Chapter 174 Discussion
In the evening, after Snape came over for dinner, he walked back with Marne and others. On the way, he kept explaining to Margaery the preparation method of a certain potion that sounded very powerful.
Lucius didn't stay long. Marn originally thought that the Malfoy family would stay here for a few days, but Lucius was always a little suspicious.
He wondered every second if someone from his past as a Death Eater would sneak into the area and surprise everyone.
After dinner in the evening, the family directly activated Marne's special door key, left Hogsmeade and returned to their safe haven...
Hermione did not go to their family gathering. When the others came back, she was lying in front of the dining table writing and drawing on a piece of paper, with a sad look on her face.
Esther went over and took a look, but it was all meaningless. She asked curiously: "Hermione, what are you doing?"
She was silent for a long time, and then she said in a low voice, a little embarrassed: "I went to Professor McGonagall to take a test similar to Margaery's..."
"Failed? That's not surprising. Being a teacher is more than just good grades..." Esther comforted her.
"The topic is too strange...there are many questions like who should be dealt with when two little wizards fight."
"How did you write it?"
"I wrote to deal with the one who caused trouble first... but the next question is what should I do if A provokes the first blow and B strikes first..."
"How did you answer the question?" Margaery next to her interrupted and asked.
"If I write, A will be deducted 50 points, and B will be deducted 10 points... Professor McGonagall gave me a cross... Margaery, did you have such a question at that time?"
Margaery hung the light coat she had not had time to change out of after entering the house on the hanger at the door. After turning around, she said: "I have a similar question. The answer is to deduct 5 points for A and 10 points for B. At the same time, I will inform Their dean...Hermione, except the dean and the principal, no one is qualified to add or subtract so many points at once..."
"But…"
"You want to ask why B has more points deducted, right? Because doing something is another nature. In fact, I even wrote that if both parties use magic wands, I will stop them directly and hand them over to their dean. "
After confirming that Hermione was willing to work as a lower-grade teacher in the school for a few years, Margaery began to teach her how to deal with various problems, and Hermione took out a small notebook and started recording it as if listening to a lecture.
Margaery's hair was inherited from Ryan and was quite thick, not to mention Hermione's. The two of them looked like two large velvets with their heads lowered and muttering together.
"Esther, why don't you think any professor comes to you or me?" Ma En looked at them and said to Esther next to him.
Esther rolled her eyes: "What can the two of us teach them, puppy love?"
"Actually, it's not impossible. Just look at Harry and Ron..."
"Maybe the way they interact with their girlfriends is normal."
"Would you like to try it on?"
"Eh~ Forget it." Esther shuddered.
Ma En thought for a while, stared at Esther's lips and licked his lips: "Ron's method might be good..."
The two faces were getting closer and closer, and just when they were about to touch, the glass of the window made a "bang bang bang" sound, and something knocked it.
Looking up, it was Hedwig.
Ma En sighed, walked over, opened the window, and took a note from its feet.
"What's wrong?" Esther asked.
Ma En raised the note in his hand and said, "Harry and Ron plan to come over tomorrow afternoon to play... um... with their respective girlfriends..."
He tore off a piece of paper from the note beside the door, wrote "No problem" and asked Hedwig to take it back. Marn came over and squeezed back into the single sofa where Esther was sitting: "They are really boring..."
Esther nodded in agreement: "Yes."
"The person in this school who is least qualified to say this is you, Ma En."
Margery raised her head and said something, while Hermione next to her looked at Esther, who was peeling grapes for Marne, turned around and said: "Margery, you are wrong, there is obviously Esther." .”
"Oh, sorry, I always thought they were conjoined twins named Marne Esther Langley."
"Yes, sometimes I really worry that when I wake up, I will find Esther making soup with a pregnant belly and a kind face, and then there is a notice of their expulsion on the door."
Margaery nodded in agreement: "Indeed, and I don't think there is any need to worry too much, because it is useless to worry. This is almost bound to happen, but they should not be expelled. Don't forget, Old Wald is still the vice principal. Yes, he will help."
"And Esther's guardian seems to be Dumbledore." Hermione agreed with Margaery's statement.
"I think... we may not be suitable to stay here..." Esther opened her mouth, feeling a little unable to refute...
Ma En shrugged, got up and took Esther back to the room.
After they left, Hermione complained: "I really don't know what qualifications the two of them have to ridicule others in this regard..."
"Stop talking...I'm more worried about finding out that I'm going to be an aunt when I wake up tomorrow morning..." Margaery also let out a small sigh.
The two people who returned to the room had subconsciously forgotten the topic and started studying Draco instead.
He is really abnormal today.
During the day, he had to go to Hogwarts for no reason, and he left in such a hurry at night. When Lucius said that they had to go back, Marn could clearly feel that he seemed to have put down something on his mind, with a relaxed look on his face.
"I think we should tell Hermione if Margaery is still here, there must be something wrong with this matter." Esther said.
Marn shook his head: "You can tell Hermione, but wait until you tell Margaery. She is too sensitive. Even if you finally find out what Draco did, don't tell her unless you have no choice. She looks like Ryan , but her character is actually like Miley. Family is the most important bottom line. I can’t imagine how sad she will be once she learns that Draco has done something bad.”
Esther thought for a moment: "Then I'll pick a time to talk to Hermione... But don't hide it too much from Margaery. If she finds some traces or needs her, tell her that she has the right to know. this matter."
"She will definitely find out...but she won't necessarily ask. If she does ask...then let me tell you."
Esther nodded, not to mention that she and Ma En were complained about being conjoined twins, even if they got married in the future, some words she said were not very appropriate.
"Okay, it's time for us to do our own thing." After the discussion, Ma En said.
"what's up?"
"Just downstairs..."
Esther: "..."
