Because of the newspaper, Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione were still in the hospital, but they were busy every day. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net

Especially Elwyn, he stayed up until late at night almost every day.
In such an atmosphere, the dawn of Christmas came quietly. The weather was cold, and the ground was covered with snow. Only Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione were left in the ward.
On Christmas morning, Elwyn was woken up by a pillow thrown by Harry.
"Merry Christmas!"
"Merry Christmas, Harry! Merry Christmas, Hermione! "
Elwyn got up with sleepy eyes and squinted at the foot of his bed in the half-light. There were already mountains of parcels there.
Harry and Hermione were already tearing the wrappers of their presents. Elwyn noticed that the three of them received a lot more presents this year than in previous years.
"Strange, why are there so many presents?" Elwyn murmured.
"Most of these presents are from the readers of Hogwarts Magic Newspaper. Many of them are just simple Christmas cards," explained Hermione.
Ever since the series of articles about Peter Pettigrew was published, Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione became famous. Although most of the attention was focused on Sirius Blake, the fact that three twelve or thirteen year old Magi were able to capture an evil dark Magus was rather surprising.
Many of their peers began to worship them and write them letters regularly. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↓ Say △ Net

Apart from the British wizards, Elwyn noticed that many of these Christmas cards were mailed from abroad. For example, the pink greeting card in his hand came from a ten-year-old girl named Gabrielle Delacour from France.
Gabrielle wished Elwyn a Merry Christmas on the card and expressed her admiration for Elwyn for catching Peter Pettigrew. She also hoped that Elwyn could reply to her letter.
Looking at the cute little angel at the end of the card, Elwyn smiled. Just as he was about to look at the other Christmas cards, he heard Harry's annoyed voice.
"Look at this, the Dursleys gave me an old sock. This is worse than the toothpick from last year and the fifty-pence coin from the year before. They must think I'm a house elf!" Harry threw the sock under the bed and opened the letter in the package.
It said that he should ask around to see if he could stay in Hogwarts for the summer.
"Thank God, I can finally get rid of them this summer. Sirius said that I can live with him. I wonder if he has a house?! " Harry cheered up again. He put on a scarlet sweater and continued, "This is a leather hoodie from Lady Weasley. You two seem to have one too."
"I saw it. Mine is maroon, but it doesn't have any letters on it." Hermione picked up a box and looked at it hesitantly for a while before gently putting it aside. "This is Hagrid's special minced meat pie. It smells very special. It smells like cabbage and pork liver mixed together. I think it's best not to try it."
Elwyn also began to open his gifts. Apart from the readers' Christmas cards, Lady Weasley's and Hagrid's gifts, his parents had ordered a set of gold crucibles for him.
He had seen this thing in the shop at Diagon Alley. The price was so high that it was shocking.
In Elwyn's opinion, this gold crucible was completely an art collection. No wizard would be so wasteful as to use it to brew magic potions.
Elwyn sighed and carefully put away the gold crucible.
His parents lacked understanding of the world of magic. They were used to looking at wizards from the perspective of Muggle and thought that the most expensive was the best.
Ever since Elwyn came to Hogwarts to study, they had bought him too many things that he could not use. The most typical was the flying broom Nimbus 2001 that they had given him last Christmas. Before Harry borrowed it, it had been placed under Elwyn's bed and had never been taken out.
When Elwyn brought it up when they returned home for the summer holidays, they found out that wizards did not always use brooms to fly in the air like in the stories.
And they seemed to remember that their son had a serious fear of heights, even magic could not cure it.
In addition to the gifts from his parents, Harry gave him a set of Quidditch toys. A huge glass ball was the Quidditch field. As long as he touched it with his wand, the models inside would automatically fly up for the game.
Ron gave him a book, Ginny a gorgeous quill, Corin a set of wizard card games, Luna a very valuable photo that could prove the existence of the bubble-nosed monster, Fred and George's gifts were their own prank props, and the other little wizards gave him all kinds of candy and food, most of which were ordered at Hogsmeade.
To Elwyn's surprise, Qiu Zhang also gave him a gift. It was a dark blue scarf with very fine workmanship. It should be a product of Madam Morkin's shop.
"Elwyn, thank you for the watch." Hermione looked up and saw the scarf in Elwyn's hand, and the lovely smile on her face gradually froze. She hesitated and said, "This scarf is..."
Hermione squinted her eyes, and Elwyn knew that she was thinking.
"It's a gift from Qiu," Elwyn explained.
"Well, I don't know what I thought my gift was..."
Elwyn looked strangely at Hermione, whose face suddenly turned red. He did not know what she was talking about. Following her gaze, he saw the last package under his bed.
This should be Hermione's gift, it was bulging.
Under Hermione's gaze, Elwyn tore open the package, and surprisingly, it was also a scarf.
The red and yellow scarf had a Gryffindor lion sewn on it, but it looked a little out of shape. The workmanship was much worse than the scarf Qiu had given him, and it was very likely that Hermione had sewn it herself.
Elwyn suddenly understood. No wonder Hermione had such an expression.
Her Christmas gift was exactly the same as Qiu's, it was a scarf.
Elwyn still remembered that Hermione had told him in Hogsmeade a few days ago that she had prepared a Christmas gift for him for a long time and believed that he would definitely be satisfied with it.
No one would have thought that her gift would actually be a scarf.
This scarf should have been made by Hermione herself. He did not know how long she had sewn it, but it must have been very difficult.
Before today, there was no news of this at all. No one had discovered that Hermione had secretly made a scarf. She must have returned to the dormitory every night after everyone had gone to sleep and secretly sewed it.
Touching the slightly rough scarf, Elwyn's heart was filled with gratitude.
In terms of value, this scarf was not very expensive. In terms of finesse, it was much worse than the one Qiu had given him, but every stitch and thread was filled with the girl's love.
Elwyn raised his head and looked at the blushing Hermione.
He knew that she must be very nervous now. She had spent so much time preparing a gift, but it was the same as someone else's. If it were him, he would definitely be very disappointed and let his imagination run wild.
"I didn't know, Elwyn!" Hermione said with a red face, "I didn't think that Qiu Zhang would also give you a scarf. I should have known …"
