Hello everyone!

Manchu Folk Customs (7)

Etiquette (1)

Manchu is a nation that attaches great importance to etiquette, especially to its elders. In the past, both official families and ordinary families had the rule of "being in a daze in the morning".

Go to the elder's house to clean up the fight every morning, and you must go to the elder's house to say hello and lie down at night.

When the younger generation goes to the elder's house, although they are guests, they can only sit next to them. The younger generation can't sit with their elders, but stand with their hands hanging down. If there is an elder riding a horse or riding a sedan chair in Lu Yu, you should dismount and get off the sedan chair to wait for him and greet him. He can only follow his elders.

When you go out and go home, you must first tell the elders of the elderly and please them.

When you go home at night, you must also visit your elders' home before you can go back to the main room to rest.

During the Chinese New Year, the younger generation of men and women should kowtow to their elders and pay a New Year call after getting up. Most of Manchu bank gifts are concentrated during the Spring Festival.

Good morning, dear!

Etiquette (2)

Girls (Gege) will also go to their elders' homes to salute and greet after going home, and they will also be "sleepy in the morning" every day. A common ceremony for flag-bearer women is called greeting. The action of seeking peace is: head is slightly lower, hands are empty, naturally slide down along both sides of legs, and knees are slightly bent.

Gege wants to give grandma, mom, grandparents or other female close relatives a "chest-lifting ceremony", which means intimacy.

Equal generations, regardless of gender, embrace each other with a "shoulder hug".

Close brothers and sisters have a "face gift" when they meet, that is, covering their shoulders.

Friends rub their shoulders when they meet, that is, touch each other's shoulders.

Close relatives of the same generation have not seen each other for a long time. When they meet, they kneel down to each other with the "Long Kneeling Ceremony".

When you haven't seen your close relatives and elders for a long time, you will use "kneeling on one knee, paying back with courtesy", and your peers will also use this meeting etiquette for their eldest brother. The "waist-hugging ceremony" is only applicable to men.
