Silencing the Neighbor's Mouth

 Silencing the Neighbor's Mouth

After deliberating at home and ascertaining what the price of sinamot, (mahar) then the king of custom came again to the house of the woman

 That is called’Marhata sinamot’ in a row of batak customs. There was a slight difference in Netta village that I saw from the customary party in Jakarta.

If in Jakarta can still be shortened, but in the village of Netta everything must be in accordance with the customs of the previous ancestors, just like our party before.

If I hadn't listened to the slightest bit about the arrangement of our party, because it was forced to marry.

But at this time, I was serious about following and listening to every event after event starting from: Mangarisika the official visit of the groom's family to the bride's house, Introduction of the two brides-to-be, Marhusip, Pudun Sauta, Martumpol and Marhata Sinamot. It turns out that in the village is more detailed than in the Overseas.

“So this was the first time our party yes Dek, it seems longer the arrangement of the show”

“Ya, actually in the same village in Jakarta different arrangement of the event, so the saying Batak Tells like this; foreign rura, foreign duhutna, foreign luat aliendo tong adatna” said Netta.

“That means?”

“Begini Bang, each region has its own customs, customs from Jakarta we can not force here, and vice versa customary ordinances from this village, can not be brought to Jakarta, Jakarta, but the goal remains the same there is only a slight difference,” Netta said.

“Oh, so.|” I took out a small note from my pants pocket.

“Abang to do?”

“Mau deformed .. I will be King custom from Situmorang”

Netta laughed when I said I wanted to be king of custom

“Yes, good, let us get a new profession,” Netta said laughing.

“Because what I saw from every Batak custom party, the fee for each customary king was quite expensive, once a party, during Arnita's party, the fee for each customary king was quite expensive, customary king who paid for the Nainggolan family once appeared mami pay five million, try to count in a month he four times can call four times five already twenty million”

“Ya, it is already one of the actual professions Bang, but it must be a really understand batak custom, it can only be a custom leader”

“Yes, this is serious learning,” I said holding back laughter, but seeing the arrangement of the event in Lae Rudi's party only heard only my brain was mumbling first.

It is appropriate every time the Batak people want to party, a year before the party everything has been prepared, and it is very draining of mind and energy. But the more lived and learned this Batak custom, the more interesting.

After the customary king went to talk dowry to the women's family, papi asked me to come to know about the Batak custom, so I went along, we were very well welcomed and respectful to the women's family.

But when the bones of the indigenous king of Nainggolan mentioned the price of sinamot, they were shocked to not believe it.

“Mauliate ma amang alai cherished hamu do borukon nang pe on boru ni napogos naso marbapa”

Thank you sir, because you appreciate my daughter, even though there is no school and from a poor family has no father) said Mama Nely.

Even Nelly's biggest one was deeply moved, she hugged her younger sister Nely, their three siblings, and Nely her only daughter and also last child, respectively, naturally their families are moved because their only daughter is married to a man who respects their family.

“Olo healthy hamu ito, asa boi bereng onmu annon borumon”

(Yes, be well, let you see your woman partying) said the bones of the king of Nainggolan.

“Olo Amang, olo raja nami, amang tahhe .. mauliatema di Amatta Debata Pardenggan Basai, alai dilehon rokkkap ni boruku sian family na burju”

(Yes, O king, my goodness .. Thank you to God, Heavenly Father, for giving my daughter a mate from a good family) He cried.

Touched by the little help I gave to lae Rudi, growing great happiness for others, I saw the happy laughter of mama Nely, the pain he felt was as if it was not felt as he laughed happily.

(Act all these families ... Families who have never visited during illness, call all. Tell them, marry my daughter, come all of you we celebrate. Pray for my daughter, to hand out this dowry from your borumu, so that they do not see you one eye again) said our customary king bone, bone said that, because they are one village and already know how their families.

Nely's mother's host cried even more at the bone advice, not just the host, her two children were sad to mix happily. Because they did not expect that lae Rudi would respect them like that, because a few weeks ago Rudi had a fight with his candidate and almost failed, he said, that's why the mother-in-law's family and Nely's family also gossiped all the neighbors.

But this time, they will be silent, and licking their own spit, I'm sure hearing Nely's dowry of that size will all be shocked.

After coming home from the female family, we arrived home, suddenly the mother-to-be called the host-in-law to express her gratitude for appreciating their family.

I was sitting with Netta beside the host

“Contents ma?”

(Who is Ma?) Ask Netta.

“Eda candidates edamu”

“Speaker Ma.” Netta blamed the speakers.

“Mauliate eda Saut, mauliate dokkon tu helaki dohot tu boru tai”

“Thanks aeda saut, thank you for saying the same son-in-law and daughter”

                  

“Olo Eda, healthy ma Eda, asa berengonmu borumi”

“Yes, Eda is healthy eda , so you can see your daughter married”

“Olo Eda, dang hina on akka tetangaon be si Nely dang ledekkon be”

(Yes Eda, the neighbors will not insult and harass Nely again, they do not say again, women fail to marry) said mama Nely.

After hanging up the phone I was curious about the person they mentioned.

“Who is the Host who insults?” Manyu .

Lae Saut and Rudi were sitting near us, while the other family and mom were in the oppung house, the house had been closed since the oppung died, but Lae saut cleans and often sleeps there, so it doesn't look like an empty house anymore.

“That's the house, the arrogant, the person, his daughter and his mother a few days ago insulted Nely

“Yes, Lae they all insulted Neli's sister as we passed by, she said Nely's sister, beggar of love, then spelled it out again, not only is she a mom also in the same digosipin mothers there it” said the Parasian

(Boru-boru na itch> Girls the ganjen>

“Evil them”

“Yes Bang, severe they were, finished the brother was insulted, what else was angry was brother Rudi, challenged to all the villages up the same bottom, and, in gossipkanlah family brother and our family,” said the Parasian.

“Keep what said Nely?” Ask Netta.

“She was silent that big brother, even I hit the crazy guy using wood, palm times I think”
