WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Song Qingsong probably never could have imagined in his wildest dreams that he'd end up being betrayed and kicked out by his own brother-in-law.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Xiao jiu zi (younger brother-in-law)

A wife's younger brother. Considered a close in-law in family networks, betrayal by such an intimate relative is often viewed as especially dramatic and ironic in social ethics.
