No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 831 Big Change

So the flying car circled in the sky for a week, allowing Harry and his friends to see that there were already large communities in the valley below. Harry and Hermione did not think too much about it, thinking that this was the right thing to do. And every time, Ou Mengmeng and Draco were filled with pride, as this was the achievement of their two families.

They stopped at Foster's large house, where Augusta and Neville stood in the yard. They came in advance to help settle in. Ou Mengmeng rushed over and hugged the skinny old lady, "Grandma Augusta, it's great to have you here."

Neville stood behind his grandmother with a puffy face, then sighed softly.

Neville's house is located in the wasteland across the valley, on the edge of this residential area. They were the first to order it, and at Ou Mengmeng's suggestion, they placed it next to Professor Sprout's house. The place is open, and the most important thing is that the neighbor is Professor Sprout.

Neville's grandmother, Augusta Longbottom, has actually been taken by Ou Mengmeng to see professional doctors in the Muggle world since Neville was corrected in the Muggle world in the past few years, and not just one.

Augusta was only in her forties at the time, not a born old lady, but her life was too sad, so she had to become tough and mean.

You have to know that Augusta's branch is an important branch of the Longbottom family. Don't think that there is no internal fighting in the magic world. Before, her son and daughter-in-law got into trouble and her husband passed away. She was struggling to support her only grandson alone. At first, she doubted whether she could support it. She was also worried that if she was gone, Neville might not even be able to protect himself.

Of course, she once had expectations for Neville. This is what Professor McGonagall said to Neville in the original book, "Your grandmother should be proud of the grandson she has now, not the grandson she imagined!"

Ou Mengmeng has a solution for parents who have unnecessary expectations of their children. In recent years, the medical knowledge of the Muggle world has been enough to make the old lady understand that you want a grandson, or a grandson who is driven crazy. In the end, a doctor told the old lady that it was not about letting go of her grandson, but letting go of herself. Isn't it good to be happy?
Of course, the old lady was not so easily persuaded, especially when the other party was a doctor from the Muggle world, just a bunch of Muggles. However, Ou Mengmeng did not care, and just asked the old lady to give her two years. Just two years, anyway, the pure-blooded kids in the magic world were staying at home, and Neville could waste two years. Professor McGonagall stood firmly behind Ou Mengmeng that time, forcing her old friend Augusta to agree.

At that time, Neville was still cute and silly, but he had a bad memory and often forgot what he had forgotten.

Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape had studied this. He must have seen his parents being tortured by Bella Black when he was a child, and was frightened. Then, the idiots in the Ministry of Magic cast a forgetfulness spell on him. If a professional doctor were to do it, it might be better. But obviously, the damage was too great.

From this, we can see that Neville has a good foundation, so he can slowly grow into the second president of the determined and brave "Dumbledore's Army" and lead the Hogwarts Guard Station.

Ou Mengmeng knew that there was nothing wrong with his brain, he just lacked confidence, and that he would be fine with proper training. Didn't he see that as long as he left the oppressive family, he would slowly get better in Hogwarts. She just wanted to make the training more professional.

Augusta actually read all the Muggle books that Ou Mengmeng brought back. There are only a few people in the magic world, just like a small village in the mountains without electricity or internet. There are almost no cases like Neville. Even if there are, people will just say they are stupid, and even use extreme means to bury them. But the Muggle world has become a system. There are more than 6 billion people in the world, and there are really a lot of them. The old lady read the book and dared not say anything. She only has this one grandson, and she can't afford to gamble.

So the old lady decided to let Neville go, and also let herself go. As a result, after they let each other go, Neville seemed much smarter, and slowly, his memory caught up. She knew that the Muggle world had professional and systematic methods for dealing with such dolls.

Over the years, Neville has been getting better and better, and has shown an interest in herbology. The old lady also let him grow it for fun at home. When she learned that the Fosters were building a house in Hogsmeade Village, she was tempted. The old lady was also rich, and she thought about whether she should build another one here. After the Ministry of Magic's large-scale development plan for Hogsmeade Village, the old lady decided on a house without a second thought. Ou Mengmeng arranged for them to be neighbors with Professor Sprout. In the past two years, Neville has been as happy as a fat mouse. Professor Sprout also liked Neville very much, and the two really became close master and apprentice.

Seeing "Little Petunia" coaxing the old lady like this, how could Neville not sigh? Really, he and Draco had watched this woman fooling adults to achieve her own goals since they were young. After sighing, all that was left was admiration. She was the only one who could be so intimate with her grandmother.

Draco went over and put his arm around Neville's shoulders, "How was your holiday? Why didn't you go to Diagon Alley?"

"I was taken to training by Uncle Argyle. He said I wasn't agile enough." Neville said with a bitter face, "I was supposed to go to the Forbidden Forest with Professor Sprout to collect herbs."

"Poor little ones, let me introduce you, this is Harry and Hermione, we are freshmen in the same grade, they both grew up in the Muggle world, so we are taking them to familiarize themselves with the wizarding world." Draco ignored Ou Mengmeng who was hugging old lady Augusta, and pulled Harry and Hermione to introduce them, "This is Neville Longbottom, our new classmate."

Harry was immediately moved when he heard the name, and he went forward and hugged him gently.

Neville was a little surprised; he was not used to such intimacy.

"Harry Potter!" Harry stretched out his right hand to Neville, firmly and sincerely.

"Neville Longbottom." Neville understood that he, like himself and "Little Petunia", was one of the unlucky "July" in the wizarding world. He immediately shook hands with him and hugged him. An unbreakable bond was established without further explanation.

"Augusta, thank you so much!" Old Foster also came over, took off his hat and thanked Augusta.

"I didn't help much!" Augusta returned the half-salute and looked back down the mountain. "I should still be your neighbor."

At this time, the lights were just coming on, and there were twinkling candlelights in the valley. Although he could not hear any noise, he could see that the commercial street was very lively. Augusta now felt that it was right to live in the mountains, as it was too noisy at the foot of the mountain.

Even though, when it was built, the commercial area and the residential area were separated, one-third of the families in the wizarding world live here, and almost half of the students in Hogwarts live here. Just imagine how noisy those students are, it's comparable to that of Hogwarts.

Wuhan was very stuffy today, with low air pressure, but in the afternoon, the sun suddenly came out. What kind of crazy weather is this!
