No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 869 As long as it's not you
Chapter 869 As long as it's not you
"You are looking after the Black family's house. Is there anything you need? Is it too much trouble to maintain an old house?" Ou Mengmeng suddenly thought of the first description of Number 12 Grimmauld Place in the book.
[A tattered door appeared out of nowhere between No. 11 and No. 13, followed by dirty walls and gloomy windows. It looked like an extra house had suddenly expanded and squeezed out everything on both sides;
The broken stone steps, the black paint on the door was peeling and covered with scratches. The silver door knocker was in the shape of a large coiled snake. There was no keyhole on the door, nor a mailbox. I stepped over the threshold and walked into the almost dark hallway. What I smelled was a damp, gray smell, and a sweet rotten smell. This place gave people the feeling of an abandoned empty house. 】
Even if it wasn't Harry's property, Ou Mengmeng didn't want the house to become that shabby. This is a house with a silver door knocker!
"No!" As expected, Kechery said immediately, his face full of hatred.
Kechery had taken care of the brothers and sisters since they were young, and he knew Sirius too well. He knew that if he gave the house to him, it would be ruined. So he didn't bother to buy it, and just gave up. Yes, he would rather destroy it than give it to Sirius.
"My dear, Mr. Harry Potter is Sirius' godson. How about you meet him? He is the little master after all." Ou Mengmeng actively gave him advice. With Sirius's character, he would give his property to Harry no matter what, whether it was out of apology to James, guilt towards Harry, or the relationship of godson. So far, there is no possibility of Sirius being released. Isn't it natural for him to transfer his things to his godson?
"Are you serious?" Kechery's eyes suddenly widened like light bulbs. He was not stupid, and he immediately thought of this. If Sirius couldn't come out, shouldn't we designate an heir? No matter who it is, it must be better than Sirius.
"It seems so. Why don't you go ask Sirius if you can help take care of Harry." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly. She remembered that relatives were allowed to visit Azkaban. If the house was handed over to Harry now, it could still be saved. The main thing was that she didn't want the house to be used as an office for the Order of the Phoenix. The main thing was that they were still raising thieves. Could you be more reliable when recruiting people?
"But, but..." The elf is not a fool and does not know anything. He does not mind having a little master, but he is afraid that others will mind.
"Sirius betrayed James and his wife?" Ou Mengmeng knew what he wanted to say. "My dear, I don't believe this. Believe me, this must not be true. So ask Mrs. Malfoy to take you to visit Sirius and tell him about Harry. I believe he will hand over the house to Harry. In this way, you will have a new little master. How about it?"
"Master Harry is very respectable. He and Master Draco are both Slyklin students. They are very gentle and kind." Dobby said hurriedly to Kechery.
"You can stay at our house for a few days. We will live together before school starts. You can see him with your own eyes!" Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly, feeling secretly proud that she had finally fooled an elf.
Kechery nodded. Mainly, knowing that Harry was a Slytherin student was a huge plus for him. In Kechery's opinion, as long as it wasn't Sirius, anyone would be fine.
Before school started, Ou Mengmeng finally lived a life of luxury. The three of them got along very well with Kecheli, and she taught him how to cook various dishes.
Kechery was originally an amazing professional noble butler. With Ou Mengmeng's sweet talk, he was coaxed into a happy mood, without any of the evil spirits in the original book. Now even Hermione thinks that the elf is too capable. Of course, she heard that the greatest honor of an elf is to cut off a head, and she was going crazy, but now she has been taught well by Ou Mengmeng and knows that everyone has their own values. They have their own way of realizing their own values, and there is no absolute right or wrong. You can't impose your own values on others.
Harry didn't know what Ou Mengmeng wanted to do, he just thought Kechery was borrowed by Ou Mengmeng, so he was very gentle and polite to Kechery. He would not happily accept Kechery's care like Ou Mengmeng did, and he also had his own things to do, so in Kechery's view, Harry was an excellent candidate for successor.
After sending them off to school, Kechery went to see Madam Narcissa Malfoy.
Narcissa and Bella are the daughters of the third branch of the Black family and are Sirius's cousins. The second branch of the Black family is the uncle who gave Sirius the inheritance in the book. He had no offspring and it was not in line with the family's philosophy, so he gave all the property to Sirius. Sirius's family is the eldest branch, so No. 12 Grimmauld Place is considered the ancestral home of the Black family and fell into the hands of the eldest branch. Although it is not as vast as Malfoy Manor, think about the location! It is on the edge of the square, a five-story western-style building.
Kechery and Narcissa Malfoy discussed for a long time. Narcissa also knew that Sirius would never give his property to them and her sisters. She was also very attached to the ancestral home where she grew up and could not bear to see it abandoned.
She and her husband didn't actually believe that Sirius was a spy for the You-Know-Who, but seeing that he didn't defend himself, they were very suspicious. If he made a will and gave his property to Dumbledore, Narcissa would be furious. Basically, she and Kechery agreed now, as long as it wasn't Sirius, anyone would do.
So he applied for a visit. After all, if Harry really controlled the Black family now, at least it would not be handed over to Dumbledore.
With Lucius and Minister Fudge, Narcissa easily got visitation rights. When she saw the dejected Sirius, Narcissa shed tears. After all, they grew up together.
Of course, once Sirius raised his eyes, Narcissa didn't want to pay attention to him. With a dark face, she handed over a photo: "This is Harry Potter, he was a classmate and roommate of Draco."
Originally Sirius didn't want to see his cousin, but the guard said that his cousin brought a photo of Harry Potter, so he reluctantly came out to take a look.
Narcissa was not stupid. She gave Harry a photo of himself. Sirius would not believe it. She would come to him for Harry, even if she did not believe it. The Blacks were not such bad people. But if she said that Harry was a Slyklin and was good friends with Draco, Sirius would probably rebel. He hated that his family was full of Slyklins, and what he was most proud of was that he broke the family tradition and became a lion.
So when she asked her son for a photo, she specifically asked for a group photo of the four of them, with "Little Petunia" as the main subject. So at this point, the four of them were actually taking a photo when they were playing in the Muggle world. Four neatly-knit children, with a picnic table in the middle, and a magic camera was used, and the four of them were smiling brightly.
Why haven't you talked about the plot recently? What do you think of the plot? I'm so anxious without any discussion.
