The incomprehensible wedding customs in the countryside

Marriage is a big event, especially in rural areas, because its concept is still relatively traditional, so it pays special attention to some traditional customs. However, some customs are too old-fashioned and have a strong color of feudal superstition. Some customs make people laugh, while others are surprising. So, today, Bian Xiao will take stock of some rural customs and habits for everyone, and let everyone know about some incomprehensible marriage customs and taboos in rural areas.

1. Aunt and sister-in-law can't see the bride off when she leaves home.

In many rural areas, when the bride leaves home, her aunt and sister-in-law cannot see her off. Because "Gu" and "Lonely" have the same pronunciation, and "Sister-in-law" and "Sweep" have the same pronunciation, it is unlucky for the couple to bid farewell to their relatives. Although this statement is groundless, people themselves will be careful to avoid it.

Step 2 be happy

Rural areas pay more attention to the choice of "auspicious day", and marriage will choose a good day. This often happens when someone else is getting married, which is called "Xi rushes to Xi". I think this will offset each other's blessings. At this time, I will throw a small object such as a red handkerchief ornament or a coin at each other, and some places will set off firecrackers. Ask the old people in the village to know that this is mutual congratulations.

3. Pregnant women don't attend the wedding

In rural areas, pregnant women are generally forbidden to attend weddings, and even in some places there is a saying that "the bride will not be successful in her life when she meets her pregnant mother". In fact, this statement is for the sake of pregnant women The wedding scene is chaotic, and it is dangerous to be afraid of pregnant women not paying attention. In addition, children should try to restrain themselves when they get married, and it is also considered unlucky to cry at other people's weddings.

Visiting the church is always in the evening.

The countryside still retains the custom of worshipping heaven and earth, and the sun will not be seen when worshipping heaven and earth. Unlike TV series, when worshipping heaven and earth is mysterious, it is usually chosen around midnight, and outsiders will not participate.

Don't drop in on your honeymoon.

In rural areas, most people are taboo about honeymoon for the New Year, so there is also a saying in some places that "honeymoon is not visited". I think it's unlucky for others, especially those who have relatives and friends of the elderly. More importantly, I won't visit them on my honeymoon until a month later. No one can tell the specific reason, but everyone abides by it.

Traditional customs are preserved in the countryside. With the development, many things seem unsatisfactory, but when in Rome, do as the Romans do, even if you feel disgusted, you can't violate other people's taboos.

6. On the bride's wedding day, her feet can't touch her parents' land: on the wedding day, her feet can't touch her parents' land, that is to say, her feet can't touch the soil, so the sedan chair must be carried by her brother or younger brother.

7. Grab the mother's home: Many places are trying to grab the mother's home and bring it to the husband's family; Because in feudal times, going back to your mother's house was not as casual as it is now, and it might take a long time to go back, so it was also an idea. Of course, there is also the implication of taking my husband's family back to farm and expecting a bumper harvest every year.

8. The custom of the bride's family crying on the wedding day: it is the custom of the bride's family crying to send the bride off on the wedding day, which means to be a good person when going to her husband's house in the future and suffer hardships in the past. And there is also a reluctance in it.

9. The bride must be hungry: in other words, the bride can't eat her mother's family's meal that day, but can only wait for her husband's family to take it back.

10, the groom can only wear old clothes when he receives relatives: he can only wear old clothes when he goes to his mother-in-law's house, and he can only put on new clothes when he goes home; Embarrassed is that many times guests don't know who the groom is, haha, this is the most proud time in life, and many grooms say they don't understand.
