Chapter 171 Christmas Presents and the Argument over Hagrid's Hut
Two flowers bloom, each with its own beauty. Let’s get back to Yang Tian.
No matter how chaotic the outside world was, the Forley Manor still maintained a festive atmosphere. The plan had already been made. After the battle on Christmas Eve, Yang Tian returned to Forley Manor and concentrated on enjoying his Christmas vacation. Sophia and her husband brought Little Cook and the house elf Dicka to the manor to celebrate Christmas together, which was naturally very lively.
The most important thing about Christmas is naturally opening presents under the Christmas tree. Imagining that this is his first Christmas after entering Hogwarts, Yang Tian's heart is full of expectations. What surprises will his good friends give him?
"Wow, what a genius, he actually made Hannah's protective bracelet?" Yang Tian said to himself in surprise after opening the first package.
"Wow, is this a mutant devil vine?" Yang Tian picked up a transparent glass bottle from another package and observed it in amazement: "It seems to have a certain resistance to light! Although it is not obvious, this research direction is indeed good. Is this Neville's research direction?"
"Humph, the Patil sisters only gave me one Christmas gift. I'll see how I'll mock them when I get back." Having said that, the smile on Yang Tian's face betrayed his good mood: "It's actually a soul notebook. Can this method of mind calibration really temper the soul? The progress of the experiment of these two sisters is surprisingly fast."
......
Next, as the gift packages were unpacked one by one, Yang Tian's smile became brighter and brighter: Daphne and Pansy's bloodline research notes; Hermione's rune research notes; Zhang Qiu's flying spell research notes; Penelope's human body transformation exploration notes...
How could this be a Christmas gift? This was clearly a premeditated show of achievement, okay? But Yang Tian was genuinely happy, because at that moment, he understood what his friends were thinking! They didn't want to be a burden, and didn't want to be left behind! They wanted to keep him company, and they hoped to help him!
Yang Tian, with a surge of emotion, casually opened a large package, but in the next moment, his hand trembled with shock, and he threw a transparent glass bottle directly out. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and figured out the reason in an instant, and cast a floating spell before the bottle fell to the ground, thus avoiding a tragedy.
It's not that Yang Tian is timid, it's that he really didn't expect someone to give him a curled-winged demon as a Christmas gift? Well, how could he not guess who such a talented person is? Hagrid! When Yang Tian thought of this big guy, his heart warmed up again. He could almost imagine Hagrid's inexplicable surprise when he saw the Christmas gift he gave him. Of course, he also looked forward to the surprised expressions of his friends when they saw his gift.
He had sent the gifts to his friends yesterday, along with an email about his schedule, to Meng Meng Jiao. A piece of meteorite for Hannah, a magical plant seed from China for Neville, a heart-lock defense magic weapon for the Patil sisters, a hairpin for Hermione to enhance her memory, and a protective robe for Penelope... Each one was carefully prepared by him.
Of course, he also prepared Christmas gifts for the Weasley brothers, senior sisters Elena, Angelina, many Ravenclaw classmates, and professors. I believe everyone will be surprised.
After opening all the gifts, Yang Tian walked out of the room and took little Cook and Dicka to play together. It was a rare leisure time.
Of course, Yang Tian would not really be a hands-off boss. Meng Mengjiao became the busiest person during the holiday. One report letter after another allowed Yang Tian to know the direction of the situation clearly...
On the other hand, in the Hogwarts Gamekeeper's Cottage, Hagrid hummed a little tune happily, and his big hands stroked the little leopard with sharp horns in front of him from time to time. From the moment he opened the Christmas gift sent by Yang Tian, other gifts were no longer important.
Look at this little fellow in front of you. He is not big, and seems to be not much bigger than a cat. He is obviously born not long ago, and he still walks with a limp, and even falls to the ground if he is not careful. His naive appearance in the infancy stage almost melts Hagrid's heart.
The little leopard suddenly cried out, as if conveying important information. But seeing the big guy's ignorance, the little guy got angry and started biting without knowing the severity of the situation.
"┗|`O′|┛ Aa ...
Hagrid searched around in a hurry: "Oh, it turns out that the little guy is hungry. Don't worry... don't worry, let me see what you can eat now." The big man flipped through the manual carefully: "It's best to drink leopard milk and animal meat now? Wow, can we eat meat now? Great, I'll prepare it right away." After saying that, he turned and left...
Hagrid was worthy of being a gamekeeper. After a while, the standard unicorn baby meal in the maintenance manual was ready. Looking at the little unicorn wolfing down the food, Hagrid felt an infinite sense of satisfaction.
Just when the big and the small were enjoying the food and the big and the small, there was a knock on the door of the cabin: "Hagrid, are you there? Ron and I are here to visit you!"
Hearing Harry's voice, Hagrid was delighted again and hurried forward to open the door.
"Merry Christmas, Hagrid!" Harry and Ron shouted in unison.
"Merry Christmas, Harry. And Ron." Hagrid smiled shyly and responded, "Come inside and sit down. It's still quite cold now."
After Harry and Ron were seated, Hagrid began to entertain them warmly: "Come, try the new rock cakes. I promise they will be more authentic than last time."
The two little guys looked at each other, and they could clearly see the lingering fear in each other's eyes. They could never forget the painful experience of almost having their teeth knocked out when they first visited Hagrid's hut.
However, they had already thought of a way to deal with it. After taking the rock cake, the two of them just pretended to take a bite, and then they couldn't wait to pull Hagrid to chat about campus fun, news in the wizarding world, the current situation... The three of them were talking and laughing very happily.
But at this moment, Ron, who was looking around, suddenly opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise: "Wow, what is this?
Harry was also attracted by Ron's words and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see the well-fed little leopard strolling towards him.
"This creature is called a unicorn, a magical animal from China." Hagrid proudly introduced: "This is Yang Tian's Christmas gift to me."
"Is it Yang Tian from Ravenclaw?" When Ron mentioned this person, his vigilance immediately reached the maximum, and he started talking nonsense: "Then you better be careful, the things he sends may be terrifying..."
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Hagrid's slightly angry words: "It's not nice for you to say that, Ron. I know Yang Tian. I have fought side by side with him and those damn black-robed wizards. He is someone you can trust with your back."
"That only shows that you lack the most basic understanding of him. Harry and I both believe that this man has serious problems and is a dangerous person. My father has made a similar assessment and he wants us to stay away from this man." Ron said seriously.
"Oh? Do you think so, Harry?" Hagrid was a little angry at this time, but he still restrained himself and asked: "Then can you tell me what serious problems he has? How much do you know about him?"
Harry's eyes were slightly evasive, and he stammered: "That should be it? After all, even Ron's father..."
"Harry, I don't know where Arthur Weasley's dislike for Yang Tian comes from. I just want to ask, what did he do wrong? Can you tell me?"
Harry was speechless when he heard that, but Ron was still holding on. He said mysteriously, "Don't be fooled by his superficiality. He went out for a night out a week after school started. I don't know what bad intentions he has. Also, aren't you surprised? Why are all the students in the school fine, but only he is in danger? There must be a huge conspiracy..."
Looking at Hagrid's eyes as if he was an idiot, Ron couldn't say any more.
Hagrid no longer had any interest in talking to Ron. He just said to Harry earnestly, "Harry, I hope you won't always use "I heard, I thought" when judging whether a person is good or bad... Only when you actually come into contact with that person, you are qualified to judge a person, right? Talking bad about people behind their backs is really not a good habit."
At this point, the lively atmosphere in Hagrid's hut was completely gone. It seemed that they really didn't agree with each other, so Harry and Ron sat in the hut for a while and then left in a hurry...
