What is engagement? What is the significance of engagement? What are the etiquette for engagement?

Engagement, also called betrothal, according to China folk custom, usually before marriage, there is an engagement ceremony: signing an engagement, exchanging gifts, or setting up a matchmaker. However, according to the current laws of our country, engagement is not a necessary procedure before marriage, and marriage without engagement does not lose its validity. Legally speaking, an agreement has been concluded, but unilaterally unwilling to perform the contract without the consent of the other party constitutes a "breach of the agreement", and the consequence is that it must bear the liability for damages. The liability for damages is divided into the following two types: 1, property damages. In other words, you can ask for monetary compensation. 2. Compensation for mental damage. For example, in the consolation money, the amount is measured according to the social status, economic ability and education level of both parties. Breaking an engagement is different from breaking a promise. The violation of engagement is unilateral violation, and the dissolution of engagement can be divided into unilateral dissolution and bilateral dissolution. The dissolution of both parties means that both parties agree to dissolve the engagement, whether to claim compensation or not, and then know each other clearly. Unilateral dissolution must be based on reasons stipulated by law, such as the engagement or remarriage of the other party, before the engagement can be unilaterally dissolved. In addition, if one party is declared "forbidden to manage labor", that is, the individual is irrational, or mentally weak, or has sexual relations with others, this situation can make the other party consider unilaterally terminating it. Legal unilateral dissolution of the engagement does not violate the engagement, nor does it bear legal liability for compensation. It depends on the pain. Engagement candle engagement is also called "Wen Ding", which used to be called "Naji" and "Zheng Na". Although engagement is not as complicated as marriage, traditional customs still attach great importance to it. Both men and women need to prepare some gifts. The process is like this: the groom finishes the family sacrifice at home first, and then goes to the woman's house with the matchmaker to get married. Get off the bus and enter the door, and the red envelope will not run away! Gong, commonly known as "Mr. Boxer", is responsible for designating the gift-giving bank. Tribute officials must control the number of people (even number), vehicles (six or twelve vehicles), engagement money (even number and properly wrapped in red paper) and six gifts. Before the family sacrifice leaves for the woman's home, the man first carries out the ancestor worship ceremony at home. At this time, he presented the "box cake" or pie used in family sacrifice to his ancestors, and told them that he would go to a virgin's home to hire and ask his ancestors to bless the happiness of this marriage. After becoming a monk, the tribute officer is responsible for loading all the bride price into the car, and the groom and the matchmaker go to the woman's house together. Before the red envelopes leave, Gong Li Palace should not only manage the number of people, cars and bride price, but also remind the groom to prepare more red envelopes. For example, the uncle who came to open the groom's car door, the "pressing table" and the six accompanying relatives all need to prepare the bride's ceremony, the bride's new friend who washed the water and the gift of the matchmaker. How to hire "eat rice and marry a good husband" for a lifetime, and there must be rice cakes in the six gifts. Why prepare four-color sugar? It symbolizes the sweetness of newlyweds and the meaning of growing old together. The bride price represents not only the man's gratitude to the woman's parents, but also the man's face. Therefore, most of them are willing to get a glamorous and decent appearance, and each dowry also contains the symbolic meaning of seeking good luck and increasing perfection. Bridal gifts are usually divided into six simple gifts or twelve exquisite gifts. The amount of bride price is arranged according to personal budget. At the same time, we might as well ask the matchmaker for the advice of the woman's parents to achieve the best of both worlds. Marriage between men and women officially debuted! Firecrackers sounded and the married man arrived! On that day, ancestors should be worshipped, tea should be served, and rings holding hands with each other should be worn until they are old. After the gift, how does the woman return the gift? China people always pay attention to "reciprocity". After the man gives the gift, the woman should also prepare the gift, but she can't let the man go home empty-handed.
