Chapter 97 The Gift of the Daoist Gate

The boat was flying slowly and fast in the sky, and the bow kept tilting slightly, as if it was really traveling on the water.

Zhang Xiao lay on the side of the boat and looked down curiously. The wind was howling, but the inside of the boat was quite quiet. Li Qingshu could even read a novel while kneading melon seeds.

Zhang Xiao suddenly remembered the dream that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, and turned around and shouted:
"Dad, didn't you say that Yu Jian's wind is too strong? Isn't there no wind now?"

Zhang Chengdao snorted: "How big is this ship, and how big is this sword?

You have to fly, be stable, and be fast, plus windproof, do you know how complicated it is.

The little space on the sword body is not enough, of course, if you get a flying sword the size of a door panel, I didn't say anything. "

Not only is the door panel so big, I also want to install a guardrail!

Zhang Xiao wisely ended the topic and looked at the scenery again.

The size of the UK is really not that big, and the straight-line distance from their Linlangtian villa to the Burrow in Devon is only about two hundred kilometers.

As the distance approached, Zhang Chengdao controlled the flying boat to slow down and prepare to land.

"I'll see Ottery-St. Catchpole, it should be soon."

I don't know where my father is positioned. When the flying boat descends to a certain height, I can already see a dark pattern composed of fields and clusters of trees.

In addition to this, there is a crooked building with four or five floors.

The flying boat slowly stopped at a height of about half a meter above the ground, and then landed little by little until it touched the ground.

Zhang Xiao got off the flying boat with his parents, and the Weasleys were already waiting at the gate.

Mr. Arthur Weasley was a thin man, a little bald, but the rest of his hair was as red as his children's.

He was wearing a straight ironed wizard robe, looking like he was trying hard to look more formal.

Mo Li was wearing a skirt, and the husband and wife showed the greatest sincerity to welcome Zhang Xiao's family.

Li Qingshu walked forward, holding her husband's arm and holding Zhang Xiao's hand.

"Mr. Arthur Weasley, Mrs. Molly, nice to meet you, thank you for your invitation."

Zhang Chengdao stretched out his hand, Arthur hurriedly held it, and said enthusiastically:

"You're welcome to come over, oh, what's that? Looks great, does it run on electricity?"

Arthur's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the flying boat, and he couldn't help asking.

The smile on Molly's face froze, and she pinched her husband hard.

"Ah! Cough cough, I mean welcome, please come in, we rarely have guests come to visit formally, it's a little rough."

This was the first time Zhang Xiao looked at The Burrow so closely.

It used to be what seemed to be a big stone pigsty, and rooms were added here and there, up to the height of several stories, crooked as if put together by magic.

There are four or five chimneys on the roof of the red house, and a sign that reads "The Burrow" is placed obliquely in front of the house.

Beside the gate lay some high-top boots, and a rusty cauldron.A few fat brown chickens were pecking in the yard.

Arthur rubbed his hands with some embarrassment. He was not good at dealing with people, so he still tried his best to introduce Zhang Xiao's family:

"The Burrow, at first it was just me and Molly Xiaoshu. Keke, and Molly's two-person cabin, but with the arrival of the children, we had to add more,

Apparently my wife and I lacked some architectural flair, so that's how it is.

Because it is so humble, we call it The Burrow. "

Arthur knew Zhang Chengdao's reputation, or this mysterious oriental aristocrat was a hot figure in the entire wizarding world.

Through him, many pure-blood families have made a lot of money!
This brought Mr. Zhang's reputation to a higher level, and Arthur had heard some rumors in the Ministry of Magic.

It is said that the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, is trying to get acquainted with this Mr. Zhang.

Because of his outstanding influence among purebloods and his wealth is incomparable.

But the strange thing is that this Mr. Zhang doesn't seem to be interested in the powerful Minister of Magic, otherwise he would have been a guest of the Minister.

To be honest, Arthur was also hesitant to invite Zhang's family over, but his wife's words reminded him.

"Arthur, we are only invited out of a parent's gratitude to Ron's good friend, not for anything else."

Until this time, Arthur finally felt a little embarrassed, because his home was too simple, and this Mr. Zhang had an extraordinary bearing, he should be like Malfoy, no, he was richer than Malfoy
"Mr. Arthur, Mrs. Mollie, this house is simply wonderful!"

Zhang Xiao's words interrupted Arthur's reverie, he was stunned for a moment, and asked a little at a loss:

"Huh? Kid, you mean... you like it here?"

Zhang Xiao smiled and nodded, just kidding, is there a hut that fits a child's reverie better than The Burrow?
"Yes, I can't wait to visit it, can I go in?"

"Of course, Ronnie is waiting for you inside, and Harry, he's just arrived too."

After getting permission, Zhang Xiao immediately trotted in, and soon Ron and Harry's happy shouts came from the room:

"Zhang, you're here!" "We've been waiting for you for a long time! I wanted to call you when I drove the car to save Harry."

Listening to the enthusiastic conversation of the children in the house, the four adults couldn't help but smile on their faces.

Zhang Chengdao took out the gift box from the Qiankun bag, and said with a smile:

"The boy is quite right, Mr Arthur, it is a very fine house.

There is a saying in China called 'Jiahe Wanshixing', which means that the harmony of the family will make everything positive.

A house full of affection is far more valuable than an empty mansion.

It's a little gift for a first-time guest. "

Arthur suddenly understood why his own children and Harry were able to become friends with this Slytherin boy.

With such parents, the children they teach will not be bad, right?
He took the gift box, opened it directly, and revealed the contents inside. He immediately showed a curious look, and asked with interest:
"Oh, this is...? It looks very special."

"This is an object of our oriental culture, commonly known as 'copybook', and ordinary people like it very much.

It is a picture written by my father himself.

The content is "

Zhang Chengdao paused, "There must be more celebrations in the family of good deeds!"

At that time, when Zhang Xiao knew about the gift prepared by her father, her jaw almost dropped in shock. This gift is too expensive!
But after thinking about it, I came back to my senses. For people who know how to do this, this copybook is indeed very precious, but for my family, it is just a piece of calligraphy written by my father (grandfather), which is not too precious. .

And it's really not realistic for you to ask Taoist to give away those tacky things, the copybook is just right.

Although Arthur didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, he was obviously very happy, or he was always optimistic.

He took out the copybook with great interest. Although he couldn't read it, he instinctively felt that it was not a cheap thing.

Of course, this simple wizard never cared about the price of the gift, even if he gave him a power strip, Arthur Weasley would be as happy as if he had received gold.

"Do Muggles like him too? That's wonderful.

I have a lot of Muggle gadgets like plugs ahem, I mean, welcome to the Burrow, come in! "

The two wives fully respected their husbands, and did not speak, but waited for their greetings to finish.

Under the guidance of Arthur and Molly, the two families walked towards the house together, and Arthur finally couldn't restrain his curiosity on the way.

Began to follow Zhang Chengdao enthusiastically to discuss the novel inventions of the Muggles, and the flying boat they took when they came.

".
So there are so many types of Muggle plugs?Does electricity have different voltages?

It's amazing how smart they are!
God!is that so?Boiler without electricity?Don't cars run on electricity?But I dismantled it, and there are wires inside! "

Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu looked at each other and smiled, they were indeed an interesting family.
