Chapter 385: Full of Proud
Su Huairen didn't sleep much the whole night and went to the hospital early the next morning.
Tang Hongmian looked unhappy when she saw that he left without even having breakfast.
"What's wrong with you two? Did you have another fight last night?"
Tan Qiumei's hearing is not very good as she is getting older. Although she knew that her son and daughter-in-law were arguing, she couldn't hear it clearly in the room.
Now seeing her son leaving early in the morning without even eating, she couldn't help but blame Tang Hongmian.
"Why are you arguing with him? It's so hard for a man to work outside, and you don't do anything at home. Can't you be considerate of him?"
After being scolded, Tang Hongmian felt angry and aggrieved, but she couldn't say a word in rebuttal.
Because she really didn't have a job and didn't earn any money, she could only cook, take care of the children at home every day.
Although she seemed to be the dean's wife with unlimited glory to outsiders, no one at home looked up to her.
Even her two children despised her for being a freeloader.
Tang Hongmian listened to her mother-in-law's nagging but didn't dare to say a word.
Not only that, she also worked tirelessly to serve soy milk, arrange chopsticks, and distribute fried dough sticks to everyone in the family.
But Tang Hongmian's silence still failed to earn Tan Qiumei a good look.
"What's wrong with this soy milk? It's so hot. Do you want to scald me to death?"
As Tan Qiumei spoke, she placed the bowl in her hand heavily on the table.
Tang Hongmian couldn't help but shudder.
"Mom, let me hang it out for you."
As she spoke, Tang Hongmian carefully picked up the bowl in front of Tan Qiumei.
Tan Qiumei snorted heavily.
"No wonder my son looks down on you. You are so clumsy and not even as good as the one in front of you!"
It is said that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, but Tang Hongmian didn't believe it before she got married.
She felt that given her relationship with Tan Qiumei over the years, they would be able to get along no matter what.
But she was proved to be too naive.
Ever since she gave birth to a daughter as her first child, Tan Qiumei has become a different person.
Not only did she not get enough good food to eat during the confinement period, but she was also asked to do laundry and cook.
If she dared to disobey, she threatened to tell Su Huairen what she had done.
Being forced into a corner, Tang Hongmian had no choice but to let her do what she wanted.
She didn't even dare to go home and file a complaint.
Later, Su Huairen was transferred to Beijing. Tang Hongmian had no relatives and was even less willing to resist.
Until now, she has developed a hardworking character. Every day at home, she is either doing housework or being scolded by Tan Qiumei.
Even when she compared herself with Ding Yuzhen, Tang Hongmian could only be angry but not say anything.
After Tan Qiumei's outburst, she finally felt better.
But Tang Hongmian could no longer eat.
On the other side, Su Huairen managed to pull himself together and finish the morning meeting.
Just as he was about to pour a cup of hot water, he saw Sun Mu walking towards him with a mysterious look on his face.
"President Su, do you know who the lesbian was in the hotel yesterday?"
The lesbian in the hotel yesterday?
Isn’t that Su Ranran?
"Who is she?" Isn't she his daughter?
Although there is no more conclusive evidence, Su Huairen has already determined that Su Ranran is his daughter.
Sun Mu didn't say anything, and the smile on his face became even more mysterious.
He took out a newspaper from behind and handed it to him.
"Do you remember the saline-alkali rice that caused a national uproar two years ago?"
Of course Su Huairen remembered it. After all, saline-alkali rice was so magical that there were probably few people in the country who had not heard of it.
Sun Mu spread out the newspaper in his hand, pointed at the photo and asked, "Take a look, is she the lesbian I saw in the hotel yesterday?"
Hearing this, Su Huairen was completely stunned.
He almost snatched the newspaper from Sun Mu's hand by force.
After seeing that the lesbian in the photo was really Su Ranran, Su Huairen's hands began to tremble.
"It's really Ranran! She's my girlfriend!"
It turns out that the saline-alkaline rice that caused a sensation across the country two years ago was actually developed by the young lady and another comrade?
Su Huairen was overwhelmed by a huge feeling of surprise and pride.
"Hahaha! She really is my daughter. My daughter is so amazing!"
When the people around heard this, they all gathered around curiously.
"Director Sun, what happened to President Su?" someone asked in a low voice.
"The woman who invented saline-alkali rice in the newspaper is the daughter of President Su."
On the way back last night, Su Huairen told me that he was divorced and had an older daughter.
Seeing that Su Huairen kept calling her a precious daughter, Sun Mu simply helped promote her.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"You said that Comrade Su Ranran is Dean Su's daughter?"
"But isn't his daughter only in junior high school?"
After a while, Sun Mu was surrounded by people, and they all asked what the relationship between Su Huairen and Su Ranran was.
“Are they really biological father and daughter?”
"It's true. Comrade Su Ranran is the daughter of Dean Su and his ex-wife."
After hearing this, everyone understood immediately.
Although divorce is not a glorious thing nowadays, there were too many people who divorced in that decade just to sever ties.
Therefore, they were not too surprised about the divorce.
On the contrary, many people regarded Su Ranran as an idol. Now when they heard that she was actually the daughter of President Su, they were all excited.
"President Su, congratulations on having such a great daughter!"
"President Su, when will you invite Comrade Su Ranran to our hospital? Let us all learn from her noble spirit."
Hearing everyone's praise, Su Huairen felt a little overwhelmed, and he couldn't hide the pride on his face.
But when Su Huairen thought about how Su Ranran refused to recognize him yesterday, he felt a little depressed.
"There will be a chance. When I have time, I will let her come and meet everyone."
I don't know whether I am saying this to others or to myself.
After getting Su Huairen's promise, everyone left happily.
It was almost time to go to work, and they had to return to their respective posts.
After a while, most of the people left.
Su Huairen was the only one left, still holding the newspaper and reading its contents carefully.
After learning that his daughter was now doing saline-alkali rice cultivation research in the northwest, he couldn't help but feel distressed.
Life in the Northwest is so miserable, it's poor, backward and there's a water shortage.
Su Huairen never thought that a girl who looked so delicate would do such hard work.
After feeling proud, Su Huairen couldn't help but wonder why she chose to pursue such a difficult career in agricultural research.
Is it because there are no jobs in the city?
Thinking of this, Su Huairen wished he could use his connections to find her a job that was both easy and well-paid.
Su Ranran didn't know that Su Huairen was already thinking about her.
At this time, she planned to see if there was a suitable courtyard house.
