Do friends and friends use red envelopes to worship the New Year?
Just now, after work, I didn't leave immediately, and I talked to my colleague in Shanghai about the New Year's greeting. He put the cigarette box on the table, and it was the package of Red Tower Hill. How much money, I don't know, I don't feel for cigarettes. I immediately asked him what good cigarettes his daughter had bought him for the New Year. He said it was two Hua Tsai (Soft China). I asked him again what good wine he had bought, and he said it was Wuliangye, and I didn't understand alcohol or tobacco. Anyway, there was no fart idleness, so I continued to ask him how many red envelopes he had sent, and he said that it was about 20,000, and there was a nephew dog for 8,000. He was a little surprised to see me, and then said, 8000 is actually not much, and there is a red envelope of 80000! I'm from the country, I've never seen the world, I'm shocked! I asked him how much money his daughter had paid for the New Year? He said that the younger generations generally only buy gifts for the elders to pay new year's greetings, not money. I asked him with some incomprehension: Then don't you lose? He said:
"Now it's popular to nibble on the old, and it's definitely a loss."
I laughed.
I asked him again, which elders in Shanghai should pay homage to?
He said that the elders have to worship, aunts, aunts, aunts, aunts, uncles, as long as the elders have to worship, anyway, there are red envelopes to earn, the generation does not need to worship the New Year.
It's a little different from my hometown. What we must go to in our hometown is the family of the old man, the family of my grandparents, the family of my uncle and the family of my brother-in-law. The aunt's family and aunt's family do not need to go to the New Year's greeting, and the uncle's family can also not go to the New Year's. Another colleague from Henan said that we are son-oriented, and I feel it. A married sister needs to pay homage to her younger brother, whether she has a nephew or not, while her younger brother does not need to pay homage to her sister's family. Customs are customs, and they are not made by a few people on their own initiative.
Although Shanghai is a high-income city, I still feel that the red envelopes of Shanghainese are a bit large, but unfortunately I am not a nephew of Shanghainese. In comparison, the red envelopes in Guangdong are very small, and it is said that children can now receive 5 yuan in cash red envelopes, and red envelopes of dozens of yuan are very common.
After all, our Jiangxi is a place where dynasties are rich in readers, a good way of moderation, impartiality, and a hundred or two hundred red envelopes for children. Several red envelopes of my New Year's package are one hundred, sent two hundred on WeChat, and the other party confiscated it, I don't know if it is my less or more? Confiscation is confiscation, it's hard to make money, right?
