These days, I spent much effort to find a proper present for one of my friend who will have his wedding on May 1st.
Usually, we only need to prepare a red packet with some money in it and take it to the newlyweds when attending their wedding ceremony. It doesn’t require much effort. But, choosing a gift for wedding is not so easy. The gift must be pretty and meaningful.I finally found one: a picture frame which is named “Bai Nian Hao He(合)” (“Bai” hundred, “Nian” year, “Hao” good, “He” together). This word is always used by Chinese people to bless newlyweds because it means have a long and happy and prosperous life together.
Why it is named like this? As you see, the frame is in the shape of a lock and with lotus as its main figure. In Chinese language , the lotus is also called “He（荷）” , with same pronounce of the “He (together)”; and the lock can lock the love between bride and bridegroom forever. So when they are combined together on the frame, the frame was named “Bai Nian Hao He”.
