For rural people, these proverbs can sometimes help them master some life skills, sometimes help agricultural production and sometimes even solve many of their problems.
Therefore, these proverbs are an indispensable part of rural culture.
However, sometimes people who have no life experience will feel confused at first sight when they hear some proverbs, because these proverbs describe common things.
Today, we are going to say such a proverb.
In front of the stone gate, the family naturally prospers.
First, let's analyze the meaning of this sentence. Through literal understanding, it is not difficult to draw the meaning of this sentence, that is, putting a few stones in front of the house can have the effect of prospering wealth.
There is also an understanding that people who can put stones at home will naturally be rich.
So, why is there such a statement? What is the internal relationship between stones and family prosperity? Let me tell you briefly.
As we know, no matter in the past or now, many stone materials are placed at home as decorations, such as clouds and marble, which are indispensable materials in decoration.
In the past, two stone lions were often placed at the door of a big family to show their dignity.
"Golden eyes and jade claws hang in the sky, and all animals are surprised.
Anger frightened the bear, and the male bear drove the tiger and leopard to be angry with Ying Ying.
"Poetry, once described them like this.
It can be seen that putting stones at the door is not only for beauty, but its function has been recognized by many people.
So specifically, what is the relationship between putting stones at the door and family prosperity? Let me explain it to you from several aspects.
First, establish prestige and eliminate the door style.
Anyone who has seen stone lions, turtles and stone forests placed in front of the door knows that such doors often show a very dignified feeling, which adds a bit of prestige to the home for no reason, not to mention that in rural areas, more people's doorways are simply decorated, and some even have only a wooden door.
If a person puts two stone statues in front of his house, it will definitely make him different and his style will be improved at once.
In addition, after the busy farming, I have another place to enjoy the cool when I get home.
Why not do it?
Second, attract people and accumulate contacts.
This involves a very common phenomenon in rural areas, that is, whenever someone has a cool place at the door, many people can gather at the door.
The stone placed at the door just provides such a place. When it is hot in summer, neighbors and friends come to the house to enjoy the cool.
From an objective point of view, does it promote the relationship between the host family and them? To say the least, even if it attracts more than just friends, a group of villagers gather at the door every day to talk about their parents' shortcomings, and they can keep abreast of the latest news in the village, which is definitely conducive to communicating with the villagers.
Having said that, some people may be eager to put a stone in front of their house.
Then, the question is, what is the emphasis on the types of exhibitions?
For the ancients, everything placed at the gate paid attention to feng shui.
As far as its types are concerned, the existing sayings are Taishan stone, yellow wax stone, ornamental stone and so on.
Then, let's talk about its style. Stone lions and stone warriors are common, because they symbolize auspiciousness in ancient culture. Some people put Shi Gandang in it, hoping that it can deter evil spirits in the house.
In fact, the stone lion is the most placed at the door.
There are different opinions about stone lions. In some opinions, it is believed that the stone lion is not carved, but an ancient Swiss animal Kirin.
These lions are lifelike, with a bead in their mouth, which comes from an ancient legend. Legend has it that as long as this pearl is included, it can deal with evil spirits for the world.
Lions carved in different places give people different impressions. Often the lions carved in the north are magnificent, giving people a sense of majesty, while the lions carved in the south are small and exquisite, giving people a lovely feeling.
Lions are often a female and a male, and the placement of left men and right women is just in line with the saying in Feng Shui that "men are left and women are right".
Through the above introduction, I believe you have a certain understanding of this sentence.
However, I would like to remind you warmly here. Although it is really unusual to put stones at home, in this age of population explosion, there are only a few people who can have a house where stones can be placed at home.
Don't blindly follow the trend for the so-called "Feng Shui".
Finally, I wish you a happy life!
