What is the wedding custom in Ankang, Shaanxi?

Today, I would like to introduce the marriage customs in Guanzhong, Shaanxi to my friends. Maybe many people don't know the difference between Shaanxi and Guanzhong. Shaanxi's territory is irregular in shape, long from north to south and short from east to west. Shaanxi can be divided into three parts, namely, northern Shaanxi, Guanzhong and southern Shaanxi. The general boundaries are as follows: National Highway 309 and the areas along it are called northern Shaanxi; Their cities are Yan 'an, Yulin, Shenmu and Tongchuan. South of National Highway 309, north of Qinling Mountain becomes Guanzhong. Their cities are Xi, Xianyang, Baoji and Weinan. The south of Qinling Mountain is called southern Shaanxi; Their cities are Hanzhong, Shangluo and Ankang. Just like the north and south of our country, it is generally bounded by the Yangtze River. //In fact, even in Guanzhong, the marriage customs are different, but they are basically the same. Here I would like to introduce the marriage customs in Xianyang countryside. //The whole day of marriage can be divided into three parts: marrying the bride and inviting guests to dinner. Make trouble in the bridal chamber. //The wedding procession has been waiting outside the door early in the morning (generally, the number of vehicles in the wedding procession is odd, and there are floats, so the groom and his entourage can only go straight to the bride's house after getting on the bus. The departure time is usually around 6 or 7 o'clock, that is, in the early morning. You must set off firecrackers before you leave. First, good luck. Secondly, it means informing the public (that the wedding parade has started). Fireworks are set off at the bride's door to show that (the wedding team has arrived). At this time, the bride's relatives and friends will close the door, and the second door will not open, waiting for the important person. When the motorcade arrives at the bride's door, it will start trying to open the door. Just kidding, my mother-in-law will open the door, give it to people, make a mess, and then the door will open. Say something nice. Opening the door is noisy. On the other hand, the simple breakfast prepared by the bride's family has already started. Wedding guests eat a few side dishes and drink a few glasses of wine, just waiting for the bride to open the door and get on the float. Usually, the bride is carried on the bus by the groom, and of course, there are also people who walk on the bus. In some places, there may be a saying that the bride never touches the ground from going out to entering the door. The bride here has received it, just go home and enter the door, and the motorcade returns to the groom. The firecrackers were loud, and people were everywhere at the door. Brides usually don't get off easily, and it's important, and it may still be the kind of 500 yuan 1000 yuan. At this time, the groom's friends are already ready, some are stuck at the door, some are smirking and waiting to take off the groom's shoes, and some are waiting to sprinkle fireworks. When the bride gets off the bus, there will be a small fire at the door. It means that life is thriving. Nowadays, girls are very smart, and they only jump when the fire is small or even gone. What's more, the groom just holds it until the bride sits on the bed in the new house. OK, the wedding reception is over. //According to local customs, relatives and friends of the bride's family will come to the groom's house to hold a banquet, so they will leave soon after the wedding reception. Usually, the bride's more expensive or difficult dowry items will be taken to the groom's house in advance (such as washing machine, etc.). ), and until the wedding day, they were all empty cartons. Basically, the wedding furniture in Guanzhong is bought by the groom's family, and the electrical appliances are bought by the bride's family. You must be curious. What's the use of holding empty cartons? This has to mention another custom. One of the eight eccentrics in Guanzhong is the band on the handkerchief head, which was left by our ancestors a long time ago. Quot Play with a handkerchief &; Quot Our custom is that when the car to pick up our parents comes, there will be a dowry (including empty cartons) and everyone will go together &; Quot Catch & Then, before lunch, the bride's family will redeem it with a handkerchief. In the meantime, there are many people to talk to and have a good time. It's hard to say, they can only go to the scene to feel the atmosphere. Before dinner, the bride will change clothes and go to the toilet (in fact, she has to go through a door to come back). At this time, the groom's brother (not her own brother, but also other friends) will take it. Quot Diligence &; Quot after picking up chopsticks, you have to turn over the dishes. There are three bowls in the big plate, one is steamed bread (meaning: you will never be short of food), the other is meat (meaning: you will never be short of money) and the other is money (meaning: you will never be short of money). Some troublemakers just put some oil on the bottom of the bowl, but they can't turn it up with their hands. Of course not too slippery. Toast. See the guests off. //make a bridal chamber. //It can basically start at sunset. Actually, it's nothing. Let's have a look at the new house and talk and laugh. There are many young people, and all kinds of tricks emerge one after another. //If you have classmates and friends from Shaanxi, you can also go to see the excitement. It's interesting. I married several classmates and friends before I got married.
