The red envelopes in the Jiangzhe and Lu areas of Xia Country are famously generous, especially the New Year's money given to one's own children, often amounting to thousands later on.
Even at the dawn of the New Era, it wouldn't be too little.
Of course, it depends on the situation of each household.
For example, in a family like the Su family with relatively good conditions, Old Su gave Su Zelin 666, and Zhao Lixia got 368.
For other people's children, it might be less, but still a decent 68, 88, 108, or 168, depending on the situation. There are exceptions, like the two elders being generous with Qin Shiqing, who this year received the same treatment as Su Zelin, clearly seen as a future daughter-in-law.
Red envelopes at the beginning of the New Year are hard to refuse, and more so when given to one's own child.
"Boss Huang, thank you!" Su Jianjun quickly took out a red envelope in return, saying, "This is for Panpan, I wish her academic progress!"
