What's the custom of getting married in Daye?

Daye people, whose ancestral home is in western Jiangxi, have been influenced by the surrounding customs after a long history, while some customs are well preserved. Like the marriage of Daye people, it has always followed the custom of "crying marriage" of Tujia people in western Jiangxi.

Generally speaking, a girl won't go out to work for ten and a half months until she receives a notice from her husband about her wedding day. Instead, put a square table and ten bowls of tea in the boudoir, invite relatives and neighbors to sit around in turn and cry about their wedding songs.

Crying is regular: usually for three to five days, but also for ten and a half months. Its main content is to recall the relationship between mother and daughter, tell the bitterness of parting, thank parents for their upbringing, ask their brothers and sisters-in-law to take care of their elderly parents and teach their daughters to be human. Crying has melody and cadence, which is a very difficult art of combining crying and singing. Crying with modal particles such as "om", "man" and "alas" is sad and moving. Such as "crying sister": recalling the good times spent with my sister; Crying again (sound "yeah") mother: sue mother and daughter; Mothers cry for their daughters: they place their mother's care and expectation on their daughters.

The custom of crying for marriage has a long history, reflecting the true nature of the local people, and the daughter is about to leave home. Those crystal tears are my deep love for my mother and homeland, and the tears on my face are my daughter's lifelong advice and treasure. That kind of affection, only Daye people know.

Daily customs

Daye dialect belongs to the southern language family Gan dialect, which can be said to be one of the most difficult dialects in China, with many vowels. Daye proverb is an experiential language art about production and life, which is summarized by people in past dynasties in concise language. Proverbs can always accompany the development of history.

Daye people are hospitable. When guests come to the door, the host usually kills the chicken and entertains the guests with chicken noodles. There are several white "poached eggs" lying under the noodles. Faced with this bowl of delicious hot noodle soup, the guests' appetites opened up. Be careful not to eat a bowl upside down, but be sure to leave some soup, one or two eggs or chicken legs as a bowl. "

. If the guest puts down the empty bowl after eating, it shows that the host is stingy and makes the guest not full, which will of course embarrass the host.

This is a long-standing "bowl returning ceremony" in the local area. Returning to the bowl is the guest's gratitude and return to the host. However, the "returning ceremony" is generally limited to early and informal meals. If it's a dinner reception, guests don't have to worry about being hungry. The host must open the eggs with clean chopsticks, pull out the drumsticks and insist on persuading the guests to eat more. At this time, guests don't need to "return to the bowl". In Daye rural areas, there are also rituals and customs such as returning invitations, paying homage and returning to the countryside. Daye's non-governmental contacts are polite, and the pastoral style is simple and natural. Daye's "Hui Bowl Ceremony" involves the content of dietary taboos in folk customs. China is a country that values customs and taboos, and pays special attention to some words and deeds. Taboos are norms that prohibit people from doing certain behaviors or words and deeds. It is actually strengthening and maintaining the boundaries of various cultural categories, and it is forbidden for people to blur or cross these boundaries at will.

Third,

Birth custom: "washing three dynasties".

Daye's birth custom is also very interesting, taking the baby's "washing three dynasties" as an example. Folklore in Daye area

Said that the child is for the empress, and after the child is born, she will come to see it three days later. If the children clean up,

Clean, people drink wedding banquets and eat long noodles, which shows that this family loves children, and she is relieved. Otherwise,

She thinks the family doesn't like children and should take them away. So people are afraid to send their children away and take their children away.

People drink and eat noodles to celebrate.

This is what is commonly called.

The origin of "washing three dynasties"

On the day of washing the Three Dynasties, the children's parents will invite several tables to entertain relatives and friends for three dynasties meals, and will also invite villagers to eat "long noodles".

Long noodles are longevity noodles, which means it is easy to raise children after eating long noodles. Invited guests are usually brought up.

Eight or 10 red egg, kept shouting: "Congratulations! Congratulations!

"

There are some interesting actions and sayings to "wash the three dynasties" for children. After the midwife washes the child, she should pat the child's ass and say:

"If I pat you a few times, you will be rich and expensive." The mother of the child quickly said, "Thank you for your good words!" "When washing the three dynasties in the mountains, the midwife will roll a blowtorch on the child's shoulder twice and say, dear son, when you grow up, you will carry bamboo." The lake area is different. After washing the child for three generations, the midwife put a wooden stick on the child's little hand and said, "Come on, grow up.

Can paddle. "

Fourth, the tradition of sacrifice: the "local tyrants' festival" of the villagers.

. In Daye, a parcel city in southeastern Hubei, the mountain people celebrate a peculiar folk festival every year-"Tuzhu Festival".

Tuzhu Festival is a traditional festival in the whole city. On February 18 of the lunar calendar every year, villagers invite them to go up the mountain and bring two red-faced and red-robed landowners down the mountain, which is called "Xia Tian". Then carrying the landlord into the village to pray, the order of entering the village is from near to far. Every village, every household should leave a "rake".

"Piled into a male rake mountain, centered on the male rake mountain, placed in front of the statue of the land god in the purlin. People here pray for a bumper harvest in agriculture,

Peacetime.

"Statue of Bodhisattva" is an important part of Tuzhu Festival. Men, women and children gathered in the main hall to watch the performance of "Bodhisattva Erection" and shouted loudly, often lasting until late at night. Bodhisattva is a primitive sacrificial dance. The villagers used two

Hold the Bodhisattva with a long pole, tie the ends of the barbell with thick ropes, and tie a short stick in the middle of the rope. Then four strong men were carrying them face to face, two in front and two in the back, walking sideways for two and a half steps, holding them with both hands.

At the same time, the big bar was turned, and a man was carrying a big gong to cheer. Accompanied by the sound of gong, the pole rotates rapidly and repeatedly, and the scene is hot and warm. In fact, "Bodhisattva Erection" is an entertainment activity that lasts until March 3rd. On March 3, people sent the landlord up the mountain, which was called "the landlord ascended to heaven", indicating the end of the "landlord's day".

In this kind of sacrificial activity, the collectivity of folk culture is reflected. The collective here refers to the clan,

A collection of tribes, nationalities, villages and towns. Generally speaking, a certain culture does not belong to individuals.

Or a minority, but inherited and enjoyed by some social groups, becoming a common custom and a public cultural property.

"Local Festival" has obvious collectivity.

Summary:

The position of a region or even a country in world history is determined by this region or country.

The traditional position of national culture and the mentality of relevant people. But this national culture, especially as

The folk culture of national noumenon culture is by no means the object of others' curiosity because of its antiquity.

China's customs and habits should always be in the process of vertical inheritance and horizontal interception, and at the same time, they should be constantly sublated.

With the acceleration of urbanization in China, Daye, the ancient copper capital, is also developing rapidly.

For a city with a strong desire for creation, contribution and enterprising, its status and value are not only determined by its safety.

How many things do you own-even things you used to be proud of,

Should be based on whether we can continue to create and contribute unprecedented things to the country and the world.

While carrying forward its long-standing traditional customs, Daye should also pay attention to taking its essence and discarding its dross.

The image is vivid and vivid. Therefore, the rice harrow knocked out is particularly attractive. Silver harrow is a great wind.

Delicious food and piles of rakes are dazzling.
