He was trying to calm his grandson down. If resentment builds up, it would affect their minds.
He didn't want his grandson to become a vengeful ghost full of hatred.
Upon hearing this, Helian Qiao said, "Then why not kill him?"
Such a simple solution!
Every grievance has its debtor, an eye for an eye.
Standing next to Guibao, Gu Tingyun didn't disagree with her words.

Because his grandfather consistently pacified him and kept him in check, his resentment wasn't too strong.
Every time it would sprout, it would be promptly nipped in the bud by his grandfather.
Helian Qiao crossed her arms and nodded approvingly, "Indeed, you're too weak!"
The little boy: ...
He wanted to protest, but thinking of her fists, he kept his mouth shut.
Even though he's already dead, it still hurts to get hit!
He'd rather dodge if he can!
