Juniors Go First

At the Lunar New Year, the visits follow a fixed direction. A Spring Festival guide in The Paper states the rule: “When paying New Year calls, the younger generation must first pay New Year calls to their elders and wish them long life and good health.” The elders may then give the younger ones yasuiqian, the lucky money prepared in advance.
