Chapter 437: An eye-opener

On Gu Zhongyi's side, Liu Lanzhi also invited a "Quanfu grandmother" to her granddaughter to give her granddaughter some necessary guidance.

Tell Gu Fanxin about the precautions for living, greeting, and housework after arriving at the man's house, and help check the dowry and clothes.

Although they all know that they won't live there for long after they get married, they should know how to understand etiquette and be laughed at.

During the meal, seeing that Gu Fanxin had a good appetite, "Grandma Quanfu" smiled and said Fortunately, it is a new thing to do now, unlike in the past, when I took a sedan chair, otherwise I would be hungry from now on.

It turned out that in the past, the woman had three days of food before urging makeup, that is, she ate less or no food and drink for three days before marriage.

Because according to the old custom, the bride is not allowed to move around casually on the day of marriage, if you don't eat, there will be urine and urine after getting on the sedan chair, it will be embarrassing.

Hearing this, Zhang Minyi put down her chopsticks in surprise, Liu Lanzhi and Xu Zhaodi hurriedly beckoned her to eat again, for the girl Zhang Minyi brought back by Gu Fanxin, Gu Zhongyi's family and their family were not disgusted.

Because as soon as he came back, Gu Fanxin took out his own money to buy vegetables to entertain guests. Instead, their family was stained with Zhang Minyi's light, eating and drinking spicy food.

Xu Zhaodi herself was there with rice noodles in a fine porcelain bowl. She first went straight to the bowl with a bowl of flour and scooped a bowl of flour into the bowl, and was about to seal it when she suddenly remembered something.

I heard people say that it seems that this implication is that the married girl will bring the blessings of the family, and in the future, she will be able to worry about food and clothing in her mother-in-law's house, and she will not have to worry about rice and noodles.

Thinking about it like this, Xu Zhaodi's mind turned away: No, no, no, if the blessing is to let this dead girl take to her mother-in-law's house, won't her own family Pengcheng be poor?

Xu Zhaodi hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and pulled them down a little, thought about it and pulled them down halfway, and then sealed the rice and noodle bowl.

Anyway, after the head is sealed, no one will be full to open it when they get there, who knows how many are inside?

As for those firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, it also means it, and no one will open it to take a look.

Now after her son's enlightenment, Xu Zhaodi has a good attitude towards her daughter. makes people look at it and can't remember the bad deeds in the past.

Even Zhang Minyi felt that she was happy and had a harmonious atmosphere.

Gu Zhongyi also performed well, and the form of the family was very good. Liu Lanzhi was so happy that she was very happy when she prayed.

Gu Pengcheng was even more enthusiastic, and even the guests brought back by his sister were very hospitable.

At first glance, Zhang Minyi felt that her best friend's family was doing well, so she told Gu Fanxin about her feelings, but Gu Fanxin smiled silently.

It's like a fish drinking water, knowing its own warmth and coldness. Like people who have not experienced it firsthand, they will not feel pain.

Like her younger brother Gu Pengcheng's deliberate flattery, she knows it. The change in the attitude of his parents must also be Gu Pengcheng's 'credit' in it.

But she doesn't want to break it, both sides tacitly, since this is the case, let's maintain the surface peace.

This night was the last night of the unmarried girl at her parents' house. Zhang Minyi accompanied Gu Fanxin to learn the etiquette class of the bride.

This time it was an eye-opener for her. Traditional culture is also quite interesting.

It turns out that in traditional weddings, tea that symbolizes single-mindedness and the reproduction of children and grandchildren also plays an irreplaceable role.

A man proposes to a woman with tea as a dowry and is called "tea".

Weddings are especially closely related to tea, because where tea trees are planted, they will inevitably give birth to children, but they cannot be transplanted, and if they are transplanted, they will not give birth to children, so tea becomes a wedding mascot.

As Mingren Lang Ying said in the "Seven Cultivation Manuscripts": "Whoever plants a tea tree will have a child, and transplantation will not be resurrected. ”

Fogg, a native of the Qing Dynasty, also said in the eighth volume of "Listening to the Rain": "Today's wedding is hired, with tea as the currency, and the customs of the Qing and Han dynasties are the same, and they are not used in the main room." ”

The so-called "righteousness is inherently taken" and "not used in the formal room" is taken from the meaning of "from the beginning to the end".

In addition, the tea tree has many seeds, symbolizing the reproduction of children and grandchildren. The tea tree is evergreen in all seasons, implying that the husband and wife will always be united and grow old together.
