Many people have heard this sentence, but after so many years, many people have not heard it.
The most incomprehensible thing is three legs. According to our thinking, everyone thinks that pillars are similar to legs, and pillars are also the pillars of a house.
In fact, many people really think so.
If the pillars are legs, how can a house have only three legs? Even the simplest room needs four pillars, but how can a house have only one room?
One * * * adds up to more than ten.
Therefore, it is a big mistake to understand three legs as pillars.
In fact, when you say three legs, you don't mean columns, but the house looks like a triangle with a triangle.
Then why does everyone call the triangular house three legs?
In the past, when building a house in the countryside, the land was square and the geomantic omen was square. It must be quadrangular, so that the fence will be square after the house is repaired.
That's all. By the way, in the past, when choosing the foundation in rural areas, the main house was usually chosen first, and then whether the fence could be built was considered. In some places, it's different. For example, in the north, their land is relatively flat and fences can be built, but some places are too small to build fences, so they will not be built.
This order cannot be reversed. It would be unlucky to build a house after building a fence.
Because in feng shui, this is to trap people in it.
In our traditional thinking, we must make the house square, and at the same time make the house symmetrical on both sides, with three or six rooms.
Therefore, founder is a rule that we have been continuing. If the house is built in a triangle, it is illegal.
It is the most feared of rural village names.
Why are people afraid of building houses into triangles? There are different rumors everywhere.
There are mainly the following kinds.
The first statement: the sky is round.
This statement mainly comes from the theory of Yin and Yang, and is also used in architecture. The sky is round, boundless sky, clouds floating in the air.
The place corresponds to the earth, and the house is built on the earth, so it does not move.
People who live in such a room will live a quiet life.
According to the theory that the sky is round, everyone thinks that the house needs to be built like this and needs to be square. If a corner is missing, the explanation is incomplete and you may lead an unstable life.
But according to the current scientific achievements, these statements are only false, mainly because living in them all the time will cause your nerves to be nervous for a long time.
Because triangular houses are not suitable for people to live in.
The second statement: the four corners represent family members.
In the countryside, everyone wanted to be round and round, that is, Fiona Fang, so the four feet of the house represented their families.
Every house faces south. People think that the northwest represents dad, the southwest represents mom and the northeast and southeast represent brothers and sisters.
If any corner is missing, it means that this relative has passed away.
This is a geomantic saying. Now is the age of science, and everyone thinks it doesn't make any sense. But in the old feudal superstition era, many people went to war just to let their families live a good life.
There is no useful method, so we have to rely on it.
The third statement: family discord
The most widespread saying of "three legs" is that a corner of the yard is particularly prominent, which will lead to family discord. There are several versions. The first is that family members often quarrel, not only with family members, but also with outsiders.
There is also a poor popularity, often falling out with people around you.
When these statements only come from traditional folk customs, they don't explain much, but they may have some sources.
After all, it can't be groundless.
Triangular houses are not popular now mainly because they occupy a large area, but the actually used area is very small, which is a waste of land in the era of land shortage in China, while square houses are just the opposite. Moreover, in the past, food was not enough for my family to eat. Everyone will raise pigs, chickens and other domestic animals at home, instead of building triangular houses.
But in some places, the ground is uneven, so it is difficult to build a square house and a yard, so this proverb may not exist.
But as long as you can build a house that you are satisfied with, that would be great.
