is a small amount of money that can bring good fortune to the upcoming year. However, "li
xi" is not limited only on the first day, but can even last to the 9th or 10th day of Tet


Festival, and given when the adults first met the kids.


Besides the money, the tiny red envelope also has its own meaning. It represents the secrecy
and privacy to avoid comparison as adults want children to regard the money as the gift of
New Year, instead of being jealous of receiving less than other kids. The red color, the most
popular color appearing in Vietnamese festivals, signifies the prosperity and great luck
according to Asian’s beliefs.


In the morning of the first day of Lunar New Year, children and parents will visit


grandparents’ home, wishing for a happy new year and great health, showing respect and
gratitude, and giving gifts. After that, it is grandparents and adults’ turn to give children


lucky money to welcome their new age.
