When building a house in the countryside, the older generation will say, "If you add a wall to the wall, the family will be ruined." What do you mean?

According to my understanding, let me tell you one thing:

Wall plus wall refers to building a new house on the old house, that is, building a house on it.

In ancient people's houses, the rich used blue bricks, the foundation was stone, and the building structure was relatively solid. But even if someone built two floors, the upper floor was a simple wooden attic. The ancients knew very well that the foundation bearing capacity of a house was limited. Adding stories to an old house will inevitably lead to the collapse of the foundation, so few people will build houses on it in ancient times.

Building a house on a house was a taboo in ancient times. In ancient times, there were few buildings, and the tallest civil residence was only two floors at most. Because there is no heating facilities in winter, it will be colder to live in high places. Anyone who has been to the Forbidden City knows that there are almost no two-story buildings in the Forbidden City, and even if there are some attics, it is not a place where people live.

Since there were few two-story houses in ancient times, why should we spread the old saying that "the wall is built on top of the wall, and the family is ruined?"

This sentence is mainly about residential feng shui, a folk tradition. That is to say, people can't live in a house with other buildings, let alone add some building facilities to the original house. The building must be complete. After the building is completed, no changes can be made to the front, back and left of the original house, such as connecting a room in the front or back of the house, digging a cellar in the house, or adding an attic to the roof.

Because the back house is not integrated with the original main house, it belongs to two buildings, which will destroy the feng shui environment of the original house. Houses pay attention to hiding wind and gathering gas, holding yang with negative yin, pointing to mountains with yin and pointing to water with yang, that is, there must be a backer behind a house and water in front. The terrain is one inch high and the water is one inch low. Negative yin and positive yang means that the terrain behind must be higher than the front, so that the house can hide the wind and gather gas. The high terrain behind the house shows that there is a mountain behind the house, called Zhenshan, which means guarding the house. Also known as Shoushan. Everyone in the family can live a long life, so there is a saying that people manage money.

In ancient times, the direction of the building was south, and the roof of the house was north, representing mountains, and the ground of the house was south, representing water. Therefore, the house should be able to collect water in the house and the roof should be able to keep out the wind.

If the roofs of a building are connected together, or a flat-topped house has a herringbone roof, for the original house, the two buildings are not integrated, but belong to two independent buildings superimposed together. The newly connected story building or roof will be a shock wave to the original house, which will destroy the wind gathering ability of the original house, so it will have a bad influence on the people at home.

There are such examples in life. One person is very lucky. In 2004, after his house was demolished and two buildings were given, the man bought a bungalow. In 2006, this bungalow was demolished and given to three buildings. The man bought a flat-topped house. In order to get more money from the demolition, he not only redecorated the house, but also built a simple second floor on the flat-topped house.

Adding a wall to the wall will ruin the home. This old saying handed down from the countryside is a saying in residential geomantic omen, a folk tradition. The house where we live has a very important roof. There should be no miscellaneous things and strange sounds on the roof, so don't transform it easily.

Even if we live in a building now, if the neighbors upstairs often make a lot of noise, it will have a great impact on the health of people living downstairs.

In a word, my friends read this article and remember that the ancients thought that the height of the roof of a house had a certain internal relationship with people's health.
