Chapter 419 Questionable Christmas Gift

On Christmas Day, the sky did not clear up, it had snowed all night, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow.

The room was very dark, and the heavy curtains blocked the cold air seeping in from the cracks in the windows, and also blocked the light from outside. In front of the desk were the books he had stayed up to read last night, and Albert was still sleeping.

Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps outside the corridor. Nia, who was wearing pajamas, came to Albert early in the morning to accuse her because she did not receive a Christmas gift from Albert this year. This made Nia very upset.

I'm not happy, I've been grimacing since I woke up in the morning.

The fat cat named Tom got in as soon as the door was opened. He seemed to feel something and looked up at the birdcage hanging by the window.

In the birdcage, Sheila shook her head and stared at the uninvited fat cat. It raised its paw, smashed the bird and pecked it, staring at Tom with malice in its eyes.

"Come on Tom!"

Nia raised her hand and pointed to Albert's bed, as if she were closing the door and letting Tom go.

The fat cat accelerated his charge and rushed towards Albert on the bed. I don't know if it was because he was too fat or for other reasons, but he failed to jump up and almost hit the edge of the bed.

Sheila, who witnessed this scene with her own eyes, made a cooing sound, as if she was laughing at Tom.

"Stupid Tom!"

Nia bent down, picked up Tom, and placed him next to Albert's bed. Tom began to rub Albert's face with his tail, and soon woke up the man on the bed.

"Stop it Tom." Albert said sleepily. When he opened his eyes, he saw Nia with her hands on her waist and looking down at him with a straight face.

"Christmas gift?"

"I thought you had forgotten!" the girl couldn't help complaining.

"How could I forget? Put on your clothes first. It won't be good if you catch a cold!"

Albert casually took a coat from the hanger, put it on Nia's body, and raised his head to ruffle her hair. Under Nia's dissatisfied eyes, he opened a box, took out a wool scarf and handed it to her.

To Nia.

"How many scarves did you buy?" Nia found that the style of scarves was pretty good, but there were several scarves in the box, which made him a little dissatisfied.

"Bought them for the whole family." Albert said with a smile: "Grandpa Luke and Grandma Shana asked Sheila to send them yesterday."

"oh!"

Although it was a bit different from what was expected, the girl felt much better after receiving the Christmas gift.

"Don't fight, or I'll deduct your snacks."

Albert turned and said to the two pets on the table who were about to start.

As soon as Tom heard that he was going to take away the snacks, he jumped down from the table and started rubbing Albert's feet, asking for snacks. Sheila looked at the fat cat with disdain and made a cooing sound again.

"Okay, I'll give it to you later."

Albert bent down and picked up Tom, looked at Nia with a smile and said: "Have you prepared my Christmas gift?"

"Of course." The girl puffed up her chest proudly, "I'll give it to you later."

"Go back and put on your clothes. It won't be good if you catch a cold." Albert reached out to rub Nia's hair again, but she successfully avoided it.

"You hate it, don't mess up my hair."

Nia disappeared in a flash.

When Albert got dressed and went downstairs, he found that there was a mountain of gifts piled next to the Christmas tree, which made him stunned.

"Son, I just realized that you are so popular in school." Herb smiled and put on the scarf that Albert just gave him. "When I woke up this morning, I found a bunch of Christmas gifts sent to you.

.”

"Um."

Albert responded casually, and he found the gift given to him by Daisy and Herb from the pile of packages, which was a beautiful brown woolen coat and brown woolen socks.

He took off his coat and put it on himself.

"Looks pretty good."

Daisy said with satisfaction.

"It doesn't matter who picked the gift." Herb said proudly.

"You picked wool socks." Daisy reminded.

"You are my wife."

Herb was not embarrassed. He kissed Daisy on the cheek, tied a scarf on her with a smile and said, "The scarf Albert picked is good. I bet he bought the same style for our whole family."

Albert ignored the couple who showed affection early in the morning and concentrated on opening his own Christmas gifts.

Grandpa Luke and Grandma Shana gave him a copy of the latest edition of "Economics" and the best-selling novel "Weird Vernod".

Isobel gave me a pair of woolen gloves.

Well, that was a gift they bought in Hogsmeade before the Christmas vacation. Both parties gave each other wool gloves of the same style.

Hermione gave Albert a box of sugar-free chocolates and a greeting card to thank Albert for his help.

Of course Albert knew what Hermione meant by help.

The Weasley twins gave Albert a book called "Twelve Tips for Bewitching Witches", which was undoubtedly used to pick up girls. It is hard to say whether it is useful or not, after all, the two of them have not found a girlfriend yet.

.

Lee Jordan's gift was always the same cocoa beans, and I don't know how long a large box would last him.

Truman also sent a book.

In addition, he also received a bunch of greeting cards.

The remaining books and notes were gifts from old friends with whom he basically kept in touch. Albert was surprised to find that he also received a gift from Nico Flamel, which was a two-way mirror.

"Why does everyone like to give you books?"

Nia looked at the pile of books and notes, opened her mouth in surprise, and finally couldn't help but ask.

There is no way, the books in the opened package can already pile up into a small mountain.

Nia's eyes were very sharp, and she immediately noticed "Twelve Tips to Conquer Witches", and her face suddenly became unhappy.

"Where is my gift?" Albert asked.

"Give!"

Nia saw the new gloves on Albert's hand and handed the gift over to her a little unhappily. It was also a pair of gloves. Well, it was the same style as the pair on Nia's hand. The color was a brighter light brown.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I like it very much!" Albert took off his gloves and put them on again.

Seeing this scene, Nia smiled with satisfaction. When she was thinking about how to destroy the book "Twelve Tips to Win Witches", she found that Herb was already reading the book.

"is that useful?"

Daisy put the fried steak on the table, looked at Herb and asked.

"It's indeed interesting." Herb said with a smile, "However, I doubt our son will need this thing."

"Have you found a girlfriend?" Daisy asked bluntly. She thought Albert would find a witch girlfriend.

When Nia heard this, she pursed her lips and stared directly at Albert, waiting for his answer.

"I'm going to look for you again in two years," Albert said without hesitation.

"If you see something you like, buy it quickly and don't let others beat you to it." Herb smiled and said, "If you don't have the money, I'll give you an advance. This book is also good. Read it when you have time. I miss you."

You should probably find one over there. There are only a few wizards over there, so there are definitely not many to choose from. Remember to strike first if you like him. After all, you are so good, you will definitely be able to hook up with him easily."

Albert was speechless. He didn't expect Herb and Daisy to have such an attitude. He had indeed hooked up with one.

Of course, he was not prepared to tell his family about this. If he admitted that he had a girlfriend, his family would probably explode on the spot, and Herb and Daisy would definitely ask him for photos or ask him to invite each other to their home.

"Albert is so good, you don't need to worry about this kind of problem at all. Even if you can't find the right one, it's good to choose one from us." Nia said angrily, "Also, this

It's best not to look at such messy things, as they will teach people bad things."

Nia directly confiscated "Twelve Tips to Conquer Witches".

Herb didn't care too much. He was very confident in his son. If he really wanted to find a girlfriend, it would definitely not be difficult. After all, he was so good and there were a lot of people chasing him.

"I'm going to buy you a bookshelf in two days. Judging from your attitude, I guess the bookshelf in your room won't be enough before you graduate from school." He said, looking at the books piled on the coffee table.

"Well, I really need to buy another one."

Albert sorted out the books and was immediately speechless. Although he said that he really liked reading, he felt quite helpless when he received a bunch of books.

He didn't want to be like Dumbledore in the future: "People insist on sending me books."

After opening a bunch of gifts in succession, Albert's hands suddenly stopped because he discovered that the sender of this package was actually Snape?

Snape actually gave himself a Christmas gift. Is this like candy falling from the sky?

There are many professors at Hogwarts who have a good relationship with Albert, and they will also give him Christmas gifts. For example, Professor McGonagall gave Albert a notebook about the transformation of the Animagus this year.

But Albert never received a gift from Snape.

"Do you want to open it?"

Albert hesitated for a while, but finally gave up. He felt that there was probably nothing good in this. After all, he had made Snape famous a few days ago, saying that the other party did not hold grudges, and Albert would not believe it even to death.

In addition, there was a package without a sender, which looked suspicious no matter how you looked at it. Albert finally gave up on opening the two packages and prepared to go back to school to find other people to share the items in the package.
