Wooh a little refresher. The guys on the trees were the Feng guards, they were seen on ch 71 and introduced at ch 73. They're like the elite guards of the family and follows who ever has the tokens, which her grandfather gave to her.

@Kiriyume Thanks to you and the team for the upload. Just a minor quibble. The cousin - brother/sister feels a bit redundant if translated in this manner. Might provide more context if translated as older/ younger cousin (of c barring the peeps with unclear genders) .
But yah appreciate all the uploads :)

Just some trivia
albeit a bit of an oversimplification.

In chinese, our familial titles gives information of whether your relative is maternally/ paternally related as well as if they are older or younger than oneself or one’s parents.
In this case the “kids” are referring to each other with táng mèi (paternally-related-cousin younger-sister) and táng xiōng (a more formal address for a paternally-related-cousin older brother). So Ghost Doc is being verbally respectful (that or sarcastic). I only call my older guy cousins táng gē .

System is a bit of a pain in formal? family reunions trying to remember all the relative ages of all the relatives at the same time. But it does provide some quick useful context for the who’s who moreso than the second-cousin-twice-removed stuff and definitely when both systems are combined.
Bonus: yup all asian languages look like squiggly characters to me as well, so props to all the translators that aren’t translating from their mother tongue.

Edit:punctuation

The perv's father talks of being family but where was that when his son was trying to jump her bones?
