Penny stood in the shadow of the doorway, listening to Lily's words. When she saw Lily was about to go back to the house, she quickly hid and didn't come out until Lily returned to the room.
How does the moon bless us?
Can He purify my heart that has been twisted by jealousy?
Penny knew she was jealous, but she couldn't change it.
She was just jealous of her sister, who was beautiful, smart, loved by everyone in her life, and had some magical talents, and she couldn't relieve it.
Who understands her pain?
She felt miserable as an older sister who was completely inferior to her younger sister, and the mocking and pitiful looks from others and the biased looks from her parents.
She lived in her own low self-esteem, like a frightened bird. When people looked at her, they thought they would ask, "Penny, where's your sister?"
I am also afraid that after I leave, they will sigh and say, "As the older sister, I am not as good as my younger sister in every aspect."
How can I hold back my slowly falling heart?
Penny walked up the stairs, her heart slowly sinking.
While they were struggling, Snape finally finished his gift and used magic to send it to Peacock.
The peacock heard the sound of a bird flapping its wings, so she poked her head out of the tree hole and saw a beautiful paper green peacock in front of her.
It spread its colorful wings and slowly flew towards her, then stopped in front of her and folded its wings, and its long tail feathers fell to the ground.
Peacock watched as it held a cloth bag in its mouth and opened it. Inside were two crystal medicine bottles filled with unknown liquid and a letter.
The letter read: Mix the two potions together and shake gently.
"Why should I listen to you!" Peacock said indignantly, but he still opened the potion and poured it into a potion bottle and shook it gently.
The blue and green liquid turned black. Peacock was just wondering when a silver dot of light appeared in the liquid. The dot began to stretch into a line, then a golden dot of light appeared. The silver dot's process repeated itself. After that, more golden and silver dots began to appear in the bottle and stretched into silk threads, slowly circling within the bottle. Finally, a fluorescent blue precipitate formed, slowly moving along with the liquid on the golden and silver road to heaven...
It’s as if the Milky Way is put into this bottle.
"So beautiful." Peacock exclaimed blankly.
"You shook out a universe." Snape came out from behind the tree, "and you shook out a new world for me."
“I’m sorry, Peacock, I said some nonsense before, which caused a misunderstanding between us.
I like potions and I am eager to innovate my own potion. This is a process of gradual accumulation and countless attempts.
I will inevitably get hurt, and I have to get hurt.
Remember the pain, remember the lesson, and create a perfect potion that will not harm the person who takes it.
I have the belief that I should practice the truth of potions with my life.
Likewise, I will try my best to avoid getting injured, and if I do get injured, I will keep the injury within a healable range.
Please don't worry or be afraid. This is the pain I must go through on my way to becoming a Potions Master, but it will allow me to climb to a higher level.
I'm sorry that my thoughtless words hurt you when you were so worried about me.
I don’t know what words to use to describe my feelings anymore. My language is always so poor. I want to know—
Can you forgive me?"
Peacock looked at the starry sky in the bottle, then looked at Snape with a sincere expression, and threw himself into his arms: "There won't be a next time. I won't forgive you every time!"
"I'll keep that in mind," Snape said gravely.
Because of the contract, he could feel some strong emotions belonging to Peacock. She was really hurt and wanted to leave.
"I have lived for a thousand years, and I have only been wronged by you." Peacock really wanted to leave. Her pride would not allow anyone to step on her concern and get close to her.
Even if she turned into a lifeless doll, she would never allow herself to degenerate into such a lowly existence.
"Shall we go home together?" Snape held out his hand.
"What else could you do? You actually came out wearing a lab coat! Don't you know the principle of sterility... Forget it, with all the blood and mucus you have, there's no such thing as sterility..." Peacock complained, then sat on Snape's shoulder and walked back together.
Because he had just coaxed Peacock, Snape did not express his doubts and ridicule about whether the black stand-up collar jacket and black trousers made of slightly stiff material were lab coats or the light green apron with ruffles on the outside was the lab coat.
It turns out that sometimes you still need to learn to shut up.
The two of them went home together, and Peacock asked, "How long will this potion last?"
"Seventy or eighty years." About the same as the lifespan of an ordinary person.
"It's so short." Peacock regretted.
Snape paused. "Hmm, that's pretty short."
"But its transience is also part of its beauty." Peacock flew up and shook the bottle with magic, watching the galaxy inside flow faster with her shaking.
Snape said nothing, but just looked at the peacock quietly, once again marveling at the unique talents of fairies.
Endless life, magic that can be used at will, beautiful appearance and a kind heart.
"Does Peacock care about the human world?" Snape had only a vague idea of why Peacock ended up in the human world.
Peacock only explained the general reasons, talked about Mandola and Xin Ling's decisions, and that she supported Xin Ling, but she didn't know why she chose to support Xin Ling and help the human world.
