A Blessed Daughter Chapter 41

  Chapter 41 I made you suffer for my father

  Wei Qingwan exerted all her strength for a long time, but the bow in her hand was only drawn by a small arc, and the arrow on the bow also fell to the ground because of her trembling hands.

Wei Yichen comforted Wei Qingwan while helping Wei Qingwan pick up the dropped arrow: "Don't worry Wanwan, archery is difficult, and father's bow is too hard, it's normal for you to be unable to draw it. Big Brother also shot arrows with you for the first time. almost the same."

   "I'll try again." Wei Qingwan opened his bow again.

   This time she used more strength, and then let out a soft cry, and at the same time the bow and arrow in her hand fell to the ground.

   "Wanwan, what's the matter?" Wei Yichen hurriedly checked Wei Qingwan's hand.

  Wei Mingting, who was teaching Wei Ruo, also walked up to Wei Qingwan after hearing the voice, checking on her situation, with deep concern in his eyes.

   "I'm fine. I'm useless. I didn't draw the bow, and I was scratched by the bowstring." Wei Qingwan blamed herself.

  Wei Yichen spread Wei Qingwan's hand, and saw a deep red mark on the finger she used to pull the bowstring. Although the skin was not broken, the redness was particularly eye-catching on Wei Qingwan's fair and delicate skin.

  Wei Mingting frowned, and then said to Wei Yichen: "Yichen, go get some medicine to apply to Wanwan."

   "Okay, I'll go right away." Wei Yichen hurriedly went back to find the externally applied wound medicine.

  Yun Shi and Wei Yilin also rushed over.

  Seeing that Wei Qingwan was injured, the two were very concerned and nervous.

   "Wanwan, show mother quickly, how did you do this? Stop practicing bows and arrows, your hands are not made for this." Yun said hurriedly.

   "Yes, sister, shall we play something else?" Wei Yilin seconded.

   "I'm sorry... I'm useless..." Wei Qingwan lowered her head in shame.

   "What are you talking about? It has nothing to do with whether you are useful or not. Riding and archery is not something women should do." Yun said.

   "Sister, don't be afraid, I will protect you after I practice riding and shooting!" Wei Yilin said, patting his chest.

  Wei Qingwan red-eyed: "Thank you, Yilin."

   Immediately afterwards, he said to Wei Mingting and Yun Shi: "I'm sorry father and mother, my daughter is fine, I'm worried about you, my daughter is not filial."

   "It's perfectly normal for parents to care about their children, so why not talk about filial piety." Yun said.

   Wei Mingting nodded, agreeing with his wife's remarks.

   "Okay, don't cry, go back to the carriage with your mother and have a rest first." Yun Shi pulled Wei Qingwan away.

  Wei Yilin followed behind, like a little bodyguard.

  After Wei Qingwan left, Wei Mingting turned around and walked back to Wei Ruo.

  Suddenly thought of something, looked down at Wei Ruo's right hand.

  He caught a glimpse of bright red marks on Wei Ruo's fingers holding the bowstring.

  And because Wei Ruo opened his bow far more times than Wei Qingwan, the number of red marks on his hand is more and more obvious than Wei Qingwan's.

   "Ruoer, stop practicing." Wei Mingting immediately called Wei Ruo to stop.

  After Wei Ruo put down his bow and arrow, Wei Mingting asked, "You already have many red seals on your hand, why didn't you tell your father?"

  Wei Ruo glanced at the red mark on his hand, and replied calmly: "It's not broken, so it won't happen."

  Red marks of this degree are not considered injuries at all to Wei Ruo.

  Wei Ruo's words made Wei Mingting frowned and looked solemn.

To him, this level of injury is really nothing, but girls are different. She was raised up pampered, so she is naturally inferior to him. He has always felt that a normal girl like Wanwan should Some look.

  Wei Mingting was silent for a while and then said: "Ruo'er, being a father has made you suffer."

  Wei Ruo raised his head and glanced at Wei Mingting, then quickly looked away and looked at the archery target in the distance.

  For a moment, Wei Ruo wanted to tell Wei Mingting that she didn't feel that life in the countryside was hard. There she had family and friends and had her own life.

  But she refrained from saying it, because these words were words that the Wei family didn't like to hear.

  In their view, it was her best choice for them to take her back and let her be the official lady, pampered and pampered.

  In order to change the subject, Wei Ruo took the initiative to ask Wei Mingting: "Do all bows need so much strength? There is no such thing as a relatively light crossbow that can be used with one hand."

   "Yes, using Nu does not require too much strength, and it won't hurt your hands. Do you want to try Nu?" Wei Mingting asked.

  Wei Ruo shook his head, "I won't try it anymore, I'm just a little curious why soldiers use bows more now than braids."

   "Because the speed of using the 驽 is slow, a skilled archer can shoot three arrows at the same time, while a 驽 hand can only shoot one arrow. When two armies are at war, the intensity of firepower is very important." Wei Mingting answered.

   "Is that so." Wei Ruoruo thought.

   Seeing that Wei Ruo was interested in bows and crossbows, in order to better explain to Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting asked his followers to fetch the nu.

  Wei Mingting handed the Nu to Wei Ruo: "Come on, Ruo'er, take a look. This Nu can be loaded with one arrow at a time. After shooting, it will take more time to load the second arrow."

  Wei Ruo took it, shot one at the target, and then loaded Nuo with the second arrow under the guidance of Wei Mingting. It was really slow.

For a novice like her, the time to load a crossbow is about the same as to shoot an arrow with a bow, but for someone like Wei Mingting who has experienced many battles, the speed of taking arrows and shooting arrows when using a bow is much faster than that of loading a bow. speed.

  Wei Ruo looked at the Nu in his hand thoughtfully.

   "What is Ruo'er thinking?" Wei Mingting was a little curious about his daughter's thoughts.

   "I was thinking, it would be great if this Nu can load many arrows at once." Wei Ruo said casually while playing with the Nu in his hand.

   "Ruoer's idea is very interesting." Wei Mingting said, then looked up at the sky: "It's getting late, let's go back home."

   Wei Mingting saw that it was getting late, so he ended today's trip and returned home with his wife and children.

  The way back was peaceful, and the group returned to Wei Mansion safely.

  After entering the door, before leaving Wei Ruo, Wei Mingting specifically told Wei Ruo: "Today is your first time riding a horse and archery, and you will inevitably feel unwell tomorrow. Rest early when you go back."

"good."

   Wei Ruo received a medicine bath package from Cuiping not long after returning to Tingsongyuan.

   It was Wei Mingting who told Yun, and then Yun ordered Cuiping to bring it.

  Because of the war, Wei Mingting kept some medicine at home all the year round, and this medicinal bath pack was for Wei Mingting to use on weekdays.

  Wei Ruo opened the medicinal bath bag, carefully identified it, and sniffed it. It was indeed a prescription for relaxing tendons and activating blood circulation.

  Although there are some flaws in the formula, it is useful.

  Originally, Wei Ruo planned to make a medicinal bath by himself, but since Wei Mingting had someone send it over, he didn't bother, and just used the package he sent.

  So at night, Wei Ruo took a hot medicinal bath to soothe and relax.

  Wei Ruoyou expected that he might have back pain when he woke up the next day, but he didn't know until the next day that it was not only the back pain problem, but also the painful place was a bit embarrassing!

   Wei Ruo: I'm sorry, I'm hasty, I should have prepared a medicinal bath for myself last night.
