Naji is one of the Chinese marriage rituals, which mainly means divination in ancient times. That is, before marriage, the man must carry his and the woman's birthdates to the ancestral temple to ask the ancestors to judge whether the marriage is appropriate. With the development of society, Naji has gradually become a "small employment" gift.
Xiaopin means that the man will give the woman some engagement gifts after marriage, such as money, clothes, jewelry, etc., and the woman will give the man a hat, SHOES, pen, paper and inkstone and other items after accepting.
Later, because wild geese became more and more rare, people switched to woodcut wild geese. In modern times, three kinds of live birds, goose, duck and chicken, were commonly used to replace the Dien Goose ceremony to pray for the peace of marriage.
