Harry Potter and the Master of Magic Chapter 56: I want to eat spicy crayfish


  After some manipulation by Claire, the fireplace of Collinsville Castle was finally connected to the Floo network.

   From now on, Zhang Hao only needs to find other fireplaces connected to the Floo network, and he can travel across the two places in an instant.

   "Need a try? Mr. Zhang?" Claire made an inviting gesture, and then said: "There is a password you must know, it will let you go directly to the Ministry of Magic."

   He took out another can of Floo powder and handed it to Zhang Hao, and then said: "The Ministry of Magic is giving it away for free. You can buy it at Diagon Alley when you use it up. Come on! Let's give it a try."

   He grabbed a handful of Floo powder from the jar and stood in the tall fireplace.

   "McKikeo!"

  嘭!

   A green flame rose from the fireplace, and Claire disappeared.

   Zhang Hao also grabbed a handful of Floo powder to learn something, and disappeared with the flames.

   When he appeared again, he was already in the atrium foyer of the Ministry of Magic.

  Whether through the telephone booths on the streets of London, the public toilets above, or the fireplace flyway network, they can only be sent here.

  Because everyone who enters the Ministry of Magic has to undergo different levels of inspection here.

   "Aha! Mr. Zhang, what do you think?" Claire was waiting in front. He saw Zhang Hao successfully teleported, and asked with a smile: "This experience should be pretty good, right?"

   Some dust fell on Zhang Hao, he cleaned it up with a cleaning spell, and then said: "It's really convenient. Now that the Floo network has been solved, I won't bother you with the rest."

  "No trouble, Mr. Zhang, if you need help, please don't hesitate to speak." Claire shrugged, "If there is nothing wrong, I have to go back to work. Goodbye!"

   Watching Claire leave, Zhang Hao came to the Magical Creatures Management and Control Department alone.

  The one who received him was changed, but after explaining his intentions, he still received a very considerate service.

   The receptionist looked very happy, and he complained: "You can count it, those elves are terrible when they are out of work! You should pick them up quickly! If there are fewer of them , Our Ministry of Magic will be a lot easier."

   Zhang Hao just nodded when he heard the words, and didn't say much.

   The other party’s grievances can’t be taken seriously. If all the elves of the Ministry of Magic are adopted, I’m afraid that a group of people will be unemployed directly.

   These people may not be so happy then.

   The next thing went well. The staff personally helped Zhang Hao to send the elves to the castle.

   Before leaving, the staff warned again: "Sir, I will remind you one last time, never let the elves touch the clothes. All the consequences caused by this will be borne by you."

   Zhang Hao nodded, looking a little disapproving.

  The staff thought Zhang Hao didn't take it seriously, so they simply said goodbye, and then shook their head and left the castle.

   "Master, please arrange work for us!"

   "Yeah! Master, we can't be free for a moment."

   "Is this the owner's house? It's really big!"

   "I like it here, it's like the home of an ancient noble wizard."

   Zhang Hao has a headache, these little elves are too noisy.

   Fortunately, the ordinary people in the castle have been fired, otherwise there may be some trouble!

   Zhang Hao thought for a while, and decided to find some work for these little guys first.

   He said irritably, "If you are eager to work, then go! There are many rooms in the castle. Clean every room. In addition, check again to see if there are any broken things. Fix it all! Go ahead!"

   The little elves screamed excitedly when they heard this.

   In the blink of an eye, they were all gone.

   Zhang Hao said to himself: "It seems that we should celebrate moving to the new house, but the time is a bit tight, so forget it! Hmm! The big cousin must be notified, otherwise she might kill me."

   He dialed the number of Zhang Qiu's family, told his cousin that the castle had been set up properly, and invited their family to come as a guest.

   In the evening, Zhang Qiu's family came to the castle through the fireplace.

  "This castle is really spectacular, and it's not much worse than the royal castle, right?" Zhang Qiu's mother exclaimed, "It's just a little bit open."

   "Auntie, if you like, you can move in with your uncle." Zhang Hao smiled and said, "It's a waste of me to live alone in such a big place, and I may not have many opportunities to live here. With Floo Network, it is much more convenient for you to go to work every day."

   "Let's come to live with you?" Aunt hesitated for a while, then shook her head and said: "Forget it! It's okay to live here for a day or two, but staying here will make you feel flustered."

   "Xiao Hao, your aunt is right." Zhang Hao's uncle also said: "We are all ordinary wizards. If we live in such a big castle for a long time, we will definitely feel uneasy."

   Zhang Qiu’s family are all of Chinese descent. They have never forgotten the blood of the Yanhuang blood flowing in their bodies. They all communicate in Chinese when there are no outsiders.

  , of course, today is the same, so the atmosphere is more cordial.

   "Mom! Can I come here to live with my cousin?" Zhang Qiu asked expectantly: "I like it here!"

   "No!" Aunt objected: "Can't you be so unruly?"

   Zhang Qiu was a little upset when she heard that~IndoMTL.com~ She pouted and stared at her mother, as if she wanted to fight.

   "Uh! I don't think it's bad." Uncle said disapprovingly: "Xiaohao needs to be taken care of by himself, and my daughter just came over to be with him."

   This sounded a bit reasonable, and even my aunt started to reconsider.

   But Zhang Hao accidentally saw that the uncle's eyes seemed a bit ambiguous when looking at his aunt.

   It suddenly became clear to him that his uncle didn't think about him, but wanted to live in a two-person world with his aunt!

  He was silent, waiting for the family of three to make a decision.

   The sun sank completely to the horizon, and the earth suddenly plunged into darkness.

   The castle lit up with soft candlelight, Zhang Hao snapped his fingers, and delicious food appeared on the table immediately.

   "It's great! It's like the Hogwarts school banquet." The aunt praised again: "Are these all house elves made?"

   "Yes, please enjoy." Zhang Hao said casually: "House elves don't know how to cook Chinese food. I have time to teach them later."

   "I really want to come and try it," my uncle said expectantly: "We went to Huaxia once a few years ago, and we haven't eaten authentic Chinese food since then."

   "I want to eat crayfish!" Zhang Qiu suddenly said with a look of drunkenness: "The spicy crayfish is so delicious! There are also Mapo tofu, steamed lamb, Huadiao drunk chicken, Dongpo pork shoulder..."

   Zhang Hao and his uncle and aunt looked at each other and laughed.

  ……

   The guests and the host enjoyed a meal, and the dinner table was full of laughter.

   The little elves got what they wanted and successfully proved their worth.

   The Christmas holiday is coming to an end, and the little wizards will return to Hogwarts...
