Wei Ruo on the horse's back laughed naturally and freely. There was no timidity shown, even if she was riding a horse for the first time.
Watching his daughter's carefree 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 me like father and son on the battlefield.”
Yun Shi also noticed the pleased expression on her husband's face when he looked at his daughter, and couldn't help being happy.
After all, Ruo'er was the biological daughter of them, so there was her husband’s resemblance in her.
Thinking of this, Yun Shi felt a lot more ease towards Wei Ruo. Since the last incident, Yun Shi's attitude towards Wei Ruo had been a lot colder, but today, this experience had created some changes in her.
After riding for a while, Wei Mingting brought a bow and arrow to let Wei Ruo try.
"Archery is different from horse riding, it will be a bit more difficult. You can give it a try, but you don't have to force yourself if you can't." Wei Mingting said in advance.
Wei Mingting originally planned to teach his two daughters to ride horses today, and didn't intend to let them try archery. After all, archery was still too difficult for girls.
But Wei Ruo's horse riding performance just now made Wei Mingting change his mind.
Wei Mingting gave Wei Ruo a demonstration, setting up an arrow, opening the bow, and shooting the arrow.
Wei Mingting seemed to be a born warrior, a born soldier. As soon as he grabbed the bow and arrow, his entire aura changed, with an indescribable sense of dignity and courage. His tense muscles seemed to unleash infinite power.
And the arrow he shot also confirmed this. The arrow hit the bull's eye.
Wei Mingting handed the bow to Wei Ruo's hand and said: "Ruo’er, come and give it a try.”
“Okay.” Wei Ruo took the bow and followed Wei Mingting’s movement just now. She took an arrow from the quiver and placed it on the bow string.
But her strength and accuracy were very limited:
In terms of strength, Wei Mingting could pull the bow into a "full moon", but Wei Ruo can only achieve a "gibbous moon*"; As for accuracy, let alone the bull's-eye, it was good enough not to miss the target. Out of ten arrows fired, only two fell on the target.
Wei Ruo looked at the bow and arrow in her hand with some annoyance. Why was this lousy arrow so disobedient?
Wei Mingting looked at his daughter's expression and smiled: "Ruo'er, don't worry, take your time. It's only your first day of trying today, to be able to do something like this is already considered very good."
Wei Mingting wasn't trying to comfort Wei Ruo, she was really good. Let alone a girl, even a man, his first archery’s progress might not be as fast as Wei Ruo's.
Not far away, Wei Qingwan, who was still learning horse riding with Wei Yichen, saw Wei Mingting's kind expression towards Wei Ruo.
After thinking for a while, Wei Qingwan said to Wei Yichen: "Eldest brother, I also want to try archery."
"Sure, I'll take you there." Wei Yichen didn't know what Wei Qingwan was thinking. She said she wanted to try archery, so he took her there.
The reason behind today’s trip to the training ground was to play. So it doesn't matter if they can learn it well or not, as long as they had fun.
Wei Yichen and Wei Qingwan came to Wei Mingting and explained the situation to him. Wei Mingting then asked his subordinates to bring another bow over.
After receiving the bow, Wei Qingwan followed Wei Mingting's demonstration and prepared to draw it.
Author’s Notes:
In the original book, Wei Mingting died in battle shortly after, so the death of Wei Ruo has nothing to do with him.
The setting of Wei Qingwan is a tragic and pitiful character that needs the protection of the male lead.

When watching Wei Mingting shoot an arrow, she didn't think it was very difficult. It was only after she tried that she realized that it's not something that anyone can do.*gibbous moon: when the bow is pulled more than half-full.

The mum's conditional love is so unappealing. I'm tired of her appearance in the story

Yun Shi is a fickle woman. I don't want her sharing a screen with our MC anymore!
