Summary: The Elves' Daily Love

School started again, and Yun Ci, who was promoted to second grade, was busier than in the first grade.

Because elective courses have been added.

Yun Ci added all the subjects that interested her to her schedule, and because of the different elective courses, she was separated from her roommates who had always attended classes together.

Cedric was busy as always.

His life was no different from that in the third grade. He wandered between the classroom, library, and Quidditch training ground every day. Sometimes he was so busy that he didn't meet Yun Ci for several days.

Sometimes, they would meet in the library and study their own subjects.

But this peaceful daily life did not last long.

As Filch's cat, Mrs. Norris, was petrified, Yun Ci knew that the danger in this plot had officially begun.

Although Yun Ci knew that Cedric would not encounter such danger, she still gave him a few more warnings if he did.

"You too, Xiaoci, don't go out alone at night. Even if you're going to the bathroom, it's best to bring a friend with you."

"I will."

After a brief exchange, they separated again.

The petrification incident at Hogwarts was not resolved quickly. As several students were petrified one after another, and blood words were left at the petrification sites, several Slytherin students informed their parents about this.

Several of them, led by Malfoy, joined forces with the Ministry of Magic to put pressure on Hogwarts, so that Hogwarts was forced to suspend classes and even faced the crisis of being forced to close.

Fortunately, Harry Potter quickly resolved the matter and killed the basilisk. Dumbledore also used his own abilities and connections to successfully save Hogwarts.

All this happened before the young wizards left school.

Yun Ci, who deliberately reduced her presence, spent another ordinary semester.

Well, if there was anything new and different this semester, it was that she had successfully opened a small stall in her own wand shop - selling her homemade wands.

Of course, it’s the normal version.

After all... that kind of wand version of 'Gatling' might be a bit too advanced for the current wizarding world.

what a pity.

"Congratulations, Cedric, congratulations on becoming the captain of the Hufflepuff team." Yun Ci looked at Cedric's face and said, "But I still hope you can take good care of your body. After all, your body is your capital, isn't it?"

Cedric touched his eyes subconsciously: "Is it obvious?"

"Just a little bit."

“But you still saw it.”

"Uncle Diggory mentioned before that you always work hard."

"Since I'm the captain, I have to live up to the expectations of everyone on the team." Cedric looked at Yun Ci with concern and responded with a gentle smile, "But I'll also have a good rest, don't worry."

Yun Ci nodded and said seriously: "Sed, you are already a big kid. You need to have a plan and it is also important to get enough sleep."

Cedric was amused by her: "Okay, I will."

"By the way, do you want to go to the amusement park together this Christmas?"

"The one from the Muggle world?"

"Yes." Yun Ci nodded. "I heard some half-blood wizards talking about that before. It sounded very interesting, so I wanted to try it out. Do you want to join us?"

"Of course, I mean, together." Cedric said, "Let's make an appointment then, okay?"

"I think just one day is enough for us to have fun."

"I heard there will be a lot of people during the holidays..."

The two walked side by side towards the dormitory while chatting.

For a long time afterwards, Cedric spent even more time playing Quidditch, and sometimes it was difficult to see him at the long dinner table.

Yunci admired his efforts.

Although she lived a fairly adequate life, she still had to miss any of the three meals a day.

That's awesome...Sed.

It was December 12th, and Yunci had her first holiday in the third grade, when she could go home. Neither the "prisoner" who escaped from Azkaban nor the Dementors hovering over Hogwarts could affect her good mood.

She packed her luggage first and waited in the Hufflepuff common room, waiting for Cedric, who had become a prefect.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"For the sake of these delicious snacks, I'll forgive your tardiness."

"Thank you very much. I guess I need to prepare a thank-you gift for the house-elves later."

“I think they’re going to love the recipes.”

"It can also satisfy our appetite, killing two birds with one stone, right?"

"As expected of Seide, he understands me."

"Let's go take a look together later." Cedric invited, "Maybe we can go to the Muggle bookstore and take a look."

"Of course, let's set it for the day after we go to the amusement park, okay?"

"Of course, I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow."

Cedric pulled Yunci onto the train, and the two chose an empty compartment to sit in.

The train started moving forward with a hum, and another beautiful scene that never gets boring.

As a holiday for receiving gifts, Yunci’s favorability towards Christmas is second only to her own New Year.

I fell asleep with great anticipation the night before, and when I opened my eyes the next day, I saw a box full of gifts, which made me very happy.

The gift Yun Ci gave to her grandfather this year was a magic wand brooch with a powerful defensive array. When she went downstairs, she saw that the brooch had appeared on her grandfather's clothes.

The grandfather and grandson spent Christmas together and had a sumptuous dinner.

Yunci also had a drink with her grandfather.

12 month 26 day.

Cedric showed up at the door of Ollivander's Wand Shop at eight in the morning.

At this time, Yun Ci was still curled up in bed and hadn't gotten up until her grandfather called her downstairs. She then quickly changed into clothes suitable for going to the playground and went downstairs.

"Good morning, Grandpa." Yun Ci walked towards the bathroom while tying her hair. "Good morning, Sayid."

"morning."

Cedric stood beside Yunci's small display window, looking at the 'magic wand' accessories on it with great interest.

Ollivander put the prepared sandwiches on the counter, "Ced, come and have some sandwiches."

"Thank you, but I've already had breakfast, so you can just use it."

Cedric picked up a small magic wand necklace and observed it. For some reason, he had a vague feeling that this one was not as good as his.

Obviously his was the first one made.

Generally speaking, isn't it true that the more you do, the better?

Why does she do it the opposite way? The first time she makes the best product.

“——That’s amazing.”

"what?"

"This is all Xiaoci's own thinking."

Ollivander looked a bit proud, and that expression reminded Cedric of his father.

This was the same expression his father had when he wanted to praise him to others.

but--

Yunci is worth it.

Cedric nodded solemnly.

"Xiaoci is really amazing—"
