Tongguan's folk customs:

Tongguan is in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, with the earliest civilization, and the previous marriage customs always adhered to the old system of my late king, with the orders of my parents and the words of a matchmaker. When you first get engaged, you take a pair of earrings and give them to the woman. This is called engagement. Later, the male family prepares clothes, jewelry and other things and sends them to the female family on an auspicious day. This is called Xu Kou.

It means that the woman has agreed to this marriage, which is also called eating noodles, because the woman is entertaining the matchmaker and eating noodles, which means that it will last forever. In modern customs, it is simpler than before, and it is divided into betrothal, housekeeping and door recognition. The betrothal is that the introducer talks back and forth, obtains the consent of both men and women, and meets and talks at an agreed place. If both parties have no opinions, they give each other gifts as proof.

the so-called housekeeping means that the man chooses an auspicious day, and the woman comes to the house to look after the house, hold a banquet, and buy clothes, commonly known as breaking clothes. This day is mainly for the woman, and the table is rich. It is the auspicious day for the woman to recognize the door, let the man come home to recognize the door, and invite relatives to toast with him, and each relative will give an unmarried son-in-law a piece of clothing.

on the first day of the man's family, the boxes, clothes hangers and food scraps for the bride's gift will be delivered to the woman's family, because the person in charge who went there that day will pay homage to the woman's three generations of ancestors, which is called a salute. Much more simplified, commonly known as "rush box", shooting before entering the village and shooting before eating.

On the wedding day, people used to ride cars and horses, but now they all use cars to meet their relatives. Usually, the son-in-law goes to meet them, accompanied by a suitcase carrier, a dowry carrier and a gun. It's called "passing things off" to see off relatives and hold a wedding ceremony. The next day, the groom's new food went to his father-in-law's house to pay homage to his relatives and neighbors, and the father-in-law's house also set up seats to treat each other. This is called recognizing the door, which means that the groom first came to know the door of his father-in-law's house, also called returning to the door.

Daughter-in-law has to change another pair of shoes when getting on the sedan chair (car), which means that she will not step on her mother's home. Originally, when her daughter-in-law was leaving her mother's home, she got off the kang, first stepped on the washbasin, then stood on the felt, and then a felt was rotated to the sedan chair (car). This set has been simplified.
