The sizes of red envelopes are:12k (11.5 * 22.5cm or 12*22cm), 20K(9* 17cm) and 20k (8.5 *1). Because the paper size and typesetting of each red envelope manufacturer are different, the specifications will be slightly different.

Red envelope culture

The red envelope culture has a long history. Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a small demon with black hands and white body, named Chong, who came out to harm people every New Year's Eve. It touched the sleeping child's head three times with its hand, and the child cried with fear. Then it had a fever, talked nonsense and became sick, turning the child into a fool. People are afraid that fetishism will harm children, so they sit up with lights on, which is called "fetishism". In Jiaxing, there is a family named Guan, and the husband and wife have a son in their later years, which is regarded as the apple of their eye.

On New Year's Eve, they are afraid that they will harm their children. They wrapped eight coppers in red paper, forced them to play until they fell asleep, and put them on pillows. In the middle of the night, when I touched the child's head, a light appeared on the child's pillow, and I ran away screaming. Mr. and Mrs. Guan told their neighbors about it, and it spread and became a household name. They follow the example of giving special money to their children, connecting the past and the future.
