I happen to be a Chinese from Meizhou. First of all, welcome to the beautiful woman to marry in Meizhou. I wish you a long life together, full of happiness. There is indeed no such thing as an engagement here. There is no definite amount of gift money for marriage. Generally, it is a good omen with a number like 9 or 8. The poor have their own lives, the rich have their own lives, and the rich have their own lives, no matter how much money they have. Preferring boys over girls is out of the question now. Hakka people pay more attention to thrift, respecting the elderly and caring for the young. If you talk and laugh with the old man, the old man will be very happy. Houses generally depend on young people, and the elderly don't have much money. After all, this is not a very wealthy area. In addition, there are no special customs. Everything is kept simple and extravagance and waste are not supported.
