No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 816 Generosity
"So do you think it was Professor Dumbledore who took it away?" Harry remained calm after hearing Ou Mengmeng's words. He picked up the napkin and gently pressed it on his lips, then looked at the Foster grandparents.
It must be said that in Hogwarts, he only knew Hagrid. He really had no feelings for Dumbledore, and he did not trust the old man. And what "Little Petunia" said about the journey to find his roots made him feel so right. This was very important. He had heard a lot of stories about his parents. Now he also wanted to know the inheritance of his family. But he was not stupid. Now Mr. Foster and "Little Petunia" actually emphasized that the list of his grandfather and what he got should be very different.
"No, of course not. I should say that your father is a very generous boy! Very generous. During the Order of the Phoenix, he and... were the main sponsors and fully supported the resistance movement. Professor Dumbledore is an old man with a big picture. At that time, people died every day. Dumbledore would never covet your family's wealth, but only for greater interests." Old Foster hesitated and said softly. In the middle, he even vaguely mentioned a name, and the three children did not ask, which also showed that Harry was educated very successfully during this period.
Old Foster also sighed a little. The Order of the Phoenix was a very loose organization, but no matter how loose an organization was, it still needed money to operate. At that time, his son and daughter-in-law were also members of the Order of the Phoenix. His daughter-in-law, Eve, also donated some of the money she had saved for many years. After Eve died, when they sorted out the finances, Eve was not a spendthrift, so looking at the accounts, several large expenditures in those years should have been given to the Order of the Phoenix.
But the main recipients of the money were James Potter and Sirius. James had no one to take care of him because his parents had both passed away, and Sirius invested all the small inheritance he inherited from his uncle after being kicked out of the house. I didn't think there was anything wrong with what James and his wife and Sirius did before, but when I looked at Harry, I thought they were two fools.
You have to know that Eve didn't inherit any property, so all she could use was her living expenses in her little stash. This was the amount of money that the estate stipulated for her to receive every month. It was more than the average person, but no matter how much it was, it was just pocket money. But these two really abandoned their homes and businesses. It's not entirely true to say that they were wrong. After all, if they hadn't abandoned their homes and businesses, there wouldn't be the present. It just made Harry suffer. However, an idea flashed in old Foster's mind, but the idea only lasted for a moment and then disappeared.
"So I'm asking about the real estate. It's useless for the Order of the Phoenix to have these real estates. They won't let Mr. James Potter sell them because they still have that money in their vaults. So, what we are investigating is which other real estates belong to the Potter family." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly.
She said she would not pursue him, but in fact, she knew that she could not get him back. Could she sue Dumbledore? There was the first generation of the Great Demon behind him. He did not come out because he did not want to come out. If something really happened, who would be responsible if he led people out? There was also the Order of the Phoenix, which had her relatives and friends. She did not dare to offend them, so she could still distinguish between friends and enemies.
"We've been to their old house, but you forgot. There's nothing left there." Old Foster said helplessly.
"I know. That's why this lawsuit is worth filing! We can go to Godric's Hollow when we have time. Your parents' graves are there. To be honest, the first thing I should do when you return to the wizarding world is to take you there. There is also Grandma Bathilda, the author of History of Magic. She is your neighbor. I heard that you often went to their house when you were little." Petunia smiled at Harry. "Granny Bathilda knows exactly what you have at home, so let's take some time to go there. If anything is lost, the Ministry of Magic will naturally have to compensate. This is a war loss."
Ou Mengmeng also found something very strange. Harry Potter missed his parents so much and was proud of them, but why did he never visit his parents' former residence after returning to the wizarding world? He never visited his parents' graves? Don't say that the British don't have this custom. They put cemeteries in churches, and they have cemetery culture, and mourning is part of their daily lives.
So, why didn't Dumbledore and his people think of taking Harry to see his parents' cemetery and former residence? Let him at least give his parents a bouquet of flowers and tell them that he has returned. By the way, learn about the short happy time he had with his parents after he was born? This was not a difficult thing to do. Why did he and his friends have to go to his parents' cemetery for the first time when they were chasing the noseless monster Horcrux? Ou Mengmeng couldn't help but think darkly, maybe they had never thought about visiting the graves, so naturally they didn't think of taking Harry there. Thinking this way, it is hard not to feel chilled, but think about it again, leaving the child in the Muggle world for ten years, and not even saying he would go to see him, so it's not strange that he didn't visit the graves for ten years.
So she doesn't expect anything from the adult world of the wizarding world anymore. That's why she has to get her property back now. The Ministry of Magic can still give out something now. In two years, there will really be nothing left, and it will just go to waste.
"Thank you!" Harry smiled bitterly. As expected, when he regained his senses, he realized that it was more important for his parents to resist the movement. Of course, it could also be understood that because he was a July boy and his mother was a Muggle wizard, if they didn't resist, they would die. So they were not wrong, and it was his fault?
Harry in the book rushed into the wizarding world when he knew nothing. Then, he was immediately placed on the position of savior, which gave him the illusion that the world could not be established without him.
And now, silly Hagrid handed Harry to Ou Mengmeng, but Ou Mengmeng was not Hagrid. He said nothing and put the real world in front of Harry and tore everything apart. Now Harry was really disgusted with the title of his so-called savior.
Ou Mengmeng also took him to see the Longbottoms, the parents of their soon-to-be classmate Neville. Ou Mengmeng couldn't reveal that Professor Snape was a double agent at this time. Before the noseless monster completely disappeared, if there was a loyal Death Eater among the hidden Death Eaters, she couldn't harm Professor Snape. All she could do was tell Harry about the legend of the July Child's prophecy.
That prophecy was actually quite widespread. All the children born in July were picked out, and Penny was a girl, but Eve was also killed. In fact, Penny was by Eve's side at the time. If Little Foster had taken Penny away, he would not have lost Eve. If not for this, Little Foster would not have been unable to face and forgive himself and face Penny.
The Longbottoms, the righteous Aurors, were tortured to the point of going crazy, and Neville was knocked unconscious, which was the reason for his poor learning ability later on. Based on these circumstances, the mysterious man would never let go of the July baby, and would kill it no matter it was a boy or a girl.
Especially for someone like Lily Potter, who was a Muggle wizard. In that era, she was called a thief and someone who was not worthy of learning magic. So at that time, combined with what Dumbledore said in his letter to Harry, Harry was placed in his aunt's house because her mother's love spell had a blood bond. In his aunt's house, because of the blood relationship, Harry could be effectively hidden and protected. After all, at that time, the Death Eaters had not been caught yet.
So now Harry is very clear that the death of his parents is inevitable, because so many people died. Even if someone tells him in the future that Snape killed his parents, he can analyze the problem rationally. Of course, although Harry is no longer the cute little boy in the movie, he is a little melancholy boy. (End of this chapter)
