This sudden movement naturally attracted the attention of Zhang Yao and Grandpa Mu who were sitting not far away.
Zhang Yao paused while eating meat, and looked out;
Grandpa Mu put down the wine glass in his hand and frowned slightly.
The two of them knew Mu Siwen's thoughts very well.
Normally, whenever Mu Siwen mentioned Lin Zhiyue, his eyes would become different and he couldn't hide his joy.
Today, Mu Siwen got up early, changed into new clothes, and repeatedly fixed his hair in front of the mirror.
On the other hand, Lin Zhiyue was very excited to introduce a partner to Mu Siwen.
Zhang Yao and Grandpa Mu looked at each other and understood each other tacitly.
Lin Zhiyue looked like she had no idea of Mu Siwen's thoughts and didn't think about it that way at all.
Grandpa Mu sighed softly, picked up the wine glass again, took a sip, and said slowly: "We old guys should stay out of the young people's business and let them be."
Zhang Yao also nodded thoughtfully.
The charcoal fire on the barbecue grill crackled, and sparks jumped up from time to time, dancing wildly under the dim light.
Mu Siwen stood up suddenly and walked briskly to Mu Yushang's side.
He swiftly picked up a string of tender mutton. The oil from the mutton dripped onto the charcoal fire, and instantly a puff of green smoke with a burnt aroma rose up.
Lin Zhiyue suddenly saw Mu Siwen's actions, her eyebrows slightly frowned, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
In her opinion, it was really strange that Mu Siwen usually did things in an orderly manner, but today he went to have a barbecue without any warning.
However, Lin Zhiyue has always been carefree. He shook his head and put this doubt behind him.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Zhiyue walked briskly to Lin Lang's side.
Lin Lang was concentrating on brushing sauce on the grilled chicken wings at this time. When he noticed his daughter approaching, he looked up and gave her a questioning look.
Lin Zhiyue's eyes sparkled, and he said excitedly: "Dad, I have developed a drone! I am free tomorrow, let's go to the military district to try it out, maybe it can bring new help to the troops."
Lin Lang stopped the brush in his hand, frowned slightly, and his eyes were full of curiosity: "What functions does this drone have? What role can it play in the military district?"
Not far away, three old men, Lin Weidong, Mu Xuejun and Bai Yuejin, were chatting animatedly over the aroma of wine.
Hearing the conversation between Lin Zhiyue and Lin Lang, I instantly became alert.
Lin Weidong put down the teacup in his hand and stood up first. Mu Xuejun and Bai Yuejin followed closely behind him. The three of them walked to Lin Zhiyue's side in a few steps.
Seeing this, Lin Zhiyue patiently explained: "This drone is equipped with an advanced high-definition camera, which can perform accurate reconnaissance in complex environments and obtain high-resolution images and videos. In addition, it is equipped with an intelligent analysis system that can process data in real time during flight, quickly identify targets, and greatly improve reconnaissance efficiency. Not only that, the drone is small in size and highly flexible, so it is not easy to be discovered by the enemy and has a very high concealment."
Everyone listened to Lin Zhiyue's clear introduction and nodded, with admiration and expectation in their eyes.
As the dusk deepened, the oil on the barbecue grill burst into tiny golden rays in the charcoal fire.
Grandpa Lin suddenly slapped his thigh hard, shaking the enamel pot on the stone table: "Lin Lang, tomorrow I, even with my old bones, must go and broaden my horizons!"
As he spoke he stood up tremblingly, his silver beard standing high in the evening breeze, like an old sparrow shaking its feathers.
Lin Zhiyue was sprinkling cumin powder on the skewers. Hearing this, she burst out laughing, with a few tiny sparks on her eyelashes: "Grandpa, don't get tired. This drone flies faster than the bullets you used to shoot!"
Lin Lang was pouring wine into the enamel pot, which overflowed and wet his fingers: "Dad, you take the military jeep. I'll ask Xiao Li to prepare a stool for you."
The street lights outside the courtyard wall were dim as beans. Aunt Li was strolling along the wall with an empty bowl in her hand, and was suddenly stopped by a burnt smell.
She stood on tiptoe and peeked inside through the cracks in the blue bricks. She saw sparks flying in the Lin family's yard and Lin Zhiyue was handing greasy skewers of meat to Lin Weidong.
"What's that smell so good?"
Uncle Wang came from the alley carrying a hoe, and the iron hoe made a harsh sound as it dragged on the bluestone slabs.
"What else?"
Aunt Li sniffed and rubbed the meat ticket in her apron pocket unconsciously with her fingertips. "The new gadget developed by Commander Lin's daughter is being tested. How can I treat my family unfairly?"
Several lights were lit up in the alley, and three or five neighbors holding bowls came over, their flashlights sweeping across the wall of the Lin family's courtyard.
"I heard that the boy from the Mu family is here too?"
Uncle Zhang puffed on his pipe and said, "Last time I saw him, he was wearing that Dacron shirt, the collar was blindingly white..."
The iron sheet of the barbecue grill was roasted red by the charcoal fire. Mu Yuchang threw a handful of peppercorns into the fire, and choking green smoke rose up.
The discussions outside the wall were torn apart by the wind in the twilight, but Lin Zhiyue was unaware of it and was counting on her fingers to demonstrate the drone's reconnaissance trajectory to Mu Xuejun.
The moonlight fell on the tips of her hair, dyeing those tiny words into sparkling silk threads that swayed gently in the evening breeze.
The morning light was dim and the sky was turning pale. Before the first ray of sunlight completely penetrated the clouds, Lin Zhiyue had already woken up from her sleep.
She rolled out of bed, washed up quickly, and went to the closet to choose clothes.
After thinking for a moment, she put on the light work clothes and repeatedly checked the control device of the drone in her pocket to make sure everything was in place.
Afterwards, Lin Zhiyue quickly walked to the kitchen, took out a few bites of bread and milk from the refrigerator, and then sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the clock on the wall from time to time, counting down silently in his heart.
