Catching the edge of the Miao tribe

It is often said that Hunan women are sentimental.

Unbeknownst to me, the Miao sisters in western Hunan are not only sentimental, but also dare to love and hate. When it comes to soft girls, they are lovely and pathetic; when it comes to fierce women, they are fiery and tough.

Then, the matter of love, naturally, there are some not with the flavor of the Han Chinese.

Catching the edge of the field

Compared to the Han Chinese, the Miao people are more open to love, free choice of spouse is more popular, to catch the edge of the field is a perfect opportunity.

Generally speaking, the traditional side of the side of the field, more in the Hmong big year, climbing festival, April 8 festival, dragon boat festival, eat new festival and other large-scale festivals. Miao young men and women dressed in full costume, get together, find the person of choice, there are many opportunities naturally.

Since then, influenced by Han Chinese customs, the eighties and nineties Miao gradually resumed catching up with the market, which became a regular monthly event. In the hustle and bustle of the crowd, young men and women with their own goods to sell or purchase goods, invariably give a lot of "hitched" opportunity. And between the bargaining, the question "difficult one or two", it is also very easy to see "whether the person is smart and intelligent".

However, to find the girl of your choice, you need to have a good eye, and that is the so-called "observing the words and the color".

Geometry of love and lovebirds

Xiangxi region, the unmarried Miao sisters, the chest of the blouse, there will be exquisite Miao embroidery. If a sister has a heart, looking forward to catching the side of the side of the field, a brother over to accost, will wear a beautiful Miao dress, often the chest is a lifelike mandarin ducks. The mandarin ducks are a symbol of love, often in pairs, will not be separated, a mandarin ducks meaning is very obvious - a sister single, waiting for brother to tease.

In addition, the unmarried girl, will pull the cone bun on top of the head, wear bottomless forehead cap, insert silver comb or silver flowers, see no bangs. The first time you look up, you will know the mystery of it.

The Miao family brother saw, the heart has its own calculations, not to a moment of recklessness, to tease the other family Hanzi's hall guest.

Only, observation must also be tempered. The girl's chest embroidered with mandarin ducks, blood and vigor of the man, can not always just stare at people's chest. That a glance drifted past, the heart of the skill, that will have to Miaojia A brother each show their skills.

That said, in the nineties, a lot of Han people went to Xiangxi to play, heard the rumors, the heart of the fire is difficult to suppress, eager to try. Unfortunately, when it comes to the market, people come and go, and not good at observation, eyes mute, always go to aim at the chest of the Miao girls. See single girls okay, people probably turn their heads away, ignore. But there is also bad luck, in the chest of the Miao girl's clothes, see two mandarin ducks, unknown, staring at half a day. Not yet back to God, will be the people's husbands grabbed a hand, set a "hooliganism" of the crime.

The light is sent to the public security department, the heavy is a beating, ate a dumb loss. Unbeknownst to me, the woman embroidered with two mandarin ducks is married, and a lot of jokes were made at one time.

Do it

Miao border region is quite large, slightly different, here to talk about the Xiangqian Miao Hanzi "means".

In the border field, the girls are like the stars in the sky, they are all over the place. The Miao family brother in love with, naturally have to put into action.

The so-called hands-on, the Miao Hanzi own set. If you want to find a sister, and is not married, the Miao family Hanzi with three or five brothers, the ferry step over. A sister if you are buying and selling, A brother will hand their own things directly to each other, A sister took down, indicating that the guy is good, belonging to the type of A sister like, dating play. And in the meantime, the brothers around, are wingmen, the way to assist, is the eight immortals over the sea. Accidentally, there are also, the most afraid of brothers at the same time look at a sister, that is another story.

In someone, prefer another " full of love hormones show love " way, especially romantic. Miao family Ah brother liked a sister, first walked over, sent his love token, a sister if she took it down. Ah brother will be able to then close to a point, with a hand to gently pull the colorful sash of the A-mei. Here, the sister also love the words of the brother, will use the toes to step on the back of the brother's feet, meaning that "if the brother walks, the sister to follow along", which means that the feet.

Of course, there are also big grinning girls, fancy a brother, directly stepped on, one to two, naturally express each other's feelings. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do that. Either the beginning of love, step by step, such as going to the woman's home "pick dung for three years", and then marry a sister home; or to find a quiet place, lonely men and women will go to ......

Songs to pass on the love

The Miao people are good at singing and dancing, songs to pass on the love, is essential. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.

The young men and women of the Miao family in groups of three to five, when they catch the side of the side of the field, they understand each other, so they make a good appointment with the place, or openly or individually in pairs, to go to the song to pass on their love.

If it's daytime, then under the shadow of the trees at the edge of the village, or the place where the stream gurgles, the Hmong brothers get together, and against the Hmong sister's hammock, blowing wood leaves, blowing night xiao or reed-sheng, can also sing directly, inviting the sisters out to sing. If it's nighttime, you can only go to sing in the square of the village or the open space at the edge of the village to avoid confusion. Of course, there are also obstacles to love, a brother hiding in the girl's cottage near the hill or stream, one by one singing their love songs, express their love for the girl, but also to declare their determination not to give up ......

The songs sung during the day, called " Flying songs The tune is loud and clear, and the girls who are far away from the cottage can also hear it. The nighttime songs are called "tearing up the voice", and the tunes are euphemistic so as not to affect the rest of the village. When the girls heard the song, they would change into beautiful clothes, invite their girlfriends or sisters, and go to sing duets with the young men who invited them to sing, to spread love and send love.

At the end of the duet, the man's love for the girl, naturally agreed to the next meeting place, so back and forth, married.

This is the first time I've ever seen a Himalayan woman in the world, and I've never seen one before.

If we are talking about the order of the song to pass the love, can be divided into meet song, youth song, praise song, courtship song, love song, separate songs, etc. ...... If the statute of the song, it is also simple, the first three or five men and women or even more young people collectively sang, you asked me to answer, you laugh at me crazy; then, it is a separate rendezvous, as for the singing of what song, it is The first is to make sure that you have a good understanding of the situation, and that you have a good idea of what is going on.

Jiang blushing self-talk

The vast number of Han men, I think, or some envy. After the Song Dynasty, three from the four virtues, the boudoir does not come out, in addition to Pan Jinlian dropped a stick to support the window, there is no association.

Looking back at today's "matchmaking", either men and women rush to see, talk about the garage gift, or seven aunts and aunts staggering, restaurants to eat and drink.

I never thought that the love of the Miaojiang, but it is natural, naive and romantic. Someone in western Hunan, this scene, but also be able to meet by chance.

Also look forward to, Miaojiang that piece of pure land, can still continue to be so "in love", until the end of days.
