[Comprehensive] What you wear is an attitude

Chapter 102 Morfin Gunter 10

The funeral at Marvolo Gaunt was neither grand nor shabby, but it looked a bit bleak, except for Wuxu, the little Tom in his arms, and Merope who was called back by Wuxu, there was no one else. nobody else.

Marvolo doesn't get along well with his neighbors, it doesn't need to be emphasized at all, because Marvolo hates Muggles so much, he can't wait to snatch the wand back from Wuxu's hand, and cast a death curse on those Muggles around him .But Wuxu didn't allow it. When Marvolo was not mad, he had discussed with Wuxu that he would not know about the Muggle Repelling Curse around the house.

Wu Xu did not completely object to this point, but he did not, as Marvolo had imagined, cover the entire street with the spell and make all the Muggles walk around.

That leaves an entire street empty, which is not good.

From Marvolo's disgusting Muggle behavior, it can be seen that those neighbors who once wanted to express their kindness to Wu Xu, a father with a bad mind, all left around Marvolo in the end.In addition, Wuxu didn't get along well with the neighbors, and as a result, no ordinary people came to Marvolo's funeral.

As for those people in the magic world, let alone.

There are quite a few wizards, but now they don’t know where they are hiding, and although the devil Grindelwald did not do anything to invade Britain, the saints who sat down by the devil still brought a lot of excitement to the tense British magic world. A lot of trouble.

In such a situation where everyone is in danger, the magic world, which has almost no connection with the Gaunt family and almost has a bad impression, naturally no one comes.

Marvolo's funeral ended so silently, and Merope, who was called back by Wuxu to attend his father's funeral, had a somewhat erratic expression from the beginning to the end.

There wasn't much emotion on her face because Merope felt like everything around her wasn't real.I think it's fake, so naturally it's hard to integrate emotions into it.

After the funeral, Wuxu returned home and poured a cup of tea with Merope, who was sitting on the sofa in a daze. It wasn't until Little Tom fell asleep that Merope asked Wuxu as if he was a little uncertain: "Dad... just left like this?"

Before Wu Xu could reply, she answered the phone again, "I thought he would always be there."

"Even Merlin can't live forever." Wu Xu said, he gently put the sweet little Tom who was sleeping tightly by his sleeve into the stroller next to him.

Although ordinary people are not as powerful as wizards, they can think of ways to make their lives more convenient and colorful that many wizards can't imagine.

Wuxu took little Tom to rest. At night, Wuxu heard Merope's soft and suppressed crying from Merope's room.

Merope was crying, probably not even knowing what she was crying about.

Marvolo is odious to everyone, including his children.But for Merope who lived under his oppression, Marvolo represented not only these, but also other things.

She was afraid of Marvolo, but she never thought that one day, Marvolo, who was so terrible in her eyes, would die.And Marvolo's death seems to mean that she can never go back to the past.

The Merope Gaunt who used to be much more innocent than he is now.

The next day, instead of going to school, Merope went to the kitchen early in the morning to cook a meal that looked good.It wasn't easy for Merope, even if she had worked hard at it in order to live with Tom Riddle.

But she was a witch after all, the wand was easier to use, and most of the time, she ate rusks.

Merope put the meals on the table, and then went to Little Tom's room to see Little Tom. Not long after, Wuxu heard the sound of footsteps.

The footsteps were light and unsteady, but after a while, Wuxu found himself floating.

Crookedly, he floated towards the direction of the sound of footsteps, and after a turn, a small figure hugged Wuxu's leg, and Wuxu also fell to the ground.

"Little Tom." Wu Xu looked down at the chubby little guy, and the little guy holding his leg looked up and gave him a very pitiful little look.

Not long after, the loli-shaped Merope who seemed to be in a hurry also ran out. After seeing little Tom hugging Wuxu's leg, Merope's expression was slightly embarrassed, "Tom..." She stood stiffly There.

Wu Xu picked up little Tom from the ground, without saying anything, went straight to little Tom's room, and changed the little guy's clothes.

During this period, Merope wanted to accept the job many times, but was pushed back by Little Tom either staring or pretending to cry.

Merope appeared to little Tom as a strange girl who might rob him of an uncle, not his mother.

When Merope was thrown into the school by Wu Xu, little Tom couldn't remember anyone, and now the two-year-old little Tom has already forgotten about Merope.

In the end, Merope withdrew his hand in disappointment, and watched Wuxu float little Tom in the air, and then used magic to put himself on little Tom, and little Tom seemed to like playing this game with Wuxu very much.

"I made some food..." Merope said in a low voice after Wuxu dressed little Tom, "I just want to come and change little Tom's clothes." As a result, little Tom ran out by himself, He even brought Wuxu here.

After eating, Wu Xu started his day's work, and Merope, who followed Wu Xu and Little Tom, always wanted to improve the relationship with Little Tom but was always afraid to go forward.

Seeing Wuxu busy with other things, little Tom always sat beside Wuxu very obediently, not knowing what he was playing.Or when Wuxu was reading a book, occasionally, little Tom would suddenly slip into Wuxu's arms and get a slightly helpless smile from Wuxu, and then little Tom would occupy Wuxu's lap and look down with Wuxu Holding the book in Wuxu's hand, I don't know if I can understand it.

After staying at home for three days, Merope left. Before leaving, she said to Wu Xu: "Brother Morfin, you take good care of little Tom."

Merope is always cowardly and sensitive. Although Marvolo used to treat her badly, after all these years, she still has feelings for Marvolo.

Marvolo's death, for Merope, was like something was lost in his life.But for Merope, the bigger blow was Little Tom's attitude towards her.

Little Tom seemed to regard her as a stranger and would not let her approach at all, and at the same time he did not like her approaching Wu Xu.

As if she was the extra one.

Obviously her photo is still on little Tom's bedside, and Wu Xu has also told little Tom who his mother is.

Or is it because she's getting smaller?Merope didn't know, she just wanted to leave, and if she didn't think about it, she would feel a lot better.

"You have been away, Little Tom doesn't know you, so naturally he won't let you come near." Wuxu said so much to Merope, and when Merope left, he seemed to be comforted by Wuxu's words, it seems It doesn't sound so sad.

Merope, who left, sent things home more frequently.

They were all gadgets that ordinary people gave to their children, but Merope sent them diligently, and little Tom later remembered such a woman who "tried to rob him of his uncle".

Little Tom is still growing up, and the most he says every day is "Uncle, Uncle." And as he gets older, Little Tom becomes more and more naughty.

In order for little Tom to have a more spacious living space, Wuxu took little Tom to a small town near London and bought a house, and then little Tom quickly became the king of children in the whole town.Including those who are obviously older than Little Tom, they all behaved submissively towards Little Tom.

Looking at those children who moved neatly and chanted slogans while walking, Wu Xu raised his eyebrows in a little surprise, looking at these children who were very "resolute" in spirit, and children of different heights.Suddenly, he thought of the tactics he had just told little Tom not long ago.

Wuxu seldom told little Tom some beautiful fairy tales, but little Tom often liked to play with Wuxu's arms, and then followed Wuxu to read those messy books in Wuxu's hands.

From the famous "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to the sonnets by not-so-famous poets, Wu Xu has read them all, and little Tom has read them along with them.

It’s been a while since I moved to this small town. Not long ago, little Tom, who was already able to read a lot of words, had to go through a lot of military tactics when he came to Wuxu, saying that he wanted to carry out effective measures for his “industry”. Management of rules and regulations.As a result, Wu Xu turned around and saw this scene.

Little Tom took those kids all the way from the head of the town to the end of the town, and turned around to ask Wu Xu for advice on how to train his own industry, and he is making these little guys tired to death If so, give a thoughtful reward—milk from Tom's beloved bottle... .

As the most beloved thing of little Tom, Wuxu gave little Tom a gift—the baby bottle, which is something that little Tom will take into heaven as his true love.

Once I heard little Tom seriously discussing with himself if he went to heaven in the future, what he would most like to take away and mentioned the feeding bottle, Wuxu really couldn't stop laughing.

And those little friends who followed Little Tom also liked Little Tom very much, because the milk powder given by the system brand was very delicious from the taste, which was a rarity in this era.

And then little Tom...

Wuxu watched Little Tom cheer up those little friends with an encouraging face, and described the glorious future—they will level England, sweep Europe and Asia, dominate the world, etc.—and then think back to starting now for such a future Prepare yourself, and at the same time, it also proposes a reward system for good performance partners and so on.

Coaxing these children who are older than him for a moment, turning around, this little guy always throws himself into Wuxu's arms with a painful expression on his face, screaming at his milk bottle and his milk powder...

Wu Xu actually didn't want to laugh, but he couldn't control it.
