HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 29 A day in Hogward Village



Ever since they promised the Weasley brothers a chance to go to Hogward Village with them that day, the two of them had often pestered Cho Chang, meeting each other by chance in the library, having dinner in the Great Hall, and meeting each other in the Black Lake and Cedry. The two of them could come out from time to time when Ke was hanging out and chatting.

"Hey! What a coincidence!"

Cho Chang and Cedric were sitting on the lawn by the lake, looking at the unfathomable black lake, chatting about the extracurricular tasks assigned by Professor Snape in Potions class.

Fred suddenly emerged from between the two of them, showing his head to separate them.

"Today is the weekend, and you happen to be here. Four of us, the Whomping Willow Witnesses, are here. Do you want to go with us?"

"Ok?"

Cedric hadn't figured out the situation yet. He only knew that the quiet and beautiful afternoon time between himself and Qiu Zhang had been broken. However, Cedric's gentlemanly demeanor and politeness prevented him from showing his dissatisfaction clearly on his face, and he still showed a friendly attitude. He stared at the Weasley twins with puzzled smiles.

Qiu Zhang naturally knew what Fred meant. After all, he had promised them many times. Seeing Fred standing between him and Cedric to disturb the whole afternoon as if he didn't agree, there was also George beside him. Qiu Zhang stared at him with a slightly aggrieved and disappointed expression, but Qiu Zhang still softened his heart.

"Digory, I promised them before that I would go with them to the Whomping Willow tunnel we discovered before..."

"I am coming too!"

Almost before Qiu Zhang finished speaking, Cedric immediately responded and asked to be with Qiu Zhang. He didn't know why he wanted to accompany Qiu Zhang when he heard Qiu Zhang's relenting tone, even if it might risk violating school rules. .

"Ah, of course!"

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but jump up happily when he saw Cedric being so active. George and Fred next to them saw that Qiu Zhang was so happy and excited about Cedric's company, and reluctantly curled their lips without saying anything.

"Then let's set off! There are few people around the Black Lake now."

The four of them came to the Whomping Willow familiarly. The Weasley twins tried to attract the Whomping Willow's attention. Cho Chang and Cedric quickly hid by the trunk of the Whomping Willow and pressed the knots. The four of them seemed to have such a tacit understanding. , with the perfect cooperation of the four people, the Whomping Willow stopped its movements, and the obscure hole also appeared.

Cedric and Qiu Zhang slowly followed the lead of the Weasley twins through the dark and narrow passage to a dusty and dirty small house that resembled a tent house. After opening the door and going out, their vision suddenly became brighter. In the early winter weather, there was a light snow falling on the streets, and it was bustling with people coming and going. When the Weasley twins came here, it was like they had liberated their natures. They were so happy that Fred pulled Qiu Zhang and wanted to take her too. Check out the fun products at the Spice Joke Shop.

"Qiu, you must go and see it with us!"

George also slowly approached Qiu Zhang and put his arm on Qiu Zhang's shoulders, looking very affectionate and inviting.

"That's right, Qiu, we can't live without you... Our prankster trio will definitely..."

"No, as you know, I am more curious about other places in Hogward Village than pranks..."

Cho Chang politely declined the invitation of the Weasley twins, but rather than saying that he was not interested in pranks, George always felt that Cho Chang's words were like saying that he was not interested in the Weasleys and wanted to be with that boring gourd Cedric. Same together.

George's hand that was still on Qiu Zhang's shoulder was carefully moved away by Qiu Zhang. George still paused in his actions until Fred pulled him away.

"Then let's leave first and gather at the Pengwu to return to school at 7 p.m."

"Ok!"

After Cho Chang and Weasley said goodbye, they turned around and found that Cedric seemed a little uninterested.

"What's the matter, Diggory?"

"This is Hogward Village? So have you been here before?"

"Ah, no, I know these are what George and the others told me. Didn't they talk about this place with you?"

Seeing Cedric's silence, Qiu Zhang probably guessed that the Weasley brothers didn't tell Cedric anything about this place.

"It doesn't matter. We can have a nice walk together today. I heard that only third graders can come to Hogward Village. This requires the permission of the professor and it's only on holidays. We've made a profit now, right?"

Qiu Zhang put his arm on Cedric's shoulder and comforted him thoughtfully. Cedric just smiled helplessly, and when he saw Qiu Zhang, who was trying to make him laugh, his concerned eyes only stayed on him, Cedric was immediately satisfied.

[She chose me instead of Weasley...]

Cedric suddenly felt very satisfied with this.

The day in early winter was still a bit cool. Qiu Zhang and Cedric went shopping and bought some magic items and potions. Qiu Zhang, who wanted to learn knitting, also stopped by and bought some woolen clothing materials at Fengya Wizard Clothing Store. Comparing the colors on Cedric made Cedric lower his head shyly.

"What are you..."

"Ah, it's nothing. I want to learn knitting recently!"

The hands were a little stiff from the cold, and the two of them were holding each other unconsciously. The two arrived at Mrs. Puddieffe's Tea House, and went in to drink some hot tea to warm themselves up.

Everything in the small and cramped teahouse was decorated with tacky lace, and there were several large round tables with ladies and hat-wearing gentlemen sitting here and there. Those dresses looked like medieval earl princesses, but they were quite similar. The decoration style of this teahouse is particularly uniform.

Qiu Zhang and Cedric ordered a pot of fruit tea and sat next to the window, drinking tea to warm themselves up and admiring the snowy scenery outside the window.

"Ow!"

Cedric couldn't help but exclaim, Qiu Zhang immediately looked at Cedric with nervous eyes, and saw that Cedric was rubbing his forehead in embarrassment, and there was a fat golden angel in the sky smashing candies from time to time.

"Pfft! Digory, it seems he likes you quite a bit!"

"Zhang, stop joking."

Cedric blushed shyly, his gentlemanly etiquette made him embarrassed to wave the fat angel away, and he just silently endured the fat angel's "doting".

Qiu Zhang couldn't stand it any longer, so he stepped forward and gently asked Fat Angel to please him. As expected, Fat Angel was moved by Qiu Zhang's gentle and beautiful smile, shyly twisted his buttocks, handed Qiu Zhang a candy, and left shyly.

Qiu Zhang turned around and looked back to see that Cedric's neat hair had become messy at some point, which was completely inconsistent with his former image of a gentle gentleman.

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but find it funny. With a doting smile, he raised his hand to smooth Cedric's hair and comb it neatly.

"Digory, you're quite cute like this!"

Cedric didn't speak, he just raised his big innocent eyes to look at Qiu Zhang who was smiling sweetly at him, and couldn't help but smile happily.

After quickly finishing the snacks and drinking tea, Qiu Zhang and Cedric took the things they bought in Hogward Village and prepared to return.

"Hey, wait, I want to buy some quills!"

Qiu Zhang suddenly saw a small and elegant storefront, with a few words engraved on it that looked like the color of the ink and the aroma of books—Literenju Quill Shop.

When you walk in, you are greeted by the scent of ink and parchment, and what comes into view are rows of various quill pens and ink brands placed on the shelves.

Qiu Zhang and Cedric each picked some quills of their favorite colors. When they were about to pay, Qiu Zhang suddenly noticed a pair of orange-red quills standing next to the cashier, which reminded Qiu Zhang of that naughty man. A pair of mischievous brothers, this pair of quills were made of magpie tail feathers. Qiu Zhang somehow took the pair of quills up and paid for them.

The next two people quickly arrived at the tent and waited for a long time. The Weasley twins arrived late, with smiles on their faces as if they hadn't had enough fun.

"Then let's go back!"

"Uh-huh!"

The twins Cedric and Weasley are familiar with walking through the long and narrow passage back to the Whomping Willow in Hogwarts.

-------Dividing line-------

At night, Qiu Zhang lit a warm yellow candle and tinkered with an orange-red magpie quill in front of the table.

Qiu Zhang rummaged through the spell book, flipping back and forth to search, and finally saw a satisfactory page.

"This is it!"

Qiu Zhang nodded with satisfaction, raised his wand and tried to cast a spell on an ordinary quill. As Qiu Zhang recited the spell, Qiu Zhang pressed the wand and slowly wrote the word Qiu Zhang in the air, although it was not It looks good, but the crooked line of Qiu Zhang was still successfully engraved on the quill barrel of the experiment.

It officially started. Qiu Zhang took a long breath and pointed the wand at one of the quills. After chanting the spell, he began to slowly write down a stroke. Qiu Zhang's forehead and nose were sweating nervously. Before she could hesitate any more, Qiu Zhang carefully wrote a stroke. After writing down Fred Weasley's name in one stroke, the result was not bad at last. Fred Weasley had been writing neatly and successfully stroke by stroke on the quill.

After two experiments, Qiu Zhang became proficient. When faced with George Weasley's name, he wrote George Weasley easily and smoothly using his usual writing method with dots and continuous strokes.

Qiu Zhang packed the two quills respectively, and then put the special ink he had prepared in advance, making a special note of the magical ink! Packed in a fiery red lion-patterned bag.
