Necessary items for the quest
Some family requires a matchmaker to accompany the groom when he arrives at their door to fetch the bride
The matchmaker, or bestman if there is no matchmaker, will carry a red tray containing
- a piece of raw pork leg which is mum's reward for bringing up the bride,
- at least four or more, even number of tangerines or oranges for good fortune,
- some dried persimmons for prosperity,
- some dried longan in shells for sweetness in the marriage,
- some dried lotus seeds for having many children,
- some dried magnolia petals called “pak hup” to wish for hundred years of closeness and happiness in the marriage.
