Dragonwings – Chapters 3–4

Later that evening, as I lay on my mat, I heard a sound like a great bear shuffling down the hall. There was a tap at the door. I opened it to see Uncle. He looked down at me. "Thought you'd be up," he pretended to grumble. "This is just a little knickknack I made in my spare time. If you don't want it, just throw it away." He tossed something over onto my mat and left...It was a wooden carving of Monkey, the creature born of a stone egg who became king of all the monkeys...I figured out later that he must have carved it late at night when the others had gone to sleep...It was only later that I saw how rheumatic Uncle's hands were, when he could sometimes barely grip his chopsticks. I realized then just how much effort it must have taken for him to hold a knife and wield it so painstakingly
From the passage, what does Moon Shadow's point of view reveal about Uncle
Uncle is a selfish man with no care for others
Uncle's loyalty to the men of the Company is sincere.
Uncle is hard-hearted and set in his ways**
Uncle has a tender side but doesn't reveal it to many people.
