The parties declare that there is no strong kiss, and strong kiss is a traditional custom.
Recently, several videos circulating on the internet have stunned the majority of netizens. The general content of the video is that on the seventh day of the first month, a wedding scene at the Intercontinental Wedding Center in wuzhou international Square in Yancheng seems to be "drunken father-in-law kissing the bride and daughter-in-law in public at the wedding scene". Due to the sudden incident, relatives and friends at the scene stood up and cheered and applauded. Someone shouted an accident, and the host was shocked, but he just shouted "alas, alas, alas" helplessly to stop it.
As soon as the video appeared on the internet, netizens commented like a flood, almost condemning this behavior one-sidedly: "It is really insulting to make such an outrageous move in full view of the public." "This let the groom's son? What does this make outsiders think? How does this make her family deal with it? " "Isn't this a blatant crime?"
On February 27th, a text entitled "Solemn Statement by the Attorney Authorized by the Parties to Gong Qiang Kissing the Bride" was issued through the official WeChat account of Jiangsu Dazhi Law Firm. The statement said that recently, relevant units and individuals published or reprinted articles, videos and photos. On their websites, WeChat, friends circle, Weibo and other networks, many netizens watched and posted, and there were many negative comments, which did great harm to the originally happy family and adversely affected the good image of Yancheng's simple folk customs.
This statement shows: On the evening of February 22, 2008, Mr. Bian hosted a banquet for relatives and friends in wuzhou international Ballroom to celebrate the marriage of his son and daughter-in-law. All the people present were Mr. Bian, his family, relatives, friends and colleagues. This is a private family gathering. In the video, in a specific place and atmosphere, Mr. Bian made a "performance" action that seemed to kiss his daughter-in-law but was actually a fake kiss according to the traditional custom of "disturbing the bride" in Yancheng. This action is purely to meet the psychological expectations of guests and friends attending the banquet at that time and create a festive atmosphere. That's not a kiss, and there is no such thing as a bride's strong kiss.
"This incident is an infringement on the privacy of Mr. Bian and his family, and it is also an insult and slander to Mr. Bian's personality and reputation. It constitutes an infringement on the privacy, reputation and portrait rights of citizens and should bear legal responsibility according to law." The statement called on the relevant units and individuals to immediately delete the words, photos and videos about "Happy Dad Kissing the Bride", immediately stop the infringement and eliminate the negative impact. Mr. Bian and his family reserve the right to investigate the legal responsibilities of relevant units and individuals according to the situation.
Noisy Bride is popular in Yancheng.
"This is a common phenomenon in Yancheng. Whoever gets married and doesn't make trouble feels like not getting married. " In the almost one-sided accusation of netizens, the reporter of Modern Express found that some messages from local netizens in Yancheng expressed different views. Some netizens said that at the wedding scene in Yancheng, there is indeed the practice of being a father-in-law and a new wife. For example, let the father-in-law carry a rake, wear the red clothes of the ancient groom's official, wear an official hat, pull the daughter-in-law with a rope or carry the bride around the field; Hang two bottles of yogurt on the bride's chest and give them to Grandpa Xi.
"Most weddings are noisy, and the degree and pattern are basically different." Mr. Qiu is from Yandu District, Yancheng. In his forties, he has seen many scenes of "noisy bride". "Brothers, let the bride sit on a stool, several brothers together. Then I will walk at the front of the line, wearing an ancient festive official robe and holding gongs and drums in my hand. I'll knock as I walk. My grandmother walked for a week at the back of the line, holding a key prop in her hand and wearing sunglasses. Relatives and friends at the scene will also set obstacles for me to pass. " Mr. Qiu said that there will also be a big sedan chair on the scene, which means: I like my father-in-law and the bride to get married, and I like my grandmother to be invisible and open the door for the couple.
In order to cater to the custom of "disturbing the bride", most local wedding companies in Yancheng have a set of special equipment, which generally includes: official clothes, official hats, nails and rakes, gongs and drums, keys, sunglasses, real estate licenses and other props used by Grandma Xi. The reporter of Modern Express contacted five wedding companies randomly, and four of them had wedding equipment. "If there is no trouble, how to make trouble, the owner will seek the opinions of the main family in advance." Chen Zhong, the person in charge of Dafeng Happy Wedding Company, said that most of the troubles were friends, relatives or neighbors at the scene, but now most of them are civilized, and there is almost no physical contact between the father-in-law and the bride.
