Xinhuanet reported that Luoluo young men and women living in the mountainous areas of northern Vietnam showed their love in a very special way. They use bamboo tubes with lines as loudspeakers, and boys send messages to their favorite girls through self-made loudspeakers.
If the girl agrees to his proposal, he is going to marry this girl. After a while, both men and women secretly planned to let the girl sneak out of her home first and let a group of young boys "kidnap" the girl to the boy's home. After the man robs the girl, he will kill the pig and hold a banquet to celebrate the success of robbing the bride. Inform the bride's family the next day and ask the matchmaker to act as matchmaker on the third day.
The wedding can be held if both parents agree. The woman sent two representatives to the groom's house and presented a basket of glutinous rice and a cooked rooster. The bride and groom should meet the two delegates outside and eat the rice and chicken they sent.
It was agreed that the groom would take a quilt, a pillow and a knife to the adopted daughter's house the next day. The girl's hairstyle began to change, and her long hair was put on her head, indicating that she had a husband. Although Shangmenlang was regarded as the son of the woman's family at the time of adoption, she was bound. You can't sit on a stool at home, wear shoes and slippers, or enter the room of your mother-in-law and sister-in-law. When parents-in-law are eating, people who come to the door can't sleep. He will pour tea for his parents-in-law after dinner, get up early in the morning to boil water for the whole family to cook, and cast a net to fish.
A few months before the adoption expired, Lang and his parents visited the woman's house again. The two sides agreed on the date of the wedding ceremony, usually between 1 1 and 65438+February after the autumn harvest, which is the second day of the harvest.
On the wedding day, a large group of men's parents, uncles, aunts and brothers all went to the woman's house to pick up the bride. Miss Gong wears Thai clothes on weekdays, but on big days, she has to wear her own traditional clothes. The bride and groom sang folk songs in front of the stairs of the house. The woman used shredded banana to stir-fry sesame seeds and peppers as appetizers and invited the man's guests to drink together to celebrate. After men sing and drink, women invite all men into the house.
The bride's family gave her married daughter a quilt, a cushion, some clothes, a knife, a hoe, a pick, a pig and a hen. When I arrive at my parents-in-law's house, my husband will hold my daughter-in-law in her room when her period comes. If the bride is from this village, she will take it to the man's house. If the distance is far, she can only carry it symbolically for a while.
At this time, the woman spilled sewage mixed with kitchen waste ash, cow dung and pig manure on the heads and bodies of all the visitors of the man, both inside and outside the house. Chaos, chasing each other, very lively. Because of this marriage custom, all the people who attend the wedding of both men and women have prepared two sets of clothes, wearing old clothes first, washing them and then putting on new clothes. This similar marriage custom also exists among Pula people and Xingmen people.
