Those are not necessarily contradictory.  If you remember, Ron was 
cross with his brothers for allowing Draco to get hold of Peruvian 
Darkness Powder at the end of HPB.  As an auror, he goes undercover to 
work in George's shop, eventually whipping off his disguise ("I'm not 
really your brother Ron Weasley, I'm Ron Weasley, Auror!") and 
arresting him when he has enough evidence.
