Solution

Granny said to Uncle Ken: "I hope it wasn't because of you." when he said that the hotel shut down.
This tells us that Uncle Ken is a bit careless in nature, which is why Granny hoped that he kept his job ("I hope he keeps it.") in the first place. When he tells her that the hotel shut down, her immediate reaction is to put the blame on him, because he must have made a few similar mistakes in the past due to which Granny has created such an impression about him.
