Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry.

"Brother D, Harry, Hermione, Neville and Malfoy, I think they should spend the holiday at my house this year."

According to the order, it is my turn to spend the holidays at his house this year.

"Although our house is not big, not beautiful, and a bit old, it can still accommodate a few people. I hope everyone will not dislike it."

The Weasley family lived outside the village of Ottery-St. Catchpole. Their house was called The Burrow. From the appearance alone, it seemed to match the name. It was indeed very simple.It was a wooden house that looked a bit old. There were three more floors built above the roof like an illegal building. It was built crookedly and had no aesthetic appeal. It was a miracle that it didn't collapse, let alone be inhabited. Indeed. Very crude.

Not to mention an ordinary person's house, even a normal wizard's house does not meet the specifications.

However, in fact, the interior of the Burrow is just like Newt's suitcase. It contains everything and is full of surprises. No matter how declining and poor the Weasley family is now, they are still a holy 28 pure-blood wizard family. The house is full of things. Magical creatures and magic items. All in all it was definitely a nice place to stay.

As soon as Ron finished speaking, Harry, his good brother, continued: "Don't say that Ron, your house is definitely the coolest house I have ever seen."

After all, even wizards, few would put a ghoul in the attic. Harry had seen this ghoul when he lived in the Burrow in his first year. It was different from the stereotype of bloodthirsty, cruel and cruel. The ghoul that enjoys killing is completely different. It is a humanoid creature with a face covered with pustules. It usually eats some moths and bugs. Most of the time, it is not aggressive at all. It just likes to hum and knock in the middle of the night. Water pipes are annoying.

"Sorry, Ron, I'm afraid it won't work this year."

Dudley's words made Ron lower his head in disappointment.

Something happened when it was Ron's turn. It was easy to think that he disliked the environment of the Burrow. Although this was not the case, it was inevitably misunderstood.

So Dudley simply said it out in one breath: "We can't take it easy this holiday. There is no extra time for us to play and rest. Professor Dumbledore has found a great teacher for us."

"It's remarkable."

Dudley repeated it for emphasis.

"So we need to spend almost the entire holiday at this teacher's place. You need to discuss it with your parents. We will leave before the second week of the holiday, and the destination this time is relatively far."

His words managed to attract the attention of others.

"In Austria."

"cool!"

Ron and Draco's eyes lit up at the same time and they said in unison, they have never been abroad at this age.

Yes, compared to Ron's trip to Egypt the year before last, Draco was the one who had never been abroad. In the past few years, Lucius originally planned to take him abroad for vacation. However, Draco spent most of his holidays hanging out with Dudley and the others, so naturally he had no chance.

Although he once boasted about riding a broomstick to Greece before his first flying lesson in first grade.

"Of course this is not mandatory, it's all voluntary."

Dudley said that he was a very great wizard, how could they waste such a good opportunity?

Even Ron, who was used to being at the bottom, didn't want to be pulled down too far by his peers.

"Last point. How well do you master the knowledge Karkaroff imparted?"

"Mastering those things is the basis for meeting this professor. If we can't even master the knowledge of Karkaroff, then there is a high probability that this professor will not teach us."

This ruthless character was expelled from Durmstrang, who publicly taught black magic, at the age of 16 because he was overly obsessed with studying black magic.

And the reason for expelling him was that he had studied black magic too deeply (actually it was a black magic accident).

"No problem!" Everyone said in unison, even Ron was no exception. It was obvious that he had really mastered it.

Poor Karkaroff, the little knowledge he was proud of was only the most basic thing in Dudley's eyes.And it has been mastered by the fourth grade students. Oh, after this holiday is over, they will be the fifth grade students.

Draco and the others were very excited about going abroad, and they kept chattering along the way.

Only Neville was relatively silent. He opened his mouth several times to speak, but he swallowed the words as they reached his lips.

This detail was naturally not hidden from Dudley's eyes. He took Neville alone to talk outside the carriage for a while. When he returned to the box again, Neville had regained his former vitality.

As the Hogwarts Express arrived at the station, the Dudley trio and their friends said goodbye one after another, but this time they did not have to wait until the station was empty. After a while, Snape got off the train, holding the bag in his hand. Carrying a very large box, he slowly walked towards them.

“10 minutes later than expected”

Snape's face was disgusting. These 10 minutes seemed to him as long as a season: "What are you waiting for?"

'Waiting for you, of course. '

The three thought at the same time.

Yes, there was no Vernon to pick them up today, they were going back to Privet Drive with Snape.

Snape was going to visit his godson (not referring to gender in general), whom he hadn't seen for almost a year, and was obviously impatient.

He took several people to a secluded place, and at the same time used magic to disperse the ordinary people around them.

"If there is no problem with your Apparition, then cast the spell with me."

Not even willing to wait for the 10-minute drive, it was clear that Snape really missed Lily.

The three of them had mastered the magic of Apparition as early as a year ago, but...

"Professor Snape, students who have not graduated cannot cast spells during the holidays."

Dudley said seriously, and Hermione and Harry next to him nodded in agreement.

Snape: "."

Snape's silence answered him.

'Are you serious? '

Snape looked at Dudley suspiciously, he did not believe that his disciple would abide by the rules set by the Ministry of Magic.

Especially since he himself is one of the rule makers (a member of the Wizengamot).

"Then what are you waiting for?"

Snape's unique speaking tone sounded again, and he spoke very impatiently.

"Come to me quickly."

It didn't matter whether it was true or not, Snape didn't want to waste time here, he couldn't wait any longer.

Following a burst of distortion in the surrounding space, the figures of the four people disappeared.

Privet Drive, we are back.

Chapter 332 Chapter 326 Vivian Decoction

4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey.

"Open your mouth. Ah, be good Lily."

Snape was holding a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other. He forced a slightly ugly smile from his stiff face and coaxed little Lily in a low voice: "Be obedient, Lily, be good. Say...ah...eat." These things are good for you.”

He was feeding Lily.

Little Lily is over one year old and can eat some simple food, mostly liquid food.

It was hard to imagine that the Potions teacher, who was always stern in class and seemed to have lost the feeling of laughter, would do such a thing for a child.

However, little Lily didn't appreciate it. No matter how much Snape tried to coax her, she just refused to take a bite.

The bowl was filled with some dark, sticky soup. I couldn't tell what it was, but it exuded an indescribable strange smell. Not only children but also adults didn't like this smell.

"Stop feeding my daughter those weird things."

Vernon put his hands on his hips and yelled at Snape angrily: "There are bugs, poisonous snakes, and those flowers and plants of unknown origin mixed together. Do you want to kill her?"

"What do you know?"

Snape replied calmly, without even raising his head. His attention was entirely on little Lily, and he had no intention of explaining anything.

He would be friendly to Petunia because they were neighbors who grew up together. His attitude towards Vernon was obviously much different, although anyone familiar with Snape would know that he was actually very considerate. , if it were anyone else, he would not reply.

Who is he?

He is one of the few masters of potions in the wizarding world, and people who want his potions can line up this street.

Our Potions Master is very proud, but the problem is Vernon doesn't know that.

"She doesn't like it!"

Vernon roared in anger so loudly that the whole house could hear it.

"These things are good for her! I'm doing it for her own good!"

Snape was starting to get a little angry too.

The main reason was that little Lily refused to open her mouth no matter what, and he was reluctant to use force.

Vernon snatched little Lily from Snape's hand, held her in his arms, and stared at Snape warily: "So what? She doesn't like it, do you understand? She doesn't like it."

Compared with Vernon's 300-pound body (most of which is now muscle), Snape's little weight is like a skinny monkey.

There is an essential gap in strength.

If you think about it, you can understand why Vernon was so nervous.

Let me ask you, you suddenly discovered that your wife’s former neighbor was secretly feeding your daughter a very suspicious decoction. How would you react?

"I'm her godfather!"

"I am her father!"

The two grown men glared at each other, panting heavily at the same time, their faces flushed, neither of them willing to give in.

Although Vernon had a great fondness for Snape because of Sirius, this goodwill disappeared not long after he became little Lily's godfather.

Even brothers, couples, parents and children will have different opinions on the next generation, let alone fathers and godfathers.

Fortunately, both of them were very restrained. Vernon refrained from punching the other's gloomy face, and Snape refrained from casting a curse on the other.

"Oh my god, what are you going to do?"

The one who could persuade the two of them at the critical moment was Penny, who hurriedly ran out of the room.

Lifting little Lily up from Vernon's arms, the child seemed frightened by the two of them, with her little mouth pouting and her eyes filled with tears.

"Go away, go away, you two rude guys, look at how scared Lily is!"

Penny drove the two of them back to the living room. The two people sitting on the sofa turned their heads and let out a cold snort.

The movements were exactly the same, as if they had been rehearsed thousands of times.

"What happened?" Dudley came down from upstairs, wearing a small vest used for exercise. He was followed by Harry, who was yawning and rubbing his eyes as if he hadn't woken up. He had learned from Dudley a long time ago During the Invisible Stretching Charm, Harry's room was moved upstairs.

"I smell the potion"

There was a faint smell of potion floating in the room, which could not escape Dudley's keen sense of smell.

"It's still a very strong tonic."

Harry added with a huge yawn, having been woken up by Vernon's previous rant.

After all, he was also the top student in the potions class. Although he couldn't smell the specific potion, he could still tell the type.

"let me see."

Dudley walked up to the bowl of potion, put it under his nose and sniffed it for a few times, his eyes lit up: "Are there phoenix tears in it?"

Harry, who was originally drowsy, suddenly became more awake after hearing the word Phoenix.

As we all know, the tears of the phoenix are a very precious potion material. It not only has the power to expel curses, but it is also a very powerful healing potion that can detoxify almost all biological toxins.

In the black market, there is a price but no market.

Even without any processing, phoenix tears can be used directly as potions. Potions that can use phoenix tears must be the most top-notch existence.

Harry held the bowl of dark potion and looked at it for a long time without recognizing what it was.

"This can't be Fawkes's, can it? Professor Snape, what did you do to it?"

Dudley had reason to suspect that Snape got the tears from Fawkes.

Even the Forbidden Forest, known as the Zoo of Magical Animals, does not have a phoenix, except that Fox has not heard anything about the phoenix for hundreds of years, and although this creature is far less aggressive towards humans than those 5X level magical creatures, it is It's extremely difficult to tame, and you can't even see it, let alone make it cry.

Snape didn't answer, but judging from the micro-expression on his face, Dudley was probably right.

"What potion is this?"

Let alone Harry, even Dudley couldn't tell what kind of potion it was.

"Don't you think your level of potions is better than mine? You can try and see if you can tell, Dursley, um, little Mr. Dursley."

"I think it's very simple. A normal wizard can see it."

Harry was listening to a black thread, and he couldn't tell what kind of potion it was. So he wasn't a normal wizard?
