Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy
Chapter 181 Dursley
Although Vernon Dursley didn't have much contact with Snape,
But from Snape's attitude, we can also guess the real reason why his family was invited.
After all, Harry had to live in their house for one month every year. The crazy old man known as the First Wizard personally discussed this with him.
If that freak who had just been released from prison really wanted to invite them, Snape wouldn't be the one to come.
Instead, I send out the invitation myself.
Now he just sent so-called servants to pick them up, without inviting or consulting them. His inner attitude is self-evident.
I'm afraid Snape's so-called invitation was all proposed by himself to make Vernon look good on him.
The fact is exactly as Vernon expected,
A guy from a family like Sirius, who doesn't discriminate against Muggles and is already a moral role model in the family, how can he still take them seriously?
This has nothing to do with good or evil, it is simply a matter of different views, which is determined by the environment in which one grew up.
On the contrary, it was Snape, as a half-blood wizard who grew up in a Muggle community, who knew the value of the word "respect".
"I won't go. The company has something to deal with, so let Penny and Dali go."
Vernon said,
This is already his biggest concession. It can be said that the other party clearly looks down on their family.
It's just that Harry had to invite them because of the curse on him.
Although he asked himself, Vernon Dursley did treat Harry badly,
But the family took Harry in at the risk of retaliation, and Dursley never received a penny of benefit from the Potter name.
Therefore, Vernon is fully qualified to say no to those so-called "wizard dignitaries".
Snape also understood what Vernon meant;
But if you really do what Vernon said, it would be equivalent to giving up the relationship between the two families that was already on the verge of being broken.
Even if the relationship is severed, it must be Harry's own decision. This cannot happen because of Sirius' negligence.
That's why Snape made the extra trip himself,
He knew that if he let Sirius, that wild dog, do things, he would definitely mess things up.
Snape understood Vernon's attitude very well.
He also knew how to interest Vernon in such an occasion.
He looked at Vernon, who was sitting on the dining table chair without even thinking about getting up.
"Although the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy does not allow the existence of wizards to be revealed, the upper echelons of the Muggle world have always been connected with the wizarding world.
At tomorrow's banquet, not only will Downing Street send representatives there, but the princess will also take her two sons to relax.
But after all, it is a wizard's banquet, and Muggles are a minority. As Harry's family member in the Muggle world, if you are present, you can make these guests less nervous. "
Snape said,
This is a clear inducement,
Vernon Dursley works as a manager in a company that produces electric motors. Among ordinary people, he is considered one of the better off.
But compared to the nobles, even the lords at the bottom of the noble system are far inferior.
Don't talk about him, even his boss is far behind those knights.
Now, an opportunity was placed in front of him. At a banquet, he could not only come into contact with the royal family he had only seen on TV, but
You can also have direct contact with key officials in Downing Street.
With such an opportunity before him, what reason could Vernon Dursley have to refuse?
At this moment, he could probably understand why Sirius Black sent a few servants to pick up the family. With his family background, even if he was not a wizard, he would still look down on the Dursleys.
After struggling for a moment, Vernon sighed.
"I understand, let's pack our bags now."
Harry will probably stay in the wizarding world in the future, but the Dursleys will always live in the Muggle world.
It's not a bad thing for the Dursleys to be in contact with those big shots.
After a moment, a carriage emerged from the air. This was the effect of the illusion curse.
"It's the Thestral."
Harry pointed to the front of the carriage and said, but it was a pity that only he and Snape could see the two black and skinny pegasus.
The other three people's eyes were focused on the carriage.
This carriage has beautiful lines and is made of unknown black-brown wooden material, but it is not simple at all.
Because its entire frame is made of gold, even the four wheels of the carriage are made of gold!
The roof of the car is surrounded by a circle of gold carvings.
The wooden doors and body are painted with golden paint to outline a special pattern.
The most conspicuous place in the center of the car door is a family crest.
A shield decorated with a pediment, two five-pointed stars and a dagger, flanked by two leaping greyhounds.
This is the coat of arms of the Black family,
Vernon, who was still a little uncomfortable at first, felt a lot more comfortable after seeing this carriage. Even in the royal family, such a carriage would only be used on important occasions, such as the weddings of royal members.
This meant that even though Sirius had never thought of respecting their Muggle family, he at least gave him the face he deserved.
"Little Master Harry Potter, Dobby is here to pick you up!"
The little creature driving the car jumped out as soon as he parked the car, jumped to Harry's side, grabbed the luggage in his hand, and diligently placed Harry's luggage on the carriage.
The smile on Dobby's face was extremely genuine. The last time he saw Harry was last Christmas.
More than half a year has passed.
The space inside the carriage is much larger than it looks from the outside. Although it looks like the size of an ordinary carriage from the outside, its interior space is about the same as a lounge.
There were bookshelves, desks, and snacks and drinks. Dali rummaged through the drawers, and he actually found some snacks, which was a fat tongue toffee.
Although he was really losing weight, Vernon didn't want to control him these days. After all, there was a banquet tomorrow, and there was no way to control Dali's mouth in the past two days.
He even thought about feeding Dali first to save him from being embarrassed at the banquet tomorrow. He knew that his own son would just be embarrassed at home and at school.
If he was really embarrassed in front of the royal family and Downing Street dignitaries, Vernon would have a headache.
However, Dally is not really rebellious. In fact, some of his bad habits are due to either Vernon or Petunia indulging him.
Now that the Dursleys were on the same page, seeing this situation, Dali knew that he had to restrain himself tomorrow, otherwise he would be uncomfortable being liquidated later.
In the carriage, Snape was checking Harry's study progress over the past month on his desk.
The Dursleys are discussing what needs attention tomorrow.
Dali stuck out his big tongue and continued to look for food.
After passing through a barrier imperceptible to Muggles, Black Manor arrived.
