There is an old saying in building a house: "A house does not need three legs, because trouble will make it difficult to get rich." What are three legs?
Many people have heard this sentence before, but after so many years, many people have not heard it.
The most incomprehensible thing among them is the three legs. According to our thinking, everyone thinks that the columns are similar to the legs, and the columns are also the pillars of a house.
In fact, many people really think so.
If the pillars are regarded as legs, how can a house only have three legs? Even the simplest room requires four pillars, but how can a house only have one room.
There are more than ten *** in total.
So it is completely wrong to interpret the three legs as the backbone.
Actually, when people talk about three legs, they don’t mean the pillars, but the shape of the house like a triangle. The triangle has three sides and three corners.
So why do people call triangular houses with three legs?
When houses were built in the countryside in the past, the land was all square, and Feng Shui also emphasized squareness. It must be square, so that after the house is repaired, the walls around it will be square and tidy.
Now that we have talked about it, let me say by the way that when choosing a foundation in the countryside, you usually choose the main house first and then consider whether you can build a wall. In some places, it is different. They are all used to it. Building walls, for example, in the north, where the land is relatively flat, we can build walls, but some places are too small to build walls, so we don't build them.
This order must not be reversed. If the wall is repaired first and then the house is built, it will be very unlucky.
Because in Feng Shui, this is trapping people inside.
In our traditional thinking, the house must be built square and square. At the same time, the two sides of the house must be built symmetrically, and the rooms must be arranged in three, six, or nine grades.
So the square shape is the rule that we have inherited. If the house is built into a triangle, it is against the rule.
It is what rural villagers are most afraid of.
Why are people afraid of building their houses into triangles? Every place has different rumors.
There are mainly the following types.
The first theory: the sky is round and the place is round
This theory mainly comes from the theory of yin and yang and is also used in architecture. The round sky represents the sky, the boundless sky and the clouds Floating in the air is moving.
Place corresponds to the earth. If a house is built on the earth, it will not move.
People who live in a room like this will have a peaceful life.
According to Tian Yuan Di Difang, everyone believes that houses need to be built in this way. They need to be built square and square. If a corner is missing, it means that it is incomplete and may lead an unstable life. .
However, according to current scientific results, these claims are just false. The main reason is that living in them all the time will cause your nerves to be tense for a long time.
Because the triangular house is not suitable for people to live in.
The second theory: the four corners represent family
In the past, in the countryside, everyone wanted to be reunited, also known as the square circle, so the four feet of the house represented their own family.
Each house faces north and south. People believe that the northwest represents the father, the southwest represents the mother, and the northeast and southeast represent their brothers and sisters.
If any corner is missing, it means that the relative has passed away.
This is a Feng Shui saying. Now is the age of science. Everyone thinks that these things mean nothing. However, in the old feudal and superstitious era, many people were in war and only hoped that their own The family can live a good life.
There is no useful method, we can only rely on these.
The third theory: disharmony in the family
The most common theory of three legs refers to a corner of the yard that is particularly prominent, which will cause disharmony in the family. There are several theories, the first One is that family members often quarrel, not only with the family, but also with people outside.
Another kind of person is that his popularity is very poor and he often falls out with the people around him.
Assuming that these statements are only based on traditional folk customs and cannot reflect many things, there may be certain sources for such statements.
After all, it can’t come out of nowhere.
From the current point of view, the main reason why triangular houses are not popular is that they occupy a large area, but the actual area used is very small. In the current era of land shortage in China, it is a waste of land, and square houses Houses are just the opposite. In the past, there was not enough food to feed the family. Everyone would raise pigs, chickens and other livestock at home, and they did not build triangular houses.
However, in some places, the ground is uneven and it is difficult to build a square house, so we have to not build a yard, so this saying may not exist there.
But as long as you can build a house that you are satisfied with, that would be great.
