. The matchmaker's words of Yq{ y4Y0LK'I4_0 occupy an important position in China's marriage system, and Mencius put "parents' orders, matchmaker's words" in an equally important position. The natural economic form of feudal society confined people's labor, education and entertainment to their families. "The voices of chickens and dogs are heard, and the people will not rest until they die." So there is a big gap between the two, and neither parent knows who the other family is. Therefore, even if their children have grown up, they don't know which one needs to marry a daughter-in-law. The feudal custom has caused people's shyness in courtship. It has become one of the important characteristics of feudal social customs to want a spouse not to show publicly. Asking him or her frankly is tantamount to ignorance. Entrusting him (her) to seek through Taoism is an important manifestation of courtship in feudal times, and it is best to have a matchmaker to mediate. Txt book download network +P8D.Qlh.\x*OL+T

On the evolutionary history of the matchmaker, The Marriage History of China holds that "the matchmaker has the nature of a middleman and existed immediately in the age of buying and selling marriage; Almost buying and selling marriage has evolved into hiring marriage, and the middleman who buys a wife and sells a woman has also evolved into a matchmaker. Therefore, it is difficult to combine surnames and rely on media contact to spread the word of marriage, or' manufacturing'. " There is a saying in the Book of Songs, "How to marry is forbidden by bandits". It can be seen that the matchmaker became an important condition for marriage as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty. Judging from the six ceremonies of the wedding procedure stipulated in "The Wedding of the Rites", no link can be separated from the matchmaker, from adoption, name-asking, Naji, recruitment to invitation and wedding. "So men and women are well-known by media, and they don't pay without media; The man cannot marry without a matchmaker, and the woman cannot marry without a matchmaker. " "On the Law of the Tang Dynasty" also said that "there must be an intermediary in the marriage law".

Not only that, the matchmaker system is an important part of the ritual system: "Lu Huan wants to marry Qi, not by the media, so historians will be humiliated", and marrying without a matchmaker is ridiculed by future generations as violating the ritual law; In Guanzi, there is also "the daughter from the media, ugly and unbelievable".
