Chapter 323 Sirius' Christmas 3
"Why are you in a daze! Come here quickly!"
Walburga's urging voice made Sirius instantly feel that he might be dreaming, or that the way he opened the door today was wrong.
Otherwise, what greeted him was not insults and reprimands, but this strange and completely confusing urging voice.
Sirius followed the source of the voice and looked in the direction of Walburga——
In a corner of the living room, Walburga was sitting on the sofa in a black floor-length dress. The hem of the long dress was stacked on the dark carpet, and at first glance it seemed to blend into one.
In Walburga's hand was a half-opened atlas. From Sirius' perspective, he could just see the name and logo of Fengya Wizard Clothing Store on the cover of the atlas.
Opposite Walburga is a witch with exquisite makeup, a well-proportioned figure, and a fashionable dress.
Her long hair poured down like a large handful of seaweed, and the big waves made his hair look extremely fluffy, making her already small face even more delicate.
Different from the elegant style currently popular in the wizarding world, she was wearing a thin and sexy green dress.
The fabric of the skirt is very close-fitting, showing her tall and plump figure to the fullest. The skirt is soft, silky and shiny. Even in the light that is not too bright, there is a soft halo floating, like a flowing lake.
"This is Little Mr. Black?" The witch asked Walburga, but her eyes remained on Sirius, from the curly long hair to the handsome eyebrows, from the broad shoulders to the slender thighs.
"He's a natural hanger." After making a preliminary judgment on Sirius' body proportions with critical eyes, she praised with satisfaction.
Sirius should be displeased with this presumptuous sizing as if he was looking at something.
But perhaps because the witch's casual and lazy posture and rare dressing style were so incompatible with the Black family, Sirius' displeasure was dismissed before it arose.
"Come here!" Seeing that Sirius didn't come to his side immediately, Walburga urged with a frown.
Regarding Walburga's tough tone and that disgusting attitude of taking things for granted, Sirius would probably have vehemently opposed Walburga in normal times.
But today, because the expected scene did not appear, what greeted him was not Walburga's scolding. This sense of loss, which was so different from the reality, made it difficult for him to arouse rebellious thoughts at this moment.
and……
There are still people at home that I don't know!
Sirius looked heavily, and glanced at the witch opposite Walburga.
Sensing the gaze from Sirius, the witch smiled brightly at Sirius—the full and bright red lips curled up like a dancing flame.
It was only then that Sirius discovered that not only the dressing style, but also the witch's makeup was quite different from the current fashion in the wizarding world, especially the bright, somewhat dazzling, and extremely aggressive red on her lips.
Sirius quickly prepared his mind and strode towards Walburga.
"This is Sirius, my son." Walburga put his hand on Sirius' shoulder, showing a gesture that seemed to mark the territory.
Sirius felt the weight on his shoulders, and subconsciously wanted to move his body to avoid it, but in the end, reason prevailed and he forcibly endured it.
But it was only at this time that Sirius realized in a trance that... Walburga's hands were also soft...
Like any person—the long and hard finger bones are covered with a layer of soft flesh mixed with slender blood vessels, and the thin flesh is weak and soft.
He thought...
He thought that Walburga and his mother were sharp, hard, and cold from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside!
"This is Ms. Melissa, the chief designer of the Fengya wizard clothing store." Walburga then introduced the identity of the witch in front of Sirius.
Melissa nodded slightly to Sirius as a greeting.
Fengya wizard clothing store?
Chief designer?
Sirius was a little puzzled.
"You went to Hogwarts and haven't been back for nearly four months. The dresses you made before are too small and don't fit well." Walburga explained to Sirius with rare patience.
Eleven or twelve-year-old boys are at the age of slender figure, and in just four months, Sirius has grown visibly to the naked eye - he has grown a little taller, and his body shape has grown a little bit.
Perhaps the changes in Sirius may not be obvious to others, but Walburga feels that Sirius has grown up a lot.
Of course, the so-called "growth visible to the naked eye" is just that Sirius "grows visible to the naked eye" in Walburga's eyes.
For the picky Walburga, clothes must fit the best, even if it is a little bit off, it would be rude to wear it out.
——Although she was furious because of the results of Sirius's sorting, and she ignored her rebellious eldest son for four months, and didn't care about his basic necessities, but the sufficient and uninterrupted pocket money would still be paid on time every month. Into Sirius' vault.
What!You said the pocket money wasn't given by Walburga?But Orion, who is a father, handed it to his son every month?
But without Walburga's acquiescence as the head of the family, how could Orion be allowed to send money to Sirius?
The four months at school can be said to be out of sight and out of mind, but now that Sirius has returned and there are enough social occasions during Christmas that require Sirius to attend as the heir of the Black family, a new suit that fits all It has to be arranged!
Especially... there is another crucial social on Christmas Day!
"Ms. Melissa is invited to come to your house to measure and make a new dress for you."
Walburga saw Sirius' wide school robe collar revealing the straight shirt collar, which was embroidered with fine patterns with black silk thread and silver thread, and there was a little satisfaction mixed in his critical eyes.
"Other banquets and social gatherings are fine, but—" Walburga emphasized, "for the dinner on Christmas Day, your lordship will come to our Blake's house."
Speaking of this, Walburga straightened his back and raised his chin proudly and contentedly.
"It's a great honor for Black—you know, your lordship never accepts any Christmas invitations!"
What's more, Tom has never been a person who is willing to wrong himself. Since he has gained power and no longer needs social growth capital, Tom has completely freed himself in this regard.
In recent years, Tom has basically refused to accept any social invitations.
Therefore, Tom took the initiative to express his interest in the Black family's Christmas banquet this time, which is why Walburga was so surprised!
Although the Black family has always had a close relationship with Tom because of the childhood friendship and years of friendship, but the private friendship is one thing, and this kind of blatantly giving the Black family face is another thing!
Especially—the Averys didn't!The Knotts didn't!The Lestranges did not!Not even the Malfoys!
(Abu: ... What's going on?! Everyone is the same, why do you have to add "more" when you mention Malfoy! Are you doing isolation! Discrimination!)
------
Walburga: Glory!This is the supreme honor of the Black family! ! !
Tang Tangzi: If Afu hadn’t told me that there would probably be a mother-son feud at Black’s house at Christmas, I wouldn’t have “worked overtime” on Christmas to prevent your family from completely breaking out and disrupting the current good situation formed by accidents. ! ——With this time, it would be better to stay with Afu and "cook" Afu in warm water!
(Everyone has seen it - our Tang Tangzi no longer calls "sister" but directly calls "Afu"! As the saying goes, don't call me sister at the end of the year, thinking...)
