A Blessed Daughter

Chapter 40: father teaching horseback riding and archery

Chapter 40 Father teaches horseback riding and archery

After the Wei family wandered around the street, Wei Mingting led them to the school grounds.

The school yard is where the soldiers train. In the past, outsiders were not allowed to enter here, even the family members of the school captain's mansion.

But recently, the soldiers are sticking to the front line, and the usual training place has been changed to a place closer to the east gate, so the school grounds are now idle, with only a few guards guarding the gate.

Wei Mingting brought a few children here, and wanted to use this rare vacation time to teach them how to ride horses.

Among the children, except for the eldest son who can ride, he has not had time to teach them the rest.

Wei Mingting planned to let his two daughters try horseback riding, and it happened that he and his eldest son taught each other. Wei Mingting chose to teach Wei Ruo, and left the work of teaching Wei Qingwan to the eldest son.

As for the youngest son Wei Yilin, Yun Shi watched and practiced riding a pony cub.

Wei Yilin usually behaves like a monkey at home, but today when Wei Mingting is present, he is much better behaved and dare not have any petty temper.

Wei Mingting led his mount "sickle" to Wei Ruo, and asked Wei Ruo: "Ruoer, do you dare to try?"

Wei Ruo nodded, she hasn't ridden a horse yet after traveling for so long!

"Father, let me teach you, this is the stirrup, you need to put your feet here, this is the saddle, and this is the rein..." Wei Mingting carefully explained the precautions for riding a horse to Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo listened carefully, and when Wei Mingting finished speaking and asked her to try, Wei Ruo stepped on the stirrup without hesitation, turned over and sat on it.

The movements are neat and unrestrained, done in one go, without any hesitation or fear.

Wei Mingting was still thinking about whether to find a stool for his daughter, but Wei Ruo had already ridden it.

After realizing it, Wei Mingting smiled and said, "Ruoer, you are more decisive than your brother. I think that when Big Brother Ni first learned how to ride a horse, he still hesitated for a long time."

Beside him, Wei Yichen, who was in charge of teaching Wei Qingwan, heard his father bury him, and protested with a smile: "My lord father, why did you even tell your sister about this? Where do you want me to be as a brother?"

Wei Mingting replied: "You earn your face, not for your father to cover it up for you."

Wei Yichen hurriedly said: "Okay, my son is useless, not as good as my sister Ruo'er! We Ruo'er are heroines among women, and women do not give way to men!"

Listening to Wei Yichen's praiseworthy words, Wei Ruo, who was being praised, didn't feel anything, but Wei Qingwan, who was beside Wei Yichen, lowered her head in frustration.

When Wei Yichen turned his head, he saw Wei Qingwan with her head bowed and her expression sad.

"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" Wei Yichen asked hurriedly.

"It's okay... It's just that I'm a bit too stupid, not as good as my sister, who can quickly master the essentials of riding a horse..."

"Wanwan, don't think so, Wanwan has things that Wanwan is good at, has advantages of Wanwan, and there are many things that you are good at that Ruo'er is not good at. For example, Wanwan, the cakes you make are very delicious, and you The embroidery, calligraphy, and poems are all excellent, these are incomparable to Ruo'er, Wanwan doesn't have to be the best in everything, that would be too tiring." Wei Yichen comforted.

"Yes." Wei Qingwan agreed in a low voice.

"Okay, brother will continue to teach you." Wei Yichen continued to patiently explain the essentials of horse riding to Wei Qingwan.

Just as Wei Yichen spoke to Wei Qingwan, Wei Ruo started to run on a horse, running round and round around the grass in the school field.

Wei Ruo on the horseback smiled flamboyantly, without the timidity of riding a horse for the first time.

Seeing his daughter's wanton and unrestrained appearance, Wei Mingting sighed with some relief: "I didn't expect Ruo'er to be the person who resembles me the most. If she were a man, she might be able to fight with my father and son on the battlefield."

Mr. Yun also noticed the gratified expression on her husband's face when he looked at his daughter, and couldn't help being happy.

Ruoer is the daughter of their husband and wife after all, and she has the shadow of a husband in her body.

Thinking of this, Yun's look at Wei Ruo has softened a lot. Since the last incident, Yun's attitude towards Wei Ruo has been a lot colder, but today's encounter has made Yun's psychology a little bit Variety.

After riding a horse for a while, Wei Mingting brought a bow and arrow to Wei Ruo to try again.

"Archery is different from riding a horse. It will be more difficult. Just try it. If it doesn't work, don't force yourself." Wei Mingting said first.

Wei Mingting originally only planned to teach his two daughters how to ride a horse today, and did not intend to let them try archery. After all, archery is still too difficult for the girls.

But Wei Ruo's riding performance just now made Wei Mingting change his mind.

Wei Mingting gave Wei Ruo a demonstration, nocking, drawing, and shooting.

Wei Mingting seems to be a natural born warrior, a natural born soldier. As soon as he holds a bow and arrow in his hand, his whole aura changes. There is an indescribable majesty and courage, and his tense muscles seem to be able to burst out infinite power.

And the arrows he shot also confirmed this point. The arrow hit the bull's-eye.

Wei Mingting handed the bow into Wei Ruo's hand, and said, "Ruo'er also come and try."

"Okay." Wei Ruo took the bow, imitating Wei Mingting's action just now, took an arrow from the quiver, and put it on the bowstring.

Wei Ruo got started very quickly, and quickly mastered the essentials of archery, and was able to shoot the arrow successfully.

But the strength and accuracy are very limited:

In terms of strength, Wei Mingting can draw the bow into a "full moon", but Wei Ruo can only do "a gibbous moon";

As for the accuracy, not to mention the bullseye, it is good if you dont miss the target. After shooting ten arrows, only two landed on the target.

While watching Wei Mingting shoot an arrow, he thought it wasn't too difficult, but it wasn't until he got used to it that he realized that it's really not something that anyone can do.

Wei Ruo glanced at the bow and arrow in his hand with some annoyance, why is this broken arrow so unruly?

Wei Mingting looked at his daughter's little expression and smiled: "Ruoer, don't worry, take your time, it's your first day of trying today, it's already very good."

Wei Mingting is not trying to comfort Wei Ruo, he is really doing well, not to mention a girl, even a man, his first archery might not be as fast as Wei Ruo's.

Not far away, Wei Qingwan, who was still learning how to ride a horse with Wei Yichen, saw Wei Mingting's kind expression towards Wei Ruo.

After thinking for a while, Wei Qingwan said to Wei Yichen: "Brother, I also want to try archery."

"Okay, I'll take you there." Wei Yichen didn't know what Wei Qingwan was thinking, she said she wanted to go archery, so she took her there.

Today, Japan brings younger siblings to the school grounds to play. It doesnt matter whether you learn or not, as long as you have fun.

Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan came to Wei Mingting, and after explaining the situation to Wei Mingting, Wei Mingting asked his subordinates to bring another bow.

After Wei Qingwan took the bow, she imitated Wei Mingting's demonstration and prepared to draw the bow.

In the original book, the father died in battle not long after, so the later death of the original owner (Wei Ruo) has nothing to do with his father.

The heroine of the original book (Wei Qingwan) is set to be the kind of miserable, white, and pitiful type who needs the protection of the heroine.
