Why do you say "selling a house without selling a door, selling a cow without selling a rope"?

People living in rural areas usually think that there are more or less villagers, and they will hear some very interesting words from very old people in the village. It sounds like poetry, but it is very smooth. That sounds rude. In fact, many people didn't know it when they were young, but they didn't know it until they grew up. There are many such rural words in the countryside, but some cultural people in the city don't like to hear them, while the old people in the countryside firmly believe in the truth contained in them. Does this word mean anything? Is there no exact definition? But in some cases, it should be understood that these proverbs have some truth.

This is also the reason why rural horses have not disappeared after thousands of years of historical baptism. Buyers insist on using ropes and unconsciously "sell houses, doors, cows and ropes" in rural areas. I think this sentence is also very interesting. Why can't we sell doors and ropes when we sell houses and livestock? To this end, I asked the old people in the village. Let's listen to the old man!

In the modern sense, this statement that "houses are for sale, not doors" may be somewhat difficult to understand. Why can't I sell the house and the door? As we all know, our house was special when it was built. The most important thing in the family is the door. The orientation, style and style of the "door" determine the geomantic omen of the house and his face. "Door" corresponds to a person's face (appearance). Before the house was sold, the door and the house were also separated. Selling a door is like selling your own face. For example, the door also represents many meanings, so "doorway" means that it is difficult for families to sell their houses now, but there will be "doorways" in the future. That's why there is the saying "sell or not".

Why sell cattle to others or not? It should be said that this started in ancient times, because in the past, cattle played a very important role in farmers' minds. Unlike now, people only make money by selling cattle. In ancient times, so far, there was no high-end agricultural machinery, and "cattle" was an important tool for farmers to participate in agricultural production. At that time, people's cattle had a high status, just like being close to important family members. Even if you sell a cow, if you tie a rope with one hand, it can be a souvenir. In the past, cattle were an important fixed asset of farmers' families and a symbol of the most important wealth in the family. The rope that binds them is a symbol of procrastination. That's why there is a saying that "selling cattle does not sell ropes". After listening to the above explanation, do you understand? This kind of country horse is not suitable for modern times. At present, real estate companies are everywhere. When you sell a house, there is a door. Just because you bought a house doesn't mean you have to tear down the door and not sell it to others. The same is true of cattle. Nowadays, cattle in society are different from the important tools used by farmers. They are usually delicious food on people's table.
