Chapter 40 Behind the Strange School Rules

Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
At this moment Ron wanted to cry but had no tears.
He looked at the crumbled wand on the table, then at Douglas.
Ron suppressed the tears in his eyes, pretending to be indifferent:
"Professor, it's all right, it's not your fault.
Anyway, he can no longer use it normally! "
Harry and Hermione didn't know how to comfort Ron for a while.
Douglas shrugged and said helplessly:
"Don't be sad, since I broke it completely, then I will pay you one."
Ron quickly waved his hand and said:
"No, no, it's already broken!"
Seeing Ron's appearance, Douglas said forcefully:
"It makes me sad when you look like this.
How am I going to face Bill and Charlie after ripping apart their brother's wand and leaving it alone?
Besides, the spell experiment itself has consumption, which is normal.
If you didn't give me this wand to experiment with, I wouldn't know the difference between this wand and that wand!
Well, it's such a happy decision. "
After finishing speaking, Douglas winked at Harry and Hermione who were standing aside.
The two soon understood what Douglas meant.
He also joined the team to comfort Ron.
Only Hagrid stood by, eating chicken feet heartlessly.
At the same time, he took a cautious look at the pink umbrella in the corner, and then looked at Douglas with a bit of disdain in his eyes.
While Harry and Hermione stated the facts and reasoned.
Ron's attitude finally relaxed.
Douglas again opportunely said:
"Ron, I told Bill that I was going to give every incoming Weasley a gift.
Unfortunately, I wasn't at Hogwarts when George, Fred, and you were enrolled.
Consider the new wand as your school-to-school gift, and don't tell George and Fred about it.
After all, I didn't intend to give them a second gift! "
When Ron heard it, neither George nor Fred was there.
Immediately accepted Douglas's compensation with a smile on his face.
And promised to keep his two brothers secret.
Hearing that Ron finally agreed, Douglas couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This gift was too much effort.
Although he didn't have much contact with Ron, he relied on the description of Ron in the original book.
Douglas knew very well that Ron was actually a very self-respecting and sensitive person.
Of course, this is not the only reason.
From what he knew of the Weasleys, they were a very polite family.
Give them a gift and they'll want to return it.
So when giving a gift, be sure to consider the other party's economic affordability.
It would be fine if the value of the gift was within the range of the Weasley family's affordability.
Once the value is too high, it will embarrass the Weasley family, and even make their already stretched life even more difficult.
Therefore, every time he gave a gift to the Weasley children, Douglas would choose an appropriate time.
Moreover, he didn't dislike those sweaters that Mrs. Weasley made by himself.
Although, there will be some differences with his aesthetics, Mrs. Weasley is his in this world.
The only elder who still remembers his birthday.
The other is George Dean of the Orphanage.
Of course, the most important thing at the moment is definitely not that the Weasleys can't afford wands.
After all, Douglas didn't ask students to buy his books this year.
The money saved is enough to buy a wand.
Douglas would bet that Ron hadn't dared to tell his family that his wand had been snapped by the Whomping Willow in that crash.
After all, the deterrent effect of the yelling letter on the second day of school is still there.
With the dislike and help of Douglas, the stewed pork vermicelli was quickly prepared.
After all, according to Hagrid's habit, he cut the meat almost as big as Douglas's face.
Just as the meal was about to start, Hagrid mysteriously took out a long bag woven with unicorn hair.
Cheerfully handed it to Douglas.
"Douglas, haven't you always wanted a pair of unicorn horn chopsticks?
Take a look, see if it fits! "
Douglas looked at Hagrid in surprise, and took the bag from his hand.
Open it and see a pair of golden chopsticks inside.
If he remembered correctly, he mentioned this matter when he was talking about unicorns with Hagrid when he was in fifth grade.
Didn't expect it to be so many years later, Hagrid still remembered.
Seeing Douglas, Hagrid waved his hands and said indifferently:
"Just last year, two poor unicorns happened to be killed by mysterious people.
Harry and the others also know about this..."
The three little ones stared straight at the pair of chopsticks.
Ron couldn't help but envy: "If only my wand was like this one!"
Hagrid laughed, and winked at the three little ones:
"I'm afraid you don't know why there is a clause in the Hogwarts school rules, 'It is forbidden to use your own or other people's wands as chopsticks'."
The three little ones nodded in unison.
Harry said: "Before I came to Hogwarts, I didn't even know what chopsticks were!"
Ron said proudly:
"I know, I know, but to be honest, chopsticks are not convenient to use.
Before, my mother would occasionally cook hot pot and use chopsticks.But only the mother in the whole family can use it skillfully.
But I really don't know where my mother learned it. "
Hermione also said curiously:
"I have been curious about this rule since last year, because I have the impression that chopsticks are only used in the east of the Muggle world.
And I found that apart from some Hufflepuff students, not many people at Hogwarts can use chopsticks.
Did Hogwarts ever have oriental students? "
Hagrid didn't speak, but his eyes made the three little ones see that this rule had something to do with Professor Holmes.
Douglas is trying out this pair of Hager chopsticks.
It is longer and thicker than the pair of unicorn horn chopsticks he made himself.
It is very suitable for shabu-shabu.
Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, Douglas gave Hagrid a blank look.
The next time you dine with Hagrid, you can't have other people around, his mouth is too big.
"Actually, that school rule was used in conjunction with another: 'It is forbidden to use a cauldron for cooking hot pot.'
There have been a few unlucky children who accidentally didn't know that sentence when they used their wands as chopsticks to stick into the cauldron, and triggered a spell.
As a result, the pot of hot pot exploded directly, causing several people to live in the school doctor's office...
Well, let's not talk about these sad memories.
Food is right in front of you, how can you talk about what you have and what you don’t have! "
The three little ones looked at each other in blank dismay, they always thought that the school rule prohibiting the use of crucible shabu-shabu was a product of many years ago.
After all, no one would have dared to do such a thing while Professor Snape was a potions professor.
It seems that Professor Holmes is more powerful than they imagined, and he dared to fight against Snape during school.
Mainly, the way Professor Holmes changed the subject was too lame.
It was hard for them not to suspect that the unlucky kid was him.
What's more, Harry was sure that he had read correctly just now, Professor Holmes had two wands on him.
He looked at the crumbled wand on the table, then at Douglas.
Ron suppressed the tears in his eyes, pretending to be indifferent:
"Professor, it's all right, it's not your fault.
