Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 209 The Farm
"So can people really fly around on a broomstick?"

The next day, An Ran seemed to be in a much better mood, probably because she knew that she was not a unique freak, so her personality became a little more cheerful.

"Of course! It's called Quidditch, a very exciting sport, and Maureen is the main force of Gryffindor." Hugo said carelessly.

"What about you?" An Ran asked.

"I'm the keynote speaker of the whole school, even better." Hugo puffed up his chest.

"Yes, it's amazing." Maureen said and climbed into the school bus, and the three of them sat in the last row as usual. Today Margery and Julie will take them to visit the farm in the small town and learn about farm knowledge.

Maureen introduced the four colleges to An Ran, what is Potions class, what is the Ministry of Magic, and also introduced many interesting shops in Diagon Alley.

"What if my mother doesn't believe it?" An Ran hesitated.

"They will send someone to explain the situation to your parents next month, don't worry." Maureen threw his schoolbag under his feet, "Although you won't be forced to go to school, it's better for you to be in Hogwarts than in a Muggle school , your parents know this very well."

Maureen found Hollus in the carriage. Because Hollus spit out a dung beetle last night, no one dared to sit with him today. He sat in two seats by himself, very annoyed. And beat up a boy who talked about him.

The bus quickly drove into a small town at the foot of the mountain. Next to the town was a farm. In the field, green wheat waves were blowing in the wind, strong cows were basking in the sun on the grass, and tractors were driving in the field.

"Do wizards have farms too?" An Ran asked.

"Yes, the wizard's farm is more abundant. For example, you can see watermelons and pumpkins growing on big trees. Oh yes, watermelons may also be taller than people."

Maureen was no stranger to farms, and he had been to the farm in Hogsmeade village several times last time.

"Then you also use tractors to plow the fields?"

"Tractor, oh, you mean this cumbersome guy? So it's called a tractor!" Maureen looked at the blue tractor with big wheels curiously, then shook his head: "We only use simple tools such as shovels, rakes, etc. gone."

"Isn't that backward?"

"It's okay! Those tools will work automatically, just say a spell and they will plow the field much faster than this cumbersome machine."

Mo Lin followed everyone along the path of the farm, saw a scarecrow fixed on a tree, and said: "Our scarecrow can move, I have always wondered, how can a scarecrow that cannot move become popular? Hairy sparrow."

"Really? Scarecrows can move too? How do they move?" An Ran was very interested in things like magic. Yesterday, she followed Mo Lin to the treetops to watch the sunset. She had no doubts about magic.

"To be honest, An Ran, when you enter Hogwarts, you will find that things that move are normal, and things that don't move are rare." Molin said.

The most classic thing is painting. For Maureen and Hugo, who came from a wizard family, it is normal for a painting to move, and it is strange for a painting that does not move.

The farmer who received them, Mr. Batley, enthusiastically introduced how the farm uses machines to milk cows.

Muggle farms have all realized technology. When milking, the cows are driven into a factory building, which is surrounded by fences, and each cow stands in a grid. The machine that Hugo had a headache started to run, and the machines in the whole factory were rumbling, mixed with the mooing of cows, which was very noisy.

"It's interesting, isn't it? I never knew how milk is squeezed like this before." An Ran was very interested, "How do wizards milk cows?"

"I don't know, I only drink milk." Hugo spread his hands, and his tone was very sincere.

"I've seen it before, it doesn't need to be so troublesome." Maureen yawned, "The cows don't have to be driven into such a crowded place, they are only responsible for grazing, and there will be a bucket flying around on the grass to milk the cows of."

Maureen and Hugo were not as interested in farm affairs as those Muggle children, but their trip was not in vain, and they also learned a lot of Muggle knowledge.

"Maybe I can get an excellent grade in Muggle Studies next semester, and my mother will be happy. Think about it! I already know what a tractor is used for." Hugo said confidently.

"Really? What are they used for?" Mo Lin asked with a smirk.

"It's for... it's for..." Hugo rubbed his chin, his brows furrowed into a ball, "it's for... don't tell me, I almost thought of it..."

Lunch was eaten at a restaurant named Adams in the small farm town. The restaurant was decorated very warmly, and the whole style was in a strong Scottish style.The owner of the restaurant is Adams, a very hospitable middle-aged man. He arranged seats for everyone and invited everyone to taste freshly squeezed iced strawberry juice for free.

"I love this restaurant."

Hugo found that Muggle food was also good, and although he hadn't remembered what the tractor was for, he had a good appetite and ate two.

Margery took them to rest on the woods and grass next to the farm in the small town. Molin and the others chose a blue cloth mat and lay it under the tree next to it. The breeze is very comfortable.

An Ran couldn't wait to know more about wizards, she asked a lot of questions, and Mo Lin answered them patiently.Many people were already lying in the trees for an afternoon rest. Mo Lin stretched out boredly, glanced at the path of the farm in the distance inadvertently, and suddenly gasped softly.

"What's wrong?" Hugo asked.

"Sweeter, why is he here?" Molin pointed to a hurried figure on the path in the distance. This guy was wearing a white shirt and Muggle sunglasses, and he was walking towards the town looking left and right.

"Oh, does he live here?" Hugo also recognized it, and Sweet's dress was also very rustic, especially the Muggle sunglasses, which looked very weird on an 11-year-old. He pretended to be a Muggle Apparently neither.

"Who is he?" An Ran asked curiously.

"It's our roommate, do you want to say hello?" Hugo thought for a while, "If he lives here, maybe we can visit his house as a guest!"

"Let's go, anyway, if you are idle at noon, you are idle."

Maureen glanced at Margery and Julie. Julie was lying on the grass and sleeping, and Margery was playing with his mobile phone. No one noticed them.They quietly went around and ran towards Sweet, and An Ran followed. To her, only Mo Lin and Hugo would not reject her, so she trusted them more.

"Hey! Sweet!" Maureen yelled.

Sweet stopped in his tracks, turned around vigilantly, looked very serious, and found that it was Maureen and Hugo, and the expression on his face relaxed slightly.

"It's you, why are you here?" Sweet asked.

"We are here to participate in the summer camp, you know, to learn Muggle knowledge." Maureen pointed to the small town ahead, "Does your family live here?"

Sweet shook his head: "I don't live here."

"Then what are you doing here?" Hugo asked puzzledly, "Are you also here to attend the summer camp?"

"I'm not going to camp, I'm here for an important thing," Sweet said.
