As Razhie has said, unless the information you have in some way endangers your grandfathers health or safety my advice is to forget what your Uncle has said. If your Uncle is his brother or brother in-law your grandfather is most likely already well aware of what your Uncle is saying about him.

I cannot explain why your Uncle may have said whatever it is he has told you. If it is derogatory in nature I can only assume there is some form of hard feeling between the two.

If you find whatever was said to you truly worrisome to you then go to either mom or dad, whoever is your grandfathers child, and ask them why your Uncle would tell you this. I'm sure your father or mother will put your concerns at ease as well as tell you why your Uncle may have said what he said and if it was true or not.

This is all the filter you need and only to put your mind at rest. If your Uncle has told you something that mom or dad is unaware of then let them decide if they feel their father needs to know this information and let them inform their father.

Is there any reason your grandfather needs to know what was said? Does it endanger him? Put him at risk? Will it do him harm if he doesn't know?

Unless what your uncle says endangers your grandfather's health or safety, then keep your mouth shut. You may be an adult, but when it comes to your uncle and grandfather, you will always be the child, and the child should never stir the shit on purpose between two older relatives. That NEVER works out well.

Unless your grandfather must know what was said for his own protection, then leave it alone.
