What are the customs of wedding night in ancient traditional society?

China's traditional wedding night custom;

1. Set a happy day

According to the bride's physiological cycle, please ask Mr. Feng Shui to choose an auspicious day as the wedding date. In this case, the man usually looks for the most famous local Mr. Feng Shui to calculate the best wedding date according to the birth dates of both men and women. The family will bring Mr. Wang some alcohol, tobacco and snacks to express their gratitude.

After setting the date, the husband's family entrusted the matchmaker to bring some gifts to the woman's house to deliver the date. If the woman's family receives this day, the big day will be fixed. If the date is returned by the woman's family, it means that there is something wrong with this date, which is not good and needs to be rescheduled. It is not unlucky to retire, mainly because this day coincides with the menstrual period of girls. At this time, the man's parents will bring gifts and ask Mr. Feng Shui to set a date again. The date set by Mr. Feng Shui must be about 15 days later or earlier than last time.

2. Make trouble for the couple.

This is a "warm-up" before living with a couple. In ancient times, husband and wife may never have met each other before sharing the same room. Skin blind date at night may be unnatural, which may affect their sex life. Although the bride has been told some rules before becoming a monk, especially after entering the bridal chamber, she has to show the girl the "bottom of the closet", that is, several pairs of "yellow paintings" carved with different materials, some of which are ivory and almost bamboo, so that the bride has a basic psychological preparation.

After entering the bridal chamber, the bridegroom's relatives and friends were in a hurry, making the couple do all kinds of intimate, hidden but targeted actions. Dispel the strangeness and shyness of the bride and groom. To pave the way for that exciting moment, this is the "foreplay" that everyone participates in together. Making trouble in the bridal chamber mainly depends on the bride, who can neither readily agree to do the program nor stubbornly refuse to do it, so we should be careful.

3. The woman recovered after going home for three days.

On the third day of marriage, the bride will be picked up by her brother or younger brother for three days. Then the groom will pick it up. On the surface, it means that the bride has followed her parents since childhood. After leaving home this time, she was afraid of missing her family and wanted to go back to see her parents.

In fact, at that time, brides couldn't go out, and most of them were virgins. Virgin's first night, hymen is damaged, which is more painful. The groom is in the prime of life and no longer knows how to cherish the fragrance and jade. Everyone is worried that the bride can't stand it, so they take her back to "heal" in the name of missing her parents.
