Lin Zhiyue looked at the pride and surprise in his father's eyes, waved his hand gently, with a confident and humble smile on his face, and spoke briskly as if he was talking about a trivial matter: "Dad, it's really no big deal. In my opinion, this is really simple.
I combined the mechanical principles and circuit knowledge I had learned before, and after repeated thinking and debugging, I found a solution. "
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the cowshed. Then, everyone's eyes met, and they looked at each other, with shock and disbelief in their eyes.
Grandpa Bai was the first to lose control and shook his head slightly. The wrinkles on his face were squeezed together in surprise. He muttered to himself, "Simple? This kid, does she know what she is talking about?"
Lin Lang took a deep breath and took a step forward, his expression concerned and inquiring: "My dear, do you know how many professional researchers have been stumped by this problem?
They spent a lot of time and energy, tried various methods, but still had no clue.
But you, who have only been in the machinery factory for a short time, have already solved this problem. How can this not be surprising?"
Grandpa Mu also agreed, his eyes full of confusion and admiration: "Yes, Yueyue. This is not an ordinary small problem. How did you do it? Tell us quickly, don't let us worry here."
Everyone nodded, staring at Lin Zhiyue, eagerly expecting her to give a reasonable explanation.
Lin Zhiyue looked at everyone's expectant eyes and stopped keeping everyone in suspense. She pulled over a small stool and sat down, and began to talk: "In fact, when I first went there, I saw the pile of broken machines and the difficulties in refitting, and I was unsure.
But I thought, now that I’m here, I can’t back down.
I first carefully checked each part and wrote down any problems I found, just like a doctor examining a patient, you have to first find the 'cause' of the disease."
"I remember there was a critical gear set that was extremely worn out, and most people would have just replaced it with a new one.
But I found that the design of this gear set is a bit unreasonable. Even if I replace it with a new one, problems will still arise after a short period of use.
So I referred to some more advanced mechanical structures and redesigned the gear tooth shape and transmission ratio. "
Lin Zhiyue gestured with her hands as she spoke, trying hard to make everyone understand.
"The circuit part was also a big problem. I re-examined the entire circuit system and found that several lines were aging and short-circuited. I replaced all the old lines and re-optimized the circuit layout to make the current transmission more stable."
Grandpa Bai was so absorbed in listening that he couldn't help but interrupt: "Girl, where did you learn all these skills?"
Lin Zhiyue smiled and said, "Grandpa Bai, I usually like to read various books on mechanics and electronics, and write down any useful knowledge I see. I was able to solve the problem this time thanks to the knowledge I accumulated in the past. I also often do some small experiments to apply theoretical knowledge to practice."
In the bullpen, everyone's enthusiasm for discussion was still high, and everyone was asking Lin Zhiyue various questions.
Grandpa Bai was curious about the details encountered during the transformation process, while Grandpa Mu was very interested in Lin Zhiyue's way of self-studying knowledge. Questions came one after another, and Lin Zhiyue always patiently answered them one by one, explaining every key point in detail, from technical principles to practical operations, without reservation.
Unconsciously, the night grew darker and darker. The moonlight shone through the cracks in the cowshed, casting silvery beams of light and forming mottled shadows on the ground.
Lin Lang looked out the window, then at the old clock on the wall. The hour hand had quietly pointed to the middle of the night. He stood up with a trace of worry on his face, and said softly, "My daughter, it's really late. It's dark outside. Daddy will take you home, so I can feel more at ease on the way."
Lin Zhiyue smiled and nodded, her eyes full of warmth: "Okay, Dad. I feel more at ease with you by my side."
As she spoke, she stood up and said goodbye to the grandparents one by one, thanking them for their concern and praise.
Everyone told her to be careful on the road and come again next time, and then they watched her and Lin Lang walk out of the cowshed and into the moonlit night.
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on Lin Zhiyue and Lin Lang's way home, lengthening their shadows.
Along the way, the father and daughter talked quietly, and the warm atmosphere spread in the night. Soon, they arrived at the door of their home.
Lin Lang stopped, turned around, looked at Lin Zhiyue tenderly, raised his hand and patted her shoulder gently, and said, "My daughter, go in quickly. Dad will watch you go in and make sure you get home safely, then I will leave."
His voice was a little tired, yet full of concern, and it seemed particularly warm in this quiet night.
Lin Zhiyue smiled and nodded, with a touch of emotion in her eyes, and responded: "Okay, Dad. Go slowly on your way back and be careful on the road. I am very happy to chat with you and the grandparents today."
As she said that, she walked up to Lin Lang and gave him a big hug, then turned around and opened the door.
After entering the house, Lin Zhiyue turned back, waved to Lin Lang who was standing at the door, and shouted again: "Dad, please go back soon!"
Lin Lang looked at his daughter with a relieved smile on his face and waved his hand. He didn't turn around until Lin Zhiyue closed the door and the warm lights came on in the house. Then he slowly disappeared into the moonlit street.
Lin Zhiyue closed the door gently and walked briskly towards her room.
As soon as she opened the door, a familiar scent hit her face. She slowly walked to the bed and sat down slowly. The soft bed felt a slight sinking feeling, as if it was gently accepting her.
She raised her head slightly, her eyes unconsciously falling on the corner of the room, her thoughts drifting back to her previous life, those long and lonely years, when she groped forward in the darkness alone, with no one caring about her, no one concerned about her, and the loneliness that penetrated deep into her bones seemed to still linger in her heart.
Now, thinking back to the scene of gathering with my father, grandparents tonight, we all sat together, eagerly discussing her experiences, caring about her life, every look and every greeting was filled with deep love.
Her eyes were slightly moist, but the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and her heart was filled with warmth. She truly felt that she finally had relatives who cared about her, and she was no longer the lonely person forgotten by the world.
Lin Zhiyue took a deep breath, calmed her inner excitement, slowly stood up, walked to the window, gently pulled the curtains, and blocked out the noise from the outside world.
Then she changed into soft pajamas, lay down on the bed, pulled the quilt over her, and slowly closed her eyes.
In her dream, she returned to the cowshed, where everyone sat together with smiles on their faces.
Her father's advice and her grandparents' care turned into a gentle breeze, surrounding her.
In this warmth and tranquility, Lin Zhiyue's breathing gradually became steady, with a smile on her lips, and she completely fell into a beautiful dream.
