Red Packets

Red packets are commonly used as gifts of money during special occasions such as weddings, birthdays, graduations, and holidays like Chinese New Year. They are given as a gesture of goodwill, hospitality, and blessings to the recipient. Red packets can also serve as a form of financial support or assistance during important life events or celebrations. For example, at weddings, the amount given in red packets is often intended to cover the cost of attendees and show goodwill towards the newlyweds.
