What's the second one say Dark? Google translate is incomprehensible.

It's an old, old idiom.

Basically, it's a wish that you'll get filthy rich.

It is, at least in Chinese thinking (and sorry for being so many days off the boards)

Red is HUGE to them. Everything is red, with gold, at weddings and everything tied to New Year.
Saying someone is 'really red' is to say that they are famous or well-liked.

So if a Chinese person is really angry, obliviously pointing out their face is really red might actually have a calming effect because they'll think you mean their face is famous or well-liked? :rolleyes:

Um…
Next time opportunity arises, I'll try that and let you know.
Or my next-of-kin will pass on the findings.
