Today, the sun shines brightly and a gentle breeze blows; it is Grandpa Fang's auspicious birthday.
The entire Fang residence was brightly decorated and bustling with activity. Guests came in an endless stream to offer their birthday wishes, filling the mansion to capacity.
At this time, the Fang family's back garden was bustling with people, filled with laughter and chatter.
Amidst the commotion, the petite and delicate Xiao Tao, carrying a large cloth bag in both hands, walked lightly toward the crowd.
At that moment, Fang Zheng, who was standing not far from the entrance to the back garden, happened to see a servant leading the servants of the Yun family slowly walking towards him.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the person accompanying the servant in the mansion was none other than Xiao Tao, the maidservant of Miss Yun. He immediately beamed with joy and hurried forward to greet her.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Yun's maid? What brings you to our Fang residence today? Did you come specifically to deliver a gift to me?"
Fang Zheng joked with a big smile.
As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell on the bulging cloth bag in Xiao Tao's hand.
Oh dear!
Miss Yun is such a thoughtful person. Not only does she know her own birthday, but she also so considerately sends someone to deliver a gift to her door.
Just as he was immersed in his beautiful fantasy, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Xiao Tao's next words.
"Grandpa Fang, I'm so sorry, I'm here on my young lady's orders to bring a gift to your granddaughter," Xiao Tao said softly, glancing at Fang Zheng with a slightly apologetic look in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng's smile froze instantly, as if time had stood still.
After a long while, he came to his senses, opened his mouth wide in disbelief, and exclaimed, "Ah?"
It turns out he was just being delusional.
This gift wasn't even for him!
As the birthday celebrant of the day and the protagonist of this birthday banquet, Fang Zheng had never encountered such a situation before—someone actually came all the way to give gifts to other people in his household on his birthday!
At this moment, Fang Rangrang, who was playing with several children not far away, had ears that were as sensitive as if they were equipped with antennas, and picked up the sound coming from this side.
It came darting over like a nimble little rabbit and stopped instantly beside them.
Her wide, round eyes sparkled with curiosity as she eagerly asked:
"Sister Xiaotao, did Sister Zhizhi really send you to deliver this gift to me?"
Xiao Tao smiled and nodded in affirmation.
Fang Rangrang was extremely excited after receiving the reply.
She glanced at Fang Zheng beside her, a smug smile on her face, and said in a sweet voice, "Grandfather, look! I never expected to receive a gift from Sister Zhizhi at your birthday banquet."
"Looks like I'm benefiting from your good fortune!" she said, winking mischievously at Fang Zheng.
Seeing this, Fang Zheng deliberately put on a stern face, pretending to be angry: "Hmph!"
Looking at the three-foot-long cloth bag, its size was almost the same as Fang Rangrang's figure.
Such a huge gift was quite a challenge for young Fang Rangrang to lift on her own.
After a moment's thought, she decisively instructed her personal maid to take the cloth bag from Xiao Tao's hand.
Immediately afterwards, Fang Rangrang turned her gaze to Xiao Tao again and asked in an expectant tone, "Sister Xiao Tao, can I open this cloth bag now and see what treasure is inside?"
As she said this, a large crowd had gathered around her, craning their necks and staring intently at the mysterious cloth bag with great curiosity.
Everyone was quite surprised when they heard that the future Sixth Imperial Consort had sent someone to deliver a gift to the birthday celebrant's granddaughter.
After all, no one expected that this young, innocent child from the Fang family would actually become acquainted with Yun Zhizhi, who had recently become incredibly popular in the city.
Moreover, just by looking at their interaction at this moment, one can tell that the friendship between the two is anything but ordinary.
Standing to the side, Xiao Tao smiled slightly and replied softly, "Of course."
Even she herself was filled with curiosity and couldn't wait to see what kind of surprised and delighted expressions everyone would have when they saw this mysterious gift—a Peppa Pig doll.
After receiving Xiao Tao's permission, the maid carefully untied the rope binding the bag and slowly took out the treasure hidden inside.
In an instant, a chorus of exclamations arose from all around.
"Wow! What kind of novel thing is this? How can it be so cute!" someone couldn't help but shout.
“This thing does look somewhat similar to the wooden dolls we usually see, but it’s much prettier and more exquisite than wooden dolls!” another person chimed in.
"That's right, look at its round body, tiny ears, big, round eyes like gemstones, and huge nose. Its whole body is pink, and its overall appearance is just like some kind of small animal."
Others used their wildest imaginations to speculate.
Just then, Fang Rangrang couldn't help but step forward and hug Peppa Pig, exclaiming in delight, "It's so soft! It feels so comfortable to hug it!"
Looking at this cute and uniquely shaped rare creature, Fang Rangrang's bright eyes seemed to be under a spell, glued to it, unable to look away.
