“Xiao Cui is my wife, and her child is my child.” Cen Xiao’s expression remained unchanged, but his tone was firm.
"Your child? Is your child really so ill-mannered? After coming in, he can't even greet people? Cen Xiao, you are an expert in military strategy, but your taste in women is terrible."
Yuan Qiu couldn't hold back any longer: "My aunt is incredibly beautiful and exceptionally capable, what's wrong with her? Even if she's not, she's still better than your daughter! At least we don't harm people!"
Cen Xiao: "Shut up! Children shouldn't interrupt adults!"
“He humiliated my aunt. As his nephew and godson, how can I not even care about my own mother being bullied? Am I even a man?”

Yuan Qiu, Er Ya, and San Ya reluctantly stepped forward, clasped their hands in a gesture of respect, and bowed to Qiu Tianyun, saying, "Greetings, Grandpa Qiu."
Qiu Tianyun squinted at Yang Cui and had to admit that Yang Cui was indeed remarkable and didn't look like someone from the countryside at all.
Such poise is something even noble ladies of Kyoto might not be able to match.
