The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

I didn't want to say anything more; at most, it was just two kids fooling around.

He just wanted to get things sorted out as quickly as possible so he could continue celebrating his daughter's birthday.

So he said, "That's enough, go back to your room, Harry."

"We're about to open Dolly's presents, so don't come too close to us."

Dolly chimed in, "That's right, you're just a guest, not family."

"Our family needs private space, you'd better stay by yourself."

Upon hearing this, Harry realized that he seemed to be bullied again.

He just stood up to tell the Vernons that his last name was Potter and that he wasn't a member of the Dursleys.

Now that he was truly being treated like an outsider, Harry felt a pang of pain and panic.

After all, even the Dursleys don't consider him family anymore, so where else can he go?

Living alone at the age of 11 is still too difficult for Harry at this point.

This is probably why Harry was so excited when he received his Hogwarts acceptance letter.

Because he finally transitioned from biological existence to experiencing personal existence for the first time.

Sure enough, Harry turned and left like a zombie.

But at this moment, Dolly said, "By the way, Dad, since Harry pays a thousand pounds in rent every month, isn't it inappropriate to let him live in the storeroom?"

“We should give him a room, otherwise he might regret it later and say we cheated him.”

Vernon was both amused and exasperated. He patted Dolly's head, wondering why his daughter was so fixated on making money today.

Is she short of pocket money?

So he whispered in his daughter's ear, "My sweetheart, is there anything you want to buy?"

"Then tell me, Harry has no money on him right now, and he can't have any money."

"No, Dad, I'm thinking about our future."

“My dream is to buy a bunch of houses and collect rent while lying down. Harry is my first client, so I can’t neglect him.”

Vernon was astonished; he never expected his daughter to have such a dream.

Wasn't her dream to be a boxer before?

Penny, having regained her composure, asked curiously, "Dolly, why did you suddenly think that?"

"Don't you want to be a boxer anymore?"

Dolly nodded and said, "Mom, I'll learn from you and become a slim and beautiful woman, so I won't be a boxer."

"A relaxed job like collecting rent suits me better, and then we can have plenty of time to travel the world together!"

Vernon and Penny exchanged a glance, both seeing relief in each other's eyes.

The fact that the daughter wants to make money but doesn't forget her parents shows that she hasn't become obsessed with money.

Although both of them thought Dolly's ideal of becoming a landlord and collecting rent was a bit absurd, she was still a child after all.

Maybe tomorrow's dream will be to play tennis and become a sports star.

"So, Dad, Harry is my first client!"

"Please let me handle all of this, Dad."

Seeing her daughter begging and pleading, and knowing it was her birthday today...

Vernon, who was being pestered by his daughter, sighed helplessly and thought for a moment before saying, "We'll... no, Harry, you clean out the storage room in the northwest corner of the first floor. That will be your room from now on."

"As for the place you live in now, it will be returned to its original purpose."

"Did you understand, Harry Potter?"

Harry smiled with delight upon hearing this.

I thought I was going to get a beating, but how did I end up with an extra room?

His own room!

Although he bought this room with his monthly income of one thousand pounds after graduation.

But what happens after graduation is something for me to think about after graduation.

Now, he has his own room!

Harry excitedly replied, "Yes, sir, I'll go right away!"

Then it vanished in a flash, and the Dursleys' dining table returned to normal.

As for why Harry didn't go to live on the second floor like in the original story, Dolly didn't ask any further questions.

The answer is clearly that Vernon didn't want Harry and Dolly to live on the same floor, since he now had a daughter, Dolly, instead of a son, Dudley.

Dolly breathed a sigh of relief after achieving her goal.

She wanted to show Harry her charm, though Dolly wasn't really counting on her looks.

But the word "charm" doesn't just refer to physical appearance.

It can also be understood as demeanor, wisdom, kindness, courage, talent, and so on.

Dolly's options are currently very limited; if she wants to do anything, she has to use her birthday buff and tears as a weapon to constantly maneuver around the situation.

She only hoped that what she did was useful and could be evaluated by the system as a completion of the task.

If this still doesn't work... then Dolly has done her best.

Even if he couldn't go to Hogwarts, he had the memories of the premonition, and his father Vernon still had some money.

This is enough for Dolly to invest in the future and eventually live the wonderful life of a wealthy woman who collects rent.

Even without discussing a certain major Eastern power, Dolly wouldn't miss out on which companies in the Muggle world would take off and what well-known opportunities for getting rich quick exist.

Dolly was eating breakfast while thinking about it, and she was dumbfounded by Vernon and Penny's nagging about her eating so little.

Because she actually finished half of the breakfast that she couldn't finish in a day in her previous life.

Dolly's stomach was still growling with hunger, making her want to continue eating heartily.

But she quickly pushed the food away, clutching her head with a face full of guilt.

She was trying to lose weight, how did she end up eating so much without realizing it!

As expected, Dolly's weight gain has ingrained many things into her instincts.

"Dolly, are you really not going to eat?"

"Yes, Mom, I want to lose weight!"

Dolly managed to say those words with difficulty, which finally made Penny give up on continuing to feed her.

At that moment, Harry, carrying a large pile of miscellaneous items, passed by the three people, panting heavily.

Seeing his thin appearance, Dolly said, "Harry, come and have breakfast."

“Wasting food is a bad thing, so these are yours.”

Because the meal was served in individual portions, Dolly's remaining food was placed on separate plates.

Harry, whose stomach had been growling for a while, couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw the sumptuous breakfast.

He wanted to say yes, but he glanced furtively at Vernon and Penny, afraid they might refuse.

Vernon instinctively wanted to say something, but ultimately nodded and said, "What are you standing there for? Don't waste food."

Vernon thought everything Dolly had just done was a joke.

But Dolly hasn't forgotten that she's the landlady, so he can only go along with her.

The thought that Harry was a tenant of the Dursleys softened Vernon's tone.

This small change was enough for Harry to smile.

This is probably what it feels like to be respected.

Even if that respect is only a tiny bit.

09 But this is my sister's letter.

A breakfast that seemed complicated but actually didn't take much time was over just like that.

Dolly, with her almost childlike and unreasonable nature, managed to get Harry his own room.

In the original book, that was a privilege Harry received only on his 11th birthday when he received his Hogwarts acceptance letter.

However, compared to the current time, it's only eight days earlier, since Dolly's birthday is only eight days earlier than Harry's.

This put Dolly in a difficult position: had she really shown any charm during this process?

After all, the word "charm" sounds somewhat vague and ethereal, and her approach wasn't particularly elegant or decisive.

Is it possible that Harry didn't grasp the key point at all and portrayed her as a villain in the Dursleys?

If it weren't for the reward, Dolly wouldn't care.

But right now, she really wants to go to Hogwarts.

Wait a minute, if you calculate it this way, doesn't she only have one week left?

Thinking of this, Dolly felt a sense of urgency.

She glanced at Harry, who was still eating, and thought she should increase the intensity a little.

She couldn't show too much of herself in front of her parents, but she didn't care in front of Harry.

Anyway, Harry is a rebellious person, and the more unconventional something is, the easier it is for Harry to accept it.

Harry was being a bit unconventional, and Dolly was watching him, and he was also thinking about how he had eaten Dolly's food, which made her unhappy again.

Just as they were about to eat a little and return the rest to Dolly, Dolly had already dragged her parents off to open their presents.

This made Harry a little nervous, after all, the gift he gave was really meager, just a greeting card.

He had no money, so he could only use the greeting cards he had found before to write a blessing by hand as a gift.
