"No one will see me off at the grave" should belong to the rural proverb "Feng Shui" which has been passed down by ancient ancestors for thousands of years. Now, is there any truth in the old saying that people often mention?
First of all, "1000 points" is mainly about the location of the house. Ancient people in China paid great attention to geomantic omen. In thousands of years of feudal society, from the royal family to the common people, they were very particular about their residence before and after their death! According to Feng Shui master, if the owner of Yangzi House (residence) is rich, but the owner of Yin House (ancestral grave) is not chosen, then he will be poor all his life and his wife and children will live apart. If the ancestral graves are not in geomantic omen, the next generation will lose their roots and seedlings, and future generations will not be able to continue.
Let's talk about "back pit". As the name implies, there is a puddle behind the house. In the vast rural areas, potholes can be seen everywhere, which mainly plays the role of drainage and flood prevention. But in the rainy season, the dirty water and livestock manure in the village will flow into the potholes. Imagine living nearby, not only stinking, but also humid all the year round, and all kinds of bacteria will breed. Living in such a humid environment for a long time will do harm to people. They are likely to suffer from serious diseases when they are young, so there are certain ways to do this!
In modern society, people pay attention to lighting and ventilation when building houses, and villages have rectified potholes, ponds, rivers and canals. Such houses are rare now, so this superstitious slang will gradually disappear with the progress of the times, but we must also believe that the spoken language created by these working people according to their own life experience can also explain a lot of truth in a certain period of time!
