Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

After a few days, the six people moved into Aunt An's house and settled down, and finally went to a high-end stationery store as they wished.

This was a slightly expensive store we had researched before.

Although the prices were high, there were a lot of items we could afford, and we were able to purchase enough for six people.

Bill and Charlie were also wearing Muggle-style clothing, but they were dressed appropriately so as not to stand out.

Bill and Charlie were on either side, holding my hands.

"You two are both so tall."

"Ronald... seems to have grown a little taller..."

Careful Charlie smiled and Bill tilted his head.

"Hmm? Really? It's only grown a little bit."

I replied worriedly, "It's only grown a little bit, but the nutrition is not very good this year, right? But even so, Fred and George are still growing very fast, and even Percy has grown a lot taller. Why is this happening?"

"Maybe it's time for him to grow up? Or maybe you're just worrying too much, Ronald." Charlie consoled with a smile.

Bill also said:

"Yeah, you might not be as relaxed as Fred and George, but it would be nice to take some of the pressure off your shoulders."

"Did I make you worry too much?"

Percy turned around, sandwiched between Fred and George.

"Well, maybe...but I decided to go back to my childhood!" Bill ruffled my hair with a wicked smile.

““So be it! Do as you say!””

As announced, my brothers began to pamper me.

By the way, today's escort is Mr. Edgar's father.

Mr. Edgar has already started his summer job and is said to have received many business requests from old clients.

"I think so too. You should learn to rely on others a little more and stop being so polite all the time."

"Okay...I will."

We chatted until we arrived at the store.

"Uh, is it really okay for such an expensive store?"

““It’s okay! Don’t worry, Charlie.””

"Yeah, we're doing some antique business here now and making some money."

I patted my bulging wallet, and the twins said confidently:

"I'm not just pretending, I'm a serious businessman now!"

"Ronald has a very unique vision, and of course we have helped too."

We opened the door of the high-end-looking store and the brothers went in together.

Bill and Charlie had never been to such a high-end store, so they were a little stunned.

““Bill, Charlie! This way!””

Fred and George, unflinchingly, greeted them.

The clerk has already taken out several items that we like.

“Isn’t it great?”

"Gold and red are the colors of Gryffindor. Although we don't know which house we will be sorted into, red can also be understood as the color of Weasley. I think it suits us red-haired people very well."

““And they can carve their names on it!””

"So, I thought we could do a brother version."

Bill and Charlie picked up the merchandise and examined it carefully.

"Wow, so beautiful."

"I prefer this red, but Bill, that color suits you better, right?"

“We love this. ”

"Ronald and I like this better."

In the end even Percy took the initiative to speak.

Everyone discussed and decided which one to buy.

Finally, it was the sharp-eyed Charlie who spotted a product on another shelf that we hadn’t noticed, and everyone decided to buy that.

Although it was slightly over budget, it was still within our budget, so we all agreed to this option.

We asked for our names to be engraved, paid for six, and would pick them up later.

Since choosing the pen alone took a lot of time, we agreed to look at the inks next time we come to pick them up.

I also plan to learn in detail from the store clerk how to use these stationery.

After coming out of the stationery store, I remembered what Mr. Edgar had told me before he left. He had ordered a cake from an affordable cake shop and asked us to bring it back when we returned.

Although we often let him treat us, I still asked Mr. Travis if this was really okay. Mr. Travis just smiled bitterly.

"He is the kind of person who will spend money when he has it, but don't look at him like that, he has a high income, much more than me, but since he announced that he would invest in the future of the twins, he has stopped spending money recklessly, so you don't have to worry."

"If he hadn't met you guys, he definitely wouldn't have thought about saving money. I'm grateful just because he stopped spending money recklessly. Don't mind it."

It's amazing that he earns more than his father at such a young age.

"But we did buy a lot of stuff in Diagon Alley."

Percy said and Bill responded.

"is it?"

""Yes!""

"We went to some shops that had quietly taken care of us, thanked them, and bought some goods, all with Mr. Edgar's money."

"Then we'll have to express our gratitude to him later." Bill made a mental note.

Mr. Travis said, "It's okay, Bill. Edgar has a lot of work to do next, so he may not be able to get away all summer. But after the summer is over, you two won't be around, right?"

Bill said, "I would rather thank you in person, but there will always be a chance to meet in the future... Could you please convey my thanks?"

"Okay," Mr. Travis replied.

"That's right! We are all a family now! Even if not now, we will definitely meet again in the future!"

I gratefully accepted the cake and asked them to take me to Aunt An's house.

After returning home, I prepared black tea and cut the cake.

It’s delicious, that person knows a lot.

Bill asked as I savored the delicious cake.

"By the way, those pens cost a lot of money. Did you make so much money in such a short time?"

"It's been a good profit so far, right? But I've basically spent it all."

"Those ancient laces are incredibly expensive, especially those handmade with extremely fine threads. I originally thought that I could buy the threads at a low price, recreate them with magic, and then pretend that they were unused and sell them. But it seems that no one can make such extremely fine threads now, so I have been looking carefully."

Fred also lamented:

"Yeah, especially if it's handmade, not machine knitted."

“Even the clothes, those with delicate lace are very popular.”

"Silk in particular is easily damaged, so it is better preserved in the wizarding world."

“Wool can also get moth-eaten.”

"Using magic, they can be made quite clean, which is very important."

George nodded.

"I have become a complete connoisseur now!"

"You can buy cheap stuff in Diagon Alley, and since it's not enchanted, no one will notice it."

I asked, "This time, I was invited to attend the summer antique fair directly. Bill, you can come too."

"If you come, you will definitely attract a lot of customers. When those strong wives try to bargain like crazy, you just respond with a smile and sell the items at a high price."

"Okay, that's no problem, but I don't really understand this." Bill smiled awkwardly.

""It doesn't matter!""

"Yeah! With you here, it's like we have a hundred times the power!"

"What about me?" Charlie pointed at himself.

"Of course, Charlie, you too! You can also make a difference in our family business!"

Fred looked at him with starry eyes.

"Because magic cannot be used in the Muggle market, we need you to help set up the venue and move the goods. You also have to move things like tents and folding tables. The car will be arranged by Mr. Edgar, and someone with a driver's license will accompany us!"

"Ah, so I'm responsible for this kind of work...Okay, no problem."

Percy couldn't help but laugh when he saw Charlie like this.

"Ah, I forgot to pick up some cartons from the supermarket on my way back!"

Suddenly, George slapped his head.

"Yeah, we can't use magic. If a bunch of stuff suddenly pops out of a box, it will definitely arouse suspicion."

Fred was also in a dilemma.

I said casually, "Put the box in the box, and then secretly take it out in the car, isn't that enough?"

"Yes, this is a good idea! With Charlie's help, even heavy wooden boxes can be lifted."

"You guys are determined to make me a porter!"

The brothers laughed together and Charlie gave the twins a big hug.

Later, Fred and George also report finding goodies with protective charms, and as a result, Bill and Charlie become interested in purchasing items as well.

So they promised to accompany me to look for treasures in the summer.

Beautiful memories are accumulating little by little in the hearts of us brothers.
