Chapter 813 Claim
"Dumbledore, I'm sorry. This child's mother died without claiming the inheritance, so the list of inheritance was given directly to her. So she thought that everyone was the same as the Devonte family." Old Foster hurriedly explained with a smile, then turned around and glared at his granddaughter a little sternly, "James is not so meticulous! Petunia, Dumbledore is the executor of the estate, do you understand?"

"I'm sorry, Professor Dumbledore. We didn't know you were the executor of the will. Harry and I went to see the vault together. There seemed to be a lot of gold Galleons in it, but Harry is still six years away from adulthood, and the money will become less and less. When he comes of age, the remaining money may not be enough for him to buy a small house to live in. So we want to know what his parents left for him? In this way, we can make appropriate plans for him." Ou Mengmeng apologized honestly. The ladder went down very smoothly, but she did not retreat. I want to know what else their family has. I don't recognize such a vault.

Then I also admired my grandfather very much. Look at this information. Eve is a member of the Order of the Phoenix. The old man said that she has not yet received the inheritance, and the inheritance was directly given to "Little Petunia". What does this express?
Eve died before she had the chance to collect the money. In fact, at that time, Eve was an adult, married, and had given birth to her. Even if she was killed soon after, wouldn't she have had time to deal with the property in a year or two?
From what she had seen, the Devonte family was very strict. For example, Evelyn was the last member of the Devonte family. Because her parents died before she reached adulthood, her property was sealed and there was no executor. Instead, it was strictly sealed according to the aristocratic sealing method of the magical world.

Even though Avril still lived at home, she could only use the manor and the family items in it, but could not touch them. Her expenses were also limited, so before Avril came of age, she had a small trust fund-like fund every month, which was used to pay her living expenses from the family fund. This ensured that Avril would not become a spendthrift before she matured.

However, the wizarding world considers people to be adults at the age of seventeen. She heard from her grandfather that it was her father who suggested it. Obviously, Foster Jr. was a little concerned about his fiancée having a large inheritance. Plus, at that time, the situation was tense, so he suggested that his fiancée hide the ancestral home. To save trouble! And at that time, she did not go through the inheritance procedures, for the same reason as above. The situation was tense, and she was not without money. She waited until everything was settled before going through the procedures. It would be good to have living expenses.

Eve was also raised in pampered and did not suffer much, they were truly in love, so she listened to her fiancé's advice. Now, he also told Dumbledore that Eve had no money, so she was unable to vigorously support the Order of the Phoenix at that time.

As for the second point he emphasized, Dumbledore was the executor of the estate. This was said to Ou Mengmeng and Harry. He told them that before Harry Potter came of age, he could decide how to use the estate. And what Harry could get was decided by Dumbledore, and it was not illegal. So, don't wrongly accuse someone.

"James and Lily's house was blown up by a mysterious person, and now it has become a landscape for people to visit. Let people know the bravery of his parents and the cruelty of the mysterious person. As for the rest..." Dumbledore was actually not very thoughtful when it came to finances, and he didn't understand what old Foster meant at all. He was a man with great love in his heart, and he really had no dust in his eyes. He had never thought about discussing money before. When he heard "little Petunia" talking about Harry's house, he subconsciously talked about their house. Just like when he handed Harry to Petunia Dursley, he didn't think about giving money. He felt that this was not a matter of money.

"So, let's go find old Potter's original will. I believe there will be a detailed list in it, so that we can claim compensation from the Ministry of Magic as much as possible." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly. She must tell the old man that we are not targeting you, we want to make trouble for the Ministry of Magic.

"Claim?" Dumbledore was dumbfounded again. What does this have to do with the Ministry of Magic?

"Yes, then, James and his wife Potter are heroes, right? Didn't they do their best to kill the You-Know-Who? Like my mother, she has the Merlin Medal, so do James and his wife have it too? And they both sacrificed their lives, so shouldn't the Ministry of Magic give Harry a pension? His parents died, and he is a dependent, so in this case, does he belong to the Ministry of Magic? Secondly, they occupied the Potter family's old house as a tourist attraction, don't they have to compensate them? Even if there is no ticket, it is the Ministry of Magic's place, so shouldn't they give the Potter family a similar property?"
Third, the house was blown up, but there were other things in the house, right? Who took them away? Or was it destroyed in the explosion? There must be an explanation. For example, if it was destroyed in the explosion, then, can we use part of the Death Eaters' property to compensate the victims of the war? "Ou Mengmeng explained the reason to him very seriously, and after finishing, he looked at Dumbledore and asked very earnestly, "Don't you think so?"

You know, the Potter family is the direct descendant of the Deathly Hallows, and the family that survives in the fairy tales of the wizarding world. In addition to the priceless invisibility cloak, what other things are there? Even the books left by each generation are extremely important treasures, right? And you gave me a small mountain of gold? Isn't this a bit unreasonable? The point is, she grasped her grandfather's meaning, I don't ask you for money, I ask the Ministry of Magic.

Dumbledore was also stunned. He wondered if he had come to the wrong place. He wondered if he had lived in vain. Why couldn't he understand what this person said? He looked at old Foster in bewilderment.

Old Foster wanted to stay away from her because her granddaughter would get excited when she did the accounts, and most people couldn't argue with her. Mainly, he once again doubted his life, why was his daughter-in-law so indifferent to money, but how could she calculate to the point of collapse when it came to his granddaughter?
"By the way, Grandpa, besides the Merlin Medal, did they give us any material rewards?" Ou Mengmeng also remembered that she was also a war orphan, so it made no difference whether she had a father or not. So it would be better to ask for compensation from the state.

"My dear, I can support you." Old Foster was terrified and quickly held down his granddaughter. He felt that those shameless people in the Ministry of Magic would definitely ignore her.

Dumbledore was stunned. Now he felt that maybe they were right not to look for him. Now he didn't understand what Ou Mengmeng was talking about. So, she not only wanted to ask for state compensation for Harry, but also for herself? And he couldn't refute it, because you said that this is a hero of the wizarding world and has been written into the history of magic. So I asked you for compensation. This is not too much, right?

What can old Foster do? He can only smile at the old man. He is determined not to say anything. He is a well-known honest man. It is not easy for him to raise his granddaughter alone!
Dumbledore gave up, sat for a while, and then left. Mainly because it seemed that there was nothing more to talk about. Maybe he was too upset and forgot that he wanted Harry to go to the Weasleys' house.

After Dumbledore left, old Foster tapped Petunia lightly and left with his hands behind his back.

Don't worry, I don't like Dumbledore, but I respect him. I also respect the young people in the Order of the Phoenix, who are really at the forefront. I like to use the rules reasonably.
