Wedding etiquette, usually called happy event, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, please ask friends and relatives or neighbors for help before the wedding. The leader who presides over the wedding is called the general manager, or the big general manager. In order to distinguish it from the general manager who handles the funeral, it is also called General Manager Hong. He arranged various matters according to the intention of the host family, such as writing couplets, sending invitations, activating sedan chairs, inviting bands, chefs, bookkeepers, office workers, arranging weddings, funerals, banquets and so on. Whether this happy event is prosperous, whether the host spends money properly, whether the in-laws are satisfied, and whether the etiquette is thoughtful depends on General Hong's ability. Therefore, Hong is always a very important person, usually served by the elders in the village who know this etiquette. Guests should be invited before the wedding. If some guests can't move, they should use carriages, row cars or rubber-tyred trolleys to move. At this point, the preparations for marriage are basically completed.

Getting married is the most interesting part of the whole wedding process. The day before the old wedding, the groom had to put on new clothes, play drums and walk from house to house. This is called an expert ceremony, which means that relatives and neighbors should be invited to help him a lot on the wedding day. In some places, people only salute their families, which is called performing family rituals. A man in Dongping county saluted his relatives and friends the day before he married the bride, expressing his coronation. The gifts from relatives and friends are also called crown respect. Emperor Wu is getting married in the evening, and my husband is dressing up in the temple; Lingxian county will get married, adults will be crowned, and parents, brothers and sisters will be worshipped; When Huantai wants to get married, she should wear an adult crown, sue the temple, worship her parents, uncles, brothers, aunts, clan elders and Mr. Xiang; Both Tai 'an and Dong 'e take wedding as the crown ceremony, that is, adults get married and boys are unmarried.

The day before the wedding, the relatives and friends of the woman's family also arrived to warm the bride's wedding, or warm the sedan chair. Warm wedding is to invite a group of trumpeters to play in the evening, and some even invite a small troupe to sing some songs. On this evening, the bride will hold a "farewell ceremony" to her parents to thank them for their kindness. Linyi area is used to "seeing off relatives", and the sedan chair hired the night before the wedding came to the woman's house. The bearers attended the warm wedding together. At this time, we should treat them well so that they can lift the sedan chair safely and stably the next day. In Laiyang area, the afternoon before the wedding, the man's house sent the sedan chair to the woman's house. When delivering a sedan chair, the groom first sits in the sedan chair for more than ten steps, and then comes down, which means pressing the sedan chair.

On the wedding day, there are many customs and habits. The first one is to greet the bride. There are great differences in the ways and times of getting married in Shandong. There are three main ways to get married: the first is that the groom personally goes to the woman's house to pick up the bride, which is called marriage, or it can be called marriage; The second is that the groom does not go in person, but sends his brother or uncle to the bride's house to pick up the bride, which can be called equal relatives; The third is that the man does not send someone to the woman's house, and the woman sends the bride, which can be called "sending the bride". The wedding ceremony is called "big wedding" in some places, which is often adopted by wealthy families and ordinary families living in wealthy areas. The place where people send their relatives off is called "small marriage", which is suitable for the economic situation of ordinary families. Linyi, Jining, Tai 'an, Zibo, Binzhou and other regions use this form. Most poor families in Liangshan get married by car with a simple ceremony, commonly known as "one car, two cows and two lamps". The bride usually enters the house at noon, but it is midnight in Qufu, Tai 'an and Boshan, and the sunshine is mostly in the afternoon. For those who get married at noon, the first person who comes to the wedding banquet in the morning is the trumpeter. They preached at the main entrance with a big pole and called "Drum Gate" at Longkou. When the master heard the sound of the trumpet, he opened the door to welcome the drummer into the house, and then went to the "Drum Cave". After a short rest, I began to play music. The band usually has two classes, thick and thin, which take turns to play, and sometimes there are operas and oratorios. At this time, the bearers came to the door with flags, gongs, umbrellas, fans, lights and other deacons, and the helpers were in place. The yard is full of joy and joy. After breakfast, the bride's sedan chair will leave. The groom put on new clothes. In the past, he used to wear a robe and jacket, a melon hat or a top hat, and a big red flower on his chest, and stepped into the sedan chair. There are two sedan chairs at the wedding. The groom sits in an official sedan chair and the bride sits in a sedan chair. The bride's sedan chair cannot be empty. Generally, a little boy with both parents should be found to press the sedan chair, commonly known as "sedan chair boy", "sedan chair boy" or "sedan chair student". There must be a big rooster in the sedan chair, the red sign of "Good luck shines high" should be posted on the sedan chair door, and the words "Little Deng Ke" should be written on the deacon's big fan. In Rizhao, the wedding sedan chair is followed by people who carry the "head gift". Everything is ready, three shots, a few gongs, and accumulated music are played together, and the wedding team will set off in a mighty way.

On the wedding day in Texas, men should write wedding invitations. The wedding procession was led by a man with a red belt on his shoulder, and the drummer played festive music loudly. Then, the flag gongs and umbrellas lined up on both sides and followed closely. The groom does not sit in a sedan chair, but rides a burly horse with golden flowers on his head. After the ceremony, the sedan chair carried by the last four people carried the "sedan chair" and the rooster. In front of the woman's house, in the sound of firecrackers, the sedan chair door is set in the direction of the Western God. Someone took the money and let the child get off the sedan chair. The deacon took the "wedding invitation" and led the groom to see Yue Weng. The bride's sedan chair in Longkou is a two-way sedan chair, and the bride's sedan chair is decorated more luxuriously. There is no sedan chair in it, only a washbasin with a big cake and some red velvet flowers for the bride's head. When the groom goes to the sedan chair, he should take a bite of the cake. When you get on the sedan chair, the drummer blows the big horn first, and then the music is played together. The people in Juancheng greet their families with a Taiping car, which has an arched carport with a red blanket in front and a sheet in the back. There is a rooster tied to the front of the car, one with a whip and one with a wallet on his shoulder to set off firecrackers along the way. When you marry a woman, you bring a "head box" when you get on the bus, which contains the bride's wedding dress, crown and other things; In addition, there are four people carrying lanterns. All the people who go to get married and the animals who pull carts tie a red cloth on their foreheads to show good luck. Cars entering and leaving the village must follow the rules, that is, "going east and going west". Meanwhile, the groom didn't go to meet the bride. After getting married and leaving the village, wear new clothes and worship ancestors, parents and neighbors. The bride's dowry was delivered to the man's house in the early hours of the wedding day, and the wedding car was not allowed on the way, so we had to make a detour.

When the sedan chair arrives at the woman's door, the drummer will blow the woman's door. In the old days, as soon as the sedan chair in Huangxian stopped in front of the woman's house, the woman's house deliberately closed the door and shut the groom out. This is called "carrying the back". So the drummer blew the gate with a big horn, and heavy music and gongs played for a while. This process is repeated three times, which means to let the woman open the door and invite the groom in. After three dozen, the girl's lover and children asked the groom to sing at the gate, or they were not allowed to open the door. At this time, the man's felt-top guest and the woman's farewell guest pleaded for the groom and asked for release. Some people can't open the door for a long time, and the groom is afraid of missing the auspicious day, so he has to sing a few songs to meet everyone's requirements.

When the groom enters the bride's house, some will worship their ancestors and parents, others will take a break, and then they will bring food and drinks, accompanied by guests, and chat while eating, waiting for the bride to get dressed. Brides should put on their wedding clothes before getting on the sedan chair, and some even have to "open their faces" and "wear their heads". The time of opening face and removing head is not uniform in all parts of Shandong. In some places, the wedding day was set as a "send-off day", and in some places, the head was cut before the sedan chair or after entering the bridal chamber. Some go to the head to open their faces together, and some open their faces on the third day after marriage. The so-called face opening is to twist off the fluff on the face with a red line; Above, the hair is braided into a bun, which is a sign that the bride has changed from a girl to a daughter-in-law. When getting to the top, you usually sit in a saddle or armchair, which means "come right away and get on the sedan chair." Brides are usually dressed by in-laws, husbands and middle-aged women with all the children. Besides dressing up, they have to put on new wedding dresses. Wedding dresses should be all red, and cotton is usually preferred to single items. When getting married in summer, a wisp of cotton wool should also be wrapped around the waist, which is said to show the "child thickness". Brides in many places are rockhopper dresses, embroidered shoes, beaded flowers, gold and silver jewelry (rented by many people), and finally get a red head. In Feixian and Mengyin areas, the bride should not only wear embroidered shoes, but also wear a pair of soft shoes made of yellow silk, which are called "Zodiac shoes". When these shoes entered the husband's house, someone pulled them to make hats for the children. Before getting on the sedan chair, the bride should also have something in her hand. A bride in Texas, USA, holds a coffin in her left hand, a hip flask in her right hand and a bronze mirror in her arms. The coffin and hip flask show that she came in to help her spin and be considerate of her husband. Bronze mirror is called "evil mirror". The bride in Tai 'an should hold handkerchiefs, small mirrors and other items in her hand, and carry some money and handkerchiefs in her arms. When preparing sedan chairs for Lu Yu's wedding, they exchanged handkerchiefs and threw money across wells, rivers and temples to worship God. Brides in some places in Jiaodong hold handkerchiefs, which are wrapped in various flour products, mirrors and onions. Onions, homophonic, should be thrown on the roof when they arrive at the husband's house. When crossing the bridge, throw the flour products into the river to worship the gods. Handkerchiefs, like Tai 'an, are exchanged with brides in Lu Yu, and some even exchange rings.

After the bride was dressed up, the drummer played happily. The groom, accompanied by the female guests, said goodbye to his parents-in-law, and the woman's family wore the Red Cross for him. Some grooms go to the curtain of the bride's boudoir to salute and send the female guests in return. Some grooms go to the opposite side of the bride's boudoir curtain, and then the groom gets on the sedan chair first. The bride was carried out of the boudoir by her brother in an round-backed chair and sent to a sedan chair, which means that her feet never touched her family's soil. Brides in Jiaonan and Rizhao are assisted by "married women" and enter the sedan chair on the red carpet or flower mat. If it rains, they must be carried into the sedan chair by their brothers or sisters. Before getting on the sedan chair, it is inevitable that mother and daughter will cry when they are separated. The bride should have a mouthful of rice in her mouth, or a mouthful of comfort, spit half and leave half. It is said that too much wealth is thrown at the bride's family, too much poverty is left at her family, and the poverty of the other half of her husband's family often puts the bride in a dilemma. In some places, the bride wants to grab a handful of money from her mother's pocket. Catch more and catch less means the same as spitting. Some people use food instead of money. Longkou, after the bride gets on the sedan chair, she should send two porcelain pots to the bride and groom's sedan chair, and put two peaches and two mirrors in the pots in the bride and groom's sedan chair to symbolize health and longevity. In addition, there is a custom of the groom stealing things in Longkou, that is, when the banquet is over, the groom secretly takes back a small handleless wine cup and a pair of chopsticks when people are not paying attention, which means to have a dutiful son early after marriage. In Boshan area, the bride grabbed the sedan chair. On the wedding day, the groom took the car and sedan chair and followed a group of people to the woman's house to "rob the bride". The bride's brother ran behind her, the bridesmaid was behind the guard, and the groom took the people to catch up. After a symbolic struggle, the bride was robbed of the sedan chair. After the bride gets on the sedan chair, there is a custom of splashing water in many places, which is called "marrying a girl and splashing water". Linqu is the bride's brothers and sisters who bring her water, also called soup, which is the last brotherly service the bride enjoys before she gets married. Some are the bride's mother or brother's sister-in-law, throwing a ladle of water outside the door. It is said that it means that the married daughter, like the spilled water, can never be collected again, hiding the pity of mother and daughter.

After the bride and groom sit firmly in the sedan chair, the sedan chair bearer shouts to lift the sedan chair, and both sedan chairs are lifted at the same time, and the wedding procession returns to her husband's house. In areas where there is a custom of "sending small meals", people with small meals on their shoulders take the lead. The so-called small rice is a wooden tray filled with jiaozi and noodles, wrapped in a red bag, carried one by one with hooks, sent to the man's house, cooked half-baked, and given to the bride and groom. Correspondingly, there is also a "big meal", that is, eating a "meal" with a table filled with lunch boxes. The wedding procession is usually huge, and the first one is to send invitations. When you meet a bridge, a well, a temple and a corner, you should stick invitations. Some local posts write Qinglong, which is called Chuan Qinglong Post. In some places in Jiaodong, people walk in front and hold red carpets. Whenever they meet temples, wells, bridges, etc. They all use the red carpet to let the sedan chair pass, which is similar to spreading wedding invitations. Then there are ceremonial ceremonies such as big gongs, colorful flags and umbrellas, followed by two sedan chairs. The official's sedan chair is in front, accompanied by a rough band, followed by a fine band, supported by the bride's shower on both sides, commonly known as "sedan chair pole", and finally the sedan chair is to see the guests off. The wedding team can't get off the sedan chair on the way, and they should beat gongs and drums when passing through villages and towns to attract people to watch. In the old society, marriage was called "junior high school entrance examination", which not only allowed unknown people to put on official clothes, but also allowed the official sedan chair of the county master to make way when meeting the wedding team. If you encounter a funeral on the way to marriage, don't avoid it. This is called "growing old together"; If you meet another wedding party, the two brides exchange gifts, and some will visit relatives later. In Rizhao, Haiyang and other places, if several families in the village greet their relatives on the same day, the bride must go through the door first. As the saying goes, "come early and live well."

Marry the bride.

When the sedan chair arrives at the village head of the man's house, the gong is sounded first, and the man receives the guests and goes out to meet them. At this moment, the sedan chair is walking slowly in the middle of the street. The sedan chair shows off its spirit and shakes it firmly. This is called pressing the road, shaking the sedan chair and stepping on the road. The thick and thin music played fancy, and the men, women and children gathered around the sedan chair to the door of the man's house. Wedding guests first set off a set of firecrackers, or three cannons, on the sedan chair, and then the position of the sedan chair facing the Western God was decided. At this time, the door of the man's house is closed, so let the sedan chair stop in front of the door for a while. This is called restraint, restraint and suddenness. The purpose is to make the bride soft and obedient to her mother-in-law. In many areas, it is necessary to "burn sedan chairs" or "burn cars" at this time. Two little boys or girls, holding torches made of hemp stalks or stalks, burned three times around the sedan chair or sedan chair. In Linqing, the sedan chair landed, and the mother-in-law presented the loom "leftover flowers" wrapped in red paper for the bride to hold, indicating that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were knitting together. In Texas, the old man came to buckle a sieve on the top of the sedan chair, which means "encirclement", which means that the evil spirits can't escape, and they should splash a pot of water under the sedan chair, which is called "splashing soup". In Mengyin and Feixian, in order to celebrate happiness and test women's talents, men often put some fragile stones in the sedan chair, and the father-in-law deliberately put a straight face and claimed that the bride had to say a few auspicious words before getting off the sedan chair. With the clever bride, she read smoothly: "Newlyweds press stones, and their children and grandchildren have official jobs." So everyone was happy, and immediately someone brought two bowls of soothing tea. If the bride doesn't drink it, she falls in front of the sedan chair. At this time, Longkou has a ceremony to worship the door gods. There are pig heads, chickens and fish on the altar at the door, and the groom's uncle leads him to kowtow and sacrifice at the door. Only after offering sacrifices to the door can he open it.

Before the bride gets off the sedan chair, two girls or two married women usually lift the curtain. In Tai 'an area, two girls "handed the box" first, then handed a bag of bran and a bag of salt into the sedan chair shoes, and the bride stepped down from the sedan chair with the box in her hand. Juancheng means that after the bride gets off the sedan chair, two children put a bag of bran and a bag of salt in the bride's hand. Salt and bran mean "virtuous" and "blessed". In some places, the bride's feet should be roasted with iron charcoal before getting off the sedan chair; In some places, an axe is put in the sedan chair, and the mother-in-law is going to "make money". After the bride puts on her sedan chair shoes at home, her feet are not allowed to touch the ground until she takes off her shoes and sits in the bridal chamber. So when you get off the sedan chair, you have to walk on the red carpet. This is called "inverted carpet". The bride has red hair and is supported by two married women, holding bottles and flowers in her arms. Some of them lit torches, and the one in front came to the gate with a brazier. There is a stone with cloth at the door. There is a saddle on the stone and a bunch of money on the saddle. The bride walks on it, which is called "safe progress". There is a brazier at the second door, and the bride walks over, symbolizing the prosperity of her future life. Both Jiaodong and Lubei have the custom of putting two sokcho by the door and dressing up with girls' clothes, which are called "Lion King" and "Grass Girl", while Linzi pays by the door. In Tai 'an, Zibo, Binzhou, Jining and other regions, when the bride enters the door, she must press a pair of red bricks and chopsticks on the door, and some of them must be placed by two people who belong to the dragon and tiger. It is said that it can ward off evil spirits. When the bride walks into the yard, some people sprinkle grain, paper scraps, grass knots, bran, chestnuts, dates, peanuts and so on. All the way to ward off evil spirits In some places, fires and cakes are set at the same time, and people compete for fun.

When the bride is helped into the courtyard, the ceremony of worshipping heaven and earth begins, which is the main symbol of the success of the wedding. The table of heaven and earth is placed in front of the hall, with a bucket and an elevator on it. It is filled with sorghum, covered with red paper, and a steelyard is inserted in the bucket. There is a bunch of incense burning in the bucket before the bucket, and a bronze mirror stands in front of the bucket. The bride and groom stood on the red carpet in front of the table, with the woman in the east and the man in the west, following the cries of the witness, one worshiped heaven and earth and the other worshipped Gaotang. After the husband and wife finished worshipping each other, they were sent to the bridal chamber. Taian worships heaven and earth in front of the incense table. There are offerings on the incense table, candles are lit, red carpets are laid under the incense table, and cakes are placed. The groom kowtowed to heaven and earth, and the bride stood motionless on the cake. In some places, when offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, people grab the sorghum in a bucket and sprinkle it on the bride's head, which is called "Sa 'er", but it is actually a "Sa 'te". In Yangjun Township, Laiyang, the sedan chair arrived at the door, and the father-in-law pulled the curtain of the sedan chair forward. Before helping the bride get off the sedan chair, the bride's feet should be baked with a stove, and the groom is lying on the kang in the bridal chamber, commonly known as "pressing the kang". Help the bride to the front door and call the groom's maiden name three times in a row. The groom heard the sound and accompanied the bride across the saddle and into the gate. Before worshiping heaven and earth, my father-in-law kowtowed at the table of heaven and earth. After worshiping heaven and earth, he entered the house and took off the bride's red hijab with a weighing beam. Take off the red hijab and throw it on the roof at once. The higher it is, the more auspicious it is. In Rizhao and other places, when worshipping heaven and earth, the housekeeper or sedan chair bearer hangs a curtain on the door of the new house, chanting auspicious words while hanging it: "Up to the Eight Immortals, down to the Eight Immortals, please hang the curtain. Hang a curtain above to give birth to a noble child, and hang a curtain below to give birth to a champion. Put your hands together, a crown and a flower. " After the ceremony, the groom will take the bride to the bridal chamber with a red silk. When crossing the dripping eaves in front of the house, the bride will cross it. It is said that "it takes twelve years to have children." At the entrance of the bridal chamber, the groom removes the bride's blush with the balance on the altar, and then the bride enters the bridal chamber. The reason why the scales are used to pick the lids is because the old scales are 16 two per catty 16 stars. According to the six stars, the Big Dipper and the three stars of Fu Lushou in Nan Dou, the total number should be sixteen, which means "good luck". Not all the lids were picked by the scales in front of the door, but some were opened by hand in the bridal chamber. In some places around Linyi and Jining, after the bride got off the sedan chair, a little girl carried a rectangular piece of bacon tied with red cloth to lead the dance. When the bride enters the bridal chamber, she throws the bacon behind the house, which is said to ward off evil spirits. In Linqing area, after the couple enters the bridal chamber, the groom sprays a mouthful of wine on the bride's head and face, and then brings the bride a bowl of noodles, so that she can choose the noodles under the kang mat, commonly known as "longevity noodles".

After the bride is sent to the bridal chamber, some take off the hijab, drink the sedan chair, some open their faces, be crowned, dress up again, then go to bed on the cake or slate and sit down towards XiShen's position. This is called "sitting on the bed", and Zou Ping is called "sitting on the bed". At this time, someone brought chestnuts, red dates, peanuts and so on. Go to bed and read "a handful of chestnuts, a handful of dates, and have a big baby next year", which is called "spreading the account". It used to take three days to sit alone, so the bride should go on a diet a few days before marriage to avoid embarrassment when sitting alone. Later it was changed to a day or a symbolic afternoon. After the local brides in Rizhao enter the bridal chamber, the bride and groom will share the jiaozi sent by their neighbors, commonly known as "Xiaomi Bao", and put some jiaozi under the bed for the children to eat. People think that children eat this kind of jiaozi. In Weishan County, after the bride was sent to the bridal chamber, the woman who helped her get off the sedan chair opened her face, rolled a few red eggs on her face and read auspicious words as she rolled: "Red eggs, a string of faces, eat happy buns this year and happy eggs next year." The groom is not allowed to enter the bridal chamber during the day. It is customary to think that if you enter the bridal chamber during the day, you will be afraid of your wife all your life. In the evening, after the guests left, they were escorted into the bridal chamber by a pair of unmarried girls. When they arrived at the bridal chamber, one girl changed to light a lamp, and the other chanted auspicious words: "When the sun sets, a pair of elder sisters light a lamp. Sitting on the bed is Mrs. Hua, a handsome "xianggong" who enters the door. Sister Hua, handsome and "xianggong", one pillow and two urchins. " The bride was sitting in the bridal chamber, and relatives, friends and neighbors came to see her, asking her to light a cigarette and ask her for sweets and snacks, making a scene. Wudi county does not make trouble with her daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law at this time. The person who came to see the bride touched a handful of black ash from the bottom of the pot and rubbed it on her mother-in-law's face. Her mother-in-law is not only annoyed, but happy. The more she wears, the more popular she becomes. Outside the bridal chamber, the groom is busy entertaining guests and friends with wine. The guests from the bride's family are all distinguished guests, so they must be seated in the main room, accompanied by the corresponding people, and the rest are hosted by relatives or Zhuangxiang. Generally, men and women have different seats. Liangshan county held a wedding banquet at noon, and the man asked someone to marry his mother's family, single seat, seven guests. There are eight plates and eight bowls in the east of Liangshan, commonly known as "eight seats" and "ten bowls" in the west of Liangshan. At the banquet, the groom took his seat, ancha, An Jiu and An Fan. Toast at the dinner, first the groom's brother, then the groom, and finally the groom's father, drink three cups.

In the past, people who held weddings often sang happy songs to congratulate them. Most of them are poor people who beg for a living. When they heard that someone had a happy event, they came to join in the fun and make a living. These people are called Jiro, and most of them sing eulogies. There is no fixed format for improvisation, and they sing in front of the door with a dozen bamboo boards. Their words are:

The moon bends Kyushu,

Red light inside, silk outside,

Today, the zodiac is lucky,

The sedan chair was carried to the gate.

At the gate, spread a red carpet,

Blowing horns and whipping,

There are gongs and umbrellas on both sides of the flag.

The bride got out of the sedan chair and was supported by the nobles.

Wearing a red coat and a red shirt,

Holding both sides of the hip flask,

The nobility and the bride walk together,

Step over stones and saddles.

Entering the gate, beaming,

Enter the second door, stay safe,

As soon as I walked into the yard,

The whole Eight Immortals Table:

A bucket of grain, a steelyard,

Three arrows, a bow,

Burning incense and offering sacrifices,

To the ancestors of heaven and earth.

The bride came into the yard,

Tell the groom to worship heaven and earth.

One worships heaven, the other worships land,

Sanbai's in-laws are satisfied,

Worship the four seasons and get rich,

Five blessings,

Six adoptions, six successes,

Worship seven stars and purple gas,

Congratulations to the Eight Immortals,

Nine worships and nine gifts to high officials,

Everything went well after ten visits.

……

Jiro sang a happy song and came in shouting "Congratulations to Grandpa!" He knelt down and kowtowed, threw the "money string" woven by the red thread into the yard and scattered it all over the floor, then got up and retreated to the door to find a place to rest and wait for the reward. The steward should quickly pick up "Qianzai", reward him and take care of him for a meal before sending him away.

Generally, weddings during the day are all about drinking at night, commonly known as heart-to-heart wine, toast, wedding wine and so on. In ancient times, "juggling" meant drinking separately. Later, the two wine glasses were tied together with red lines or shared. This is the first time that husband and wife drink face to face. There are people who have sex at ordinary times, and the atmosphere is quite active. Changing cups means that the groom holds the cup in his left hand and hands it to the bride's left hand, and the bride hands it to the groom's right hand. Husband and wife drink half a cup at the same time, and then exchange glasses before drinking. Matchmaking is to make money with red lines, one at each end, and put them in two wine glasses. Husband and wife drink at the same time, or hand in the glass before drinking, but money can't be drawn from the glass. Fun, the shorter the red line, the more interesting it is. You can have sex while drinking intimate wine, so that the bride and groom can arrange dishes for each other and even feed each other. After the toast, in Weihai, the bride will eat a bowl of oysters and a bowl of old fish, which means "stand up" and "grow old together". In Yimeng mountain area, the bride wants to eat eggs, and the eggs are often cooked until they are well-done. When eating, others deliberately asked, "Are you alive?" The bride gently replied "for life", which means to have a baby. And then eat chestnuts, dates and the like. One person reads "Eat chestnuts first to give birth to sons, eat red dates first to give birth to jiaoe ...". At this time, sister-in-law and mother-in-law also appeared. First, my sister-in-law put a new urinal under the bed and read aloud, "Leave the urinal, leave the urinal, and wait until next year to hug my little nephew." Mother-in-law put a wooden pier under the bed and wrote: "Cut the wooden pier, cut the wooden pier, and wait until next year to have grandchildren." Next, eat longevity noodles, and everyone present scrambled to eat them in order to join in the fun. In some places, after drinking the heart-to-heart wine, couples get out of bed to carry the urinal, which is called carrying a cornucopia. Mother-in-law closes the door in the bridal chamber and the bride calls. Mother-in-law asked, "Who is it and what is it?" Answer with "Your daughter-in-law and your son are carrying a cornucopia", and then open the door and let go.
