1, daily necessities
Toothbrush, toothpaste, shower gel, shampoo, towel, clothes, etc. The first meaning of placing these things is that when the daughter gets married, she will move to the man's house with her daily necessities. Another point is that many people stay in hotels on their wedding day, and many daily necessities are either provided by hotels or not used by newlyweds, and are directly put in dowry boxes.
2, salt, soy sauce, vinegar.
Preparing these kitchen spices actually means that the daughter of the woman's family is very capable and has a kitchen under the hall, which is very suitable for marrying home as a daughter-in-law. In other words, the woman's family actually praised her daughter's diligence and housekeeping in another way, and let the man's family cherish the bride.
3. Happy egg.
The meaning of happy eggs is naturally to have children early. This is a good luck. I hope the couple can have children smoothly after marriage. People in China have always believed that having children early is the best blessing for newlyweds, and parents are naturally anxious to hold their children, so this is their blessing and expectation.
4. put jewelry.
Generally speaking, before the daughter gets married, the man's family will buy three gold coins, put them in the dowry box and get the new house on the wedding day. In some places, the gold wares bought by the man will be put on directly on the wedding day. Some mothers will bring jewelry and jade bracelets that they never want to take out, or a promise that my father once bought for my mother, or a wedding dress that my mother wore when she got married ... and pass these beautiful items on to her daughter.
It also reflects the love of the woman's family for her daughter, so I suggest you buy a box with a lock at this time. The wedding day is messy, so it will be safer to lock it up.
5. Press the cash box.
The woman's family will give her daughter some money at the four corners or right in the middle of the box. This money is for my daughter's emergency self-defense. If you are short of money after marriage, you can take it out for emergency. After all, getting married is not easy. Most of the money in the man's family is used for the wedding. You need to spend money after marriage, but you can't go back to your parents' house to ask for it, can you? Therefore, the woman's home will be prepared in advance for her daughter to bring to her new home.
Among these items, parents prepared boxes of money, jewelry and so on. It has existed for a long time, and it is convenient to prepare wedding eggs with oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, that is, all daily necessities should be red, and it is a bit troublesome to buy them all at once.
