Don't Answer Honestly! How to Survive "Rude" Chinese Relatives (2026 Guide) (Ep10 - HSK 3-4 Podcast)

Did you just tell your Auntie exactly how much you earn? 🛑 Answering honestly isn't polite - it's a trap! 💸 📥 Free Full Transcript: https://chineseunmuted.org/ep10 That is exactly the disaster Yun Yun nearly faced today! In Chinese culture, the Reunion Dinner isn't just a meal—it is an interrogation. Answering a simple "How much do you earn?" (工资 - Gōngzī) honestly can lead to two disasters: either they look down on you, or they ask to borrow money! 📉 But the traps don't stop there. While a Mainland relative might expect you to "Humblebrag" (凡尔赛) about your new car, doing the same in Taiwan might just get you labeled as "clueless" (白目)! 🙄 Hosts Kevin and Yun Yun dissect the "Social Warfare" of the Spring Festival 🧨. Learn why "Lying Flat" (躺平) is the ultimate defense against buying a house, why you should leave your love life to "Fate" (随缘), and the secret "Tai Chi" method to dodge any rude question! 🥋 In this episode, you will learn: The "Salary" Trap: Why telling the truth about your income is a lose-lose situation (and the specific "Tai Chi" phrase to fix it). 🤐 The "Marriage" Defense: How to use the philosophy of "Suíyuán" (随缘) to stop Aunties from setting you up on blind dates. 🧘‍♀️ The "Asset" Checkmate: How to use "Involution" (内卷) and "Lying Flat" (躺平) to explain why you don't own a home yet. 🏠 Mainland vs. Taiwan Nuance: The clash between "Humblebragging" (Versailles) vs. "Polite Evasion" (Tai Chi). 🇨🇳🇹🇼 The "Bear Child" Attack: How to handle bratty kids destroying your room without screaming at them! 🧸 Navigate the Spring Festival (春节 - Chūnjié) without losing your mind. Kevin and Yun Yun help you speak fluent, culturally smart Mandarin that impresses locals rather than shocking them. ✨ Timestamps: 00:00 🎬 Intro: The Reunion Dinner Nightmare 😱 02:14 The Salary Trap: Why do they ask?
