Qingjiang, an ancient Miao village, still retains the ancient and traditional wedding customs, which makes me feel a little mysterious for many years of wandering away from my hometown.
One autumn night, Ah Guang, a handsome young man from Miaozhai, got married. Since we were young, we have been good partners in cattle herding together, coupled with the same characters, invited me to be a groomsman and experience the mysterious beauty and happiness of a Miao "stealing" daughter-in-law.
Although the word "steal" is not entirely appropriate in summing up Hmong customs. In other words, the handsome boys of Miaozhai took the relics to miaozhai where the girl lived when the dream was dark, and went to the miaozhai intersections in batches to stand at various intersections in Miaozhai to prevent the girl from getting married and being found by her family and running away. Then, in the middle of the night, the groom went to the back door of the girl's house with several experienced elders, and the girl quietly took the dowry (miao and silver ornaments) from her mother's closet and threw it from the crack of the door to the groom hiding in the corner behind the door, and the groom took the accompanying elder and hurriedly delivered the treasure to the groomsmen waiting outside the village.
Walking to the bridegroom's elderly choice of good birthday auspicious seconds, the girl took advantage of her father's sleep, in the mother's advice silently from the back door of the room, the groom took the bride's hand, hugged his arms slowly and quickly to say goodbye to the mother-in-law, the two elders put a souvenir (glutinous rice, sugar, meat) on the girl's doorstep, in order to inform the girl father that his daughter was married last night, three days and three nights later the new relatives came to visit.
Walking to the protective tree in the village, the bride's good sisters have been waiting for the new aunt's happy candy for a long time. After the groom sent glutinous rice, meat, and candy to everyone, he put a copy under the tree of the village, leaving it for the villagers to find their own girl running away late at night, and then look here to see which girl is married? Which girl is the bridesmaid? At this time, the groomsmen also came to the protective tree to invite the bridesmaids to go to the bride's new home.
"Stealing" the kiss, the strange groomsmen and bridesmaids began to know each other, and a new love may begin.
Below, let's walk into Qingjiang Miaozhai, Nangao Township, Danzhai County, restore the authenticity of traditional customs and culture, and make a superficial interpretation in a certain aspect.
This is the happiness of the groomsmen in the Miao village, giving the village girl a light and secretly wearing the clothes of the Miao people under the pavilion at the head of the village. Hide? I feel shy for fear of meeting my brother in the village or being discovered by my brother in the village.
Hmong clothes are not easy to wear. This time I understood that the Miao girls have a deep sisterly feeling, it is difficult to provoke, there is no mood, and there is almost no chance to talk. I'm one of the lucky ones
Wear, this is a profound knowledge, very exquisite. However, although the girl did not explain it clearly, its expression conveyed the spirit of Miaozhai's cultural transmission, and she heard and heard that the traditional cultural essence of the predecessors was skillfully mastered, which was really valuable.
This gold chain hanging around the neck, wearing bright and colorful flowers on the chest, is considered to be finished. The girl told me that this set of clothes was handmade by my mother in 1 and a half years and was worth more than 10,000 yuan.
I like the feeling that there are some moons and stars, and beautiful women dressed in Hmong costumes strolling through the tranquil Miao village. Even though today is the marriage of another good friend of this girl that makes her look so melancholy, I still dream of having a play?!
Who wouldn't want to go to Miaozhai to have a heartless and lungless sexual encounter? I am curious that here you can also sing Miao songs, blow wooden leaves, you can ask your sister to enjoy the moon and say dreams. Maybe it's a different state of mind, as people say.
It is rare for a person to have a few good sisters in life, and when they are dressed, the sisters have to turn around a few times to check where the asymmetry is. Where are you still not satisfied? Beauty, the pursuit of beauty, this is the quaint quality of Miaozhai.
"When you're dressed, it's time for me." The girl sighed. Because this is the painstaking effort of the elders, the most precious gift given to themselves.
Would you be curious? I thought, if I could, I would also like to develop a set of Hmong costumes tomorrow, women's clothing for dear goddesses, men's clothing for my favorite self!
In Miaozhai, the elders will make a set of costumes for their daughters, and when they get married, they will wear beautiful happiness!
In fact, the most important thing about stealing relatives is to greet this group of bridesmaids well, which should be the most willing thing for all the groomsmen in the world to be happy. Ladies and gentlemen, shouldn't we still express this time?
If it were you, would you be willing to marry such a daughter-in-law? In the mysterious kissing, I am full of respect and joy for the bridesmaids who send the kisses, and in the dress, their image of the groomsmen touched the little heart of the groomsmen and jumped, did you make it?
When you have to let her show her teeth, I guess tonight's date has a drama!
Don't believe it, you come to Miaozhai, we will make an appointment
Come on a long trip and have her with you!
Go to Miaozhai to experience a strange love, sit on the terraces, look up at the stars, count the stars, look at the moon, hold the warm little hand, and happiness begins in Miaoxiang.
When she gives you the gift in her hand, she hopes to meet at this place tomorrow night. If you still want to come back, collect the gifts! There is only such a beautiful opportunity in a lifetime!
When Brother Ah Ben leaned on Ah Mei's little hand and showed it to us, it was really not going to die, but to be happy! Happy you, happy me, and happy with the smiling Yang Bao Brother!
One kiss, one trip. In Miaozhai, feel a different culture, when you lurk with your heart, quietly appreciate everything here, you will be healthy, you will be happy, you will find your original self.
Qingjiang Miaozhai is a good place for a happy family to experience and leap together. And you are the happiest person in Miaozhai.
