The original novel "White Deer Plain", why the good land was replaced with the bad land, was it just to change the ancestral graves?
Hello:
There are elements of rationalizing superstition and mythology.
First of all, superstition plays a big role. The reason why Bailuyuan was named is because there is a legend that a white deer appears here, which means good luck and happiness. He found a strange plant in Lu Zilin's field. He asked his brother-in-law, and was surprised to find that the plant looked like a white deer. If it grows on your own land, it will definitely bring you good luck.
Secondly, Bai Jiaxuan’s psychological reasons. Bai Jiaxuan failed to get married several times before, and there were also scandals about him. He believed that this was because he was unlucky or because his family's feng shui was not good, which further promoted the situation. Bai Jiaxuan's move to change land.
Finally, it is clearly mentioned in the novel that Bai Jiaxuan used the excuse of lack of money and the relocation of his ancestral graves to cover up that he only changed the land for the auspiciousness of the land. Besides, he still has a lot of land, so changing the land will not have any impact on him. He just wants to give it a try. A simple change of land became a turning point in the rise of the Bai Jiaxuan family.
Hope this helps
