Judging from the geographical location of Shaanxi, the traffic situation in Shaanxi before modern times was still extremely bad. Especially in Guanzhong area, there are Qinba Mountain in the south, Yellow River and Loess Plateau in the north. Located in the center, you need to climb mountains and cross rivers. So this place has become one of the reasons why Shaanxi people or Guanzhong people work so hard to clear customs.
It is said that Guanzhong people are heroic and free and easy, but this is only one of their characteristics. For Guanzhong people, it is also the representative of "gentleness". What is important here is feelings, especially those of relatives. Their emotional expression is more radical. In addition to the saying that "Guanzhong women don't marry", there are also malicious words such as "marry women and splash water". If you marry your daughter too far, it is not conducive to the communication between your daughter and your family.
It is not strange to rob a relative, but it is not common in real life. However, in Guanzhong area of Shaanxi Province, robbing relatives happens from time to time. Before modern times, people's lives in Shaanxi were very stable. Often because of poverty, some people choose to take mountains as the king and become bandits. For them, good things and bad things are done together. The only place where Guanzhong's daughter gets married is the road frequented by these bandits. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of children, daughters in Guanzhong area basically do not marry outside. At the same time, Shaanxi men rarely take it outside.
As far as the present situation is concerned, the phenomenon described by this proverb has completely disappeared. The convenience of road traffic and the stability and harmony of social order have played a key role in breaking the "Guanzhong women don't marry outside".
