I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #101 - Chapter 101 Christmas Dinner

Ian and Hermione chose the standard departure time, which was the morning of December 24th, but considering that today was Christmas Eve, they returned home without taking a break before starting to tidy up and decorate the house.

All kinds of Christmas decorations bought by Mr. Granger in advance are hung in every corner of the house. Of course, the highlight of Christmas is also indispensable – the Christmas tree.

This is different from the plastic imitation Christmas trees that Ian has seen before. What Mr. Granger bought is a whole pine tree that has been cut and trimmed. It is about 2 meters high and has a special base at the bottom for fixed placement.

This kind of thing that obviously required height and physical strength was of course done by Ian and Mr. Granger together. At the same time, they also hung all kinds of lanterns, small bells and other gadgets on the tree.

At this time, Hermione appeared in the living room wearing her stuffed bunny slippers, and said to Mr. Granger: “Dad, I think you should help in the kitchen now. Mum was complaining to me just now that you bought it.” The turkey was too big for her to cook on her own.”

After hearing this, Ian also planned to go to the kitchen with Mr. Granger. After all, it is not good to be a guest in someone else’s house and do nothing.

Just as he was about to stand up, a white and tender hand held his sleeve.

Looking at Ian’s surprised expression, Hermione suddenly turned her eyes to one side and said somewhat casually: “Let them do it. You have no experience, and it’s very troublesome. Every year, my dad goes to the kitchen to help with cooking. It just so happens that Give them some personal space.”

He was moved by Hermione’s last words. Indeed, the couple was busy in the kitchen, and it was really hard for me, an outsider, to go over and help.

“Okay, you’re right.”

Seeing that Ian was so obedient, Hermione nodded with satisfaction. Then he said somewhat mysteriously: “Have you ever seen a dragon? It’s the kind of living dragon that can breathe fire and run around and bite people.”

“Dragon?…” Ian was a little stunned when he heard this. No wonder he didn’t meet her by chance in the auditorium and restaurant some time ago. This girl went to Hagrid’s place quietly.

But he couldn’t say anything about it. After all, Hermione was independent and free, and respect was the best way to get along.

Although he knew what Hermione was talking about, he didn’t intend to point it out. It would be nice to just play with the girl for a while. Then he looked confused and said in a somewhat surprised tone:

“A dragon? I’ve never seen one. Have you seen one? It’s so cool.”

“Hahaha, I’ll take you to watch it when I get the chance.” Hermione responded to Ian with a smile. Facing Ian who was a little dazed at this time, it made her feel a little relieved.

After spending half a semester at Hogwarts, she was no longer the ignorant girl she was before. Snape’s favor, his unrivaled talent in potions, his unique physical patron saint, and even being interviewed by the Daily Prophet.

Angelina also said in the common room some time ago that Ian’s outstanding performance in the Transfiguration Club, Professor McGonagall recognized that he is expected to compete for the Best Potential Newcomer Award. Not to mention that on the train today, I also knew that the other party was going to publish a novel.

All this made her worry about gains and losses. For a moment, she felt that Ian was so far away from her.

The other person was like an eagle spreading its wings for the first time, slowly flying into the sky, while she was still playing alone in the lawn. The sense of distance that was clearly visible but gradually increasing made her feel powerless.

But looking at Ian in front of him now, the sense of distance gradually disappeared little by little, as if he had returned to the first encounter on the train, that feeling of being within reach.

Thinking of this, Hermione looked at Ian quietly, and stretched out her hand to grab him… She had no other thoughts. The girl’s mind was very simple, she was simply afraid that Ian would distance herself from her again.

Looking at Hermione who was suddenly quiet, and the white and slender palm that was gradually approaching him, he was a little confused about what was going on. He just stared at the palm getting closer and closer…

Perhaps it was because the silence between the two of them made all the surrounding noises clearly audible, but Mr. Granger’s heavy coughing suddenly came from the kitchen, which instantly brought Hermione’s thoughts back to reality.

Then… the girl lowered her head in confusion, not knowing how to explain her behavior just now.

“Ha, you also discovered it? Just like yours, they are all alchemy tools made by Professor Dumbledore.” He looked at Hermione’s cheeks that were flushed due to shyness, and had no choice but to find such a far-fetched one for him. reasons.

As he spoke, Ian took off the silver hollow ring hanging around his neck and placed it in the other person’s white palm. No matter in this life or in his previous life, he didn’t like to wear rings, so he always wore this item on a string as a necklace.

Hermione instantly lifted the immobilization spell and returned to normal visibly. The girl said in a very positive tone: “Yes, that’s it. It’s so beautiful.”

Hermione seemed to suddenly think of something, and then said with some curiosity: “Why don’t you wear it on your hand?”

“I’m not used to wearing rings. I always feel like my hands are bound by them.” Ian told the truth.

When Hermione heard this reply, she said seriously: “You are wrong to think this way. The ring should be worn on your hand. You have to get used to it. This is very important.”

After saying that, he took Ian’s right hand, compared it carefully with the ring and said, “You always hold the wand in your right hand, hmm… the size here is just right.”

Hermione untied the lanyard from the ring without any explanation and put it directly on Ian’s right middle finger, while she carefully put the lanyard away. After doing all this, he said a little awkwardly: “I’m going to see how they prepared dinner.”

Ian was speechless as he looked at the girl’s back as if she was running away. In his understanding, men are on the left and women are on the right. It doesn’t mean anything if a boy wears a ring on his right hand.

…

After a while, Mrs. Granger had prepared the Christmas dinner, and the four of them sat at the table together.

Seeing Hermione’s family sitting at the dining table praying, Ian also followed the Romans and followed the Romans.

After the prayers were over, they began to enjoy dinner. Although it is not as amazing as the Hogwarts dinner, it is still extremely sumptuous. The first is the traditional Christmas main meal of roast turkey, served with roast potatoes, brandy cream sauce and cranberry sauce.

Other side dishes followed, including grilled salmon, fried cod, pies with various fillings, and for dessert some raisins and pudding. Of course, in order to celebrate the festival, Mr. Granger also opened a bottle of glogi wine to add to the fun.

glogi wine is a red wine with added ingredients first produced in Finland. Later it gradually became popular in Europe and became the best wine to accompany Christmas. It contains black currants, apple juice and cinnamon sticks. It tastes weird. Maybe it’s the origin of glogi wine. Due to Finland’s geographical location, this is meant to be drunk hot.
