"No, nothing has happened yet." Lucius folded his hands into a pyramid shape, resting his chin lightly on them. He tilted his head and looked at the crowd. "Perhaps we have already changed a lot of things that should have happened." He looked at Arthur and snorted coldly, actually doubting his precious little dragon.

Arthur scratched his head awkwardly. He couldn't help but feel hopeful after hearing Lucius' words. He really didn't want the situation he described to happen. He loved his family and his two children dearly. Losing either of them would bring the family to a point of no return.

Lucius ignored him and first called a few children over to ask for their opinions. Because the adults all had their own things to do, he was really worried about Xiaolong. He always felt that Xiaolong was getting information about the future more and more frequently.

Just when he was in distress, he saw Harry and the others and had an idea. So, with the tacit consent of the people present, Lucius solemnly entrusted these children with the task. He had already learned how to deal with children properly, thanks to Muggle parenting books.

He tricked the children into agreeing to help the adults pass on the message, and when he found someone who could hear what Draco said, he told the parents not to let those people disturb Draco.

The kids were in their prime, and since Draco was a really good friend, they knew Draco's secret, so they agreed without hesitation and promised not to tell anyone.

They didn't know it wasn't a matter of confidentiality. To be honest, they couldn't tell anyone who didn't know about it. They could only pass on the information in a veiled manner.

Lucius was very touched and praised several children highly, praising everyone except Harry so much that they were completely fascinated and full of confidence. As for Harry, to be honest, he was immune to being praised all the time.

It's not that children can't handle admiration, but who can resist a shimmering beauty looking at you in awe, as if you were a hero? Merlin, they couldn't.

Under the strange gazes of several adults, Lucius took out several sets of customized Flame Pillar cloaks that had not yet been released, or were not planned to be released. The cost of each one was 3000 gold galleons, but for Malfoy, money was not a problem at all.

This cloak can be made larger or smaller, keeping warm in winter and cool in summer. It is made of the softest belly fur of the precious Umbria Snow Dragon, and its defensive power is also excellent. Only a dozen snow dragons as big as half of Hogwarts can be made. He also ingeniously set the flame pattern on the bottom to change according to the owner's wishes.

Looking at the children's shining, eager eyes, Lucius gave these to the children as rewards, completely ignoring Arthur and his wife who were hesitant to speak.

The children forgot their worries and lost themselves in the gorgeous cloak. As for the life-threatening situation, not to mention the 12-year wait, they still had adults around. They patted their chests, promising to complete the mission, and happily let Narcissa coax them out to play. They heard there was a beef hot pot bento for lunch!

Then there were the issues surrounding Lucius and the others. Arthur and Molly had heard a lot of unbelievable news, and Scabbers was a real shocker. Dumbledore hadn't said what Scabbers was supposed to do, and they hadn't even seen him do anything; Scabbers had just followed Dumbledore's lead.

----------------------------

When Ron, Harry and the twins went to find Draco and the others, they were really envious. Harry took out the other two items he had asked Lucius for before leaving and handed them to Percy and Ginny.

He dressed Draco himself, looked him up and down, and nodded in satisfaction. Draco had long been accustomed to it. Ever since Harry had spoken his mind, he had become even more attached to him. But there was nothing he could do. He was the older brother after all, and a brother should take care of his younger brother. How could he refuse his younger brother's kindness? Draco, who had always been taken care of, thought to himself with a sense of righteousness.

"This shouldn't be cheap." Percy is more mature, and he will be going to Hogwarts next year. In order to be better than his peers and become a support for his family sooner, he has learned a lot of knowledge in advance.

He asked Draco a little hesitantly. Ginny was originally very happy to try it on, but Percy's words made her hesitate. Although she liked this beautiful dress very much, she also knew the situation at home.

"Wow, look at our mature Mr. Percy Weasley,"

"You're saying something to ruin the atmosphere again."

"This is a gift from Mr. Malfoy."

"Don't you want to..."

"Is it rude to return it?"

The twins joked with Percy in unison, which also effectively eased the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

Draco breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had been spoiled by his family to the point of being lawless, he also knew that it would be inappropriate to say that Malfoy didn't need this little money or anything else, because Percy was obviously the kind of person with a high self-esteem. He was worried that his words would cause misunderstanding.

Ron seemed to have grown up a bit, and he even changed the subject. "Should we go back to the living room to play? It's getting a bit hot, and Aunt Narcissa said there's a beef hot pot bento like Big Brother's for lunch." He swallowed. Okay, maybe he was just greedy.

No one objected, so the children moved to the living room to play, and the whole manor was filled with their laughter.

At noon, everyone enjoyed the long-awaited beef hot pot bento. Whether it was because there were so many children gathered together, or because of the influence of their idols, they all thought it was delicious and ate it with great satisfaction.

Molly would look at Ginny, urging her to eat all her vegetables, then remind Ron to observe table manners and not reach out to grab anything. She would always look at the twins lovingly, gently asking if they wanted this or that. As for Percy, he was very well behaved, leaving Molly no room for fuss, so she began to pay attention to Draco and Harry.

At least that's what Draco thought. She'd tell him Harry was too skinny and needed more meat, then wonder why Draco was so pale. She thought children needed more sun exposure for better bone development. But the Malfoys always had that complexion, so no amount of sun exposure would help.

Molly enthusiastically shared her recipes with Narcissa, which are not only delicious but also healthy, and are essential nutritional supplements for children's growth.

The more Narcissa listened, the more she benefited. Draco and Harry looked gloomy as they listened. They really didn't like carrots and celery! The Weasley children all looked at Draco and Harry with sympathy. They had been fed this way since they were young.

After dinner, the Weasleys prepared to go back home. The adults agreed to talk in detail next time, and the children reluctantly agreed to play together next time. Draco and Harry were envious when they learned that Ron and his friends could go to Diagon Alley at will without an adult.

Draco seemed to have thought of something, and pulled the twins aside, asking them if they were interested in magic tricks, and then said that Ron had told him. The twins pretended not to know and nodded in agreement.

Draco mysteriously pulled out a bag with a traceless extension charm. "There are 500 Galleons in it. They're my support for your research and development. If you plan to start production or open a store in the future, I want to be your exclusive investor."

Draco thought for a moment. "And Harry, he has a share in this, too. If the funds are insufficient, I can always invest in you!" Although Harry still had the Potter family's treasury, he couldn't just sit there and wait for his savings to run out. He decided to invest more money in Harry's projects so that he wouldn't be too poor to marry in the future.

Draco felt that he was such a qualified brother who had to worry about his younger brother at such a young age. He angrily praised himself.

Gemini smiled knowingly and saluted in a playful manner, saying that they would not let their financial sponsor down. They already knew that they would be successful in the future, but why should they wait until then?

They can definitely work hard on research and development, bringing more joy and fun to everyone in fourth or even third grade, right? Their current goal! Reading! Working hard on research and development!

After the Weasleys returned, Draco took a short walk with his parents, godfather, and Harry, sharing some interesting stories before preparing to take a nap with Harry. Narcissa and Lucius Snape discussed some of the next steps, made a series of plans, and then dispersed.

Snape went to the potions room to do his great and fascinating potion business, chat with Lily, discuss Harry's education, and ignore James Potter's 107 complaints.

Lucius and Narcissa spent a long time together in a sweet world of their own, loving each other very much. Liam looked at the couple who did not treat him as an outsider, rolled his eyes and prepared to go find his little master to sleep together, but on the way he was pitifully captured by a dark potion master to provide him with raw materials.

There was nothing he could do even though he was angry. He couldn't disobey the young master's order and attack the people in the manor. He could only fly over the Potions Master's head and mess up his hair to vent his anger.

So when Sirius excitedly came to Draco and Harry with his innocent body to cultivate his relationship, he was stopped at the gate of Malfoy Manor and couldn't even get in. When the owl couldn't fly in, he was completely dumbfounded.

"Ah? No, no one cares about me?"
