The following is the statement of one net-pal. It was the deep night of marriage. After saying goodbye to uncles and aunts, stepping out of the parents-in-law’s room, I was stooped by the mother-in-law, “Is there anyone pressing the bed tonight? Why there was not a single guy on such a delightful occasion. They knocked their heads to tease the bride during the wedding ceremony of the elder brothers and younger brothers; they pressed for three nights with three or four guys each night, but now…”
“Pressing bed?” My husband dragged me, “pressing bed refers to asking bride to sleep with several guys…” “What?! You…” “Don’t be nervous, I am also on the bed. But…I can do nothing…” “What about the other guys…” “How dare? They just play jokes, and then fold two bedclothes without intervening each other.” “We two sleep under one bedclothes?” “No, I myself, and you three.”
My husband’s cousins played the inappropriate roles. But they seemed to press the bed regarding my husband’s reputation. He had to bow to flatter them and express gratitude for sleeping under the same bedclothes with his bride. If you were the bride, will you refuse the unreasonable requirement? If you were bridegroom, will you accept this custom willingly?
