One day, the father took his son to a small tree. The father wants to see how tall his son can grow next year, so he wants to measure his son's height with a small tree. Father brought a nail and a hammer. He let his son stand up straight with his back against the tree, then put the nail in his mouth and bit it with his teeth. Then he used a hammer as a ruler, marked the trunk along the direction of his son's head, and then asked his son to stand aside. Finally, he fixed the nail in the marked place with a hammer.
Winter has arrived, and only the snowman is still carrying the nails that Xiao Shu's father put on the tree. Another spring came, the father and son came to the small tree again, and the son stood by the tree again. "Hey, how high is this nail? Is it after a year that I have become shorter? " The son froze, and so did the father.
