In addition, there are cable bridge, square, lake, farmhouse, tea garden and folk custom street in the village.

Introduction to folk customs

Inside, you can find that the courtyard is still double, the front one is smaller, and the back dam is at least twice as big. In particular, there is a three-dimensional sculpture of a pig slaughtering in the back dam: two adults are exerting their whole life's efforts to press on the pig, the butcher is holding a heavy pig slaughtering knife in his mouth, one hand is moving the wooden basin under his feet, and the other hand is walking A man and a woman are watching When it comes to the layout of this double courtyard, in fact, it is full of fragments of life. Every room illustrates one thing through some sculptures and objects, but such fragments are really interesting.

birth

This is a bedroom like arrangement. On the bed is a young woman with a headscarf on her head. That bed is just a very ordinary wooden bed, with a cornice, and there is not even a foot board in front of it. In addition, there are two older women, one left and the other right, staying in the room. The left one is standing with a bowl of food in her hand. The right one is sitting on a small stool with a baby wrapped in her hand. The other hand is wiping the baby with a handkerchief.

This is birth, the first experience that each of us will experience in the world. When I saw this, I thought, wouldn't it be more interesting to add some baby crying to this room

full moon

There are no sculptured figures in this room, but a room full of furniture, such as cocks and hens in cages, snacks in exquisite boxes, and children's clothes, shoes and socks on the tables inside

Catch the week

This scene is very interesting. I thought that when I was a child, I certainly didn't hold a ceremony to capture the week. A one-year-old child is crawling on the table under her mother-in-law's eyes, using her small hands to grasp things that have been put away for a long time, such as writing brushes and so on. On one side of the table is the happy mother, and on the other side is the smiling father, while the grandfather is sitting on the chair behind him with his hands gently collecting the beard floating on his chest

To be confused

In a private school, there are six or seven children sitting in front of each of them. In front of each of them are the same furnishings: four treasures of the study: pen, ink, paper and inkstone. In front of them is a thin old man with a melon cap, shaking his head to read poetry.

Weak crown

Another three-dimensional sculpture, in which all the people are standing, the elderly mother is arranging the long shirt and hat on the head for her son who is going on a long journey (maybe to rush for an exam or to do business). Seeing this, I can't help but think of the verse: the thread in the hand of the loving mother, the coat on the body of the son. The son stood in front of his mother, who was shorter than himself, so respectful that there was no sign of his hands moving. Inside are the elderly grandparents and honest father, as well as the little sister standing beside her mother. It says that the son's age at that time was between 18 and 20 years old

Matchmaker

When the children grow up, they should talk about marriage. A woman with relatively fashionable dress comes to a family with a son or daughter and begins to lobby with their eloquence. In short, it's just to get the birthday of the two children. At the same time, she exaggerates some facts n times and then spits them out. She must not blush

be engaged

After the two families exchange posts with each other, they will give each other's eight characters to some people called Mr. Zhang, which means that they will decide the fate of the two children. As long as they close the eight characters, they will let the two families sit together in the high hall to hold an engagement ceremony, which means that the two families will be married from now on.

regular

There is a long time after engagement. Generally, there is no special situation. The engagement will face the facts as time goes on. Of course, the man's family had to ask a well-known gentleman in the local area to show him the eight characters of his birthday again, so that he could choose a lucky day to achieve the second best thing in the world (going to the imperial examination, having a wedding, meeting an old friend in a foreign country, and having a long drought and a rainy day). It was very comic to see the old man's head back, but the family next to him was very careful, only the dry tobacco in his father's mouth To feel a breath of life, people feel that some tragic colors are full of them

Welcome

This scene is very spectacular. A long stream of people is moving along the country road. On the stone bridge with a single hole, there is a band playing, playing and singing. In the back, there are two sedan chairs. In the front, a curtain is used to cover all of them. Who is inside? Guess who is inside? In the back, there is a young man with a beautiful face (in a modern antique marriage I witnessed, the bridegroom is riding a donkey, it is said that he is not good at all) Riding a horse is the fear of the horse in the street after being scared kick people), and then there is a long stream of people.

Nave

This site will soon be used by people on the way to the ground. They will do "three worships" here. The middle hall is the shrine on the main wall. The shrine on the four eaves has six characters "heaven and earth King's position" written on it, and cigarettes curling around it.

Worship Hall

The wedding party finally came back. The smiling groom led the new couple with red headscarf into the hall (but it was their first intimate contact). According to the established rules, a new couple had to make three bows before they could finish the stage, and then they were sent to the cave room

bridal chamber

A big wooden bed will be the end result of their life.

There is no bright moon in front of the bed, and the new couple's face is full of spring. The bride's face finally appeared. It was the first time that it was shown in front of a strange man, the man who had just taken off her red headscarf, a man who would be with her all her life. There is no bright moon in front of the bed, but the red candle in front of the bed keeps shaking until someone blows it out gently. With the advent of darkness, life turns a new page.

Water eight yuan

There are also nine bowls. Today, I stood up and counted them carefully. There are only eight bowls. There are eight people sitting on a table of eight immortals, and there are many tables in the room. It's a wonderful time to celebrate the new couple's family and friends together. In this case, the drunkard always has to be numb, but the drunkard is happy, because it's a happy event for a family

Downtown

After everyone is full of food and drink, all the people who should go will leave, and those who want to stay will stay, because in our society, there is such a custom: three days of marriage, regardless of size.

So a kind of game called knock even Shau came into use. I really can't describe the specific situation. It's just that I have memories of having a new house with others in my childhood. Maybe I want to be happy, maybe I want to get the fruits left by the bride.

Of course, there are some rules for making bridal chamber. It's not that you can make trouble in three days regardless of size. It's just a reason to make everyone happy. Generally, everyone will leave after midnight, because the real protagonist is ready to stage a life and death drama

Come back

All newly married men and women should go back to the bride's mother's house on the third day. I don't know why. Someone will carry something called "piluo" with them. There are some good things from the groom's family.

After returning home, it will be the time for a couple to really start their own life. This is my summary
