While the two were actively discussing the choice of college, a lady wearing a gorgeous dress walked over. This lady looked to be in her late twenties, with an elegant figure and extremely delicate appearance.
A violet dress outlines her graceful figure. Her lazy body twists and walks like a charming Siamese cat.
"Uncle Augustus, this must be Sister Diana's child. Looking into his eyes, it reminds me of Sister Diana."
The elegant lady spoke first, looking at Qin Weijie with tender eyes, her smile was like a warm spring breeze, but Qin Weijie felt that this smile was a bit fake.
"Yeah, except for the eyes, this child doesn't look like a little welfare at all." Old Fuli sighed helplessly, and then introduced to Qin Weijie: "This is one of your collateral aunts, Katie, Katie... Welfare."
Old Foley paused, as if realizing something, and said, "Oh no, I should change my name to Mrs. Kitty Selwyn now."
"She is my brother's daughter. She had a very good relationship with your mother when she was a child. She just married Harold Selwyn, the son of Mr. Clayton Selwyn just three months ago."
Lao Fuli turned to Qin Weijie and explained carefully.
It can be seen that compared to Hector Foley, Marquis Foley is obviously more concerned about and pays more attention to Aunt Katie. It seems that people are still close to each other.
Even though Hector Foley is the Minister of Magic, he is still looked down upon by a large family that values blood ties.
A Minister of Magic's term lasts only ten years, but a family's heritage can last for thousands of years.
"Uncle Augustus, what you said is too complicated. Vijay is still a child. You seem to have confused him." Aunt Katie said with a chuckle, and then her face looked a little sad: "Poor my Diana. Sister, you would die in a foreign land for such a scumbag."
Aunt Katie's words were harsh, and it was obvious that she had a bad opinion of Qin Weijie's father.
Listening to Aunt Katie mocking Qin Weijie's father, Marquis Welfare did not show any dissatisfaction. It was obvious that Old Welfare did not like Qin Weijie's father. As for Qin Weijie himself, he basically had no impression of that cheap dad, okay? Even now Qin Weijie He doesn't even know his father's name.
I chatted with Aunt Katie for a long time, mainly listening to Aunt Katie talk about her mother Diana.
It can be seen from Aunt Katie's story that she did have a deep relationship with her mother.
After listening to Aunt Katie's story, Qin Weijie learned that Aunt Katie's father and mother had been doing business in the United States and rarely returned to the UK. Aunt Katie spent most of her childhood at the old Marquis's house.
At that time, Qin Weijie's mother, Diana Foley, had always taken good care of Aunt Katie. It can be said that Aunt Katie grew up following Qin Weijie's mother. If such a relationship is not good, there will be trouble.
Listening to Aunt Katie's story, I didn't realize that a long time had passed.
As the host of the banquet, Lao Welfare obviously had other entertainment. Seeing Qin Weijie chatting animatedly with Aunt Katie, he said a few words to Qin Weijie and left temporarily.
After Lao Fuli left, Qin Weijie took the opportunity to ask Aunt Katie about his parents' love history.
"Aunt, what kind of person is my father?"
Hearing Qin Weijie's question, Katie's face changed obviously. Even with a good aristocratic upbringing, Aunt Katie couldn't help but have a look of anger on her face.
"He is a scumbag, a scumbag with no sense of responsibility, a hateful liar, and a dirty thief. It was he who killed your mother and my sister!"
Although Qin Weijie had no impression of his father, Qin Weijie, as a Chinese, was somewhat dissatisfied when someone insulted his father like this.
"Aunt, although I don't know why you hate my father so much, there is a saying in China that the dead are the most important. My father has been dead for nearly ten years. No matter what he did during his lifetime to disgust you, now He has passed away, and I hope you can respect him, after all, I am still his son."
Qin Weijie Xiaozhi reasoned with Aunt Katie with emotion and reason.
However, it turns out that you should never reason with a woman, because it is a woman’s prerogative to be unreasonable.
"Hmph! Even if he dies ten times, he cannot make up for his crime. Not only him, but also his family members! They are all white-eyed wolves, poisonous snakes who repay kindness with revenge!"
Aunt Katie was obviously extremely unhappy with her parents. After scolding her for a few times, Aunt Katie realized that she could no longer control her anger, so she hurriedly turned around and left the banquet hall.
Before leaving, he didn't even say hello to Qin Weijie.
Seeing Aunt Katie turn and leave, Qin Weijie couldn't help but secretly curse in his heart.
"Old Qin, what on earth have you done? To make my aunt so angry? You wouldn't... Well, no, no, no, my aunt must have been only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, so she shouldn't be..."
There was nothing new in the banquet after that, just eating, drinking, and getting to know some people with Old Welfare.
When the banquet was about to end, Qin Weijie felt that his brain capacity should have been exhausted today. Qin Weijie, the person introduced by Lao Welfare later, felt that he had not remembered any of them.
It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the evening that the banquet came to an end.
After accompanying Old Fuli to see off the last guest, Old Fuli looked at Qin Weijie: "You still live in the Welfare Manor in London. If you need anything, just tell Mrs. Carter. I will arrange for the housekeeper Tosta Wallen now. Sir, I will take you back."
"No way, it's so late, you're not going to let me stay?"
"I don't think it's necessary. Seeing you reminds me of your father..."
Under the arrangement of Mr. Tosta Valen, Qin Weijie was forcibly put on the carriage, which also stopped Qin Weijie from looking for the "Source of Magic" in Lao Welfare's study.
"Isn't this old man afraid of getting too close to me and getting caught up in bad luck and dying?"
Qin Weijie was thinking about it while sitting in the carriage. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea made sense.
"It seems that I can only ask Mrs. Carter to help me find the "Source of Magic"."
Qin Weijie had no intention of telling Lao Welfare directly about finding the copy of "The Source of Magic" by Duca Stephen.
Because in Qin Weijie's view, for a pampered aristocrat like Lao Fuli, most of the books in his study are for display and collection. If you ask him directly for books, he probably won't be able to find them for a while. They didn’t even know they had the book in their collection.
…
Time passes day by day, and it’s already summer in the blink of an eye. London is not very hot at the end of July. The temperate maritime climate has only one advantage. It is not too cold in winter and not too hot in summer. Unfortunately, the weather changes are extremely unstable. .
Today, the situation across Europe is still unclear, and Prime Minister Chamberlain still adheres to his appeasement policy.
Minister of Magic Hector Foley is still the same as before, and he still maintains the four principles of "I don't know, I didn't see it, don't ask me, and it's okay to ask" towards the Grindelwald camp that is growing day by day on the European continent. Nothing is done.
Qin Weijie has been quite free these past few months. Apart from the occasional visits by Lao Welfare, some so-called cousins come to get close to him. After all, Qin Weijie is Lao Welfare's designated heir, and these cousins have to come to get close to him.
Aunt Katie also came once, bringing some gifts and apologizing for what happened at the last party.
Of course, Qin Weijie would not quarrel with his aunt because of such trivial matters. That would not be a gentleman at all.
As for the rest, they attended two more banquets. Qin Weijie faked smiles throughout the whole process. In the end, even Lao Welfare couldn't stand it anymore and stopped forcing Qin Weijie to attend the banquets.
After that, Qin Weijie had a lot of leisure time. With a lot of time, Qin Weijie continued to practice magic at Welfare Manor, and also took time to learn Chinese Taoist spells.
However, compared to magic, Taoist spells can be said to have no improvement.
So far, Qin Weijie has only succeeded in making a house-destroying talisman. The effect is okay, but to be honest, it is of no use.
You can't expect Qin Weijie to put a house-warming charm on the door of Hogwarts, right? There are so many protective magics in Hogwarts, but one of his paper charms is still rare?
Although the Xuanfa Talisman has not made much progress, Qin Weijie's body is getting stronger day by day.
This is not only due to the care given to him by the house elves in the kitchen of Welfare Manor, but also due to the Chinese Taoist sect's health and Qi cultivation, life and life cultivation, Tai Chi, pure mind and spirit exercises, guidance, breathing, meditation, etc. Dharma door.
After Qin Weijie's guidance, now the servants, housekeepers, and even the house elves in the kitchen of the entire welfare manor will come to the garden to stand in the garden every day when the sun just rises.
"Sink your shoulders and elbows, bend your joints slightly, look forward, and adjust your breathing..."
Qin Weijie stood in the center of the garden, guiding everyone to follow him in the stance.
The half-hour pile work in the morning has become a beautiful scenery in Welfare Manor. Qin Weijie believes that he is also promoting traditional culture.
"Okay, that's it for today. You all go and do your work. I have to go out later."
Qin Weijie waved his hand to disperse the servants and the house elves.
Mrs. Carter had already prepared a towel for him: "Aren't you going to practice Wu Qin Xi and Tai Chi today?"
"I won't practice anymore. I'm going out today to play with Tom..." Qin Weijie smiled, and then said silently in his heart: It can also be said to be playing with Tom.
"Oh, by the way, Mrs. Carter, where's the gun I asked you to buy for me?"
"I have bought it back. It is an Enfield Mark 1 revolver. It uses 9.2 mm bullets. It is specially customized according to your requirements. It uses better and more durable steel. It will never explode or jam. The problem."
Mrs. Carter said, handing a black short-handled revolver to Qin Weijie.
Looking at the revolver in his hand, Qin Weijie gently stroked the gun body as if he were holding his girlfriend.
Every man has a revolver complex, which cannot be refuted.
If not, then there are only two results. First, you are still young, and second, you do not understand guns.
"Very nice, thank you Mrs. Carter. I think I also need an armpit gun pouch, preferably leather, so it's easy to hide without feeling uncomfortable."
"Okay, Master Vijay, but I still think there is no need for you to use Muggle weapons. Your wand is obviously much more reliable than this."
Qin Weijie curled his lips and did not explain much. He just chuckled and said, "Help me go to the Marquis's study to get some books related to the magical world, and by the way, look carefully for the book "The Source of Magic"."
"Mr. Tostavallen and I have confirmed many times that there is no such book as you mentioned..."
Mrs. Carter's voice became farther and farther away, and Qin Weijie was already walking towards the gate of the manor.
"Muggle weapons? Haha... Never underestimate the power of science. And do you think I would be willing to bring a gun? If it weren't for the fact that the primary spells are basically non-lethal and make it difficult for me to protect myself, do you think I would bring a gun to school? ?”
Qin Weijie complained while walking outside the Welfare Manor.
I have made quite a lot of achievements in my spell learning during this period. However, what is a little embarrassing is that the spells and defense against the dark arts in the first and second years have basically no destructive spells, and I am completely unable to protect myself.
As for the third-grade curse, Qin Weijie bought some textbooks, but an extremely embarrassing question appeared in front of Qin Weijie.
That is, when casting third-grade magic, even if Qin Weijie knew the correct spell, knew the direction to wave the wand, and understood the principle of the spell, even if everything was done perfectly, he still could not successfully cast the spell.
Qin Weijie had already expected such a result. He had encountered a 'magic barrier' at this time.
The entire principle of magic barrier may be complicated to explain, but to put it simply, Qin Weijie's magic power is not enough and he has not reached the standard for performing magic, so even if he is extremely good, he cannot use it.
It was precisely because he encountered such an embarrassing situation that Qin Weijie came up with the idea of preparing a pistol for himself for self-defense.
Although Qin Weijie knew that attacking with a pistol when facing a powerful wizard was a joke, Qin Weijie had his own ideas.
Qin Weijie carries a pistol not for its lethality, but for its surprise.
Most wizards today would not think that a wizard would carry a pistol, so at certain critical moments they would not consider the presence of a pistol. And with such preconceptions, Qin Weijie's pistol was better than surprise. Maybe he can save his life at a critical moment.
After all, Qin Weijie cherishes his life more and is more conscientious. As a human being, he has a future only if he survives.
"No woof woof!"
As soon as Qin Weijie walked out of the welfare manor, there was a dog barking behind him. It was obvious that the two dogs were chasing him. Qin Weijie turned around hurriedly.
"I didn't take you with me. I didn't find you. You are running around every day. I will look for you wherever I go."
"Woof woof woof~" Ergou rubbed Qin Weijie's knees affectionately.
"Don't make trouble. Do you think you were just a few months ago? I just picked you up in my arms. Look at how fat you are now. It's almost as high as my thigh. If you still want me to hug you, it's okay if you carry me. Already..."
"Woooooooo..."
"You're still aggrieved. Don't be shameless. I won't do this. If you want to leave, just leave. If you don't, then go back. I'm going to Diagon Alley with Tom today to prepare some things for school. What's more? School starts in a month..."
One person and one dog walked towards Wu's Orphanage talking and laughing. If Tom knew that Qin Weijie was coming today, he would definitely find an opportunity to escape first.
It's a pity that no one informed him, and Tom was destined to be unable to escape from the clutches of the great devil Qin Weijie.
…
At this time, a group of people hiding in the dark appeared near Qin Weijie. Those people were Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, and they were even on the way to Wu's Orphanage.
"Little Weijie has left the manor and is on his way to Wu's Orphanage. Please pay more attention to the surrounding situation. If any abnormal situation occurs, enter combat mode immediately. You must protect little Weijie."
Pierce, the scarred man, put his wand against his temple and said into the air.
At this time, his words had been passed to the minds of all Aurors within one kilometer of the surrounding area, and others continued to pass on Pierce's orders.
"receive"
After receiving the response, Pierce nodded with satisfaction and continued to carefully observe his surroundings while keeping a distance of fifty meters from Qin Weijie, hiding his figure.
How would Qin Weijie feel if he knew they were conveying information in this way?
"Have you already developed a wireless walkie-talkie? This technology span is a bit big."
