The Joy of Lì Xì: Red Envelopes During Tết

Total: 80 words

During Tết, we give red envelopes called lì xì.

Children feel very happy when they receive these envelopes.

Inside, there are new banknotes.

It is not about how much money is inside.

It is a symbol of good luck and prosperity.

When you get a lì xì, you should use both hands.

You should wait to open it until the giver leaves.

This shows respect and gratitude.

This tradition brings warmth and happiness to our family during the New Year.
