💡 Cultural Insight: Consulting on major matters

In Chinese family ethics, spouses and immediate family members are expected to discuss major matters together ('da shi gong shang'). Making major decisions unilaterally (such as quitting a job, buying property, or making large investments) is often viewed as a sign of distrust and disrespect toward one's partner or family.
