[Comprehensive Manga] The good year of making copies

The new life is not bad, but busy and fulfilling.

Xia Chuan went out early and returned late every day, of course not to discuss work as the housekeeper Andre thought, but to buy some books for Tom, from the wizarding world, and some ordinary ones.

From children's literacy to advanced textbooks, all the books in the wizarding world, whether advanced or usable, were bought and brought back.

By the way, he invited a tutor and a junior charm instructor for Tom.

The etiquette teacher had just left, and I talked with him for a while before leaving: Tom has a very good temperament, but he is always unwilling to spend his time on the cultivation of etiquette.

Xia Chuan knew that Tom was obviously more inclined to learn the knowledge of the wizarding world. Xia Chuan frowned slightly as he watched Tom, who was learning how to use the language, make small movements in the blind spot of the tutor's sight by the window.

The gesture used by the spell, Tom was getting used to it.

It's not good to go on like this.Xia Chuan thought, magic is important, but Tom's identity is really bad in his eyes.

Not everyone in the wizarding world can speak Parseltongue, nor is it that no one can speak Parseltongue.Traveling in the wizarding world these days had taught him a word: Parseltongue.

Parseltongue has a high status in the wizarding aristocracy, it is the symbol of the Slytherin family - and the Slytherin blood seems to have disappeared in the wizarding world for a long time.

But the status of the Slytherin family is unquestionable, and Hogwarts still has the name of a house.

If the distinction is strictly made, those nobles who graduated from Slytherin can be called the subordinates of the Slytherin family.

And Tom...

Xia Chuan felt that it was really difficult to be a babysitter.

"Da da."

"Gelegon!" Tom looked at Xia Chuan who opened the door in surprise, and looked at the wall clock by the wall.

In my impression, Xia Chuan probably won't come back at this point.

"I'm very sorry to disturb your class, Mr. Charles." Xia Chuan nodded slightly to the frowning teacher, "I have something to tell Tom..."

Charles paused, and after saying goodbye, he was led out by the butler.

"Tom." Xia Chuan hesitated for a moment, but decided to express his concerns. "Put the spell down first, you need to learn these things."

"Ok?"

"The wizarding world is not as good as you imagined." Xia Chuan sat on a chair not far from Tom, "Not everyone in the wizarding world can speak snake language...Your blood is very noble."

Tom was taken aback for a moment, and then turned into ecstasy—he wanted to know his own life experience in his dreams, he wanted to know his father and mother, and even his family.

And now Xia Chuan, who is like a savior to him, tells him that his blood is noble...

"I think you have read a lot of books in the wizarding world?" Xia Chuan asked, "So you must know a lot about Hogwarts, so you know about Slytherin?"

"Well, the college I'm going to in the future." Tom nodded affirmatively.

"..." Xia Chuan was silent for a moment, "You are a Slytherin."

Tom nodded, then froze.

Xia Chuan rubbed his temples, "Parseltongue - you are a Slytherin."

"So you need to learn etiquette and the use of language. You must become a qualified nobleman. I hope it's not too late to start training you now."

The teachers he paid for were all well-ranked in London. If it weren't for the mind-disturbing pocket watch, they might not be willing to give a professor who has no status and only rich upstarts need to contact these upper-class professors. thing.

"You should be better... no, you should be the best."

It is the duty of an adult to do his best to give cubs a good educational environment.As Tom's adopter, Xia Chuan would try his best to do the best even if it wasn't because of the task.

"I'll be the best!" Tom stood up and raised his chin slightly. That posture reminded Xia Chuan of the Malfoy father and son he saw in Diagon Alley a few days ago.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and after struggling for a while, he reached out and stroked Tom's neatly groomed short black hair, "I believe in Slytherin."

The system of the wizarding world is not as complicated as that of the elves. It is relatively simple to understand the composition system and living habits of the wizarding world.

Wearing a wizard's robe, Xia Chuan once again stepped into Diagon Alley.

The old wizard who taught Tom the spell said that Tom needed a wand.

And little wizards cannot buy wands before the age of 11. Xia Chuan glanced at Ollivander's wand shop, turned around and walked into Knockturn Alley.

Malfoy's appearance rate seems to be particularly high recently, and his favorability is also increasing in a strange trend.

Xia Chuan looked at Olierno Malfoy who was standing in front of the Borgin Burke counter, paused, ignored him, and walked directly to the counter.

"I need a wand for an eight-year-old."

It was rare to see someone in Knockturn Alley who didn't cover up his appearance. Borgin Burke carefully looked at the appearance of the person in front of him.

"Celegon..."

"Call me Jalan Nord, thank you." Xia Chuan turned his head to interrupt Malfoy, and urged the shopkeeper by the way.

Xia Chuan didn't mind the little Malfoy calling him that, but he was a bit shy about this guy whose first impression was very bad.

The patriarch of Platinum shrugged, and calmly accepted Borgin Bock's slightly surprised look.

"This one won't work." Malfoy held down Xia Chuan's hand that was about to catch the wand that Borgin Burk handed over, and raised his eyebrows.

Apparently the elf didn't know how to pick a wand for a child.

Xia Chuan glanced at Malfoy, hesitated for a moment or withdrew his hand, squinting at the shopkeeper.

Malfoy, on the other hand, had thought of another.

Like why an elf would go to Knockturn Alley, where black magic is everywhere, to buy wands for children.

A little wizard cared for by an elf?Or is this elf's child at all?It's not uncommon for elves to have a young face but already have children, after all, their lifespan is so long.

Thinking of this, he tentatively opened his mouth, "Child? Boy or girl?"

"boy."

Malfoy responded with some regret.

Xia Chuan was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly understood, his face turned dark.

Do you want to breed him that much?Even the children are not spared!

Malfoy felt the elf's low pressure, a smile flashed in his silver-gray eyes, and he coughed lightly: "Actually, there are toy wands for children in Diagon Alley..."

"He needs the best." Xia Chuan retorted without thinking, emphasizing: "He wants the best."

...is really a good father who loves his children.Malfoy thought so, and whispered a few words to Borgin Burk.

"Then I'll give it to you, as a gift for a friend." Malfoy looked at the back of Borgin Bock as he entered the warehouse, and gave the elf a friendly smile.

Xia Chuan was caught by a smile, pondered for a while, left the counter expressionlessly to look at the items on the shelves, and took down many of them one by one.

Feng Shui turns around, when he courted people, people didn't want to see him, but now someone courted him, and he was... a rich man.

well.

Xia Chuan held a bunch of magic items and put them on the counter, squinting his eyes in satisfaction, "Send it to me."

The elves returned with a full load, and they also got a Malfoy with a favorability of 14.

He was in a good mood, Andre saw it, and Tom saw it too.However, neither of them was a talkative person, so they didn't ask too much.

Tom cut the steak on his plate with standard dining etiquette, without making a sound.

Xia Chuan squinted his eyes in satisfaction, and ate a cherry.

"Andre." Xia Chuan shouted. These days are enough for him to be sure that the housekeeper is harmless. "Come to my room."

He didn't ask how loyal the young housekeeper would be to the family in such a short time, but at least he wanted to ensure that he would not leak certain things in the family.

Xia Chuan watched Andre come to the door, and thought for a while: "I think you probably know something about Tom..."

Andre was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head respectfully: "Yes."

In this family, some unreasonable things are often seen, such as the teacup suddenly floats up, a certain book makes a sound or suddenly flies out of the bookshelf when tidying up the study room, and a certain mirror in the young master’s room suddenly turns to Evaluation of his work...

He knew all this. Although the young butler who had been educated by the traditional British butler was a little frightened, he didn't make any comments on these items of the master.

In his memory, none of the nobles in England had the surname Gallanord, and those who taught the young master were all senior social beings who might not even be able to invite the upper-class nobles.

These things made Andre more or less prepared for the mysterious identity of the owner.

The elf looked at his butler carefully again, touched the camouflage ring on his finger: "Do you know how to do it?"

"Yes, sir."

After a pause, Xia Chuan walked up to Andre, put his right hand on the ring worn on the little finger of his left hand: "Look up."

The tail of golden hair hangs slightly in front of his chest, and Andre stares blankly at the ear of the person in front of him elongated and pointed, his eyes have faded to emerald green, even the whites of his eyes are light green—even his skin Also pale a lot.

Mr. Butler was completely stunned.

He'd thought that his master might have come from a mysterious hermit family or something - just wouldn't think of non-humans.

"Surprised?" Xia Chuan looked at the stiff butler, "As you can see, I am not human, but Tom is."

"..." Mr. Steward thought about it for a long time before he moved his stiff neck and continued to maintain a respectful posture: "Yes, sir."

"Elves have a long lifespan. I will leave here sooner or later. I hope you can take good care of Tom." Xia Chuan said very solemnly. Instead of entrusting Andre in a hurry when he is about to leave, it is better to make it clear to Andre from the beginning. Accept it early.

Although Xia Chuan's grasp of people's hearts is not bad, it is not good either. Who knows what the other party thinks.

What would Tom do if he left and Andre took his fortune?Now that he has made it clear, if Andre has a different heart, he can find out as soon as possible, so that he can arrange another retreat for Tom.

—The Malfoys are fine.
