Zhao Hongyu's family was surprised to hear Grandma yelling at them.
"Mom, don't be mad." Hao Zhonghua immediately stepped forward and explained, "I had something to deal with at work, so I'm a bit late."
"Scientific research is the most important thing, so you can ignore my business?" Grandma asked sternly with a straight face.
Seeing Grandma's tone soften, Hao Zhonghua took the opportunity to step forward and help her. "I …"
"Give me your hand!" Grandma yelled again.
Hao Zhonghua, the handsome man, shivered at his mother's scolding. He looked at Zhao Hongyu's family and felt a bit awkward.
"Auntie …" Zhao Hongyu walked toward Grandma when she saw the situation.
"Hongyu, stay out of this. I'm going to lose my temper today." Grandma reached out to stop Zhao Hongyu.
Seeing Grandma and Hao Zhonghua in a stalemate, Yue Yang couldn't help but say, "Mom, you have high blood pressure. Don't be angry …"
"You too!" Grandma, who was usually kind, seemed to be on fire today. "Have you taken care of Ren since he was a kid? I was the one who brought them up! Have you ever worried about your family's affairs? I'm the one who takes care of everything! You only know how to work all day! "
Yue Yang stepped back and didn't say anything after being scolded by Grandma.
"Give me your hand!" Grandma yelled at Hao Zhonghua for the third time.
Seeing his mother trembling in anger, Hao Zhonghua was afraid that her high blood pressure would act up. He lowered his head in embarrassment and reached out his hand.
Grandma looked around and saw a folding fan on the coffee table. She picked it up.
Both sides of the folding fan were made of top-quality mahogany, which was hard and smooth.
"Filial piety is the most important of all virtues. Have you forgotten all the rules of your ancestors after traveling abroad and interacting with foreign devils?" Grandma took Hao Zhonghua's hand, and the folding fan fell into his palm with a snap.
The pain made Hao Zhonghua want to take back his hand, but he didn't dare to do so in front of his mother.
A red mark immediately appeared on his palm.
"Where were you when I fainted from high blood pressure? Where were you when I was discharged from the hospital? I'm finally going home, but where are you? If it weren't for Zhao Hongyu's family, I would have been dead! "
Pa! Another hard hit landed on Hao Zhonghua's palm.
Yue Yang didn't dare to stop her, so she said in a low voice, "Mom, don't say that."
"Everything I said is the truth! Hongyu's family has saved my life and taken care of me. What about you guys? One is my son, and the other is my daughter-in-law. But where were you when I was in the most dangerous situation? This is how you treat your savior! I'm an old woman! Although I'm illiterate, I still understand the meaning of the word 'trust'! "
Another hard hit landed on Hao's palm. Another vicious strike landed on Hao Zhonghua's palm, making a loud sound.
Hao Zhonghua's palms quickly turned red, and this world-famous scientist didn't dare to resist in front of his mother. His face also turned red, and sweat covered his face.
"Since we agreed to meet at 11 o 'clock, we'll meet at 11 o' clock. If we don't arrive on time, we'll be breaking our promise! Hongyu and her family are my benefactors. You let them wait for nothing at home and waste their good intentions. This is betrayal! "
Pa pa pa pa! The fans hit Hao Zhonghua's palms like raindrops. Every sentence was accompanied by a reprimand.
"Disloyal and unfilial! Treachery! Why would I want a son like you! " The more Grandma hit, the angrier she got. Even though she was panting, the strength of her hands didn't weaken at all. Instead, she hit harder and harder.
Hao Zhonghua bent over in front of his mother, frowning and enduring the pain. He couldn't even lift his head.
When he was young, his grandma would use this method to punish him mercilessly no matter if he was naughty or lazy in his studies. Ever since he grew up and became successful, he hadn't been punished like this for more than 20 years.
Now, in front of outsiders, he once again experienced his mother's anger. What he felt was not only the burning pain in his palm, but also shame, guilt, and gratitude!
"I used to teach you about filial piety, loyalty, loyalty, propriety, justice, honor, and shame! You've forgotten all of them! "
Pa pa pa pa! Another loud sound of wood and palms colliding. Even so, Hao Zhonghua gritted his teeth and endured his grandma's anger. He didn't take back the hands that were considered the most dexterous and precious in the field of biology. They could separate cell membranes with their fingers with the help of a microscope and a pair of tweezers.
"Don't think that you are great just because you have won a few awards and are supported by the mayor! God is watching over you! How can you be a man when you treat your benefactor like this! "Grandma panted and finally couldn't stand anymore. She sat back on the sofa.
"Mom, I was wrong," Hao Zhonghua moved forward and grabbed his grandma's trembling hands and said sincerely.
"I was wrong, too," Yue Yang stepped forward and said with her head lowered.
"It's not too late to change! Don't only learn those western things and forget your ancestors! "Grandma said loudly.
"Auntie, don't be so angry. You just got out of the hospital, and you should take care of yourself." Seeing that the time was right, Zhao Hongyu stepped forward to comfort her.
"Grandma, don't be angry," Zhao Yanzi also walked over and comforted Grandma.
Hao Ren also walked up and patted Grandma's back to calm her down.
Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang stood on the side in silence. These two great scientists who had been acting freely in the auditorium a few days ago now had tears in their eyes.
"Honor! Honor! To be a man, one had to be faithful! Don't think that you are doing something great and have forgotten the basic principles of being a man! "Grandma raised her head and said again.
"Mom, we were wrong," Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang said together.
"Hurry up and help me carry my things!" Grandma glared at them.
Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang immediately moved Grandma's things from the living room into the car outside. Hao Ren also went over to help. He saw that his dad's hands were as red as persimmons, and they were trembling slightly. He knew that Grandma was really angry this time.
"I'm really sorry about what happened today," Grandma took a few deep breaths and said to Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang with a kind face.
"It's okay," Zhao Guang said with a smile.
By scolding her son in public, Hao Ren's grandma had done her best. Since she had scolded and apologized, Zhao Hongyu's family would no longer be unhappy about Hao Ren's parents' tardiness.
"Mom, everything is packed. Let's go eat now," Hao Zhonghua walked back into the house and said.
After a few minutes of adjustment, he was no longer as embarrassed as before.
"Ok." Grandma stood up and walked out of the door.
After a few days of rest at Zhao Hongyu's home, her body was stronger than before, and her complexion was much rosier.
Although she was old, she wasn't muddle-headed. She had a rough idea of how many rare and precious ingredients Zhao Hongyu had put into the chicken soup that she had cooked for her these days.
On the other hand, Zhao Hongyu told her that she liked Hao Ren, and she would remember it.
Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren were always together. Hao Ren wasn't talkative, and Zi was obedient. In Grandma's eyes, they were a perfect match.
Now that she had established herself as the benefactor of Zhao Hongyu's family and exerted her authority as the head of the family, things would be easy to handle next.
As long as they had feelings for each other, she would be willing to wait a few more years. It didn't matter if she was younger; there were even child brides in her generation!
Hao Ren didn't know that there was a deeper reason for Grandma's anger. He walked her out of the house and walked her to his dad's Ford.
Zhao Guang drove his black Chevrolet out, and the two cars headed toward Starlight Hotel one after the other.
"Do you want to have a simple meal today, or do you want to make things clear?" Zhao Hongyu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked Zhao Guang, who was driving.
"Auntie was just using our power to prove to us that she is the boss of this family. Since that's the case, let's make things clear today, "Zhao Guang said calmly.
Zhao Yanzi, who was sitting in the back, bit her lip and didn't say anything when she heard her parents' discussion.
"I don't want to marry that dumb uncle …" she thought absent-mindedly as she looked at the clouds outside.
