Acai's Sky

Acai was bending over and carefully planting strawberry seedlings, holding a delicate and small hoe in her hand.

This hoe is not an ordinary farm tool, but a magic weapon that she had carefully refined in the mysterious world of cultivation. It can be enlarged or reduced at will according to the user's wishes, and is very convenient and easy to use.

At this time, a cheerful braying sound of a little donkey came from outside the yard. Ah Cai's heart moved, and he knew that there must be a guest visiting his front yard.

So she put down the work in her hands and walked quickly towards the front yard.

Before I even entered the front yard, I could hear my second brother's joyful and excited voice from afar: "Oh my god, we're finally seeing the ocean this time! The ocean is so vast and boundless, and the seafood in the ocean is so delicious! It's so tasty!"

When Ah Cai heard this, she quickened her pace and rushed to the front yard in a blink of an eye.

I saw my father standing in the front yard with a smile on his face, and beside him were two energetic brothers. It was obvious that the trip was very smooth and the whole family returned safely.

Seeing his beloved little daughter running towards him, Li Huaishan quickly stretched out his hands, hugged Acai tightly in his arms, then lifted her up high like a child, gently threw her into the air, and then caught her steadily.

This game was repeated several times, making Ah Cai laugh non-stop.

"My dear daughter, Daddy went out this time and bought a lot of good things for our daughter Mianmian! I'll bring them all out for you later. Tell Daddy quickly, do you miss him?"

After saying that, Li Huaishan rubbed Acai's tender little face affectionately with his face covered with thick stubble.

Seeing this, Gao patted her husband lightly in an angry tone and said, "Alright, stop being so affectionate with your daughter and quickly unload the things from the car. We've all been busy for a long time and are hungry. After dinner, we have to rush to the meeting on the dam!"

Li Jingqi walked quickly to his mother and younger sister with a smile on his face, bent down gently, and gently held his younger sister's soft little hand.

His eyes sparkled with excitement as he began to describe in vivid detail the new things they had seen and the interesting experiences they had had along the way.

At this moment, Li Jinghong shouted loudly for everyone to come over and take a look.

I saw him struggling to unload a big thing from the carriage - a brand new sewing machine.

"Look, Mom! From now on, you don't have to stay up late by the oil lamp to mend our clothes! Just use this treasure, and it will sew clothes quickly and neatly!"

As Li Jinghong spoke, he patted the body of the sewing machine proudly.

Gao was attracted by her sons' words and her eyes fell on the pile of items that had just been unloaded from the carriage.

She opened her mouth in surprise and didn't know what to say for a moment.

There were not only sewing machines in front of her, but also bicycles, thermoses, radios and all kinds of exquisite household ornaments... These dazzling things dazzled her.

"Boss, why did you buy so many things at once? Did something stimulate you?" Gao looked at her husband Li Huaishan in confusion, her face full of puzzlement.

Li Huaishan smiled slightly, and calmly took out a thick stack of newspapers from his bag and handed it to Gao.

Seeing this, Gao hurriedly and carefully put her daughter on the ground, then took the newspaper with both hands and read it carefully without waiting.

Little Acai standing by also stretched her neck curiously, trying hard to see the contents of the newspaper clearly.

Wow! It turned out to be the November and December 1950 edition of the Xinhua Daily!

It contained detailed reports on the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's overseas operations, with vivid cartoons, touching photos, and insightful commentary.

Li Huaishan walked to the carriage with steady steps, bent down and began to carefully move the packages off the carriage one by one.

These bundles were large or small, but each one was filled with important items. He placed the larger and heavier bundles on the ground first, then picked up the smaller bundles one by one and slowly walked into the main room.

When Li Huaishan passed by Gao, who was sitting in a chair concentrating on reading a newspaper, he asked softly, "How is it? Any ideas? Can you find anything from this newspaper?"

Gao raised her head, her brow furrowed, a look of worry on her face. She said, "Our country was founded not long ago, and now we're facing this founding war. Moreover, our opponent is a superpower that makes money by waging wars like a grain of rice, and wields powerful weapons like the atomic bomb... This is really a headache!"

Li Huaishan nodded slightly, agreeing with her opinion, and continued, "There's a meeting coming up soon. I have to quickly deliver this newspaper to Doctor Shen and the others so that everyone can understand the situation. Take a closer look at it!"

Gao's gaze returned to the newspaper, muttering to herself, "Going into battle so hastily, I wonder if the Soviets in the north will provide us with some support? Without external assistance, this battle will be difficult to win."

At this time, Li Huaishan had returned with several thermos bottles in his hands.

As he walked, he responded, "How is that possible? How could such a good thing fall into our hands for free? Stop daydreaming!"

As he spoke, he gently placed the thermos on the table and then opened one of the packages.

The bundle contained the newly bought clothing materials for Ah Cai and several ready-made garments.

Li Huaishan gently shook the fabrics, with a hint of tenderness and care in his eyes.

"Warfare is different from other things. It involves real money! How can we survive without money? So we have no choice but to borrow."

Li Huaishan sighed and continued, "But if you borrow, you must repay. When the war is over, how to repay the debt will be the most difficult problem!"

Gao's eyes widened, their gaze fixed on the bundle he had just opened. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Oh my! How much stuff did you buy? With so much fabric, I'm afraid you won't need to buy new ones for the next ten years!"

Upon hearing this, Li Huaishan curled his lips slightly and responded helplessly, "After this war, how much stuff do you think we'll be able to easily buy? By then, all kinds of resources will surely become increasingly scarce and limited."

However, Gao seemed a little unconvinced. She shook her head slightly and retorted, "Why can't we buy it? Our country can still import from other places. There are no resources that we can't get."

Li Huaishan couldn't help but sneer. As he continued to laboriously carry the heavy bags towards the house, he said unhappily, "Humph, you're dreaming! We're currently locked in a fierce battle with them. Do you think they'll be so kind as to let us easily import the supplies we need? Stop daydreaming!"

Gao couldn't help but frown when she heard this. She looked at the pile of cloth in front of her with worry, muttering to herself, "Oh, so much cloth must be stored properly, otherwise it will all be wasted after a long time. But then again, I did buy a bit too much this time..."

"Are you afraid that you won't be able to buy things in the future?"
