The man with glasses shook the water drops on his head.
Although he just told Huan Xiao not to go to the town, in fact, it was just his subconscious and vigilant answer. He was already planning to go to the town in the afternoon to check out the situation.
The harvest on the mountain was only inconspicuous wild flowers. It was impossible for him to really give that kind of thing to Mrs. Honghua. Wild flowers did not match Mrs. Honghua.
Moreover, he still had doubts about Huan Xiao in his heart, thinking that Huan Xiao had hidden the flowers.
You shouldn't completely believe what others say. This is the default common sense among game players.
"Where are your glasses?" Huan Xiao's sudden voice interrupted the bespectacled man's thoughts.
"I don't know where it fell."
The man with glasses without glasses casually wiped away the blood that flowed into his eyes with his sleeve, but found that the more he wiped, the more blurred his vision became, and he almost missed his step.
Feeling that he was in an impetuous mood, he beat the wound on his head with his hands until it tore open, angrily numbing himself with pain, which made people feel pain just looking at it.
Huan Xiao asked kindly: "Can you still see the road clearly without glasses?"
"Wearing glasses means I am short-sighted, not blind. And I am not short-sighted. Glasses are just decoration..."
The bespectacled man's gaze rested on the umbrella in Huan Xiao's hand, and he suddenly ordered in a ferocious tone: "Hey, give me your umbrella, my forehead is injured!"
When Huan Xiao heard this, he stepped faster and walked down several steps without giving the man with glasses a chance to get close. "If you are afraid of wound infection, just pick a larger leaf yourself. Don't try to steal my umbrella!"
"Tsk...how could you be such a lucky guy...if you had eaten that dinner, you would definitely not be any better than me now."
The bespectacled man looked not in good condition, walking unsteadily as if there was a thousand kilograms of weight on his head.
Huan Xiao stood on the stone steps aside, watching the man with glasses obediently find the wide leaves.
The other party suppressed the idea of grabbing the umbrella. It is conceivable that he still has a trace of reason left.
If the man with glasses chooses to rob him by force, then given his current poor condition, Huan Xiao can easily knock him down even if he has no ghost energy.
After waiting for a while, the man with glasses came back holding a banana leaf.
It’s not easy for today’s men with glasses to break off such complete leaves...
Going down the mountain was easier than going up, and it only took an hour and a half.
But when Huanxiao and the man with glasses returned to the manor, they found that lunch time was about to pass.
In ten minutes, the butler and servants will take away the food from the table. If you want to eat again, you have to wait until dinner time.
"You didn't tell us before that we needed to be at the restaurant on time!"
The bespectacled man's forehead was bleeding, and his clothes were covered with wet spider webs, spiny ball weeds, etc., and he was in a mess.
Now, Huanxiao and he were in the small restaurant where they had breakfast this morning.
After being told that there was a time limit for mealtimes, the man with glasses was particularly angry. Veins popped up on his forehead and blood flowed even more happily.
But the housekeeper said innocently:
"Didn't the former butler tell you? Oh my god! He was so derelict in his duty that he forgot to tell you such important news."
Then, she smiled mockingly:
"Then what should we do? I'm just a new butler. Why don't you go find the previous butler and ask for an explanation? Maybe he will apologize to you."
The man with glasses became even more angry when he heard this.
Who doesn’t know that the former housekeeper has been eaten by the red flowers? If you go to the former housekeeper to ask for an explanation, doesn't that mean he is going to die on his own initiative?
He slammed the table and argued with the butler:
"Aren't you afraid that I will complain to the madam? The madam will be extremely disappointed with you. You are not worthy of being a housekeeper at all!"
"Hmph, it's not your turn to question Madam's decision. I won't extend the time for you just because you are late, so give up."
After the butler finished speaking, he looked at the time on his pocket watch and just waited for the time to come before taking back the food on the table.
The man with glasses was furious, annoyed by the butler's perfunctory attitude.
After a while, he realized that Huan Xiao was very quiet, so he turned around and found that Huan Xiao had already started eating.
"Xiaohuan, why don't you ask me to come with you when you eat!"
Huan Xiao raised his eyes, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said:
"Time is almost running out. I saw you were struggling with the butler, and I thought you weren't hungry yet."
After hearing this, the man with glasses was speechless for a moment.
He held his forehead and realized that his rationality was affected again.
So he simply sat down and started to devour, no longer fighting his stomach...
Seeing that the bespectacled man wisely did not argue with her, a look of pity flashed in the housekeeper's eyes.
If this outsider continues to bicker with her, maybe she can make this person hungry and teach him a lesson!
Then, she moved her gaze from the back of the bespectacled man's head to Huan Xiao and asked:
"Did you find any flowers on the mountain?"
But Huan Xiao continued to eat the food and did not answer the butler's questions.
Being so ignored, the housekeeper became more and more resentful. With patience, she took a deep breath and asked again:
"Guests, did you find any flowers on the mountain?"
After saying this, she was still greeted by silence, and still no one replied to her.
The bespectacled man stuffed food into his mouth and looked at the butler with amused eyes.
It's like saying: I must be punished for making things difficult for me just now!
At this time, the housekeeper couldn't hold himself any longer and walked directly to Huan Xiao, planning to speak again——
"Please don't talk to me during meal time."
Huan Xiao's cold voice made the housekeeper feel offended.
Before she could complain, Huan Xiao put down the tableware, stood up and said:
"I've finished eating. Please help me clean up. I'm going upstairs."
With that said, he passed the housekeeper and walked toward the stairs.
The housekeeper frowned and stared at Huan Xiao's back, gritting his teeth and cursing in his heart.
She picked up her pocket watch and found that the time had just ended, so she directed the servant to clear the table.
When the man with glasses saw this, he quickly picked up a piece of bread and ran away.
At this time, he should be grateful that the butler and servants are both human beings. If the servants are ghosts, then when the time is up, the uneaten food will be instantly replaced by poisonous rotten stench, and you will die if you eat it...
When he was about to go up the stairs, Huan Xiao found a person coming down the stairs.
It was the girl in the red dress. She had returned to the manor long ago and had changed her clothes.
"Lunch time is over." Huanxiao reminded her.
But the girl in the red dress said: "I know, I had already had lunch before you came back. I came here specifically to find you, Xiaohuan."
The man with glasses chewing bread ran from behind. When he saw the woman in the red dress, his expression changed and his eyes were cold.
The girl in the red dress saw him and greeted him with a smile, "I didn't expect you two to get together. Did you meet on the mountain? It's really fate."
Then, she said to Huan Xiao:
"You don't know how worried I was when I saw you rejecting them. Fortunately, you managed to leave!"
