My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

Shang Zhiping was extremely excited when he saw a "living creature" in the snow for the first time.

So he took out his bow and arrow and wanted to shoot at it. Unexpectedly, because his movement was too big, the rabbit ran away in fright.

Seeing the prey slipping away from his eyes, Shang Zhiping also looked anxious.

But I saw Shang Ji draw the arrow and shoot it out like a flowing stream, and quickly captured the rabbit as it ran away.

The speed of the movement made Shang Zhiping know for the first time what it means to pierce the Yang with a hundred steps.

"bingo!"

Xing Zhao shouted loudly, galvanized his horse and ran over.

He picked up the arrow and pulled it out. Seeing the hare being shot like this, Shang Zhiping felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

In the past, he only thought that his sixth uncle's ability was very good.

But no matter how powerful it is, it's just what people say. Only when you see it with your own eyes will you know how powerful it is and how quiet it is.

Everyone in the world has a strong mentality, and Shang Zhiping is no exception.

In his eyes, Shang Ji has never been taller than he is now, so the way he behaves makes Shang Ji feel happy in his eyes.

Then he explained patiently.

"Your arms are not strong enough and your movements are not fast enough, so the prey runs away before you can take action. If you want to be like me, you must practice speed."

Shang Zhiping also understands that his current ability is very weak, but people are eager to make progress, and he is not a stupid person.

So, I was a little shy, but still bold enough to ask.

"Then...can Uncle Six teach me?"

When he heard this, Xing Zhao grinned and walked over with his prey.

He said to Shang Zhiping with good intentions to "admonish" him.

"Practice with him, and I guarantee you'll be crying for your father and mother in less than three days. Your sixth uncle is famous for being tireless. I'm afraid your small body won't be able to withstand his three whips!"

Xing Zhao was telling the truth, and Shang Ji believed in the iron-blooded military training policy.

So everything else is easy to say, except that training is never sloppy.

If someone like Shang Zhiping, who has no foundation, asks him to train, he will fall down in a few days, and the training will be useless!

So, he volunteered.

"You'd better practice with my cousin. I have nothing to do anyway. I'll accept you as my apprentice or something to pass the time."

Shang Zhiping had only seen Uncle Zhao riding a horse, but never seen him shooting a bow.

Therefore, I still have a little doubt in my heart.

Who is Xing Zhao? His disbelief can be seen at a glance.

So he grinned and said.

"Wait, I'll let you see what Cousin Zhao is capable of later!"

That confident look made Shang Zhiping laugh, and even raised the corners of Shang Ji's lips.

Indeed, as Xing Zhao said, if he came to train Shang Zhiping, he would be dead in less than three to five days, and the relationship they had only repaired might become even weaker.

In terms of teaching children patience, Xing Zhao is much better than him.

And Xing Zhao may seem cynical, but he also has real abilities.

Shang Ji felt relieved when he came to teach.

So I thought about it and added something.

"Your cousin Zhao once won the first prize in the army in cavalry and archery!"

Shang Zhiping obviously didn't expect it, so he looked at Xing Zhao with slightly wide eyes.

And Xing Zhao's expression of "Come and praise me, I'll be waiting" made Shang Zhiping somewhat doubtful of the authenticity of this statement.

But soon, he gained real knowledge from practice.

That means Uncle Zhao’s riding and shooting skills are really great!

I don’t know if Xing Zhaocun wanted to show off his skills in front of Shang Zhiping, so he was basically the one taking action in the following winter hunting.

It seems careless, but in fact it is always on target.

When he directly hunted down a wild deer, Shang Zhiping's inner admiration for him burst out, and he quickly shouted to Xing Zhao.

"Cousin! Teach me!"

When he is with Xing Zhao, he always relaxes a lot, so he doesn't hold back when talking and is very straightforward.

"Teaching you? Then it depends on the sincerity of your apprentice? For example, the master's legs are very sore at the moment. How about you go down and carry the deer over?"

"good!"

Hearing this, Shang Zhiping didn't refuse and went down in a hurry.

The hares and pheasants that were hunted before were all hung on Xing Zhao's horse, so Shang Zhiping was more excited than anything else.

But now when he faced the prey that was shot for the first time and saw the blood flowing from its neck, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

His legs took two steps back, his movements in his hands became less agile, and even the expression on his face changed from excitement to a bit unpredictable.

Shang Zhiping was fundamentally different from those of them who fought bloody battles on the battlefield.

So in his eyes, this wild deer also had an innocent life.

Shang Ji knew what he was thinking at this moment, so he got off his horse and walked to Shang Zhiping, and quickly stabbed the wild deer again.

Seeing the wild deer dying in front of him, Shang Zhiping felt indescribably uncomfortable.

But Shang Ji said coldly.

"The weak eat the strong. This is an eternal truth. If you don't want to be a wild deer that is slaughtered, you can only grow into a person who slaughters wild deer. Do you understand?"

Shang Zhiping understood what he said.

But whether you understand it or not, whether you can accept it or not is another matter.

Although Xing Zhao felt sorry for Shang Zhiping, he also believed that what Shang Ji said was reasonable. For people like theirs, sometimes the battlefield was not open, but secret arrows.

Shang Zhiping will one day have to stand on his own to face these storms. He cannot be the head of a family if he is too soft-hearted.

Therefore, even if he knew that Shang Zhiping was timid and withdrawn, he would not comfort him at this time and ruin Shang Ji's opportunity to educate him.

Shang Zhiping didn't know how to answer when he saw that the knife his sixth uncle decisively killed the wild deer was still dripping with blood.

After a while, he whispered something.

"knew."

His mood suddenly turned from high to low, and Shang Ji frowned a little.

I don’t know how long it will take to correct such a weak mind.

He sighed a few times in his heart, but his face remained calm.

After this incident, the atmosphere was slightly silent.

Even Xing Zhao, who has always been active in the atmosphere, felt a little embarrassed at the moment, but fortunately, the appearance of Luo Yuan and others soon broke the deadlock.

His laugh was like a crackling firecracker, and he kept talking as soon as he appeared.

With a tone full of excitement and pride, he threw all the prey on the ground with a bang and said it in a show off manner.

"I thought there were nothing good in this snow-capped mountain. Who would have thought that each of these prey is dumber than the last, and there are only so many of them that can be taken at will. General, just wait and see. I will roast them all later, and let them Have a good time, everyone.”
