Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 430: Intent to Marry

“That's right, we can go to the shanty house!” Ivan said.

Ron is a lot easier to do in their home than in their own.

Ivan also wants to talk to Fred and George to further expand Weasley's joke product operations.

“Mrs. Mason wants the two of us to stay in your home until the end of the summer vacation.” Hermione whispered, blushing.

I don't know what my mother just said to him.

Ivan finds that Hermione today seems particularly prone to blush.

Looking at Hermione's rare expression of shyness, Ivan quickly guessed some of the content of their conversation.

It would appear that her mother was indeed very, very satisfied with Hermione and did not take into account the age of the two.

You know, in most parts of the UK, you can get married when you reach the age of 16 with parental consent.

In that case, Ivan and Hermione have less than three years to prepare well in advance...

Ivan felt nervous about marrying Hermione.

If he can, of course, he would like to marry Hermione, and there is no question about that.

But now is not the time to talk about these things...

Last Christmas in Diagonal Alley, the atmosphere was so good, Ivan was going to ask for a relationship, but finally...

The two of them had no experience in this matter and were too shy.

The atmosphere in the room was subtle and Hedwig lowered his voice and stared at the two strange people in front of him.

And the piglet keeps screaming, and it wants something to eat as a reward for successfully delivering the letter.

“Well, we'd better get them two something to eat!” Evan said, "Be careful what you say," Don't worry, Hermione! I'll convince Mom that she likes you very much and can come anytime you want to come to my house as a guest. ”

He was afraid that Hermione would know what he had just thought of, that marriage or something was too far away.

“The last two weeks of our summer vacation, it's best to go to the shanty house. Ivan continued," In addition to the Quidditch World Cup, we're going to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Illnesses to see Sirius. No matter what you think, it's not easy to stay at home. ”

He turned around and wrote in a letter about the Weasley couple inviting them to their humble abode.

“By the way, we'd better ask Ron when they're going to pick up Harry!” Ivan wrote while saying, "The two of us could go to Harry's aunt and aunt's house, otherwise it would be too inconvenient. ”

..............................................................................

After Harry washed up, he went back to his house and asked Hedwig, who had just returned, to deliver the letter to Ivan.

Then he came downstairs with hope to the kitchen.

At this time, the three members of the Dusty family were already sitting at the table.

Harry walked in and sat down, and none of them looked up at him.

Uncle Vernon's big red face hid behind the Daily Mail that came in this morning, and Aunt Penny was cutting a grapefruit in four.

Her lips clasped, wrapping her long, big teeth.

Dali's gloomy face looks exhaled and seems to occupy more space than usual.

That's interesting, because he always fills one side of the square table all by himself.

Aunt Penny delivered a quarter of the unsweetened grapefruit to the reach plate and said with a trembling voice.

“Eat up, sweetheart. ”

Dali stared at her furiously, and his life had changed very painfully since he came home this summer and brought back his final report.

Uncle Vernon and Aunt Penny, as usual, found excuses for Daryl's poor academic performance.

Aunt Penny has always stressed that Dalí is a gifted child, only that the teachers do not understand him;

Uncle Vernon insisted that he didn't want his son to be a sissy nerd.

Teachers criticize Dulley for bullying students, and they pass along lightly.

He's a lively, loving child, but he can't even bear to hurt a fly!

Harry doubted that, but under the report sheet, there were a few words carefully written by school nurses.

Even Uncle Vernon and Aunt Penny couldn't find an excuse to cover it up.

Although Aunt Penny cried out that Dalí was only a bone skeleton, saying that he was overweight was only a temporary obesity in adolescence and that he was growing up and needed abundant food and nutrition.

But one fact that cannot be changed is that he can no longer find the pants he can wear in the school garment library.

Aunt Penny's eyes were always very acute when looking at fingerprints on a dusty wall or at the neighbors' advance, but she refused to see the fact that the school nurse had discovered that Dulley did not need any extra nourishment and that his head and weight were close to that of a young whale.

As a result, after endless tantrums, after an astonishing quarrel that almost toppled the floor of Harry's bedroom, and after Aunt Penny shed countless tears, a new dietary system began to be implemented.

The diet recipe sent by the Smarting School Nurse is posted on the fridge, and there's nothing on it for anything that Daryl likes, such as soda drinks, cakes, chocolate sugar, and hamburger steaks.

There are only fruits and vegetables in the recipe, and what Uncle Vernon calls “junk food."

To make Dalí feel better, Aunt Penny insisted that the whole family follow that recipe.

At this moment, she handed Harry a quarter of the grapefruit.

Harry noticed that his share was much smaller than Daryl's.

Aunt Penny seemed to think that the best way to cheer up Dali was to make sure he ate at least more than Harry did.

However, Aunt Penny did not know the secret hidden under that loose floor upstairs.

She had no idea Harry was on a diet.

When Harry heard the wind and learned they wanted him to live all summer on a carrot stick, he sent Hedwig a message to his friends.

They immediately responded positively to calls for assistance.

Ivan and Sirius couldn't help Harry because the adventure wasn't in England.

Hermione asked Hyde to bring Harry back a big box filled with sugar-free snacks.

Hagrid was passionate enough to fill a bag of his own cookies, and Harry didn't even touch them.

These burritos are harder than bricks, and he doesn't want to break his teeth.

Mrs. Weasley sent their owl Errol a giant piece of cake and meat pie of all flavors to Harry.

Poor Errol, getting old and out of strength, took a full five days off to relax after delivering these goods.

Later, on Harry's birthday, he received a total of six super big cakes.

Ivan, Ron, Hermione, Hagrid and Sirius gave it to him, and Ivan and Sirius ordered French-style cakes for Harry.

They were said to have been guests at the Busbaton Academy of Magic, and the cakes really came from France.

Throughout the summer, Harry was wondering what Boosbatons looked like.

He just saw a description of this school of magic in his textbook, alongside Hogwarts' three major European schools of magic.

I must say, these cakes are delicious, and so far Harry has three large pieces left to eat.

He looked forward to returning upstairs for a real breakfast and ate his grapefruit without a complaint.
