After Harry began living in the house, the Weasley brothers, with whom he apparently had a very good relationship, also came to visit frequently.

One day, when everyone was taking a break and drinking tea, Ron suddenly said in astonishment:

"It seems like someone is calling me! I have to go!"

After that, he immediately stood up and walked towards a room whose contents I could hardly remember. Of course, he also specifically asked me if I could enter the room.

And there were always dark magic items in the room that I didn't know about.

He didn't dare to touch it directly, but always asked me to take it out for him. Many of these things were not handled by other families, so they were entrusted to the Black family for safekeeping.

I never go near the rooms where the Black family keeps dark magic items. I asked Ron why he was not interested in those things, and he replied: "I know how dangerous those things are, and I can't control them. And they are well managed, so they won't mess up. At least, I can tell whether those things are in the right place and kept properly by the right people."

I was about to ask, 'How can they be so honest?' but I stopped myself. Afterwards, the Weasley brothers worked together to analyze the items they had found. Percy was very sensitive to magic and could accurately deduce the family to which the items belonged. Most of the items had detailed records explaining how they were brought here, so they could be found out easily. If there were no records, it would all depend on Percy's intuition.

The first item I encountered was from a struggle for inheritance within a family. Looking back, it was a "cute little thing". The second son in the family was an outstanding magician and was chosen as the heir. But the eldest son could not accept it and secretly created a magical instrument to curse his younger brother, but he was unable to control it, resulting in the death of the eldest son, his wife, and young children. The eldest son's son, who returned from Hogwarts on holiday, discovered something unusual and hurriedly asked for help from his uncle who was the heir. Since his uncle was the object of the curse, the head of the family took back the magical instrument, but he could not deal with it, and finally sent it to the Black family for safekeeping.

When we found the target family and asked them, they admitted that this had indeed happened several generations ago. Bill said, "We can lift this curse. The original artifact is still there, and the curse has been weakened and can be dealt with. I suggest you lift the curse, after all, it is related to the peace of the family. From our observation, the heir is the target of the curse. Although the curse is weak, it is still continuing. Due to the safekeeping of the Black family, it has not caused a strong impact. However, is the heir prone to being weak or easily injured?"

After hearing this, the other party immediately thought of something and immediately asked for the curse to be lifted. Fortunately, Bill happened to be home visiting his relatives at that time.

This happened more than once. Bill was still in the learning stage, and he often said with a smile that if he could borrow the family's collection of books, they would help to lift the curse for free. Some families who were willing to pay invited them to go, and those families who had no money were naturally grateful.

Not only the twins, but all the Weasley brothers are good at memorizing. They developed this habit when they were young with their parents. Because they couldn't afford to buy books, they often went to the bookstore to memorize the whole book and wrote it down after returning home. Ron said that he had no interest in books and research, but his memory was not bad. It's really not easy to be poor.

It is said that before being taken away by their parents, they didn't even have paper and pen, and it was difficult to write to Bill. I really feel that I am so lucky. Although I don't agree with my parents' ideas, I have never been so poor that I have difficulty writing letters. Not to mention that they memorized the entire book in the bookstore because they couldn't afford to buy books, and then went home to make their own books. I have seen their homemade books, and they turned out to be a complete professional book, which is really shocking. Did they really memorize it in the bookstore? Wow... It's amazing.

The Weasley brothers are also good at analyzing the objects they find, and sometimes inventing new things based on them. When they have a new invention, they always communicate with the relevant family in advance, and if the other party does not want it to be made public, they will not make it public. Even so, they sometimes discuss whether these inventions can be used internally if a research institute is established in the future.

They have established trust with the major families, and the Weasley brothers will not maliciously use the magic knowledge they have learned. If there are new inventions, they will first seek the consent of the family, and sometimes even conduct joint research. In this way, the children and young people of the family have also begun to be encouraged to study and research hard.

As time went on, the Weasley brothers' services became more and more popular with pure-blood noble families. Not only did they help organize the book collections, but they could also make inferences based on the family's magical tendencies and even discover ancient books that had not been noticed before.

Percy is good at tracking clues of magic, Ron is good at inferring new discoveries based on these clues, and the twins are good at analyzing and inventing new things. Charlie uses his extraordinary strength to open rooms or boxes that are tightly sealed by magic. Can his power really break the seal? When I first heard about it, I was also skeptical, but if these places have been unattended for a long time and there are loopholes, it is indeed possible.

Bill was responsible for judging whether Charlie could break the seal with brute force, looking for traces of the spell and removing it when necessary. Every time they found something new, the brothers would analyze it together.

The brothers shared roles and collected various things from famous families all over the place. Now almost every family is vying to invite them. Moreover, because they are curious first, they will not ask for a large sum of money, and may even say something like "It's too interesting, no money."

I seemed to see the essence of the Weasley family, which is that although it is a famous family, it has little money.

Some families even restored lost magic. Bill and the twins also participated in the sorting and analysis of books excavated from these families, and gradually accumulated rich achievements. They also found new traces of curses and received new commissions... What a master of business. I heard that since they were adopted by the Weasley family, they have almost never accepted pocket money because they felt that accepting money would be unfair to the Weasley family's care. Even so, they are now rich. Although they don't charge a large fee, they eventually made a lot of money from various famous families by breaking curses, inventing various things, and conducting research with others. In fact, they will not accept monetary rewards, but when the Weasley brothers patronize those shops run by famous families, the shopkeepers will pay for them. This is really admirable... I am indeed a little spoiled.

However, they generously said that if the Institute of Advanced Magic is built in the future, they are willing to donate all their books to the institute. This helped me a lot, and they have also obtained the permission of the pure-blood nobles who provided the books.

By the way, if Bill wasn't here, I would be the one to deal with these things. I once convened both parties - the Cursed Family and the Cursed Family, and successfully reconciled them. At first, the Cursed Family was furious, but they also found a lot of cursed items from their homes, and finally both sides realized that they were equally matched. Later, the Weasley children found the diary recording the cause of the dispute in the library of both parties, and found that the cause was actually extremely boring. Both sides felt lost because of the ridiculous reason, and even their legs went weak and collapsed to the ground.

The Weasley children told them that they could curse each other, but they couldn't just blame the Black family. The children also criticized them for analyzing the disadvantages of these cursed items and improving their magic level instead of using curses indiscriminately. They also emphasized that if families want to curse each other, at least they can't cause trouble to other families. Then, they reprimanded these families, saying that they should learn more about how to remove curses and not use them easily before they understand them clearly.

Shouldn't they be blamed for using black magic?

As a result, they were asked to find more cursed books, read them all and submit a report. If they said they couldn't understand, they were asked to start over from the language learning; if they could read but didn't understand, they were forced to start from the beginner's book until they cried and studied hard. In the process of learning, they actually reconciled.

Finally, a reconciliation signing ceremony was held at the Black family... But I was too tired. It turns out that mediating disputes is so difficult... I now realize how hard it was for Regulus when my mother and I quarreled in the past. I really wasn't a good brother.

Although the two families cried and begged me for help, the Weasley children showed no mercy... I could only persuade them to study hard. Because the two families had too many cursed items at home, they had to study hard to deal with them. They could either ask the Black family and experts for help, but their proud noble blood forced them to do it themselves. In the end, they worked hard with me to study, not only did they completely reconcile, but now they have become reliable research partners. In the end, the academic level of the two families improved significantly, and even established a joint venture company, and everything developed smoothly.

In the end, everything worked out very well, and that was the problem. Everyone was very grateful to the Weasley children... so I couldn't blame them at all. After all, the suspicious magical objects in the house disappeared, and these families successfully restored order, which was a great contribution to the entire wizarding world. But at the same time, my mediation work became more difficult... and mentally exhausting.

……

This always happened when Ron came to see me when I was home, but he never mentioned it when I was away.

"Why do you only talk about these troublesome things when I am here?"

"Because you are the head of the family. No one in the Black family can give permission except you. Moreover, it is absolutely not allowed to enter the house without permission. This is also for the future wife and children of Sirius! Even if there are dangerous items, we can rest assured if Sirius is here!"

They have an inexplicable trust in me... I'm happy, really, but to be honest, I'm a little overwhelmed. Ron is obviously not afraid of me, but every time he sees me, he always says something unexpected, which makes me feel confused. When I complained about this to Harry, he smiled and looked at me with a child's eyes and said, "Sirius, you've grown up a little bit?"

When I pressed what he meant, Harry explained, "Maybe Madam Walburga felt the same way about you? Ron said that a true lady wouldn't raise a rogue. She probably didn't know how to treat you, but because you were her child, she had to try to discipline you in the end. Maybe she had never met a child like you, so she was at a loss, but she didn't give up and kept scolding you. I don't think she was a bad mother."

I suddenly thought, maybe my mother had similar feelings? Ron had said something similar before. I was disgusted with my mother, but Ron knew that I was a little uncomfortable with him, but he found it interesting and kept approaching me, which confused me.

He even said that I didn't need to be a mind reader to understand him.

I should have noticed it but I was always a step behind, which Ron obviously did on purpose… but he didn't do anything wrong, so I couldn't blame him. Even if I acted indifferent, he would still look at me like a "bad kid" and then make light of everything. This made me feel more like a terrible adult and I didn't know what to do… and some of the advice he gave me really helped me, so I couldn't blame him either.

After being adopted by the Weasleys, Harry, who was originally shorter than his peers, gradually grew up, but Ron, although he ate a lot, was still small. So compared to Harry, he looked more immature. Whenever that little figure said to me with shining eyes, "Please, Sirius, please", I really couldn't refuse... He knew this and did it on purpose. Harry also often said, "Sirius, help him", and I could only ask the Weasley family for help, but they said, "He doesn't rely on us much, so just let him rely on you a little."

After hearing what they said, I felt helpless.
