Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All

Chapter 691: Chapter 463: Plenty of Gifts

Xiaomi burst into laughter: ”Of course it’s you, the second girl of the Zhang family. You know my brother has many manners and can’t just call you by your maiden name, right?”

Zhang Xiaocao shrugged her shoulders: ”The title feels a bit strange.”

She used to be directly called Xiaocao girl, but now being specifically called second girl, it feels like her social status has risen a few tiers.

But thinking about it, she suddenly understood and tugged on Xiaomi’s clothes, leaning closer to her ear.

”On your way here, you didn’t by any chance tell others that Uncle Jiang is now a marquis, did you?”

Otherwise, how could mother-in-law, brother-in-law, and sister-in-law rush home right after Xiaomi arrived?

Xiaomi nodded, of course, she had to watch over Xiaocao, even though Xiaocao seemed to be doing quite well.

Their exchange was brief, while others were glancing between Xiaomi, Wei Ziang, and Zhang Xiaocao.

Zhang Xiaocao came back to her senses and said with a smile: ”Mother, didn’t I already tell you, this is my good sister, and she used to be the third young lady of the Earl’s family, but now with Uncle Jiang’s promotion, she’s the third young lady of the Marquis’ family.”

Saying that, she then reacted and quickly introduced Wei Ziang.

”Right, this is my little brother, although I’m a bit older than him, but since I’m close to Xiaomi, I call him little brother too. He is now the third young master of the Marquis’ family.”

Xiaomi said that this was to give herself more face, so she certainly couldn’t waste Xiaomi’s goodwill.

Following the moment, she introduced both of them, her mother-in-law looking as if she was about to faint.

”Marquis, Marquis’ third young master?” ℴℴ𝘮

They didn’t know much about adopting sons or anything, just that it sounded very impressive, a big official! A very high-ranking official!

Wei Ziang smiled: ”No need to be so polite, we won’t be staying long this time, mainly came to see how the second girl is doing, now that we see her, my sister can be assured.”

”Oh, and, two big brothers, my sister brought some things for the second girl, I can’t handle all of them myself, could you lend a hand and help out a bit?”

The two burly men standing awkwardly by quickly nodded and came over to help.

Fine cotton cloths, several colors, some suitable for children, others for adults, Xiaomi even picked two bolts in Xiaocao’s favorite colors, which delighted her.

This cotton cloth is not cheap, just by looking one can tell.

Then there was a big lunch box, personally handed over by Wei Ziang to Xiaomi, who then handed it over to Xiaocao.

”We bought this from traders beyond the border; these are various nuts, raisins, and dried fruits, you should store them in a cool place and eat them slowly, they’re good for the child.”

”This layer is full of candies, but you should eat less of these, just a taste will do, you shouldn’t have too much sugar when pregnant. By the time we come back again, it should be colder, we’ll bring more. Right now it’s hot, these things can’t be kept for too long.”

The candies were just taken out from a storage space, outside they would have melted long ago.

Wei Ziang untied the ropes on the horse’s back and then Xiaocao’s two brothers helped carry everything and put them under the eaves.

”This bundle is beef jerky, cut into small strips so it doesn’t take up too much space. It’s really tasty, and since you get hungry easily while pregnant, you can chew on a couple of pieces to fill your stomach.”

”This is cotton, initially wanted to bring more, but it was inconvenient on horseback, though it’s enough to make a few cotton-padded clothes for the child.”

”The eggs and duck eggs in the basket are what Aunt Xiuyun asked me to bring you.”

”The box contains some hairpins and earrings I bought outside. If I had known you were getting married, I would have sent them earlier. They’re all very beautiful.”

”...”

Besides these, there are many chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, fish, and eels, all taken out from the storage space halfway here, specifically for Xiaocao to nourish her body with.

As each item was taken out, Xiaomi explained its purpose. Not only Xiaocao’s family but even Xiaocao herself was stunned.

She knew Xiaomi brought a lot, but this was too much, and each item wasn’t cheap.

The dried red dates were several kilos, usually people buy only a few ounces at a time, but Xiaomi brought her a kilo to eat slowly.

The beef jerky was over one hundred copper coins per kilo, even though she thought she made quite a bit of money, she was still reluctant to buy it.

As for those hairpins and earrings, it goes without saying, they were not only exquisitely crafted but almost all made of silver!

There were also two sets of small white pearl earrings that dazzled Xiaocao’s eyes!

Lastly, Wei Ziang brought over a small box.

Xiaomi took it and opened it along the way.

”This is for the little baby in your belly, a longevity lock to wish him a long life, and a fortune bracelet, hoping he grows up to be both blessed and wealthy.”

A set of gleaming silver longevity lock and bracelet.

These were the resources she had collected before; she had checked them and they were marked with the nine nine symbol, signifying purity, and all solid.

More dazzling than the gold and silver jewelry of this world because the polish was better.

Just by looking at it, it seemed particularly valuable.

Xiaocao was already dumbfounded, all the jewelry was placed in her arms, packaged in elegant wooden boxes, opened wide for all to see.

Zhang Xiaocao swallowed hard: ”Xiaomi, I always knew you were rich, really.”

But before, it was just a vague concept; even knowing Uncle Jiang had been granted a marquis title didn’t really affect her much.

But now, seeing all these gifts Xiaomi brought, she suddenly realized.

It turned out, Xiaomi was even wealthier than she thought.

Xiaomi was amused by her reaction, letting out a burst of laughter: ”Alright, alright, what’s all this talk about being rich or not? You’re my only good friend in Xiangmu Village, I wasn’t home when you got married, but now that I’m back, how could I come to see you empty-handed?”

”It’s also because it’s hot, normally I would have brought more things. Your little one is due this year, I might not be back in time, but don’t worry, as your aunt, I would never shortchange my nephew or niece!”

Xiaocao was just being sentimental, as close as she and Xiaomi were over the years, no matter how much Xiaomi gave her, she would accept it gratefully and remember Xiaomi’s kindness.

”I went back to my parents’ home a couple of months ago too, heard from your steward that you might be staying at the border for the next few years.”

Xiaocao touched her belly, seriously telling Xiaomi.

”It’s okay if you can’t come back, once my child is older, I’ll bring him to visit his aunt in person, we can’t have him receiving all these gifts from aunt not knowing what she looks like.”

”That would be great, then I’ll take you to play on the grasslands, I’m telling you, hunting there is such a thrill, you can even chase prey on horseback...”
