Chapter 506 Birthday Gift
Zheng Sisi was busy with her work and said without even looking up: "Okay, I'll make you a birthday cake that's even more beautiful than this, hehe."
Sheng Zhen was satisfied when he heard that there was something even prettier than this. He watched Zheng Sisi busying herself with a happy face.
In addition to the cake, the two also prepared other gifts and asked the maids to bring them on trays. Everything was ready and they were just waiting for their turn to celebrate the birthday.
"Sheng Zhen, look, it seems the emperor is here too!" Zheng Sisi excitedly lay by the door, her big eyes looking out curiously, like a cute little kitten.
"Hmm." Sheng Zhen took a look and thought to himself, "Father must be greedy again, right? I heard that today's dishes were arranged by Sisi herself. It seems that he came here specially to taste these delicacies."
At this time, at the banquet, it was the turn of Haoer, the great-grandson, to pay his respects to the emperor.
Haoer was wearing a red brocade dress, and he was white and plump, looking very cute. He was very independent, and he went forward to pay his respects with the gift he prepared for his great-grandmother, which made everyone laugh.
Although Hao'er was young, he still said a blessing in a baby voice, which made the two elders smile. Then, Hao'er handed the gift he prepared to his great grandmother, and Madam Zhou took it with a smile and put it on the table next to her.
Then it was the turn of Zheng Sisi's cousin, the married woman. She was wearing a blue brocade dress, looking dignified and generous. She walked forward with a smile, gave a standard greeting and birthday wishes to the two elders, and presented her carefully selected gift.
The two elders' faces were filled with happy smiles. Nanny Zhou took the gift with a smile again and placed it on the table beside them.
Seeing this, Zheng Sisi quickly called the people around her. Rose and Lily carefully lifted a table, their movements gentle and skillful.
The table was covered with a layer of bright red silk, on which was placed an exquisite three-layer birthday cake. This cake was not only exquisite in shape, but also exuded an alluring aroma, making people salivate. A red candle was inserted on the top, symbolizing good luck and good fortune.
Zheng Sisi stood in the waiting position, quietly watching her cousin present gifts to her grandmother. The two old people were all smiles, and Aunt Zhou always kept a friendly smile and placed each gift properly on the table next to them.
Master He sang: "Please invite my granddaughter Zheng Sisi to pay her respects to my grandmother, Madam Zheng, on her birthday!"
Before anyone showed up, clear and pleasant singing rang out in the venue:
Your old man celebrates his birthday today
Wear that red dress
Now you have many children and grandchildren
Come and celebrate your birthday with you
a lovely family
Get together happily
We send you blessings
May you live long and healthy.
Blessed as the long flowing water of the East Sea
Longevity Pine in Nanshan Mountain
Good luck and good health
Good luck and happiness
Blessed as the long flowing water of the East Sea
Longevity Pine in Nanshan Mountain
Children and grandchildren come to honor you
A happy gathering
Picking peaches to prolong life
Offering wine brings blessings
May you live a long life

The guests were shocked to hear such a novel birthday speech. Who is so talented that can write such a beautiful birthday speech? Then they saw Zheng Sisi singing and walking over. There was a maid carrying a table and a tray behind her. What was on the table? Why did it smell so good? The guests looked around with their noses twitching.
The guests who were nearby saw the exquisite cake and smelled the aroma: "What kind of food is this? It's so beautiful and smells so good!" They couldn't help but take a few more breaths.
Zheng Sisi brought people to the old Duke Zheng and his wife, and knelt down and kowtowed sincerely: "I wish grandpa good health and all the best! I wish grandma a happy birthday and a long life! Sisi presented grandma with a birthday cake and a portrait artifact."
After hearing this and seeing the exquisite food, Emperor Yongshun felt lucky that he had come, otherwise he would have missed out on such delicious food.
He stood up and came to the cake: "Sisi, is this the birthday cake? How do I eat it?"
Zheng Sisi bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, birthday cake is a kind of food that came from the West. It is also an imported product. It is mainly eaten by aristocrats in Western countries on their birthdays or at important banquets. Before eating birthday cake, everyone should sing a happy birthday song for the birthday person, and then the birthday person should make a wish in front of the cake. This wish is very magical and effective. After making the wish, please blow out the candles, and then cut the cake and share it with the guests!"
When everyone heard that they could share it with the guests, they urged Madam Zheng to make a wish and blow out the candles.
The old couple are still confused. They didn't expect that their granddaughter had prepared such a big surprise behind everyone's back. They were all smiling from ear to ear. When they heard the guests urging them to divide the cake, they helped their wife to the cake.
