Chapter 47 Long Baoer is drunk
"Really? That's great!" Xue Lei was overjoyed, "Then do you want to join the army?"
General Xue had been fighting outside in the past few years. Now he came back from the border and took direct charge of the infantry camp on the outskirts of Beijing.
Xue Qingsong's official rank is naturally much higher than this small position. He is a first-class general appointed by His Majesty. But it has to be said that the current emperor really trusts Xue Qingsong after entrusting the safety of the capital to him.
This is far more important than any official position.
So Xue Lei really hoped that his cousin would go to the army with him.
But Chang Xuan obviously has his own ideas, "I have to ask my father about this. And in the military, I can't look for this opportunity."
There are more controls in the army, so it is naturally inconvenient to come in and out. Even if he is a member of the Chang family and the son of Zhenyuan Bo, he cannot break this rule.
"That's the same reason." Xue Lei gave up easily, after all, this was related to his cousin's life. "Then my cousin wants to take the imperial examination?"
They come from a family of military commanders and usually follow the military route. If you want to be an official in the court, you have to take the imperial examination route.
Fortunately, they never discarded the Four Books and Five Classics even when they were on the mountain.
Their master is an expert outside the world, and they were all taught by Chang Maoming when they were young, so they all have a good foundation.
Xue Lei focused on military law, while Chang Xuan learned more.
Xue Lei believed that even if his cousin took part in the imperial examination, he would still be able to win the gold medal.
"No. The imperial examination is the only chance for a poor family to get ahead, so why should I fight with them." Chang Xuan smiled and shook his head.
"Besides, the Chang family's ancestral motto is not to show off. Why should I go out and show off?"
Chang Xuan is the eldest son of Zhenyuan Bo, and he will inherit this title in the future. There is really no need to be too pushy.
"Yes." Xue Lei nodded, and then became happy again, "Even if we don't go to the army, we are still close. There will be more opportunities to drink!"
"Yeah!" Chang Xuan also smiled and nodded.
Their cousins can all drink, mainly because their master can drink. After they go up the mountain, the most common thing they do is go down the mountain to buy wine for their master.
After studying in the mountains for so many years, their brothers' drinking capacity has also increased a lot.
"Cousin, have another drink!" Xue Lei said happily as he picked up the cup.
"Okay!" Chang Xuan was about to drink when he caught a glimpse of Xue Ba, the sixth son of the Xue family, secretly holding a wine bottle and pouring himself a glass, and quickly stopped drinking.
"Little bully, do you want to drink at such a young age?" Chang Xuan scolded with a smile, "Watch if I don't spank your butt."
Xue Ba was caught red-handed and put down the wine glass helplessly.
He saw his father, uncle, and brothers drinking, and wanted to have a taste.
Besides, it smells really good.
Xue Ba was about to make a few excuses when he suddenly saw Long Baoer opposite him finishing the fruit in his mouth, picking up the small cup in front of him and drinking it all in one gulp.
Xue Ba pointed towards the opposite side and was speechless for a moment.
When Chang Xuan and Xue Lei lowered their heads, they realized that Long Baoer had actually drank the wine as water.
"Ouch! You can't drink this!"
"Sister, be good, spit it out!"
Long Baoer turned his head to look at the two of them and opened his mouth obediently. But there is no drop of wine left in his mouth.
The two of them were frightened and panicked. Long Baoer said pitifully, "Brother, this water is so spicy..."
"This..." Xue Lei didn't dare to hide it. He quickly got up and ran to the flower hall. He lowered his head and told the story again.
"What?" Chang Chun was shocked and stood up quickly, knocking the table.
"What's wrong?" Old Madam and Ning asked quickly. When they found out that Long Bao'er had drunk a full glass of wine, they both stood up in shock and hurriedly walked towards the side.
Changjia's wine is very good, soft in the mouth, but the wine tastes strong after you drink it.
When General Xue took Long Bao'er over, the little girl's face was red, her eyes could not be opened, and she snuggled up against Xue Qingsong's neck and fell asleep.
"Hurry and ask for the imperial doctor!" Ning quickly ordered.
"You guys!" Chang Chun looked at his sons with frost on their faces. Even Chang Xuan, his nephew, couldn't help but shudder.
"Aunt, it's all my nephew's fault." Chang Xuan felt guilty, "It was because I didn't notice that Long Baoer drank wine by mistake."
"Nonsense!" Ning's face also turned cold, "Long Bao'er is so young, can't you brothers even look at her?"
Chang Xuan and the seven Xue brothers all lowered their heads in shame.
Why were they all distracted by Lao Liu at that time and didn't notice Long Baoer!
If something like this happens, it's natural that you won't be able to eat anymore.
Xue Qingsong carried Long Baoer back to Changchun's yard at home.
Although she has been married for so many years, the yard she had when she was unmarried is still there, and it is cleaned every day.
Long Baoer was carried over, and the whole family followed. Even the Cao family was no exception. She just ordered her maid to send Yingying back.
Yingying was still a little unhappy, after all, she hadn't eaten enough yet.
Mrs. Cao could only ask her small kitchen to prepare snacks for her, and then hurried to Changchun's yard.
She actually didn't like Long Baoer, so she came here because she had to go through this journey. She didn't want Chang Maoming to be unhappy with him just because of this matter when he came back.
This little girl has been loved by so many people since she came here, and she feels a little unfair for Yingying.
She had forgotten that when Yingying was first picked up by her, everyone in the Chang family was very kind to Yingying. It's just that in the past few years, Yingying has really been spoiled by Cao's arrogance.
The imperial doctor from the Imperial Hospital was quickly called in. After checking Long Baoer's pulse, he smiled and spoke.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Her pulse is very stable. The lady should be asleep now."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"The imperial doctor should prescribe some medicine." Chang Chun said uneasily.
"That's fine." The imperial doctor thought for a moment and then wrote a prescription.
Chang Maozhi took the prescription, sent the imperial doctor away, and sent people to get the medicine.
The second housekeeper soon caught the medicine, and the maid next to Ning was watching over the brewing of the medicine. It's just a warm and tonic prescription, you don't need to drink it for a long time, it only takes three servings.
This glass of wine was enough for Long Baoer to sleep until the sun turned to the west before he rubbed his eyes and woke up.
"Long Bao'er, are you awake?" Chang Chun, who had been guarding Long Bao'er next to her, said, while reaching out to touch her forehead.
"Ruyi, go get some hot water and look at the sweat on this end."
"Auntie." Long Baoer was not fully awake yet, and his voice was dazed and charming.
"Hey, my aunt is here." Chang Chun touched Long Baoer's little face, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"There's something in my head..." Long Baoer said aggrievedly, "It's dangling."
Chang Chun couldn't help laughing, "It's okay, it's okay, it's just because of the wine."
"Wine?" Long Baoer's eyes were wet because he had just woken up, but when he heard the word "wine", a trace of fear appeared on his face.
"Long Baoer, what's wrong?"
