Chongqing’s wedding customs and attention to detail
The characteristics of Tujia people’s clothing in Chongqing’s wedding customs are unique. "The customs are simple and simple" and "no extravagance";
"Men and women work hard and have sex, and the customs do not pay attention to clothes"; the local people "do not pay attention to clothes"; "Men and women hang down their buns, The short clothes are bare-legged and the forehead is bright, and the clothes are stained and stained." It can be seen that the Tujia people's clothing has the overall characteristics of "simple and simple". Tujia girls cry to get married on their wedding day. The bride starts crying more than half a month before the wedding, and some may cry for more than a month, at least three to five days. Tujia people also regard whether they can sing wedding songs as a sign of a woman's intelligence and virtue. Wedding crying songs include "Crying for parents", "Crying for brother and sister-in-law", "Crying for uncle", "Crying for sisters", "Crying for matchmaker", "Crying for combing hair", "Crying for wearing flowers", "Crying for father and mother", "Crying to bid farewell to the ancestors", "Crying on the sedan chair" and so on.
Chongqing’s wedding custom of crying to marry stems from women’s lack of freedom in marriage. They use the songs of crying to marry to accuse the sinful marriage system. Today, marriage is free. Tujia girls also cry when they get married, but now crying in marriage is just a ritual.
Waving Dance The Tujia festival with the most ethnic characteristics is the New Year Festival. The song and dance with the most ethnic characteristics in the festival is "Sheba Day", which is also the hand-waving dance. The hand-waving dance is a representative folk dance form of the Tujia people. It originated from the Youshui River Basin in Youyang Tujia and Miao Autonomous County, Chongqing. The hand-waving dance is called "Sheba Day" in local dialect, and some people call it "Sheba Day".
It is a kind of memorial and prayer activity for the Tujia people. It is usually held on New Year's Day and has developed into comprehensive folk activities such as memorial service, prayer, singing and dancing, social interaction, sports competitions, and material exchanges.
In the hand-waving activity, the Tujia people recalled the hardships of their ancestors' entrepreneurship, cherished their ancestors' achievements, and displayed the life scenes of the Tujia ancestors. The entire activity was full of strong traces of ancestor worship
