Chapter 5 Fudge

When the Quidditch season started, the weather became extremely cold, and Lida rushed to the auditorium shivering.She huddled between the twins, letting their heat warm her.

Lida hugged the plate and took a big sip, the hot soup flowed into her stomach, which made her feel better.She sighed contentedly, and said, "Merlin, I'm starting to regret joining the Quidditch team. Even the heat-preserving spell can't warm me up! And Wood also asked us to attend training in the cold wind three times a week. She took another sip of soup and muttered, "Wood won't find a girlfriend like this."

Fred reached out and shook her hand holding the bowl. The palm was warm, but the back of the hand felt like an ice cube. He put his gloves on Lida and said, "Your hands are almost frozen to ice." Already! Are you sure you cast a warming spell on yourself?"

Lida felt that her hands were covered with warmth. She looked at the gloves that were much bigger than her hands, and the feeling of palpitation came out again.She stared blankly at Fred's face when he was telling a joke, and the occasional smirk, and his face was burning hot.

Fred turned to look at her and asked, "What's the matter?" Lida shook her head and smiled at him reservedly: "It's nothing." She raised the glove on her hand and said, "Thank you, Fred .”

Fred seemed to realize something suddenly, turned around to look at her, and asked, "I suddenly realized, why have you never missed me and George?"

Lida was taken aback by his question, and said, "I don't know, it's not difficult to tell you apart!" Fred was a little shocked by her, and he said, "But everyone will get us wrong!" Lida Just imitate their usual winking expressions and say, "But I just don't know how to do it!"

Fred: "..."

Lida, who participated in the Quidditch competition for the first time, was not particularly nervous. She even looked more relaxed than usual. She sat on the long table, chatting and laughing with Angelina and Katie, and occasionally answered a joke thrown by the twins. .

Lida, who was lying on the table laughing at Fred's joke, looked up and saw Harry who couldn't eat.Lida thought: Poor Harry, is he too nervous.She felt that as a sister, she should give him some comfort and encouragement.

Lida said hello to her friend, sat down next to Harry, smiled at him, and said, "Good morning, Harry."

Harry also seemed a little uncomfortable talking to her: "Oh... hey... Lida..." He looked very shy and nervous.

Lida played with her two braids. She grew up alone and didn't know how to be a big sister.But when she saw that Harry was still not used to it, she suddenly relaxed: "The Quidditch match is about to start, are you nervous?"

Harry was a little embarrassed, and Lida even saw his face turn red, and she felt that if she continued to ask, it might make Harry more nervous.

She took out a red string from her bag, put it on Harry's hand, and tied a beautiful knot: "This is for you, a gift from the Goldstein family. Whenever someone needs blessings, we will I will tie a red string around my wrist, which will bring you good luck!" As she spoke, she also showed the same red string in her hand.

Harry's expression was a bit tangled, he looked like he wanted it, but he couldn't: "...but...I'm not..."

Lida interrupted him: "You are my younger brother!" Harry stared at her a little embarrassed, Lida patted his head: "Let's work together!"

Before the game started, Wood said a lot of inspiring words, but Lida didn't listen to a word. The loud voices outside made her a little nervous.

Fred put his elbows on her shoulders and said, "Take it easy, we'll protect you from being hit by the Bludger!" George put his arms around his chest and said, "Don't worry if you do get hit. Days later people will pick you up in the black lake."

"Maybe months?" Fred said.Lida gave them a blank look, but she was indeed not that nervous anymore.

Lida followed Angelina and Katie out of the locker room and onto the field. The excitement of the field was deafening her ears.With the sound of Mrs. Hooch's silver whistle, Lida kicked her feet and rose into the sky.The game has officially begun.

With no buffer time, the game seemed to reach its peak immediately.Angelina snatched the Quaffle first, galloping on her broom and passing it to Katie before being pinched by the Slytherins.

Both were very good Chasers, but Slytherin knew their flying characteristics well.As a new addition, Lida has no one to guard, and they all seem to think that a thin Chaser is not enough to justify.

However, Lida quickly showed her strength. She was not afraid of the Slytherin's violent way of scoring, and rushed directly in front of Marcus Flint to intercept.While he was making a sharp turn, he flipped over and snatched the Quaffle from his hand.

Lee Jordan in the stands yelled happily: "—she did it! Goldstein did it! She intercepted the Quaffle from Marcus like a preying hawk— Gryffindor! Congratulations to Gryffindor for finding another excellent Chaser! I have to say, she is such a charming girl, I dare say that there is no third year girl in Hogwarts who is more beautiful than her— —I'm sorry, Professor..."

Lida didn't hear what Lee Jordan was saying at all, she was engrossed on the court.Two of Slytherin's Chasers had been mobbing her since she had just demonstrated a trick.

She passed the ball to Angelina, and Katie flew beside Angelina, waiting for her to pass the ball to herself at any time.But the Slytherins seemed to be on the alert, and they were flying around Angelina, and if she threw the ball, they would catch the Quaffle like wild animals.

Lida didn't come close, and fiddled with Flint.This little troll-like Slytherin is very difficult to deal with, and he looks ugly.Lida saw Fred flying over from the opposite side, and gestured to him. Fred nodded slightly, and hit the Bludger towards Lida.

Lida had been prepared for a long time, she swooped down and dodged the Bludger, but Flint behind her didn't expect that Fred would hit the Bludger at his Chaser, and barely avoided it. Suddenly, the broom was almost dropped, and there were bursts of screams and cheers from the Gryffindor stands.

By the time Flint reacted, Lida had already flown under Angelina, caught the Quaffle from her, and scored.

Lida was more pleased with Slytherin's cursing than Gryffindor's cheering, and she liked to see these little snakes upset.For this reason, Lida flew around in front of the Slytherin stands to show off, and gave Fred a tacit high-five.

Harry, who was looking for the snitch in a high place, also started to act. His actions provoked Flint's intentional collision, which made Lida angry and frightened.

Flint's violation earned Gryffindor a free-kick at the goal post. Lida snatched the Quaffle again. She and Angelina cooperated tacitly. With their eyes on them, Leitlin passed the ball to Katie and scored.

Just when the Gryffindor team was in good shape, Lida suddenly saw Harry being thrown off by her own broom, she gestured to Angelina and Katie, and then rushed to Harry's vicinity, trying to help him .

Fred and George flew over too, but there was nothing they could do.Lida looked around, wanting to ask the professor for help, but saw Quirrell and Snape not far away were chanting something, then Snape's robe caught fire and knocked Quirrell down, Harry's broom returned to calm, Lida frowned, realizing that something was wrong, which one of them was targeting Harry?

Thankfully, Harry climbed onto the broom safely.Lida asked, "Harry, are you okay?" Harry nodded, and waved the red rope in his hand to her. Lida smiled at him, and then turned her attention back to the court, ready to kill all directions.

Five minutes later, Harry caught the Snitch, and Mrs Hooch declared the match over, with Gryffindor winning.Lida flew back to the ground, jumped off the broom, and hugged Harry tightly. "I almost thought you were going to fall out of the sky, Harry!"

Harry was obviously embarrassed, but he still put his arms around Lida gently.The Gryffindor Quidditch players also rushed down to hug them, everyone surrounded Harry, and Wood was the most excited, he shouted: "I knew it! I knew you could do it! "

Christmas is coming, Lida decided to stay in Hogwarts with the Weasley brothers. She originally wanted to take Harry back to her home for Christmas, but she was afraid that Harry would see Snape at her home. She was even more uncomfortable, and Beverly seemed to be busy with something. She had no problem with Lida staying at Hogwarts, and asked her to take care of herself and Harry.

One morning in mid-December, Lida was dragged into the snow by Fred and George for a snowball fight.They screamed and let the snowballs flying around hit each other. Sometimes they could not control well, and they would always hit the passing students, so more and more people joined them in the snow battle.Lida, back to back with Fred and George, fought back against the crowd that was falling on them.

Fred and George seemed to be at ease. They were very good at creating chaos. While fighting back, they did not forget to let a few enchanted snowballs chase Professor Quirrell for a few laps, causing everyone to stop temporarily Snowball, pointing at Professor Quirrell and laughing.

Before the professor came to rescue them, Lida dragged them away and saved them from labor services.

After the holiday, Lida nestled on the warm sofa in the common room, reading a thick book of "History of the Ancient Magic Circle". Fred and George were beside her discussing their pranks. Not far away were Ron and Harry is playing wizard chess.Although there are a lot fewer people, there is no such thing as quietness at all.

Early the next morning, before Lida got up, she was woken up by knocking on the door.Too lazy to get up, she picked up her wand and waved it, and the twins rushed in.They should really be thankful that Angelina and Katie have gone home, otherwise, with Angelina's temper, they would have to peel off their skins if they didn't die.

Lida was not fully awake yet, she rubbed herself deep into the quilt.Fred shook her. "Wake up! Let's open presents together in the common room."

Lida was very angry: "Don't get up! Also, can you treat me like a girl!"

George tried to pull her up: "Come on, we have a lot of activities to do during the holidays!"

With a jerk, Lida rolled over and threw the quilt over George, laying on top of him with Fred, deaf to his howling.After arguing for a while, Lida rushed into Harry Ron's room together with the twins in her pajamas.Unfortunately, Harry was already awake, and he was unwrapping presents.

Seeing Lida coming, Harry blushed excitedly and called her: "Hey, Lida!" Lida sat beside him with a smile and asked, "Harry, did you get my present?"

"Received, I like it very much!" His eyes were shining, but he felt lost again in a blink of an eye, looking a little guilty: "I'm sorry, I didn't prepare a gift for you."

Lida moved her face closer: "You can give me a kiss as a gift." Harry blushed, but Lida didn't force him, and gently hugged him, saying, "It's also Christmas at Goldstein's house." Morning routine, Merry Christmas, Harry!" Then she kissed him on the forehead, feeling that he was about to overflow with embarrassment, Lida smiled happily, little Harry is so cute, he should come to be her brother sooner .But for some reason, Lida felt that Fred looked a little unhappy.

George held a sweater in his hand and exclaimed, "Look! Mom's sweater looks so much better this year!" Fred said, "Aunt Beverly asked her to help make clothes this year." Lida and Harry also had a sweater of the same style, also given by Mrs. Weasley, who explained to Harry: "Yes, my mother is a costume designer in the Muggle world, but she also makes it for wizards occasionally. What did you get for Christmas?"

Harry took out a white shoe box and said, "She gave me a pair of shoes." Lida glanced at it and said, "She made it herself too. She always likes to give shoes at Christmas. She said it meant Yu said that the road ahead will be easier in the coming year." Then she turned to the Weasley brothers and said, "I think she gave you shoes too?"

Fred showed her the shoes he was wearing: "It seems that our mother always likes to give all the children the same things." Lida shrugged: "I can guarantee that you will get the same things next year."
