Dear Mommy & Uncle,
I've gotten the painting from uncle, it is so pretty! Thanks a lot, I'll take good care of it. Oh, I don't know that next year is the year of boar! I wish that everything will work even better & all of us will be healthy & happy. I have experienced great changes this year, fortunately, everything worked great. Indeed, time really flies by, & Christmas is around the corner. Though I can not be around this year, I still wish you all have a happy holiday. Mommy will come here soon, please take care of yourself! Also, please bring back my black jacket (along with that 3 quarter length velvet pant) Uncle, please take more rest. You was so toilsome throughout this year, I wish you all the best next year!
I had lunch with Ms Ng the day before. She bought a sweater for uncle, & she asked mommy to bring it back. For father's sweater, I probably will mail it to him, but I am not sure when he will get it. I am very busy recently, so I haven't seen Ah Ku for a while. Apart from being busy, I am also under great pressure at work. Though I keep telling myself to be calm & not to pay too much attention on others' praises, I still worry about my own performance. Indeed, I don't know if the outcome this time will be good or bad, so I am very worried. Ironically, as before, people have greater confidence on me than I do. Perhaps I have a "confident face". Anyway, I don't have other things to say, just hope that you're doing well. Lastly, please express my greeting to father.
Love, Lui Lui
(P.S: Don't forget father's red jacket & his little black cape)

忙，心理壓力也大~82年間 Busy & under great pressure
親愛的媽咪、舅舅：
舅舅的畫收到了，很靚，先謝謝，我會好好保留的，沒想到明年竟是豬年呢！希望一切更如意，也望我們一家安康順境，今年的轉變實在太大，幸而事事如願，時間真是不知不覺中溜過，又是聖誕在即，今年可不能和你們共渡，但願你們也有個舒逸的寒假，母親不日就到，一切可要小心，請將我的黑大衣也帶來（還有條三個骨絲絨褲）等等，舅父你自己可要多休息，這些日子可辛苦了你，但願你明年也行個大運。
前天和吳姑娘飲茶行街，她買了件毛衣給舅舅，托媽帶回給你，父親的毛衣我還是寄給他好了，但不知道他何時才收到呢？這陣子比較忙，故也未見過亞娟，除了忙之外，心理壓力也很大，雖然叫自己該平靜和不要聽別人的讚嘆，可是畢竟顧慮自己的表現，今次是禍是福，真是很擔心，如舊；很多時別人給予我的信心比我自己有的信心大，可能我就是有副有信心的面孔，暫時沒甚麼要寫，只望你們多多保重和問候父親。
祝快樂！ 囡囡上
(還有老豆的紅綿襖、小黑斗蓬)
