Chinese students at Hogwarts.

Hogsmeade is the must-stop point on the way to Hogwarts, which is located next to the large lake that originates from the village;

The Hogwarts Express also ends in the village, where students start their new school year.

Zhang Xiao knew all this, but he was still very surprised to see Neville here.

"Neville!"

Neville had already trotted over and held Zhang Xiao's arms excitedly. His round face turned red and he wanted to say something but couldn't.

After taking a closer look at Neville, he saw that he had lost some weight, but was taller and stronger. Of course, the biggest change was his eyes.

Originally, Neville gave people the impression of being sluggish and confused, always seeming to be two beats too slow, but now Neville's eyes appear bright and agile.

It seems that after the lost souls of his parents returned, Neville finally lost his burden and returned to his original self.

"Neville, are Aunt Alice and Uncle Frank okay?"

Zhang Xiao patted his shoulder and had to calm down the guy first.

Speaking of his parents, Neville, who was already happy, immediately grinned and nodded vigorously:

"Well, okay, over there!"

Following the direction he pointed, he saw a gray-haired couple standing under the big tree in the small square, smiling at him.

It was Alice and Frank, and beside them, Neville's grandmother was actually wearing very normal clothes, without the big taxidermy hat, the big handbag and the fox scarf.

Like a kind old lady.

It only took a little effort for Zhang Xiao to realize that Mrs. Augusta originally did this more to attract people's attention. This old lady had always been worried that others would forget her children, Frank and Alice. .

Now that Frank and Alice have recovered, they certainly don't have to be so unconventional.

"Zhang, come with me, my parents and grandma have always wanted to thank you in person!"

Neville couldn't help but pulled Zhang Xiao towards the big tree.

When the two came to the tree, before Zhang Xiao could say hello, Alice had already walked over and gave him a big hug. Then Zhang Xiao heard Alice's nasal and grateful voice:

"Thank you kid, thank you for everything you have done for Neville, thank you!"

Zhang Xiao paused and said softly

"Ma'am, Neville is my friend."

After letting go, Frank walked up again and stretched out his hand:

“Zhang, I don’t know how to express my gratitude, I can accept death, but I can’t let Neville carry such a burden all the time.

This is more painful than killing me and torturing me. Fortunately, there are people who help Neville and help us get rid of this pain.

Thanks! "

Sometimes men don't say too many fancy thanks, but this is the most sincere thanks from a father.

Zhang Xiao can feel and understand Frank's mood at this moment, because he was also a father.

So he held Frank's hand very manly, squeezed it hard, but said nothing.

"Okay, thank you later -"

Neville's grandmother Augusta said majestically, and then she showed a very gentle smile to Zhang Xiao:

"Zhang, this is not the place to talk. Can you please go to the Three Broomsticks bar to sit down?

Although Ms. Rosmerta’s terrace on the third floor is rarely open to the public, I happened to be one of the guests who could go to the terrace.

The scenery there is nice, you can see the waterwheel on the river and the entire Hogsmeade. "

Three Broomsticks Bar also has a third floor? And a terrace?

Uh, okay, I've never been to Three Broomsticks.

"Of course, Mrs. Augusta."

The three brooms were very close, less than fifty meters away. When they arrived, the bar owner, Ms. Rosmerta, wiped her hands on her apron and hurried over to greet them.

He asked with a pleasant smile:

"Ms. Augusta, you haven't been here for a long time. What brought you here?"

She is a woman with a graceful figure and is very beautiful. She still looks charming. When her big eyes look at you, there is a feeling of affection.

At this moment, these beautiful eyes were curiously looking at Mrs. Augusta's outfit that looked 'abnormal' because it was normal.

Then she saw Alice and Frank next to Augusta, and she was stunned. She covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.

"Love Alice? Frank?"

The couple smiled at the landlady: "Long time no see, Rosmerta."

"Aren't you - oh, sorry, I -" Rosmerta explained in a panic, but the more she spoke, the more confused she became. The matter between Alice and Frank was a big deal at the time. It was the first major case after Voldemort's fall. .

Two elite Aurors were tortured into fools by Death Eaters, which directly caused the original ministerial candidate Barty Crouch to lose the chance to become Minister of Magic.

"Yes, Frank and Alice have recovered. Romestadt, is anyone using the terrace on the third floor?"

Mrs. Augusta replied with a smile.

"Uh, great, congratulations - the terrace on the third floor? Of course it's empty, please -"

Rosmerta tugged her hair around her ears and immediately turned around to lead the way. When they arrived on the third floor, Zhang Xiao found that there was no balcony here, just a small attic with debris piled in one corner.

The graceful landlady pushed open a wall, and the sunlight suddenly filtered in from the outside. There was indeed a terrace.

Rosmerta bowed slightly and extended her hand to signal:

"Welcome to the Three Broomsticks."

After actually sitting here, Zhang Xiao realized that what Mrs. Augusta said was not an exaggeration at all. The view here is wide, and the woodland in the distance, the waterwheel on the river, and the bustling crowds constitute a beautiful rural scenery.

"It's beautiful here, Zhang."

Everyone gathered around the old wooden table, which was covered with butter beer and snacks just delivered by the landlady.

Seeing Zhang Xiao looking at the surroundings comfortably, Mrs. Augusta asked with a smile.

"Yes, it is indeed beautiful here, but why is Mrs. Rosmerta unwilling to open this location?"

"Perhaps it's because it's inconvenient to refill glasses and serve food? Do you find it troublesome?" Neville said in a low voice.

Zhang Xiao was stunned. When he saw the smile on Mrs. Augusta's face, he knew that Neville was right.

Yes, Butterbeer tastes good but it doesn’t take long to drink. It is smooth in the mouth and can be finished quickly. If you chat here, you can refill it more than a dozen times in an afternoon without any problem, plus snacks and other things.

Romestad had to run at least 15 times. Although she had magic, the landlady's magic ability was obviously inversely proportional to her beauty, otherwise she would not have been easily controlled by Malfoy in the original work.

Soon, Zhang Xiao looked at Neville in amazement and felt happy for him from the bottom of his heart:

"Neville, have you gotten rid of that state? Tell me, what's different?"
