What's the Eastern Village wedding custom

the eastern commune is a distinct ethnic minority in the province of gansu, china, with a long history and folklore, integrating and developing many cultures and forming today's eastern commune.

polygamy has also been practised in the past in the form of marriages between eastern communes, but it is now largely monogamous and strictly enforced, i.e., inter-ethnic and inter-religious marriages.

marriage outside the family is strictly prohibited for members of the same family.

intra-religious marriage refers to the need for a spouse, male or female, to be chosen among persons of the same religion, islam, and preferably within the same sect.

moreover, marriages in eastern townships are deeply influenced by islam and are largely determined by parents, and young men and women are not allowed to talk in person, mostly through the middle of the “fire for red” (media).

the husband usually asks for a kiss, and when she says yes, he sends a tea order.

“chat order” is usually a few pounds of fine tea and some clothes.

the formal betrothal, the “mehleku and” (bride price) was then performed.

on that occasion, the bride price will be paid to the woman by the man and his father, uncle, matchmaker and companion.

there are two types of bride price: tea, sugar, pastry, etc., and pre-arranged clothing, cash and ear falls, bracelets, etc.

there is also the practice of engagement for buns in some mountainous areas of the east.

the man's family curded the wheat collected in the same year into a lump of white flour, each of which was about 1 kg, a bit of ginger yellow on the top, a little cut open with a knife, and when it was fertilized, the top of the balconies of snow white was like yellow flowers, signalling the next five years for the family.

the common name of the east village wedding is “chause”.

on the day of the marriage, the two families were very busy, and the relatives and friends and the next-door neighbours were expected to come together and be congratulated by the generous “breeding” of friends who were close to each other.

the meal is based on the traditional rules, and consists mainly of fried noodles, sugar buns, meat buns, cabbage, lamb, chicken, etc.

there's no alcohol on the table.

the marriage date is freely negotiated between the family of the man and the woman, mostly after the autumn harvest or during winter hours, and is generally celebrated as a day of ceremonial celebration.

the day of marriage, a simple islamic ritual.

when a man enters into marriage with his wife, he is presided over by an imam, who seeks the consent of a young man and a woman to marry.

the marriage contract is null and void if one of the parties does not wish to do so.

in reading "nika", the imam publicly agreed to give a certain amount of "nika money" to the woman after the marriage.

"nica money" symbolizes a man's commitment to a woman's obligation not to abandon his wife at will.

after reading "nica" at the end of the day, the witness gave a pre-arranged plate of red dates, walnuts to the pre-arranged adults and children, saying that they had children early.

when the bride arrives at the groom ' s door, the bride is taken to the hospital by a chariot of his brother.

my family and friends gathered to sing “harry” and congratulated.

one of the guests took the lead in calling out “harley”, and the crowds (many teenagers) round and rounded by the beats or on the arms, with the legs bending into horse-riding positions, and the left and right circles.

singing is made up of guests, mostly the groom's handsome, the bride's beautiful, the couple's loving, never separated, and so onwords.

in the evenings, the bride met with her guests, called the “servant”, and in the afternoon, the bride first came to the stove, long face, called the “testing knife”, and invited the elderly of the neighbourhood to taste the new wife's crafts.

there is also an interesting procedure for their wedding, called "sequest cook" , which is located in the eastern neighborhood of the western gansu river, to the east of the dasha river and to the south of the yellow river.

on the day of the bride's wedding, the bridegroom, the groom's companion, and the bride's wife's family, as usual, has set up a reception.

after the wedding party, the groom will personally deliver the wood combs and gills he has prepared to the bride's room, and will express his gratitude to the women who helped her to dress.

then the groom and the groom snuck into the kitchen of the woman's house, first, to greet the cooks and the girls who helped the stoves politely, and second, to look into the opportunity and steal a kitchen kit from the kitchen without anyone knowing it.

but it's not easy for the groom to steal a tool in front of the girls.

when the girls saw the groom and the groom entering the kitchen, they started by making fun of the groom, and then started by scratching the bottom of the pot and rubbing it on the face of the groom's groom, they were satisfied with them.

it's when the bridegroom grumbles.

in chaos, the groom quickly “snatched” a small piece of equipment and hid it on his body.

the girls knew that the groom had “stealed” something, but did not know what it was that he had stolen.

so he swooped up and dragged him to one side with his hands and his hands and his hands and feet, and he sprayed the smoke.

the groom had been able to steal the cook, so he fought out of the girls, and in the girls' laughter, he fled and even the bride was not married.

after the "stealing" is over, someone will marry the bride.
