance to the classicism. The style is solemn and gorgeous, and it sounds good."
"You know very well," Mrs. Zabini approved.
"I don't know much about it," Harry smiled, "I just know a little bit." The understanding of music is what he got in the Potter Manor in the past two days. In addition to taking risks, the Potter family is also very knowledgeable about music. After some research, he found a bunch of clavichords and early stringed instruments that had been cast with a protection spell from the family's storage room, and even saw a pipe organ that had been shrunk many times.
Thinking of Snape's face when he saw these things, Harry was amused. It is estimated that the old bat never expected that the always pure and impulsive Potter family would have musical accomplishments.
"I know you grew up in the Muggle world," Mrs. Zabini said, "Isn't it a bit uncomfortable to study at Hogwarts?" She observed Harry's face calmly, and continued, "Muggles and wizards are very different after all."
The curvature of the corners of Harry's lips remained unchanged, and he did not show any offended expression: "Thank you for your concern, Hogwarts is as warm as home to me." He blinked mischievously, "But to be honest ,I
"Then why..." Harry hesitated, and asked, "You should have been very old when you died, but you looked less than 30 years old after you were resurrected?" He had never heard of this kind of magic, probably Neither did Hermione in her previous life, so she didn't understand many questions.
"It's related to magic power," Salazar explained. "The stronger the magic power, the easier it is to be at the peak age after resurrection."
Harry looked at his extremely handsome face with embarrassment, and couldn't help thinking, so, has Master Snake Zu's strength become abnormal?
"Listen to me," Salazar put the cup in his hand on the stone table. At this time, the weather was getting hotter, and the shade of the trees began to be unable to block the scorching sun. He cast a cooling spell on the two of them, and then continued. : "Godric probably guessed that I would come back to find him, so he left some clues to find his soul, but he was worried that others would find out, so he kept the information very carefully."
"What do I need to do?" Harry asked, there was absolutely no need for the Snake Ancestor to tell him this if it had nothing to do with him.
Salazar said: "What he left behind is a bunch of clues similar to a puzzle game, which are very complicated, and some of them need white magic supplies. I am a pure black wizard. If possible, I hope you can help me."
Harry nodded and was about to agree when the house-elf from Potter Manor rushed up to them and interrupted his conversation with Salazar.
The house-elf shouted to Harry out of breath, "Master, it's...it's a fight!"
Harry looked bewildered.
"What's the fight?" Salazar didn't understand, except for the two of the living people in the whole manor, only Severus was left. Who could he fight with?
"Mr. Snape, and... a portrait of Master James."
Harry: "..." Are you kidding me, how much enmity is there between the professor and his father, how can they not let each other go without turning into portraits?

☆、Chapter 56
When Harry and Salazar rushed to that room, Snape and James Potter were pointing their wands at each other, looking like they were about to duel.
Harry was very embarrassed, and subconsciously glanced at his mother, the intention of asking was obvious.
Lily shrugged helplessly, and then said: "Severus and I had a good chat, he woke up suddenly, and after listening to a few words, he became like this."
"What did I hear?!" James was obviously irritated, "The snot guy actually said he likes Harry!"
Originally, Snape and Lily were not talking loudly, and James was in a coma again. Snape spoke at ease, so besides apologizing for what happened back then, he took the initiative to tell Lily all the past experiences between himself and Harry, and it was Lily, who knew everything, was amazed and grateful to him for taking care of her son for many years. Snape was indeed at fault for what happened back then, but he couldn't be completely blamed.Knowing that Snape blamed himself all his life for her and James' deaths, Lily, who is warm and kind by nature, couldn't bear it.
After getting Lily's forgiveness, Snape was finally completely relieved. Seeing that James was still fainting, he told Lily about his relationship with Harry.Unexpectedly, James suddenly woke up at this time, so...
Although not fully aware of these circumstances, Harry still chose to firmly defend his lover. He shouted at James' portrait: "I like Severus too!"
Now, a group of portraits exploded.The Potter family is a Gryffindor family. The family members are pure and enthusiastic, and they never like to hide their thoughts. Besides, there has been no newcomer in this family for nearly ten years, so when the relationship between Harry and Snape was exposed, the portraits were more than a little bit different. I'm even more excited when I'm in love.
reason?Nothing, they finally have new gossip!
Harry looked awkwardly at the ancestors who kept giving them opinions and suggestions, and couldn't help asking his stepfather for help.
Salazar laughed, and then said to James: "Harry and Severus have been in love for a long time, and I don't think there is anything inappropriate about them."
The word "feeling in love" made James look as ugly as if he had swallowed a bucket of slugs, but considering that the person standing in front of him who said this was a snake ancestor, he certainly didn't think he could object.
"What do you mean?" Salazar asked, turning to Lily.
Lily's bright smile remained the same: "As long as they are happy."
Salazar looked at Harry and Snape with satisfaction.Harry looked grateful.
"I'm his father!" James roared, although he obviously lacked confidence, just joking, how could his son marry a snotlover casually!Even with Master Snake Ancestor’s consent! (So, Father Lu, do you also think your son Hong Guoguo is a victim?)
Salazar smiled modestly: "Sorry, I'm his stepfather."
The understatement made the whole room fall into an eerie silence.James nearly passed out again.Portraits of several early Hogwarts graduates all gasp in disbelief.
Regardless of how strict His Excellency Slytherin's requirements for students are, because he has no biological children, he is extremely strict in the selection of heirs. They have known him for many years and have never heard of an heir that meets his requirements. Harry, this is a great honor for the Potter family.In addition, considering his own family, it is definitely something that subverts the perception of the magic world that there is a Slytherin heir in a Gryffindor family like the Potter family.
What's more, Harry is not yet the head of the Potter family. If he feels that the head of the Potter family is not worth mentioning compared with the status of the heir of Slytherin, so he doesn't want to inherit the Potter family, then the matter will be serious. Harry is now the last of the Potter family.
Hundreds of portraits play with these thoughts.
Harry didn't know anything about it, and he was still looking at his biological father with a guilty face: "Dad, I'm sorry, I..." He wanted to say that Severus and I really love each other, but in such a In front of many people, he was somewhat embarrassed.
James wants to scold people, but right now one is his son, he can't bear to scold, and the other is the snake ancestor, he can't afford to offend, so he can only vent his anger on insignificant people: "Sirius also agrees to you being with him?" Son If he dared to nod, he would definitely dismantle that broken dog if he had the chance. How did he become the godfather!
Unexpectedly, Harry looked blank: "Who is Sirius?"
Now it was James' turn to be dumbfounded.
Snape raised his eyebrows and smirked, "Unfortunately, your son doesn't know he has such a stupid godfather."
"Godfather?" Harry looked ignorant, "No one told me."
The two had a perfect understanding.When Snape confessed to Lily just now, he asked her not to tell James that he and Harry were reborn, in case James lost control of his emotions and didn't know what to say, and Harry had no intention of telling these people this from the beginning. So James didn't know that he was cheated by his son and his enemy.
Snape continued to smirk: "It is said that that stupid dog betrayed you and Lily's residence to the Dark Lord, which led to you being found by the Dark Lord, so he is now imprisoned in Azkaban, Harry has not seen him yet Woolen cloth."
"Are you kidding me!" If the portrait didn't reveal the owner's face, James would have turned pale at the moment, "The Secret Keeper is Peter!"
Snape pursed his lips tightly, and then mocked: "Your IQ is the same as that stupid dog who went to Azkaban without any crime, and actually replaced the secret keeper with such a coward, and was threatened by the Dark Lord I was so scared that I betrayed you that Harry spent an unforgettable childhood at his aunt's house."
James was really hit this time, he muttered to himself: "How could this be?"
"The secret keeper has been changed temporarily. No one knows except us and Sirius Peter," Lily said. "Everyone thinks that the secret keeper is still Sirius." Therefore, Sirius was the first person to suspect when they had an accident.
"Why didn't he explain?" James asked stupidly. He couldn't imagine that the lively, sunny and handsome man would spend more than ten years facing the dementors every day in the cold environment of Azkaban, or would he still be in his life? The most precious ten years.
Snape raised his eyebrows: "I'm sorry, I can't understand the idea of a stupid dog at all with the IQ of a normal person."
It was rare for James not to be angry when he heard Snape's taunt. He was completely devastated and gasped for breath, apparently not thinking that his death would affect so many people.
Seeing him like this, Harry couldn't bear it, and he comforted him: "When you joined the Order of the Phoenix, you did your best to save the wizarding world that was gradually controlled by Voldemort. Even if you died, you died for justice, to bring light to the wizarding world. future, so don’t blame yourself too much.”
A few words made James burst into tears. His son has grown up and can comfort others, and he is much more relieved.
Harry rolled his eyes, and continued: "Of course, I'm used to those things at my aunt's house. At most, Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon would beat me up when I did something bad, deny me food, and beat me up. Just locked in the cupboard."
James: "..." He almost wanted to die again, he was sorry for Harry!What kind of life has Harry lived all these years?I am not qualified to be his father at all!
Seeing the deep guilt on his face, Snape turned around and left, afraid that he would laugh in front of everyone if he took a step too slowly. Harry should have entered Slytherin. He couldn't help thinking that he had put this Sorting the little bastard into Gryffindor is really the biggest mistake of the Sorting Hat!
Salazar wanted to laugh too, greeted a room full of portraits and went out with Snape.
Harry was left alone in the room, and Lily watched him sadly.
"Petunia treated you badly?" Lily asked. "I'm sorry..." If a portrait could cry, her eyes would already be filled with tears.
Harry shook his head and comforted, "It's okay, it's over, now I'm under the care of Salazar and Severus, I'm fine."
Originally, James was a little dissatisfied when Harry mentioned the name of the snot-nosed man, but thinking that his own father was not as good as his enemy had done to his son, he automatically shut up.
"How long are you going to live here?" Lily's words expressed the hearts of all the portraits.
Harry hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We just planned to find this place, so it shouldn't be too long." Even if this was his home, Snape might not be willing to stay here all the time.
The author has something to say:
☆、Chapter 57
This sentence fell into the ears of other portraits, which caused quite a panic.Come and have a look and leave. Has Harry already disliked Potter Manor?
"Hey," a portrait at the front of the wall couldn't help but say, "Harry, the Potter family is missing a head."
"...So?" Harry looked at him, confused.
Could it be that he had no intention of inheriting Potter Manor from the very beginning?Although the Potter family is indeed a bit shabby compared to the Slytherin family, Harry's surname is Potter!The portraits howled wildly in their hearts, but no one dared to speak out their thoughts.
"Aren't you willing to inherit?" The one who saw his longest expression was also very hurt.
"Now?" Harry was obviously taken aback, he would have yelled long ago if he had the temperament of his previous life, even so, he couldn't help raising his voice: "But I'm only 12 years old!" Are you kidding, even if you want to inherit, you have to be 17 years old, right? The 12-year-old head of the family should not scare people to death. It’s not that people are scarce in war years. In peacetime, who inherited the family business and was not over 30 or [-] years old?
"It's okay, it's okay," the oldest man was obviously worried that Harry would run away, so he hurriedly said, "The owner of the house doesn't care about age, especially since you are the last Potter now."
Harry: "..." So, is he going to be the head of the house from now on?It's terrible, okay?
This is completely different from what he promised to be the heir of Slytherin at the beginning. With Salazar around, he is only an heir after all. If anything happens, Salazar must solve it. The family considers and takes on the responsibility of revitalizing the Potter family.
Under the eagerly looking eyes of the portraits in the room, Harry could only nod his head, he couldn't imagine the collective disappointment of hundreds of portraits.He finally understood how much pressure the old bat was under when he made a choice at the Prince Manor last Christmas. /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
The house-elf handed the Household Ring to Harry at the behest of the Eldest.Like the ring of the Prince family, the master ring of the Potter family is also pure gold, the difference is that the top of the Potter family ring is a unicorn symbolizing purity, and the eyes of the unicorn are inlaid with rubies. The workmanship is very delicate.
Harry glanced at the summoning ring that Salazar had given him and Snape on his left index finger, and then dripped his own blood into the unicorn's eyes as requested by the eldest, and waited until the blood was completely After blending into the ring, it is then worn on the thumb of the right hand.
Seeing him finish all this, the hundreds of portraits are finally relieved.
If this matter is delayed, their return date will naturally be postponed.Salazar was going to find Godric, and he left the Potter Manor three days later, leaving Harry and Snape to count the properties of the Potter family room by room, and let Harry have an overview of the Potter Manor. With a general understanding.
If James knew that his old nest was being checked by his rival, he would definitely run out of the portrait and fight the opponent in anger.Fortunately, he did not know. ╮(╯▽╰)╭
If the Malfoy family is good at making money, and the Black family is prone to rebels, then what the Potter family lacks most is the spirit of adventure.
Harry looked at the things in his library awkwardly. It was more accurate to say that they were travel notes rather than books.Except for his father's untimely death, every generation of the Potter family has traveled, and some stories are as thrilling as "Sinbad's Adventures in the Adventures of Sinbad" in the Muggle story collection "Arabian Nights".
Apparently Snape was also taken aback by these manuscripts. He looked around, then put the books back on the shelf, and said to Harry, "It's incredible that the Potter family has been passed down to your generation." Pure blood The family is usually a single line, as long as one generation dies during the adventure, the Potter family will disappear. The miracle is that this ancient family has survived.
Harry thought back to himself in his previous life, and couldn't help but feel that what the old bat said was so right.
Even with the reminder of the portraits of their ancestors, Harry and Snape lived in the Potter Manor for more than half a month before gradually figuring out the family's property status and everything.They originally wanted to stay for a while to get used to it, but Hedwig's appearance interrupted their plans.
It was a clear morning, and Harry was awakened by a sudden knock on the window while he was half asleep. He broke away from his lover's embrace and barely blinked.
Hedwig was banging impatiently on the window.
Harry jumped out of bed to put her in, took the letter off her feet, and fed her the biscuits.Hedwig pecked for a while, then buried her head in Harry's cup and gulped.
"Whose letter?" asked Snape, who was also awakened.
Harry glanced at the letter paper, then turned around and said, "Malfoy's family, we are invited to visit Malfoy Manor on July 7th. There are other nobles besides us. It should be a small gathering." He said, looking at the calendar , "There are three days left, what shall we say?"
Snape sat up and said slowly, "Pack up and go back to Spider's End tonight or tomorrow, and we'll go to Malfoy Manor from there."
Harry nodded: "Okay."
After letting Hedwig rest for a while, Harry asked her to take the letter back. He wrote in the letter: It is a great honor for them to be invited by the Malfoy family. bless.
Snape watched this little troll who had always been reckless and calmly wrote down the polite words at this moment, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of disobedience.At this moment, he finally realized clearly that the child he protected since he was a child has really grown up.He glanced out of the window, and it was the rare clear blue sky in England. He suddenly felt that this life was so beautiful, so beautiful that it was a bit unreal.
He is no longer the double agent who needs to be disguised, nor is he a dirty and dark Death Eater. He can accompany Harry, step by step, and share the future with each other.
Even if he is as indifferent as him, he can't help but thank Merlin for giving him a chance to start all over again.
Taking a deep breath, Snape got up and made plans with Harry.They didn't have much to pack, but they had a lot to deal with. In addition to saying hello to the portraits of their ancestors, Harry also took good care of the family's house elves.The house-elves were very reluctant to leave when their new master arrived, but Harry assured them that they would come back every summer vacation in the future, which prevented them from hitting the wall collectively.
It was the same with James and Lily. Although James could not be said to be kind and gentle with Snape these days, he no longer fought against each other with harsh words, at least he had basic politeness.Hearing that they were going to leave, Lily explained to him and Snape well, to the effect that you should come back to play often, otherwise we will be very lonely.Hearing that, Harry couldn't tell if his mother was thinking about him or if his ancestors were missing gossip.
When all the work was done, it was already completely dark. They discussed it and decided to go back early the next morning.Although Apparition doesn't take much time, it's somewhat inconvenient to go back to Spider's End Alley at this time.
In the early morning of the next day, Harry walked out of Potter Manor and used the spell Salazar taught him to hide the manor again.Although it is not a time of war at this time, considering that I will not be able to come back for a long time, in order to avoid coveting or sneak attack, it is better to close this place.
After all this was done, he Disapparated with Snape.
The author has something to say:
☆、Chapter 58
No matter how many times Harry comes to Malfoy Manor, he will always be amazed by its magnificence, and the magnificence of this day is even higher than before. Malfoy still let the house-elf spend several days carefully decorating the manor.
This time Snape brought Harry here instead of using the fireplace, but using the Portkey that Lucius specially prepared for Snape. After all, the visit to the fireplace was not formal enough.They showed up at the gate of Malfoy Manor on time at ten o'clock in the morning.
I heard from Salazar that the members of the early Malfoy family had Veela blood, so they especially liked golden things, such as gold Galleons.No wonder Lucius tried his best to make money.
Looking at the luxury radiating from the manor from the outside, Harry couldn't help being speechless for a while.
I don't know if Lucius was thinking about the friendship with Snape or the title of Harry's savior. In short, when the two arrived, Lucius took Narcissa and Draco to greet him at the gate of the manor.
The appearance of the savior was undoubtedly a blockbuster, and the nobles present had to re-examine the position of the Malfoy family and their own position.
As senior members of the Death Eaters, the Malfoy family was not sanctioned by the Ministry of Magic after Voldemort lost power, and kept their status. Although they lost a lot of property, under the painstaking management of Lucius, the money was saved by them. It's almost paid off now.
But Harry's appearance here at this time complicates the situation. Lucius is a Death Eater. Although he escaped the sanctions of the Ministry of Magic for some unknown reason, the Dark Mark on his arm is always Existence, and most of the Death Eaters had seen him at previous Voldemort gatherings.But this time, he invited the savior to his manor. As a distinguished guest, this is completely different from the nature of his escape from the sanctions of the Ministry of Magic. The opposite of Voldemort.
The Malfoy family has been passed down for thousands of years and has an extremely important position among the pure-blood families in the magic world. The change of his position made other pure-blood families have to reconsider their positions.
"Welcome the Honorable Mr. Potter to Malfoy Manor," said Lucius in his characteristic aristocratic aria, holding out his hand.
Harry shook his hand, nodded and smiled, "It's my honor to receive your invitation, sir."
The handshake is usually done with the right hand. The Lord Potter ring on Harry's hand immediately attracted Lucius' attention. He was a little surprised, but his habit of showing emotions over the years made him just raise his eyebrows indifferently. .
Because the ring on Harry's left hand was the same as Snape's, they had already hidden it with a powerful ignore spell.Otherwise, Lucius would never be so calm.Harry couldn't help thinking wickedly.
After welcoming Harry and Snape to the VIP seats, Lucius did not go out of the manor to receive others, but chatted with them and other heads and heirs of pure-blood families who had come earlier.
Facing more or less temptations from other nobles, Harry just answered their questions politely with a smile. When everyone was attracted by the newcomers, he just lowered his head, ate snacks and drank tea, occasionally Talk to Snape or Draco Bryce without drawing attention.
Snape was very clear about the purpose of Lucius's gathering. Before the holiday, he wrote to Lucius and told him about Harry's return. Just beat the Dark Lord.So this time Lucius arranged the party, not only to tell people that they had made friends with the savior, but also to test Harry, to let other nobles see if the savior had capital worth their bets.
The status of the pure-blood family is doomed that they must either attach to Voldemort or follow the savior. It is extremely difficult to survive in the cracks alone, so they must think clearly about the future of their family.
Snape wasn't worried about Harry's strength. Even if Lord Slytherin hadn't shared his magic power with him, with his many years of combat experience, he could shock everyone present.But what Snape didn't know was how these people would test him, so he could only wait and see.
Before coming here, he only told Harry to be careful, and he didn't say anything else. The tacit understanding between the two was enough for Harry to understand everything the other wanted to express.
Like him, Harry remained silent on the surface, but secretly observed his surroundings carefully.
The gatherings of nobles are usually based on balls.The music chosen by the Malfoy family as the background of the dance party this time is Baroque style, mainly composed of Kravik, accompanied by lute and viol, and accompanied by timpani. The overall appearance is solemn and gorgeous, which fits the style of the Malfoy family. .
As the heir to the Malfoy family, Draco Malfoy invited Astoria Greengrass to lead the opening dance.Harry didn't have a deep impression of the little sister of the Greengrass family. He only remembered that she was a year younger than them and hadn't entered school yet.
The minuet has a slow rhythm, elegant and graceful, and it is the most suitable as an opening dance.Both Malfoy and Greengrass are pure-blood families with a long history, and the offspring they cultivated have extraordinary natural demeanor.Coupled with the fact that the two families are family friends, Draco's actions at this time are quite suggestive.
Harry looked at Draco's graceful dance steps with a smile, and couldn't help thinking of Hermione, and didn't know whether Draco would submit to the family's arrangement in the end or follow his own heart.
The accompaniment music faded away, Harry gathered his thoughts and turned to Snape, intending to ask for his opinion.Snape nodded calmly.
With his permission, Harry invited Pansy Parkinson, who was at the same level as him, after Draco's opening dance.He couldn't care less about seeing others looking at himself and Pansy with meaningful and scrutinizing eyes.Of course, he can't just sit around at this kind of party. As a man, he can't wait for his girlfriend to invite him, so he can only take the initiative.
Strength alone is not enough to defeat Voldemort.During Voldemort's heyday, there were many pure-blood families working for him in different ways, so he had to fight for these powers.Both he and Snape knew that.
Harry is not very good at dancing. The few dance steps that he can rarely learn were taught by Professor McGonagall in the fourth grade in his previous life. Won't step on the level of your partner's feet.Ballroom dancing is a compulsory etiquette for nobles. Although Harry also came from a pure-blood family, but his parents passed away early, and his godfather is a careless and informal person, so no one has ever taught him well.So at this time, he was somewhat embarrassed facing Pansy.
Although Pansy was young, she danced very skillfully. She slowly brought Harry's dance steps on track without showing any trace.Harry looked at her gratefully.In this regard, she bowed her head slightly and said nothing.
The ball gradually became lively, and Snape couldn't sit still, so he got up and danced with the noble lady beside him.
Harry watched the old bat's graceful dancing steps, completely dumbstruck, and Pansy couldn't move him a few times before following his gaze.
"The headmaster is also from Slytherin anyway, so he understands the basic social etiquette." Pansy said softly, she could see why Harry was surprised.
Harry blushed, and refocused his thoughts on the dance steps. He said embarrassedly: "I saw that he was either brewing potions or reading books all day long, so I thought he was a non-human being."
Pan Xi smiled: "I heard from my father that the dean didn't want to learn dancing at first, but Uncle Lucius forced him to learn it later, saying that he can't dance and be careful that no girl will marry him in the future."
"After learning it, I haven't seen any girls who are willing to marry him." Harry saw that Snape was far away from them, so he teased at ease, "It has nothing to do with whether you can dance or not." In the words of Ron in the previous life, the old bat You should live with the Crucible forever.
The two chatted happily, and what Harry didn't know was that although Snape wasn't staring at him, his attention was always on them.
Just dance and dance, what's the matter with talking so happily?Snape couldn't help thinking that in his previous life Harry was clinging to Granger in Gryffindor, and in this life he went to Slytherin and Granger Parkinson would never let him go. He gritted his teeth, wishing he could drag this little bastard away Come to yourself.
When it was his turn to change partners, several girls secretly hinted at Harry, and the oldest of them seemed to be only about 15 years old. Harry had no choice but to hand Pansy to Zabini, and then He and these little girls jumped up one by one, they were all descendants of nobles, and he couldn't offend any of them.
After the whole round, Harry felt that his legs were about to break, he looked for Snape with a headache, and found that he was looking at him coldly.He wanted to cry immediately, but he was also a victim, okay?
When Snape saw the little troll looking at him pleadingly, the anger in his heart disappeared. He couldn't help but find it funny, teasing him like this is really funny.
Turning his head back calmly, Snape continued chatting with the people around him, leaving Harry nervously alone.
The author has something to say:
☆、Chapter 59
Of course, he didn't struggle for long before a woman walked towards him with light steps, "Mr. Potter, nice to meet you." She said politely.
Harry took a closer look and saw that it was Mrs. Zabini, Bryce's mother.She is about 40 years old, but she is extremely beautiful, and she can hardly see the traces of time on her face. It is said that she has been a widow seven times, so she has the nickname "Black Widow", which means that she can poison her. Every husband.
"Mrs. Zabini," Harry saluted politely, "it is an honor to meet you."
Mrs. Zabini looked at the rarely clear sky outside, and said to Harry, "Mr. Potter, would you mind going out with me? It's a bit boring here."
Harry smiled and nodded, "Very happy." He glanced at Snape out of the corner of his eye, and found that the other party was still chatting, not paying attention to him.
How annoying... Harry thought silently as he followed them out.
Outside the house is a very spectacular fountain. The high and low water column splashes a little crystal water, which brings a touch of coolness in this hot summer.Harry and Mrs. Zabini stopped by the fountain.
"I heard that Mr. Potter and Bryce have a good relationship?" Mrs. Zabini laughed.
"Just call me Harry, ma'am," Harry smiled, "Bryce is my friend."
If it was other nobles, they would probably have two thoughts when they heard Harry's words, either they were happy that their children could make friends with the savior, or they were worried about the future of themselves and their family.
Making friends with the Savior meant a change in one's position. Most of the former high-ranking Death Eaters came from pure-blood families, and there were very few like Snape.Although Voldemort has been missing for more than ten years, no one knows whether he will come back, so most pure-blood families still hold a wait-and-see attitude and dare not openly make friends with the savior in order to leave a way out for possible changes in the future .
But the Zabini family is different. Even in the period of Voldemort's heyday more than ten years ago, their family remained neutral. They neither became Death Eaters nor partied with the Order of the Phoenix. There is no problem.So when Harry told Mrs. Zabini that he and Bryce were friends, she could almost be sure that the other party really regarded his children as friends.
"I'm very glad that Bryce has a friend like you, Harry." As a mother, Mrs. Zabini couldn't help feeling a little fond of the Savior. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to get along with people at Hogwarts."
"Where," Harry said with a smile, not ignoring the sincere joy that flashed in Mrs. Zabini's eyes at that moment, "Bryce is very kind to people, we all like him." But he still couldn't adapt to Slytherin He couldn't help thinking that it was a Gryffindor environment where people could laugh and make a lot of noise.
There are no parents who don't like others to praise their children, and Mrs. Zabini's smile can't help but deepen, but it still remains within the acceptable range of nobles: "I'm so happy to hear you say that."
The music in the room has changed from simple dance music to sonata, mainly stringed music, still in Baroque style.The melodious sound came out in the middle of this conversation, which made people feel very comfortable, and Harry narrowed his eyes slightly.
Grasping his flashing expression, Mrs. Zabini asked, "Do you like music very much?"
Harry smiled and said: "The music of the Baroque period appeared in the stage of transition from the Renaissance to the classicism. The style is solemn and gorgeous, and it sounds good."
"You know very well," Mrs. Zabini approved.
"I don't know much about it," Harry smiled, "I just know a little bit." The understanding of music is what he got in the Potter Manor in the past two days. In addition to taking risks, the Potter family is also very knowledgeable about music. After some research, he found a bunch of clavichords and early stringed instruments that had been cast with a protection spell from the family's storage room, and even saw a pipe organ that had been shrunk many times.
Thinking of Snape's face when he saw these things, Harry was amused. It is estimated that the old bat never expected that the always pure and impulsive Potter family would have musical accomplishments.
"I know you grew up in the Muggle world," Mrs. Zabini said, "Isn't it a bit uncomfortable to study at Hogwarts?" She observed Harry's face calmly, and continued, "Muggles and wizards are very different after all."
The curvature of the corners of Harry's lips remained unchanged, and he did not show any offended expression: "Thank you for your concern, Hogwarts is as warm as home to me." He blinked mischievously, "But to be honest ,I
