Chapter 573: A Different Brother
Tonight's banquet for representatives of various forces is considered the official scene of this incident. Beauxbatons always pays attention to the rules, and is always so step-by-step, even the receptions and banquets are arranged in strict accordance with the old etiquette.
Seeing the ostentation inside and outside the Beauxbaton Auditorium, Maca secretly sighed—it turned out that the previous dinner was really just a dinner.
Beauxbaton's financial resources are world-renowned, and most of them come from the donation of Nicole Flamel, an alumnus. It is no wonder that many forces are flocking to that legacy.
Before entering the door just now, Maka discovered that a large entrance tent had been set up at the main entrance of the auditorium. The velvet curtain with a blue background and gold trim was dotted with a large number of golden stars. If you look carefully, you can find that those stars are all made of real gold, and they look extremely brilliant under the bright magic lights.
After he entered, a banquet hall that was more magnificent than the usual auditorium immediately caught his eyes.
A large piece of dark blue hangings like the Beauxbaton school emblem hangs from the high ceiling, with some beautiful folds placed on the stone pillars and walls; golden silk ribbons can be seen everywhere, turning left and right The color matching windows are embellished to make them look more magnificent and colorful; of course, there is also the soft carpet under the feet. Warm atmosphere.
Like Hogwarts, Beauxbaton's auditorium used long tables, and the tablecloths on them had been replaced with a more suitable color tone today. The dots of starlight caused by magic shone slightly on the tablecloth, echoing the huge school badge in the deepest part of the hall.
Yes, Beauxbaton's school coat of arms is composed of two golden wands crossing vertically to form the main body, and three shining gold stars spew out from the tip of each wand.
Right now, the dinner party has just arrived at the entrance time, and guests from many parties are entering the venue one after another. It can be seen that those wizards are standing together in twos and threes, chatting casually.
Haven't we talked enough in the past two days?
Maca shook her head,
Shuttled through the crowd, and walked towards the innermost side with Fanny. Under the huge school badge, Mrs. Maxim was having half-hearted courtesies with some more important wizards, and some of the guests who just arrived today also went to say hello at this time.
That's right, the brothers and sisters of the Hohenheim family are also there at the moment!
How many Galleons does it cost to host such a dinner party? Maca sighed softly while casually admiring the rich and powerful decorations around him.
Nowadays, he has several potion sales outlets in the black market in the British magic world, and he can be regarded as a little rich guy. But compared with this kind of scene, he is obviously not enough to watch!
Beauxbaton's financial resources are very well-known in the world of magic, Fanny also affirmed, On this point alone, even if it is compared with our Blois Castle, it is not much inferior.
A school that can compete for wealth with an ancient wizarding family with rich heritage is undoubtedly quite amazing. Of course, if one seriously compares the two, Beauxbaton will definitely lose.
Maca and Fanny chatted casually, and walked to the open space where Madam Maxim was sitting.
Oh, Mr. McLean— Mrs. Maxim immediately spotted Maca, After the dinner, the dance will start soon! You are the youngest of the distinguished guests invited by Beauxbatons I'm here... I believe many female students are trying their best to sneak in and dance with you! How are you doing, have you found a dance partner for tonight?
Ma'am, you are joking. I am not the youngest. Maka glanced at the little sister of the Hohenheim family who was still standing beside her, but the other party looked away, as if pretending not to see him. As for the partner, Madam may Forget, I brought my friends this time.
As he spoke, he gestured towards Fanny beside him. Fanny was taken aback when she heard the words—although she heard that Beauxbaton had plans to hold a dance, she never expected that Maca would find herself as a dance partner.
To be honest, it has nothing to do with some beauty. If it is on weekdays, for young people, the ball is always an event to enhance the relationship between men and women. But in the current occasion, the invitation to the ball is usually a very purposeful communication or tentative behavior.
Most of the people present are important members of the subordinate forces, regardless of whether they are wizards or witches. From Madam Maxim's words just now, it can be known that, in principle, Beauxbaton's students are not allowed to participate in this dance today, so the meaning is self-evident.
Therefore, as far as the purpose of Maca's trip is concerned, it should invite a woman from another force to slide onto the dance floor together. At that time, whether it is friendship or routine, it will be a good choice.
Of course, maybe Mr. McLean just invited himself to his first dance as a courtesy?
Fanny didn't speak, but many thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. She was even thinking, if she seized the time to go back to Blois Castle, would she still have time to bring Willie here?
However, this is actually because of the relationship between positions, which made Fanny think too complicated.
Maca's point of departure is actually very simple - Fanny is the woman he brought over this time, if he doesn't ask his female partner to dance at the ball, it is obviously a very rude behavior. As formal as Beauxbaton's dinner and dance today, Maca will naturally abide by the etiquette rules, after all, this is Madam Maxime's territory.
Anyway, Mrs. Maxime can be regarded as his and Hagrid's friends, let's not talk about saving face for friends, at least you can't lose face, right?
McLean, are you okay?
Maca was talking and laughing politely with Mrs. Maxim, when suddenly he heard the voice of the fat young master from the Hohenheim family. He turned his head to take a look, only to find that the fat man had squeezed behind him treacherously.
What's the matter? What's the matter? Maca asked suspiciously.
Sarah...uh, I mean, my sister didn't do anything to you, did she? The fat man looked him up and down, and said worriedly, You are the one whom the old man has repeatedly told you to meet, you can't... I Let me tell you, my sister is not bad at heart, she just... just likes to blow things up and people...
As he talked, he seemed to think that no one would believe what he said, so he shook his head in the end.
Okay... well... Anyway, you seem to be fine? the fat man hesitated, Didn't she blow you up with those things?
You mean this? Maca looked at the fat man, and from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of his younger sister Sarah looking in this direction, but she looked away in an instant, Don't worry! Your sister is very nice...
After the fat man heard it, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Sarah, and then he found that Sarah was also looking at him. Seeing the peaceful smile on his younger sister's face, the fat on Fatty's face couldn't help shaking.
Yeah yeah...it's pretty good, great! He agreed dryly, and then continued, Okay, I'll go there first...what, when the dance starts, you Can you invite my sister? You see, you also said that she is very good, um... If you grow up, she will definitely be more beautiful! If you think it is okay, then start to cultivate your relationship from now on. It's okay for her to give it to you!
The fat man's words became less and less decent as he spoke, and his voice became lower and lower, and finally he almost forcibly moved close to Maca's ear. It seemed that he wished that someone could take his life-threatening sister away ahead of time!
After speaking, he patted Maca on the shoulder vigorously, his face full of excitement.
Maca smiled at him, and also patted the fat man on the shoulder.
Okay! He said with a smile, I'll go talk to your sister later and ask her what she thinks of what your brother said...
Hey! Don't...cough, the fat man grinned, suppressing the timidity welling up in his heart, and pretending to be calm, I mean, forget it... Sarah's age It's still too young, but it's far from the time to find a boyfriend. Besides, um... I, as an older brother, can't bear it... Oh, this is really...
It can be seen that this fat man and Ron are also the brother of a younger sister, but their thoughts are completely opposite. Ron showed great refusal for Ginny's love affair. He is not someone he absolutely agrees with, and he will not let go of his sister. But this fat man is different. He is very much looking forward to the day when his sister gets married as soon as possible, so that he can get out of the sea of suffering early.
Under Maca's seemingly invisible run, Fatty Dang was defeated. After he chatted with Maca a few more times, he hastily said that he was rude, and then rolled back to Sarah.
Sir, I think that Master Hohenheim seems to be very afraid of his sister? Seeing the fat man leave, Fanny said softly to Maca.
Maybe it's not scary at all! Maca shook her head slightly, Well, maybe a little bit, but the key should not be whether you're afraid or not. I'm more curious about what my sister thinks...
While he was speaking, the brother and sister of the Hohenheim family had already greeted Mrs. Maxim, and then turned around to find their own seats. Maca looked at the big and small backs, but found it more and more interesting.
Find a suitable time another day, and go to Hohenheim's house to meet their father! These children are so interesting, their father must have a story! He couldn't help thinking.
