They started skiing. Tong Tong did not follow Maria, but followed behind Murphy who was so upset that her nose was about to become crooked. She even wanted her mother to hold her hand!
It turned out that Tong Tong had made a fuss just now. Murphy had no choice but to sacrifice her entertainment time and stay behind to take care of Tong Tong. Luckily, Maria also stayed behind to accompany her, so the two of them were not too bored.
Leaving Tong Tong and Murphy aside, Yang Yi and David brought the two girls and ski equipment to the slope.
First, there was a demonstration. David was born and raised in a snowy country. Even if he had put on weight in his middle age, his skiing skills would not be too bad!
It was worth mentioning that Lu Weisha was only eight years old, which was one year older than Xi Xi. In China, she was still at an age where she needed to be protected by her parents and was doted on by her grandparents! However, Lu Weisha had also been skiing since elementary school and had fallen countless times!
Lu Weisha, who was wearing a light purple ski suit, was like a purple butterfly as she slowly slid down the slope.
Of course, Lu Weisha did not know any fancy tricks. She was more careful when she was standing up. Then, she gently made a small turn and slowly slid in front of Xi Xi.
"Wow … Lu Weisha, you're so good!" Xi Xi was wearing ski goggles. Perhaps she was not used to it. She raised her head slightly and looked at Lu Weisha enviously. "You know how to ski!"
Lu Weisha shook her head and said honestly, "I'm not good at skiing because I haven't learned to ski often. My brothers are better than me!"
Lu Weisha was not being modest. She had not learned to ski for a long time, so she could not compare to the children in her hometown.
…
Before Xi Xi started skiing, David and Yang Yi started talking to the girl.
David was more formal. He talked about the boring principles of skiing, mainly to let Xi Xi understand the reasons and precautions of skiing.
For example, when skiing, one should use the side blade of the skis to block the snow and exert force …
For example, when should the center of gravity be forward, when should it be back, and why?
For example, why did he have to use the internal brakes?
Perhaps it was because he was wearing ski goggles, David didn't see Xi Xi looking at him blankly.
What Yang Yi taught was much more practical. He taught Xi Xi some self-protection techniques!
"What if you fall like Lu Weisha?" Yang Yi gently asked as he held onto Xi Xi's shoulders.
"Fell?" Xi Xi looked at her father in surprise.
The little girl had never thought about the possibility of falling while skiing, and her father's explanation made the little girl unprepared for the cruel reality!
"Even skiing can cause you to fall! Just like when you first learned to swim, you would choke on water. " Yang Yi smiled and said to his daughter, "It's normal to fall. Everyone learns to ski by falling. You can ask Lu Weisha if she fell when she learned to ski."
Lu Weisha was at the side. After hearing this, she said honestly, "Yes, I fell down many times, and it was very painful. I even sprained my ankle, and I can't walk anymore."
Xi Xi opened her mouth and looked at Lu Weisha for a while, and then looked at her father for help. The little girl grabbed the ski pole and couldn't help but touch her little butt. She muttered, "But … but, PaPa, I'm afraid of pain …"
She fell so many times down the mountain, but she didn't cry out in pain. It was probably Lu Weisha's honest words that made Xi Xi nervous!
"It won't hurt, it won't hurt." Yang Yi smiled and comforted her, "Look, PaPa put on so many protective gear for you today, and there's one on your butt. Also, you have to learn from PaPa. If you fall, lean back and sit on the left side. That way, it won't hurt! "
Yang Yi taught Xi Xi some injury prevention techniques based on his skiing experience.
Coupled with his personal lying down demonstration, Xi Xi quickly understood. It turned out that when one was about to fall, they would encounter such a situation. If they pushed sideways, they would be less affected by the fall!
"PaPa will help you look after it, don't be afraid!" Yang Yi comforted her.
She also wanted to learn from Lu Weisha and ski elegantly and beautifully like her, and not be left behind by her friends. Xi Xi mustered her courage and stood up shakily with the ski pole in her hand.
Needless to say, at the beginning, Xi Xi was also dizzy from the fall.
If it weren't for the protective gear and Yang Yi's company, the little girl would have felt so wronged that she didn't want to play anymore!
"Xi Xi, you have to do this …" Lu Weisha suggested enthusiastically.
With her companions urging each other, the dizzy Xixi still got up again and again and headed down the snowy slope!
… …
Tong Tong and his mother were sitting at the rest pavilion watching their sisters ski.
When Tong Tong saw his sister fall, he didn't think much of it at first. He even waved his chubby little hands and wanted to cheer for his sister happily.
But he was soon shocked by his mother's constant worried shouts. Little Mommy looked at his mother in confusion, and only then did he realize that something was wrong.
"Aiya, why do you keep falling?"
"It's so dangerous!"
"Aiya, did you sprain your ankle?"
Mo Fei was worried sick. After all, Xixi was also a piece of flesh that fell from her body.
This was the first time that Tong Tong used this way of thinking. He tilted his head and looked at his mother for a while, then looked at his sister.
It must hurt a lot when you fall, right?
The little mosquito blinked its eyes in sympathy and secretly touched its own little butt. However, due to its thick clothes, the little mosquito was so clumsy that it couldn't even touch its own butt, so it could only pretend that it didn't care.
… …
Although Xi Xi kept falling, her posture became more and more accurate. Even when her father was holding her hand, she still managed to ski for some distance.
"She has a good sense of balance! This makes it easier for her to fall. " David brought Lu Weisha back and praised, "She's learning very fast. Give her a few days, and she might be better than Lu Weisha."
Lu Weisha didn't care. After hearing her father's honest evaluation, she couldn't wait to report to Xi Xi. She even said to Xi Xi expectantly, "Xi Xi, you can do it. Hurry up and learn. Then we can ski together!"
Although the snow was soft, Xi Xi was still a little dizzy from the fall. The little girl forced a smile at her friends and continued to ski with her father.
If Xi Xi was here to learn how to fall, she definitely wouldn't like skiing. However, the little girl still wanted to be "cool" like her friends. Therefore, with her father's encouragement, the little girl was full of energy!
Xi Xi was very focused when it came to learning. She was also very tenacious and talented in skiing!
However, skiing was not easy at all. Many people were still beginners after years of learning. How could the little girl learn how to ski in just a few hours?
