Dezhou News Network News (Wang Jieling Wang Xiudai Hou Juru) "Xiaowei, I wish you a happy new marriage! In the autumn of October, Chen Xiaowei of Hanjia Village, Bohai Road Street, Qingyun County, ushered in his wedding. Early in the morning, members of the village's Red and White Council came to his house to help with the operation.
"The number of banquets and the standard of banquets are consistent with the previous declarations." While verifying the number of participants on the spot, the members of the Red and White Council took the opportunity to publicize the policy of changing customs and customs: "Everyone listens to me, Xiaowei's wedding banquet is organized in accordance with our prescribed standards, and everyone will definitely be able to eat well." Please eat slowly and don't waste. ”
In the past, the villagers were plagued by the burden of human feelings for a long time, such as red and white affairs, promotion banquets, Xie Shi banquets, military participation banquets, full moon banquets, house building banquets, birthday banquets... There are many types of banquets. "Fortunately, thanks to the introduction of the county's policy of changing customs and customs, the acceptance of the masses in the village is high, and new tricks such as answering questions and grabbing relatives have also entered the weddings of young people, and the vicious circle of 'human debt' has finally come to an end." Han Jingbao, secretary of the party branch of Hanjia Village, said that in accordance with the requirements of the county's "new marriage affairs, simplified funeral affairs, and other non-handling," all party members and cadres signed a letter of commitment and took the lead in changing the atmosphere.
In recent years, Qingyun County has taken the opportunity of creating a civilized city in the whole country to persistently take the change of customs and customs as an important task in the construction of spiritual civilization, integrate with the practice of civilization in the new era, guide villagers to autonomy, focus on curbing old rules and bad habits such as marriage and funeral, marriage, and marriage, and comparison with each other, give full play to the role of villagers' councils and red and white councils, and the concept of changing customs and customs is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At present, all 381 natural villages, all government agencies and communities in the county have established red and white councils.
The members of the Red and White Council are recommended by the representatives of the villagers and are composed of villagers who are highly respected, enthusiastic about service, fair and just, and advocate frugality. "Everything is difficult at the beginning, the Red and White Council has just begun to run, and many villagers are afraid that others will say that they are stingy and not high-grade enough." Wang Xinrong, president of the Red and White Council of Yangmawang Village in Bohai Road Subdistrict, said. To this end, the village committee on the basis of the red and white council, combined with the economic situation of the village formulated the "rules and regulations of the red and white council", they stipulate that the red and white affairs can not be more than 400 yuan per table containing tobacco and alcohol, and established a set of operating procedures: the owner needs to apply to the council for registration; then, the two sides agree on the relevant procedures, under the premise of respecting folk customs, according to the principle of simplicity, reach an agreement; afterwards, the council and the owner together calculate the "savings", solicit the opinions or suggestions of the owner, and disclose all the expenses. Use the actual expenditure figures to vigorously publicize the benefits of new marriages and simple funerals.
After the unification of the standards for red and white affairs, there were fewer banquets in violation of the law, the economic burden of the villagers was reduced, and everyone praised the strict implementation of the village rules and regulations. "Last year, my family took more than 10,000 yuan of gift money, and when it was more than once, it was several times a day. Now that the policy of curbing the chaotic banquet has been implemented, the gift money has been reduced and the burden has been lightened, and everyone is very happy. Wang Xuechang, a villager in Yangmawang Village, sighed heartily.
For other people's love exchanges, Qingyun County advocates consciously resisting unhealthy trends such as mutual comparison, big operation and taking advantage of opportunities to accumulate wealth, and encourages sending flowers, texting and other congratulatory methods. Nowadays, there is no longer a hard support for the façade and the pursuit of decency, there is less pomp and pageantry than magnanimity, more savings, the concept of new marriages, simple funerals, and other non-handling is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the folk customs are more civilized.
