Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All

Today, Wei Ziang seemed a bit distracted. For the first time during Xiaomi’s birthday, he was not in high spirits, and even seemed a bit down.

Of course, because his disguise was good enough, apart from Jiang Yu who noticed initially, no one else realized it.

Moreover, Jiang Yu quickly discovered the reason why Wei Ziang was always distracted.

He wanted to ask about it, but soon the chef’s apprentice came over with the prepared lamb offal soup and roast lamb.

A large group of people was laughing and having fun, so he never found a chance to catch Wei Ziang alone.

Knowing that the guards, including Yingying’s, were still outside, Jiang Yu also sent out some roast meat and lamb soup at noon.

Today, they also opened a jar of fruit wine, allowing the ladies to enjoy a slightly tipsy feeling.

After several rounds of drinks, it was already two hours later. The chef left after finishing the roasting, leaving an apprentice to occasionally reheat the now cold lamb meat and other foods for them.

By the time Yingying left, she was almost unsteady on her feet.

After all, even fruit wine contains some alcohol.

After Yingying left, the few ladies, now drunk, went back to their rooms to rest, leaving a few men looking at each other in dismay. In the end, Jiang Hu took the lead in cleaning up the mess.

Of course, the other birthday boy, Jiang Wei, was sent off to rest and didn’t need to help.

After finishing tidying up, everyone went to rest. Although their tolerance was better, they had still drunk a fair amount.

The day’s excitement continued into dreaming, and when everyone woke up, it was already midnight.

Having eaten too much at noon, their stomachs were not hungry, but after sleeping off the alcohol, they awoke with dry mouths, unable to sleep, needing to get up to find water.

When Jiang Yu went, he happened to run into Wei Ziang.

On the stove was a pot of steaming hot water, with a small piece of charcoal burning underneath, and a pot of cool boiled water beside it.

Those eager to drink water could directly mix the hot and cold water for a perfect warm drink.

Wei Ziang was about to leave, but upon seeing Jiang Yu, he merely nodded. "Brother."

It was considered a greeting.

"Wait a moment." Jiang Yu stopped Wei Ziang. "I have something to ask you."

They were all very familiar with each other, so there was no need to beat around the bush; it was naturally better to speak directly.

"Go ahead, Brother."

Jiang Yu came straight to the point: "Do you recognize those two peace knots?"

Besides this, Jiang Yu couldn’t think of any other reason.

The first time he noticed Wei Ziang was distracted was when Wei Ziang was looking at Xiaomi’s chest. He almost got angry, thinking how could this person suddenly be so indecent.

But he quickly realized that Wei Ziang wasn’t looking elsewhere, but just slightly below the neck, where the peace knot should be.

What confirmed his suspicion was discovering that Wei Ziang was not only looking at Xiaomi’s chest but also at Xiaowei’s neck.

What else could it be, other than those peace knots?

So he asked.

Jiang Yu also had some speculation in his heart. When Wei Ziang was picked up by Xiaomi back then, he had amnesia. If he remembered that peace knot, wouldn’t it mean...

Jiang Yu quickly suppressed his further guesses, unwilling to think too badly of his younger brother.

Fortunately, Jiang Yu shook his head. "It can’t be considered recognition, just that when I saw it today, it looked somewhat familiar."

He then chuckled bitterly: "Brother, you know, I have amnesia. I never lied to anyone about that."

"I have absolutely no knowledge of things before my amnesia, but today seeing those two peace knots, I always felt like I’d seen them somewhere."

Unfortunately, he couldn’t recall, and it affected his mood today.

Jiang Yu frowned slightly: "Then why didn’t you say so earlier? We should have asked Miss Yingying. She’s the one who brought out those peace knots, knowing they were originally meant for twins. She must know their origin."

"Although I don’t know what kind of jade it is, it’s definitely not ordinary. Ordinary people couldn’t own it, probably couldn’t even see it."

"Since you have an impression, it must not have been seen once on the street. If you inquire carefully, perhaps you can find out about your identity."

When Xiaomi brought Wei Ziang back, she said she found him. He was well-fed but had no family, so it seemed possible that the servant abandoned him.

And because of his amnesia, he couldn’t clarify his situation, so Jiang Hu adopted him.

If he could find out his background, even if not to return to his ancestors, at least he would know his true identity.

This was Jiang Yu’s sincere thought.

However, Wei Ziang suddenly replied, "No way!"

His haste in responding raised his voice significantly.

The reaction was rather intense, startling Jiang Yu.

Wei Ziang himself noticed and moderated his expression: "Brother, I know you mean well, but no one must find out about this."

Jiang Yu frowned: "Are you really amnesiac?"

Wei Ziang nodded bitterly: "I’m sure I have amnesia. My earliest memory is in Fu’an Village, when I met Xiaomi."

Jiang Yu circled Wei Ziang in confusion, as if seeing him for the first time, scrutinizing him from head to toe.

"Then it’s strange. Your reaction suggests discovering your background might be dangerous. Can someone with amnesia have such a reaction?"

Wei Ziang corrected seriously and earnestly: "It’s not just me who might be in danger; all of us could be."

Jiang Yu immediately stood still and stared intently at Wei Ziang. "What do you mean?"

Wei Ziang chuckled bitterly: "Brother, believe me, I truly have amnesia. Before seeing those two peace knots, I had absolutely no memory of the past."

"And what I said just now is purely an intuition, one that even I don’t understand."

Finally, he hesitated before saying, "In any case, it’s best not to get involved."

If it were just himself, he would indeed want to investigate; even if it were just him and Xiaomi, he would have such thoughts.

But it wasn’t feasible. He had many other equally important people around him.

Unlike him and Xiaomi, having secrets to rely on, and even if encountering danger, confident of a safe escape.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Yu no longer suspected, turning instead to other matters.

"But you don’t need to worry too much. Miss Yingying saw you last year and today as well."

"Didn’t you go hunting together last year? There weren’t any other issues then, so obviously, Miss Yingying doesn’t recognize you."

"As for those peace knots, she probably acquired them elsewhere, so you don’t need to worry. Anyway, after the New Year, we’ll be leaving."

"By then, as long as the days are long and the sky is high, no one will know where you are."

Wei Ziang nodded, but judging by his expression, it seemed he was not reassured.
