No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 881 They are all relatives
"Come to think of it, 'Little Petunia' was named after you by Lily. Lily and Evely were best friends at the time, and they got pregnant together. Harry was named after Evely's grandfather. Lily said at the time that the boy would be named Severus and the girl would be named Petunia." Old Foster thanked Petunia who came to share the food and said in a gentle voice.
"Everett Devonte? Are you Everett's daughter?" Penny quickly turned her head to look at Ou Mengmeng.
"Do you know my mother?" Ou Mengmeng was stunned for a moment. They had met before, but she would never tell them who her mother was. At that time, they were all together as families with many topics to talk about, so naturally they would not talk about their respective parents.
"Yes, she is Lily's friend, we have met. Now that I see it, you look quite like her, especially your hair, you have the same hair color." Penny remembered the past with the blonde girl, and thought, "Where's your mother?"
"My mother was also killed by that man, and my father took me away." Ou Mengmeng sighed softly. Looking up at Penny, "Fortunately, Harry has you, otherwise..."
"Avel is dead too? Who is the murderer?" Penny didn't expect that the pretty and cheerful girl was also dead. "No, who on earth did they offend?"
"It's hard to say whether he provoked someone or not. Who do you think provoked the German painter? It's just that one person's ambition expands, and someone will always be harmed." Ou Mengmeng smiled bitterly and shook her head gently. "However, my mother and Godmother Lily are both heroes. They stood up and resisted!"
Penny gently touched Ou Mengmeng's hair. She didn't know the whole story. The main thing was that Dumbledore didn't think she should know anything. Now that she heard what they said, she still couldn't understand it so easily. She could only touch the girl gently. Nothing she said seemed right.
Ou Mengmeng smiled at her, cut a piece of meat, chewed it herself, and nodded. The meat was not bad, and she had made a good sauce. Steak was originally good for good quality meat and well-roasted, even with only coarse salt, the taste was not too bad. "Aunt Penny, this steak is roasted so well."
"As long as you like it." Penny was a very competent housewife, so she changed the subject.
Of course, it was hard not to make them happy when Ou Mengmeng, who praised the outstanding graduates, was there. Everyone also habitually avoided the previous topic and did not talk about such heavy topics during meals. Of course, Ou Mengmeng really praised the three Dursleys and made them very happy.
The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests, and Harry felt that "Little Petunia" was such a nice person. She even moved here for him. He felt that he was a little sorry for her. If they were not worried about him, they would not have to do this. In order not to waste their efforts, he became more polite. This made Vernon and Petunia feel that he was not so annoying. Of course, they no longer felt that Harry was annoying this time. For example, Paulie gave Dali a diet pill, which was very effective. This made the skinny Petunia feel that Harry finally did something right.
They drank tea and chatted after dinner, and Penny's specialty baked desserts were served. Ou Mengmeng felt that, as expected, with two fat kids in the family, none of the meat was gained in vain.
"Lily is your godmother?" Penny pulled Ou Mengmeng to sit next to her.
"Of course, Auntie, you and my godmother must have a very good relationship, otherwise, you wouldn't have named me after you." Ou Mengmeng hurriedly continued. She just noticed that Lily's photo was placed where it should be, and Harry's more normal photo was placed a little in front. Of course, Dali's photo was still a little bigger, which also showed that Harry and Lily were no longer taboos in this family. "That's why you have taken care of Harry all these years." Penny hesitated and said nothing.
"Oh, by the way, I have a very impolite question, Professor Dumbledore, how did we talk about this?" Harry put down his tea. This was what he had always wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to start. Now that the topic happened to be brought up, he hurriedly asked.
"What to talk about?" Petunia was stunned for a moment. She had never met Dumbledore.
"That's right, he is the executor of my parents' estate, and originally the guardianship should have been with him. But because my mother used a blood protection spell on me before she died, Dumbledore said that I could only survive if I was with you. So, how did he talk to you about it?" Harry's two years of study were not in vain, mainly to prepare for the lawsuit for "Little Petunia", and he read countless legal documents every day. Dumbledore handed himself over to Petunia, so he had to talk about the distribution of benefits.
"Your parents have an inheritance?" Vernon's eyes widened.
"We don't have much money, and the house was bombed. Everything in the house was destroyed. We are preparing to file a lawsuit and seek compensation from the murderer's accomplices." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly.
She had heard from her daughter before that some Dumbledore haters were also talking about why Dumbledore didn't give child support to the Vernons. Dumbledore fans gave countless examples, one of which was that even if they gave money to the Vernons, they wouldn't treat Harry well, just like the couple in Les Miserables, who would blackmail Dumbledore and even try to steal Harry's treasury. Ou Mengmeng didn't want to test human nature for a little money.
"Can we win?" Vernon frowned. "Besides, will those accomplices bring danger to you?"
"Those people were imprisoned, but their property was not sealed, so now their property is legally taken out to compensate the orphans, like Harry, me, and many other children who lost their parents in that fight." Ou Mengmeng nodded. Now it seems that Vernon is not that bad. At least he is still concerned about his own safety first. It is easy to explain the inheritance now. After all, they raised Harry for ten years and didn't get a penny. They all thought Lily married a pauper, but now they say they have an inheritance, but no one told them. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.
"Poor thing." Penny hugged Ou Mengmeng. She was not lacking in sympathy at this time. She didn't care about property or anything like that. After all, Harry only came back for one month a year. When he came back before, he also said that he would go to the Fosters' house for the rest of the vacation. Since they were already maintaining a superficial relationship, there was no need to do meaningless things.
"Aunt, what did Dumbledore say?" Harry asked hurriedly. He asked Hagrid and McGonagall, when they sent him to Privet Drive together. Hagrid said countless times that he was reluctant to leave, but no one said what Petunia said.
"I didn't see them. They left you at the door with a letter on you. Just like an abandoned baby! The letter told us that Lily was dead and you were Lily's child, so we should adopt you." Penny was furious just thinking about it. (End of this chapter)
