Chapter 166 Li Lixue, Zhang Menglan adds makeup
As the wedding date approached, diplomatic envoys from various countries arrived in Lin'an, the capital, one after another, and Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu became even busier. However, Xu Yuexi's life did not change much.
Xu Yan told Xu Yuexi that the diplomatic corps from various countries were all dignitaries of their respective countries, and most of them were unmarried, so their purpose was self-evident. He asked her if she had any plans for marriage.
Xu Yuexi shook her head. Now that her three husbands hadn't married yet, she didn't want to waste energy picking other men.
For Xu Yan, the happiness of his beloved daughter is the most important thing. He supports any decision made by Xu Yuexi and lets her do what she wants without considering anything else.
But Xu Yuexi didn't want to come into contact with so many strange men, so she rejected all the messages requesting a meeting from other countries.
"Your Highness, the Saint Lady did not accept the invitation we handed over, saying that it is not appropriate to meet a man outside of her family before the wedding." Yu Fei, the attendant of the Crown Prince of Qingcheng Kingdom, said.
"Your Highness, this saint is too arrogant. She actually rejected our invitation. Our Qingcheng country is stronger than their Saint Jersey country. She doesn't take our country seriously." The attendant Li Liang said angrily.
"Has she accepted invitations from other countries?" asked Prince Bai Ze.
"Your Highness, I have already found out that the Saint did not accept any invitations from the delegation. There were monarchs from other countries who relied on their high status and went directly to the Saint's Fangfei Palace, but were also refused entry. The reason for the refusal was the same, that it was not appropriate to see a man outside the palace before the wedding."
Bai Ze's mouth curled up slightly. It was interesting that a woman refused to meet all the delegations. Didn't she know that all the visitors this time were unmarried nobles from other countries, and as long as she used a little trick, she could help their country take off?
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Li Liang asked.
"In that case, we don't have to force it. On the day of the wedding, we will naturally be able to meet this legendary saint." Bai Ze said with a smile.
"But Your Highness..."
"Don't worry, I can wait. I've waited for three years, what else can I wait for a few days?
Recently, you should ask more about the Saint, the more detailed the better."
He wanted to see what was so special about this saint? If the rumors were true, he would beg her to help at all costs.
A few days before the wedding, Li Lixue and Zhang Menglan agreed to go to the palace together to add makeup to Xu Yuexi.
"My two sisters, long time no see, how are you these days?"
"That's great. I sleep and eat, eat and sleep every day. Look, have I gained weight again?" Li Lixue said.
"Indeed. Second sister, you do need to take supplements when you are pregnant, but you must not do so blindly. If you take too much nutrition, the fetus will be too large, which will be detrimental to childbirth."
Xu Yuexi advised Li Lixue as she looked at him who had gained weight again.
Li Lixue is less than three months pregnant now, but her belly is already bulging. The weight she lost before pregnancy is probably coming back again.
"That's right. You will suffer the consequences when the time comes. You have to watch your mouth." Zhang Menglan said.
Since she became pregnant, she has suffered from severe morning sickness. In the past two months, she has lost some weight and is now thinner than before she became pregnant.
"Oh, I can't help it! And my husbands are staring at me every day, so I have to eat."
Li Lixue didn't have a strong reaction like Zhang Menglan. She didn't have morning sickness, but she was sleepy. She felt sleepy after eating, and slept when she felt sleepy. How could she not gain weight?
"Little sister, this is a little gift from me, please accept it. I'm sorry that I can't be here on your wedding day. I wish you and the prince 'live together till old age, and may you be as happy as peaches and plums in the sky'."
Zhang Menglan handed Xu Yuexi a wooden box.
"Little sister, this is my heartfelt wish. I also wish you a happy wedding, a long-lasting marriage, eternal love, and a son soon."
Li Lixue also handed Xu Yuexi a wooden box.
Xu Yuexi took the box and gently opened the lid.
Zhang Menglan gave me a pair of jade bracelets, which were as smooth as jade, pure white and flawless, and full of spiritual energy.
Li Lixue gave her an exquisite and gorgeous golden hairpin, which was exquisitely crafted, inlaid with brilliant gems, and sparkled with dazzling light.
Both gifts were very valuable and were obviously carefully selected by the other party. Xu Yuexi carefully put the gifts back into the box and sincerely thanked Zhang Menglan and Li Lixue.
"Thank you, thank you elder sister and second sister. I like the gifts you gave me very much."
Xu Yuexi was deeply touched. The two of them treated her so well.
You know, in this continent, women are precious, and pregnant women are even more precious. The two of them came to the palace to see her and add makeup to her when she was pregnant. This friendship is worth cherishing.
She was particularly understanding about their inability to attend her wedding.
They were pregnant, and they had to travel in a carriage on this continent, which was very dangerous. There would be many people on her wedding day, which would be bad for their safety. It would be safest not to come.
The three chatted about family matters for a while, and Li Lixue and Zhang Menglan left first because they were not feeling well.
Xu Yuexi looked at their departing backs, feeling filled with emotion.
