BTW, may i know what makes you want to watch this non conclusive drama? I mean, it's neither new nor that interesting. As I posted the episode title and read each episode on Baidu, i felt the storyline is the usual trope of return for revenge...
Sorry, i don't know your level of comprehension of watching Chinese shows without subs... For me, if i'm excited over an interesting Kdrama and couldn't wait for the subs, i can roughly guestimate the happening in the unsubbed Kdrama to cure my curiosity and then watch the subbed version for full understanding.
if you really want to watch this, you can first watch one episode and then read the googled translated plot summary in Baidu. One thing to note though is that the plot summary on Baidu is incomplete, just highlights of some scenes... If need to, you can ask me later
The series is still available (but raw) on Dramacool - search by 愛你 萬縷千絲 However, the Ep.32 (finale) on that site is incomplete. Unless you're happy with such ambiguous ending, i won't recommend this drama to you. I manage to find the snippet of the end part of the finale episode but it's a snippet, not sure if that is how the drama ended!!! https://dianshiju.cctv.com/2015/05/24/VIDE1432440555677725.shtml
Pengyoumen, this is a follow-up on our last exchange on matrimonial rites in Are You The One. Here, we have an example of the usual practice shown in most dramas.
oh my, Zhao Yi Qin is finally in a normal length drama. But was this dropped suddenly? and the whole complete series too? Didn't even see this at all on kisskh until now!
So far, there are many variations of Chinese matrimonial rites shown in Cdramas. There's no hard and fast rule…
In other dramas, the tea serving rite in bride's family home are usually not shown. They skip this step and show only the ceremony rites in groom family home. The serving of tea by bridal couple at the groom side is a required step of wedding ceremony. And serving tea to parents-in-law next morning is another customary step required from the new bride in olden days.
But here, everything is done differently - grandpa tea, hairlock, wine drinking and the bride seen lying down and sleeping instead of sitting prudently upright on the bed awaiting the groom's arrival at the bridal bedroom. So, yes you can only assume the tea serving custom on both days in this drama have been carried out although not shown in drama.

The serving of tea at a wedding ceremony is a required step of the procedure. The tea serving to parents-in-law to be carried out next morning is another custom required of the new bride. I assume the director wanted to show out of the norm things (hairlock & wine drinking) instead of the usual routine

The bridal couple is required to bow to the parents (or the most elderly family member in the absence of parents) of both sides. Before the bride leaves home with groom to his home, the bridal couple must bow to bride parents/elderly and serve tea. Then the bridal couple in the groom family home will do the 3 bows (Heaven & Earth, groom parents/elderly and spouse) before tea ceremony.
I don't think Modern couple do the Heaven and Earth bowing anymore., but bowing to parents/elder and tea ceremony is still a must.
