No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 833 Abduction
The next morning, Ou Mengmeng, Draco, Harry, and Hermione went through the fireplace to Bathilda's house in Godric's Hollow.
This place is not as dirty and disgusting as described in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. On the contrary, it is small and exquisite. The living room is full of books. The windows are open, and the sunlight from the valley shines in.
An old woman sat on the sofa in front of the window, wearing a moth-eaten shawl, but she didn't smell like an old woman. Ou Mengmeng had applied to Hogwarts for a house elf to help her with her daily life.
A historian of the magic world cannot be left to fend for herself. Her books are their textbooks. Hogwarts has an obligation to take care of her in every aspect. Lucius Smalfoy also supported this in the school board. Because it really doesn't cost much. The old lady has money, but no one takes care of her.
The old lady is in good spirits now. When she saw Ou Mengmeng, she opened her arms and said, "Dear, why did you think of coming to see me?"
"Granny Bathilda, this is Harry, Harry Potter. He's here to see you." Ou Mengmeng pulled Harry over and said softly.
"Harry! You look so much like your father. Of course, you were very cute when you were a child." The old lady raised her head and looked at Harry for a long time, then pointed to the cabinet where the photos were placed, "There is a photo of your family there."
Harry looked back and saw his parents in the yard in the distance, holding him on a toy magic broom. The family looked very happy. That's right, the whole family of three was in the photo, so there had to be someone taking the photo, so the neighbor Bathilda was just the right person.
"Your parents said that they needed to take a photo for... the person who gave you the toy broom. So I took two." Old Mrs. Bathilda smiled and said in a hoarse voice.
Ou Mengmeng recalled that it seemed to be a gift from Sirius. He volunteered to be little Harry's godfather and gave him a toy magic broom. He thought James was a great seeker, and Harry must be...
But the old lady hid Sirius' name at this time. I guess she didn't want to mention it! After all, Harry was born here. With Lily's enthusiasm, the relationship between the two families was very good at that time, so she didn't want to mention it.
"Granny Bathilda, I brought Harry back just to see his parents' graves and their old house."
"James and Lily will be very happy that their son has grown up." Bathilda sighed, "Old house... what's there to see in an old house."
"You have been studying history all your life, but in fact you are just trying to get to the bottom of things. So are we. Everyone is full of imagination about where they came from and why they are going. The pursuit makes us wiser and braver." Ou Mengmeng said softly.
"Well said, little Penny, you will be a great scholar." Bathilda held Ou Mengmeng's hand with her dry hands, her face full of joy.
"So do you know the history of the Potter family?" Ou Mengmeng asked hurriedly.
"I'm sorry, although the Potter family is one of the twenty-eight families, I have to say that there is not much information about them. The most famous one is your father, James Potter. But their family has been Gryffindors for generations, full of foolish courage and optimism." The old lady shook her head. It was really a headache that their family were all stupid lions for generations!
Harry nodded, foolish courage, and optimism. Alas! "Well, besides this house, does the Potter family have any other souvenirs?" Ou Mengmeng asked in a low voice.
Bathilda was also stunned. As old-fashioned people, they were always ashamed to talk about money. This was not important to them.
"Please think about it carefully!" Ou Mengmeng pulled her hand and acted coquettishly.
"I really don't know. They always came to see me, and I hardly went out at that time." Bathilda still spoke the truth. In fact, she doesn't go out now. She only walks in her own small yard. This is the residence of half-wizards. The old lady is too lazy to hide herself. So she lives a secluded life.
"That's right. Okay, I've agreed with Professor McGonagall that you should stay in Hogsmeade for a while and tell us about the history of magic. I'm not saying that the ghost professor is bad, but I think you should at least tell the freshmen in our grade about the history of magic in your mind." Ou Mengmeng hurriedly said another thing.
"Honey, I'm too old." The old lady said while holding Ou Mengmeng's hand.
"Are you older than Professor Ghost?" Ou Mengmeng asked back?
The old lady was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "The fact is, yes. The ghost professor stopped at that moment, and I continued to age."
"See? You can argue with me like this, you are discussing with me. In fact, this is the most interesting part of history. There are a hundred Hamlets in the minds of a hundred people, and the same is true for history. So you don't want to talk to the eleven-year-old wizards about history in their minds?" Ou Mengmeng asked with a smile.
Ou Mengmeng was going to take Bathilda away anyway, because the wizarding world had ceased to be peaceful since the moment Harry Potter returned. Old lady Bathilda was also a fearless victim. Her death was actually a bit meaningless. She was eaten by a giant snake to lure Harry to come, and then what? Reveal information? The main thing is, the old lady didn't have much information?
Ou Mengmeng thinks that Bathilda has two important missions in the plot. First, she was eaten by a giant snake, which is a meaningless death. Second, she was fed a truth serum by a tabloid reporter, who then said that her nephew, the former first-generation evil demon, met Dumbledore here, and they were inseparable, which hinted at something between the first-generation demon and Dumbledore, well, it's also called growing pains. Then it became material, and the illegal Animagus tabloid paparazzi Miss Ladybug made up a book.
The consequence was that Dumbledore was successfully brought down from the altar, and Ou Mengmeng felt that it was not worthy of the old lady's lifelong reputation, which was ruined by this person.
Ou Mengmeng didn't have any bad feelings towards this paparazzi. She really liked his feather pen! It was a pen with thoughts. It could do whatever you said. This made Ou Mengmeng very interested. It was obviously an amazing alchemy work.
So one day of a certain year and month, at a very news point, Ou Mengmeng used the method of Miss Know-It-All Hermione to catch the ladybug, and then out of the sense of responsibility of a little wizard, she sent it to the Ministry of Magic, had the illegal Animagus legally registered, and then as a "thank you" from Miss Ladybug, she got the pen.
Obviously, in recent years, this lady's writing style has become much more "plain". Mainly because, due to magical restrictions, she can't fly into the occasions she wants to enter.
But this can't stop this woman from abusing the truth serum. It's better to put the old lady in Hogsmeade Village, where there is an interception program to protect her. (End of this chapter)
