[HP] The Order of the Phoenix Family

Chapter 22 Grimmauld Place, 1 Morning

Molly gets up at 05:30 every day. Compared with the years when the children were younger, she is much more relaxed. At least she can sleep soundly at night.She sometimes yawned and undressed, wondering what all the Muggle housewives who couldn't do magic would do with as many families as they did.

When his wife left the bed, Arthur mumbled in a daze, and Molly leaned over and kissed her husband on the cheek: "Sleep, Arthur, it's still early."

"Love you." She was basically talking in her sleep, but she would not doubt the authenticity of this sentence.

After washing up as soon as possible, Molly came to the kitchen. Before entering the door, she judged someone from the light, and without any surprise, she found that it was Sirius.Thanks to Azkaban, Sirius' sleep was terrible, and if he showed up before ten o'clock in the morning, it was almost certain that he hadn't slept at all.

Thinking of this, Molly couldn't help recalling that unbelievable story again.Peter Pedillo, the murderer had been a pet for a total of 12 years in the hands of Percy (no, she'd better not think of Percy) and Ron, and she hadn't even thought about going to see the mouse for so many years.Molly felt horrified when she thought that her whole family was within Pedilu's reach, and she couldn't help but feel that if she could find something abnormal, maybe Pediru wouldn't have the chance to help the mysterious man come back to life. Her husband and children will not be in danger.

Arthur said it was silly, who would have thought to check whether his son's pet was human?Unless that's what happened to them.Alas, before moving into the headquarters, she checked the chickens, Errol and the piglets suspiciously, and even Crookshanks after Hermione arrived, which may lead to the big cat. Never liked her very much.

If Sirius hadn't been building a card tower out of slices of bread, Molly might have felt more sorry for him, after all, she had given his culprit room and board for so many years.Sirius was a handsome young man, brave and with a good sense of humor, but there was something about him that Molly couldn't like him.How should I put it, the experience of being married for 25 years and raising seven children tells Molly that if you want to live a stable and safe life, a man like Sirius is something you have to stay away from.

"Don't waste food, Sirius," Molly said, spelling the pyramidal slices back into a neat stack.Sirius smiled up at her, out of friendliness, not his own.The blood in his eyes was so red that Molly wanted to tuck him in and sing him a lullaby, she'd let her maternal instincts go.

"Not a single one fell on the floor, and I washed my hands beforehand." Sirius assured, "They're all still edible, if not, leave them to me."

"You'll have to eat some of it," Molly replied. "How about an omelette on toast?"

"Don't bother." Sirius reached out to grab the slices of bread, but Molly directed them to hide across the table, and he frowned impatiently.

"It's nothing to worry about, you have to have breakfast," Molly said in the same way she would reassure Bill and Charlie, and Sirius shrugged and let her go.People always think this tone is reserved for the youngest children, but in reality after the third, she doesn't have the energy to be gentle with each child, and watching the twins is even more exhausting.Rebukes replaced persuasion more and more, so that when she finally found time to read Ron a bedtime story as everyone moved on to school, she made the youngest son uncomfortable.

As for the girl Ginny, she was the one who most wanted to be treated like an adult when she was a child—maybe because she was the only little sister.Looking at her always reminded Molly that when she was young, she was eager to break through the protective wings of her parents and brothers. She decided that a boy was her destiny and eloped desperately. Then she quickly had Bill and gave birth to seven children in ten years.In fact, she and Arthur are both Gryffindors, pure-bloods, and even red-haired. No matter how you look at it, they are a match made in heaven. The family objected because they felt that the two progressed too fast.If she persuaded them patiently, she would surely get their blessing, but a 17-year-old girl in love always thinks she doesn't care about anything else.

Molly blinked hard, suppressing sudden sentimentality.She really regretted the hurtful words she said to Gideon, Fabian, and Mom and Dad. After Molly eloped, she was so angry that she didn't contact her family for half a year. In the end, her brothers came to the Burrow with her favorite snacks and presents, and said a lot of obedient and obedient words like when I was a child, seeking to reconcile with my little sister.

Just a few years after that, they... Molly sighed, put the centered slice of bread in the butter and cracked an egg.Eggs on toast need to be cooked slowly to taste good, not a good choice when you need to prepare a breakfast for many people, but Sirius is particularly fond of this, although he declares that he treats everything better than raw rat meat without discrimination.A good meal always helps to improve mood.

While the pan was frying, Molly started another fire to heat the porridge.The copper pot in this kitchen is really a good thing. It heats evenly, is thick and durable, and may have a history longer than Dumbledore.Sirius chased the lazy little elf Kreacher back to his den, finally started to feel embarrassed, came over to ask Molly if he could help, got instructions to bake slices of bread, and stole the part of the bread she dug up when he left core.Knowing that he did it on purpose, Molly was still amused.

Halfway through the toast and omelette, the first visitors to the headquarters for the day arrived: Remus and Tonks, who had just finished their night shift.Hearing his voice before seeing him, he knew that Tonks had somehow woken up the portrait again, most likely because he tripped over the umbrella stand.The portrait of Mrs. Black screamed, the other children could continue to sleep, and Arthur and Bill might have to get up early for work.

Time was a little tight, Molly started to fry the bacon, and Sirius used his unevenly toasted toast to deal with his old friend and niece. Neither of them was picky, and of course Molly was not very satisfied with this.As she quickened her movements, the options on the table gradually increased, and Sirius gave the rest of the breakfast to the greedy Tonks. The situation soon turned into a female Auror feeding Sirius' big dog with broken pieces of bread , next to Remus smiling at this scene, you can see something gradually increasing in his eyes.

Sure enough, Arthur and Bill went downstairs one after another, and their breakfast was decent.The kitchen became lively, and several people chatted about the latest situation and tasks brazenly. Molly had to remind them that children might come in and hear them at any time.No one in the Order of the Phoenix seemed to really think it was important to keep the children away from the war, and Molly often felt isolated, and the way they gave in to her was irritating.

Hermione walked into the kitchen with today's Daily Prophet, followed by Crookshanks, the big yellow cat and the big black dog immediately rubbed each other affectionately.She greeted the others and sat down to read the newspaper.Molly stopped ordering that thing after the resurrection of the mysterious man. She was furious when the Ministry of Magic spread rumors about Dumbledore and Harry, but Hermione was not affected.She's always talking about "knowing what the enemy is saying" and she's frighteningly calm, and to be honest, Hermione is far from the kind of girl Molly had imagined Ron would like and marry.But it's hard to say now, obviously neither of them has made it clear yet.

Molly sat down to eat her own breakfast when no one came downstairs for a while after Arthur and Bill set out.Tonks stretched his waist and went upstairs to catch up on sleep. Sirius had returned to his human form, and he was slowly grooming the big cat on his lap, and he also began to doze off a little.Hermione chatted with Remus about homework and OWLs, and none of Molly's children cared as much about schoolwork as she did, except - stop, don't think about Percy.Although, how could she not want to?She was so, so proud of Percy, twelve excellent, prefects, head of the Boys' Council, working for the Ministry right out of school.He's been a good role model for Molly emphatically, until he's demoted his own family to nothing.

It's normal to think that way, if Arthur was willing to work his way up the Ministry of Magic, if she had fewer children and devoted that energy to a career, or at least a part-time job, they would be far better off financially .But then George, Fred, Ron, and Ginny might not exist, so how could Molly be willing?If Arthur hadn't been such a man who was so passionate about what he loved and couldn't care less about the temptations of money and power, she might not have fallen in love with him at all, and the whole family would have disappeared.Others could say those things, but Percy...

Molly couldn't help feeling sad again, and everyone reassured her that Percy was just confused for a while and would return to them sooner or later, but she knew how stubborn her third son was.The world is not peaceful now, and no one can predict what will be faced tomorrow. She was lucky enough to reconcile with her family back then. What if something happened to them before Percy returned?

Harry and Ron came downstairs before she went up to call, and the two boys looked miserable at her assignment of cleaning for the day. To be honest, Molly wasn't very enthusiastic herself, but these things had to be done, and the house needed to be done. living people.If even she complained, the children would be even more lazy than they are now.

It was Molly who knocked on the door and called out George and Fred, but they were both awake and bright, obviously not sleeping in the room with the cat.Although nothing new was found, Molly was still extremely vigilant. There are many rooms in the headquarters. She considered whether to order the twins to sleep separately, but when she thought about dealing with the bad things these two guys did in order to live together, She felt tired as hell.Let it go, Arthur kept reminding her that they were adults, and after their final year of school they were out of her hands altogether.Molly was going to cry a lot when Ginny left, but it wasn't bad to feel a little helpless now, like part of her life's mission had been accomplished.

Dragging a bag of jerky, Sirius walked past them like a ghost, and floated into the attic.He'd better not fall asleep in it and make himself stink.The hippogriff was definitely not on Molly's list of acceptable pets, and she doubted that one day a member of the club would be seriously injured by that irascible monster, which, for God's sake, had a wounding record.

The children had finished eating, and their eyes were rolling, trying to find an excuse to avoid working, ha, do you think your thoughts are so hidden?

"Everyone take a bottle of spray, put on the mask and gloves." Molly opened the box in the corner, broke their illusions, and ordered: "First deal with the vixen in the west room."
