Chapter 443
As she spoke, Grandma Wang gave the clouds what she thought was a loving expression.
It was this so-called 'compassionate' expression that made Yun Duo feel her hair standing on end... Such hypocritical 'compassion' was simply terrifying!
This old lady is definitely a wolf in sheep's clothing.
Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't have shown such an expression!
Thinking this way, Yun Duo became even more resistant. She immediately frowned, revealing a wary expression, and said, "I don't know you. I don't want to go to your house. What if you're the wolf in the picture book who's going to eat me? Or what if you're the kidnapper the teacher mentioned who's going to kidnap children and sell them for money?"
Grandma Zhao's face stiffened instantly. After a long while, she tried to put on a peaceful and loving expression and looked at Yun Duo, saying, "Silly child, Grandma is Grandma, your own grandma, your mother's mother, not some wolf grandma. She won't eat you up."
"As for kidnappers... Grandma is not a kidnapper. Not only am I not a kidnapper, but I can also help Duo'er drive away kidnappers. In Grandma's family, there is a very powerful uncle and two very powerful cousins. They will protect you. If any bad guys try to kidnap our Duo'er, your uncle and your cousins will definitely break the bad guys' legs."
“Once you go to Grandma’s house, Duo’er won’t be afraid of bad people anymore.”
Hearing this, Yun Duo nodded vigorously. However, before Grandma Zhao could be happy, Yun Duo's words came straight at her.
"I know, I know, because you yourselves are bad people, so I'm only afraid of you and don't have time to be afraid of other bad people."
What utter nonsense is this?!
Old Mrs. Zhao's face twitched violently, her face so stiff it looked like a fake face, the kind that would shatter into pieces if hit with a stick.
Not only was Old Lady Zhao in a bad state, but Old Man Zhao was in no better shape either. His face twitched as if he had suffered a stroke. He endured it again and again before swallowing back the words of reprimand, but his expression was extremely unpleasant.
Yun Dazheng was very happy. He coughed lightly, suppressing his laughter, and looked at the old man and woman of the Zhao family, saying, "I'm sorry, Brother Zhao, our Duo'er is simple-minded and says what she thinks. She can't be tactful."
"You may not necessarily be bad people."
"But this child has suffered greatly in the past, and now... he's very cautious."
"She's timid, and we, her husband and I, are not very knowledgeable and can't teach her anything. She studied for half a year and has taken to it, applying the stories in the books to herself. When she meets a stranger who is overly attentive to her, her first reaction is that they are a bad person trying to harm her..."
"Come to think of it, there's some truth to that. After all, as the books say, 'Those who offer unsolicited kindness are either up to no good or are thieves.'"
"What's said in books can't possibly be wrong."
"Oh, oh, I'm sorry... Brother Zhao, I'm just... well, I guess I haven't been resting well lately, so sometimes I don't know how to be tactful when I speak, and it can be unpleasant to hear."
"I'm not saying you guys are being overly helpful for no reason; you're either up to no good or a thief..."
"After all, we don't know if that's true or not."
"However, the child is timid and wary, so please bear with him."
"If we really can't take responsibility for this... it's okay, right?"
"We've never interacted with anyone before, so there's no need to pretend to be overly friendly."
