Generally speaking, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, married men who are not yet fathers always take their wives to visit their parents-in-law. As soon as the son-in-law came in, her mother-in-law gave her poached eggs to eat, even four, six and eight. You can eat less, but you must declare that your mother-in-law will take it away as soon as possible. Poached eggs have soup, but you must not drink soup. A son-in-law accidentally ate soup, and her husband smiled, thinking that the son-in-law didn't know the rules. "Look at him? Even soup! " If you have a wife and sister, you often like to do some "little tricks". Maybe there are peppers in the eggs, which will make you choke and make your wife and sister laugh. Two years before marriage, poached eggs must be eaten. Holding the baby, sometimes I can't eat. But many mothers-in-law were beaten and eaten. Son-in-law can also come to eat. If you don't give poached eggs, you must be very careful: marriage may change. If the mother-in-law dies, relatives and friends will say, "Your egg is broken!" " So is the importance of poached eggs.
Let's start here. On the wedding day, the new son-in-law came to meet the bride. It is the custom in Hancheng to give the new son-in-law three kinds of rice: wonton, dried noodles and rice. Three meals are served in turn. Shame everything. Not much. The bowl is exquisite and small. Wonton means reunion. A long-faced, long-lived, long-lasting couple with rich financial resources will do. Rice, which may mean rare and precious, is rarely planted in Weibei Plateau. Later, the son-in-law came to the door again, and most of them used wonton to entertain them across the bridge, which was a bit like crossing the bridge rice noodles in Yunnan. Wonton is separated from the hot scorpion, and there is a delicate and beautiful colander for you to scoop wonton yourself. Fuping county gives pancakes and oil buns. There are many ways to make steamed stuffed buns in Dongfu oil. There is an oil drum bottom, the size of a sesame seed cake, instant noodles, chopped green onion, seasoning, several twists, and several rolls. When cooked, there are four pieces, which look layer after layer, crispy and delicious. When we say the bottom of an oil drum, it probably refers to the small drum used by farmers to hold oil. Others are made into persimmon-sized cakes called "money cakes". When I pay my father-in-law a New Year call, I should bring some steamed bread or something. When I come back, my mother-in-law will never forget to put some walnuts and dates in the basket and wrap some money cakes in paper. When the new son-in-law visits her husband and returns to the village, there are always good people waiting at the village entrance. The food you get back depends on whether your mother-in-law treats her son-in-law well or whether you are having fun. My husband's family brought food just to drive boys crazy.
The new son-in-law has to meet his father-in-law several times a year. In addition to New Year's Day, it is more common to "turn to wheat" and "turn to busy". "Turning to Wheat Cooked" refers to visiting with steamed buns and oil angle Corner before the summer harvest. Just when the green and yellow are not connected, I care whether the crops grow well or not, and whether my daughter's parents will eat them. "Let's get busy" means that during the period after the summer harvest, they brought a steamed bun made of new wheat and oil angle horn, and they went together again. It is intended to care about the actual harvest, not only to congratulate the harvest, but also to compete whose new wheat is whiter, tougher and better. The harvest is in sight, and my daughter and son-in-law visit, which is a double happiness. My father-in-law smiled and said, "There is no problem with this year's harvest. I will give you pancakes and oil cakes today. " Joy is beyond words.
These humanistic customs are still widely popular in the rural areas of Guanzhong.
