Once upon a time, in a small village in Russia, there lived a hard - working old man. The old man had a large vegetable garden, where he planted all kinds of vegetables. Among them, there was a radish seed that was very special, and the old man was full of expectation for it. Every day, the old man would get up early to water, fertilize, and weed the radish, taking good care of it carefully. As days passed by, the radish seed gradually germinated and grew, and finally grew into a huge radish. This radish was so big that its leaves were like large green fans, and its body was thick and strong, with half of it buried in the soil.
Looking at this big radish, the old man thought that such a big radish must be very delicious. So, he decided to pull it out. He grasped the leaves of the radish tightly and exerted all his strength, but the radish didn't move at all. The old man's face turned red, and big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he still didn't give up.
At this time, the old woman came out of the house. Seeing the old man struggling to pull the radish, she quickly ran over to help. She hugged the old man's waist tightly and pulled the radish together with the old man, shouting, "One, two, three, pull!" However, the radish still didn't move.
The little grandson heard the noise outside in the house and ran out. When he saw his grandparents pulling the radish, without a word, he ran behind his grandparents and hugged his grandma's legs, following them to pull with all his strength. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren worked together with all their might, all panting with exhaustion, but the radish seemed to have taken root in the ground and couldn't be pulled out no matter what.
Just when everyone was a little frustrated, the family dog ran over. Seeing everyone pulling the radish, the dog also excitedly joined in. It bit the little grandson's clothes and also pulled with all its strength. Everyone got their spirits up again, shouted the slogan together, and pulled the radish with all their strength once more.
Suddenly, the radish moved a little, and then was slowly pulled out. Everyone was extremely happy. Looking at the big radish, the old man had a happy smile on his face. The fact that this big radish was pulled out was the result of the whole family's united efforts, and this story also made everyone understand that the power of unity is infinite.
