No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

It was summer vacation, and it was time for Harry to go home. This year, he wrote to his aunt regularly, of course, it was just routine work. This Christmas, he didn't go back, but just sent a letter and a gift. The gift was much more thoughtful, instead of asking Ou Mengmeng to help.

He was older now, and he knew that the relationships in Slykerin were not gained for nothing. He knew that since he knew that he had to keep in touch with them before the age of seventeen, why would he confront them?
Of course, Ou Mengmeng wanted to talk about Sirius's property during Christmas, but she missed it because of one thing or another. The main reason was that Ou Mengmeng didn't think it was a good time.

Mainly, she felt that Sirius was going to escape from prison, so why not respect the original novel! She firmly refused to admit it, and she didn't have the courage to tell Harry.

When the summer vacation came, she thought about it and decided to accompany Harry on the Hogwarts Express. The reason was that she had never ridden on the Hogwarts Express either. Old Foster really couldn't do anything with his granddaughter, so he just let her go.

But Ou Mengmeng said she wanted to live in Privet Drive for a while, and the old man refused to agree. First of all, even if she wanted to accompany Harry, it was really unnecessary. Secondly, they had plans for the summer vacation before, and the old man had talked to Faye about it. He couldn't just let his son and granddaughter never see each other again. If they continued like this, they would be hated. After all, little Petunia was thirteen years old! In a few years, she would be an adult, get married and have children, and there would be no chance for them to ease the tension between father and daughter.

However, after "Little Penny" said this, he wondered if she had noticed it and did it on purpose.

But in these years, old Foster really never won over "Little Petunia", and he couldn't rent a house in Privet Drive. So, he found an excuse to give the cat lady who was monitoring the Dursleys across the street an opportunity to travel, and then borrowed her house.

Ou Mengmeng took the cats to the veterinary hospital, where they were treated for their ailments. Then, a professional company was hired to do pest control and a thorough cleaning of the house. Old Foster thought it would be better to buy a new one. This house was really horrible.

Ou Mengmeng thought this was right. She had always felt that it was meaningless for Dumbledore to leave someone here. The main reason was that she did not play any protective role.

As for her love for cats, Ou Mengmeng doesn’t have that kind of love, but she respects every pet owner. But the question is, is your love within your means? Picking up food from the garbage dump for the cats to eat, and not giving them vaccinations, regular deworming and pest control. You can’t even guarantee regular bathing. So are you really raising these cats?

The main thing is, can she really love him? At this time, she felt that Mr. Fitch of Hogwarts was very good, and he truly loved his Mrs. Alice.

While cleaning up the house, the neighbors came over. They had thought of ways to get rid of this person before. She really brought down the house prices of the whole street by herself.

The house was being cleaned up now, and everyone was excited and busy, including Petunia Dursley, but she was also startled when she saw "Little Petunia".

"Ms. Foster?" Penny hurriedly grabbed Ou Mengmeng's hand.

"Aunt Petunia? Oh, oh, I almost forgot, you live on Privet Drive. Is Harry home now?" Ou Mengmeng acted as if she had suddenly realized something and pretended that she had come in by mistake.

"Why are you here?" Petunia remembered that she had never invited Harry's classmates to her home. She nodded silently, but still asked.

"Oh, this is the home of a distant relative of mine. We didn't have much contact before, but she recently won a big prize and is going on a trip, so she asked me to come and look at the house. But this house... Never mind, she's a relative after all, so I'll clean it up for her first, otherwise, she won't be able to live in it." Ou Mengmeng looked indescribable. Penny widened her eyes, "Your relative, she's also..."

Penny finally found the reason why the person was so weird. As expected, he was also from the wizarding world.

"She has no magic power, I'm sorry, because of this, she lives here, away from us." Ou Mengmeng sighed softly, "It's also my fault, we should have cared about her earlier."

"It's no use cleaning it up. When she comes back, everything will be back to the way it was before." Penny looked up at the sky. She thought they had bought it. She was so disappointed.

“Alas!” Ou Mengmeng nodded. Even in modern times, even elderly people with good conditions have houses full of garbage. After cleaning up the house, it returns to its original state within a few days. “Forget it, at least it was clean when I lived here.”

"Please invite your grandfather and you to my house for dinner tonight." Penny liked Ou Mengmeng very much. When she was at the old Foster family in London, she felt that this wizard family was not all crazy.

Moreover, Harry seemed much better this time when he came back. He was very organized in helping with housework. He usually worked quietly in his room. Sometimes Dudley would go to trouble him, but he would not say anything. He would make it clear that he could not use magic outside of school, so he could not perform magic tricks for him. However, he had magic toys that he could play with. He played wizard chess with Dudley, and the two of them were very happy.

Dali can play chess, but wizard chess is more interesting. Every day, the two of them would play a few games after dinner, and even Vernon would watch and have a lot of fun. Maybe that's why the atmosphere at home has improved a lot. Otherwise, Penny wouldn't have thought of inviting "Little Penny" and the others to dinner at home.

Ou Mengmeng quickly and enthusiastically agreed. She was just looking for an opportunity to visit, and now that she was invited, she naturally accepted it with pleasure.

In the evening, Old Foster and Ou Mengmeng went there in formal attire, and brought a bottle of red wine as a souvenir. Of course, they also brought a box of magic candies and magic cards for Dali.

How can we describe Dali? You can say he is selfish or domineering. After all, he is the only son of his parents and has been spoiled since childhood. Bullying Harry has become a habit for him, but it is not quite accurate to say he is bad.

In the original book, before Harry and the mysterious man had their final battle, he asked the Dursleys to hide. Dudley asked why Harry didn't leave. When he realized the seriousness of the problem, Dudley also wanted to protect Harry.

So he showed the Chocolate Frog to Dali and helped him catch it, and the three of them laughed together.

Vernon Dursley chatted with old Foster and showed him his collection. Old Dursley had been doing business with Muggles over the years and was not a traditional wizard like Mr. Weasley, so he chatted with Vernon and complimented him from time to time, which made Vernon feel that the wizarding world was not all crazy.

Petunia Dursley was well prepared. Although Ou Mengmeng didn't like British food, she knew that Petunia was a good cook. Everyone sat down separately, and Vernon was very attentive in pouring wine for old Foster, while Petunia Foster served food to everyone. (End of this chapter)
