Chapter 704 Dominated by summer homework

Anyway, the second half of summer life is starting to get on track.

As the Hogwarts curriculum reform plan is put on the agenda, the shadow of summer homework finally casts its shadow over the future of the wizarding world.

The silver-white feather-patterned package that arrives unexpectedly every morning has almost become every student's most feared thing.

You know, even the powerful underage Dark Lord and the supreme Goblin Queen of Gringotts can't escape the fate of Hogwarts students - horrifyingly detailed homework and course preview plans

.

Dear parents, whether you are a much-anticipated campus star or a mediocre ordinary student; whether you come from an ancient pure-blood wizarding family, a mixed-blood family or a Muggle family... adults who are well aware of the hardships and ups and downs of society are here to help.

This time, regarding the issue of children's education, everyone showed a similar attitude of approval and high enthusiasm.

It has even become a new trend among the Ministry of Magic to talk about comparing the "homeschooling" situations of their children.

For example, Arthur Weasley especially likes to show off his children from time to time. As one of the few families with children selected to "return to school" by Hogwarts, this undoubtedly gives Mr. Weasley a great influence.

Honor and pride.

Fortunately, the current curriculum in the wizarding world is generally relatively simple and basic.

For the vast majority of little wizards, they only need to devote two to three hours a day to complete the summer learning plan assigned by the school. In the magical world where extracurricular exercise books are scarce, it is difficult for parents to provide more

Lots of arrangements.

Therefore, after a few brief complaints, the little ones quickly discovered the benefits of this.

Compared to sitting at home with nothing to do before, and being called upon to help at any time, or scolded for not studying properly, the phrase "I have finished today's homework" has become the most reasonable reason for them to rest and play.

Unfortunately, the above situation only applies to those "top students"...

For most poor students, if they want to complete the standard daily summer homework, they usually need to spend one to two times the normal time to check textbooks or seek help from their parents - this is the scariest part.

.

Many students had been lazy in school and partial to subjects, which was fully exposed under the test of summer homework.

Of course, almost every little wizard at Hogwarts begins to miss their days at school and is eager for the last month of summer vacation to end quickly so that they can return to the relaxed and enjoyable Hogwarts Castle as soon as possible.

.

However, not all little wizards think the last month of summer is terrible.

At least in the eyes of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, the time spent in the old Black family mansion was obviously much more interesting than the time they spent in their respective homes.

…………

Life at 12 Grimmauld Place is very different from life at Privet Drive and Malfoy Manor.

The Dursleys like everything to be orderly, and Lucius Malfoy places great emphasis on the etiquette of the ancient pure-blood family, and these are precisely the things that Sirius Black is least likely to abide by and reproduce.

In fact, the most important rule for living in the old Black family house is to learn to adapt to circumstances.

Whether it is the Dursleys or the Malfoys, they are usually used to telling Harry what they "should not do", "what they should do", and "what is right". This is also what most adults are familiar with.

Children’s relationship patterns.

Sirius Black is just the opposite. He prefers to ask Harry and Draco for their opinions first, and then puts forward some suggestions for improvement based on his own experience and experience. In the eyes of Harry and Draco, Sirius is more like

A friend who is slightly older than them, rather than a godfather or uncle with absolute authority.

Of course, this is limited to time outside of study.

Before Harry and Draco completed the homework sent from Hogwarts, Sirius Black's severity almost reminded them of Professor McGonagall, even worse - Azkaban Ten

Years of imprisonment turned Sirius from the impatient big dog into a patient lone wolf, especially when he supervised his two children's homework.

This was also the reason that prompted Professor McGonagall to make an exception and allow Sirius to join Hogwarts as a teacher.

The superb transfiguration skills are only one aspect. As a student who was once the most troublesome problem, Sirius Black can greatly share the daily management pressure of the professors and Filch after becoming a faculty member.

However, regarding the matter of Sirius Black joining Hogwarts as a teacher, there are still some less critical and dissatisfied voices among the Hogwarts School Board and Hogwarts professors.

For example...

"Harry and his father are two completely different people, Black."

On the night that Sirius Black brought the two little guys to Grimmauld Place, Severus Snape, under the guidance of Dumbledore, stormed into Sirius's bedroom aggressively and carried out an attack.

warn.

"If you hope to find the shadow of James Potter in this child, then I advise you to give up as soon as possible. Harry will never become the arrogant and arrogant fool like his father - maybe Dumbledore

I think you have learned enough lessons and will not be as reckless as before, but I will still keep an eye on you..."

Sirius Black narrowed his eyes and restrained himself from reaching for his wand.

You can't take the initiative and control your emotions - he told himself secretly.

As a member of the Hogwarts faculty and the dean of Slytherin House, Severus Snape does not have the right to directly oppose Dumbledore's decision, but if Sirius Black behaves out of line, he can.

Raise doubts.

"Severus, I am Harry's godfather, you don't need to worry about these things."

Blake turned his head and glanced at his bedroom door to confirm that the two boys sleeping in the room at the other end of the corridor had not woken up because of their dispute or were eavesdropping on their conversation outside the door, and continued in a low voice.

.

"If you have any objections, you can come and ask Harry directly during the day and ask him whether he wants to follow you to the cold potions basement or stay here to spend the summer vacation with his godfather and classmates."

"This has nothing to do with you. I have other things to do during the day."

Faced with Sirius Black's rhetorical question, Snape's face froze and he waved his hands in embarrassment.

"Speaking of which... Regarding Mr. Malfoy, did you consult his father, Lucius Malfoy, for advice when you hid him in the old house of the Black family? I don't think you should condone underage wizards.

Running away from home is a good idea, especially when you still have the possibility of becoming a formal professor at Hogwarts. I think it is necessary to remind you."

"Draco Malfoy?"

Sirius Black raised his eyebrows, looked at Snape, and said sarcastically.

"After so many years, I didn't expect you to still be so nosy, Severus. What does the domestic affairs between me and my own nephew have to do with you? Could it be that the headmaster of Slytherin House is still so nosy?

Are you responsible for the students temporarily living in their parents' homes during the holidays? You have too much to worry about, right?"

"Lucius Malfoy is now a member of the Hogwarts School Board."

Snape narrowed his eyes and said calmly.

"Because of your behavior, Old Malfoy has officially filed a complaint with the school board and the Ministry of Magic. I hope Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic can deal with this practice of 'kidnapping' underage wizards - don't you think, as everything

Should you take the initiative to explain the source of the troubles and conflicts instead of hiding here?"

"Explanation? Why do you need an explanation?"

Sirius Black grinned and waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Severus, Draco Malfoy is more than just a father. I have written to his mother about him. At least judging from my dear cousin's reply, she chose to respect Draco's

idea."

"...Very good, it seems that you are indeed much smarter than before."

After Snape was silent for a moment, he hummed noncommittally.

After returning from Azkaban, Sirius Black was much more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

"Then, I hope you can shoulder the responsibilities of a mature wizard, Professor Black."

Snape took a deep breath, turned around, walked directly to the burning fireplace in the room, and left the Black family.

He originally thought that the other party was still hot-headed and acted rashly based on sudden ideas. Unexpectedly, he actually prepared countermeasures in advance and resolved all his difficulties in a tit-for-tat manner. This was indeed beyond Snape's expectation.

"Huh... nosy snotty guy..."

Seeing Severus Snape disappearing into the flames, Sirius Black cursed secretly and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Professor Dumbledore wrote a few words of warning, and helped him comfort Mrs. Malfoy in advance, and promptly filled in the areas that he had not thought carefully about, otherwise he might have been ridiculed and laughed at by this old enemy today.

Already.

only……

Sirius Black took out the letter from his arms and looked back and forth a few times in confusion.

"Why does Professor Dumbledore's handwriting look a little strange? There is always a slightly different aura in it than before - and this flawless way of dealing with it... well, it always feels weird.

"

The man rubbed his hair and sighed helplessly.

It seems that Professor Dumbledore is still a little concerned and worried about what happened back then.
