Chapter 44

Hearing what he said, all the nearby rooms erupted in commotion, clamoring for pancakes.

The guards at the gate took two away, and the remaining 48 were just one for each room.

After eating the cakes, they clamored for water again, so Shi Huaishan had to find a jug thrown under the rockery, washed it, fetched some well water, and poured it in through the broken windows of each room.

Those who have cups use the cups, and those who don't have cups or think the cups are dirty drink directly with their mouths.

After tossing back and forth more than twenty times, Huai Shan was sweating profusely when he was tired, and thought to himself: "It seems that the work of raising pigs can be crossed off the list of how to earn silver taels. It is really tiring."

"Why does this water have a strange smell?" Someone raised an objection.

Shi Huaishan said unhappily, "You can drink as soon as I give you a drink. How can there be so much nonsense!"

Having said that, he subconsciously glanced at the pot, and fell to the ground with a shake of his hand.

It was a chamber pot!

Shi Huaishan hurriedly left these rooms to find chairs for the guards.

I found an empty room nearby, which was the servant's room. The things in it were not appreciated by those who ransacked the house, so I survived.

There were exactly four chairs inside, Shi Huaishan dragged them out, took two for a distance, then went back to get the other two, and so on, and finally moved the chairs to the gate.

He knocked on the door and said, "My lord, the chair is here."

A guard opened the door, saw four dusty chairs, and said disgustedly: "I don't know how to find a better chair, this kind of chair is designated for the buttocks."

Haven’t all the good things been taken away by you?
Shi Huaishan could only apologize with a smile: "It's the villain's fault."

After arranging the chairs around the table, the four of them swept the chairs with their sleeves and sat down to eat and drink without hesitation.

Shi Huaishan remembered what he had heard, and tried to test it, and took the initiative to go up to them and pour wine for them.

After waiting for them to eat and drink, Shi Huaishan said with a troubled expression: "My lord, the people inside want something, look?"

"What do you want?" the guard picked his teeth and said nonchalantly, "If you dislike the place, don't open the door no matter what they say, do you hear me?"

"I know, I know." Shi Huaishan said, "They want it convenient, do you see?"

"Tsk." The guard was impatient, remembering that the people inside would be dedicated to His Majesty after all, so it's not good to let them be covered in feces and urine. If it gets pickled, Lord Chitose will definitely not be merciful.

"Give!"

Raising his hand, he threw a money bag to Shi Huaishan, "Take the money to buy 48 of the cheapest chamber pots, and then buy three working ones, an old man who is deaf, blind and speechless. If you dare to steal Grandpa's Money, hum."

"The villain doesn't dare." Shi Huaishan took the purse, knowing that the speculation was indeed the truth, his thoughts came alive.

Since these people are the faces to be sent to the palace, if I can get in among them, thanks to the empress, wouldn't it be one step closer to revenge?
At least it's easier than saving money by yourself outside. If you can't save three melons and two dates a year, when will you be able to afford someone to kill Yan Wenmao?
If you can stay by the empress's side, you are not afraid that you will not see Yan Wenmao, and you will fight to the death, and it will not be difficult to die with him.

Shi Huaishan clenched his money bag excitedly, went straight to the market, bought items and servants according to the requirements of the guards, and led the people back after a while.

A few guards were playing cards, so they ignored him and let him go in to work after checking that there was nothing wrong with the three old men.

Shi Huaishan handed over the work of distributing the chamber pots to them, and he took one, enduring his disgust, and walked to Li Huaishan's room.

The person he exchanged with himself in his heart was Li Huaishan.

First, Li Huaishan was very unwilling to face him face to face. If he had the chance, he would definitely want to escape, so he could agree to his request;

Second, Li Huaishan should be a scholar. At that time, Huaishan knew a lot about scholars, but he couldn't face it. After he escaped, he was guaranteed not to mention this matter, and he had no risk of being exposed;
Thirdly, the two have similar names, Shi Huaishan didn't believe in fate very much, but he had to guess whether this was God's instruction to let him go this way?
"Brother Li, are you inside?" Shi Huaishan asked softly.

Hearing the boy's voice, Li Huaishan was refreshed, but the depression in his lower abdomen made it difficult for him to walk normally, so he limped to the window:

"Are you the one who delivers meals to Xiaosheng?"

"Yes, my name is also Huaishan, and my surname is Wu, so I immediately remembered Brother Li."

Shi Huaishan handed the chamber pot in through the hole, and the already dilapidated window paper was even more torn.

Li Huaishan couldn't wait to take the chamber pot, and said coyly: "Brother Wu, can you leave for a while?"

Shi Huaishan was not interested in listening to him go to the toilet, so he hurried away, waited for a while, guessing that he should have solved it, and came back to the window.

Sure enough, Li Huaishan's expression became much more relaxed, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Wu, what do you want to say to Xiaosheng?"

Shi Huaishan thought about the fact that the wall has ears, and said, "Not really, I just thought it was a coincidence and wanted to come over to say hello. Brother Li will get rich in the future, don't forget the little one."

While making a gesture of writing, he made a "shh" gesture, pointing to the sun, indicating that he would come with a note at this time tomorrow.

Li Huaishan understood, nodded and said: "Since there is nothing wrong, Xiaosheng will go to rest."

Both of them were very excited. Li Huaishan saw the hope of escaping from the mansion, and Shi Huaishan saw the hope of implementing the plan.

Shi Huaishan walked out of the gate of the Shi Mansion, and was about to ask if he would send meat pies tomorrow, when one of the guards said: "The shopkeeper will continue to deliver meat pies here tomorrow, and the money will be recorded in the account first, so you won't lose money." of."

Someone added: "One is not enough to eat, give us three brothers each."

"Yes, little one remembers."

A little money is nothing compared to the chance of revenge, Shi Huaishan suppressed the excitement in his heart, and left Shi Mansion empty-handed.

The next day, he got up early in the morning, and he didn't even bother to open the shop, so he started making meatloaf directly. He made a total of [-] pieces. After finally making it to noon, he couldn't wait to go to Shifu with the meatloaf.

The guards set up a stove today, roasting sweet potatoes, and the aroma is tangy.

Seeing that Shi Huaishan came, he took the meat pies he specially packed, opened the door of Shi Mansion, and let him in to deliver the food.

This time, Shi Huaishan still gave Li Huaishan meatloaf first, and then distributed it to others.

Li Huaishan was hungry, but he was not in a hurry to eat the meatloaf. In the meatloaf bag, he found a note wrapped in oiled paper, and half of the hard charcoal that was burnt black.

Opening the note, I saw that it said "Brother Li wants to escape? I can help you."

Li Huaishan was ecstatic, but his mind was still clear, and he wrote on the back of the note:
"Why did Brother Wu help Xiaosheng? But do you need money in return?"

After eating the meatloaf in two or three bites, when Shi Huaishan came to ask him nonsense questions like whether the chamber pot was leaking or not, he quietly threw the note out of the window.
