Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 3 The Lake Family

"Connor's Hogwarts"

Early the next morning, Connor got up to unwrap his Christmas presents. Since he had been living in a hut in the woods since he was a child, he did not go to school, had no neighbors, and had no relatives, so in fact there were only presents from his mother Flora.

Opening the box, there was a white fluffy dumpling—a velvet. Connor grabbed the dumpling. It must have been a bad experience for this velvet to stay in the gift box for a night.

The plush was soft to the touch, and Connor was pleased with the gift.

"Ah! Purongrong!" Ivan woke up and saw the dumpling, and rushed over to snatch it. Connor raised his hands, but Ivan couldn't reach it, so he could only "babble and babble" on the side.

"Where's your present, Ivan." Connor said, pointing to another gift box, after teasing Brother Yulip who was about to cry for a while.

After hearing this, Yiwen noticed that there was also a gift near his bed, and ran over to unwrap the gift again.

Ivan's Christmas gift was a blue puffer, and Ivan was very happy holding the blue fur ball. Since the last time he went to Diagon Alley with his mother and passed the pet store, he has been arguing for one.

Connor and Ivan haven't been out much. They are too young to use Floo powder, let alone Apparate. The last time they went out was to London by car.

Ivan was deeply impressed by the few times he went out. Of course, Connor was also impressed. The world of magic is really amazing.

"Connor! Ivan! Come down for breakfast!" Flora's voice came from downstairs.

"Here we come!" Connor hurried downstairs with the white hair dumpling in his arms, "Mom, thank you for your Christmas gift, I like it very much."

"Oh? Oh! Yes." Flora was a little absent-minded, waving her wand, and the breakfast plate consciously returned to its place.

"What's the matter? Mom" ​​aware of this, Connor asked suspiciously.

Flora hesitated for a moment, then seemed to have made up her mind, took Connor's hand and sat down on the sofa: "Connor, today I will take you out once, yes, we are going to visit your grandfather."

Connor squeezed Flora's trembling hand slightly, "Grandfather? So I still have a grandfather."

"Oh, of course, of course you have a grandfather, and you have two aunts, but for some reasons... we didn't visit them before." Flora said with a wry smile, "Connor, you are very talented. You know, I think you should learn from your grandfather, I can’t hinder your growth because of my own reasons.”

Of course Connor knew the reasons for this, but Connor didn't mention it tactfully. Every time he mentioned that cheap father before, Flora would become sad and irritable, "Today? Will Ivan go with you?"

"No, Ivan won't go with us today. He's too young. I'm worried he won't be able to use Floo well. Let Keke take care of him today." Flora shook her head.

"Floo powder! I can finally use it!" Connor was a little excited. Before, Flora would not let the two of them touch Floo powder. Every day, he saw Flora standing in the fireplace and the "bong" disappeared. , making Connor very greedy.

"Yes, we will set off after breakfast." Flora said with a smile.

"Lake Manor, Connor, read it a few more times, and don't say it out of tune."

In front of the fireplace in the woods hut (don’t ask why the tree house has a fireplace), Flora earnestly told Connor, and beside him stood the pitiful sniffling Eden, who accepted the idea of ​​"Mom and brother going out to play" after some thought work. I don’t bring myself, but after the fact that there will be a lot of delicious food at home that no one will grab from me”, Eden stopped making noise.

"I know, I know, Lake Manor, I can't read it wrong, mother."

"Okay, okay, this is Floo powder, grab a handful." Flora handed over a small jar, which contained half a jar of green fine powder.

Connor has seen a lot of methods used by Flora, and he is already familiar with the process, so he grabbed a handful of Floo powder and sprinkled it: "Lake Manor!"

The next second, Connor staggered out from another fireplace, shaking his head a little dizzily. Connor thought that this first experience of teleportation was not bad, but when he turned around, he was The old face that appeared in front of him jumped.

"Wow" After taking a few steps back to see the situation in front of me clearly, an old man with silver hair stood in front of him, squinting his eyes and staring at himself. The stranger in front of him was wearing a black robe, with a tall and straight figure, who looked about four 50 years old age.

"Hello...Hello, sir, my name is Connor Wright. I'm here to visit my grandfather." Connor said politely. Although he didn't know who the person in front of him was, it was always right to state his intention first. .

The silver-haired old man stared at Connor without saying a word, until he met Connor's blue eyes, then slowly walked over, put one hand on top of Connor's head, a chrysanthemum-like smile bloomed on his expressionless old face just now , "Connor, is that right, I am your grandfather Divin Lake, welcome home, son."

"Uh, oh, hello grandpa." Connor was taken aback, feeling the kindness released by the other party, and then relaxed.

At this time, a house elf appeared behind Grandfather Diwen with his head down, "Master, Miss Flora is back and is waiting at the door."

"Hmph! Let her in!" The grandfather who was still smiling just now snorted angrily, turned around and looked down at Connor with a warm smile on his face.

Connor was taken aback by this face-changing ability, and his grandfather bent over and took Connor's little hand and sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Only then did Connor have time to observe the house, and then Connor saw...paintings, paintings, paintings. The walls of this living room are covered with various paintings. There are about a dozen paintings in total, most of them are There were portraits, several landscape paintings and several empty frames. When Connor looked at these paintings, the people in the paintings were all looking at Connor and... talking about Connor.

"Oh? Our Lake family has a new descendant."

"Look at this kid, it's Flora's child, he looks like a little girl."

"Now little Diwen doesn't have to sigh in front of us every day, which is something to be happy about."

"Look at that kid's eyes, I bet, this kid is definitely not a law-abiding master."

......

"These are your ancestors, Connor." Grandfather noticed that Connor had been staring at the portrait and said with a smile, "This is your great-grandfather, Auston Lake. This is your great-great-grandfather, Ah. Chibald Lake, this is..."

At this moment, Flora had already walked in, watching Grandpa Diwen explaining the great achievements of his ancestors to Connor, he stood aside and listened without saying a word, his grandfather didn't seem to notice, and continued to lead Connor as he walked Said, Connor looked at this and then at that, and decided to keep calm and wait and see what happened.

After talking for more than ten minutes, the grandfather stopped and led Connor to sit back on the sofa. The house elf beside him brought a glass of water. The grandfather took the glass and asked, "What would Connor want to drink?"

Connor looked at the elf and then at his mother, Flora, and said, "I'd like a cup of hot cocoa, and Mom would like a glass of mead."

The house-elf looked at his grandfather hesitantly, and didn't retreat until his grandfather nodded. After a while, he brought two glasses of drinks and put them on the table.

"Sit down." Grandfather said to Flora coldly.

Flora sat down slowly, looking a little timid, "Dad..."

"Do you still remember that you have me as a father!?" Grandpa roared in a low voice, and the spacious living room seemed to echo. Connor could feel a powerful wave of magic power spreading out from the center of his grandfather, and then disappeared in a blink of an eye. not see.

Why are you so loud!Connor puffed up his cheeks and stared at his grandfather. If he didn't know that he couldn't beat him, this person would still be his grandfather. Seeing someone yelling at Flora like that, Connor would have kicked her.
