HP Approaches the Magical World

Chapter 4 Gryffindor or Slytherin

A small town on the outskirts of London, Isa Young Manor.

The owner of this manor is said to be a descendant of travelers from the far east many years ago. The original owner was a Chinese named Yang Hang. He settled here and married Isa Berenka, the daughter of a local nobleman. Begat children, and their descendants lived here for generations.

Now living here are Mrs. Carolina Yang and her daughter who are over 80 years old.

Next to the Isa Manor, there is also a large house, which is an old house belonging to the Smith family. However, since the old Smiths who lived here passed away, their son and daughter-in-law who lived in Greenwich basically did not live here. It has passed, and now there is only an old housekeeper here to look after the house.

By the way, the daughter-in-law of the Smiths is Carolina Young's daughter Lin Yang.

Of course, it was Lynn Smith now.

For the residents of the small town, the two families who live near them are equally weird, and they rarely communicate with the residents of the town. However, these two families are very rich, otherwise they would not be able to cultivate such outstanding talents. child.

I heard that he is still a university professor!

That's what the townspeople always say.

However, Love Smith obviously didn't know about such rumors. He received a good elite education since he was a child, so he had no contact with the residents of the town at all.

...

An hour before dinner, the Smith family emerged from the fireplace in the basement of Isa Young's manor.

For Mr. Smith, this is not the first time he has used the Floo network. As the husband of a witch, his identity has been registered with the Ministry of Magic-so as not to trigger the secrecy law, and it is these magical modes of transportation. It was the experience that made Mr. Smith so curious about the world of wizards.

Greeting them in front of the fireplace was Karika, the house elf of the Yang family. This female elf now serves the Yang family together with her mother and brother, and for them, the Smith family is also their master.

Without him, Love Smith and Lynn Smith grew up together. They couldn't be exposed because of the secrecy law, but this didn't prevent them from developing a good impression of Mr. Smith.

And after Love Smith and his little master became husband and wife, there is no need to keep this kind of affection secret.

"Welcome back, my master."

Karika gave a standard aristocratic salute, and winked at Jon when she got up.

Jon also returned a look. His friendship with Karika, a house elf, dates back to when he lived in Isa Manor.

It was a real fun time.

Going back to my own home naturally does not need the guidance of elves. As a wizard family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the Yang family not only has house elves of their own family, but also several wizard servants. These wizards are not very advanced. It's not a bad thing for someone with a magic cultivation level to find such a job with a high salary.

After all, the family members of these servants still live in the real world, and even two of them are not wizards, so they still need the currency of ordinary people to survive.

Love Smith is the one who pays these servants. Of course, this expense is only a small amount for him.

It wasn't far from the basement to the living room. Just as Jon went upstairs, he saw a grandmother wearing a silk robe and glasses sitting on the sofa drinking tea and reading a book. This old witch is like an old lady from an ordinary family. If you ignore If she casually turned a small wooden square in her hand into a delicate silver cup.

"Grandma, I miss you so much!"

Jon smiled and walked over to Mrs. Carolina's side, reading a book together with his grandmother's arms. He couldn't do it like a child and threw himself into the grandmother's arms to act like a baby-it would make him physically uncomfortable, but it showed closeness It can still be done.

In contrast, the Smiths were much more reserved. They greeted Mrs. Carolina and sat down on the sofa next to them.

Love Smith likes to come to Isa Manor. There are many interesting books in the wizarding world in the library here. Every time he comes, he will read one or two books. Those books are the legends and secrets of the wizarding world. They are used as entertainment Read books, and you won't fail to understand them.

Ms. Mei Yang, who heard that her younger sister's family had arrived, had already come down the stairs. Behind her was a black-haired girl who seemed to be two years older than Jon. She was Jon's cousin. This Isa? The future heir of Young Manor, Bella Young.

The relationship between Jon and Bella Yang is very good. Because of the unfortunate marriage of her parents, Bella is obviously closer to her grandmother and younger brother Jon, but she is indifferent to her mother.

There was still some time before the dinner party, and Mrs. Smith and her mother and sister wanted to talk privately. Mr. Smith went to the library to read, and Jon naturally went to the manor with his cousin Bella to play.

"I heard that you have already got the wand? Quickly show it to my sister."

After leaving her parents, Bella finally showed a little lively look on her face, showing great interest in her cousin's wand.

Jon was not worried about his wand being broken, so he graciously took out his wand and handed it to his cousin.

Bella waved her wand, but there was no response. It seemed that she wanted to show Jon a little magic.

There are many advantages to being a descendant of a pure-blood wizard family. Take the "Reasonable Restraint on Underage Wizards Act" as an example. In addition to the fact that young wizards who have not started learning magic but have already got a wand can cast magic, The descendants of pure-blood families will not be warned by the Ministry of Magic if they perform magic during the holidays while they are in school.

Jon seriously suspected that the relevant laws of the Ministry of Magic were designed for young Muggle-born wizards, and they had a serious tendency to discriminate.

There are pure-blood wizards who are taught by their parents and can practice magic during the holidays, and Muggle-born wizards who are self-taught and can't use magic during the holidays. The Ministry of Magic's preference should not be too obvious.

"Looks like you have nothing to do with my wand."

Jon tilted his head and retracted his wand, then changed the subject and asked, "Is Hogwarts fun?"

"It's no fun. If you really want to learn something, you'll be busy. To be honest, a lot of homework."

Bella Young is currently studying at Ravenclaw College in Hogwarts, and she is about to enter the third year at the beginning of school. Of course, entering Ravenclaw is the tradition of the wizards of the Yang family.

"By the way, which academy do you want to enter?" Bella blinked and said, "I heard from my mother that your magical talent is very good. Do you want to enter Gryffindor or Slytherin?"
