Walking into the countryside and stepping into the small yard, we will find that the old houses in the past will have the habit of planting trees.
When I returned home during the Spring Festival, I also deliberately went to see the walnut tree in uncle's yard, and the feeling of vicissitudes instantly hit my heart. There is also the persimmon tree in the yard of the fifth uncle, you can eat a lot of pure natural persimmons every year, and your heart is always beautiful.
You can see all kinds of trees in other neighbors' homes, and even cypress trees in the yard, but they are always complained about because cypress trees, although evergreen, are also very insect-inducing, especially in the hot summer, which is really a headache.
Needless to say, the ancients had plans to leave a yard to plant trees when building houses, so there are also matching sayings that have been handed down. For example, this sentence: "Five trees into the Yang house, people poor families also lose", dare to ask everyone a sentence, do you know the old ancestor said that the "five trees", in the end refers to which five kinds of trees?
Since they are all trees, why are they related to the success or failure of the family? What kind of elegance and taboos are there in between?
After carefully communicating with the old people in the village, I finally understood the origin of these five trees, which are mulberry tree, pear tree, pine tree, locust tree, and willow tree. These five kinds of trees are very common in rural areas, and it is reasonable to say that they will not cause any harm to a family.
The reason why they cannot be planted in their own small yards is because most people in the countryside still have some feudal ideas in their hearts. What has been precipitated for thousands of years has long been deeply rooted, unless it is a young person who has been directly educated by modern education, otherwise, it is difficult to change it.
Planting trees in the yard can not only cool down and harvest fruits, but also take the meaning of "cloudy", hoping to bring blessings to future generations. The five kinds of trees summarized by the ancients are some because the harmonic sound is unlucky, and some are incongruous with yin and yang, and then we will explain in detail.
The first and second mulberry trees and pear trees are actually because of the unlucky harmonic sound. Mulberry tree mulberry and funeral mourning are one pronunciation, pear tree and leaving away are one pronunciation.
Let's taste it, who would want to plant a tree that interprets mourning and separation in their own small yard, which is completely cursing themselves for living a bad life, which is contrary to traditional Chinese culture.
As we all know, in fact, mulberry trees and pear trees are still trees that are of great help to people, and mulberry trees can raise silkworms and then get precious silk. The pear tree can provide us with sweet and delicious fruits, and it is also one of the most common fruit trees. But because of the harmonic sound, you can't enter the yard.
Changing places, planting in large quantities is no problem at all.
Secondly, pine trees, locust trees, willow trees, the reason why these three kinds of trees can not be planted in the yard, is because they all have one thing in common, that is, they are related to "yin", which is called "ghost tree".
Pine trees are tough and tough, which is a good moral. But because it appears in the place where there are basically mausoleums, so it is considered to accompany the dead trees, such a presence can only make the mausoleum more solemn, and it is completely impossible to make the Yang House full of vitality.
Not to mention the locust tree, the word itself has a ghost word, which is obviously a ghost tree. But we must understand that the locust tree is not only a flower that can be eaten, it is simply full of treasures, which can be used as ingredients or medicinal herbs. Just because when the word was created, there was a ghost word on the right, which made it difficult to enter the Yang House.
The same is true of willow trees, where they grow have a lot of water, which is also yin. Such trees are actually difficult to plant in the built yard, not to mention the auspiciousness.
After listening to the old people in the village, I roughly understood the reason. However, since it is a saying that has been handed down, the life experience summed up by the ancestors must still have a certain truth.
Even if we look at this sentence with the eyes of modern people and look at these five kinds of trees, it is indeed not suitable for planting in our own yard. The mulberry leaves on the mulberry tree are originally the main feed for silkworms, and this tree is very insect-inducing.
Pear trees have strict requirements for the environment and climate, like light, and are very susceptible to illness, such as pear rust, pear tree black star disease, heartworms, aphids, pear yellow mealworms and so on. Without exception, these diseases are all related to insects.
Pine trees, locust trees, willow trees, such trees grow very tall, the average person's yard may be difficult to accommodate these giants. As they get thicker and thicker, the lighting in the yard is a big problem. When they start to shed their leaves, the rural tile houses will be under undeserved pressure and will cause problems such as poor drainage.
Therefore, this saying still has a certain truth to this day. As a traditional Chinese culture, after thousands of years of tempering, it still has its essence, which requires us to use our discernment to discover.
