The old craftsmen of the Xishi woodworking industry often said that this boy Song Yan had a tough life - he was an orphan since he was a child, but he was born with hands that could carve gods into life; now he picked up a small oil bottle, and his life turned into honey.
But who knew that there was a "Child Raising Task Book" hidden in his honey pot:
"Ah Tang wears a skirt today, +3 points; helps Dad polish the wood, +5 points; uses children's words to persuade the troubled drunkard, +10 points - today's total score is 18, 82 points short of buying a new wood carving knife."
This is not nonsense, it is Song Yan's "game-based parenting guide": learning the rules is like entering a dungeon, gaining skills depends on accumulating points, and even a dispute in the shop next door can be turned into a "cooperative task".
And the little girl he picked up was even more clever:
I will squat in the wood pile and pick out the smoothest sandalwood.
He would hold up a small mallet and knock away the gangsters who were looking for trouble for him.
He would also hug the wooden tiger cub when he was insomnia and say: "Don't be afraid, Dad, Ah Tang will keep vigil for you."
Until one day, Ah Tang dug out a small wooden box wrapped in red cloth, with half a tiger charm lying inside - it turned out that she was not an ordinary war orphan, but the apple of the eye of the marching Sima of Longyou Road.
When the dark clouds of the old case enveloped Chang'an, Song Yan stood in front of the Zhixi Pavilion with a carving knife in his hand, and suddenly smiled: "I used to carve fairy tales for Ah Tang, but now it's my turn to conquer the world for Ah Tang."
This pair of unrelated father and daughter decided to carve out the strongest family bond in the fireworks of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
