Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

"Sister Fang was your mother's best friend back then."

Li Chunyi took Adam and continued walking:

"You can trust her... Actually, strictly speaking, it's not something that needs to be hidden, as long as you don't tell your ancestors and grandpa."

Ms. Li's grandfather initially had no objections to her marriage to Mr. Reed, but after his ancestors expressed opposition, he sided with them.

Walking all the way to the ancestral hall in the Li family's old house, Adam discovered that Li Chunyi was not familiar with everyone in the Li family.

"We rarely stay here..."

Li Chunyi paused before continuing:

"Because of our ancestors, the Li family is actually not very popular in the wizarding world of Hong Kong Island."

To the Li family, they are very patriotic, but to the people from the Chinese Ministry of Magic, the Li family inevitably seems to be in the Cao camp and in the Han Dynasty.

At the ancestral hall, Adam met Ms. Li's other two brothers and their families. He also met Ms. Li's grandfather, Adam's own great-grandfather, and Adam's grandparents were also there.

Except for the ancestors, it can be said that everyone from Grandpa Adam's lineage is here from top to bottom.

"My ancestors are entertaining people from the Ministry of Magic. I don't know what they are talking about."

Grandpa Li Ziquan took Adam to worship the ancestors. Grandma Shen Derong held his hand and said:

"So the matter of entering the genealogy will have to wait until tomorrow. You are also tired from the journey, so you need to rest for a night."

"There's no rush."

Adam nodded and looked at the other people in the temple.

His uncles all had very friendly eyes, looking at him with a bit of excitement and consideration, as if they wanted to see a bit of Ms. Li in his face, while their family members looked at Adam with More of a curiosity.

Adam's great-great-grandfather said nothing during the whole process. He only spoke after hearing him speak:

"She speaks Chinese well."

At this time, even in Hong Kong Island, there are a large number of people who speak English. Adam, a child who grew up abroad, has no Chinese accent. It seems that Ms. Li has never forgotten her roots.

"Since elementary school."

Adam didn't know how to treat this great-grandfather whose hairstyle and beard looked inexplicably like Mr. Lu Xun's, so he had to keep a certain distance.

Nodding to Adam, the great-grandfather asked Adam's grandfather a few questions, probably about where Adam would live and where to eat. After hearing that everything had been arranged, he left.

After the great grandfather left, the sound of relief could be heard in the ancestral hall.

A group of people were stunned when they heard such a neat sound. They looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Even Adam's grandfather showed some relief in his eyes. Obviously, having his great-grandfather there was also a very stressful thing for him:

"Stop standing in the ancestral hall. Let's go. It's almost time to have evening tea. Let's talk while eating."

Adam's grandfather spoke, and of course everyone obeyed.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we had reserved a private room long ago. Ms. Li was already waiting there. Aunt Fang, whom we had met before, was also there. The two seemed to be chatting happily.

Seeing the arrival of Adam and his party, Aunt Fang picked up her bag and left. Adam's grandfather originally wanted to keep her to eat with him, but Aunt Fang said she would send her son to make up lessons...

Adam was shocked. Is Hong Kong Island so busy so early?

But think about that cousin who is said to have lower blood pressure than Aunt Fang in the three subjects combined... If Aunt Fang does not have high blood pressure, then his average score in each subject is only thirty or forty, and he really needs to make up for it.

but……

"Are there any extra classes for the magic subject here?"

"It's not a magic school class, it's an ordinary elementary school class. Awen isn't old enough to go to a magic school yet."

Ms. Li and the others were reminiscing about old times together. Sitting in the corner were children from several families. The person speaking was Li Kuye, the son of Adam’s third uncle, who was three years older than Adam. Adam wanted to call him cousin.

And Awen is naturally Aunt Fang's son, the child who was chased and beaten by the flying feather duster before.

Adam was stunned after hearing this:

"You... still want to go to an ordinary school?"

In Adam's understanding, only Muggle-born wizards would go to other schools before entering school. Whether other young wizards have preschool education depends entirely on their parents.

There were people like Cologne who had never learned anything before coming to Hogwarts, and there were people like Uther who already knew the Fire Curse.

"Yes! You have to continue learning after going to magic school! It's hard to find a job by just learning magic! There are so many people in Hong Kong, and there are only so many positions. If you only know magic and don't learn anything else, how can you use Fenghua to recruit people to move bricks? ?”

Li Kuye looked helpless:

"Nowadays, even store recruitment has academic requirements, and the official establishment of the Ministry of Magic requires a bachelor's degree. In addition to learning magic, we must not fall behind in other subjects."

"Hiss--that's terrible."

Adam shook his head, then his eyes lit up and he looked at his cousin:

"Are you willing to go abroad in the future? How about you come work here?"

"Wow, forget it. We don't know how to cook, and our English is not good. If we go there, we can only help my aunt carry the dishes, which will embarrass her in front of my uncle~"

The speaker was Li Cuda, the second uncle's son, one year younger than Adam.

The other party seemed quite sincere, and Adam couldn't tell whether the words were sincere or weird, but he didn't mention them anymore. He just said them casually on a whim.

"Are you working in Auntie's restaurant? Or doing other jobs? Do you work in the wizarding world or...?"

Li Cuoye listened to it - he was no longer a child, graduation was just around the corner, and the Li family was not easy to get along in the wizarding world of Hong Kong Island, and it was even more difficult to find a job.

His second uncle and fourth uncle went to the mainland and the United States respectively, leaving only his father to stay in Hong Kong Island. Li Cuoda might not be interested in working in the UK, but for him, this was a great opportunity to not have to stay in Hong Kong Island and suffer from death.

He didn't want to go to the UK to be a parasite and wait for death. Seeing that his father and eldest aunt had such a good relationship, it should be no problem to help him find a regular job, right?

Adam looked at Li Cuoye in surprise, and then said:

"I plan to open a few stores in the wizarding world after graduation..."

"..."

Li Cuoye was silent for a while before speaking:

"You? How many stores?"

For a moment, he didn't know which of the two keywords would hurt him more.

"Oh? Is Adam planning to open my eldest sister's restaurant in the wizarding world of Britain?"

The people chatting over there heard their conversation. The second uncle turned his head and looked at Adam in surprise, then looked at Ms. Li:

"Sister, Adam not only inherited your talent for cultivation, but also your talent for business. He has a bright future!"

"Not only that, he even inherited your talent for cooking, and he is even better than you."

Ms. Li sighed:

"Now he is the chef for all the banquets in their school. He didn't spend any money last year, but earned a lot of money. He also attracted a lot of wizard customers to my and Jerry's store."

Li Chunyi's eyes widened, and he turned back to look at Adam.

The words he just said...actually, they were more of a blessing. After all, Adam is only a few years old now, how can we tell whether he has a talent for business? It's right to praise him first.

Li Cuoye and Li Cuoda: ...

Did they suddenly hear hallucinations just now? What do you mean that the cousin is the chef for the school banquet?
