Does Feng Shui say that selling a house cannot sell a bed?
Most of the old sayings in rural areas are difficult to understand literally. Especially for urban people, many rural old sayings are "monk Zhang Er is confused". Although some old sayings are outdated, there are still many that have certain reference and reference value. And "Selling a house does not sell a bed; selling a child does not sell a mother" is a very classic rural saying. I believe many rural elders have heard of it, and they are still very particular about it now. So what does this rural saying mean?
The literal meaning of this old saying is that when selling a house, everything in the room can be sold, but the bed cannot be sold. When selling livestock raised at home, the new offspring can be sold when they grow up a little, but the mother of the livestock cannot be sold. Do you know why?
Sell the house but not the bed
For farmers, the house is the most valuable thing. They will never sell their house unless they have to. When some people sell their houses, they will basically sell them together with some of the furniture in the house, but there is one piece of furniture that cannot be sold, and that is the bed.
Actually, the main reason why the bed cannot be sold is that I want to leave some thoughts for myself so that it will not be sold out. Because the bed accompanies one to sleep every day, it can be regarded as having a certain degree of affection. Some people still cannot sleep soundly without their own bed, that is, they are in love with the bed. Of course, there is another reason, that is, most furniture is accepted by others, but there is a taboo about beds.
The older generation believes that it is unlucky to buy a bed that someone else has slept on, so even if you are willing to sell it to others, others may not want it. Since you don’t want it for anyone else, you might as well keep it for yourself as a thought. Some people also say that in the past, some beds in rural areas were made of precious wood, which was very valuable. If you keep the bed, you may make a comeback. This explanation also makes sense!
