Would you agree to marry under such conditions?
It is actually difficult to be a Tajik bride. A lot of obligations fall on the shoulders of girls at once. And since in this country it is customary to live with one’s parents, the bride has to reckon not only with her husband’s opinion, but also with his parents and sometimes brothers and sisters.
The day of a newly-married Tajik bride begins as a rule at 4-5 in the morning. She wakes up in the house first. And while the rest of the household are asleep, the bride tidies herself up, puts on the most beautiful dress and goes out to kelin salom – bow.
In general, a new bride in the house is a holiday. These days many guests come to congratulate the family with a new daughter. The daughter-in-law at this time dresses up in beautiful clothes and goes out to meet the guests.
And the usual morning is already a routine: the daughter-in-law sweeps the yard, prepares breakfast and sets the table.
In general, it is difficult to be a daughter-in-law in a Tajik family. The girl must be an excellent housewife, must set the table three times a day, and each time on the table should be a variety of dishes.
The daughter-in-law is also required to be submissive and obedient. She must be able to please every member of the family.
The daughter-in-law also has other responsibilities in the home. She cleans the house, irons the clothes of all family members, etc.
In general, Tajik girls are amazingly strong. There are not many girls in the world who are ready to take on so much trouble for the sake of marriage.
