During the first day of this Chinese New Year, my mom went to propose the marriage to my brother’s GF family. They accepted the proposal and they will check for a “good” date to hold the wedding.
After getting the time and date of birth of both of them plus the parent (The information is to calculate the perfect date. This is an old Chinese custom). The wedding will be officially set on early June this year. I was very surprise with the urgency. It is only 4 months left to prepare the wedding. We are thinking like end of this year. Anyway, this doesn’t bother me much as I am not at my hometown most of the time. What I need to worry is how to get slim before the wedding. LOL.
They mention to my mom that those people with horoscope of pig and rat can’t watch the bride step into our door. This is avoiding bad luck. And they also asked my mom to pray to the god. Hmmm. is this going to far? And my mom is a free thinker.
Oh! Oh! I almost forgot the fun part. My brother and I will need to provide a pair of pant for the couple to hang on the door; they will need to walk under the pants. I’m also not too sure the actual reason for doing this. The possible reason is both of us are single and hopefully will not bring bad luck to us. Should I provide them a red G-string? Ha ha
