Chu Thanh Huyen gave out stacks of 100k VND as lucky money but was still called stingy; her attitude was shocking.

Chu Thanh Huyen became the center of discussion when she shared a clip about the custom of giving lucky money during Tet (Lunar New Year) in her family. On her personal page, she appeared with a stack of 100,000 VND banknotes in her hand, giving lucky money to both children and adults in her family.

However, the seemingly simple clip quickly sparked controversy on social media. Some netizens argued that, given her current financial situation, especially as the wife of a famous football player, Chu Thanh Huyền should have given a larger sum of money as a New Year's gift. Some even bluntly commented: "With that much money, she should have given 500,000 VND."

This viewpoint immediately met with much opposition. The majority of viewers argued that giving lucky money is a traditional custom signifying blessings at the beginning of the year, symbolizing wishes for health, peace, and good fortune. The spiritual value is what matters most, and lucky money should not be turned into a measure of financial wealth or social status.

Many comments defended Chu Thanh Huyen, emphasizing that the amount of money given as a New Year's gift is a matter of personal choice and financial means. "People are overcomplicating it; 100,000 VND is already a lot. Giving lucky money during Tet is for good fortune, not for business, so why be so toxic?" one user commented. Another expressed: "Giving money to both adults and children, roughly 20 relatives, 100,000 VND to each person, and still being criticized – I don't understand what would be considered fair."

Many viewers of the video also commented that Chu Thanh Huyen's family is quite large. If you calculate the total amount of money given as New Year's gifts, 100,000 VND per person is actually a considerable expense. Furthermore, in traditional culture, giving lucky money (lì xì) usually means "receiving blessings," symbolizing a smooth beginning, rather than reflecting wealth or poverty.

Some neutral opinions suggest that 100,000 VND is appropriate for close relatives, while 500,000 VND or more could be reserved for exceptionally close relationships. However, many also regret that this beautiful Tet custom is increasingly scrutinized and judged. "It's just for good luck at the beginning of the year, but every year someone gets criticized for giving only 50,000 or 100,000 VND. It's losing its meaning because everyone is so concerned about finances," one comment that received many likes stated.

Besides the controversy surrounding the amount of money, some argue that Chu Thanh Huyen's frequent sharing of her personal life on social media inadvertently creates more controversy. As someone with influence due to her association with Quang Hai, every action she takes is easily noticed and judged. Some netizens suggest that she should be more selective about the content she posts, as the online environment always has both fans and anti-fans.

In fact, this isn't the first time Chu Thanh Huyen has been embroiled in controversy over her personal life posts. Previously, just before Tet (Lunar New Year), she attracted attention when she expressed her opinion: "Since I'm married now, and being married naturally means following my husband. So this year I will still celebrate Tet at my husband's house." This statement quickly generated two opposing viewpoints.

Some argue that this viewpoint is one-sided and could hurt the feelings of the wife's family. They believe Tet (Lunar New Year) is a time for family reunions, and every parent wants their children to be together. The default assumption that a woman must "follow her husband's family" after marriage is no longer compatible with modern thinking, as many families now flexibly divide their time between both sides of the family.

Conversely, many people expressed sympathy for Chu Thanh Huyen. They argued that, given the specific circumstances, her staying to support her parents-in-law while her husband was busy or away was a reasonable act and demonstrated filial piety. Visiting her parents' home could have been arranged at another time to satisfy both parties.

Despite being repeatedly embroiled in controversy, Chu Thanh Huyen has chosen to remain silent in the face of negative opinions. She hasn't responded to negative comments or offered lengthy explanations. Instead, Quang Hai's wife continues to share everyday moments with her family and enjoy the Lunar New Year holiday.
