Chapter 124 Dinner at Hogwarts

Fleur and Gabrielle followed Rove to the Hufflepuff table, and the group of Beauxbatons students also followed excitedly.

Durmstrang is sitting at the Slytherin table, but no one really cares about them now, even the famous star Krum in the team.

Most of the boys turned their attention to the Hufflepuff table and looked at Fleur sitting next to Rove.

"That girl is so beautiful! I feel like she can rival Shirley Swinton of Ravenclaw!"

Ron's eyes were staring straight at Fleur, his mouth was slightly open, and he said in a hoarse voice:

"Harry, why don't we in Gryffindor House have such beautiful witches?"

This wave of AoE undoubtedly annoyed the girls of Gryffindor House. They glared at Ron who looked like a pig brother with great anger.

Having been beaten by Shirley for a long time, they have developed a strong ability to resist beatings, and now there is a stunning-looking Beauxbatons female student. They are actually okay and can completely accept this kind of thing.

But accepting it doesn't mean they are willing to be told in person or pointed at condescendingly.

Parvati Patil looked at him sarcastically and said, "Ron, you have freckles on your face, but you have the nerve to talk about us?"

"That's right." Angelina said angrily: "It's really rude to comment and compare other people's appearance at will!"

Even Ginny didn't stand by her brother. She said harshly:

"Ron, you have to learn how to respect others. I won't say that you are ugly or not as good-looking as Rove...although this is a fact."

"..."

Ron was besieged by a group of girls. He looked at Harry for help, but Harry didn't want to lose his spousal rights at Hogwarts for the next four years.

So, he pretended not to hear and chatted with George and Fred about the Triwizard Tournament.

When Ron saw Seamus looking at him, he thought he was going to help him fight with other scholars, and he was touched for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Simo smiled triumphantly at him and said:

"Ron, let me just say she is a top beauty, right? I won, and I am willing to admit defeat. You owe me a galleung!"

"..."

In addition to discussing the astonishing beauty of the silver-haired sisters, their relationship with Luo Fu has also become the focus of heated discussion.

At the Ravenclaw table, many people focused their attention on Shirley.

Apart from comparing their looks to see who is better, I just wanted to find out about this matter.

After all, Shirley and Rolf are almost inseparable and have an extremely close relationship. She must know why.

Lisa Dupin asked curiously: "Shirley, Rove and that girl look very familiar. Have they known each other before?"

The girl with the ponytail nodded and explained: "Rolf and Fleur met on the Mayflower last year, and they have been communicating frequently this year."

"Furong...what a weird name!" Lisa said, "but she is so pretty."

Shirley turned her head and looked at Furong, nodded lightly, and said with an indifferent smile: "It's very beautiful."

This is the truth.

This is not an unintentional boast.

But that's all.

At this time, the professors entered the auditorium, with Professor Dumbledore, Professor Karkaroff and Madame Maxime at the front, followed by the four deans.

When Beauxbatons students saw Madam Maxime appearing, they all stood up immediately, including Fleur.

She looked solemn and solemn, looking more like she was attending someone's mourning meeting.

Beauxbatons' strange behavior made many Hogwarts students couldn't help laughing.

Gabrielle leaned into Rolf's ear and explained:

"This is Beauxbatons' custom. Students can only sit down after the principal sits down to show respect for them...Don't you have one at Hogwarts?"

"No, we firmly believe that respect is in the heart and not just a formality." Luo Fu smiled and said, "But our school also has strange rituals."

"What ceremony?" Gabrielle asked with curiosity on her face.

"When school starts, the principal will ask everyone to sing the school song according to their favorite melody."

Gabrielle wowed and praised, "I love this ceremony!"

The little girl counted her fingers again and counted how many songs she knew and wanted to sing them to Luo Fu. He smiled and touched her head.

After the professors all sat down, everyone found that there were actually four empty seats in the faculty seats.

Except for Mad-Eye Moody and Hagrid, no one could think of anyone else who wasn't here.

As Dumbledore stood up, the auditorium gradually became quiet, and his rich voice echoed through every corner of the room.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, ghosts, and - especially - distinguished guests!"

Dumbledore looked at the foreign students with a smile, "It is with great joy that I welcome you to Hogwarts. I hope and believe that you will have a comfortable and happy life here."

"The Triwizard Tournament will officially begin at the end of the banquet." Dumbledore said, "Let us now share delicious food and wine to symbolize the everlasting friendship!"

After the principal finished speaking, the plates on the dining table were instantly filled with sumptuous dishes:

Roasted venison with leeks, peppered wild boar, roast goose, grilled chicken and pigeon skewers, large lamb chops braised in almond milk with raisins and onions, crab and shark soup, foie gras soaked in red wine...

There are also many French, German, Nordic and other foreign cuisines, as well as dark cuisine:

Classic British dishes are a must when looking up at the stars; garlic chili, spicy stir-fried leech, salt-baked four-legged snake, cockroach in alcohol pot... are also on display.

It can only be said that the house elves seem to have tried their best to take care of both British wizards and foreign wizards, as well as curious hunters with tricky tastes.

On each table were pots of mulled wine and chilled autumn ale, which were passed around the table.

Gabrielle picked up a piece of roasted and crispy pork, dipped it in plum sauce, brought it to her mouth, and ate it happily.

Furong took a spoon, filled a bowl of soup, took a sip, and commented:

“This French fish soup tastes very authentic, no worse than what I had in Paris.”

Fleur was about to serve a bowl for Rolf and Gabrielle, but the group of Hufflepuff students were already rushing to serve themselves a bowl.

So, a French fish soup was gone.

Fleur's face was full of astonishment.

"It's okay, you can have unlimited refills." Luofu blinked, picked up the spoon, knocked on the basin, and said, "Please have another one."

Soon, the basin was full of French fish soup again.

The house elves also played enthusiastically and gracefully, but the sounds of harps, violins and trumpets were quickly drowned out by the laughter and cheers.

At this moment, at the end of the hall, the door suddenly opened, a gust of cold wind blew in, and the torch suddenly lit up.

Filch walked in with two new guests.
