The original intention and amount of bride price
First, the original intention of the bride price: When getting married, the man needs to give the woman a gift, which varies in amount. Its meaning is different. In the early days, gifts were promised, as well as handkerchiefs and personal belongings. Expressed the consent of both parties and a lifelong commitment. After entering the private ownership society, marriage became a business, bride price became a deposit, and women became materials. In buying and selling marriage, the bride price represents a woman's value, which is directly called the value bride price in some regions and ethnic groups. After liberation, the marriage law explicitly abolished the marriage of sale, but it continued in some places and gave new content. That is to say, after the bride price is given, the engagement is formally concluded, and it is generally not allowed to go back on our word. If the woman reneges, the bride price will be returned to the man. If the man goes back on his word, the bride price will generally not be refunded. The amount of bride price depends on the requirements of the woman's family and the economic situation of the man's family.
Second, the number of bride price varies: this has little to do with the region. Yes:
