Chapter 168 My Nephew Harry
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner according to Vernon's script - this made Vernon feel more and more happy.When Sirius presented him with a fire lily and a bottle of Bordeaux wine, he was in a state of flux.

He didn't know wine, but the 1952 on the bottle alone made it impossible to lower the price, and fire lily was an outrageously expensive flower.Fire lily is the most delicate flower in Grandia. Its flowering period is only one week per year. Its purple petals, golden tentacles and budding stamens make people crazy about it.This kind of flower currently costs nearly a thousand pounds to buy a pot.

These two gifts made Vernon very happy.He hastily invited the guests in, and then arranged them according to the rehearsed steps.

Soon they were at the table.

Mason couldn't help being surprised when he saw the sumptuous dinner: "It's really hard work for you, Vernon, it must have taken so much trouble to prepare so many dishes!"

"No, no, don't worry, haha!" Vernon's face turned purple. Even though they had been preparing the ingredients since the morning, in his mouth, this was still a trivial matter.

Dinner began with the Vernons' touts.They complimented Mrs. Mason's clothes first, and talked a little about golf until the keen Vernon caught a glimpse of the blankness on Sirius' face with his small eyes--these were topics he didn't understand at all.

Vernon immediately realized that something was wrong: Sirius probably didn't play golf.There was a hint of surprise in his heart: it doesn't make sense!Why hasn't he played golf.But this is obviously not his problem, but his own problem, which is his own rudeness.Vernon quickly reviewed himself with an introspective attitude that he had rarely used before.

It has to be said that Vernon's sixth sense is really keen.

Sirius was so sleepy right now that he just wanted to curl himself up and sleep.

Vernon quickly brought up the topic of aristocratic sports in his understanding, and Mr. Mason also understood, and began to talk about fox hunting and equestrianism with Vernon: Mason also wanted to get closer to his boss.

Vernon and Mason have never been in contact with these two sports, but it does not prevent them from being familiar with these two sports. They are just like sports car enthusiasts with a monthly salary of several thousand yuan, and they know things that are completely unrelated to themselves.

Sirius:……

In fact, Sirius was still listening to Vernon and the two of them chatting very seriously, because he was really interested in Muggle sports.But the problem is that he dare not open his mouth to ask casually, because he is afraid of asking some questions that have no common sense at all, which makes him look very silent
But when they started talking about hunting small animals, Sirius finally encountered a topic he was familiar with—he still had a lot of experience in hunting small animals, so he actively joined the conversation.

This made Vernon and the others breathe a sigh of relief: they had finally scratched his itch.Although during the conversation, Vernon always had an illusion: Sirius in front of him seemed to be participating in fox hunting activities as a dog.

When the barbecue was served, Vernon began to chat about family affairs: "Mr. Black, you must come from an old and noble family?"

Sirius: (ー`ー)
"Ah."

"Wow, can you tell me about your family?"

Sirius:……

"Only such an ancient family can educate people like you!"

Sirius:……

"Indeed, family has a great influence on my personality." He could only pick up the irrelevant places and say a few words in the end.He really didn't lie, his current personality was indeed caused by his family environment.

"Mason, you seem to have mentioned before that you and Duke Roman went on an adventure together in the Alps when you were young." Mrs. Mason took over the conversation.

"Ha, extreme sports, yes, I used to play these when I was young, sir, what extreme places have you been to?"

"Azkaban. It's the most extreme place I've ever been."

Vernon felt a little familiar with this place name. He seemed to have heard of it before, and he put on a smiley face: "I seem to have heard of this place."

"Have you heard of it?" Sirius was surprised: Is this place so well-known among Muggles?
"I heard that the natural environment there must be good, right? Of course it must be very extreme."

"That's right, it's very extreme..."

The dinner was going on in an awkward chat, and Sirius also took the opportunity to catch up on some Muggle common sense.After the dinner was over, the ladies went to drink coffee, and the three big men chatted about drilling rigs at the dining table.

In no time, Vernon was signing the biggest order of his life.Sirius gave Mason a wink, and the latter found an excuse to leave. Only Vernon and Sirius were left in the restaurant.

"Actually, the purpose of my coming today is mainly to thank you for raising my godson for 11 years." Sirius said slowly.

Vernon:! ! !
"Godson? Why didn't I know that Dali had such a godfather, could it be..."

"Thank you for bringing Harry up."

He is shocked.

That Harry had such a decent, rich godfather!It's not science, it's not theology, it's not even magic!This kind of gentleman has nothing to do with magic!Vernon's heart was broken.

At that moment, there were a million possibilities. Uncle Vernon just wanted to curl up in bed and didn't want to face the cold.

He can't accept this reality!
Sirius quickly took out a pen and a checkbook, quickly wrote down a series of numbers, and handed the check to Vernon.Vernon took it and gasped: Sirius paid £10 very generously!
It's hard to imagine what Sirius sold for...

In front of Sterling, Uncle Vernon's attitude towards magic quickly softened: he felt that his previous impression of the magic world was a little off.There were eccentric lunatics and gentlemen like Mr. Black.

Vernon quickly accepted it all.

The visit ended in an atmosphere of joy between the guests and the host.

Early the next morning, Uncle Vernon was humming a little song and weeding his lawn when he saw his neighbor next door coming out of his basement pushing a lawn mower.

"nice weather!"

"Yeah, it was a great day for weeding. How was your dinner party yesterday?"

"Very good." Vernon's purple face became even more rosy, "Mason's boss is Harry's godfather, the same Harry who lost his parents, he has a great godfather. He will be from that school soon The school in the distance is back."

Vernon pointed to a passing car and said, "Oh! What a surprise it would be if Harry were in this car! My nephew Harry!"
