Send tail letter:

When a man wants to get married and pay a New Year call to his wife, he must have a pig's hind leg with a pig's tail, which implies that a man wants to get married. My parents saw this special gift and didn't answer it in person.

If you don't agree with your daughter to get married the next year, cut off the pig's tail, wrap it in red paper and put it in the cloth shoes for the man. The man knew what it meant at a glance and had to ask for it again next year. If the woman agrees, leave a pigtail, indicating that the marriage is coming to an end, and put a red egg or a small red envelope in the returned cloth shoes.

Looking for Moby:

The man's wedding team arrived at the woman's house the night before. Wipe the young man's face with a pot of cigarettes painted on his hand in advance while the young man in the bride's dowry team is not paying attention, and see who found Mo Bi (Tujia means wedding manager).

This custom has two meanings: one is to discredit Moby's face to tease the man; Second, when young men and women mention Moby, they secretly love what they love, which has traces of primitive marriage robbery and also means free love.

Marry a silent professional:

When the bride arrived at the man's house, her mother led her out of the sedan chair. She was speechless when a man greeted a farewell guest. As soon as she opens her mouth, she will reveal the news of her marriage.

Because, in the past, as long as the chief king heard the sound of marriage in the hut, he would cruelly demand the bride's first night right. In order to minimize this tragedy, most Tujia girls used to enter the village quietly when they got married. Traditionally, this custom is still used in some places.

The above is for reference only.
