As the saying goes, "When there are four kinds of happiness in a house, there are many capable people in the family." Which four kinds of happiness are they referring to?
Whether in rural areas or in cities, people like to seek good luck in everything. In order to express people's expectations for a better life, the older generation summed up a similar saying: when four good things appear in the house, , there are many talented people in the family, so what does the four joys that appear mean?
1. Dead trees bloom. In rural areas, because people’s houses are very spacious, people will plant trees in their yards. This not only allows their family members to see a vibrant side, but also improves their feng shui. It can be said that Kill two birds with one stone. However, trees also have their own life cycle, and they inevitably wither and die. People feel very happy when dead trees are reissued, which means something good must be happening at home. In the concept of ancient people, ancient trees are an ancient symbol, symbolizing a loyal family. Gu Mu and Quan Shui are representatives of the family and will never leave. Such a home will definitely be happy and prosperous!
2. Vicious dogs guard the door. In the eyes of people today, it is very common to keep dogs. This is not a happy thing. However, in the eyes of ancient people, dogs are a symbol of wealth. For this reason, there is a saying: "Pigs are poor and dogs are rich." In ancient times, dogs were as noble as horses. Because those who raised dogs at that time were from large families, and ordinary people couldn't even feed their own stomachs? There is a saying called "shit". The richer the family, the angrier the dog becomes. The more ferocious the dog, the more the dog represents the family's wealth.
3. Swallows flying in front of the hall. As we all know, in the past society, most of the houses people lived in were thatched houses, and swallows especially liked to build nests on higher houses. These tall houses can only be afforded by large families, so there is a rumor that "swallows do not enter poor families." The ancients believed that flying swallows in front of the church was a happy event, indicating that the family was prosperous and that the swallow's hard-working spirit was worth learning from future generations. It is diligent, courageous, and contemplative, and is an object of study for people.
4. Spiders hang silk. In rural areas, spiders generally like to weave webs in uninhabited houses, but there are no spider webs in popular houses. Therefore, many people believe that a densely populated home with spider webs is a symbol of family decline and lack of popularity. In fact, this idea is wrong. In the ancient people's concept, spiders are also called "Xizi". This is a good sign of happiness and wealth. For this reason, there is a popular saying "Spider Crane, God of Wealth".
It is said above that "if there are four joys in a family, there are many talented people in the family." In fact, a happy family cannot be separated from the efforts of the family. A family must be diligent and trustworthy and respect their parents. Even if they are not rich, at least the family atmosphere is harmonious. Only in such days will things get better and better, and the family will become richer and richer.
