Other customs of the bed god

In some areas of China, there is also the custom of "fixing the bed", that is, putting a new bed in the bridal chamber a few days before the wedding; Its position should be determined according to the birthday, window position and god position of both men and women, and avoid being opposite to tables, cabinets and cupboards. You should choose an auspicious day to come to your bed. After you go to bed, you should worship your mother that night. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there was a custom of offering sacrifices to mothers in bed, which was described in the novel "The Story of Marriage to Wake the World" in the Qing Dynasty. The god of bed worship at the wedding hopes that the newlyweds will be inseparable and happy.
