Betrothal In the old days, when men and women were in their teens, parents would ask matchmakers to find marriage for their children. As long as they were of suitable age, family background, and zodiac signs, the parents would make an appointment to make an auspicious date and initiate the engagement. Nowadays, young people in rural areas are often introduced to love through matchmakers. After both parties agree and their parents approve, an auspicious date can be agreed upon. At that time, the woman will be accompanied by her mother, sister-in-law and others to the groom's home, which is called a "blind date". The man will host a banquet in honor of her, and give her a betrothal gift and cash. At the same time, both men and women exchange "engagement contracts", which is called "Xia Qi" or "Chuan Qi". The amount of money and goods varies depending on the family's wealth. There are also some young people who fall in love freely first, and after obtaining the consent of their parents, ask a matchmaker to arrange an engagement. Most of the young men and women in the government establish relationships while working and studying, fall in love freely, and get engaged with the consent of both parents. Once a man and a woman are engaged, the man will give the woman a gift during the holidays, and the woman can enter and leave the man's house and take care of the housework for him.

Sending a date is also called a "happy letter". When rural young people get married, within a few months before the marriage, the man will choose an auspicious day based on the woman's birth date and zodiac sign, and write a fortune note, commonly known as "looking at the date." ". Wrap the "year life note" in red paper on both days and months, and send it to the woman (mostly by a matchmaker). It is commonly known as "send the day", "send the year life" or "write the happy letter". When writing a wedding letter, you should bring moxa, incense, bran, and salt, which symbolize sweet love, wealth, and a good relationship. The "sending date" must be agreed upon in advance with the girl's parents, otherwise she will be criticized. After the woman receives her birthday notice, she can prepare a dowry and prepare to marry her daughter off. In the old days, wealthy families would give eight or more items as gifts, and some would even give them rouge. Generally, farmers give away five or five large items (a cabinet, a table, a pair of horses), etc. Some don't have any escorts at all. After the liberation of the country, people were given different types of clothing when getting married, most of which were daily necessities.

In recent years, in addition to necessary furniture, escorts have been given clothes, sewing machines, radios, large wall clocks, bicycles, and several bunks and covers (bedding). When young people from urban government agencies get married, the man usually buys furniture.
