HP's Chinese Parents

On the afternoon of August, Nick Riddle checked the list of orphanages he copied from the phone book and came to the third home he visited today—the Wall Orphanage.

"Hi ma'am." He raised his voice slightly, waking Miss Cole who was dozing off.

"Oh, hello..." Miss Cole suddenly got stuck when she saw the boy's appearance clearly.

"Do you have a four-year-old boy here? Maybe his surname is..."

"A 4-year-old boy?" Miss Cole interrupted him. She opened her eyes wide and adjusted her glasses. "I'm sorry, but I think I know who you're looking for. You two look so much alike!"

"Tom! Tom!" she yelled as she hurried away.

Nick knew he had finally come to the right place.

As a time traveler, Nick always thought that he was following the main line of World War II.He was born in a squire family in Little Hangleton, England in 1914, and had a brother named Tom Riddle who was 9 years older than him.At the beginning, he secretly complained that his elder brother's name was like a big devil, but he didn't take it seriously. Five years ago, his elder brother eloped with a homeless man's daughter. Although he was so angry that he was speechless, he didn't think of the plot of Harry Potter.It wasn't until a year later, when his elder brother came home and told his experience of the year under his parents' pressure, that he realized that he was actually walking the cannon fodder branch in Harry Potter.

"That damned evil witch!" The eldest brother cried, covering his face, "She's a devil!"

However, the father and mother did not believe what the eldest brother said, thinking that this was all an excuse he made for his obsession.Nick, who was only 12 years old at the time, patted his brother on the shoulder sympathetically, and tentatively asked what to do with the unborn nephew, and whether he should find a way to bring it back.This proposal was, of course, unanimously opposed by the whole family.

Alright alright.Nick had to change all his plans, and finally successfully applied to Imperial College at the age of 16 and persuaded his dear mother to let him go to London to study.

"Let Nick go. I believe he can take care of himself." Fortunately, the father agrees. After all, the youngest son has no inheritance rights, and it is good for everyone to let him go out and work hard.

Nick thought to himself: "I just need to secretly raise him for 7 years, and treat it as a side mission. When he goes to Hogwarts to study, I will be relieved, and I can continue my main storyline of World War II."

"It's been a long time sir, Tom Riddle, I think this is the kid you're looking for." As if afraid that Nick would run away, Miss Cole quickly brought back a thin little boy wearing ill-fitting but clean old clothes , raised his head expressionlessly, but his whole body seemed tense.

Yes, nervous, and Nick was a little nervous looking at this kid who looked exactly like his older brother.

"Hi, Tom, I'm your uncle Nick Riddle." Nick walked up to the child and knelt down, tried to smile, and patted his head.

"Are you coming to pick me up?" Tom asked slowly, having looked him over from head to toe, with a sullen little face.This guy looks a lot like him, but why didn't his parents come?He didn't dare to ask, he was going crazy thinking about leaving here.

"Of course, let's go home, since I'm all here." Then Nick touched his nose, remembering the messy little house he just bought, "Uh, but the house is a bit small."

Fearing that one more Nick would run away, Tom finally had an expression on his little face. He held Nick's hand tightly excitedly, and only changed to grab the hem of his coat when Mrs. Cole asked him to sign the document. .

After signing various documents and paying a large handling fee, Nick finally breathed a sigh of relief in Mrs. Cole's bright smile.Nick guessed that he was regarded as a fat sheep. After all, during this period of time, most people did not have enough to eat, and very few people came to the orphanage for sex.

"Now we can pack your salute."

Then Nick looked at the children in the hallway who were peeking through the open door.

"Or you could go and say goodbye to your friends."

"No luggage." Tom pulled him and looked out with bright eyes, implying that Nick wanted to leave quickly.

All right.Probably no friends either, Nick sighed secretly.

"Then we'll go buy new ones later."

Nick thanked Mrs. Cole, and pulled the future big devil out of Xinshou Village.

"We're going to make a big purchase." Standing on the stone steps covered with cracks and moss, Nick took out the second shopping list.Tom's eyes widened a little at the roll of checklists, which were at least ten inches long.It made him look a lot cuter.

"Oh, don't be surprised. I just arrived in London yesterday. I just bought a house. I don't have anything at home." Nick touched his head with a smile, raised his hand and looked at the time, "Today is too late, let's put your Buy clothes and food."

It may be affected by the Great Depression, the street was very deserted, and it took a long time to see a few pedestrians walking in a hurry. Nick took Tom to buy a bag of freshly baked round bread, two long loaves, a dozen eggs, and a box of Cream, a stick of cheese, a stick of butter.

"Maybe we can get the store to deliver it to our home." Nick, who was severely lacking in exercise, muttered while carrying two bags. He was a little envious of the wizard at this moment, he wanted the Shrinking Charm and the Levitating Charm!

"Nick, I can help!" Tom, who had only eaten half a slice of dry bread and a bowl of soup all day, started to growl. He stared at the delicious bread, saying that he would not give the food to others .

"No, no, you're too young, baby." Nick quickly refused, "Let's find a place to eat first."

"We've got milk, onions, beans, and bacon." Nick ordered a large plate of fried fish and mashed potatoes, picking out fishbone for Tom, and watched him gobble it up, after lunch. "Of course, I'll buy you some more snacks."

"You can buy clothes tomorrow, and you have a whole day tomorrow." So you can eat slowly... Nick, who was worried that Tom would choke, ordered two more glasses of watermelon juice.

==============

They finally bought some clothes, underwear, pajamas, T-shirts, and long trousers. They also went to a shoe store to buy two pairs of leather shoes.

While waiting at the bus stop, Nick felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"It feels like a dream," thought Tom, eating an ice cream cone. "I've got a young, rich, gentle uncle."

Before the sun went down, they finally reached home, the little house Nick had spoken of earlier.

"It's really not small at all!" Tom was a little surprised.This is a two-story building with a garden.

"Ah, it's fine if you like it. Actually, I wanted to buy a house with a swimming pool." Nick struggled to transfer all the bags to his left hand, and took out the key with his right hand to open the courtyard door.This is of course a small house compared to the Riddle family estate.

"There is a small garden here. We can grow whatever we want. I want to grow some fruit. You can also grow flowers if you want. I don't hate flowers."

They entered the house, changed their shoes, and stepped on the soft, plush carpet.It was completely dark, Nick turned on the small chandelier in the living room, and the room brightened up immediately.The carpet under the feet is ginger yellow, the wallpaper is white but with embossed patterns, the sofa is chubby and makes people want to jump up and down twice, there is a particularly large and clean fireplace next to the sofa, there is a whole wall of bookshelves near the stairs, in the corner There was even a black grand piano.

"Awesome!" Tom was dazzled, and the orphanage forbade them to turn on the lights at night in order to save electricity bills.

"There are 2 guest rooms on the first floor, and 4 rooms on the second floor. One of them is my bedroom, the other is the study room, and the other two are yours. There is also an attic where the sundries are stored. I haven't cleaned it out yet." As soon as Nick finished speaking, he heard heavy rain outside.

"Oh! It's a good thing we came back early!"

This is really great!Tom, who had never had his own room, threw himself into Nick's arms excitedly.

Nick chuckled and picked up the cub who would inherit all the Slytherin inheritance in the future, "Sleep with me first tonight, and we'll go shopping and decorate your bedroom tomorrow."

Dinner is actually a big problem. Although he cooked in his previous life, Nick has never even been in the kitchen in the past 16 years. He went into the kitchen to study all the kitchen utensils, and picked up a kitchen knife to find out. "The problem is not Big." He muttered, and cooked the simplest cream of onion soup.

After eating and taking a shower, Nick took Tom to roll on the bed, and the two of them bumped into each other while rolling, and then the excited little boy suddenly quieted down, and he stared at Nick, hesitant to speak.

God!Nick groaned in his heart, he couldn't hide what should come.

"Well, Tom, do you have any questions?"

"Thank you, Nick," Tom's tone slowed down again, and he asked deliberately, "Miss Cole said that my mother died when I was born, so my father...why didn't my father come to see me?"

"Well, this question is very complicated." Nick resisted the urge to look away, making himself more calm, "Your parents used to be very, very in love," although it was under the effect of a love potion...

"But one day they suddenly had a serious disagreement and had a big fight, well, I don't know what it was, but it must have been very serious. It separated them, your mother gave birth to you alone, and Your father, that is my elder brother, has been insane until now, and he is staying in the country to recuperate." At least as far as things like witches and devils are concerned, everyone already thinks that he has delusional disorder...

"I've been looking for you for a long time too," I searched for three orphanages... "I just found you."

"When he recovers, you can go to see him."

After hearing this, Tom buried himself in Nick's arms without saying a word.

"Good boy, I will take good care of you." Nick patted him lightly, and turned off the lamp, "Go to sleep, I have a lot of shopping to do tomorrow."
