Yun Duo was hit by a giant egg that fell from the sky and transported to another world's 1960s. Upon opening her eyes, she was about to be sold as a child bride to a fool. After narrowly escapi...
"Duo'er is unhappy." Yun Duo looked at Yun Dazheng and said clearly. She paused and then said, "Grandpa won't tell Duo'er what's on her mind, and Duo'er won't tell Grandpa that she's going to go play with Uncle Wu."
Of course, this wasn't a slip of the tongue by Yun Duo, nor was it a genuine trip to find Gu Wu.
Rather, it was... a test.
She felt that her grandfather's attitude had been strange lately.
Not only did he seem preoccupied, but his smile was also much stiffer than before when he looked at Uncle Wu and the others. He wondered if it was because the incident of Uncle Wu firing the gun had left a psychological scar on his grandfather, and that's why he was deliberately testing him.
To everyone's surprise, the moment the words "Uncle Wu" were uttered, his grandfather's face turned deathly pale.
Very obvious, and very fast.
Clearly, her guess was correct; Grandpa's recent worries were indeed related to Uncle Wu.
It seems that Grandpa was really frightened?
How can I tactfully tell Grandpa that Uncle Wu won't hurt them? If I do, will Grandpa believe me?
And what about Grandma? Was she also scared and worried? Just not as obviously as Grandpa?
Otherwise, why would Grandpa be acting this way lately? It's obvious something's wrong; she noticed it and couldn't help but ask. There's no reason why Grandma wouldn't say or ask anything...
Just as Yun Duo's mind was racing, Yun Dazheng pulled her back to sit down. After thinking for a moment, Yun Dazheng simply dragged Yun Duo to their room.
In any case, their room is a little bit far from the neighbors' house.
After pulling Yun Duo into his room, Yun Dazheng lowered his voice and cautiously began, "Duo'er, Grandpa knows that your Uncle Wu helped us last time, and you're grateful to him, and so am I. But... he has a gun, and those things are very dangerous... Even if your Uncle Wu and the others are good people, and guns are only used to deal with outsiders, who knows if they might accidentally go off? It's too dangerous..."
"Besides, one should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against them. What if... Grandpa means what if, what if your Uncle Wu and the others..."
"Hey, Grandpa isn't saying they're bad people, he just feels they're a bit dangerous, so it's always better for us to stay away. Don't you agree?"
"Besides, those people are obviously not like us country folk, so we'd better avoid dealing with them."
"Of course, Grandpa thinks they're probably not bad people, it's just... we have to be careful, we have to be careful, you understand?"
Hearing Yun Dazheng's obviously incoherent words, Yun Duo finally understood why Yun Dazheng had become so preoccupied lately.
Fearing that Yun Dazheng might worry, she could only nod in agreement for the time being.
Seeing Yun Duo nod, Yun Dazheng felt a little relieved and said, "Good child, remember what Grandpa said. Just be careful in your daily life, but don't show it, and don't tell anyone, okay?"
"Otherwise..." If they find out and do something, he will regret it immensely.
However, before Yun Dazheng could finish speaking, Yun Duo had an idea. So, before Yun Dazheng could finish speaking (of course, Yun Dazheng's speech was indeed intermittent at this moment, because he himself did not know how to say it), she said, "Ah, Grandpa, I remember!"
