Wedding banquets in rural areas of Shaanxi usually have two meals. The first meal is convenient for guests to eat at any time. Four cold dishes, red oil and blood soup and steamed bread are generally not served. The second meal is the main banquet, and noodles are very particular. In addition to good wine and cigarettes, there are also "eight dishes and five elements" and "perfect" ten elements. The last course of the main banquet is soup, and when the soup is served, it means that the food is finished. When the guests say goodbye to the host family, the host family will send back gifts. The so-called return gift means that when the related guests attend the wedding banquet, in addition to giving wedding gifts and gifts, there are ten steamed buns or steamed buns, which are called "generation gifts". When the guests leave, the host family leaves four out of six, plus two or four "meat buns". The relevant guests are very particular about this, and the host family has prepared the cooked ones in advance. Ordinary guests, such as friends and neighbors, don't pay attention to this, but whoever has a gift must return it.

The kitchen is busy. There are twenty dishes to cook. The so-called "perfection"!
