Yi-jun: Don't we need to give a white envelope with money for the family, though?
Holly: No. People give plates of food. The food is brought to the reception or in the weeks following.
Yi-jun: At the reception?
Holly: That's after the funeral. That way the family doesn't need to think about cooking while they're mourning.
Yi-jun: Then you don't take anything with you for a viewing?
Holly: You can bring flowers if you want, but you usually have those delivered.

开车去葬仪社的路上
怡君：那我们不需要包白包给家属吗?
荷莉：不用。大家都会带一盘食物过去。食物会带到接待会上，或者葬礼过后的几周之内，都可以带菜去给丧家。
怡君：拿到接待会?
荷莉：那是在葬礼之后。这样子家属在哀恸之余，就不必分神去准备食物了。
怡君：那去瞻仰遗容时，什么都不用带吗?
荷莉：你要带花去也行，不过通常会请人送过去
