Qingqing: Hey! Huahua, are you home yet? Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, and everyone is heading home for the Chinese New Year. The high-speed train must be crowded, right?
Huahua: Qingqing, I’m home. I couldn’t book a ticket, so I stood all the way. The high-speed train station was packed!
Qingqing: That sucks! But being able to get together with family, gather around a hot pot and spend New Year’s Eve together is well worth it!
Huahua: What about you? Have you arrived home? How do you plan to spend tomorrow night?
Qingqing: I can only go back tomorrow morning. After the New Year’s Eve dinner, I’ll play mahjong and stay up late with my family, waiting for my parents to give me my lucky money! Hahaha!
Huahua: What? Are you still getting red envelopes from your parents? You’re working now; you should be giving them instead!
Qingqing: I will give them! But I’m not married yet, so I’m still considered a child and can receive red envelopes! The amount doesn’t matter; it’s just for good luck! Wishing you prosperity and a happy New Year!
Huahua: All right, all right! Thanks for not saying, “Wishing you prosperity, give me a red envelope!” See you next year!
