After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.
Chapter 29 Harry's Birthday 3
Lucius, who was whispering intimately to Narcissa, cast a faint glance. "What else have you done these past few years besides transforming into a dog to entertain children?"
"Isn't this my greatest role? The children are so happy to play with me." Sirius puffed out his chest proudly. He had a clear understanding of his own position. He felt that he had done a great job and gave the children a happy childhood.
Is he really the heir carefully cultivated by the Black family? This question once again appeared in Lucius's mind. Lucius shook his head to get rid of the unnecessary thoughts. "Malfoy can be said to be the richest Muggle in the wizarding world."
"I know, didn't your family do that before?" Sirius was a little puzzled, who doesn't know that?
"I mean the entire wizarding world. Dear Sirius, I'm assuming you understand what I'm saying." Lucius tried his best to suppress his unkind eye roll. "England, France, Germany, America, the entire European continent, understand? That's how much Malfoy earns every day," Lucius gestured.
Sirius was shocked. This time, he understood and saw clearly. "Then why do Harry and the others make their own money?" This was the first time he found his brother-in-law so pleasing to the eye. Of course, these were walking Galleons! Even if he didn't work, he wouldn't be able to spend all that money in several lifetimes, right?
"This is our own request," Draco finally managed to give Sirius a proper look. He explained slowly, "We're trying to develop our own self-care skills. Hogwarts is a boarding school, and we're going to buy everything ourselves in Diagon Alley when term starts. The money we earn will go towards our daily expenses while we're at school."
Draco looked at the remaining carrots in the bowl, thought for a while, and then put them into Harry's bowl without anyone noticing. Harry also tacitly turned sideways to block the sight of others and quickly finished eating the carrots.
"So, do you have enough? Do you need some support from your uncle?" Sirius hadn't noticed their little movements. At this moment, he was inexplicably worried. Children can't be raised in poverty. Thinking of the two little boys begging him for pocket money, Sirius' smile gradually spread. Shouldn't he be thankful for his good face?
Narcissa looked at Sirius strangely, the expression of a fool written all over her face. "Sirius, stop your stupid imagination. If they really need money, do you think Xiaolong and the others wouldn't tell us? Besides, Sev will be watching them." What's your business? Narcissa's eyes were clear.
Woo woo woo, Sirius bent forward in frustration, even Cissy was not happy with me, woo woo woo.
----------------------------------------
It was finally time for Harry's favorite moment, opening presents. Perhaps because he was going to Hogwarts this year, Draco had invited some of his closest noble friends to his birthday party.
After all, the fact that a Malfoy raised a savior would always attract the pointing and criticizing of some self-righteous fools, and the malicious slander of some Death Eaters who had managed to escape trial by chance. Of course, the nobles all knew how to protect themselves, so they were all waiting and watching.
When they discovered from their observations over the past few years that the Malfoy family was determined to raise this child seriously, they couldn't help but think more.
You have to know that the Malfoy family used to be a wealthy family, and Malfoy was always smart enough not to take sides. When the Death Eaters were at their most rampant, they did not let the false victory get them to do irrational things, which allowed them to escape the trial of the Ministry of Magic.
Now they were clearly on Dumbledore's side. Yes, in their view, Dumbledore was the savior. Some rational nobles began to ponder the meaning of this. What news had they received?
Malfoy must have been certain of victory to make such a decision. The nobles all had their own sources of information, and they all knew that the man was not dead.
The nobles were shocked when they saw that Malfoy had cooperated with Weasley, who had always been at odds with him, and that in just three months the Weasley family had become a new elite in the business world.
One by one, they brought their children to Draco's birthday party to try to get close to the Malfoy family, hoping that they would get a share of the profits.
As the banquet drew to a close, Lucius casually rolled up his sleeves, revealing his smooth arms. As the protagonist, Malfoy undoubtedly attracted all attention. Some of the nobles who had once surrendered to Voldemort subconsciously covered their arms with their hands as they scrutinized him, their eyes growing brighter. Others, however, were filled with surprise, questioning, and even anger.
All of this was seen by the Malfoys, and in order to protect Harry's safety, Lucius and Narcissa did not let him attend the party. They wrote down those who came to spy on Harry's whereabouts openly or secretly, those with malicious intent, and finally those loyal remnants of Voldemort.
Finally, on Harry's birthday, he invited those nobles who were relatively friendly to him. It would be a good idea to fulfill some of their small wishes, such as removing a certain mark?
Harry looked at the gifts from some nobles. Those with bad intentions had already been cleared away by Doris. He opened them curiously. Inside were some jewel brooches, antiques and the like. Harry looked at them for a while but lost interest. He asked Doris to register them and put them in the warehouse. After all, he had to return the gifts later.
Next, it’s time to look at the gifts from friends and family.
The first things Harry opened were the Weasleys' gifts: Mr. Arthur's custom-made Muggle gadgets, Molly's handmade Liam doll, a fuzzy, lifelike one, Bill's French red wine (the letter said it was very low in alcohol, like grape juice?), Charlie's top-quality dragonhide gloves, Percy's school supplies, the twins' gift packs for skipping classes, Ron's handwritten guide to wizard chess—it seemed he hadn't given up on teaching Harry yet, and Ginny's Honeydukes candy box. Harry carefully put it away; these were all thoughtful gifts from the Weasleys.
He opened Sirius's and found the latest Nimbus 2000 inside. Yes, it was the one Draco hadn't given him! Harry rarely smiled broadly at Sirius.
Uncle Lucius presented Harry with a card. Harry looked at him puzzled, and Lucius said casually, "It's not much, just 10 million pounds. Next time you sneak into Muggleland, you won't have to drool over the street food."
Harry and Draco couldn't help but blush. They had sneaked out once, but they had no money with them. They were so hungry that their mouths were watering at the roadside snack stalls. Later they came back on Liam's back. When they got home, no one was home yet. They thought they had kept it a secret well.
Lucius is really generous. Sirius couldn't help but click his tongue and said, "I lost."
The book Narcissa gave Harry was a hand-drawn one. When he opened it, he saw portraits of Lily on every page, as well as some small cartoons. They depicted his mother when she was pregnant with him, and when she was holding him and imagining the future. All of these scenes were drawn by Lily and Narcissa after discussing them night after night.
Harry's eyes were red. Narcissa rubbed his head, still looking at him with gentle eyes. Everything was said without words.
Harry put the album away carefully and opened Snape's gift. Inside were photos of him from childhood to adulthood. He flipped through the photos and even found photos of when he was just born. He looked at himself in the album and smiled happier and happier, and he also smiled happier and happier.
He knew that Sif was telling him that he was born in love and would grow up in love. This was his awkward godfather, with his implicit care and love.
He finally opened Draco's gift box. Inside was a bottle of unknown potion. Lucius, Narcissa, and Snape had some guesses, but Sirius was completely confused.
"This is a gene repair potion," Draco said with a smile, "This way Harry will be like me." Harry knew what Draco meant. It was Draco's birthday last month and he awakened the light element.
Harry was envious. He also wanted to awaken so that he could protect Draco, and he didn't want to be too far away from Draco.
But Aunt Cissy said that this potion only had an adult version, and they didn't know if it would affect his body. Although Harry was disappointed, he knew that he had to be cautious with everything he put into his mouth, so he prepared to take it after he became an adult, just hoping not to be too far away from Draco.
I didn't expect that the gift Draco prepared for him today was this. I can't hold back my tears.
"Happy birthday, Harry." How could I not see that? I know you best.
"Thank you, Draco." It's great to meet you.
