Chapter 108: Uninvited guests at the banquet

To be honest, today is indeed a good day.
In a very cold winter, there are occasionally sunny and chilly days.
In the McMillan restaurant, there are large windows with excellent light transmission in front and back. Light projected through the branches around the mansion, brightening the entire interior space.
At this time, there is a long large dining table in the middle of the restaurant. The table is covered with beautiful red and white checkered tablecloths, and various delicate dishes are lined on it.
These are large plates for eating, which are still empty for the time being, but it is conceivable that after they are filled with food, it will be another wonderful scene.
Near the four walls, there are small round tables for guests to sit and eat with the right people after eating.
At this moment, there are already a lot of people in the restaurant. Most of them stood beside the long table in twos and threes, talking softly as if they had something to say.
"... I heard that there are two special guests coming in the evening. Do you know who they are?"
As soon as she entered the restaurant, she heard two male wizards whispering at the door.
"I just know it, it seems ... McMillan is going to surprise us." Another older witch shook his head, meaningfully.
"Isn't it just a surprise ..." Not far away, a noblely dressed witch suddenly turned around, mysteriously and authentically, "It is said that this time one of the families is coming!"
哦 "Oh-really fake?" The two wizards said together in surprise.
"Who knows if it's true or not, and it's good to have a little news-this time McMillan's house is hidden enough!" The witch waved her hands gracefully.
"But ... those families have disappeared for years, and some people have begun to wonder if they have ..."
"Essentials are all there! It's not that easy!"
Maca just paused, and heard so much news. Although he didn't get anything exact from it, the information contained in it alone was enough for him to figure out a lot.
I walked a few more steps, and he realized that it was no coincidence that he could hear those conversations. Probably because of the news just flowing out, many people are talking about it secretly now!
At this moment, Ernie's father came in through the side door. Beside him, there was a woman who still had a charm, and that should be Ernie's mother.
"You guys have been waiting for a long time, presumably everyone is looking forward to the evening ball, but there is no need to worry." Ernie's father said loudly, "At least, we have to fill our stomachs first?"
He said, he waved his wand.
Suddenly, the large plate on the middle table was immediately filled with small piles of various foods; the wine in oak barrels seemed to be free of money, lined up on the wine racks next to the wall.
On the small dining table around, a large number of goblets appeared out of thin air, which had been poured with pure golden champagne, exuding a very seductive fruity aroma.
"Drink first!" Ernie's father raised his glass and exclaimed, "Merry Christmas!"
Maca took a glass of apple juice from the long table and raised it symbolically.
"Don't drink?" Ernie said curiously.
"Don't drink at least today." Maca shook her head and returned.
I waited for everyone to start walking around. When I went to the long table to pick up the meal, this Christmas party was officially started.
But no one expected that there were a few guests who were late at the moment.
The restaurant's door was pushed open, and Shi Shiran, a few men in black wizard robes, came in.
"... Avery."
The guests whispered, the other party seemed to have some bad intentions.
"Merry Christmas, McMillan," said the man who walked in front, smiling slightly.
It was a black-haired middle-aged man with meticulous hair combing. The wizard robe on his body looked like a good workmanship. It can be seen in his manners that a certain kind of superior mentality has penetrated into the bones.
"I don't remember having invited you," Ernie's father frowned.
"Which is also one of the twenty-eight groups, why should they behave like outsiders?" The other side said, scratching the dust that did not exist on the shoulder, casually.
"I didn't see you say that in front of Weasley's," Ernie's father glanced at him and sneered.
The other side was obviously stunned by this, and the calm smile on his face became stiff.
In my opinion, even if he is always approachable, he is still a member of the pure blood family. When it comes to momentum, it is true of the other party.
Ernie's father was well aware of the entanglement of interests between the pure-blooded families. Seeing that he had already won a point at this moment, he immediately accepted it.
既然 "Since it's here, sit down, Avery."
He snorted, and chose a seat by the door and sat down.
The people who followed him stood behind him, and there was only a little shaman sitting with him.
"Lev, don't sit down ... just say hi to everyone else!"
The little wizard nodded slightly and stood up again. He looked around and walked straight over to Ernie's side, apparently well prepared.
"You are Ernie McMillan?" Lev squinted at Ernie, coldly.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Ernie habitually glanced at his father, only to find that his father only blinked at him.
Hey, dad! What do you mean? Did any sand run into your eyes?
"How's life at Hogwarts? Have fun?"
"Do you think it's a Muggle playground!" Ernie exclaimed.
Paleev gave him a scornful look, and said gently: "Muggles? Playground? Are you McMillan family ready?"
"What are you going to do?" Ernie said indignantly.
"Become another traitor in the 28th clan," Lev gave a strange smile, "like the Weasley family."
Ernie was so angry that he could hardly speak, and after a while he replied, "We are different from you! Self-righteous guy!"
"Is this the education of Hogwarts?" Lev poked his lips.
He glanced around Ernie at will, and looked at Hannah, Leila, and Maca, and then he fixed his eyes on Maca.
"Look at me, your friend may know better than you, how to be a nobleman." Lev said casually, looking at the flat ironed gown on Maca.
In fact, he just made an excuse to continue to disparage Ernie, and he had no interest in Maca itself. But he didn't expect it, but it seemed to happen to Ernie's heart.
哼 "Huh! Who do you think you are comparing with me?" Ernie raised his chin, showing a touch of pride. "He is an elite student of our school, and he is also my roommate and my good friend!"
哦 "Oh?" Lev glanced over to Maca, "elite? Elite?"
"Of course it is all aspects!"
厄 In Ernie's mind, Maca is almost almighty-he is always proud of living in the same bedroom as Maca.
Kelev seemed to have heard a joke, and raised a corner of his mouth to laugh slightly.
全 "All aspects?" Lev smirked. "I can't think of Hogwarts teaching you how to tell jokes ... hahaha ..."
Suddenly he turned his head and looked at Leila, who was curiously watching him talking to Ernie.
"Do you tell jokes too?"
Seeing this, Marka raised her eyebrows immediately.
The Lev and Ernie who appeared here somehow fooled him that he hadn't planned to intervene, but once the little girl Leila Shafic got involved, he could just take advantage of this opportunity.
When he was just chatting and laughing with the three of them in the backyard, he learned the identity of the little girl from Ernie's mouth-this is a member of the Shafic family.
However, the Shafiq family is actually inconspicuous, because this family has always implemented the concept of "low-key management" from beginning to end. They are all involved in some basic industries of the magic world.
沙 One of the most prominent and important industries of the Shafiq family is the production and supply of various magic raw materials.
If you talk about power, this family can only be regarded as moderate; if you want to talk about wealth, the hidden profit is really inestimable.
This is a golden thigh buried in the soil!
"... I don't tell jokes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ But my mother always said to me, 'You are a big joke!'" Leila replied with a smile.
"Ha ha ha ha-" Lev was about to be teased by this little girl, and he grinned and held back a smile, "It's good, it seems Hogwarts-"
"Oh, but I didn't study at Hogwarts ..." Leila suddenly added.
Helev looked at her in surprise and said, "Where do you go to school?"
"At home!" Leila blinked. "My mother teaches me every day."
Lev shook his head and said, "That's a shame. Hogwarts is missing an 'excellent' student! Maybe if you go to Hogwarts to school, Hogwarts will be more An elite of 'all-round' development. "
"Hey, McLegan, he's bragging about me for being good!" Leila turned her head and said happily.
Marka glanced at Leila, then Lev, and then sighed.
"Mr. Avery, I think--" Marka looked at Lev calmly. "Demstron will not teach you how to bully a little girl, right?"
Pu Leila blinked her big eyes and asked Ernie quietly, "Is that guy just bullying me?"
"He was scolding you stupid!" Ernie patted her head, angrily.
"Did I bully her?" Lev slickly said, "Which word bullied her?"
别 "Don't use this childish text trick to pretend, it will only make you insult your family name." Maca grinned at him.
记得 He remembers Leila saying that this smile can make people look ugly-not to mention, the current state of this may be good when talking with the enemy!
