Who knows what the "six rites" in traditional weddings mean?

The content of six gifts includes six aspects, which are actually six procedures for the establishment of marriage: one is to accept gifts, that is, the man sends a bride price to the woman to propose marriage. The second is to ask the name, that is, the man's matchmaker asks the woman's name and date of birth, and then divines good or bad luck in the ancestral hall. Only when the result is good can we proceed to the next step, and the intense one will stop here. The third is Najib, who decided to get married after divination. Fourth, the man sent someone to send the bride price to the woman's house. Fifth, invitation, that is, asking the woman to set a wedding date. Sixth, kiss and greet. On the wedding day, the man must meet the woman in person, and then the man will go back first and meet him outside the door. Every procedure, the man should send a wild goose, because the wild goose is a migratory bird, so it is punctual and trustworthy, the wild goose is faithful, and the widowed one is single. It turns out that officials send lambs, doctors send geese and scholars send pheasants. Later, they were all unified into geese. If you want to send more goods, you can send more when you receive them. Other procedures to send geese are only symbolic. The marriage procedure of Six Rites is very complicated, ordinary people have no time and financial resources to bear, and only officials and nobles strictly abide by it. However, folklore also uses this as a reference to merge some procedures, for example, the first and second can be completed at one time, and the third and fourth can also be merged. The folk wedding customs can still see the influence of the Six Rites in the Western Zhou Dynasty. After receiving the bride from her husband's family according to the "Six Rites", a formal wedding ceremony should be held-it is most important to pay homage to the bride and tie the knot. Visiting the church, also known as heaven and earth, the new couple worships the god of heaven and earth, seeks the righteousness of human relations, worships ancestors, respects relatives, worships flowers and candles, worships couples, and the woman becomes a member of the man's family. Combination is to divide a jar into two spoonfuls and combine them into a container. Gourd is gourd, and the couple uses it to pour wine and gargle, divide it into two pieces, and connect the handles with thread, which symbolizes that the two will be integrated because of the wedding. Bitter, used to hold wine, the wine becomes bitter, gargle with bitter wine, which means that husband and wife should share joys and sorrows. There are etiquette after marriage, such as the bride meeting her in-laws the next morning and cooking in the kitchen the third day after going through the door. After marriage, the son-in-law will go back to her mother's house with the bride and meet her parents and relatives. This is called Huimen, and she will officially become a female son-in-law.
