MTL - Harry Potter’s Morning Light-Chapter 2756 Song of the Swan (4)

  Chapter 2756 The Song of the Swan (4)

   At noon, a housewife is preparing lunch for the family.

  Because of the hot weather, cooking near the fire source is even hotter. What is even more worrying is the crying of children. Two older children are chasing and fighting in the already small house.

This scene has nothing to do with "happiness" anyway, but it may be what Ginny Weasley had to face when she was born, when Bill was 11 years old and "finally" could leave home for Hogg Watts went to boarding school.

   "Be quiet!" The housewife in the story yelled at the children, "If anyone is disobedient, the wizard will come and arrest them at noon."

  If it was Molly, she would threaten to send the children to Aunt Muriel's house. But such threats are useless, the children still go their own way, those who should cry continue to cry, and those who should make trouble continue to make trouble.

   "What is a High Noon Wizard?"

  Severus asked while wiping his hands while looking at the fairy tale book in her hand.

   "A wizard who shows up at noon." Pomona replied "Muggles seem to think wizards only show up at midnight."

   "What will he do?" Severus asked.

   "Muggles thought they would take children away," Pomona said, "but that was before magic schools were established, and wizards from Eastern Europe would travel around looking for magically gifted children as apprentices."

   "Wish them luck." Severus said, after wiping his hands clean, he took a bottle of soda from the "fridge".

  Pomona can't forget the Coke at Lily's house, and Severus can't forget the soda at Spider's End. Childhood memories last a long time in a person's life, whether they are pleasant or unpleasant.

  Tobia and Irene quarreled, often because the electrical appliances at home were broken, regardless of whether the reason for the electrical failure was because of Irene.

   Every time he saw Irene teaching Severus magic, he would also be very annoyed, asking them in a sarcastic tone, who paid to fix the broken electrical appliances. Severus probably didn't notice it, how much he resembled his father.

  A writer named Joseph Conrad once said: It is unnecessary to attribute evil to supernatural factors, and human beings are enough to carry out all kinds of evil.

  The stepmother and sister who killed the girl also had no magic. On the contrary, if no wizard appeared, the king would be blinded by the mother and daughter, and the truth would be buried with thicker and thicker leaves over time.

  Pomona took a block of ice from the glass.

  No matter how deep a secret is buried, there will always be patient diggers who will dig it out.

  In fact, ice, like glass, can be used to make convex lenses, which can be used to light matches.

   But it must be below the freezing point. The fallen leaves are mentioned many times in the story, and the girl is still bathing under the waterfall, which indicates that it may not be a very cold autumn.

  Ice cubes feel cold and bone-chilling in the hand, they can’t be like stones, isn’t it because of the Freezing Fire Curse that the flames of the fire torture don’t hurt so much on the body?

It was midsummer when the dementors attacked Harry and Sirius, and the shallow lake was like a pensieve. After the dementors left, the temperature returned to normal, and there were still silvery substances floating in the lake. There was no difference between the silvery gas that spewed from the end of the wand and the one that was drawn from the temple with the wand.

   The Pensieve was not a rare magical item, and Severus used tears as a carrier to give Harry Potter his memory.

  It's a pity that there is no Pensieve here for her experiments.

   So Pomona put the ice back in the glass.

  The sound of the ice cubes hitting the glass was crisp and pleasant in the room, making it even more empty.

  Children might not like their kind of family, but the Weasleys' family is so lively and lively that they look happy and warm. Harry likes that kind of family atmosphere very much.

  A icy and slippery thing suddenly got into her clothes.

   "Oh!" She screamed in horror.

   She jumped up and down for a while, and an ice mouse fell from her clothes to the ground.

   "Severus Snape!" she yelled and rushed out, who else in this place could play tricks but him?

  The culprit waited for her to catch him, as if the roles were reversed, he was the adventurous student, and she was the teacher who caught the students who violated the school rules.

  —————————————————————

   Not long after Giuseppina and her violinist lover fled to Russia, she started performing again, as if it were a long-planned tour. Many Russian aristocrats came to support her, which is as popular as French opera in Berlin and Munich. In this era, as long as it is related to Napoleon, it will become unusual, not to mention that Giuseppina herself sings very well. If she came to sing the Queen of the Night, she might be able to sing those three at the welcome party. The sopranos of the queen of the night compare.

  After taking a nap, Georgiana felt that her mood had stabilized a lot. At least when she thought of Miss Campini, she no longer had the feeling of urgency.

In fact, there is no difference between Giuseppina and Miss Campini. They both met Bonaparte during the Italian War, but Georgiana didn't know why she targeted Miss Campini so much. Maybe it was because of Giuseppe. Pinner at least had the courage to elope, and she managed to get to Russia.

   Dinner was champagne with seafood. She chose a champagne-colored silk dress as her dress tonight. This was designed by Bertin based on the ancient Greek style.

  Louis XV paid his maids four pairs of shoes a week, three feet of ribbon a day for shawls, and two feet of taffeta a day for covering baskets for gloves and fans.

  Georgianna doesn’t have that much money. Fortunately, she knows the merchants in Lyon. They have already discussed with Bertin how to supply the goods. Girls only need to go to the tailor to get the clothes they want to wear.

  The girls are very happy to be able to wear new clothes. They don't have the old-fashioned serious faces in Paris at all, screaming and playing like normal girls.

She was paid so little at the time, no wonder the barber left later, not just because she was in the vortex at the time, the former queen's dressing lady, the tip paid for "every" single milk and buns every morning It costs 2000 francs.

  Her hair is not as windless and automatic as Fleur, but very elegant. Wearing a champagne-colored rose is her hair accessory. It is precisely because of these simplicity that more gorgeousness is needed when choosing jewelry.

  At the lakeside of Rambouillet, Georgiana heard the quarrel between Louis and Josephine's niece, who was about to become the princess of Baden, and Napoleon gave her a full set of emerald jewelry for this matter.

  Josephine's natal family was not rich. Even if Louis was sure that he wanted to marry the girl he loved, the woman would not be able to provide so much dowry to match Louis' current status and status.

  So the most sensible choice is to become a bargaining chip in the marriage, at least she doesn't need to worry about preparing to marry the Duke of Baden's dowry.

  If she was not dreaming, how could there be so many jewels for her to choose from.

  She raised her head, looked in the mirror, and stroked the empty neck.

   There was an invisible swan necklace there, and she told him she'd be old and ugly taking it off, but he ripped it off anyway.

   "Choose this one, Madame," said the Duchess of La Rochefoucauld.

   She seems to be planning to take care of Georgiana's jewels instead of her daughter Alice.

   It was given to her by a merchant in Rouen. It was a necklace composed of pearls and fire diamonds.

   "Just this one," she said casually, and Margaret brought the necklace over and tied it for Georgiana.

  She observed the Duchess of La Rochefoucauld through the mirror. She stood with low eyebrows and looked very calm, and did not mention her daughter's marriage plans.

   "Major Desevier doesn't seem to have that meaning, I misunderstood." Georgiana said, "I will clarify."

   "At your disposal," said the Duchess of La Rochefoucauld.

   "I don't mean to make peace." Georgiana said, "Marriage is a personal matter that requires mutual gratification."

  She looked up and looked at Georgiana.

   "Alice has feelings for him because he takes care of you."

   "This silly girl." The Duchess of La Rochefoucauld muttered.

   "I can see it too." Georgiana said, "Girls desperately need someone to rely on when they are at a loss."

  She didn't answer the call.

   "I have a respected elder, when he was sick..."

   "Mr. Smith took care of him?" When Georgiana wanted to call her, the Duchess of La Rochefoucauld tentatively said.

   "Let's go with the flow, I won't interfere with their normal interactions, but I don't want them to have an early intimate relationship."

   "I know that." The Duchess of La Rochefoucauld said, "I have always raised my daughter as a dignified lady."

  Georgianna thought of Alice's brisk appearance when dancing, and felt that she was still a long way from "dignity".

  But she is not a bad girl, she is just a little willful. She was bound by etiquette before, but now she releases her true self.

   "I wish I could be like her," Georgiana said.

  Always be 15 years old, with parents protecting him from wind and rain, carefree.

   "Madame, what's that scroll?" Madame La Rochefoucauld asked as she served her jewels.

  Georgiana looks at the ribbon-tied scroll on the dresser.

   "My Christmas present," she said listlessly.

  The Duchess of La Rochefoucauld seemed eager to open it and see what was written on it.

   "Please help me to see." Georgiana handed it to the Duchess of La Rochefoucauld.

   She didn't answer at all.

   "I want to keep this surprise until Christmas." Georgiana said with a smile, "but I'm afraid there is important information on it."

  The Duchess of La Rochefoucauld took it over.

   Then she gently pulled the ribbon and slowly opened the scroll.

  Georgianna looked at her expression.

  She was slightly surprised, but she was still relatively calm. It didn't seem to be a very shocking thing.

  After reading it, she rolled up the scroll, tied it again with a ribbon, and held it in front of the dressing table.

   "Let's go." Georgiana said, turned and left the lounge.
