witch mary bennet

In the evening, he sent her back to the dormitory, and Bader was kissing Mary reluctantly, when suddenly, there was a light knock on the door.

Mary was taken aback, she panicked, but Badr laughed, he lowered his voice, "Hey, Mary, don't make it look like you were caught cheating, we're already engaged."

However, Mary pushed him into the bathroom involuntarily. She forced herself to calm down and made up her mind that no matter who it was, she would block the door.

But the person who came was not human. The house elf Shuya, with bandages on her thin arms and several scars on her ears, was standing outside the door smiling at her.

Mary was surprised and delighted, "Why are you? Shuya? Aren't you at Becker's house?" At this moment, she had completely forgotten her previous thoughts, and let her into the room while talking .

"Mr. Baker told me everything," Shuya said happily, "He said that he came to rescue me entirely because of Mr. Knight's entrustment, and that I was going to follow you, Miss Bennet. Well... oh, Mr. Knight!"

The house elf bowed deeply in a panic, and when Mary turned her head, Baldr had slipped out of the bathroom at some point, and her face immediately flushed red.

In this regard, Shuya was much smarter than her, and she said enthusiastically, "Mr. Knight, it's a pleasure to meet you. After you and Miss Bennet get married, please give me a tea towel from your house. "

Badr immediately agreed, and then he laughed again, "Shuya, you should ask Miss Bennet what she wants you to wear."

Mary saw that Shuya was wearing an ordinary calico skirt, so she also smiled, "Shuya, I don't have a tea towel for you to wear, but I think this skirt is not bad."

"Mrs. Becker gave it to me, she is such a kind person," Shuya said loudly, "Miss Bennet, I used to think that wearing clothes was a terrible thing, but now it seems that clothes are also good."

"Yeah," Mary thought for a while, "When I get home, I'll find out if my childhood clothes are still at home, so I can make them smaller for you to wear."

"Oh, Miss Bennet, thank you so much!" Shu Ya cheered.

In fact, Mary was more concerned about what happened to Shuya at Dresden's house and her injuries. She called her to her side, "Shuya, let me see your wounds."

"The house-elves in the Becker family said my arm will be healed soon," Shuya jumped to Mary's side, "the ear should be healed, it was pulled by Mrs. Dresden last week. "

"Why does she pull your ear?" Mary was furious.

"Mary, don't be angry," Bader said immediately, "She must have regarded herself as Shuya's master."

"Yes, I thought so too at first," Shuya said, "I regarded the Dresden mother and daughter as my masters, and then I suddenly discovered that I could secretly complain about them instead of Because of this, they will do self-mutilation things like hitting their heads against the wall, which only shows that they are not my masters anymore."

"Miss Dresden hasn't gone to work for a long time." Bader sneered. "St. Mungo should have such a magic. For employees who have been absent for a long time, her employee status will automatically disappear."

"Maybe that's true," but Mary was still puzzled. "Shuya, didn't Mrs. Dresden throw the clothes to you? Since she's not your master, giving you clothes shouldn't work."

"Actually, it was Mr. Dresden who threw the clothes to me," Shuya almost involuntarily lowered his voice, "Mrs. Dresden helped her husband cover up the truth, and they even cast an oblivion spell on me. Too bad their spells don't work on me."

Both Mary and Bader smiled suddenly, no matter what happened to the Dresden family, it would be good for Shuya to get rid of them.

The house-elf smiled smugly, "I've been pretending to have forgotten everything, and Mr. Dresden is no longer my master. It doesn't affect me to lie to him."

Mary said "Yeah", thinking of the troubles she encountered when going through the resignation procedures, she felt rather regretful, "If the truth of the matter gets out, Mr. Dresden may not be able to continue to be the dean of St. Mungo's." long."

"Things won't be that simple," Badr waved his hand, "Dresden's healing skills are very good, so just because of Shuya, it may not be possible to make him step down. Anyway, this The incident has already happened, and it can be used as an excuse at any time in the future, I think, that's what Becker planned."

Mary just nodded, but Shuya asked loudly from the side, "Mr. Knight, Miss Bennet, what work do you want me to do?"

Bader asked, "Shuya, did you tell them when you came out from Becker's house?"

Shuya shook her head, "I only spoke to the house elf who took care of me."

"Then you should go back early," Mary said hastily, "I have nothing to do here."

"Yes," Bader also smiled, "Miss Bennet and I will pick you up tomorrow, and we will help her carry her luggage home the day after tomorrow."

The house elf repeatedly agreed, and after she left, Baldr told Mary that there was no contractual relationship between Shuya and her that a house elf should have, and whether to find a way to make up for it.

"It's not necessary," Mary hesitated, "I think Shuya is fine."

"Maybe it's just your point of view," Badr smiled, "Mary, you probably don't know house elves yet, Shuya is a very smart little guy, when we were talking about Dresden and Becker just now, she She acted as if she wanted to avoid it, because she didn’t have a contract with us, but she was worried that she would cause trouble if she heard some secret things from us.”

Mary thought about it carefully, "Then I'll ask Shuya another day for her own opinion. I shouldn't be in a hurry, right?"

"It's no more urgent than getting married," Bader laughed, and then spread his hands helplessly, "Honey, Becker will definitely not ask for my money, for Shuya, we owe him a favor now... "

"Oh, Bader," Mary frowned, "is there no way to return his favor? This is really troublesome!"

"Becker is not as honest and honest as you think." Bader was still smiling, and he leaned over and rubbed her shoulder, "Don't worry, I just want to tell you that according to his usual calculation, he Sooner or later, something will come to us, so just wait patiently."

It was already very late at night, and Badr gave Mary a few more instructions, and then went back.Only then did Mary take out the plain handkerchief she bought at Diagon Alley at noon, and began to trace the pattern she had chosen on it.

Now that there is no pressure to get up early to go to work, Mary has been busy until after twelve o'clock that night. Embroidery is not difficult for her, but she has not had a needle and thread for too long, and she still feels quite uncomfortable at the beginning. Rusty, the stitches embroidered are not neat enough, so I can only be thankful that I bought a few more handkerchiefs, and I can take out one to practice my hands.

The night without work pressure was not a solid sleep. Poor Mary was still embroidering in her dream. She jumped up and continued to embroider when she fell asleep at seven o'clock. Circle vines around the letter N and you're done.

"Merlin's beard!" Baldr turned over the handkerchief and looked at it over and over again, "You are a genius, you can embroider such a beautiful pattern without spells!"

He glanced at her suddenly, "Mary, you haven't been up all night embroidering this, have you?"

"Of course not," Mary lied without hesitation, "I got up this morning and started to embroider such a simple pattern, and I had lunch in the middle, so I finished it with ease."

"Oh, you're amazing," he praised loudly, putting his handkerchief into his pocket, "I'm going to show off and see which of their wives can match your skills."

"Badr, this is too exaggerated." Mary was taken aback. "I'd better wait until I embroider a better one, and you can show it to others."

"Don't worry, my dear," Badr was still complacent, "As far as I know, witches from wizard families don't learn this. Have you ever seen your female classmates embroider or play the piano?"

This is indeed not the case, but Mary still stubbornly repeated what she said just now, so Bader could only agree.

"Mary, speaking of your classmates," Bader changed the subject, "Have you written to Sophie to tell Sophie that we are engaged?"

This is what Mary feared, and she looked at him with a sad face, "The Windermere family is considered your relatives. If I write a letter rashly, I am afraid that Mr. Windermere and Mrs. Windermere will be unhappy."

There is a problem that the two of them have never mentioned to each other. Although everything that Baldr arranged back then has benefited him a lot, everyone in the Windermere family knows his original purpose. At one point, Mary felt extremely embarrassed.

Badr naturally knew it well, he immediately lowered his head and kissed the hairline on her forehead, as if he wanted to help her drive away all annoying thoughts, and after a while, he said, "You too No need to write a letter, let me write, and tell my aunt and uncle that we will visit them at Stillwater Manor on the weekend. They invited me to stay for a few days when Phipps got married last time, and I haven't been there yet. .”

Mary breathed a sigh of relief. With Bader around, she seemed to have the courage to face everyone. After thinking about it, she smiled and said, "Let me write a letter to Sophie first."

Badr just agreed, and didn't mean to continue this topic.Mary went to see him again, but he showed a wry smile.

"Mary, there is one more troublesome thing." His eyes averted a little, "I'm really embarrassed to tell you any more."

"What is it?" Mary laughed, "Tell me, Baldr."

"Phibos and his wife are going to attend our wedding," Bader's words were a little confused, "You don't mind, do you?"

Mary was even more surprised, "Badr, did you plan not to let them attend our wedding?"

Although it was still awkward to meet, Mary had never thought about what it would be like if Bader's own brother didn't show up at his wedding.

"Well," he nodded sullenly, and then said in a particularly helpless tone, "I thought it would be good if he kept opposing our marriage, so there is no need to invite the couple to join us. However, when I went to their house yesterday, he had accepted it all and was able to raise a glass to congratulate me on my happiness, which was really unexpected, but, according to him, it was all because he accepted my The kind words of my sister-in-law persuaded me."

This Mrs. Phipps Knight has always been better than her husband. However, Mary was noncommittal, so Bader forced a smile, "She clearly knows that continuing to maintain a good relationship with us is very important to them. It is beneficial and harmless.”

Mary smiled casually, "Badr, in my opinion, your brother should sincerely hope that you can become a noble family, at least you should be a pure-blooded witch from an ancient wizard family..."

"Oh, Mary, don't say that," he hurriedly hugged her tightly again, "I am very lucky to marry you, those pure-blood witches are inferior to you in my opinion."

"Badr, I don't expect to be able to compare with them." Mary smiled more happily, "However, you have such a high opinion of me, don't you think you can always say these things?"

"Of course," Bader agreed immediately and neatly.

The author has something to say: After thinking about it, I still want to arrange a contract for Shuya, but the matter of raising elves is settled...

What else do you think about the wedding?I think even if the next chapter can't be written, the next chapter will definitely be!
