WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“You shouldn't have brought someone who doesn't belong here to witness our private issues.”
💡 Cultural Insight: In-group Boundary and Domestic Privacy (家丑不可外扬)

Chinese culture strictly demarcates family members from outsiders ('外人'); exposing internal disputes to non-relatives is seen as a severe breach of boundary and loss of collective face.
