Whenever someone gifts you something, just say “Thank you very much” and accept the gift. Don’t do the “are you sure” or “oh no you shouldn’t have” dance.
Lmao that’s every Chinese New Year ever. The red packet exchange is just so awkward and weird (IMO) and completely pointless.
Like Family A’s parents gives Family B’s kid $100 then Family B’s parents give Family A’s two children each $50 (totalling $100). Then when they go home, the parents “ask” (read: demand) the kid to give them the money for “safekeeping”. So… like… wtf is the point. This is why I don’t like the idea of “tradition”, conservatives be weird af. Like, at one point, I just stop caring when they give it to me and I’m like “just give it to mom” lol.
Red Packet exchange is just glorified Money PingPong games.
