Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 92: Life is so hard


October just arrived, and Hogwarts Castle was already enveloped in gusty winds and torrential rain.

Several days of heavy rain caused the surrounding temperature to plummet. The cold air permeated under the rain curtain and silently infiltrated the castle.

Albert went to the school hospital immediately after realizing that he had a cold, and got a cup of refreshment from Madam Pomfrey, the head nurse. After drinking this medicine, the effect was immediate. The downside, though, is that people who drink this potion will experience smoke in their ears for hours on end.

To this end, the twin brothers also gloated.

As a result, the two hadn't been dancing for a few days, and their ears started to smoke. However, it seems to be a funny thing for the Weasley twins, who also deliberately sounded the train whistle, causing everyone to laugh out loud.

Outside the window, the rain is still falling.

The brightly lit Gryffindor common room, with a roaring fire in the fireplace, is warm and cozy. At the moment, Albert is sitting by a window with his roommates doing homework.

"You said, will the garlic sprouts be soaked by the rain? The rain has been going on for several days." George raised his head and looked at the dim rain curtain outside the window, looking gloomy.

"Be careful, if I were you, I'd pay attention to my homework," Albert reminds. "Don't ruin your near-finished paper."

"Ah!" George found a drop of ink on his parchment and couldn't help screaming, "It's over, my homework."

"Stop howling, who distracted you from your homework." Angelina's temper was not very good. She caught a cold from Quidditch training a while ago, even after drinking Madam Pomfrey's refreshment. medicine, my head is still a little groggy, and I can't concentrate on my homework.

"Should we check, I'm a little worried that the garlic will rot in the blisters," Fred suggested fretfully.

In such bad weather, they couldn't check the sprouting garlic at all.

Albert couldn't help shaking his head when he heard the words, and said to himself, "This is the difference between planting outside and planting in a flowerpot!"

"If you're worried about garlic, go out and check, but don't look for me," said Li Jordan sullenly. There was still smoke in his ears, and the hapless man had just drank Madam Pomfrey's pick-me-up.

This class of freshmen was nearly wiped out by the flu.

"It's useless to go out to check, and I can't do anything." George was also depressed, and finally waited for the garlic to germinate, and the result was this heavy rain that lasted for several days, and the freshly sprouted garlic seedlings were all soaked in water.

Is it that hard to just grow garlic?

For some reason, the common room suddenly became lively, and people were excitedly talking about something.

"What happened?" Angelina asked Albert.

"How would I know." Albert stared depressedly at the chrysanthemum he had conjured, and put it in the vase next to him. The blooming chrysanthemums in the vase were all the result of Albert's practice of summoning.

"Notice to Hogsmeade." Lee Jordan pointed to a notice on the old notice board. "End of October, before Halloween."

"Yes, but that's a third grader's activity," corrects Angelina, looking agitated, distracted by the hum of chatter in the lounge.

"Actually, I'm looking forward to Halloween this year." Albert had already been to Hogsmeade and wasn't interested in the only wizarding village in the UK, "I heard from a senior sister about Hogwarts. The Halloween is very good, there will be bats flying everywhere in the castle, delicacies made of jack-o-lanterns and pumpkins, and there will be a Halloween party in the evening.”

In the novel, after Harry Potter came to Hogwarts, there would always be some moths on Halloween every year:

In first year, trolls broke into the castle; in second year, Filch's cat was petrified; in third year, wanted criminal Blake tried to break into the Gryffindor lounge; in fourth year, School welcomes the rest of the Triwizard Tournament; in fifth grade...

Alia raised her eyebrows and asked, "I don't think Halloween is anything special."

"Don't you think it would be more fun for everyone to spend Halloween together?" Albert explained, "It's fun to play games together, and it's fun to spend the holidays together."

"Makes sense." Lee Jordan agreed.

"Last time, when I went to see Hagrid, I found that in the vegetable field in his backyard, each pumpkin was half the height of a person." Albert continued, "Those pumpkins were supposed to be for Halloween. "

There is no doubt that Hagrid used the Expansion Charm on the pumpkin.

Actually, Albert thinks the twins can use the Expansion Charm on the garlic they grow, and they don't eat that stuff anyway.

Okay! If Fred and George could use the Expansion Charm.

Unfortunately, people seem to be more interested in Hogsmeade village than Halloween, and they hear second-year students complaining about why only third-year can go to Hogsmeade and stuff like that.

Albert and his roommates, however, are less enthusiastic about Hogsmeade than others. After all, a few people had only been to Hogsmeade not long ago, and there wasn't much mystery there to them~IndoMTL.com~ and it was useless to go with no money in their pockets.

As soon as the rain began to lighten, the twins immediately took umbrellas and went to check on the garlic, and by the way, they took Albert, who was practicing summoning, with him.

The current situation is not very optimistic. All the garlic sprouts have been soaked in water for too long and rotted.

The expressions on several people's faces were as gloomy as the dark clouds in the sky.

No way, I had to wait a long time for the garlic sprouts to germinate, but it was ruined by a heavy rain.

The twins, who worked so hard, were suddenly depressed.

"What the **** are you doing?" Hagrid's voice came from the rain curtain in a frantic voice.

When the three of them looked in the direction of the sound, they saw Hagrid rushing towards this direction, without even opening his umbrella, his body was soaked by the rain.

He thought that several people were planning to enter the woods, so he hurried over, his nose was almost crooked.

Albert briefly explained the situation, and Hagrid was stunned. He pointed at the twins in disbelief and said, "You grow garlic here?"

When Hagrid saw the overturned soil bag and the rotten garlic, he believed it.

"Ahem, actually, they just want to try to make a... amulet with garlic, they need a lot of garlic!" Albert explained quickly.

"This is definitely the stupidest thing I've ever heard." Hagrid looked at the three of them speechlessly, reached out and patted Fred and George on the shoulders, "It's not just growing garlic, don't be depressed, I I can give you a few more, this time next to my vegetable garden."

"No, Hagrid." Albert interrupted, "This time we're going to transplant the garlic into pots, and then move the pots back to the dormitory, so we don't have to worry about the heavy rain, the only trouble I just need to move out and get some sunshine every once in a while.”
