The origin of marriage

Marriage has certain social background. In ancient times, the communication between men and women was not as open as in modern times. Men and women can fall in love freely, even they can live together and try to get married in a short time.

In ancient times, women's travel was very strict, especially in the era when Neo-Confucianism prevailed in Zhu Cheng. Ladies have a special boudoir called embroidery room, that is, they drill around the room to do needlework. Most of the time, they seldom go out, just embroider in the room, so it is called the embroidery room, so it is easy to keep them from going out.

Even when men were more free, the girls were locked in the embroidery room, and it was hard to see the true colors of the girls anyway. When men and women reach the age of waiting for marriage, they call their parents' lives. According to the matchmaker, marriage is arranged by parents.
