[HP] Aunt of the Savior

What happened in the hallway after Transfiguration could not be kept a secret, so soon, those who wanted to know got the news naturally.

"So, this is the whole process of our lovely Miss Potter hooking up with that Gryffindor mudblood?" Lucius Malfoy sat in the common room with his usual hypocritical smile on his face. Reading the "Daily Prophet" in his hand in his usual armchair, he was completely indifferent to the news.

Narcissa, who told Lucius everything, frowned and looked at her fiancé worriedly: "Lucius, is it really all right?"

"Narcisha, what are you worried about?" Lucius put away the newspaper and looked at Narcissa, with affection in his eyes, he gently grabbed her hand and put it on his lips and kissed, "Miss Potter is only a third year freshman. First graders today, we can't be too impatient. Please, don't be so impatient like Bella."

"I'm not like her, I'm just..." Narcissa blushed and muttered.

"Of course you can't be like her, and I know you're just worried about me." Lucius pulled Narcissa into his arms and let her sit on his lap, "But I can assure you, as impatient as Bella, Sooner or later, things will go wrong. We can't be as restless as those Gryffindor lions. Since Miss Potter is a Slytherin, we have to believe that she must have all the qualities of a Slytherin-I don't think you Will ignore her little revenge on that half-breed Snape before. Having her in our house has made the plan a lot easier, and I am very satisfied. Even if she would rather condescend and hand over some half-blood or mudblood Friends, we shouldn't interfere too much now."

He leaned close to Narcissa's ear, as if he wanted to kiss her cheek, and said softly, "Don't forget, Professor McGonagall actually invited Miss Potter to afternoon tea this afternoon. Our time has not yet come."

"I see." Narcissa frowned and fell into Lucius' arms.From the moment they got engaged, no, maybe even earlier, she had absolutely trusted every decision he made, every word he said.

Jody and Doris, who had just walked out of the dormitory, happened to see this scene.Seeing that Lucius and Narcissa seemed to be making out, the two girls instinctively avoided their eyes and rushed out of the common room.Lucius, who witnessed this scene over Narcissa's shoulder, couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth.It's just a little girl!

"Senior Black is so lucky." Out of the common room, Doris couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "Senior Malfoy is so handsome, rich, and noble... They are truly worthy, aren't they? I heard that they have known each other since childhood, and they finally got engaged last Christmas. I even attended their engagement ceremony!"

The corner of Jody's mouth couldn't help twitching.Although she admitted that Lucius Malfoy looked pretty good on the outside, the praise Doris piled up with all kinds of rhetoric still made her feel chills.Fortunately, she was going to an appointment with Professor McGonagall in the afternoon, so she didn't have to continue to listen to Doris' longing and praise for Malfoy.

Professor McGonagall's office is on the second floor, not far from the Transfiguration classroom.Although Professor McGonagall's note gave the secret order to open the door, when Jody walked to the door, he knocked first.Professor McGonagall seemed to have expected her to do this, and allowed her to come in with a smile.

Jody looked at Professor McGonagall's office as far as possible without being rude: it was a spacious and warm office, with a Scottish tapestry hanging on the wall, and a short table with books and some knick-knacks next to it. A large desk filled with stacks of parchment is next to the window, and the rug and sofa are matched with maroon and brown-gold checks, making this room very Gryffindor-like. In addition, it is much softer, with a bit of Scottish style.The fire in the fireplace is jumping cheerfully, and the tea table in front of the fireplace is placed with black tea and an exquisite three-layer pull-up disk with standard afternoon refreshments.

Professor McGonagall sat on a sofa by the fireplace, pointing to the vacant seat opposite: "Come and sit, Jody."

"Miss McGonagall." Hearing Professor McGonagall calling her name directly, Jody did not call her Professor.

"Are you still used to life at Hogwarts?" Professor McGonagall's serious and rigid sense of oppression was gone when she faced the students. The elders are the same. "It's a pity that Pomona still has classes in the afternoon, so she can't come and have afternoon tea with us. As for Poppy, her sense of responsibility can't make her leave her post when she's in school."

Pomona was Professor Sprout's name, she was also an acquaintance of the twins, and Jody had just gone to her herbal class in the conservatory yesterday.Professor Sprout once gave the twins some interesting plants on their birthday and Christmas, but it was only in class that Jody discovered that Professor Sprout's love for plants far exceeded what she had known before.She could spend almost all day in the conservatory in her patched work coat without getting bored.As for the school doctor, Poppy—Madame Pomfrey, Jody hasn’t seen her since the entrance dinner. Of course, this is actually a good thing. No one wants to report to the school hospital after three days of enrollment. .

"Hogwarts is really great, and the courses are very attractive." Jody lowered his head slightly. "However, I regret that I didn't make it to Gryffindor like James did."

Professor McGonagall is a very fair person, which can be seen from her unceremonious criticism of the twins yesterday.She wasn't particularly partial to the students of her own house, but that kind of integrity was something Jody wanted so much these days—after the bad reviews she got for that hat.

This has been on Jody's mind since he entered school.She didn't have any particular likes and dislikes about which college. Almost all the wizards in the UK were cultivated by Hogwarts. No wizard would write a book to discredit other colleges and make enemies.Even her parents didn't like Slytherin very much, that was just her guess.But after getting that kind of evaluation and then entering Slytherin, Jody was extremely depressed and regretful that she failed to enter Gryffindor, especially when those Gryffindors showed some advantages or time of virtue.

"Oh, honey, I just wanted to apologize to you for this incident, so I invited you over." Seeing Jody's dejected look, Professor McGonagall stretched out his hand apologetically, and gently touched Jody's cheek. head. "I was just too surprised at the time, so there may be some misunderstandings for you."

"Huh?" Jody looked up at Professor McGonagall suspiciously.

"Indeed, as the dean of Gryffindor, I hope you can come to Gryffindor, and it's a pity that you and James didn't stay in the same college—as far as I know, it's the first time you've grown up Separate, although it looks like you're both settling in pretty well at the moment - but that doesn't mean it's bad that you went to another Hogwarts house."

Professor McGonagall's voice was gentle and firm, with a soothing power, which gradually calmed Jody, who was originally nervous.She was very grateful to Professor McGonagall for apologizing to herself for her overreaction at that time, but it was difficult for her to confess to Professor McGonagall that the reason why she started to care about being sorted into Slytherin was because she got that kind of bad review.

"Remember what I said when I welcomed the new students? Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin have all cultivated excellent wizards." Professor McGonagall poured a cup of black tea for Jody in a bone china cup Pass it to her. "Jodi, you have been a hard-working and conscientious boy since you were a child. The reason why I sigh is that I feel disappointed that my college lost a good student, but I believe that no matter which college you are in, you will be a good student."

Jody took the glass and took a sip.The aroma of black tea spreads on the tip of the tongue, the taste is not only very mellow, but also very familiar.

"This tea was given to me by your mother, so I think it's very suitable to share with you today." Professor McGonagall poured himself a cup. "If you still care so much about the sorting matter-maybe you should write to Cycia and Elvis, I think they must be looking forward to your owl. Believe me, dear, no matter which college you are in, They'll all be proud of you."

Seeing the sudden look on Jody's face when he heard these words, Professor McGonagall finally breathed a sigh of relief.These days, she has been worried about Jody.Although the child seemed to be doing well, she could tell that since being sorted into Slytherin, the child had something on his mind.What's more, there seemed to be some dispute between the twins-of course McGonagall didn't really think that the two children were gossiping at that time.

Leaving Professor McGonagall's office, Jody finally decided to write a letter to her parents right away.She originally planned to send the letter back after being sorted, but because of the blow of the sorting hat, she never knew where to write.She was afraid that she would disappoint her parents, and Professor McGonagall's words just gave her a lot of courage... Well, judging from this matter, maybe she is indeed not suitable for Gryffindor who needs courage.

Jody thought wildly and avoided everyone, hid alone in a secluded corner of the library, gathered his mood and wrote a thick letter to his parents, and then went to the owl shack to post the letter with his birthday present.

Looking at the owl flying away, Jody suddenly felt relieved.Her troubles and unhappiness deposited in her heart seemed to fly to the sky with the owl.

When she walked back to the common room, she felt that her steps were much lighter-well, this must not be because she didn't fill her stomach in time-now she had missed dinner time, but fortunately in the afternoon Professor McGonagall prepared a lot of refreshments, otherwise he would have been very hungry all night.

Jody even felt that, with his current happy mood, it would be fine to go back to the dormitory and go to bed without dinner.But Jody didn't expect that besides missing dinner, there would be other problems tonight.
