Harry Potter Reborn
Chapter 367 The stubborn thoughts of house elves!
"When did you come? Winky." Hermione asked.
"After she was fired by Bartick Rauch, Minister Dumbledore asked her to come to Professor McGonagall, Miss Granger!" Dobby said cheerfully.
"Minister Dumbledore and Principal McGonagall are both really good people. I have been a house elf for so many years, and I have never seen a house elf who was driven away by his master because he did not do his job well so quickly.
Other wizards adopted him."
Dobby turns out to be a straight man.
After hearing Dobby's stabbing words, Winky cried harder than before. Snot dripped from her nose like a squashed tomato, dripping on her chest, and she didn't want to stop it.
live.
Even Harry's angry face had no effect.
Hermione asked: "Winky, after you came to Hogwarts, how do you feel compared with your last strict master?"
Winky shouted: "This place is not as good as Mr. Crouch's home at all, even if he lets Winky whip himself with an iron bar and burn his hands with an iron at every turn. But Mr. Crouch is a good wizard, Miss! Grams
Mr. Rauch did the right thing by firing the incompetent Winky!"
Hermione said: "Now in Hogwarts, no one will punish you anymore, and no one will force you to go to high places even though they know you are afraid of heights. Isn't that okay?"
Speaking of being afraid of heights, Twinkle shivered.
But she still said: "No, Mr. Crouch's house is where Sparkle is. I'm a bad elf, miss!"
Twinkle sobbed, tears rolling down her cheeks again: "Poor Mr. Crouch, what will he do without Twinkle? He needs me, he needs my help! I have taken care of Crouch since I was born.
The Rauch family. Before me, it was my mother, and before her, it was my grandmother. What would they say if they knew that Twinkle was expelled? Shame, this is a shame!"
She buried her face in her skirt again and cried loudly.
Hermione didn't know how to comfort Winky.
Several house elves hurried up, carrying a large silver tray with a teapot, two cups, a pot of fragrant milk and a large plate of freshly baked cookies.
"Thank you." Hermione nodded.
"You're welcome, miss." The house elves said with a vigorous bow.
Hermione picked up a biscuit and thought of a topic: "Dobby, I heard that you are paid to work here?"
Dobby said happily: "Yes, Dobby wants to be paid now! This is something that no other house elf has done."
Hermione said: "Well done, Dobby!" and looked at Winky.
The house elves in the kitchen were watching them and listening to their words with interest, but when they heard this, they looked at Dobby with contempt.
And Hermione's words surprised them even more.
The house elves who had just delivered the milk biscuits turned back and angrily took the silver tray away.
One elf even jumped up, grabbed the biscuit from Hermione's hand, and ran away.
Hermione: "..."
Dobby seemed particularly happy to receive Hermione's approval. He said: "Most wizards don't want a paid house elf, miss. Dobby likes to work, but he also wants to wear clothes and be paid. Dobby wants to
Be free."
The house elves at Hogwarts all looked away, as if Dobby had said something extremely rude and embarrassing. They quietly stayed away from the circle, avoiding Dobby, as if he had something with him.
A powerful infectious bacteria.
Winky stayed still because she only knew Dobby, but the volume of her wails obviously increased.
Dobby said happily: "After Winky comes here this year, I want to persuade her to ask for reward..."
Twinkle suddenly jumped forward from the stool and fell face down on the stone paved ground. She did a frustrated forward bend, her small fists kept hitting the floor, and she screamed in pain: "This is humiliation! Twinkle
The greatest humiliation I have ever experienced in my life!”
Hermione hurriedly knelt down next to her and tried to comfort her, but no matter what Hermione said, it had no effect. Dobby continued to tell his story, screaming loudly, covering up Winky's cries.
"When Dobby first came to Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore said that since Dobby wanted wages, he could pay Dobby! So, Dobby is a free elf, Miss Dobby.
Get a Galleons every week and one day off every month!”
"What!" Hermione said in surprise: "So few!"
Dobby said with fear on his face: "Professor Dumbledore originally wanted to give Dobby ten galleons a week and a weekend off, but so much wealth and leisure time is very terrible, so Dobby bargained with him to lower the price."
To a galleon. Miss, Dobby likes freedom, but he doesn’t want too much freedom, he prefers to work!”
Harry had mixed feelings: there were actually employees who took the initiative to ask for lower wages and work more hours. If a certain boss Ma who proposed the 996 blessing report had such employees, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams.
Not to mention that the other house elves are the best of the best. They don't even want any wages. Even if they are made to work until they die, they will be grateful.
Hermione asked: "So Winky, will you finally get paid?"
Winky stopped crying and sat up. Two huge brown eyes stared at Hermione fiercely, and her wet face suddenly became angry: "Winky is indeed an unqualified house elf who was kicked out, but Winky
It’s not so lowly as to ask for wages!”
"Winky hasn't fallen that far yet! Winky is ashamed of the freedom Dobby talks about!"
Hermione looked confused: "Ashamed? How can you be ashamed? It is Mr. Crouch who should be ashamed. He was so cruel to you."
After hearing this, Twinkle quickly put her hands on the two holes of her hat and flattened her ears: "I can't hear you, I can't hear you! You are not allowed to insult my master, miss!"
Dobby said quietly: "Winky hasn't adjusted yet, Miss Granger. She has forgotten that she and Mr. Crouch have been completely cut off. She can say whatever she wants now, but she can't."
Hermione found that it was really difficult for her to communicate with Winky anymore, so she had to ask some questions about Dobby.
Dobby talked cheerfully about his life as a free elf and how he planned to spend his wages.
Dobby patted his chest and said, "That's Galleons that are completely under Dobby's control. Dobby is going to buy a jumper for Christmas this year."
…
When Harry and Hermione left, the elves came to see them off.
Hermione looked at the elves who kept groveling, with a look of pain on her face. It was impossible for her, a person trained in modern thinking, to accept slavery.
Hermione led the way up the marble stairs and said: "I thought I could help them understand freedom, but it seems that my thoughts were too wonderful. Their willingness to be enslaved has been passed down from countless generations. How can a Dobby be born?"
, it’s already a miracle.”
"I have an idea." Hermione looked at Harry and said, "Let Dobby do temporary work for the wizarding family. He will control his time and money. Maybe he can have a little influence on the house elves around him."
"Let's first target the wizarding family in Hogwarts as our target audience, and try to make progress in this matter before the Christmas holidays." Hermione sighed deeply.
These house elves with deep-rooted ideas really left her helpless.
