Harry Potter Morning Light.

Chapter 689
At the beginning of the 19th century, the Schuttalbaum's house in Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany was going to hold a Christmas party.Daughter Clara, son Fritz and the whole family greeted the guests at the door.

The Christmas party started, and Clara's godfather, Dero Selmeia, brought a beautiful and huge hand-cranked music box, from which three puppets, namely the lovely girl, the funny clown, and the mighty Arab, were taken out to perform for the children.Finally, Drosselmea took out the ugly nutcracker, and Clara asked Drosselmea to give her the puppet.Holding the nutcracker in her arms, she quietly fell asleep.

Clara, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened, and saw the Seven-headed Mouse King leading a large group of mice to take away the Nutcracker.The Nutcracker suddenly became bigger, commanding the puppets and the mouse army to start a war.Clara fainted from the sight.When she wakes up, the Nutcracker undoes the mouse's magic and turns into a handsome prince, who invites Clara to visit the candy kingdom he rules.The two got on the wooden horse and embarked on a journey.

The prince and Clara came to Snow Country, which is a crystal clear world.The Snow Queen and King lead the snow elves into snowflakes falling with the wind, dancing to welcome them.Clara got a beautiful shawl from the queen and the king and went on the road together with the prince.

The water fairies shouted when they saw the wooden boat that Clara and the prince were riding on.A gust of wind blew, and the mice that had not been wiped out came back to fight back, but they all died under the prince's sword in the end.

After eradicating the mice, Clara and the prince came to the Candy Kingdom, a luxurious palace built with all kinds of desserts.Various elves such as chocolate, jelly beans, and cream perform gorgeous dances to welcome them.Clara and the prince danced the pas de deux danced in the candy kingdom as a wedding ceremony.Clara has fallen in love with the prince deeply unknowingly, but also vaguely feels that the prince will leave her far away.With this anxiety, Clara fell asleep quietly.

The Christmas party was over, and the godfather gently put the white shawl on Clara's shoulders, and then drove away in a sleigh.Clara reminisces about the good times spent with the prince, holds the nutcracker in her arms, and stands for a long time in the fluttering snow, and the Christmas night is getting deeper and deeper.

Clara is only 9 years old, she knows nothing about marriage, she just thinks about dancing pas de deux, does she think that getting married is just a wedding ceremony and it's over?

While Pomona was eating lunch in the dining car, so was a large family, haggard-looking parents with three energetic young children, two boys and a girl.The girl ate quietly with a puppet in her hand, while the two boys stood on chairs and yelled, showing no basic table manners at all.

Starting to go to boarding school at the age of 11 is quite a challenge. Pomona is very grateful that the Hogwarts freshmen can at least sit on the bench and eat properly. Seeing the two "monkeys" jumping up and down, she began to sincerely Lamented the hardships of the parents who trained them to be "human".

That family made the Potions Professor, who was in a good mood, start exuding terrible magic pressure again. He drank the bean soup quietly, and his expression looked very calm, but she extremely doubted whether he would pull out his wand in the next second and give it to him. A lesson for those two "monkeys".

"Why don't they travel by a fireplace," she murmured, chopping up lamb chops from her plate.

"Little Red Riding Hood" doesn't wear a witch hat now, but "Little Puppet" hasn't stopped telling lies, as evidenced by his hooked nose.

With such a dirty mind, it's no wonder he got kicked in the head by a unicorn as a kid.

"Draco didn't use the fireplace to travel much when he was a kid," Severus said dryly. "Lucius and Sissy were afraid he would disappear."

"what?"

"Not all little wizards are as lucky as Harry Potter. Someone will save them at critical moments." Severus sneered. "In the second year, he mispronounced his address, and the fireplace sent him to Knockturn Alley."

"Oh." Pomona had an epiphany.

There are so many black wizards in Germany, no one knows if they will accidentally break into their homes.

After the train passed Eisenberg, it entered the wealthy area, and the castles hidden in the forest were as luxurious as Malfoy Manor.

Pomona looked at the flower earrings on the woman across the way. They looked fabulous, but she didn't wear them.

"Good afternoon." At this moment, Chef Joseph suddenly appeared beside them. He rubbed his hands, looking eager for the next conversation. "Are you two satisfied with your lunch?"

"Very good." Pomona said after taking a look at Severus' face. "This is the best I've ever had on the train."

"It's my honor." Joseph bowed to Pomona. "I heard that the two of you are passengers on the previous train."

"You're well-informed." Severus said slickly, "Who told you?"

"I love making friends who appreciate what you two do."

"It's just a little effort." Pomona said modestly.

"That's right, it's easy." Joseph said, taking out a bottle of champagne from behind as if by magic. "What do you guys think of a bottle of table wine?"

Rose champagne, champagne rose, they are always indispensable for a romantic date.

Pomona didn't like wine, and since the rowdy family appeared, the girl who played the harp disappeared, and she was in no mood to drink and celebrate.

"Is this a treat or am I going to pay for it?" Severus asked bluntly.

"Of course it's a banquet. After passing the next mountain pass, we will enter the territory of vampires." Joseph said in a low voice, "I don't want to be sucked by them."

"Put it down," Severus said with a pleasant smile.

Joseph opened the champagne very skillfully, and with a bang, the cork popped out by itself, and he poured wine into three wine glasses.

"To Madam's beauty." Joseph said high, holding his glass.

"To your beauty." Severus said with a smile.

After Joseph took a sip of champagne, Severus followed suit, and Pomona decided not to touch that glass of wine, someone must stay sober.

"Ah, when I was young, I also wanted to go on honeymoon like you two, but unfortunately I didn't have a lover at that time, I really envy you two."

"We're not young anymore," Pomona said with a smile.

Now she looks in her forties, a middle-aged honeymoon couple, always feeling less energetic than young people.

"You have a lover now?" Severus asked curiously.

"It's a pity, now that I'm married, I have no money or time for my honeymoon." Joseph shrugged. "I once quit my favorite cigars to save money. Later, someone told me that the money was not saved. It was earned, and that opened my eyes."

"How do you make money?" Severus smirked like he was genuinely interested.

"Have you ever heard of medicated diet? It is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, but it is not a real medicine. It has a nourishing effect." Joseph rubbed his beard and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"Can you introduce me?" Severus asked.

Joseph glanced at the lively family, lowered his voice and said, "I strongly recommend a miscellaneous fish soup, you will find it very delicious."

"What kind of fish is in that soup?" Severus asked meaningfully.

"Lamorra fish."

"Oh, my God." Pomona exclaimed.

It is illegal to catch Lamora fish, it is said that eating it can replenish magic power, and the International Federation of Wizards has issued many laws to prohibit the capture, but some people still eat it despite the prohibition, at least Severus seems to be moved.

"We can't do that," Pomona said, looking at him. "That kind of fish is going extinct."

"Even if we don't eat it, they will." Severus tilted his head to indicate to the next table.

Pomona took a look at Joseph, felt that Severus should not appear to be counting in front of him, and planned to ask him to leave.

"You should try something new, ma'am, this is your honeymoon trip." Joseph shamelessly promoted.

She was half dead with rage.

Again, she is not a vegetarian, but she is against the illegal eating of rare wild animals!

"Let's discuss it again." Severus smiled at Joseph.

"Well, you can call me anytime." Joseph looked at Severus meaningfully and said, "Madame's opinion is the most important."

When he was gone, Severus stopped smiling.

He drank green bean soup in silence.

"You don't want to discuss what happened with me?"

"No." He said angrily, "If you don't want it, I won't force you."

"Then what was it just now?" She stomped on him under the table.

He immediately smiled ambiguously and triumphantly.

"I know you're being duplicity, saying 'no'..."

"Shut up!" she yelled angrily.

He didn't take her warning seriously at all, still smiling complacently.

While they were talking, Joseph and the man at the next table shook hands with a smile, and it looked like they had struck a deal.

The woman reprimanded her sons fiercely, and Pomona suddenly felt that the crystal flower earrings on her ears were not so pretty.
