“There are many things we don’t know,” Yun Qishi couldn’t help but say.
"That's true." Yun Dazheng nodded, then realized that he had been led astray by his wife again, and for a moment he was both amused and exasperated.
Before he could steer the conversation back on track, Yun Qishi said, "Old man, why don't you go find that Wu guy and ask him? Find out if our Duo'er is involved in any troublesome matters, so we don't have to stay here worrying and guessing all this time without finding out anything."
Yun Dazheng also felt it was a good idea to ask, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask tomorrow. Don't let Duo'er know yet, so she won't worry."
The elderly couple discussed and came up with an excuse for Yun Dazheng to go see Gu Wu alone before they went to sleep.
The next day, as soon as Yun Duo got up, she saw her grandfather carrying a lot of things, looking like he was going to give gifts.
Yunduo asked in surprise, "Grandpa, what are you going to do with all these things? It's so early in the morning... and the New Year is over, there's no need to give gifts anymore."
"Oh. This? Your grandma and I discussed it. Before, we didn't know what your relationship was with Brother Wu and the others, so we didn't really give them anything during the New Year, which was quite impolite. So, your grandma and I discussed sending them those things over as a way of making up for it. Anyway, we have so much food at home, we can't possibly eat that much, and it would be a waste if it went bad. Since there are so many of them, we'll send them a lot so they can help eat some."
Yun Dazheng had already discussed it with Yun Qishi, so when he saw Yun Duo asking, he casually mentioned what he and Yun Qishi had agreed upon, his tone very natural.
Yun Duo didn't suspect anything. After all, Grandpa was right; there was so much food at home that they couldn't possibly eat it all. Giving some to Uncle Wu and the others would be perfect. Although Uncle Wu and the others wouldn't care about a little food, it was the thought that counted. If they accepted it, they would be acknowledging Grandpa and Grandma's kindness, which would be beneficial.
Therefore, Yun Duo didn't object at all. Instead, she stepped forward with great interest to help: "Then I'll go with Grandpa. I can help carry some too."
Yun Dazheng shook his head, moved the hand holding the things aside, and said with a smile, "It's not heavy, Grandpa can carry it himself. You go wash up first, it'll be time to eat soon, if you don't go wash up soon, your grandma will start nagging." As he spoke, he gave Yun Duo a scared look.
Yun Duo couldn't help but laugh. She thought it really wasn't anything heavy. Since Grandpa didn't want her to help, she decided to let it go. Yun Duo nodded and said, "Grandpa, I'll go wash up first. Come back for dinner soon."
"I know, I know." Yun Dazheng nodded happily, took the things, and walked towards Gu Wu and the others' courtyard.
Gu Wu and the others got up early and had already done their morning exercise. Now, they were all wearing clothes that looked very thin to outsiders, or even with their arms bare, and were eating breakfast in the yard, some standing and some sitting.
They were all skilled martial artists, and even in the morning, their meals consisted mainly of meat.
In addition... although most of the group knew how to cook, it was limited to simply 'cooking'; there was no variety whatsoever. So, in the morning, it was basically everyone having a small bowl of plain white rice, topped with large chunks of meat...
