Harry Potter Morning Light

For Egypt, which is dominated by agriculture, locust plagues and hailstorms will definitely affect the harvest. In addition, the "red tide" killed all the fish in the Nile River, and the plague on animals also killed a large number of livestock. In the year that the Israelites left Egypt, Egypt People should have a bad time too.

Food is something that human beings take for granted every day, but the diet in peacetime is completely different from that in times of natural and man-made disasters.

The vampire Giovanni lives on the island of Giudecca. If the main island of Venice is shaped like a fish, then Giudecca and Giudecca are like a "fish plate" that is too small. The transportation here is inconvenient. If you don't have your own It is very difficult to get here once the water bus stops, which is very inconvenient for tourists who want to experience the nightlife of Venice.

Even if several churches are included, it is difficult to find a conspicuous landmark on Giudecca Island, which is the least distinctive among a series of islands in Venice.

But before the 20th century, it used to be the back garden of the rich in Venice. Many palaces and private gardens were located on the island for summer vacation and parties.

Paolo Veronese's Cana weddings may have been inspired by these rich people's banquets.

Beautiful and healthy figures, gorgeous costumes, resplendent buildings, dazzling decorations and utensils are different from the strict format and color used in religious oil paintings.

He even added clowns, alcoholics, Germans, midgets, and other peasant objects to other paintings. Adding secular things to religious paintings is subject to the Inquisition, and in fact Paolo Veronese was also summoned.

In 1572, Veronese was accused of painting a dog on this painting, The Feast at the House of Levi, painted for the refectory of the monastery of St. Paul.

This is a monstrous blasphemy, when the Abbot of St. Paul's asked him to paint Mary Magdalene, and he would gladly do whatever had to be done for the honor of his art, but he couldn't understand why it was painted there. The last Magdalene would have been appropriate.

The original theme of the painting was the Last Supper, but in order to avoid trouble, he changed the name of the painting to "Levi's House Banquet" to end the controversy.

In the dinner painting, Veronese also added the man holding the bleeding nose, he wanted to portray a servant whose nose was bleeding due to some accident.

There are two heavily armed soldiers holding halberds and dressed like Germans in the painting. One is drinking heavily and the other is eating on the nearby steps. Many servants, Veronese thought it would be reasonable to draw them.

There is also a man dressed like a clown with a parrot on his wrist. His existence is for decoration, expressing the painter's "poetic presumptuousness".

Compared with Titian's works with profound thoughts, Veronese's paintings that specialize in depicting joyful and lively scenes appear to be full of life, flashy and relaxed, and completely lack the ascetic desertedness of Rome.

There are several paintings of Veronese on the wall of the vampire Giovanni's house, some are genuine and some are fakes. Although Veronese was dead when he became a vampire, Veronese's paintings at that time were not as good as they are now. so expensive.

There are many collections in his home, including Egyptian ones, not only sculptures, but also coffins.

Vampires need to sleep in coffins, and what better disguise than that?

The windows of Giovanni's house are still closed even during the day, but the house is brightly lit. His "blood slave" Simeon is a very young and beautiful Slovenian boy. He had black curly hair, but it wasn't tanned by the Mediterranean sun like the average Latin boy.

He is a child of refugees from Eastern Europe. Perhaps because of too much experience, his expression has a maturity different from that of his peers.

He has good cooking skills and his dream is to become a chef in a Michelin restaurant.

If a cow wants to produce good milk, it must be carefully raised. If a vampire wants to drink delicious blood, the blood slave must also eat well and rest well. After being picked up by Giovanni, he finally ended his unstable life of wandering on the streets and began to develop in a good direction.

The main dish he is going to cook today is charcoal-grilled crabs. After the spider crabs just caught from the lagoon are grilled with charcoal, they are eaten with a dipping sauce composed of caviar, sea urchin and crab paste.

Then there are the meatballs, which are the American way of eating them mixed with pasta, and they spoil not only the pasta, but the meatballs as well.

Simeon's recipe is meatballs mixed with chopped parsley, fried in butter, topped with a chili, garlic sauce, and finally sprinkled with fennel and lemon juice.

Pomona is in charge of helping him, and lives with a vampire who is in the morning and night. Simeon's biological clock is also different from that of ordinary people.

Pomona had a perfunctory lunch before, but now she really feels the happiness brought by cooking and food.

Giovanni brought back wild porcini mushrooms that Simeon intended to use for risotto, and now it was simmering with onions, asparagus, and pancetta, even if she wasn't very hungry , Smelling the taste also feels appetite.

Chocolate ice cream is classic, but kirsch-flavored ice cream is also a wonderful try, sprinkled with nuts and placed in a glass handmade in Venice, both in appearance and taste are perfect.

Both Italian and Chinese dishes are very complicated, but the British have turned them into cheap takeaways. It seems that there are no other delicacies in these two countries except pizza and Kung Pao Chicken.

Then she remembered the scene where she had to insist on eating cuttlefish pasta, and felt extremely embarrassed. No wonder the locals were not interested in that dish. Why eat noodles when there are better meals?

In the living room off the kitchen, Giovanni is playing the piano, Bach.

Accompanied by the sound of music like that, she felt inexplicably as if she was making a work of art.

Especially after the crabs were grilled and Simeon put them on the plate, she never thought that roses could also be used to set the plate.

When she left the kitchen and was about to call the two of them for dinner, Severus was reading in the study next to the living room.

"Look at this," he said with a smirk.

"What's this?"

"A manuscript by Brother Francis, he seems to have touched the marten." Severus said, pointing to his big nose. "It bit the nose of the monk, and it bled for hours."

Pomona immediately took the Latin manuscript and read it:

While I was working in the herb garden today I was pulling away those basil and found a large ferret that didn't run or hide like normal ferrets, instead it jumped at me and knocked me on my back on the ground, and yelled at me "Go away, baldy!"

Then it bit my nose and I bled for hours and the dervish didn't believe me and asked me if I had drunk too much.

I couldn't go to vespers because of my swollen nose, then I met the painter who painted for the monastery in the refectory, we chatted about it while we were eating together, he laughed and said incredible, I didn't know him What are you laughing at? what's so funny?

"Oh my God!" Pomona exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Severus asked incredulously.

Pomona was also not sure if this monk happened to be the man with the bleeding nose in "Levi's Banquet", but such a reminder reminded her of one thing.

In addition to discussing the Crusades, the International Wizarding Summit in 1692 also discussed the annoying issue of magical animals, which animals should be hidden from Muggles.

At that time, centaurs and mermaids also reluctantly participated. Although they were divided into animals, after 7 weeks of discussion, a result was finally discussed. 27 kinds of animals from dragons to bandimangs will be hidden from Muggles.

But the goblins don't seem to agree, but they have to accept it when most people agree.

"It's time to eat." She stuffed the manuscript back to him.

Severus held the manuscript in a daze, as if he didn't understand what she was thinking.

I read the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and the original book was written at Jegg Abbey in Worcestershire, England
