What are the rural customs?

1, the custom of praying for a long life.

Give birth to a baby name and hang a long life lock. Some babies in rural areas also have birth names, which mostly indicate longevity, such as "silver lock".

Whenever a child is born at the full moon, grandma will give the child a silver longevity lock, a collar, bracelets and anklets to wear. The longevity lock is engraved with the word longevity on the back and the word "long life" on the front, with a silver necklace. There are also silver bells on bracelets and anklets.

Kill pigs, laba garlic, laba porridge, steam annual dry food, make tofu, sweep dust, quit cooking stoves, write Spring Festival couplets, post money, cut window grilles, post New Year pictures, post Spring Festival couplets, erect lanterns, erect poles, drive away the poor and so on.

3. set off firecrackers in the new year.

Every year on New Year's Eve 1 1, people will set off firecrackers to welcome the New Year. There are long and short firecrackers, and long firecrackers mean a smoother coming year. Moreover, the visiting guests will set off firecrackers for him after the New Year's Day to show their congratulations and blessings.

4. Go back to your mother's house, and you can't share the same room with your husband.

In some rural areas, there is a custom that a married daughter can never share a room with her husband unless she has no brothers or younger brothers. Old people say that sharing a room with their parents will lead to poor families and people. I don't know if it makes sense, but it has become an established rule.

Generally, people with the same surname do not get married.

Generally speaking, most people in the village are people with the same surname, and people with the same surname are the people who gave birth to their surnames in the genealogy, so the same surname is a family, that is, brothers and sisters, and a family cannot marry. If you marry someone with the same surname, you will be gossiped by the villagers, and in serious cases you may be driven out of the village. Therefore, in some rural areas with this custom, there is probably no possibility of marrying someone with the same surname.
