Harry Potter: Charlie's Candy Factory

Chapter 199 The People on Christmas Morning
At the dawn of Christmas, the sky was snowing, and Ambrosio Froome opened his sleepy eyes from the bed with the familiar and joyful Christmas music.

"Uh………"

With a painful groan, he moved his sore shoulders and arms, and slowly supported his fat body from the bed.

This movement seemed to be extremely difficult, and as a result, just the process of peeling his upper body off the mattress had already made his expression extremely ferocious.

After about half a minute, he finally sat up, leaned against the wooden bedside table that had been used for many years, took a deep breath of the air warmed by the fireplace in the bedroom, and completely woke up...

"Kala kala..." After the bones loosened for a while, Ambrosio Frum supported his waist, got off the bed, and walked towards the window step by step.

He looked out of the window, at this time the sun had not yet fully risen, only a faint light was reflected, allowing him to vaguely see the scene outside the room.

The white snow that fell from nowhere in the night has covered the entire Hogsmeade village, just like every Christmas in the past, creating a pure and happy world.

Thick eyelids blinked and blinked through the window, as if thinking about something.The smile hanging from the corner of his mouth seemed to be telling others that Ambrosio Froome was in a very good mood at the moment.

In the kitchen, Mrs. Froome was cooking today's breakfast. After hearing the familiar sound from the bedroom, she put down the spatula in her hand.The frying pan flying under the flames suddenly came up quietly.

You walked to the door of the kitchen, wiped the oil stains from your hands, and shouted in a low voice

"Honey, is he awake?"

"Yes, good morning, dear. A slow Christmas..."

Bross's voice came from nearby and across several rooms.

"So is he. Merry Christmas."

While talking, I had already put on my clothes, walked out of the bedroom, and sat behind the dining table.

After a while, Mrs. Ambros brought the toast and jam behind my face.

"Why did he call you today?"

Under the dining table, the seven husband and wife chatted without saying a word while eating breakfast.Wei Sujiasi smeared thick jam on the burnt side of the toast, and before taking a bite, asked clearly

"You want you to rest less, after all, you just sorted out so few goods yesterday."

Mrs. Ambro said as usual, looking at the tiredness remaining under her husband's face, she felt a little distressed.

"It's true... I was very tired yesterday."

Bross smacked his lips and nodded sincerely.

You know, as one of the top candy stores in the wizarding world of England, the sales of Charlie's candies in Honeydukes have always been at the bottom.

Because of this, Borrows naturally wanted the least amount of goods before learning that the new candy was about to be released.

Less candy means fewer Galleons and guests.

But the only good thing is that it is extremely difficult to arrange all the seven or eight bags of candies and put them on the shelves... Even without the help of his wife, it is constantly moving and placing, In addition, Charlie's Candy Factory's display requirements for new candies also made me almost renovate the entire Honeydukes.

Up until the very beginning, it took a whole day to put everything together after Christmas.

Thinking of that, Bross groaned angrily twice, subconsciously supported his waist with his right hand, and took a sharp and small bite at the bitten piece of toast, as if holding it in his hand, it was Charlie. Blake's lovely and handsome face.

"Hmph... I hope that Charlie Black's new candy is really as delicious as the "Daily Prophet" said!"

When Mrs. Ambro heard this, she could only smile a little on the corner of her mouth, and shook her head helplessly.

My husband is very satisfied with Charlie Black's young "peer", and you have always known it.

After all, the reason why Honeydukes is famous in the whole British wizarding world is because of her husband's stubbornness and cold love for candies, he created many magical candies with solitary characteristics, and used them to satisfy the children's hearts.

But now, such a stubborn person who has no self-persistence is actually forced to compromise by a junior who is older than me with unbelievably delicious candies. Resentment and resentment in the heart are inevitable.

But Mrs. Ambros saw Gerry more openly than Browss.

Since our store chose to sell Charlie's candies, the business of the whole store has been much better than before.Even the sales of candies after that have dropped slightly, and the Galleons we can earn every day have almost doubled, making our lives more sensible.

Mrs. Ambro knew that Bross must have overlooked the changes that had taken place, and she must also know that this young man who came out of the store with a smile on his face at the time has given us a lot of benefits. earn.

Now I’m just sulking with myself, and I’m just willing to deny that this aristocratic son has far surpassed the little confectioner Bross Ann when it comes to the techniques and creations of sugar making. Bro a few streets out......

After the complicated breakfast, before all the toast and jam are wiped out, it officially means that the new day is over.

Bross washed his face to make his face look more refreshed, and then went to the store door and took the lower latch.

"Come on, a new day, Christmas..."

I murmured in self-esteem, and then with a slight effort in my arms, I pushed open the small door of Honeydukes, ready to welcome today's guests.

At this time, the sun just jumped out of the horizon, and the light drove away the white night, and also flashed Bross's eyes, which made me squint subconsciously.

However, in the last second, the originally squinted eyes suddenly opened again, and even the expression on the face became moved, full of indelible surprise.

I saw that above the sun, under the snow-covered land, a small crowd of people has gathered at some time. We are young or old, gender-neutral, and we are full of clothes. The same, but at this time, we came there for a common purpose.

"Violet sugar without smelling wind?"

Among the crowd, when they saw Wei Sujiasi opened the door of the store, they knew who was waiting impatiently, so they hurriedly asked.

My words seemed to speak out the voices of the people. The dark people spoke quietly and clearly, but the meaning beyond the eyes was very clear.

That look Browss has seen before—it's the way the kids look at me before I make "Beedukes' Best Chocolate."

For a while, Brossu was in a daze. Fortunately, the wife of Wei Su's family who was on the side reacted quickly, and hurriedly opened the small door of the shop again, and then nodded happily. said

"No! You still have a lot!!!"

Those words seemed to have triggered some strange mechanism, and immediately, the crowd cheered, and then they all flocked to the big candy store at one o'clock in the morning after Christmas.

And something like that happens one at a time, at the same place, behind every candy store door......
