Chinese students at Hogwarts.

The semester was over, and a silence as thick as the snow on the ground enveloped the entire castle.

The little wizards who went home for Christmas left the castle on the Hogwarts train the night before.

The whole school suddenly became much quieter and even became empty.

Zhang Xiao didn't feel dull, but felt very peaceful.

Because of the attack, the number of students who chose to stay at Hogwarts was particularly small.

Although Fred and George decided to stay at school, except for coming back to sleep at night, they stayed in Hogsmeade during the day. Their experiment seemed to have reached a critical point.

Although Mrs. Weasley was very worried about Ginny, the mandrakes in the herb greenhouse gradually matured.

Her mood also calmed down a lot, because Professor Sprout told her that Ginny would be resurrected unscathed in a few months.

Zhang Xiao feels that if ordinary people know about this technology, they will go crazy. There will not be a mature freezing technology until 2023.

Those who are seriously ill can definitely find an opportunity to gaze lovingly at the basilisk through the mirror.

It's safe and painless, and the technology is guaranteed. It's like being frozen in time. It's very easy to use.

Perhaps Ginny's petrification touched the emotions of the Weasleys, and the couple decided to go to Egypt and Romania to see Bill and Charlie.

One of them works as a curse breaker in Gringotts, responsible for solving the curse left by the pharaoh in the pyramid for the goblins and obtaining the treasure.

Of course the treasure belongs to the fairies.

This is because the Egyptian Ministry of Magic is too weak. It has been pooped and peed on by goblins, and even its ancestors' graves have been dug up, and there is nothing they can do about it.

This shows that although the goblins were defeated, they were still strong.

They are digging up people's ancestral graves all over the world, except in China.

Another Charlie is raising dragons in Romania.

They are all high-risk occupations, and they often receive casualty notices.

After all, the family concept in the West is very different from that in the East. Bill and Charlie are both high-income people.

But he is relatively independent and has his own life after work.

If we were to leave China, there would be so many younger brothers and sisters, and the two elder brothers would definitely have to support the family. There would never be a situation where the two elder brothers earn half a million yuan a year, and the younger brother still uses second-hand things.

In the previous life, Zhang Xiao himself knew that there were many brothers who immediately took the initiative to carry the family on their shoulders after they came out.

We cannot say which of the two concepts is better or worse, we can only say that the cultures are different.

Percy stayed, too, and proudly told them that he only stayed for Christmas because it was his duty, as a straight-A student, to support his teachers during this turbulent time.

Everyone sneered at this, because almost everyone in the school knew that Percy stayed here for the convenience of dating Penello.

Penello's home is not far from Hogwarts, and the two have long agreed to travel to Hogsmeade together during this holiday to experience what it would be like to spend Christmas alone.

By the way, when the two of them were kissing and talking about their plans in an unmanned classroom, the entire small dueling club was hiding and eavesdropping.

The dawn of Christmas has arrived, and Hogwarts is like being thrown into the refrigerator. There is cold air everywhere, and there is thick snow outside.

Only Zhang Xiao and Malfoy were left in the dormitory.

Malfoy felt as if a bone loosening spell had been cast on him, lying limp in the warm bed with no strength at all.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened a gap in the curtain, and the cold air came in through the gap.

Malfoy shivered, immediately shrank back into the quilt, and shouted loudly:

"Zhang, would it be better if we just sleep until lunch?"

Zhang Xiao had woken up long ago, but he was also staying in bed. The air conditioner in summer and the quilt in winter both have a fatal attraction for humans.

"I can do it!"

It was Malfoy's first Christmas at school, and the novelty eventually took over.

He gritted his teeth and crawled out of bed, put on his clothes as quickly as possible, and muttered:

"I'd better get up. Weasley and Potter have already boasted to me that the school hall will be decorated like-"

After swallowing the second half of the sentence, Malfoy looked at the gifts that almost filled the entire dormitory and shouted:

"bloody hell! Why so many gifts?"

To be honest, as the top rich second generation in the wizarding world, the gifts Malfoy receives every year are definitely not too small.

That is to say, Zhang Xiao taught him to stay away from vulgar taste, otherwise he would definitely use the number of gifts to mock Weasley and Potter.

But the number in front of him was too exaggerated. After just a cursory glance, Malfoy felt that the pile of gifts in front of him totaled at least more than 300!

The pile of about eighty or ninety gifts next to him was obviously missing, and most of them should be his own.

Because this is similar to the amount he used to receive every year.

Zhang Xiao lazily stuck his head out from behind the curtain, glanced at it, and let out a long yawn:

"It seems to be a little more than last year."

Zhang Xiao took out his wand and flicked it, summoning the clothes on the hanger. Malfoy had already gotten up, and he was too embarrassed to stay in bed.

He vaguely felt that before he blocked his cognition, he didn't have to worry so much about getting dressed.

But I can't remember exactly what I did, which makes me feel uncomfortable.

After a while, when I was about to put on my sweater, I suddenly remembered something and jumped out of bed quickly.

After rummaging through the gift 'mountain' for a while, I found the gift sent by Mrs. Weasley.

After opening the gift, there was still the Weasley family's traditional thick sweater and a large box of Mrs. Molly's homemade fudge.

Although it is not very expensive, it is hard to come by.

Malfoy watched Zhang Xiao put on the Slytherin green sweater. There was a 'Z' embroidered with silver wool on the chest.

He said slowly: "What is this? I feel like I have seen it somewhere.

It seems to be on Weasley? "

Zhang Xiao opened the packaging of the gummies, stuffed one in his mouth, and said vaguely:

"Well, I have one every year. It's quite warm."

Mrs. Weasley's craftsmanship is as superb as ever. The fudge is not very sweet, and has a rich milky flavor, and it seems that a little mint is added.

Malfoy curled his lips and didn't say anything about cheapness. Instead, he picked up a piece of the candy box handed over by Zhang Xiao.

Prepare to criticize Mrs. Weasley's craftsmanship and show off how delicious her mother's candies are.

It's just that Malfoy tasted it for a long time and saw that the candy box was almost empty, but he couldn't say anything useful.

He could only turn around and start counting his gifts.

Zhang Xiaozao has been doing this for a long time. Thanks to several limelights this semester, especially his duel with Professor Flitwick in the Duel Club, his popularity has reached a new level.

As a result, the number of gifts further increased. Zhang Xiao counted them and reached an astonishing 322 pieces!
