Similar to Winterfrost, behind the Nicholas family palace in the Holy Light City was the back mountain, and the back garden.
However, the back mountain of Winterfrost was basically a desolate wilderness without an owner. It was a forest that stretched outside Winterfrost.
The back mountain of the Holy Light City was inside Winterfrost, and it was exclusive to the Nicholas family!
It was afternoon. On the grass at the top of the back mountain.
“Anthony, come here! Yes… yes! Come… haha!!”
Lily was sitting on the grass, clapping her hands to tease the toddler opposite her. She was smiling happily.
The toddler child was wearing his tiny shoes. He staggered and took small steps. His fair and tender little hands stretched out in front of him. “Yiyayi.” He smiled very adorably.
Currently, Anthony had been born for more than a year. He was physically very strong and had learned to walk albeit unsteadily.
Seeing that the weather was good and there was wind and sun, Lily muttered that she wanted to come out and fly a kite. Not only did she gather her regular friends, she also brought Anthony and Formick, the two little children. Donna, as well as Hava and the other maids also followed.
Even Dick, who was free, had been pulled over by the little girl.
At this moment, Lily was teasing Anthony, and Donna was smiling at the endearing scene in front of her. Beside her was a spirit beast egg in a swaddling.
Hava was holding Formick and looking up at the kite flying high in the sky.
The long thin string of the kite was held in Dick’s hand, and a few smiling children were running on the grass beside him. Devon and Dick Junior were among them.
Dick tugged on the thin string of the kite and asked helplessly, “Lily, are you going to fly the kite or not? Shall I put it away first?”
Lily hugged the toddler, who was swaying as he moved in front of her. The two of them laughed. When she heard Dick’s voice, she quickly looked over and said, “Yes!”
“Anthony, let’s go! Let’s fly a kite together!” Lily smiled and said a few words to the toddler in her arms before carrying him toward Dick.
“Brother Dick! Come, carry him!” When she reached the front of him, she gestured forward and handed the toddler in her arms solemnly to Dick.
After taking the kite, Lily turned around and smiled at Anthony. “Anthony, let little aunt show you how to fly a kite!”
But within a few seconds, she started to ask for help again.
“Ah! The kite… the kite has fallen!! Brother Dick, come and save me!”
Dick had no choice but to help her stabilize the kite. The toddler in his arms laughed and even used his soft little hands to touch the person hugging him.
“Dick!” A loud shout came from afar. It was a young lady who was as reckless as the wind!
The person who had run over from the foot of the mountain was the Ninth Princess, Norlis.
When she was almost in front of Dick, she seemed to have remembered something. She suddenly stopped in her tracks and smiled. She walked over steadily with small steps.
Lily was even happier to see someone she knew. “Sister Norlis!”
Dick nodded gently. “Good day, Your Highness.”
“Lily is such a good girl!” Norlis brushed Lily’s hair twice and then turned to look at Dick.
“Haven’t I told you that you could just call me Norlis?” She had a special blush on her face. “Or you can just call me Nor!”
Ever since she returned from the mystic realm of the Red Rose Sea, Norlis had often visited the Nicholas family. As she had come too many times, she was already very close to the Nicholas family, including Lily.
The young lady did not hide her thoughts at all. Basically, everyone had seen through her, but Dick was still not enlightened at all. This made Norlis so angry that she was often troubled.
Donna and the others were not surprised to see the Ninth Princess appear again. They smiled and greeted her.
“Formick is here too!” Norlis reached out to the maid, Hava, and said with a smile, “Let me hold him!”
Actually, she did not like children much, but this family’s little children were too obedient and cute!
After carrying Formick over, her eyes curved into crescents as she stretched out her hand to fondle the little kid’s cute face. She smiled and said, “Formick, ah, you seem to have gained weight!”
Formick would usually close his eyes and sleep, but when he was carried by Norlis, he woke up in a daze. His eyes were still not open, and he looked lazy.
However, as if he was being carried by someone he liked, the little kid seemed to be enjoying it. His small hands even reached out to grab Norlis’ fingers.
Formick’s constitution was a little incomplete. He had the Body of Ten-Thousand Poisons. When he had just returned to the Nicholas family, Xi Bolai had helped to seal the Body of Ten-Thousand Poisons. However, Xi Bolai had been constrained by his own level and could not seal it completely. It was not until Romo broke through to the Divine Realm that he personally sealed the Body of Ten-Thousand Poisons completely.
Now, the others could touch Formick at will without worrying about being poisoned.
However, Formick was affected by his constitution and was very sleepy. Moreover, his personality was restrained and he did not smile often.
However, this little kid and Norlis had hit it off very well. He was very happy every time they met.
Norlis also liked this little darling very much. Every time she came to the Nicholas family, she would spend a lot of time playing with Formick.
She stretched out her hand to tease the little kid in her arms and then spoke to Dick, who was also holding a child beside her.
“I’ve collected a lot of refining materials recently. Dick, can you help me refine the Phoenix Crown?”
“Mother is holding a birthday banquet soon. I plan to give the Phoenix Crown to her as a gift!”
“Sure, but I’m not very free these few days,” Dick nodded slightly.
Norlis paused and asked, “Why? Are you busy refining weapons?”
Dick shook his head and said seriously, “My brother is going to propose marriage in a few days. I have to go and take a look.”
“Propose marriage?” Norlis leaned over curiously, her eyes sparkling. “Who is it?”
“Let me guess. Is it… Ron?”
Dick nodded. “Yes.”
“I know about Ron’s marriage!” Norlis became excited and said, “I heard that he had an engagement with a Great Archmage from the Sky Blue Magic Academy, and that back then he had become enemies with the Sky Blue Magic Academy because of this!”
As if she was chasing gossip, the interest in her eyes was very strong. “Where is your family going to propose marriage? At the Sky Blue Magic Academy?”
“We are going to the Campbell family as well as the Sky Blue Magic Academy.”
“Yes, yes! You definitely have to go to the Sky Blue Magic Academy! The Nicholas family clan is different now!” Norlis nodded repeatedly, her eyes bright. “Can I follow and take a look?”
Dick looked at her in shock and asked, “Why do you want to follow us there?”
“Aiya, I’ve been bored recently.”
Norlis smiled at him. “I’ll just follow you guys to take a look! I’ll definitely watch quietly from the side!”
Dick was speechless.
… .
The preparations for Ron and Serena’s marriage were almost complete.
When the Nicholas family clan left Winterfrost, Norton had made some promises to his old friend, Colin Campbell, when they bade farewell. Of course, these were not jokes. From then on, he had already planned to do so.
After they had returned, it would be Ron’s marriage next.
Everyone in the Nicholas family, including Romo, was looking forward to Ron getting married and having children.
As for Ron himself, he naturally wanted to marry Serena as soon as possible so that she would not have to worry about her cultivation progress.
After intense discussions, coupled with the instructions from the Old Ancestor, this matter was settled.
They would set off in two days to propose marriage!
Moreover, they would get married immediately after the marriage proposal!
The elders of the Nicholas family clan had even calculated the auspicious date!
