As the saying goes, "the east is not connected to the west, and the west is one level lower". Do you think it makes sense?

Reinforced concrete houses have gradually occupied our lives, and the original houses have gradually faded out of our lives. Now most rural areas have demolished their own brick houses, and then built small villas, and the whole countryside has taken on a new look.

As what we all pursue, building a house naturally has many noteworthy places. For example, when building a house, people would choose a good orientation, a good orientation and even the surrounding environment.

Of course, in this era of land and money, many precautions have been diluted. Nowadays, the three words that the construction industry often talks about are safety, economy and practicality. Other than that, nothing else is very important.

Although the present house has changed the previous architectural style, today I would like to introduce a common saying related to architecture. Let's see if it makes sense. This sentence is: even the east is not connected with the west, and even the west is one level lower.

What does this sentence mean? I believe that when I first saw it, my friends would be confused, and I didn't understand the meaning when I first heard it. I asked the local old people before I got my own understanding. That is to say, I would rather take the tall house in the east than the tall house in the west, otherwise it will be one level shorter. So why is there such a statement? The author gives you a brief introduction.

In fact, this sentence has something to do with the people's thinking. As we all know, many people were superstitious at that time and were ashamed to talk about Feng Shui. This sentence is related to geomantic omen, which means that I would rather build the house in the east higher than the house in the west.

At that time, there was a saying that "there is a dragon on the left and a white tiger on the right", pointing to the east on the left and the west on the right. People think that the status of the dragon is very high, so the status of the white tiger can't be higher than that of the dragon, which is why this sentence is circulated.

Another reason is for neighbors, because the sun rises in the east, and if the house in the west is built very high, it will affect the lighting of neighbors' homes. Because proper lighting is of great benefit to our health, this sentence also contains people's simplest thoughts.

But this sentence is not applicable now, because we all live in high-rise houses, and there is no problem of blocking the light, not to mention those superstitious reasons.

The author thinks that a person's luck has a lot to do with his own efforts, and he will never succeed if he only places his hopes on unrealistic things. Therefore, we should choose what our ancestors left behind, what is useful to us, and discard what is useless. Do you think this proverb makes sense?
