Twenty-nine years later, Rose Weasley declares her love for Scorpius Malfoy. Molly orders Arthur to have nothing to do with the Malfoys, so Hermione, now widowed, finds herself acting as the head of her family. Naturally, she turns to a book for advice on courting rituals; however, it fails to warn her about jealous Malfoys, the usefulness of owlBay, hungry horses, wizards in cricket whites, interfering elves, perspicacious offspring, the lure of libraries or the life-long loyalty of Crups. She does discover a fondness for elf-made wine and the production thereof, even though 'Château Bonfoi Elf-made Wines' has absolutely nothing to do with Lucius and everything to do with a mysterious arbiter – who is perfectly capable of telling Lucius exactly where he can stick his wand.

A perfect ending, thankyou so much.
Severus in white! will wonders never cease, loved the last line.
I have just re-read your absolutely delightful story. I think you are portraying our heroes - now the elder generation - right on spot.Thank you!
The "strange old man in lilac robes" must be Dumbledore, n'est-ce pas? I can't think of anyone else who would throw sweets for a Crup to chase...

You may be right... thank you for reading and commenting!
I really need to check in more if I keep missing gems like this marvelous story! Love your characterizations of Hermione, Snape and Lucius. And Ramsbottom was utterly hilarious. I do hope you choose to keep him round for a future fic. He definitely ranks as one of my most favorite house-elves.
Response from gingertart (Author of Ye Gentlewizard's Guide to Courtshippe & Matrimonie)
Glad you enjoyed it! And I'm very fond of Ramsbottom, I confess. He may return in future...
What a wonerful story!! The last six sentences had me in tears!! Well done~dee

That were magic dear Ginge. And I also adored Ramsbottom. His attitude for a Northern elf was spot on. Elf-power indeed. That and the fact that I only live about 8 miles or so from Ramsbottom (aka Sheep's-arse) has really made this a jolly little but very well written romp in HP fanfic. Truly delightful and a great laugh. Well done. Best wishes, Love Ali xxxx.(PS...there is a brilliant chocolate cafe there too).
Response from gingertart (Author of Ye Gentlewizard's Guide to Courtshippe & Matrimonie)
Hee, thank you! A chocolate café, you say???This needs further investigation...
I'm delighted that you enjoyed it, and my attempt to find a suitable elf for Snape. I think Snape and Hermione would love him, not so sure about Lucius, though.

Aww... a wonderful end. And how good of Molly to show up at the wedding.This story has been an absolute treat! The warmth, the humour, the people, the feel-good-ness of it. Wonderful.I'm looking forward to your next story. :)
Response from gingertart (Author of Ye Gentlewizard's Guide to Courtshippe & Matrimonie)
Thank you for your lovely comments! I'm very glad that you enjoyed it. And I'm sure Molly would come round in the end, she wouldn't want to be unable to visit her great-grand-children, after all.

I really enjoyed this story and the way you manouvered the characters to their ultimate goal. I loved Ramsbottom's singular way of cutting right to the heart of the matter, as well as faithful old Biggles who, when he realised he could rest knowing Hermione was alright, did so. Lucius' flirting and outragious behaviour make him the perfect foil to Severus as both he and Hermione take a circuitous path towards 'mad passionate sex.' Loved it! :)

Great leaping crups, I'm an old hag who still adores happy and humorous endings. I won't forget Ramsbottom whirling off with the champagne tray balanced on one finger...or the 'dog's' demise...or all the wonderful, warm people who, well, 'people' your story. Vive la gingertart.

I am so sad to see this story come to an end I have so enjoyed yoiur wrighting. It was made me laugh out loud a number of times it also made me want to slap Lucius a number of times. I loved your Hermionie Severus and Lucius' their banter was fun to read. Bravo a job well done.

"Don't be silly, the poor old thing could just about gum Lucius' ankles if he stood still long enough. No, when Lucius saw him, he pretended to like him. Severus just asked if he needed potions for his arthritis."Hermione is a wise woman. And now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go dab at my eyes. I'm not sure whether it was the laughing or the crying that did me in... probably both. Either way, I'll anxiously await your next story. Thank you for posting--hm88

Thank YOU for commenting! Yes, practical help or advice wins out over empty flattery every time! Men like Lucius just don't understand that.
I'm glad that you liked it, even if I did make you cry...

THANK YOU for treating them like adults, keeping the Slytherins as Slytherins, invoking house-elf mischief, and sharing such a fun, mature story. :D This has been a pleasure to read.

The only thing that could possibly make reading your story more pleasurable would be a bottle of nicely chilled Grüner Veltliner to go along with it. Thank you!

This was such fun to read. Every chapter left a smile on my face. The ending feels a bit rushed, but I hope that it is because your mind is a buzz with new plots for more stories and maybe a few sequels to this one. Thanks for all of your wonderful work.

Thank YOU for your lovely review. Sorry about the slightly rushed ending but that's what deadlines tend to do to me... panic sets in! I'm glad you enjoyed it nevertheless.

Oh, this is going to be so much fun, until Lucius and Hermione face up with wands at dawn, perhaps. ;) I love the way you've painted Lucius all in one word, well two - 'Oh, goody.' Enough said really. I laughed when I read that, and this should be a really good battle of wits.I've got a sneaking suspicion Hermione may just get the better of Lucius in the end, but I won't know until I read on.
Response from gingertart (Author of Ye Gentlewizard's Guide to Courtshippe & Matrimonie)
Lucius won't know what hit him... especially if Hermione gets Severus on her side. I do like Lucius - a bastard, true, but capable of being redeemed, like Draco. I love writing Slytherins!
