Answer:
Josephine March and Grandpa Laurence's meeting in the library was at the start scary for Jo but as they continue conversing, she found that he is a rather pleasant and warm old man.
Explanation:
Though Josephine March and Mr. Laurence had been familiar with each other before, their real interaction with each other in detail happened only in Chapter 5 when Jo went to visit Laurie who got sick and was stuck at home. Jo, ever trying to lead the Christian life and also curious about her neighbors, went to the house to cheer up the sick boy. It was there that she met grandpa. Mistaking grandpa for Laurie, she commented on the portrait of him in the library, which was answered by the old man himself. At first, Jo was embarassed and intimidated by him. She had basically insulted him saying that he looks scary, with a grim mouth but with kind eyes and seemed to have a strong will but also not as handsome as her own grandfather. Mr Laurence wasn't offended by it. Instead he found Jo and her spirit commendable and he liked it. thus, starts the good relation they will share all through the story. Their further conversations on why she visited their place, how her mother has been all shows that even grandpa is also happy with the company she provides.
