The Wizarding Journey of Hogwarts

Chapter 866 Growth and maturity

"No, little Al shouldn't be hungry yet. He just woke up and said he missed his mother."

Bell put the personal terminal in front of little Al, so that little Al could clearly see the mother on the screen.

"Ahh~!"

n(*≧▽≦*)n
"Oh! Baby! Mom misses you too!"

Seeing her youngest son, Elena immediately put down the work at hand and rubbed against the screen.

"But mom still has some work to do. When I go back at night, mom will play with you again, okay?"

"Porphyrin~!"

Al made a dissatisfied voice.

(Actually Bell sent it.)
"Mom, you see that little Al is not happy anymore. If you want me to tell you, those things are almost enough. Put the cake there and let those people share it among themselves."

Of course, it is impossible for Bell, a 'big idler', to not know about the most important affairs of his family.In fact, even if he didn't want to know, his father would drag him and talk non-stop every day.

To be honest, Bell didn't really support the arbiter-like status chosen by his father.

According to my father's idea, it is up to the Menethil family to divide the existing interests in detail, and distribute the high-quality parts to their supporters and collaborators, and divide the rest of the poorer fields. To wizards less hostile to House Menethil.

In this way, wizards who are close to the Menethil family can be more firmly tied to the Menethil family's chariot, and at the same time, through this behavior of dividing interests, the Menethil family can be established. A lofty and detached position.

To coordinate the balance of interests among many forces, especially many of these forces are pro-Menethil faction, is a very laborious and laborious task.In order to satisfy everyone, William held a small meeting every day and a big meeting every three days, negotiating with the leaders of other forces every day.

But in Bell's view, his father's approach was purely thankless.For the benefits, let those people divide it themselves. If they are not satisfied with the final distribution result, they can turn the table over and start over.Everyone is a smart person, and with two waves of hellfire raining down, Bell believes that those guys will understand what to do.

As for the status of the Menethil family, whether they are detached or not, they are here. If other people can reach it, then come, who is afraid of whom.

If he follows his simple and rude guiding ideology, Bell estimates that the family's rectification can be completed within two months.Even including the time to flip the table to read the file and start over, it will not exceed half a year.

However, unfortunately, William did not approve of Bell's behavior of flipping the table at every turn, so it seems that it has been almost two years, and William and Elena are still too busy to touch the ground.

"Oh~! I think so too. But your father doesn't agree, what can I do?"

Elena rubbed the corners of her eyes wearily, she always felt that she seemed to have crow's feet recently.

It has to be said that although at home, Elena often has a very strong look, and she will defy William if she disagrees with her, but when it comes to family affairs, she can fully deserve the title of "good wife".

In fact, according to Elena's personality, she undoubtedly agrees with her son's simple and rude guiding ideology.But after William made it clear, she has been helping her husband with affairs without complaint, even after giving birth to little Al, she didn't take a few days off.

"Well, I'll persuade your father later and let him take less time to worry about it."

By now, the magic world's cake has actually been almost divided up.In Elena's opinion, there is really no need to pay attention to the leftovers.Let those guys snatch it by themselves, anyway, it is impossible for any major trouble to happen again.

"Take little Al with you!"

Bell made a plan.

He really couldn't believe that his Alsace could not cure his father.Make him anxious, but he really dared to lend [Frostmourne] to his younger brother!
"Okay, take my little one too."

Elena said with a smile.

Looking at the two precious sons, one big and one small, on the screen, she felt that all the fatigue disappeared in an instant, and her whole body was full of energy again.

After hanging up the communication, Bell accompanied his younger brother to the garden for a walk. It was not until the evening when his mother came back that he handed little Al to his mother so that he could have a rest.

At night, Bell sat at the desk and read the progress report sent in the afternoon, sometimes nodding with satisfaction, sometimes frowning slightly.

Suddenly, a faint fragrance came into Bell's nostrils from behind.Take a deep breath, even though he is very familiar with this fragrance, Bell still never tires of hearing it.

"Honey, are you in trouble again?"

Hermione, who had just taken a shower, hugged Bell from behind, and gently smoothed the wrinkles between Bell's brows with her fingers.

"Some small problems, I will go there tomorrow, and they will be solved in two hours."

Bell put down the personal terminal in his hand, stood up and hugged Hermione by the waist, and walked towards the bed in the middle of the bedroom.

After some cloud and rain, Bell hugged the tired Hermione, leaned into her ear, and said softly:
"Honey, it's almost time for you to make up your mind."

After graduating from Hogwarts, it didn't take long for Hermione to live in Bell's house, and it has been more than a year now.To be honest, living together for more than a year is really not short. Even Hermione's mother secretly approached him several times, asking him when he planned to marry Hermione.

But the problem is, it's not really that he doesn't want to marry Hermione, but that Hermione's heart knot has always been unsolved, and he really has nothing to do except wait.

"...Okay, then when you go over tomorrow, bring me with you, I'll go and experience it first."

After hesitating again and again, she really couldn't think of a reason to refuse, so Hermione finally let go.

Over the past year, she has experienced many jobs, including clerical work in the Ministry of Magic, opening a shop in Knockturn Alley, taking care of magical animals and plants in a farm, making potions and selling magic props, and so on.It can be said that as long as it is a common job, she has experienced it for a long or short period of time.

However, after the initial novelty passed, none of these jobs brought her happiness, and even made her feel unbearably boring and boring.

In the end, after going around in a big circle, the question came back to the original point, that is, whether she should stay with Bell to help with affairs.

To be honest, in the past, she really hoped to be with Bell all the time. At that time, she was still very envious of Senior Penello's secretary job, thinking about replacing it all day long.

But at some point, her mind changed.Not only did she not want to be with Bell anymore, she even didn't want to work in the Menethil family's estate.

It's not that she doesn't love Bell anymore, but that she doesn't want people around her to give her extra care because of her relationship with Bell, which will make her feel like she's just a canary.

She wants to use her own ability to make some achievements and let others know that she is an excellent witch and a witch worthy of Bell.The reason why she is with Bell is just because she loves each other deeply, not because of any conspiracy.

It was precisely because of this knot that she never agreed to Bell's marriage proposal, so that the elders of the two families thought that there was something wrong between her and Bell.

Now, after having really struggled around in the wizarding world, and seeing all kinds of things in the world, Hermione has gradually matured.

She realized how naive her stubbornness was, and at the same time realized her love for Bell more clearly again.So she didn't plan to be stubborn anymore.

Of course, this doesn't mean that she gave up proving herself, it's just a different way and a different goal.This time, she won't prove anything to others, she wants to prove it to herself.
