HP Princess bravely enters Hogwarts
Chapter 33 Recognition from the Former Patriarch
The summer heat wave is like an unstoppable force
In the Malfoy family's mansion, Lucius Malfoy had already planned an important change in his mind.
He knew it was time for his daughter, Cygnus, to try out this great family legacy.
After all, his beloved son Draco was still obsessed with bickering and passionate Quidditch games and had no interest in the family business.
On a lazy afternoon, Lucius led Cygnus into the study full of historical atmosphere.
Portraits of successive Malfoy family heads hung in the room. They seemed to be whispering and casting critical glances at Cygnus.
And she stood there firmly, facing those questioning voices.
"Listen, Lucius, Cygnus is just a girl." Nicholas Malfoy's portrait shook his head, scoffing at the idea of a girl inheriting the family headship.
The portrait of Septimus Malfoy responded calmly: "I think Lucius made a very far-sighted move.
As long as the glory of the Malfoy family continues, I don't mind whether the head of the family is a man or a woman."
"Come here, Segnus, let me take a good look at you." Abraxas' eyes were full of eagerness, eager to take a closer look at his granddaughter.
Lucius gave her a gentle push, and Cygnus gracefully lifted her skirt, took a step forward, and bowed to her grandfather's portrait. Her gesture was admirable.
"Very good, Segnus, I see the ambition in your eyes. You really are the most like me." Abraxas glanced at Lucius with a hint of teasing, "To be honest, Lucius doesn't look like me at all. I even doubt whether he is my biological son."
"Father..." Lucius smiled helplessly.
On the other hand, Segnus smiled obediently, his eyes sparkling with admiration for his grandfather.
In the long history of the Malfoy family, each generation has passed it down like a steady stream.
The birth of Cygnus, especially as the only girl in the family, made Lucius treat her like the apple of his eye and dote on her.
People often say that a daughter is a father’s little cotton-padded jacket, warming his heart.
I remember that on that sunny afternoon, the toddler Cygnus used her chubby little hands to hand a cookie to Lucius' mouth. At that moment, he seemed to own the whole world.
Even if Cygnus wanted the stars in the sky, he would be willing to pick them for her.
In contrast, the two-year-old Draco next to him had a tense face and asked Cygnus to hand over the biscuits with a proud look on his face. He looked just like a little Lucius.
This made Lucius suddenly realize that sometimes he did seem a little... not so cute.
Segnus showed extraordinary intelligence from an early age. Not only did she learn to talk and walk earlier than her brother, but at the age of five, her magical talent amazed everyone.
By chance, she learned to cast the Levitation Charm and the Silencing Charm with a children's wand just by listening to the sound of Lucius chanting.
The reason why Lucius frequently used the silencing spell at home was because little Draco always cried endlessly and could not get any peace all day long.
In order to fully develop Segnus's potential, Lucius decided to train her as early as possible.
After introducing her to all the heads of the Malfoy family, Lucius dug out all the account books of the past few years, intending to let Cygnus learn how to manage the family business.
The heavy account books were carried out one by one. Segnus stood beside the pile of account books that was taller than her, watching her father's busy back.
Suddenly, a black notebook slipped down. Lucius picked it up quickly with quick hands and eyes and stuffed it into the most hidden corner of the bookshelf.
A cold light flashed in Segnus' eyes. She was sure that she was not mistaken. The notebook seemed to be surrounded by wisps of black air.
——It’s exactly the same as the scar on Harry’s head
"Let me show you these first. With your intelligence, these should be easy to handle, Segnus." Lucius said to himself.
The afternoon sun shone obliquely into the study, and Draco was playing with the white peacock in the garden.
Segnus withdrew his gaze from his brother, took the book from Lucius, and said softly:
"Don't worry, father. I will study hard and won't let you down."
While other children were playing coquettishly in their parents' arms, Segnus had buried herself deeply in the piles of bills.
In her previous life, she was the high and mighty eldest princess, and all the affairs of the country, big or small, had to go through her hands.
She downplayed the situation and said that handling a family's affairs was a piece of cake for her.
The Malfoy family, an ancient family with a history of more than 900 years, their wealth is far beyond the reach of ordinary wealthy people.
One only needs to look through their account books in recent years to clearly see how wealthy this family is.
In the UK, half of the industries in the Muggle world are controlled by the Malfoy family, including jewelry, clothing, cosmetics, and even oil, chemicals, arms and other industries.
The Malfoy family also received the honor of the title, which is enough to prove that the Malfoy family not only has a prominent status in the wizarding world, but also has a very high status even in the Muggle world.
Young Segnus quickly flipped through the account book in his hand and accurately found the loophole in it.
She looked at Lucius who was sitting opposite her, a confident smile on her face.
"Father, the jewelry company's sales in October were 4900 million pounds, but the data showed that we sold a total of pieces of jewelry that month.
These included the Peregrina pearl necklace, the powder blue enamel moon bottle, the Patek Philippe pocket watch and many other treasures. She paused, looked at Lucius, and continued,
"In my opinion, the sales in October are definitely more than 49 million pounds. Perhaps we should take a closer look at whether there is any problem with the company's finances."
Lucius has never been good at handling work matters, and the thing that he is most adept at is how to please Narcissa.
Faced with the extraordinary business talent shown by Segnus, he decided to train her well and let her take over the position of head of the family as soon as possible.
"Signus, I think you have grown up and can help Dad share some of the pressure.
Therefore, from now on, all the account book matters will be handed over to you." Lucius' eyes were shining with expectation for his daughter, and of course, the joy of retiring soon.
"Father, don't you think I'm too young? I'm only 11 years old." Although she enjoyed the feeling of holding power, she didn't want to sacrifice her childhood so early in both lives.
However, Lucius had a different idea. He thought that since the daughter of the Greengrass family could become the head of the family, his own daughter was better and more qualified to be the head of the family.
Well, actually he was just looking for an excuse for being lazy. Only in this way could he spend more time with his beloved Narcissa.
"Signus, my dear daughter, you will not stop in this small world. I understand you more deeply than you think." Lucius took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and his voice flowed out slowly, as if whispering a gentle prophecy.
Do you really understand her, or have you never seen her clearly?
Cygnus smiled, his eyes full of the tall figure of his father.
"Father, since you want me to help you lighten your burden, I will respectfully obey your command."
"Signus, you know, the glory of this family is not just because of wealth and status." Lucius turned to look at his daughter and his tone became serious.
"More importantly, we must have the determination and courage to protect this glory."
Segnus nodded seriously, she knew that her father's words meant responsibility and mission.
"Father, I will remember your words. I will do my best for the glory of the Malfoy family."
Lucius smiled slightly, with a soft light flashing in his eyes.
"Family is above all else, Cygnus, remember that. In our Malfoy family, wealth, status, and glory are not as important as the affection between us." He patted his daughter's hand gently, his action full of love.
He is willing to sacrifice everything for his family.
Seignus gradually showed her talent in the horse business, but privately, she had her own secrets - she had founded an organization called the Rose Cross long before.
This organization is a tool for her to achieve her ambitions, and no one knows this secret except her closest friend Hermione.
Segnus sat in his study, playing with a rose-shaped badge, the symbol of the Rosicrucian Order.
There was a gleam in her eyes, and she thought to herself, "It's time for the Rose Cross and the Malfoy family to cooperate in business."
She immediately picked up her quill and wrote a letter to Hermione, inviting her to discuss the plan together.
In the letter, she described her plans in detail and why she felt this was a great opportunity.
Hermione happily accepted the invitation
In the evening, Hermione arrived at the Malfoy's house as promised, and the two had an in-depth discussion in Sensenas' private study.
"Signus, your plan is really great! I believe that as long as we work together, the Rose Cross Order will shine in the wizarding world." Hermione's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Cygnus smiled and nodded: "Hermione, I know you have always had your own ideals and pursuits.
The Rosicrucian Order can not only achieve my goals, but also help you achieve your dreams.”
Hermione's eyes drooped slightly. How should I put it? Her ideals and pursuits
Sernas
No one is more suitable to stand beside Cygnus than her.
