[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Chapter 269 Parenting Notes

Although Snape always thought that he didn't like the job of a teacher, when he left the castle, he still felt a sense of reluctance. He had lived here for too long, and for most of his life he had Spent in this castle.It's like another home for him, especially when Jody is still here.

However, Snape still believed that it was necessary for him to quit his job.

Dumbledore's surmise was correct, and after leaving Hogwarts, the number of times the twins' magic got out of control was greatly reduced.Although they still can't control their magic, they are not as dangerous as they were at Hogwarts.

Although touched by Snape's sacrifice for the children, Jody disagrees with Snape quitting his job alone.In fact, she thought that the couple could quit their jobs at Hogwarts together and stay at home to take care of the twins.But Snape insisted that Jody should continue to be Head of Slytherin, because "there is no one more suitable than you".

"I don't want to leave the children, they are still so young." Jody sat in the laurel cabin, staring at the two children playing games that adults didn't understand on the carpet, and said sullenly, holding his chin.

"Just a child?" Snape put his arm around his wife's shoulders, raising his eyebrows.

Jody glanced at Snape, curled his lips in mock annoyance. "I don't see how I need to worry about a man who leaves his wife alone."

The dangerous look on Snape's face when he heard this made Jody smile helplessly, "Well - I certainly don't want to leave you, Severus. In fact, I worry about each of you. Oh , I can’t imagine waiting until the new school year starts, I won’t be distracted in class.”

Even if Professor McGonagall had agreed to connect the fireplaces in the cellar office and Laurel Cottage to the Floo network so that Jody could get home from get off work on time every day, she still wasn't satisfied.She doesn't want to miss any moment of children's growth.

And Jody felt that even if she resigned like Snape, it would not affect their lives.

Before leaving Hogwarts, Snape's new job had been decided.He accepted the invitation of Draco Malfoy, who had just graduated for a year, and once again reached a cooperation agreement with the Malfoy family, entrusting the Malfoy family to sell the potion he made.After Lucius was imprisoned and the Malfoy family was under threat, Draco offered very generous terms of cooperation, unlike in the past when he obviously squeezed a lot of profits due to Snape, especially for Snape. favorable.

However, Snape prudently abandoned those cooperation terms that were obviously unfair and encroached on the interests of the Malfoy family.No matter from the perspective of long-term cooperation, or from the adverse impact that this kind of thing may bring to the reputation of the Snapes if it is exposed, it is not wise to covet such a small profit.Their income in all aspects is enough to ensure a comfortable life for a family of four, and there is no need for stupid greed.

Jody thought that she could also stay at home to do some research, write articles for some academic journals, and then use the business channels of the Malfoy family to auction some alchemy products.Moreover, the inheritance she inherited from her parents has been growing in investment, so she doesn't have to worry about making ends meet.However, Snape seemed quite adamant about letting Jody stay and work at Hogwarts, and Jody was eventually persuaded by him.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the two little ones." Snape assured his wife, "And you'll be back every day except for the night watch, won't you?"

"But I'm still a little worried..." Jody shrugged.

She believed that Snape's carefulness had no problem in taking care of the child, but Snape was not a father who could actively chat with the child.She is very worried that this will affect the future interpersonal communication and expression skills of the two children.

"Dad!" Aaron on the side seemed to be a little concerned about the discussion between Jody and Snape, he threw himself at Snape's feet, skillfully hugged his father's thigh and climbed onto Snape's lap, raised his head, Blinking those eyes that were exactly the same as Jody's at him desperately, looked at him eagerly: "I miss Pippi. Can we go back to play with Pippi in the future? Pippi always sings very interesting songs, no We, he's left with one more."

"Oh..." Agatha's personality is shy and more sensitive than Allen's. She seems to be able to clearly sense that her parents are not happy that they are too close to Pippi, so she rubbed her toes on the floor with some embarrassment and added: " I think Pippi can tell interesting stories, he's very funny and knows a lot about the castle."

The corner of Jody's mouth twitched unconsciously—well, at least she doesn't need to worry too much about Alan and Agatha's expressive abilities.As far as the expressive ability of a three-year-old is concerned, they all did well.Maybe she should thank Peeves, at least he's a nice playmate.

The Pippi in the twins' mouths is of course the Peeves they like to play with in Hogwarts the most.As long as the Bloody Barrow didn't show up, Peeves would always find a way to get close to the twins.And Barrow really didn't want to appear in front of the children often-he was too scary to frighten the two children-this created an opportunity for Peeves.

"I admit that Pippi is indeed very interesting. However, Pippi also often makes troubles and does a lot of wrong things. He is not a good boy, so he stayed in the castle and played all the time." Jody stretched out his arms and put some uneasy A Gaza hugged her into her arms, and at the same time watched Allen, who had crawled into Snape's arms, adjust his position comfortably. "In the future, if you have a chance, you can go to play with him, but if you often accompany him to play tricks, you will also be kept in the castle forever. After that, you can only play with Pippi, and you can no longer play with Dad Mom is here!"

Allen froze all of a sudden. He looked at his father and mother pitifully and worriedly, and nodded obediently. "I won't mess with Pippi."

But Agatha shyly shook her head in Jody's arms desperately. She stretched out her white and tender arms and put them around her mother's neck, "No, father and mother will never leave Agatha and mother behind." Allen's."

She sneaked a glance at her mother, and then at her peaceful father (under the strong "request" of the twin babies, Snape was very used to this peaceful expression, of course, he was still willing to use that ability for students The state of frightening and crying children.) Then, as if wanting to strengthen his confidence, he nodded vigorously and repeated: "Absolutely not."

Jody was touched by this soft, total and unadorned trust, and couldn't help but kissed his little daughter hard.Then she gave him two kisses on the cheek as well before Allen pouted.Allen immediately beamed and hugged Snape and kissed him.

After the family's happy summer vacation, Jody returned to Hogwarts alone to continue working.Except for days of rounds, though, she returns for dinner every night, spending as much time with the twins as she can.

Dad Snape has also perfectly designed a complete set of parenting plans.Although there were house-elfs to take care of the twins, he did not forget to be by the children's side during the potion brewing interval.

Although he is not good at and does not like to read those boring and useless story books to children, but he is happy to give children some magic education in advance.And appropriate questions and answers should also be enough to exercise the expression skills of the little ones.

Thus, the Snape twins' magic lessons began almost from an early age.

For example, the adventure story of the little wizard naturally expands the following content in Snape's narration: when bitten by an ordinary poisonous snake, you should take a snake venom antidote immediately, and if it is a magical snake, you should use a special antidote to detoxify. But the best way is to prepare a piece of bezoar when you go out, so that you don't need to worry about poisoning.Of course, if you haven’t prepared anything, you have to pray for your good luck, for example, a kind-hearted phoenix happens to pass by and shed a few tears on your wound.If this is the case, then no matter what kind of toxins can be purified...

"I guess neither Agatha nor Aaron will be Gryffindor in the future." Jody said amusedly and helplessly after listening to Snape's improved version of fairy tales on a certain holiday. "Otherwise I'm really worried that they'll start loathing learning before they start school."

Each of Snape's stories includes at least one common sense of magic. As for the life stories of the wizards on the chocolate frog card, Snape has planned to leave them all to Jody, who is more proficient in the history of magic.

Snape was very proud of the twins' performance. "I think you should have seen that they are very interested in how to use magic well and learn knowledge."

This time Snape didn't praise the twins too much.They may have inherited some kind of talent from their parents, or they may have seen the imitation of their parents' daily habits. Indeed, they have more patience and strong thirst for knowledge than their peers. The powerful magic power and the knowledge taught by Snape make them more and more The more consciously you use your magical abilities.After the twins turned four, Snape even allowed them to watch him brew some non-dangerous potions.

"Aaron and Agatha became too quiet after leaving Hogwarts." But Lily couldn't help scolding Snape and Jody when she saw the twins again. "You shouldn't teach them to be so quiet now, they are just children, they should be more lively! Look at Charles!"

Snape raised his eyebrows unhappily.He doesn't think it's normal for his children to be as hyperactive as the Gryffindor children - and in fact Lily just doesn't see the twins "lively" when they secretly experiment with magic at home!

"I think things will get better after they go to elementary school." But Jody accepted Lily's advice.In fact, she was also a little worried. After leaving Hogwarts, the twins obviously did not have enough contact with the outside world.

Although Snape also insisted on making sure that the children were taken into the garden every day to bask in the sun, run and dance, and even allowed them to ride children's broomsticks, but the children still lived too much. They needed playmates of the same age, not parents and friends. A house elf.Jody had already planned to wait for the twins to go to Muggle primary school after their magical powers had stabilized.

"So, we'd better buy a house that is convenient for Alan and Agatha to go to school. Lily recommended a house not far from their home. The price is very reasonable. It's not too far from the school, and the children are still there You can be in the same grade as Charles." Jody pointed to Snape with the advertisement leaflet of housing introduction. "I think it's a nice house, maybe we can take a look at it later?"

"Why do we have to send them to Muggle primary schools? And... move to those Gryffindors?" Snape frowned after a long absence. Anyway, now the twins are not going to be stern by their father It's the age to cry in fright.

Even now, as an out-and-out Slytherin, Snape doesn't have much affection for Muggles.He didn't want his children to be taught by Muggles, and even more worried that they would suffer the same monster treatment he had suffered in the past.

"Don't worry, Severus, group life is good for them." Jody seemed to see through Snape's mind, she hugged her husband from behind, watching the twins having fun in the garden, " You should believe in the children's ability, they can already control the magic very well, I believe that even at this age Voldemort will not be better than them."

"Well, Joe, I know you've always inherited some kind of arrogance from the Potter family." Jody's intentionally exaggerated words finally softened the lines on Snape's lips. "Why are you so confident in their abilities? And why do you believe that they won't encounter any harm in Muggle primary schools?"

"Oh, because the children's mother is me and the father is you."

In the autumn of 2002, the Snape twins became first graders at a primary school in England, with their cousin Charles Potter among their classmates.Alan Snape, Agatha Snape, and Charles Potter were the most popular students in the school, and what Snape had feared didn't happen until the twins graduated.
