- Chapter 27 - Christmas at Malfoy Manor (1)
At school, Nydia often heard Malfoy showing off to others how luxurious Malfoy Manor was. Nydia only thought that he was bragging again, after all, he said that his broomstick skills were extremely proficient. However, when she actually came here, Nydia felt that Malfoy was not exaggerating at all. This place was indeed amazingly luxurious. There was a reason why Malfoy ridiculed Ron’s family like that.
“Nidia, you are finally here.” Narcissa Malfoy came out to greet Nidia very enthusiastically. “I asked the servants to make a lot of snacks. I hope you like them.”
“Thank you, Aunt Narcissa.” Nydia felt flattered every time she saw Narcissa.
“Thank you for the invitation, Narcissa.” Mr. Field greeted Narcissa. “These gifts were selected by Nydia. I hope you like them.”
“Really? The gift that Nidia picked must be great. Thank you Nidia, you are so sensible.” Narcissa was obviously very happy. “Ward, Lucius has been waiting for you for a long time. Come to the study with me quickly. He has a lot to say to you. As for Nydia, Draco and his friends are in the living room. Go find them quickly. Let’s play.” Narcissa snapped her fingers, and a house elf appeared in front of Nydia.
“Dobby, take Miss Field to the living room to find the young master. Don’t neglect.” After saying that, Narcissa took Ward to the study.
“Miss Field, please come with me.” The house elf named Dobby saluted Nydia.
“Thank you Dobby,” Nydia said.
“Miss, you don’t need to say thank you. Dobby is just a house elf.” Nydia’s thanks frightened Dobby.
Seeing Dobby’s behavior, Nydia said nothing more. She understood that all house elves were like this, and it took Kira and Maggie a long time to adapt to Nydia’s polite words to them.
Arriving at the client, it turned out just as Nydia had guessed, the partners Aunt Narcissa was talking about were Pansy and Blaise. The atmosphere became a little awkward when Nidia appeared in the living room. She was incompatible with them at school, but Nidia greeted them first out of politeness.
“Why are you here?” Pansy was very angry at Nitya’s appearance. “Draco, you actually invited someone from Gryffindor.”
“My mother insisted on inviting her here. I thought she would refuse!” Although he said this, Malfoy was still very happy when Nydia appeared.
“Some people just can’t understand what others are saying and they’re just being polite.” After hearing Malfoy’s explanation, Pansy rolled her eyes at Nydia.
Nydia was in an awkward situation. She didn’t want to quarrel with them and embarrass Aunt Narcissa, but she was not familiar with this place. It would be rude to walk around without permission if she entered somewhere she shouldn’t have entered.
“I don’t care about the academy or not, as long as they are beautiful, I like them all.” Blaise walked towards Nitya with a smile. “Nitya, this is your first time coming to Malfoy Manor! Let me show you around.”
“Okay, thank you.” Brace’s invitation relieved Nidia from her embarrassing situation, and Nidia happily agreed as if she was grasping a life-saving straw.
“Wait a minute.” Just when Nydia was about to follow Blaise around, Malfoy suddenly stopped them, “This is Malfoy Manor. It’s not your turn, Blaise, to show the guests around!”
“I think I know enough about Malfoy Manor that I can do it for you, Draco. You can rest well here,” Blaise said.
“I said it’s not your turn to take care of this matter. Just stay here with Pansy.” Malfoy’s expression was already slightly angry.
“I also want to visit the manor together.” Pansy heard that Malfoy was going to take Nydia to visit the manor, and she immediately followed her.
“You stay here, aren’t you familiar enough with this?” Malfoy didn’t give Patsy a chance to argue, and tugged on Nydia’s sleeve and left.
After coming out of the living room, Malfoy let go of Nydia’s sleeves and walked in front alone without saying a word. Nydia had no choice but to follow behind him while admiring the luxury of Malfoy Manor.
“Where do you want to know?” Malfoy suddenly stopped and asked Nydia.
“Um… I don’t know. I think, can we go see the garden? When I first came in from outside, I saw that the green plants were well trimmed, but I didn’t have time to take a closer look.” Malfoy suddenly asked, and Nettie Yayi didn’t know what to say for a moment. She had never been here before. If she really wanted to ask what she wanted to know, she could only answer everything.
“What’s so interesting about a bunch of flowers and plants?” Malfoy muttered, but still led Nydia towards the garden.
The two walked in the garden one after another, leaving a series of footprints on the snow. The white snow covered the entire garden and refracted the light under the sunlight. The entire garden was like an exquisite ice and snow kingdom. Malfoy was still speechless all the way, and had no intention of introducing anything to Nydia. Nydia didn’t ask anything, just admiring the scenery in the garden, thinking that maybe she could learn from the style here when she goes back, so that Mr. Philips repairs the gardens at Lower Field Hall.
Nydia suddenly remembered the first time she met Malfoy. At that time, she took him to visit Field Manor, but now it was Malfoy who took her to visit Malfoy Manor. The difference is that the atmosphere now is completely different from that then.
“Don’t you feel cold?” Malfoy suddenly asked Nydia.
“Fortunately, the weather is good today.” Although the ground is covered with snow, today is a rare day with sunshine in winter. “If you feel cold, I can walk around by myself.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? How can I, a boy, be more afraid of the cold than you, a girl!” Malfoy said.
“What is that? There seems to be something moving.” Nydia’s eyes passed through Malfoy and looked not far behind him. She quickened her pace and walked over.
“Is this… is this a white peacock? It’s incredible, so beautiful.” Nidia was attracted by the white peacock in front of her that almost blended into the white snow.
“This was raised by my mother.” After walking for so long, this was the first time Malfoy really introduced it to Nydia.
“Aren’t they afraid of the cold? As far as I know, peacocks are unique to tropical areas.” Looking at the peacocks walking in the white snow, Nidia couldn’t take her eyes away.
“The anklets on their feet have the effect of keeping away the cold. Mother cherishes them so much that she is reluctant to let them get cold.” Malfoy pointed to the metal rings on the peacock’s feet. There are three peacocks in total. “My mother said that only noble peacocks are worthy of our garden.”
“It’s indeed beautiful.” A peacock seemed to notice Nidia’s presence and walked towards her, and Nidia also walked up to it excitedly. “Can I touch them?”
“They generally don’t like…” Before Malfoy could finish his words, a scene that surprised him happened.
The peacock actually stayed in front of Nidia obediently, letting Nidia stroke its feathers. You must know that they are usually very arrogant and usually don’t talk to anyone at all, not even Malfoy himself. caressed their feathers.
“They are so good, how can they be trained?” Nidia was very happy looking at the peacocks that were so obedient to her.
“Actually, they’re not usually like this.” Malfoy didn’t understand why the usually unruly peacock became so docile today. “Most people don’t even bother to talk to them.”
“Then I’m really lucky.” Nidia murmured to herself.
After bidding farewell to the beautiful and charming peacock, Malfoy continued to lead Nydia around the courtyard. Perhaps because he had seen the stunning peacock, other scenery became less attractive, and Nydia also became lost. Malfoy seemed to notice his interest, so he quickly led Nydia back into the house.
