v4 Chapter 74： Ella's death

The second day of Christmas, everyone got up very late. The common room in Slytherin was much quieter than the previous days, and people were talking one after another, interrupted by yawns from time to time.

There are 9 days away from the start of school on January 4th.

Before Christmas, almost everyone just focused on playing. Now they are beginning to find that there are only ten days left, and little wizards can be seen everywhere in the common room.

Xie Lin did his homework. After all, most professors have given some preferential treatment because of his warrior status. Even the ghost professor Binns rarely congratulated Schelling on his victory in the first project in the class. This made other little wizards very confused. Schelling might be The first student whose name is remembered by Professor Bins in recent decades.

Although there was no homework, Schelling and Draco had to leave Hogwarts. There was bad news from the family—grandmother Druila Black had passed away.

Schelling and Draco used Floo powder to go to Druela’s small house that day under the arrangement of Lucius.

Schelling is not a merciless person. Although she doesn't spend much time with this grandmother, she loves herself sincerely, and her gifts are indispensable for Christmas and birthday every year. During Xie Lin's short stay in her home, the old man made delicious food for him every day, and he was always worried that Xie Lin often soaked in the pile of books would be bad for his eyes, and he bought Xie Lin expensive eye potions.

However, Druela is dead. Before she died, the house elves had brought Lucius and his wife there. Although she could not see her most beloved grandson for the last time, she was not alone in going to the dead. world. For her departure, Schelling, who has been a human for two generations, is not in grief, but she is also a little bit down and sad.

Schelling stayed at my grandmother's house for two days. During the period, he and Draco helped Lucius and his wife to receive relatives and friends who came to express their condolences.

Although the Black family has declined, it refers to the patrilineal bloodline. As the largest pure-blooded family in the wizarding world, the generation of grandfather Segnas Black actually had many cousins, and their bloodline is still being passed down. For example, Mr. Crouch and his two sisters, their mother is Charis Black of the Black family.

In other words, Mr. Crouch and Schelling’s grandfather are cousins. They are all respectable figures in politics and need to be treated with care.

Actually, Mr. Arthur Weasley is the same. He is also the cousin of Segnas Black. However, the Weasley family has been delisted because they are called "pure blood traitors" and will not be invited to attend the funeral at all.

There is another guest. Although she was not invited, she has been removed from the family, but she still came.

Schelling's second aunt-Andomeda Black.

Ironically, she was clearly Druela’s biological daughter, but her arrival was completely unwelcome. Narcissa didn't say a word to her at all. She just pursed her lips and stared at her indifferently, but the trembling palms still betrayed her inner excitement. After all, she still cared about the sisters' affection, and failed to get her heart out and drive her second sister out.

Drew Ella has three daughters-Bella Tricks, Andometa, and Narcissa. The relationship between the three sisters is very good. From the original book, Aunt Bella, who is Voldemort's most ardent follower, is The willingness to hide from Voldemort for Narcissa's magical contract with Snape is evident.

It's a pity that this sincere relationship between sisters became fragmented after Andometa fell in love with the Muggle wizard and got married. Andometa was expelled from the family, and the two sisters and Andometa also severed all contacts. .

Since the father and mother, and Draco, were not willing to pay attention to this aunt, Schelling had to come forward. First of all, Xie Lin's name is loud enough. Although he is a younger generation, none of the people present dared to accuse him casually.

Moreover, Xie Lin's reason for coming forward can be said to be justified. First of all, no matter who the other party is or what status, she always expresses condolences with kindness. Such neglecting her can be said to violate the education of nobles. At the same time, Schelling's actions fell in the eyes of some people in the political circle, and it can also be interpreted as Schelling's attitude towards pure blood ideas.

Schelling knew that he had afflicted the Ghost Society and Walpius, and now he doesn’t care if he will provoke more pure-blooded extreme enemies. On the contrary, if he exposes his attitude appropriately, he can also reap pure-blood. The moderates in the family let them know that in this wizarding world, in addition to the extremes of pure blood supremacy and pure blood traitors, there is actually a third possibility.

Andomeida was moved and cried under Schelling's warm voice, but she kept repeating only "good boy, good boy". To be honest, she came to this trip with great courage. She was already psychologically prepared to be bombarded by others. She was also psychologically prepared to be ridiculed, despised, and even insulted. A younger generation received and condoned her, which made her so touched that she couldn't speak a complete sentence.

In addition to the branch of the Black family, the Rochier family from which Drew Ella was born has also come. Ivan Rochar, the last bloodline of the Rochar family, was killed by Moody, who was the Auror at the time, because of his involvement with the Death Eaters. But the Rochelle family is actually a family from France, and the French branch is the core of the Rochelle family.

In France, Rochelle is one of the 12 holy blood tribes with the longest history, and at the top of the ranking, it also belongs to the second echelon. This is because some members of the family were implicated in the Battle of Grindelwald, otherwise The words are enough to challenge the existence of the Monroe family.

On the afternoon of the second day of the funeral, Druela was officially buried.

Just after the funeral ceremony was completed, a well-dressed middle-aged wizard approached Schelling. He was the will processing commissioner sent by the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic. He read out Druela's will in front of the Schelling family.

According to the statement in the will, Druela passed all her inheritance, including the treasury of Gringotts, this small house, the house elf Sasha, various valuable antiques, etc., to Schelling. The most precious grandson. Schelling signed his name on a series of magic contracts, and registered the name of the "Ella House" for this small house with the Ministry of Magic in honor of Dru Ella.

After everything was done, Schelling planned to leave with his parents and Draco, but he didn't expect to be stopped by an old witch with shrewd eyes, thick long eyebrows, and short black hair.

Schelling remembered seeing this rigorously dressed lady the first day he came to Ella’s hut, but strangely, he didn’t even know her name-Schelling was very dedicated to entertain everyone. For the guests who came to mourn, he has read every guest list, and with his memory, it is even more unlikely that there will be mistakes or forgotten situations.

To Schelling's expectation, Lucius just nodded to the old witch and told Schelling to stay and return to Malfoy Manor on his own when the matter was over.

The old witch introduced herself as Aunt Vida, a distant blood relative of Druila’s family in France, and a branch of the Rochelle family. She was wanted for crimes in France and fled to the United Kingdom, where she was taken in by Druila. And received a lot of help from her.

Xie Lin suddenly realized that he thought of a name that had long been forgotten by everyone-this old woman in front of me is an amazing person!

Vida Rochelle She is the left and right arms of the first Dark Lord Grindelwald. She is in a high position among the saints and is famous. How much Grindelwald trusts her can be seen from the divination skull she was assigned to take charge of Grindelwald.

"Xie Lin, don't you mind if I call you like that? You can call me aunt, so kind." With Vida's eyes, I can see the faint dark magic scent on Xie Lin's body, and it also includes it. She was familiar with the black magic of the Rochelle family.

"Auntie," after Xie Lin knew the identity of the person in front of him, she knew that she was a very savvy and powerful person, and he did not dare to slack off. "Hello, is there anything Xie Lin can help you with?"

Vita smiled indifferently: "I knew it when I saw you. You are a shrewd little guy, very pleased to me, because talking to someone like you can save a lot of effort. Let me put it this way, I listen to other people. People said, you are Druela’s most beloved grandson. I had received a lot of favors from her back then, so I hope I can do something for you to repay her—"

These words did not surprise Schelling. In Schelling's reputation, no one would believe that he was a fool. Moreover, from the will just read out, anyone can tell that Schelling is Druila's favorite. Grandson.

Vida's next words are different, her eyes suddenly become very sharp, "I have a question to ask you, have you learned the family magic of our Rochelle family?"
