Thinking it over, a serious look flashed across Gu Wu's face, but then he put on a peacemaker's expression: "Uncle Yun, is it because... Xiao Duo is naughty? Did she make you angry? Do you want to... teach her a lesson?"
"No, she's still young. It's normal for her to be naughty sometimes, but you can't hit her. You should teach her properly. I think Xiao... Xiao Duo is usually very sensible. You should talk to her and reason with her; she'll listen."
"Hitting people is not good. Many children become more rebellious and disobedient the more they are hit."
"So, Uncle Yun, you should teach them properly and not hit them."
What the heck?
Yun Dazheng couldn't help but think of those words.
To be honest, every time he met "Brother Wu" face to face, he felt that this person was not a bad person, that he had no ill intentions towards them, only good intentions, and this time was naturally the same.
(Of course, behind the scenes, the old man was genuinely getting more and more frightened. Suspicion breeds fear, after all. Besides, in Yun Dazheng's mind, Gu Wu and his group's arrival was indeed a bit suspicious, so it was unlikely he wouldn't overthink it.)
However, it's a good thing that Brother Wu could mistakenly think that he was going to hit his granddaughter. That way, he probably wouldn't suspect that he was going to let his granddaughter run away, right?
Thinking about it, Yun Dazheng's expression changed, revealing a hint of embarrassment: "Brother Wu, you see... I feel quite embarrassed by what you're saying. This child, in this freezing weather, insisted on going out to play, saying she wanted to go skiing and see if any pheasants were out looking for food. This child is just being silly... Let alone in this cold weather, the chances of pheasants coming out are very slim, and even if they did, how could she possibly catch them? She still thinks it's like before..."
"I only said a few words to her, and she started making a scene... She said she'd been locked up at home for days and wanted to go out for some fresh air and play, but I wouldn't let her. She even said she'd call 'Grandma' and 'Grandma' to come and reason with you..."
“I’m really…afraid of her…” Yun Dazheng said, shaking his head. He then turned to Yun Duo and said in a deliberately helpless tone, “You child, all I did was tell you not to go out in this cold weather, and you’ve already alarmed your Uncle Wu. Here’s what we’ll do: wear something warmer and go out to play for a while, but not for too long. Otherwise, if you catch a cold, Grandpa will have to take you to get a shot.”
"Getting a shot hurts a lot, are you scared?"
While speaking, he took advantage of the fact that 'Brother Wu' couldn't see him to desperately wink at Yun Duo.
Yun Duo sighed deeply, pulled Yun Dazheng to his usual chair and made him sit down. She then pulled Yun Qishi, who had come over after hearing the noise, to sit down as well. Only then did she look at Gu Wu and say, "Uncle Wu, please tell Grandpa and Grandma what you call me in private."
Yun Dazheng was both angry and frightened. How could his usually obedient and sensible granddaughter suddenly become so disobedient? It was as if she had been cursed. He was trying to avoid the neighbors like the plague, but what was wrong with this child...?
What was he supposed to do?
Despite his thoughts, Yun Dazheng dared not show them. He could only gently tug at Yun Duo's clothes and say in a low voice, "Child, don't be silly. Your Uncle Wu has important things to do. Don't waste his time. You..." Before he could finish speaking, Yun Dazheng suddenly heard a "Miss" and was stunned for a moment.
Did he mishear? He must have misheard.
Why would Brother Wu call his own daughter "Miss"?
What exactly is going on?
