The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 327 Banquet (Part 1)

In the study, Jon and Mrs. Greengrass talked for a long time.

Until the polite house-elf Hodder knocked lightly on the door of the study.

His sharp voice sounded from outside the door: "Madam, and Mr. Hart... The banquet is ready, do we need to start?"

"It's time to start!" Diana Greengrass raised her voice and said towards the door.

"Okay, as ordered—" Hodder, the house elf, led the order and left.

Then, Mrs. Greengrass stood up and looked at Jon, her tone was kind and gentle: "Jon, shall we go to the restaurant now?"

"Okay, ma'am!" Jon also quickly stood up and saluted respectfully.

At this moment, Jon suddenly noticed that Mrs. Greengrass pushed a small bag in front of him.

"This is..." He couldn't help being stunned, and looked at the other party with doubtful eyes.

Mrs. Greengrass smiled at him and motioned for him to open it.

The workmanship of the bag is exquisite, with thin strips of gold ribbon engraved on it...Jon carefully picked it up, it was heavier than expected, and the contents inside made a "bang" and "bang" sound when they collided together.

It's a bag of gold...a lot, maybe thousands of galleons.

"Mrs. Greengrass, this..." Jon said hesitantly.

"Accept it. Since you want to save Astoria, I will definitely do my best... If you need any help, you can just let the owl come to me, you are welcome." Mrs. Greengrass continued to say with a smile , her tone was very calm, but at the same time there was something undeniable in it.

Jon didn't make any more excuses, but took the bag of gold coins, and then nodded solemnly: "I understand, I will definitely do my best to save Astoria... "

"Of course, I believe in you, you will succeed!"

...

A few minutes later, following Diana Greenglass, Jon came to the restaurant of the manor.

A small but exquisite room... On the velvety black ceiling, stars twinkle, obviously the ceiling is enchanted; the gorgeous crystal lamp casts a faint light, making the whole restaurant look elegant and quiet.

The soft saxophone sounded from an invisible place, filling the entire dining room; Jon, who was a little nervous and anxious before, calmed down immediately when he heard the sound.

On the round wooden table, there is a painting of an elk with its front hooves raised high, looking at the direction of the door with both eyes; there are only four chairs left around, and the other chairs have been moved away.

The house elf Hodder, as well as the old house elf Emily, all wore aprons, looking a little funny; after seeing Jon walk in, Hodder respectfully bowed to Jon , although Emily looked a little unhappy, she still nodded towards Jon dully.

Sisters Daphne and Astoria-Greengrass, who came to the restaurant a few steps ahead of them; the two of them were holding hands and seemed to have reconciled...Astoria turned around and smiled at Jon Daphne just nodded bluntly, then turned around to avoid Jon's sight.

Lady Diana Greengrass strode to the farthest edge and sat down; then she held out her hand for Jon to take the guest seat opposite her. Daphne and Greengrass sat on the seats on both sides respectively.

On the right hand side of each seat, there is a white porcelain vase; a pink rose in the vase is in full bloom, exuding a faint fragrance, which smells very comfortable.

Jon looked around calmly, and saw Astoria taking out roses from the porcelain vase, and with a pinch, the roses turned into powder and dissipated in the air... Then, A folded tablecloth appeared in the porcelain vase, and Astoria took it out again and spread it out in front of her.

Jon quickly followed suit, took out the tablecloth from the porcelain vase, and spread it in front of himself.

"Ma'am, Mr. Hart, can we start?" The sharp voice of the house elf Hodder sounded from Jon's side.

"I have no objection!" Jon quickly turned his head and responded.

"Go ahead!" ordered Mrs. Greengrass.

"Obey!" Huo De saluted to them respectively, then stretched out his right hand and snapped his fingers.

...

Cutlery such as knives, forks, and plates appeared in front of them one by one, and at the same time, a basket filled with pieces of sliced ​​bread.

"Mr. Hart, when eating bread, do you prefer butter, jam, ginger juice, or wine?" Holder asked softly with a tray that was relatively large for his body on his head.

"Jam will do..." Jon replied, taking a serving of jam from the tray.

Handed the ginger juice and jam to the three members of the Greengrass family, Hodder snapped his fingers again, the tray above his head disappeared, and a dish appeared in the middle of the dining table. inside a spoon.

"Mr. Hart, this is smoked salmon with caviar!" Hodder yelled softly, and at the same time used the floating spell, causing the salmon in the four spoons to fly to the plates of the four wizards.

Jon tasted it - the smoky taste and the deliciousness of caviar, the taste is good, and it greatly increases the appetite.

"Mr. Hart, do you prefer cream soup, seafood soup, or borscht?" Hodder's voice sounded behind Jon again.

"Whatever...whatever..." Jon was a little annoyed by the tedious process.

...

"Okay, Hodder!" Mrs. Diana Greengrass took the initiative to say: "It doesn't need to be so formal, just let Mr. Hart do it himself."

"Yes, ma'am!" the house-elf bowed to his mistress, and stepped back.

Jon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Greengrass seemed to see through his embarrassment. She smiled and said, "Don't be restrained, Jon... just treat it as if you were at home."

"Thank you, ma'am!" Jon replied hastily.

The house elf also snapped his fingers for the last time, one after another, plate after plate, appeared on the dining table one after another——

Every plate is a delicious meal. From grilled prawns, squid ink noodles, grilled scallops... to steak, lamb stew with potatoes, roast goose with apples... to mango pudding, caramel egg pudding, chocolate pudding...

It was richer than Jon imagined, and the taste was quite good.

Of course, Jon still pays attention to his movements as much as possible to make himself look more polite.

...

Until after the banquet-

"Daphne, I'm a little sleepy, help me to rest!" Mrs. Greengrass said lazily.

"Okay, mother..."

The mother and daughter left; Jon and Astoria were the only ones left in the dining room.
