Chapter 73 Afternoon Tea

Snape and Lucius closed the door and talked all morning, no one knew what they talked about.When I came out again, it was already noon.

Rong Jiu got into the kitchen after eating in the morning, so the things on the dining table at the moment are very beautiful, full of strong Chinese flavor.Lucius smiled and said, "It seems that I'm really in Severus' favor. Cassie doesn't do this much."

"Hey hey." Rong Jiu bit the fork and smirked, watching Snape fork a piece of braised pork into his mouth, then asked flatteringly, "How does it taste?"

"Yes." Snape replied lightly.

"En?" Rong Jiu's eyes widened.

Snape said, "Yes."

"Uh... delicious?" Rong Jiu asked persistently.

Snape's hand paused: "Well, it's delicious."

Only then did Rong Jiu shrink back contentedly, with that expression, one could imagine the tail wagging happily behind her.

Snape hooked the corners of his mouth and lowered his eyes, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Malfoy and his son shaking their plates constantly, holding back their laughter very hard.In the next second, his face darkened.

As I said before, Slytherins all have a strange mentality of "death to poor fellows and fellows". Since you make me unhappy, then you should also be unhappy with me.

"Draco, during the final exam, you put a little too much pangolin scale powder, and when you stirred it, you stirred it 1/4 turn longer, and the time to turn off the fire was too late, which caused the medicine to be a little worse than the snow-blue color," he said. Said deadpan, "Wait a minute write a paper on your performance on your final exam and hand it to me, I want to see it before I leave."

Draco looked up from his plate in astonishment and looked at Snape in disbelief.

"Also, Lucius," Snape continued to turn to Lucius with a blank expression, "the snake potion you mentioned last time, I've had a problem recently, so you either consider finding someone else to do it, or Postpone it."

Lucius, who was watching his son's joke, didn't expect the fire to be on his side: "But I've already got the order, Severus."

"Oh, really?" Snape showed a kind smile, and the next second he put it away, "What does that have to do with me?"

Narcissa turned a blind eye to the distress signal from the father and son, and instead talked to Rong Jiu in a low voice as if nothing had happened. The gloominess of the present day is simply a world of difference.

Of course, the two of them were not as calm as they looked on the inside, they were all gloating in their hearts.

"When Lucius was Severus' senior, there was nothing he could do about it, let alone now, he dared to see Severus' jokes, he asked for it." Narcissa thought, " Hmph, I still remember that Regina! After so many years, she still calls her so affectionate, she deserves to be punished."

Rong Jiu cheered for the professor in his heart: "Come on, professor, kill these two little thieves who dare to see our jokes!"

...So, every time Rong Jiu questioned how Draco became such a bandit, did he ever reflect on himself?

After lunch, Lucius and Snape continued to close the small dark room, Rong Jiu went back to his room to do his homework, halfway through, Draco rushed in from outside, howling.

"Help me!" Draco said tearfully, clutching a piece of parchment, "My final grade in Potions class was an O! Why are there so many questions? Where should I start writing?"

"Didn't the professor tell you everything at noon?" Rong Jiu reluctantly used her magic wand to remove a large drop of ink dripping on the parchment, and turned around, "I remember, the color you boiled out in the end was lotus root color? Isn't the color more Should the snow-blue color be darker? The heat should be the main issue."

"Snow blue? Lotus root color?" Draco looked at Rong Jiu helplessly, like a small yellow flower that had been ravaged by wind and frost, "Is there any difference? Aren't they all lavender?"

"...Anyway, the color of your potion is dark. Didn't the professor say that you turned off the fire too late and stirred too much." Rong Jiu rubbed his temples, "The color is not important, don't worry about it. Starting from the color, lead to the problem of heat, focus on the impact of heat on the potion, followed by excessive stirring, and finally mention the excessive addition of materials at the end, and then summarize it, the professor did not give you a limit on the length."

Draco turned himself into a studious student, and carefully wrote down on the parchment: "En, color, heat, stirring, ingredients..." Hearing the last sentence, his whole body exploded: "He didn't give I limit the length, but he threw me this!"

In grief and anger, he "brushed" all the parchment in his hand, the paper stretched from his shoulders to his knees, covering most of him tightly.

Three seconds later, a burst of laughter came from Rong Jiu's room, startling a crow sitting on a treetop.

"Tell me, do I dare not write it all? Do I dare to write him the length of a piece of ordinary parchment?" Draco lay on Rong Jiu's bed with a look of lovelessness.

"Then don't hurry up, the professor said he needs to see it before he leaves." Rong Jiu reminded.

"How is this possible! I have to write six parchment papers, can I finish it in one afternoon?"

Rong Jiu gave him some serious advice: "You can make the words bigger and looser, the space between words should be larger, the gap between lines should be larger, and each paragraph should end at the beginning of a line. That way you can write less."

"I still can't finish writing, Jiu, help me." Draco jumped up from the bed, grabbed Rong Jiu's sleeve, pouted and acted coquettishly, "Help me, I'll write the first half, you write the second half How about the part? Anyway, our handwriting is so similar..."

"Mist Grass! Speak up!" At this moment, Rong Jiu seemed to see the appearance of Draco and Pan Xi's son. During this June, she shuddered, "Let go! Let go! !I help……"

The sentence "I'll help you" has already rolled on the tip of her tongue, but in the next second, Rong Jiu suddenly noticed that there was a touch of blackness in her peripheral vision, and immediately swallowed the "you" back abruptly: "...What help? Ah? Help for what? The task given to you by the professor must be done well, he is doing it for your own good."

"You've changed, Jiu." Draco squatted on the ground, lowered his head, and said in a very low tone, "You were not like this before, you wrote my potions papers before, and you gave me the final exam Reminder... don't kick me, isn't this all the truth? You don't want me after you have a professor, do you remember our friendship before?...don't hold me..."

Draco was horrified to find that Rong Jiu's hands and feet were all retracted into the chair, and he smiled flatteringly above him.

Then, the one holding his collar is...?

He turned his head slowly, and after turning a little bit, he caught sight of the corner of the black robe that reached the floor.

"Oh? It seems that you really... have a deep friendship?" That soft voice sounded from behind him, but to these two, it was simply the whisper of a demon.

"No, professor, listen to my explanation..." Draco tried to make amends, but was interrupted by Snape: "From the first grade to the present, all the potions papers have been rewritten by myself. See them, Malfoy."

Taking advantage of Snape's full attention on Draco, Rong Jiu carefully stood up from the chair, tiptoed, and moved out a little bit, intending to run away before he turned his attention to himself , but obviously, she failed.

"And you, too." Snape turned around and looked at her with a half-smile. Very good."

"Both, it's all taught well by the professor." Rong Jiu tried hard to put on a bright smile, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a crying face.

"This holiday, make a batch of Veritaserum." Snape said blankly, "If the quantity and quality don't satisfy me, then maybe you will become the experimenter of your own potion?"

"Professor, how much is a batch of...?" Rong Jiu asked cautiously.

Snape said flatly, "Until I'm satisfied. Do you have any questions?"

"No more, Professor." Rong Jiu glared at Draco with a sad face.

Veritaserum, right, no problem, even if I will be the experimenter of my potion, I can't be the first experimenter anyway, can I?

"I, I, I, I'm going back to write my thesis!" Draco was trembling from this look, and ran away. Before the voice had dispersed, he disappeared without a trace. By the way, he slammed the door of the room hard. Liu Rongjiu and Snape stared at each other in the room.

"Professor, have you talked with Uncle Lucius?" Rong Jiu is no longer the girl who blushed when she saw the professor in the past, she is now a girl who blushes and teases her.

"En." Snape's expression became gentler, "I'm surprised that you were able to convince Lucius, even though he's still so slippery..."

Thinking of Lucius' sly face, he couldn't help curling his lips.

It sounds nice, but in fact, if Dumbledore fails unfortunately, he still has nothing to lose.

However, being able to give financial support to the Order of the Phoenix is ​​already very good.

"You've found a treasure." After talking about the business, Lucius leaned back lazily and took a sip of tea comfortably, "It's really rare to have a unique vision, a quick mind, and such an emphasis on love and righteousness. I really feel a little pity, if only our Draco could be a little more charming."

Snape looked at the girl in front of him.Although I really don't want to say that, she was indeed created by him. Her grades, knowledge, and abilities almost caught up with him back then.What is different from him is that she is more enthusiastic and brave, full of hope and love for the world, just like a little fire in the dark night, bringing brightness and warmth to those around her.

"Well done." Snape commented, which was already considered a very high evaluation for him.

"Then, is there a reward?" Rong Jiu's eyes lit up immediately, looking at him expectantly, fluttering like a puppy begging for a bone.

Snape was a little uncomfortable, he had never gotten along with people like this before.On the one hand, it's because he doesn't want to get in touch with others, on the other hand, there are not many people with such a heart and shame as Rong Jiu...

He cleared his throat lightly, and sat down on the chair beside him: "What do you want?"

Unprepared, Rong Jiu threw herself directly on his knees, her soft body conveyed the warmth through the thin fabric, her face was raised up, her twinkling eyes were full of joy, and her face was full of joy. It's anticipation, combined with her sweet appearance, it's really a bit tempting.

Snape swallowed subconsciously.

Is this girl too thoughtful or short-sighted?

In the next second, Rong Jiu gave the answer.He didn't think much about it at all, he learned this pose from Pan Xi, with a sincere face, he said frankly, "Can I stop making Veritaserum?"

Snape frowned.

"A reward is a reward, a punishment is a punishment," he replied.

"The merits and demerits are equal!"

"kindness."

"Professor, do you agree?"

"What you said makes sense," Snape lowered his eyes and paused a little, seeing a big smile unfolding on the face of the girl lying on his knees, which was as bright as the sunlight outside the window, Then continued, "But no."

He was satisfied to see that big smile froze in the middle, and then quickly collapsed.

Those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black, this sentence is very reasonable...

"But I can't think of anything else." Rong Jiu pouted, looking unhappy.The non-existent tail landed low and swept the ground.

"You can think about it." Snape had an imperceptible smile in his eyes, raised his hand, and gently rubbed the top of her head, "No rush."

The author has something to say:
