"There is another letter in the package." Ron took out an envelope from the package and handed it to him.
Harry took off the invisibility cloak, took the envelope and opened it. It read: Your father left this thing to me before he died, and it should be returned to you now. Use it well, and I sincerely wish you a Merry Christmas.
"What's wrong with you?" Looking at him in a daze, Ron pushed him.
"Nothing." Harry thought this was very strange. Who gave the invisibility cloak? If it really belonged to his father, why didn't his father use it to escape Voldemort's pursuit?
Before he could think about it, the door to the dormitory was slammed open, and Fred and George Weasley rushed in. Harry hurriedly hid the invisibility cloak, he didn't want others to know.
"Merry Christmas!"
"Have you received any gifts?"
"Look! Harry also got a Weasley sweater"
"There is still a big gift box that has not been opened yet."
As soon as the two people came in, they started talking nonsense. They were also wearing the "specialties" of the Weasley family.
George glanced at the signature on the gift box
"Harry, it's Ivy's Christmas gift. Open it and take a look."
Harry opened the gift box, and more than twenty beautifully packaged cakes were piled neatly together, with a voicemail letter on top. When he opened the letter, the letter flew into the air by itself, and Ivy's voice came out.
"Hi, Harry, Merry Christmas! This is a Christmas present. It's not just for you - Ron, Fred, George, Percy all share it. Try it, the mousse cake I made.
, I wish you all a happy holiday." The ups and downs of his voice were the same as Ivy's tone.
"Wow! Is it a cake? Let me try it." Ron knew that everything Ivy eats is good. He opened a box and found a rectangular cake inside.
“very beautiful”
This is a piece of chocolate cake, with clear layers of black and white chocolate alternating together. The surface is a solidified white chocolate crispy crust, and it is also dotted with some melon seeds. Ron grabbed it and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
"Uh-huh - I like it - I like it" was slurred in his mouth
Others also started to move, and the voices of admiration kept coming and going.
"What's all the yelling about here?"
Percy poked his head in through the crack in the door with a dissatisfied look on his face. He had just been opening Christmas gifts and had a sweater draped over his arm. Fred, with his sharp eyes, grabbed it.
"'p' means prefect. Put it on, Percy. We're all wearing it - Ron! Where's yours! Put it on quickly" Fred shouted to Ron
"I don't like dark purple, I remember telling her," Ron complained half-seriously. He put down the cake in his hand and put on a sweater.
"Okay~ We are all dressed now. Even Harry has one. Hurry up!" George urged Percy
"I - don't - want to - wear it!" Ignoring Percy's resistance, Gemini put the sweater on Percy without hesitation.
Fred also said, "You are not allowed to sit with the prefects today! Christmas is a time for family reunion."
"Okay! It's almost time. Let's go to the Christmas party!"
"Wait a minute, I just saw you eating cake."
"Oh, don't worry, Ivy gave a lot. Ron, take one away for Percy."
"No! There's not much left. I'm going to come back and eat again."
"You solitary bastard——"

Although there are not many people on Ivey's side, it is just as rich. First of all, there is a roasted turkey nearly 16 inches high, which is a must-have for the holidays. And this is not an ordinary roast chicken, this chicken has been marinated in various ways by Ivey
, and kept adding various seasonings while roasting. The roasting time was very short, and Ivey turned on the fierce fire and asked Irene to cast magic. The whole roasted chicken had crispy skin and juicy, absolutely delicious.
There are all kinds of ham, bacon, and pork chops around. There are all kinds of desserts on the dining cart next to the table. Ivy also baked some potato chips. Erin and the others, who are used to eating French fries, like this new food very much.
French. Finally, Ivey also made several plates of fried noodles.
In short, the Christmas dinner was very sumptuous. But when Ivy wanted them to drink some more wine, they were refused.

South East London
"What's the address number?" Erin drove slowly. This is a residential area with a lot of people.
There are many people who skateboard, skate, and ride bicycles.
"Siman Community No. 67" Ivey reminded her
This is already the second day of Christmas. Hogwarts will start school the day after tomorrow, and tomorrow Ivy and the others will take the train back to school.
Just yesterday, Hermione wrote, staying one night at Ivy's house today, and going to school together tomorrow.
"It's only the 39th, we still have to walk a little further."
Siman Community is a high-end single-family community. It has complete facilities, including various large supermarkets and shopping malls.
The car slowly drove deeper and finally stopped at the entrance of Villa No. 67.
"Hermione——!" Ivy opened the door and got out of the car, clasped his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly. Betty, who had just gotten off the car, quickly covered her ears.
"Bang!" The window on the right side of the third floor of the villa was suddenly pushed open. Hermione stuck out her little head and waved excitedly to the two of them. Then she disappeared in front of the window and went downstairs with the sound of "kick, kick, kick".
, the door of the villa was knocked open directly, and Hermione ran towards them.
"Slow down~" Ivey was a little helpless at her fiery personality.
"You're here!" Hermione rushed directly into Betty's arms, and the two hugged each other.
"Have you packed it up?"
“I packed it up when I received the reply last night.”
"Mr. Granger and the others—"
"They went to work and spent two days at home on Christmas."
"Miss Granger, let's help you get your luggage." Erin got out of the car.
Hermione looked at Ivy
"This is my mother, Erin" Ivy introduced her
"Excuse me for coming, Mrs. Eileen." Hermione bowed and thanked her. Then she led everyone into the room, invited everyone to sit down, and poured everyone a cup of coffee.
"Stop working, Hermione. Let's leave early, we still have to make lunch."
"Okay, I have my luggage in there, it's a bit too much!" Hermione was a little embarrassed, so she ran to the study and pushed out a large trolley.
"So much stuff! Hermione, what did you bring?"
"Well, most of them are books." Hermione scratched her head.
"It's okay. Except for the owl, which needs to be held alone, everything else is easy to talk about." Erin took out the bag that Ivy used for vacation, "Just use this one."
Several people worked for a while and packed everything.
"Let's go"
————
Although I drove as fast as possible on the road, it was still almost twelve o'clock when I arrived home.
"It's too late to cook, let's go out to eat. Wait until the afternoon to buy food and have hot pot in the evening." Ivy suggested
"OK"
Several people helped Hermione put away her luggage quickly, drove to the city center, and found a French restaurant not far from Cambridge University. The French dishes here were very authentic, and the French restaurant's meticulous service and romantic atmosphere were amazing.
