HP let go of that little bat

After getting a definite answer, the Evans family was specially driven into town by Mr. Evans to go shopping during the Christmas special period.

News of discounts or rebates was posted in every store. Mr. Evans was carrying bags behind the three ladies, with more and more things in his hands, but the ladies were still in high spirits.Fortunately, this commercial area belongs to the pedestrian street, and you can check out at the special exit, if you can’t find the checkout after buying the goods.

The advantage of this is that there are free shopping carts available in some specific locations, especially for such festivals, and such a design is particularly considerate.

Anyway, I have to buy things. It is better to push a cart like this instead of carrying bags stupidly behind my wife and children.The most important thing is that there are graded areas for goods in this business district. This time, the Evans family came to the high-end area after transferring to the mid-range area of ​​the usual main battlefield.

A pack of five square patterned napkins was priced at two pounds. The two sisters, who had been fancying a pattern, let go before the price. They decided to buy the exquisite dim sum optional set they had just spotted.

"Lily, haven't you prepared your gift yet?" Petunia asked beside her sister.

"Ready." Lily raised her head and pointed to the dark spots under her eyes, "This is the evidence. But now I'm thinking about adding something, isn't there still some time?" After speaking, she continued with the two suits in her hand. indecisive.

"Then let's do this. It looks good together with the one you prepared earlier."

"Well, that's fine." Lily carried two large bags of wool and put them into the shopping cart. There were no dolls or small accessories that little girls like in her shopping cart, but small tools that can be used for handicrafts. , materials and some necessary ingredients for the cooking she wants to learn.

"Lily, are you trying to train yourself to be a good wife?" Petunia looked at Lily's shopping cart and laughed.

"I just discovered where my talent is, so I decided to cultivate it." Lily glanced at Penny's shopping cart, and approached her sister with a little cunning: "Do you like Justin?"

"I didn't." Petunia retorted a little bit annoyed.

"Really? I remember Elena said that Justin likes blueberry pie..." Lily turned her eyes to the ingredients in Penny's shopping cart suggestively, "Obviously, someone here is duplicity. You know I'm very dissatisfied with this Yes, I didn't hide anything from my sister after all. But my sister..."

"I'll tell you when I get back..." Hearing the voice of her mother calling them, Penny took her sister's arm and walked towards her parents.

The pre-Christmas specials are very attractive, and almost everyone's shopping cart is full.The Evans family spent nearly an hour in the checkout process before finally changing the ownership of the selected items from the merchant to themselves.

The trunk was stuffed so hard that the door would fall out when driving. The family had dinner at a nearby restaurant before returning home to rest.

Hang a holy garland of ivy and furs on the front door, and hang the sage over the door.Mr Evans brought home a real pine tree three days before Christmas.It was placed by the fireplace in the living room, and the family came together to decorate their Christmas tree with lights, toys, stars, cherubs, and more.Unlike the fake trees placed before, it has a unique fragrance of pine trees.

When it was time to hang Christmas stockings by the fireplace, Lily took out two that had been prepared earlier.When Mrs. Evans smiled and asked her little daughter why she prepared two socks, Lily lowered her head and refused to say anything.In response to her reaction, Mrs. Evans and Petunia smiled at each other, and Mr. Evans was so depressed that he wanted to scratch the wall.It was time for his lovely little daughter to have secrets that she couldn't tell her dear father. The more he thought about it, the more desolate Mr. Evans was, biting his handkerchief and weeping silently in his heart.

The house was almost decorated, and Mrs. Evans and her two daughters prepared the menu for the Christmas dinner.After all, guests were invited, so Mrs. Evans added suckling pig after turkey and ham on the menu.

In the plan that Lily brought to Severus later, there was an invitation for Snape and her son to stay at home for two nights. Christmas Eve will come and go shopping together in the city before leaving on the 26th. Mrs. Snape also agreed to this. , she needs to buy some daily necessities for her son.

In the evening of peace, mother and son Snape rang the doorbell of Evans' house on time.Mrs. Snape walked all the way and looked around her surroundings, recalling what she saw at Spider's End, she felt even more guilty towards her son in her heart.She tightened her hands with the money she earned from making potions, thinking about what she could buy.

The door opened, and one, two, three... all of the Evans family appeared at the door.Mrs. Snape quickly reacted, put on a decent smile and greeted the two adults.Lily looked at Severus trying to hide her bewilderment and followed Mrs. Snape to say hello to her parents, grinning almost to the ear, in exchange for an embarrassed stare from the other party.

"Let's talk first." Mr. Evans stepped aside first, and Lily, who was the last to enter the room, closed the door.When the mother and son took off their coats, Lily was surprised to find that Severus was well dressed.Shirts, dark sweaters and trousers, and most inescapably, his new hairstyle.

"Yes, I'm preparing a turkey." The atmosphere had turned relaxed after a few topics, Mrs. Evans said after hearing Mrs. Snape's words. "And the apples I'm going to eat tonight. I haven't figured out how to make them. Whether it's a pie or a salad."

"Candy apples," said Mrs. Snape.

"Candy apples?"

"Yes, there is another way of eating that I liked very much when I was a child." Mrs. Snape's face glowed because of the mention of her childhood: "The method is very simple. Maybe we can make some preparations."

"If it doesn't bother you." Mrs. Evans got up and walked towards the kitchen while chatting with Mrs. Snape about how to make food.

"I still have some things to deal with..." Mr. Evans coughed twice and let the three children play by themselves before leaving.

When her father's figure disappeared on the stairs, Lily finally couldn't hold back her laughter.She lay on her sister's shoulders first, then she fell on the sofa and laughed and thumped, and finally she lay on her back on the carpet wrapped in a blanket on the sofa, and stopped laughing before she was almost out of breath.

At this moment, Severus was blushing, "Miss Lily Evans, I don't think any lady would make such an inappropriate move."

"No, Severus. Lily is just trying to be a lady."

"Laughing is the way Miss Lily Evans treats her friends? Then anyone who wants to be friends with you needs to have a big heart." Severus knew he was being sharp, but he just couldn't control it live.Not to mention Lily's reaction, even he himself is not satisfied with the current hairstyle.
