Chapter 18 Malfoy Manor

Nancy was reclining on the cushions of the sofa reading a letter from Harry, apologetically mentioning that he couldn't send her letters as often because the Dursleys didn't let owls fly in and out.Also asked if she had received the Hogsmeade consent form attached to the letter from Hogwarts.

Uncle Vernon promised me that if he behaved well during the week when Aunt Marge (Aunt Marge was Uncle Vernon's sister) was visiting, he would sign the consent form.So we can go together.Well, I still have to tidy up the room, hide the spellbooks and all, and try to look as normal as possible, like a real Muggle.

wait for my good news

miss you harry

She smiled and picked up the second letter.It was from Fred, saying his dad had won the Daily Prophet jackpot.The family immediately left for a holiday in Egypt.

My brother Bill worked as a spellbreaker at Gringotts there.He took us around several famous pyramids.The spells cast by ancient Egyptian wizards are really imaginative.One of the Chambers of Secrets we saw had the skeleton of a Muggle grave robber with a head or a tail.There are also a large number of magical transformation spells.It inspired me and George a lot.

Ron bought Harry a pocket looking glass.Bill said it didn't work, it kept flashing while we ate.I think that's because he didn't realize that George and I had put beetles in his soup.Anyway, I think it is very useful.I bought one for you too, much better quality than that one.I also made some small changes.Keep it aside while you eat, hope it works for you.

Fred in the sun

Nancy looked at a pink translucent pocket looking glass that came with the letter and held it in her hand.There is also a handwritten instruction manual.

"What's that?" Snape asked as he walked into the living room, frowning and staring at the looking glass in her hand.

"It's nothing." Nancy hurriedly held the looking glass in her hand, and she didn't know what guilt she had.

"I see astronomy crossed off your third-grade schedule?" He sat at the kitchen table, reaching for a slice of toast and buttering it.

"Uh, yeah. I think it's time to let it go. I'm totally bad at it, aren't I?" Nancy picked up a newspaper and hid herself behind it.Accidentally discovered that the report about the grand prize in Weasley's home happened to be in this newspaper.The family stood beaming in front of the pyramid, with Ron carrying his mouse, Scabbers, on his shoulders, and the twin brothers on the left.She stared at them for a while, found that she couldn't tell them apart and had to forget it.

Another week passed.Nancy received another letter from Harry.An angry black-haired boy could be seen through the letters.He said Aunt Marge had been torturing him in every possible way during the week and had said a lot of nasty things.

I'm glad you're not here.I don't want to say those vicious words to you.Anyway, I blew her up into a big balloon.Hogsmeade village is definitely in ruins!

Luckily the twist of events sorted it all out.I also met the Minister of Magic.He's such a nice guy.He reassured me that it was no big deal, and suggested that I stay at the Leaky Cauldron for the time being.There are three more weeks until school starts.It would be great if you could come to Diagon Alley.Every day I sit under the umbrella in front of Florin Foster's ice cream shop and do my homework.Hope to see you soon.

Miss you so much Harry

Nancy guessed that she would find it difficult to find an excuse except for the time when she went to Diagon Alley to buy things for school.Maybe she could show this letter to Snape, but I guess after watching Harry's miserable summer vacation, he could only get him an extra bowl of rice at most.To be honest, she couldn't understand why he hated Harry so much.

Snape took her to Draco's house the day before school started.The Malfoy family received them warmly.During the farewell, Lucius even offered to let Nancy stay here for one night before going to Hogwarts with Draco the next day.

"Are you worried about me and Narcissa? We will take good care of her. I don't think Nancy has been on the school bus yet? It's not perfect. Think about when you were in school."

In the end Snape had to agree to him, "I'll have Perry the house-elf bring Nancy's luggage."

Hearing the words house elf, Lucius' face twitched slightly.

"Okay, okay. Don't worry." Lucius sent Snape away enthusiastically.Then he turned to Draco and said, "Why don't you take Nancy into your room and have a look?"

Narcissa, who watched them go upstairs, glanced at Lucius and said meaningfully: "I thought you couldn't pretend? After all, you don't like the Potter brothers and sisters."

"It doesn't matter if I like it or not, as long as Draco is happy." Lucius said with a slightly sullen face.

Draco took Nancy to his room.This is a huge room with bright windows.

"Did you change rooms? I don't remember your previous room looking like this." Nancy said.

"I have more and more things. The previous room couldn't fit, so my mother changed it for me. Want to play with gobstones?" Draco took out a pair of pure gold chess pieces.

"No, thank you." Nancy turned her head and looked at him carefully.She had been preoccupied with the Malfoys during the first meal.These ancient wizarding families have a lot going on.You can't praise the delicious and rich food (because the food is prepared by the house elves, and praising the food is not praising the person who invited you), and you can't praise the hostess's dress today (because you must default that the hostess is decent every day).There are also various taboos on the table topic.Just trying to avoid it was enough to exhaust her mentally and mentally.

Apparently Draco had grown a few more inches this summer.Instead of brushing his hair up, he let it hang down freely.His short pale blond hair looked handsome against his gray eyes.He seems to have grown up suddenly, and he is completely different from last year.

"What are you doing? Staring at me all the time?" Draco looked uncomfortable.

"I was wondering if you secretly took the growth agent." Nancy realized that her behavior was a bit inappropriate and quickly made an excuse.

"Do you think I've grown taller?" He walked to a standing mirror and stroked his soft, broken hair with his hands.

"Oh, you are such a gentleman with a perfect appearance. Please forgive me for being exhausted. I really don't know how to praise you so that I can accurately express my admiration for your handsome appearance!" The mirror suddenly said affectionately.

"The sycophant mirror produced by Chili Guala Company!" Draco said with some embarrassment.He turned around and walked up to Nancy and looked at her, "You seem to have grown a little taller too." He reached out to measure her where he was, compared to his collarbone.He lowered his head slightly, realizing that if Nancy moved back a little further he seemed to be able to push her against the wall.Looking at her rosy lips, the color of roses, Draco's throat moved slightly.

"I'm sorry, maybe you would like to use some snacks." Mrs. Narcissa saw this scene as soon as she entered the door. Her son was about to push the girl into the wall. "The door is not closed." She looked at the two people who were looking at her at the same time and said with a smile.

Draco quickly covered his cough and walked over quickly.An elf wrapped in a clean white tea towel carried a large plate of refreshments on his head and placed them on a small coffee table by the window.

Madam Narcissa calmly warned him with her eyes slightly.She didn't want her son to be rude when Nancy was a guest at Malfoy Manor.Although they are still small.But kids these days seem to be more mature than they were back then.Snape wouldn't be happy to hear that.

After dinner, Draco took Nancy to see the night cherry blossoms in the garden.

"This is an improved variety transplanted from Japan. Except for winter, it blooms in the other three seasons. It blooms exclusively at night. The more intense and bright the moonlight is, the more it blooms. It will shrink back to its flower buds during the day."

Nancy looked up at the night cherry tree in full bloom in the moonlight.The pale pink flowers are clustered together.The evening wind blew, and the petals fell like a rain of petals.

Draco shook the petals on his body impatiently, and then reached out to pat Nancy, "I really want to clean you up. It's a pity that I didn't take my dad's wand."

"Are you a clean freak, Draco?" Nancy couldn't help asking Draco, who was frowning and picking petals.

"No!" Draco paused.

"Don't you think the petals are beautiful?" Nancy asked quietly.

"Of course, if they'd rather be in the trees," Draco replied.

"Do you know about Potter letting go of my elf?" Draco asked suddenly after a while.

"I do not know……"

"He put his socks in the book and tricked my father to throw them to Dobby the elf. If the master gave them clothes, it would be like releasing them, and they would be free." Draco said sullenly, "My father is very happy." Angry, it's not easy to make a contract with an elf. Especially this hereditary elf. I'm worried that he won't let you come this time. Fortunately, he separated you from Potter just like me Yes." Draco cheered again.

"If he doesn't want me to come, I'd be really happy." Because she was going to be a temporary guest at Malfoy's house, Snape helped her buy things for the new term, and she couldn't meet Harry in Diagon Alley.

"My father has no prejudice against you. After all, you were brought up by Professor Snape. My father respects Professor Snape very much. They were good friends at school." Draco explained quickly.

"Okay Draco, let's not talk about this." Nancy found it difficult to reach an agreement with many people on the topic of Harry. "But she did get a little upset.

"By the way, why have you never seen you have a pet?" Draco wisely changed the subject.

"You didn't raise it either!" Nancy followed him to the bench beside the flower bed and sat down.

"I have it, at home." Draco pulled out a silver chain from his collar, and whistled in his mouth with a very small and slender tube hanging from it.A lightning-like figure rushed over and squatted on his lap.

It was an oversized ferret thing.Silvery-white fur with a thin golden stripe running from the top of the head to the tail.

"What's this?" Nancy stared at the furry animal with wide eyes.

"Dolly! Dolly!" came the ferret's short, hard words.

"It can talk?" Nancy almost stood up in shock.

"Don't make such a fuss, it's a sable, of course it can talk." Draco stroked the soft fur lazily, "But they can't really talk, they can only speak very short words, and their IQ is very low. "

"Very low! Very low!" Ferret Dolly stared blankly at his master, trying to repeat Draco's words like a parrot.

"It's so cute. It says its name is Dolly? Would you take it to school?" Nancy wanted to touch its head, but she didn't dare to touch it casually after being bitten by a dragon. any animal.

"No," Draco said in a slightly depressed mood, "Dad said that this kind of animal is very rare, because of their ability to talk, the smuggling is very serious, and now there are not many of them in the whole of the UK. I can only raise them at home. "

"Keeping at home! Raising at home!" Dolly shouted stiffly.

Draco tossed it lightly on the ground, and Dolly disappeared in a flash. "However, there is a downside to having it, which is that you always have to hear the last word in your words. This animal likes to learn tongues, but it has a limited IQ and can't learn much."
