I have a friend who wants to marry a girl from Shaanxi, and I don't know the customs there.

The marriage custom in Shaanxi has been that men marry women since ancient times, and it is a great blessing to have a wedding in the bridal chamber. In the old days, Zhidan people paid attention to the right match, parents' orders and matchmakers' words. When men and women don't meet, it's like selling cats in their pockets. There are some bad habits, such as nipple kissing, early marriage, child bride, buying and selling marriage, which have destroyed people's physical and mental health and caused many marriage tragedies. After liberation, marital autonomy was implemented. Generally speaking, a good relationship between men and women requires routine procedures such as engagement, business negotiation, registration, marriage and return to China.

The engagement is generally informed by the introducer, and the two sides ask each other questions to understand the age, date of birth, personality, appearance, culture, occupation, family style, etc. If both parties are willing, the man will choose an auspicious day, bring a bride price and hold an engagement ceremony with the matchmaker at the woman's house; In business, the man's parents and matchmaker bring a sheep, alcohol, tobacco, clothes and bride price to the woman's house, and the woman invites the main members of her family and family to attend. When the ceremony arrives and the money is enough, we will appoint a wedding time. Registration, each holding a letter of introduction to go through the marriage formalities in the township government where the woman is located, and get a marriage certificate; In the past, a donkey or a horse with red stripes and red flowers was usually prepared for marriage, commonly known as "hard horse". In recent years, some Sichuan roads and towns with convenient transportation have also used tractors or cars to greet their relatives. Married people are composed of 5-7 people, such as the married woman's mother-in-law (the groom's sister-in-law or aunt), Lama (the groom's brother or nephew), agent, box delivery man, hand blower, etc.

Before leaving, the groom should get on the horse, which is called "pressing the horse". When he went to the woman's house, he asked many times his relatives to give him away, collect the boxes, that is, the accompanying items, and disperse the boxes, that is, the woman, one man and two women, and set the amount of money. Finally, he will hold a ceremony to mount his horse and listen to suona and firecrackers. Walk into the village yard at dusk. In the light of torches and firecrackers, the couple dismounted, worshipped the heavens and the earth, carried Baodou into the bridal chamber, and then walked around the kang for a week. When you choose a position, you let it go, saying that you want to "step on the four corners", the bride wants to "sit on the bill" and drink "closed wine" for other people's relatives. In the bridal chamber, you should kowtow to the couple and turn over the bed. Finally, the most wonderful bridal chamber, fun and fancy. Until the couple are exhausted, people who have sex with each other will leave when they are happy.
