"What's wrong with the person you asked Senior Brother to help find?" Han didn't care about Senior Brother Yang's inner complaints.

"Have you ever omitted my work?" Yang Zongyi snorted, "A senior brother from the Xuanjian Sect, the sixth floor of foundation building. A senior brother from my Seven Star Academy, the sixth floor of foundation building. You should know the last person, Xiaoxiao from Feihuazhai. She has recently broken through the fifth floor of foundation building and happened to go down the mountain to take a walk."

"That's great, so please ask a few senior brothers and sisters." Han said.

"That's natural. If you accept your entrustment, you will naturally do things beautifully." Yang Zongyi said,

The marriage customs of the Tang Dynasty were mostly inherited from the Northern Dynasties. In the Northern Dynasties, when welcoming the bride, the husband's family led by the groom and came to the door of the bride's house and shouted in unison: "Wife!" At this time, the bride's house often closed the door, which meant to give the groom a color to see. This daughter-in-law was not easy to marry, so dozens or even hundreds of villagers in the husband's family gathered in a circle and called outside the gate until the door was urged to open and welcome the bride into the car. In the Tang Dynasty, this was called "promoting makeup". The Tang Dynasty often welcomed the bride in the evening, and only after the middle Tang Dynasty did someone change the time to the early morning. After picking up the bride, the matter was not finished, and the woman often gathered a large number of people to block the road and prevent the groom's car from passing. It was okay to think about it and leave it to buy wealth, which was called "blocking cars".

When the wedding date was about, the groom took a black painted car to marry the bride. Someone was holding a candle in front of him, and two cars were following him from the car and the bride who was about to be given to the bride. After arriving at the bride, the dressed bride stood in the room. The bride's father went out and picked up the groom into the house. At this time, the groom still gave the other party a geese and went out, and the bride accompanied him.

When the imperial carriage arrived at the girl's house, the minister praised her parents-in-law and relatives. There was a set of etiquette inside, and then welcomed the bride out and got on the carriage. The groom returned for three weeks. The bride took the next carriage, and several relatives from the girl's house accompanied him to send it, which was called "sending off the bride". Note that the carriage the bride was usually brought by the woman, and the man would send it back in March afterwards.

Then the groom drove himself, then asked the bride to get on the bus, and then a special driver took the bus to drive on the road. The groom took his own car, whipped his horse, and waited first in front of his house. The bride arrived, and the groom approached the door himself.

Misunderstanding 1: The worship of the house is a mess. Now it means that the husband and wife bow to each other, and it means that the two heads meet. This is not the relationship between mandarin ducks in Liangshan Po. In ancient rituals, women worship first, and men return the ceremony. This is the kingly way, the husband’s way, and the right way. In addition, the misunderstanding of the place where the house is worshipped, the so-called swornship of the Qinglu is actually the custom of the Northern Dynasties. It was changed during the Tang Dynasty. It is recorded that during the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao robbed other people’s Qinglu and stirred up the wedding, which was actually the wedding of foreigners, similar to today’s Chinese rushing into the church to steal a foreign girl.

Hold a banquet to eat together, and carry out prescribed joint work and joint etiquette.

When the wedding is held, the newlyweds eat the meat of the animals after the sacrifice, symbolizing that the couple has the same rank since then. The specific ceremony is to hold a banquet in the southwest corner of the new house, place the lungs, livers, etc. of cattle and sheep in the middle, and put vegetable sauce, meat sauce, millet, pork, etc. on both sides at the same time. The bride and groom sit opposite each other, first sacrifice to the millet and millet, lungs, and then dip the lungs with vegetable sauce and meat sauce to eat together. After this three times, a ritual will be performed.

A new house with a glass of wine is also called a mermaid. The old saying "生口" means that a mermaid is divided into two mermaids: "A mermaid is divided into two mermaids. The son-in-law and his wife each hold a piece of each mermaid to drink. After drinking three times, the mermaids are completed. The man should remember that after drinking, he should turn the cup over and take the meaning of yin and yang harmony. Otherwise, he will be bullied by his wife in this life. The shoes should be put in place, and the clothes should not be stepped on by his wife's shoes. The clothes should not be pressed down. So the melon tastes bitter, and using it to serve wine must be bitter wine. Therefore, performing a mermaid not only symbolizes the combination of newlyweds into one, but also contains the meaning of letting newlyweds share the joys and sorrows.

The groom and the bride worked together, and after the marriage was held, the remaining food was removed to another room for a banquet. The woman sent her relatives to eat the remaining food from the groom, and the man's wedding was eaten up all the remaining food from the bride. The ceremony ended.

After the banquet in the new house, the groom took off his dress and took off the tassel from the bride's head with his own hands. The tassel was a kind of silk rope to determine the marriage relationship for men and women. The woman used it to tie her hair after getting engaged. The groom took it off by himself until the wedding was about to be removed. Then the indoor candle was removed and the wedding was completed.

On the day of the wedding, the couple cannot live in the house and must live in a tent built with a green cloth curtain outside the house, which is called "Qinglu". The couple complete the worship ceremony here and spend the first night of the wedding. In "Qinglu", the couple bow to each other, each cuts a strand of hair and puts it in a ribbon, symbolizing the marriage of hair.

First, brides were slapping their faces. In ancient times, brides often used slaps to cover their faces and needed to leave after they were submitted. It was called "slaps". Like the makeup-inducing poems mentioned earlier, the man also had to write slaps.

Second, the bun is also called "breasted hair", which symbolizes the harmony of the couple and the unity of the same heart. The specific operation methods of "breasted hair" have different dynasties. The "breasted hair" in the Qin and Han Dynasties are the groom who personally untied the wedding tassels that the bride had when she was at her parents' home, that is, the ribbons of the hair tied up, and then tied them. The "breasted hair" after the Sui and Tang Dynasties was that both men and women cut a little hair and tied it into a "breasted bun", which is usually handed over to the bride to keep immediately. The female poet Chao Cai of the Tang Dynasty said: "After cutting the cloud hair, the man also divides the hair. When looking for no one, he tied it into a knot of the same heart." People often use "breasted hair" as a synonym for the union of husband and wife, and even specifically refers to the "original" couple.

That is, before marriage, the man must fill the stone mortar with three liters of corn, cover the wellhead with a mat, stuff the window with three kilograms of hemp, and place three arrows at the door of the new house. After receiving the bride, the bride must block her knees and put the veil on it. After the bride gets on the car, the groom needs to ride a horse around the car three times. When the bride first enters her husband's house, she first worships the stove to show that she will become a good person in charge of housework in the future. The man's parents and relatives will leave through the door and then enter through the main door, in order to step on the bride's footprints to get lucky.

The wedding ceremony during the Tang Dynasty was very interesting and included a strong folk culture:

After the newlyweds, the son-in-law returned to the house and met his father-in-law and mother-in-law. The woman's family and relatives all arrived. At this time, there was a fun game, that is, the girls used wooden sticks and bamboo sticks to beat the son-in-law to have fun, and they did not stop until the son-in-law was beaten to the point of being dizzy. This can be understood as the woman's demonstration: Our daughter has been married, so you can do it!
