Does the woman need to return the gift on the day of proposal?

1. In the south, when the man comes to offer the betrothal gifts, the woman will also give him a set of clothes or other decent items when he leaves home to express her approval of her son-in-law.
2. In the north, people also give clothes, but in some areas, people just give red envelopes or local specialties. So on the day of marriage proposal, the woman usually has to give the man a return gift. Only in very few areas does it not have the custom of returning gifts.
3. Things to return the gift:
(1) When you really don't know what to give as a return gift, just give your son-in-law a red envelope to show your affection. Generally, the number of the red envelope is relatively auspicious, and the amount is based on the man's betrothal money. If the other party gives a betrothal gift of around 80,000 yuan, then the woman can give auspicious numbers such as 1680, 1888, etc.
(2) Local specialties are usually not from the same place as the couple. If the two families live far apart, then you can prepare some local specialties for the man. These are usually beautifully packaged local specialties. Marriage is a happy event, so you still have to be polite and can’t be casual.
(3) Customs: Each place has its own customs. If there is no local custom of giving gifts back to the son-in-law, then there is no need to do so. If there are some specific items, such as meat, fruit, etc., then it is better to follow the local customs.
