What does it mean to cry once every three years?

People in rural areas are very particular about building houses, because whoever has a spacious and bright house in rural areas has a face in the village. Therefore, before building a house, they should find a local Feng Shui master and design and build it according to the location, direction and layout specified by the master. For example, there should be no graveyard around, facing the main surface with the south facing the north, the house type should be geometric, the water can't be backed, and the kitchen can't be built on the mezzanine. There are also some fixed statements, such as There are some reasons why people in the tree pass through the porch, and so on. What does it mean to say today that there is a teardrop room in the house and people cry every three years?

This sentence evolved from geomantic omen. The original words are'' A small room with big eaves drips water, and the small room is called a teardrop room''. That is to say, the adjacent eaves can't be different in height, which is very unfavorable to low-rise houses. Low-rise houses are teardrop rooms, because after heavy rain, rainwater falls through the high eaves, impacting near the low eaves, and the rainwater falls along the wall, resulting in water accumulation in the foundation, which will collapse after a long time. Sometimes, when the storm breaks branches and goes down the river, it will break the adjacent low roofs, causing accidental injuries to families; In addition, the uneven eaves of the adjacent houses will cause poor ventilation and light transmission to the teardrop room, and the room will be humid and there will be many insects in the courtyard, which will make people who live in it easy to get sick. Therefore, there is a teardrop room at home and they cry once every three years.

However, this happens from time to time in rural areas, because everyone builds houses in the original homestead, and the particularity of rural areas determines that houses are built adjacent to each other, and some houses are only a few tens of centimeters apart, which will inevitably form a teardrop house. Therefore, before building a house, farmers should discuss with their neighbors and consult their opinions. After all, distant relatives are not as close as neighbors, and communication in advance can avoid the noise in the later period. Moreover, once the house is completed, it is difficult to change, but sometimes it is difficult.

In a word, the rural saying' home has a teardrop room, and it cries once every three years' is a summary of our ancestors' experience in building a house. Although it is related to geomantic omen, it still has some truth. No matter how good the house is, if neighbors can't live in harmony, it won't be comfortable, right?
