Chapter 1764: Unclean?
The child doesn't understand that this is not the first time he has been to his grandma's house, and today is not the first day at his grandma's house.
Grandma had never stopped him from playing outside before.
He didn't even stop him from going to the woods last night.
Just tell him to be careful.
Why isn't it allowed today?
……
"You want to go to the woods behind the house?"
The old lady looked at her grandson. Although she was asking a question, there was not much doubt in her words.
"Yeah."
The child nodded honestly.
"Don't go to that forest."
There was something unquestionable in the old lady's tone.
"For-"
Before the child could finish speaking, the old lady continued, "That forest is not clean."
"Don't go."
"Not clean?"
The child's mouth has grown.
He didn't quite understand what grandma meant.
"Why isn't the forest clean?"
"The woods are in the wild, so of course they are not as clean as home..."
"Grandma, you are so strange."
"You obviously didn't say that when I went to the woods yesterday."
The child was confused and a little aggrieved.
He was anxious to see the tiger.
I don’t know if Tiger will come out to see him as agreed?
……
"Yes, old woman, what's wrong with you?"
The old man was also confused about what the old lady said, "Okay, why do you say that the forest is unclean?"
"We have lived here all our lives, but we have never heard of this."
"Did you hear anything from anyone?"
"Why didn't I know that this statement had been spread recently?"
……
"Grandma, I'm leaving."
In fact, the child didn't really want to know the old lady's answer. He just wanted to leave quickly and go find the tiger in the forest.
With that said, the child turned and left without waiting for the old lady to answer.
"Stop!"
The old lady suddenly raised her voice and let out a sharp voice that made the child tremble unconsciously.
"Grandma?"
The child was also a little annoyed, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to the woods!"
"I'm going to find the tiger!"
"Don't go!"
The old lady stepped forward and grabbed the child's arm, "You are not allowed to go into the woods."
"Don't go looking for that tiger!"
"Grandma?!"
The old lady's behavior really scared the child.
He struggled subconsciously.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly thin old lady was surprisingly strong at this time.
The skinny fingers tightly held his arm like an iron vise.
The child tried his best to escape from the old lady's hand.
"Grandma!"
The child yelled, "You scratched me."
"Old woman."
Seeing that something was wrong, the old man stood up from his seat and hurried to the old lady's side.
He reached out and grabbed the old lady's hand, frowning, "Let go."
"What are you doing?"
"The child is sore from your scratching."
……
"He's not allowed to go into the woods."
The old lady said stubbornly.
"Okay."
The old man responded nicely, "Leilei won't go-"
"Grandpa!"
The child shouted unwillingly.
The old man gave the child a look.
Fool.
If you don't say this at this time, grandma will not take her hands off the child's arm.
The child seemed to understand what the old man meant.
He pursed his lips and fell silent.
"Okay, look, Leile is not going out."
The old man motioned to the old lady to let go, "Don't hold on to him either."
"Children's skin is tender, but when the time comes, there will be a big bruise."
"You're going to feel bad again."
The old lady's expression changed.
The hand has loosened a little quickly. "Okay."
The old man held the old lady's arm and pulled her hand back.
"What does it look like to hold a child's arm like this?"
"Speak well if you have something to say."
"There must be a reason why you don't let your children go to the woods, right?"
"Why don't we just stop letting our children go to the woods for no reason?"
"Don't talk about the child like this. I think it's a bit too much."
……
The child touched his arm.
There is a conspicuous red mark on it.
A dull pain spread.
But he didn't pay much attention.
He just wanted to get to the woods quickly.
He couldn't help but look at the old man for help.
Grandma didn't know why she became so strange. She had to rely on grandpa's help if she wanted to go to the woods.
The old man winked at the child.
Show understanding.
"Leilei."
The old lady saw the red mark on the child's arm, and her face and tone showed distress and regret.
"All red"
"Does it hurt?"
"Grandma, I didn't mean it..."
The child pursed his lips.
Then he shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt very much."
"Somewhat at first."
"I feel nothing now."
"Really?"
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
"Now you know it hurts?"
The old man curled his lips, "If I hadn't pulled you just now, I don't know how long you would have been holding the child?"
"It will be more than just a red mark by then."
The old lady was a little embarrassed.
It's because she doesn't know what's important.
"Old woman."
The old man looked serious, "What happened?"
The old woman's reaction was unusual.
We have been an old couple for many years, and the old man thinks he knows the old woman quite well.
The old woman is not someone who would do such an unreasonable thing for no reason.
There must be some reason for it.
"Why don't you let the child go to the woods?"
"Is there anything in the woods?"
"Last night."
Suddenly an idea flashed in the old man's mind, "Did something happen last night?"
".But you didn't say anything last night."
The old man frowned.
If what happened last night really happened, the old man was a little unhappy that the old lady kept it from him.
Even if she knew that the old lady did this, she must have considered it.
But this was something related to his grandson, and he wanted to know.
"I don't know what to say."
The old lady explained.
Originally, she wanted to tell the old man what she thought.
But when the words came to her lips, she didn't know how to speak.
After being so entangled for a long time, she decided to give up telling the old man for the time being.
Maybe it was just an accident?
Nothing will happen tomorrow.
In the end, she took it for granted.
The child is still thinking about going to the forest to find that unfounded tiger!
“I have to say it even if I don’t know how to say it.”
The old man let go of the old lady's hand.
"Tell me about it."
"What happened to make you react so strongly to your child going to the woods?"
"That forest is not clean."
The old lady said the same thing before.
"Why isn't that forest clean?"
The old man has asked this question before.
But that was interrupted by the child.
He didn't hear the old lady's answer.
"Leilei."
The old lady glanced at the child and lowered her voice a little, "He said he saw a tiger."
".Huh?"
The old man opened his mouth wide, "Tiger?"
