Chapter 92 Chu Mingyu's Invention
"An An." Chu Mingzhou hugged her tightly and changed the subject softly, "After the New Year, starting from the first day of the new year, there will be lanterns over Sanxi Lake in Sanxi Village. Do you want to go and see them?"
Lin Anan leaned in his arms and looked up at him. "Is it popular to watch lanterns in the Northwest? We should go and see. In Sucheng, we all light butter lamps and release river lanterns to pray for blessings. The customs are a little different."
"I'll take you there when the time comes and buy you a sheep lantern."
"good."
When the two of them came out after washing up, they happened to see a few little guys dancing and shouting.
"What's going on?"
Chu Mingyu waved to Lin Anan, straightened his body, and spoke more forcefully than usual, "Sister-in-law, come and see how awesome I am! I made a train!"
Lin Anan didn't react for a moment, "What train?"
A very miniature railway track is placed in the main hall, with regular ups and downs. There is a simple iron lump on the track. It is not difficult to see that it is the prototype of a train, with three carriages.
I don’t know how Chu Mingyu did it, but the train was running with a "crunching" sound at this time.
Seeing this, Lin Anan's eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly stepped forward, squatted down, and looked at it carefully, "Xiaoyu, did you do this?"
"Yes, sister-in-law. Cheng and Zhi helped me in the early stage. Later, I took the things home. I completed it all by myself."
"Xiao Yu, you, you are such a little genius!" Lin Anan praised with surprise on her face.
He used electric traction...
It is the 1970s, the era of steam locomotives. There are very few diesel locomotives, let alone electric locomotives.
Lin Anan hurriedly looked at Chu Mingzhou, only to see that Chu Mingzhou was also frowning at the little train.
"Mingzhou, Xiaoyu is so smart. He uses the contact network to obtain electricity, and converts it through a small device he created to drive the traction motor to rotate the wheels and make the train run."
Chu Mingzhou looked serious and nodded.
Lin Anan reached out and hugged the confused Chu Mingyu, and continued: "This is the most efficient way to convert energy. It can make the train go faster and it is also very environmentally friendly."
Everyone looked at each other, obviously not understanding.
Aunt Chu smiled and nodded at Lin An'an, "An'an's words are so pleasant to the ears. She sounds very cultured when she opens her mouth. An'an, come here. Auntie cooked dumplings today. There are several flavors. Try them."
Lin Anan's eyes flashed, and she smiled helplessly in her heart.
"Okay, here I come."
It was indeed inappropriate for her to tell them this.
However, just based on the little train in front of her, Lin Anan had to pay more attention to Chu Mingyu.
In the future, if he is interested in this area, he must be well trained. He will definitely become a talent like a train locomotive engineer and his future is limitless!
"Eat, eat."
After hearing the praise from his sister-in-law, Chu Mingyu's little face flushed with smiles, his chest puffed out even higher, and he ran forward to hold Lin Anan's hand, "Sister-in-law, I put a lot of effort into it, and spent a long time thinking about it before I made it. Am I awesome?"
Chu Minglan, who was standing by, also came over and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, Brother Yu made a mess of the room in order to make this little train."
"Haha, it's okay. Sister-in-law will come back later to clean up for Xiaoyu."
Everyone came to the dining table and sat around it in a lively atmosphere. Aunt Chu brought up plates of dumplings, and the aroma instantly filled the whole room, making people swallow their saliva.
Chu Mingyu sat down next to Lin Anan and pointed to the plate of dumplings on the left. "Sister-in-law, try these dumplings. They are specially made by my aunt with mutton and carrot fillings. They are delicious."
Lin Anan smiled and picked up a dumpling. She took a bite and nodded in praise. "The filling of this dumpling is fresh, fragrant and juicy, and the skin is chewy. It's delicious."
Aunt Chu smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits when she heard this. "If it tastes good, eat more. There are several kinds of fillings, such as leeks and eggs, pork and cabbage. Try them all."
Chu Mingzhou also put a few dumplings in Lin Anan's bowl. Without saying much, he waited for her to finish eating and then took her to the art troupe.
Today is the 22nd day of the lunar year, and the Northwest Army troops have officially had their day off.
However, the holiday here is different from that in the outside world. The soldiers are still at their posts and are on guard at all times.
There is no other way. The more festive the times are, the more they have to be vigilant, just to ensure that the people have a good year.
As soldiers and their families, we have actually gotten used to it a long time ago.
The two 'newcomers', Lin An'an and Lin Zihuai, were naturally completely unaware of the situation and thought that they and the art troupe were the busiest.
However, the current art troupe is indeed the busiest in the entire army.
When Lin Anan and the others arrived at the art troupe, they saw a lot of people gathered together, chattering about something.
"What's going on?"
"Our performance costumes have been delivered."
Bai Ling was leading people to prepare to count the registrations, "Let's wait a little longer, and we'll start when the people arrive."
"The costumes for this performance are really beautiful." Many people praised.
The performance costume is a military green uniform style with a tough overall cut, but above this toughness, it is cleverly dotted with bright little red flowers, red like fire, warm and eye-catching, contrasting with the military green color, instantly making the whole dress more lively and less serious.
If you walk closer and take a closer look, you will see that the embroidery of the little red flowers is very delicate, and each petal is lifelike, as if it had just been plucked from a branch and carefully inlaid on the military uniform.
At the neckline, a slightly larger red flower blooms diagonally, with slightly curled petals, which is particularly beautiful. At the cuffs and belt, there are also a few small red flowers embroidered here and there, clustered together, like dots of flower rain that have fallen carelessly.
There is also a delicate red flower pinned on one side of the brim of the matching military cap. The cap badge looks even more sparkling against the backdrop of the red flower, and it looks so energetic.
Looking at the pants again, they also have the same army green tone, but are slightly tighter than ordinary military pants to show the figure better.
"This performance costume is really beautifully designed. It has the heroic spirit of our soldiers and a strong festive feel. When we wear it on stage, it will definitely be very eye-catching."
"Yes, yes. I didn't expect that adding these red flowers would make it look so different. It's so beautiful."
"Yes, it's just right for the New Year!"
Everyone praised it one after another and liked it very much.
