Why is it that when a daughter gets married the family prepares a quilt?

This is why:

When a daughter gets married, her parents have to buy a quilt to give to her daughter: the quilt is known as the Heping quilt, which symbolizes that the couple will be able to have a happy marriage, peace and beauty, and full of children and grandchildren.

As a Chinese tradition, when a daughter gets married, the family should have something as a dowry, but nowadays, they usually take the money directly, and with the change of time, because material things can be bought everywhere, so they use cash directly, and this is what has changed with the change of time.

Before there was a tradition that the family should prepare quilts for the daughter's marriage, why is that? Let me help you analyze it?

First of all, from the family's attachment to the daughter, I think it is so, because the daughter was married to the in-laws, the parents thought of their daughters to eat bad, sleep bad, and not accustomed to the in-laws environment, after all, in their own home life for so many years, the new integration into a new family how will not be particularly easy, so in order to prepare for the well-being of their daughters will be prepared to do the dowry quilts, this is the 40, 50 years ago the tradition of it, now I'll help you analyze it? The tradition of the 50's, now I think in this material flying in the era will not have to send the quilt this said it, are directly buy, do people quite tired, a little guilty, now the girls are going where used to where, but also can not use so much, so, the world has changed?

This is the reason I think the preparation of quilts, in fact, is the dowry, but also our big Chinese tradition, I do not think there is no meaning, where there are outwardly married daughters also prepared dowry, so I do not think it is feasible, in fact, there is no need for a dowry, which is the female parents of their daughter's wishes, as long as the daughter is living a happy life on the good?

PS: Daughter happiness, is the parents of the most hoped for things, so for as a husband we should take good care of their wives, truly need!
