Chapter 39 Engagement
No matter what Harry tried to persuade, Snape did not visit the Potters.
Snape continued his part-time job as a pharmacy apprentice during the holidays, and he had to make money to support himself, not only for food, but also for textbooks.
Snape was working day and night for his livelihood, and the Potter family was also busy for James' happiness.
After school starts again, James and Lily will enter the seventh grade, and the relationship between the two has always been good and stable.Charles intends to settle down the two children and discuss the issue of engagement.But Doria's attitude was not very positive, and she hoped to wait until James graduated to talk about it.
But James was in a hurry, and Lily was pretty, smart, gentle, and cheerful, and he got along very well with him.He has been chasing her for several years, and finally got hold of Lili. He was afraid that Lily would run away with other men.
Harry didn't have any objections, because he knew that James and Lily would get married sooner or later. Their sons were born in 80, and the marriage took only two years.
But James couldn't wait, he was very anxious, "Mom, I want to marry Lily, it's best to get married right away! Don't hesitate, where can I find such a good girl?"
Doria sighed, she glanced at Charles, and then at the impatient eldest son, "You are only 17 years old, James, you are still too young to understand how long a lifetime is. I think You'd better be careful and wait until after graduation to talk about it, ok dear?"
"I'm grown up, Mom! I know what I'm doing, and I love Lily!" James scratched his hair. "Say a word for me, Dad!"
Charles looked at his wife and son, and finally chose to watch the show with his little son in his arms. He said tactfully, "James, no matter what you say, we are older than you. Sometimes, you have to listen to us. Then Good for you."
Doria glared at Charles, "Lily is a good girl, we all know that, otherwise I wouldn't agree with you to associate with her. But I still say that, James, what you think is good now may not be very good." Years later, you still feel good. Finding a partner is like buying leather shoes, you must never buy them if they don’t fit at all. You can broaden your horizons and get to know other girls—”
"Mom!" James stood up abruptly, "I said it! I love Lily, love her now, and always will! I'm not crazy, I know how Lily makes me feel, and I won't look Others, even if the other party is a fairy or a queen!"
Doria was silent, she didn't speak anymore, she just lowered her eyes and let out a sigh of relief.
Harry couldn't help but move closer to Doria's side, "Mom...?"
Doria hugged her youngest son, and gently stroked his hair, "It would be great if James was half as sensible as you..."
James looked at the kind mother and obedient younger brother in front of him, and widened his eyes, "Am I ignorant? And Mom, didn't you always like Lily? When she marries into our family, she will be justified. has become your daughter."
In fact, James didn't understand women's hearts at all. It was Merlin's help that he was able to get Lily so smoothly - he parachuted a Harry to be their matchmaker.
Doria ignored James, just looked at Harry intently, and smoothed his messy hair with his fingers, "I don't like anyone, all my love is given to my children, there is not even a single cent left I don't give it away to anyone else. The only reason I'm being kind to Lily is because—my son loves her."
James looked at his mother helplessly, as if his throat was choked by a fishbone.
Doria glanced at James, "If you really love her, if you can guarantee that you will never regret it for the rest of your life, then you can marry her, and your father will arrange for you." After finishing speaking, she kissed her Lee's forehead, stood up and went upstairs.
Charles patted James, who was still a little dazed, "Don't worry, son, I will visit Mr. and Mrs. Evans." He walked upstairs quickly, chasing Doria.
James nodded happily, but when he looked at Harry, his smile disappeared unconsciously.He threw himself into the sofa, "Am I really ignorant?"
Just as Harry was about to speak, he heard Doria's voice coming from the corridor upstairs. The quarrel was not loud and intermittent, but Harry could hear it clearly: "...he is the eldest son, you didn't say Do you hope he can marry a daughter from a pure-blooded family... I will do all the bad things... I am an evil mother, so you can always be your loving father!"
Harry glanced towards the second floor, then looked back at James, "I think you'd better go and buy something Mom likes."
"I think so." James looked at Harry pitifully, "Shall we go together?"
Harry shrugged nonchalantly.
In any case, the matter of James and Lily was probably settled, and the Evans family arrived at Potter Manor about a week later.
Lily didn't seem to be prepared for it at all, and she seemed a little out of her mind throughout the night.Doria warmly entertained the Evans family as usual, as if she had forgotten about the little annoyance before.But Harry knew that Doria was a vengeful mother, and James would suffer in the future.
The dinner went very well. Mr. Evans and Charles went into the study, probably to discuss the engagement, while Doria was in charge of entertaining the female relatives and chatting with Mrs. Evans about the current fashion trends.
The Evans family is also considered middle class in the Muggle world, with real estate and savings, and a pretty good life.Although the two wives live in different worlds, it is every woman's nature to pursue beauty, and the two of them actually had a lively chat.
Penny Evans was there too, and she looked a little different from what Harry remembered.James and Harry entertained them and showed them around the yard.
James and Lily walked together, quite intimately, while Harry and Penny Evans were left alone.
The young Penny didn't seem to have much resistance to the magic world. Although he wasn't very excited, he always looked at everything around him with curiosity.So, she also developed some interest in Harry.
Harry was terrified and got rid of her on the pretext of a stomachache. He didn't want to have a son named Dada Potter in the future, that would be too scary.
In the end, the two families shared a photo album of their two children.
Doria showed Mrs. Evans pictures of her sons, especially James, who had won, holding the school Quidditch trophy, surrounded by the Gryffindors.You know, their son is a great athlete. He has won the Quidditch trophy for six consecutive years, and the trophy for the seventh year will definitely be in his pocket.
People always have a favorable impression of young people who love sports. Mr. Evans is more and more pleasing to his eyes on this prospective son-in-law, not to mention the family background of the Potter family, stable income, and kind hostess.
At nine o'clock, the two families left the Potter Manor, and Harry appeared before everyone said byebye.
The first meeting between the two families ended perfectly. Doria looked at James and said bitterly, "James, I hope that in the near future, after you become a father, you will realize that what you said to me a few days ago How hurtful it is."
Harry turned his back to Doria, shrugged his shoulders with wide eyes, showed a helpless expression at James, turned around and fell into his mother's warm embrace.Doria hugged Harry and sighed, rubbing the little Harry lovingly.
The holidays passed in the midst of James and Lily's wedding planning, and James kept glowing like the rising sun, with a goofy smile shining blindingly.But Harry was not so lucky. The eldest son's marriage was settled, and Doria began to think about Harry's marriage.
Like a frost-beaten eggplant, Harry walked beside James Little Sun Potter dimly.
James and Lily meet at the station of the Hogwarts Express.The two little suns got together, and the heat caused Harry to flee.
Harry got into the car, intending to find an empty box, or join the marauding bachelorette trio.
Snape was sitting in a box, and it was strange that there were people around him.
Harry stood outside the door, carefully watching the situation inside through the glass window.They're all Slytherins, and they're all seniors.Harry saw Barty Crouch Jr., and Regulus Black, and several others whose names Harry couldn't name.
They seemed to have spotted Harry, and they stared warily at Harry outside the door, but they didn't come out. They were very busy and didn't want to cause trouble.
If they don't want to provoke right and wrong, it means that they themselves are in the middle of right and wrong.
Harry's heart beat faster, he took half a step back, glanced at Snape, and walked away quickly.
He didn't know what Snape was planning, nor what they were planning, but he knew that it must have something to do with Voldemort.
Seventh grade, now he is in seventh grade, the agreement with Dumbledore is about to expire, and there is only one year left for him to be happy and happy.A year later, Snape will join the Death Eaters, and Voldemort will become more and more crazy. It all started a year later.
Harry randomly found an empty box and walked in, and slammed the door shut. The glass on the door rattled, but Harry didn't care about that at all.He sat down and ran through his hair vigorously.
For the first time, he felt the urgency of time, as if there was a monster chasing you desperately, and if you were not careful, you would lose your bones.
Snape continued his part-time job as a pharmacy apprentice during the holidays, and he had to make money to support himself, not only for food, but also for textbooks.
Snape was working day and night for his livelihood, and the Potter family was also busy for James' happiness.
