No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 845 About Prophecy
In fact, Dumbledore had been observing "Little Petunia" for some time. Everyone thought that "Little Petunia" was a lively and lovely girl who seemed to have endless energy since she was a child.

However, she took Neville and Draco to the Muggle world to study when she was five years old. Dumbledore felt uneasy when he knew about this. He lost his magic power because his sister was bullied by Muggle children and the magic riot occurred, and he became insane because of this. His father was imprisoned in Azkaban for revenge for his sister beating Muggle children. To be honest, Dumbledore did not like the Muggle world and Muggle wizards. Although he actually kept saying that Muggles should be protected.

He was deeply disturbed by the pure-bloods going to school in the Muggle world, so he tried to stop them, but failed because there was no wizard law that forbade wizard children to go to school in the Muggle world. And because of his status, he could not deliberately formulate a bill.

So over the years, he has been paying close attention to Penny and the others going to school with Muggles. Obviously, they have adapted well, and he had heard that the Longbottom children were a little stupid, but he hadn't heard of any problems.

Then, he heard that the Fosters seemed to take advantage of the off-season every year to travel, and they had traveled to many places in recent years, including the ancestral lands of the wizarding world and the Muggle world. It was obvious that the Fosters were living a good life. He thought it was okay, so he turned his attention elsewhere.

In fact, Dumbledore had sensed some subtle changes in the wizarding world, such as Lucius was no longer so annoying. Mainly, he seemed to be always busy.

Merlin's Order also voted in favor of the expansion of Hogsmeade. In Dumbledore's opinion, it was more of a safety consideration. He didn't believe that the mysterious man was dead, so he had been emphasizing safety over the years. Lucius' plan did not involve making money for his family. But it was much safer to gather everyone together than to live together in the Muggle world.

Moreover, these are all middle-class people in the wizarding world. There may be one or two remnants of the Death Eaters among them, but most of them are still very down-to-earth. It is actually very meaningful to have such a group of wizards living together to protect the magical world.

But he also noticed that these changes were more or less inextricably linked to "Little Penny". In fact, he didn't believe that this could be driven by a child, but he didn't dare to completely let go.

Moreover, he felt that "Little Petunia" did not want to have more contact with him. She had a vague resistance to him. When everyone was talking about the July child, the complete prophecy was known only to Dumbledore, except for the prophecy ball in the Ministry of Magic.

'The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies '

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord is approaching. Born into a family that has thrice defeated the Dark Lord. Born at the end of the seventh month. The Dark Lord marks him as his greatest rival, but he possesses a power the Dark Lord does not understand. One must die at the hands of the other, for both cannot live. Only one survives. The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born at the end of the seventh month."

Lily, Evelyn, and Alice (Neville's mother) are all the backbones of the Order of the Phoenix. Facing the pursuit of the mysterious man, the three of them escaped more than three times. So the three families were defeated three times.

Born in late July, all three of them agreed. But everyone actually only regarded Harry and Neville as the child of the prophecy, because everyone agreed that it was a boy. But Dumbledore knew that the prophecy never mentioned gender. "and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal" him in written English is used to refer to a person of unspecified gender; the second sentence 'but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not' he is used to refer to the one, whoever or anybody mentioned above or a person or animal of unspecified gender.
(Actually, it’s a bit far-fetched. It’s right to say that it’s a boy, and Penny is indeed not the chosen one. It’s just that because of Ou Mengmeng’s intrusion, things became a little out of control, so the old man had wild thoughts.)
Therefore, the mysterious man, who was careful and cautious, did not believe in the issue of gender, and he marked all three children born at the end of July.

Dumbledore knew that the You-Know-Who was most concerned about Lily Potter's child. Lily was a Muggle wizard, and the You-Know-Who advocated the supremacy of pure blood, but he himself was also half-blood. So he thought that Harry, who was also half-blood, might be his lifelong enemy! So Dumbledore only taught Lily the love spell to fight against the You-Know-Who.

As for Evelyn, because she was a daughter, everyone chose to forget about it. Dumbledore didn't care. After all, the Devonte family and the Foster family were still quite influential in the wizarding world. He felt that the You-Know-Who had a certain amount of jealousy and respect for these ancient families.

The disappearance of the mysterious man and the lightning scar on Harry Potter's forehead all showed that Dumbledore was right. As for sacrifice, it was inevitable. Wasn't the wizarding world peaceful for eleven years? So, in these years, apart from feeling that "Little Petunia" was a little restless, he didn't think much about it.

But now he began to feel uneasy. He took out his memory thread and put it into the meditation basin, and watched the prophecy over and over again. Yes, no one said that the child born at the end of July was a boy.

He began to recall the death of Evelyn. The Death Eaters found Evelyn, and Evelyn was obviously prepared, letting her husband hold their daughter. Originally, the three of them were going to escape together with a portkey, but the situation was urgent, and Evelyn pushed her husband onto the portkey, while she stayed behind to block the mysterious man.

Of the three children born in late July, only this girl was unharmed, and she still had a healthy father. Therefore, he never thought that this only girl would be the chosen one. But now, he found that it seemed that the uniqueness started from birth.

"Ms. Foster, have you sorted out the issue of Mr. Harry Potter's inheritance?" Dumbledore led Ou Mengmeng upstairs and personally poured her a cup of black tea.

Then, she saw Dumbledore pour half a cup of honey into the tea, and her hands were shaking a little when she took it. Um, did this person spend all his money on candy? Well, it doesn't matter. How can she refuse this cup of tea?
"Foster? Penny Devonte Foster?" A female oil painting in the office suddenly popped her head out.

"Yes, hello, my dear great-great-great-aunt! I have seen your portrait in St. Mungo's!" Ou Mengmeng immediately put down the cup, jumped off the chair, and bowed seriously to the portrait, looking very well-behaved.

"Oh my god, what a cute and beautiful child." Dai Lisi Devonte touched her chest, "I have to say, you are much better than your mother, who is a lawless bastard. Honey, tell me quickly, which college are you in?"

I had lunch with my old classmates at noon. The middle-aged people talked about health preservation. They talked about the rebelliousness of their children, which made me laugh to death.
