Hogwarts: Become the Heir of the Family at the Start

Chapter 38 Old Carter and his little granddaughter

Buying a house, this kind of thing is nothing to hide, Hodge explained his intentions right now, and said that the price is easy to negotiate.

“Um……”

The old man pondered a little, but thinking of his own difficulties, he still said: “Since you are buying a house, let’s talk about it first.”

“Okay, thank you old gentleman.”

Hodge thanked him, and then followed the old man into the room.

The room is quite spacious, and there is nothing messy, except that there is a tool table and a table for eating in the corner.

First, let the three of Hodge sit down, the old man went to bring a pot of water, and poured a glass of water for the three of Hodge.

“Old gentleman…”

“Just call me old Katy.”

“Well, what do you mean?”

Old Katie hesitated for a while, but finally chose to speak out.

“I have a special request. If you can do it, I can give you the house directly!”

“What?”

This time it was Hodge’s turn to be dumbfounded.

Because he believed in a word, there is no free lunch in this world, and if there is, it is mostly a trap.

certainly.

There is no absolute in the world.

Although Hodge was surprised, there was no expression on his face.

“Old… Kat, can you tell me your request first?”

“sure.”

Everything has arrived at this point. Old Katie didn’t hide anything, and immediately said: “I don’t live here alone, I also have a little granddaughter…”

It was a bit complicated, but Hodge understood it anyway.

What’s going on, it was that Old Katie and a friend had an agreement to go to meet up somewhere, but he couldn’t guarantee that he would be able to come back alive based on his current physical condition.

But he, who has kept his promise all his life, must fulfill this promise again.

But the key point is that Old Katt is not alone, he also has a 13-year-old granddaughter of dumb guns.

So the question came out. It didn’t take her away, or it didn’t take her away.

Take it, old Katie can’t even take care of himself, and he is even more powerless to his granddaughter.

And if you don’t take her, where to arrange this is another question.

According to the old Carter’s idea, in fact, he still wants his granddaughter to continue living in Hogsmeade.

But one thing is that this is a wizarding village. When he is there, it is not a big deal to bring a dumb cannon to live here.

But as soon as he left, his dumb granddaughter would no longer be able to stay in the village. Sooner or later, it would be cleared out by the wizards here.

This is the result that Lao Kate didn’t want to see, and didn’t want to see it.

Besides, even if he goes to the world of Muggles, what will happen to his granddaughter who has no relatives there.

Lao Kat’s worries are here.

“Ahem, Master Campbell, I only have one request. If you can keep Belinda and let her live in peace here, I can give you this house directly, without a Nat.”

“Do you believe me that way?”

“What I believe in is the credibility of the Campbell family. I have done many decades of manual work. Back then, I had maintained a wand for Mr. Temple several times. I believe his vision is right.”

“Do you know my grandpa?”

“Fortunately to have seen it several times, that is a very good gentleman…”

All right.

Coupled with this relationship, and a house as a reward, Hodge couldn’t think of any reason to refuse.

It just so happened that after taking down this house, he still lacked a person to watch the shop.

Although the 13-year-old girl is a bit younger, she is not ignorant. If she trains more, she should still be able to just look at a store.

“Old Katie, I agreed to your request. I bought your house to make a small business, so let your granddaughter stay here to help me see the store.”

“Of course, you need to tell her about things, I don’t want to cause any misunderstandings.” Hodge said.

“No problem. I will handle this. Belinda is very smart and sensible. I believe she will understand this.”

Old Kat sighed, although he was reluctant, but he had to do so.

Because he was old, he was not far from death, and he could feel it himself.

Sooner or later, Belinda would lose his protection.

It might as well take this opportunity to solve this matter once and for all.

After discussing the matter, Hodge and the three left together, handing over the remaining time to Old Kat, and let him go and bid farewell to his little granddaughter.

All the way back to Hogwarts.

Neither Lupin nor Quincy mentioned the matter again.

The key is Lao Kat’s own choice, and the two of them really don’t know what to say.

“Mr. Campbell, you are not so good.”

As soon as he emerged from the secret tunnel, Hodge saw the one he least wanted to see, Dumbledore.

It’s really big!

Hodge cast a corner of his mouth, and then he said: “Oh, Mr. Principal, why haven’t you rested yet, aren’t you waiting for us?”

“That’s not true. The disappearance of the three little wizards is indeed a headache, but fortunately, I didn’t know this in advance. I just happened to pass by here just now.”

“Then you are really lucky.”

“I think so.”

Dumbledore smiled, and then said: “Well, Mr. Campbell, just talking about this will not let you escape punishment. You’d better explain first, where did you go tonight?”*
