Chapter 68 Grandpa’s Family Banquet
"What is Nobo?"
The sudden sound startled Fan Lin. With a somewhat nervous expression, he took back Bai He's hand, and then quickly stood up.
"Grandma!"
"Don't be so nervous, kid!" Nangong Yun smiled, "It can be seen that they like you very much."
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, what is Nobo?"
"It's a dragon, the Norwegian Ridgeback!" Fan Lin said sheepishly, "It was raised by the Hogwarts Gamekeeper, Rubeus Hagrid."
"Dragon?" Nangong Yun said in surprise: "I remember that the British Ministry of Magic prohibited private breeding of dragons in captivity!"
"Oh, of course." Al quickly explained: "We suggested that Hagrid go to Dumbledore to register a legal identity for Noble and let Noble guard the Forbidden Forest for Hogwarts."
"It's a very good idea. I think Abu Si will agree. He is quite capable of dealing with the dragon. After all, he has also studied "Twelve Usages of Dragon Blood"." Nangong Yun smiled and touched Fan Lin with his hand. head of.
"It can be seen that you also like these magical creatures very much. I think you must be willing to have a good communication with our animal trainer, Mr. Pang Yuan. He has privately raised many magical creatures. He thought he could hide it. I."
"Well, there will be plenty of time to see these in the future, my child! Now it's time for you and me to meet that old man of your grandpa." It seemed that grandma was quite satisfied with grandpa.
"Okay, grandma." Fan Lin quickly stood over. With his previous travel experiences, Fan Lin had basically understood the rules of teleportation.
After a flash of light and shadow, Fan Lin came to a strange house, but it didn't look like he was in the Nine Immortals Academy. The architectural style is more modern, like a manor.
"Okay, come in!" Nangong Yun pressed his hand in the air, and the iron door was pushed open.
"Welcome back, mistress." An old and ugly thing similar to a goblin stood aside respectfully and took the coat from Nangong Yun's hand.
"This is this?" Fan Lin looked at the little thing in front of him, with a long big nose, two pointed ears hanging down from both sides, and a pair of eyes that looked particularly hazy.
"Oh, this is a house elf. It is very common in Europe. Its name is Vitor." Nangong Yun nodded towards old Vitor, "He has been here for a long time. It was your great-grandfather's time." It was given to your great-grandfather by the British Eston family."
Fan Lin looked at the house elf in front of him. It was completely different from what he knew. Fan Lin could tell from before that grandma respected old Vitor very much.
As far as he knew, in the homes of European nobles, there would be a few house elves serving them. This was considered a noble tradition, but there, the house elves were dressed in rags and had no status.
"Madam, and this young master, the master is already waiting for you in the hall." Old Vitor bowed and forced out a rather ugly smile.
"Okay, go down, Vitor!" After Nangong Yun nodded, old Vitor lowered his head, took two steps back respectfully, and then disappeared without a trace.
"I once asked him not to be so restrained, but he didn't listen." Nangong Yun looked at his grandson with a sense of helplessness.
"Let's go in." He took Fan Lin's hand and walked into the house step by step.
As soon as I walked in, what was different from what I expected was that my grandfather's home was more of a Muggle family environment. I thought it would be in the style of a screen pavilion like the Nine Immortals Academy.
"How is it? It feels pretty good. These are all what I mean. Your grandma and I have lived in France since I was a child, and then my great-grandfather brought me back here. At first, I asked to decorate the house like this, but your grandpa was still unwilling in every possible way, but Now I’m asking him to go back to sleep on the hard bed, I guess he will refuse.”
"Ahem..." A heavy coughing sound came from the sofa.
"Who said I can't sleep?" The man stood up with bright eyes. Although there were many wrinkles on his face and a head of gray hair, he looked very energetic overall.
"Hey, how about I change your room to look like that for you alone, then you will be satisfied." Nangong Yun did not hide the dissatisfaction in his words.
"Just change it. I'll ask Vitor to change everything in my study soon." The man snorted heavily, then sat on the sofa and stopped talking.
"Hmph, old guy." Nangong Yun ignored the man's emotions and leaned over to look at Fan Lin and said, "This old guy is your grandfather Lin Tianxiong."
"Hello, grandpa." Upon hearing this, Fanlin quickly and respectfully greeted his grandpa.
But after waiting for a long time, Fanlin heard a heavy nasal sound coming from the sofa.
"Old thing!" Nangong Yun cursed dissatisfiedly, "Okay, kid, grandma will take you to dinner. Old Vitor is a good cook."
Grandma led him straight to the restaurant. When passing by the sofa, Fanlin saw his grandpa holding a roll of bamboo slips and studying something intently.
Although he really wanted to ask what was written on it, when he thought of his grandfather's attitude, Fanlin felt that it would be better to say less.
Under the service of Old Vitor, the table was soon filled with all kinds of Chinese dishes, which Fan Lin had never seen before.
Just when I was about to pick up a piece of food with my fork and try it, suddenly the fork in my hand was as heavy as a lead weight and I couldn't lift it up.
"Didn't your father teach you that you should wait for your elders to eat first?" As he spoke, Lin Tianxiong walked straight to the main seat without looking at Fan Lin, and saw that Vitor had already placed grandfather's bowls and chopsticks at some point. Put them neatly.
"That's enough for you, old man. Are you too old to lose your mind?" Nangong Yun looked angrily at Lin Tianxiong, who was slowly and slowly making noises from the moment he entered the door, and in front of his grandson who was here for the first time. This made Nangong Yun was very angry.
Seeing this, Fan Lin quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to his grandfather, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. Please don't be angry, grandpa."
"Hmm..." It was the same long nasal voice. However, Lin Tianxiong never looked at Fan Lin from the beginning to the end.
Because of his grandfather's attitude, the atmosphere throughout the meal became very tense. Fan Lin didn't understand that he had provoked his grandfather, so he had to carefully eat bit by bit with a fork, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Nangong Yun, on the other hand, didn't eat a bite. Apart from taking care of Fan Lin, he was always angry with his grandfather.
Finally, when the dinner was over, Fan Lin felt that this was the most unforgettable meal he had ever eaten.
"Come to the study with me." Lin Tianxiong wiped his lips carefully with a napkin, and after saying a few words, he left the dining table without looking back.
Looking at Lin Tianxiong getting up and leaving, Nangong Yun cursed the old man again, nodded to Fan Lin, and signaled Fan Lin and his grandfather to come in. (To be continued)
