Li Mei looks in her desk. She looks behind the curtains. She looks under the bed. Where is her red envelope?
Li Mei says hello to her pet bird. “Happy New Year!” she says. “Have you seen my red envelope?”
Li Mei looks into Lily’s bedroom. “Happy New Year!” she says. “Have you seen my red envelope?”
“Did you look under your pillow? That’s where I found mine!” Lily holds up her red envelope.

Li Mei’s father is making breakfast in the kitchen. “Happy New Year, Mei Mei!” he says.
“Happy New Year, Daddy!” says Li Mei. “Have you seen my red envelope?”
“Of course I have!” he says. “Should I give you a clue?”
“Yes, please!” says Li Mei. “I looked everywhere!”
“Well, you might sit on it,” says Dad.
“Oh!” says Li Mei. She looks on the chairs. She looks on the sofa. She looks on the beds. She even looks on the toilet! Where is her red envelope?
Li Mei goes back to the kitchen. “I can’t find it!” she says. She sits down on a chair. Something feels strange. She stands up. Li Mei puts her hand into the back pocket of her jeans. She pulls out her red envelope!
“Here it is!” she says.
“I said you might sit on it!” says her father. “Happy New Year, Mei Mei!”
