Old people in rural areas often say that swallows don't enter the bitter cold door. How do they distinguish the poor from the rich?

As a bird living under the same roof as the farmer, the swallow is recognized by the farmer and considered auspicious. When the magpie loses its good reputation, the swallow is still loved by the farmer.

When I was a child, my best friend had a big swallow nest at home. At that time, I was very envious. I could see swallows flying in and out, busy and busy, and then I gave birth to little swallows, which brought a lot of happiness to my best friend's childhood.

at that time, I heard from the old people in the village that swallows don't enter the bitter cold door, so I secretly examined the difference between my girlfriends' family and my own family. In fact, the difference is not very big, that is, the house of my girlfriends' family is slightly higher and brighter than ours. The only big difference is that my best friend's father likes to grow flowers, and the flowers and plants at home occupy a yard.

when I grow up, I feel that swallows are not picking on the rich or the poor, but picking on the environment. In the past, all houses in rural areas were places where swallows could choose to live in their nests, so they naturally have to pick and choose.

under normal circumstances, tall and bright houses or eaves will be chosen by swallows, and such houses are basically owned by people with good family economy. Therefore, the swallow naturally chose a wealthy family.

Swallows don't like going into the sorrow gate either. The so-called sorrow gate means that there is no happy atmosphere at home, and families that are noisy for three days are not liked by swallows. Swallows, like people, like peaceful atmosphere, so those families with cloudy days and frequent disputes will not have swallows to nest.

It should be said that animals are spiritual things. Although they can't understand what people say, they can feel the happiness of a family by inspiration and are willing to be best friends with such a family.

nonsense! It's not that swallows don't go into bitter and cold families, it's that swallows don't go into families without virtue and kindness. Swallows are very spiritual birds, and they can tell who is a friendly family with virtue and kindness, and who is a hypocritical family that runs amok for the good.

When I was a child, my home was a quadrangle. Every spring, swallows always came to my house to lay eggs and raise little swallows on time. If you look closely, you will find that the swallows that come every year must be the descendants of last year's swallows, and they are the same swallows. Why do swallows come to my house instead of the neighbors? I asked my grandfather this question. My grandfather told me: Swallow is a bird with conscience and gratitude. If you treat it well, don't hurt it, and always protect it, it will never give up and settle down in your home to cultivate future generations. If you hurt it, it won't come to your home. Later, I finally learned the secret of swallows coming to my home. Swallows like to build their nests under the eaves of old houses with eaves facing south, and it is on the top of the main door of this family. This is the problem. Swallows, too, get a bubble when they fall on the edge of their nests. It doesn't care whether there are people below you, so many people "love cleanliness" and hate these hairy guys. Swallows want to build a nest under the eaves of their houses, and there is no way to either tear down their nests or drive them away.

Poor swallows have thus developed the ability to distinguish kindness from selfishness, truth from falsehood, and only then can they have the image that there are more Chun Yan in the house of kindness and more civet cats in the hypocritical family. Is it because there are too many high-rise buildings that swallows can't live without seeing bungalows or what? I hope everyone can talk about it.

Swallows enter the auspicious house

Swallows are auspicious birds that everyone likes.

I remember when I was a child, all the old houses in my hometown had beams and columns. In summer, the lovely swallows fly around the roof of my house, which is very lively.

The scene of swallows flying around the beam and the nest on the beam are the clearest memories in childhood.

In the summer vacation season, at noon, the outdoor sun is burning, lying on the bamboo bed of the old house, with two earplugs full of knowing chirping, eyes looking up at the busy swallow, looking at the lovely bird, catching the spring mud with its mouth, flying home, stopping on the roof beam and quickly resting on the cross beam at home. Watching, lying on the bamboo bed, I fell asleep sweetly. When I woke up beautifully, the little bird's nest had been built on the roof beam intact.

Little Swallow is the most psychic. "Swallows fly high in sunny days, and swallows fly low in rain."

industrious, intelligent and kind people have many similarities with swallows, so naturally swallows will yearn for clean and bright houses to build their nests.

In the old days, swallows flew into the homes of ordinary people in front of Xie Wang.

When I was a child, there were several swallows' nests at home. Because they often defecated, my parents tied cardboard with ropes and hung it under the swallows' nests, which is also a common practice in our place. When we were young, we went to other people's homes to play. As soon as we saw such a similar "building", we knew that the family must be very kind, because the bad guys would destroy the swallow's nest and wouldn't be kind enough to hang cardboard on the swallows.

I don't know why swallows are rarely seen in recent years, but I was deeply impressed that almost every household in our village had swallows' nests when I was a child, and some people even had several swallows' nests at home. What's even more amazing is that when it's cold, they fly to the south, and when it's hot, they actually fly back to live in that nest again, although I don't know if they are still the same swallows.

Actually, I think there is a big problem with the saying that "swallows don't enter the bitter cold gate", because we are poor here, but there are still many swallows nesting here. I think it is more practical for swallows to fly into ordinary people's homes. After all, many people have swallows' nests at home, but they are not rich.

so is this statement right or wrong? I think it has some truth, but it should be more suitable for ancient times. Now it is somewhat unreliable. Why do you say this?

In Lu Xun's article "Young Runtu", Runtu taught Lu Xun to catch birds in this way: "It snowed in our sandy land, so I swept out a clearing, set up a big bamboo plaque with a short stick, and spread it in the valley. When the birds came to eat, I only pulled the rope tied to the stick at a distance, and the birds were covered under the bamboo plaque. We have everything: rice chicken, horn chicken, bighead owl, blue back ... "

From Lu Xun's article, we can find that families with more food are more likely to attract birds, and so are swallows. Compared with poor families who can't even open the pot, swallows obviously prefer large families with conditions to dry food in the yard. It is more convenient for such a large family to nest in their home.

In modern times, especially since the reform and opening up, our living standard has been getting better and better, and the people all over the country have basically solved the problem of food and clothing. One thing is exactly the opposite of ancient times. In ancient times, large families had a lot of food, while poor families had nothing. In modern times, the rich have no food, but the poor keep a lot of food.

"Seven or nine rivers open, and eight or nine swallows come". Now that it's nine, it's time for swallows to choose a good place to nest. Swallows say that birds are beneficial, and people like them very much, which gives them a lot of legends. It is said that swallows do not enter the "bitter cold door", but it is really not necessarily!

Children born in rural areas can probably understand that when we were young, we usually lived in earthen houses, but those earthen houses had no gauze, the wooden doors were not tight, and the doors were open most of the time. Swallows liked to nest on the beams. It's easy to get in and out.

A grandmother who lives alone in our village, swallows go to her house to nest every year. The grandmother is kind, but her family is not very good, but she is kind and usually tolerates swallows coming in and out.

At present, the doors of many rural houses built of reinforced concrete are closed, and even in summer, gauze screens are usually blocked. Swallows can't enter the door of a room, so they won't go in to nest. You see, even if the home is not bitter and cold, swallows can't get in, so naturally they won't go there to nest.

Swallows usually choose a safer place to nest, that is, it is relatively safe for them. There are eaves or beams that shelter from the wind and rain, which are high and not easily disturbed by people, and the other is the convenience of going in and out.

Swallows build nests for personal survival. It has nothing to do with the rich and the poor.

In the past, people felt that swallows liked to nest in wealthy families, probably because the beams of those houses were higher, and the conditions were better than those poor people's shabby houses with air leakage and rain leakage.

In fact, it's quite distressing to have a swallow's nest at home. Swallows' droppings will inevitably pollute the home, but swallows are beneficial birds, and farmers like them, so they can't bear to hurt them. There are swallows nesting in the house, and it is true that the owner of this house is usually a kind person.

some people say that swallows don't enter the bitter cold gate.

this sentence is false, false, false, and the important thing is said three times.

They just like spacious eaves, preferably with balconies, not rich.

our village is poor enough. When I was a child, I remember that there was always a swallow nest under the eaves of my cousin's balcony. But in fact, his family is also very poor. My cousin was only a teenager and my aunt died. Later, he had a daughter-in-law, and when they had children, they were also poor, because no one helped them and everything depended on themselves.

my uncle's family is also poor, which can be said to be a poor household, but I didn't get any subsidies, because all the subsidies were given to people with connections. There is also a swallow's nest under their eaves.

by contrast, those rich people didn't see it under the eaves.

First of all, swallows can't tell the difference between rich and poor. Swallows used to build nests at home in my family, but my family wasn't rich at that time, even poor. However, there is a saying in the countryside that if swallows build nests at home, the family's luck will get better, so there is a saying that swallows don't enter the "bitter cold door".

Furthermore, there is a saying in our country that swallows like to go into clean homes. I'm not sure if this is true, but the arrival of swallows really makes people like it. I remember at the beginning, a pair of swallows flew around my hall from time to time. Soon after, I found that there was more and more dirt on the lights in the hall. Until a mud nest was built. I was worried that the mud would crush the light. After a while, I found that the swallow's parents had a baby, because they heard the birds' calls and because the swallow's nest was quite high, they couldn't see the eggs. Later, I will often see the swallows come back with something in their mouths, which should be for the little swallows. Until the swallow is a little bigger, you can see the swallow's head below. The swallows are going to learn to fly. Many times, it fell off after a few steps, and we took a wooden ladder to send it to the nest. After a period of time, the little swallow can fly, and then the swallow's parents took the baby swallow around the house several times. Then they all left.

One time, a pair of birds, I don't know what, came to my house, and they were pretty cute. I haven't found their nests before, until once my parents stayed with me for a long time, chattering at me all the time and refusing to leave. In the afternoon, I found a nest on the electricity meter at the door of the house. I understood something, but this time is also my most heartache. A few days later, the birds hatched, and I saw that their little heads were yellow and very cute. When they were learning to fly, they were caught and eaten by the cat at home. I hated the cat so much that I fell and was eaten. I couldn't save it at all. Several times I sent it up to lock the cat up, but I still didn't save one. Later, there was no baby bird, but the birds refused to leave. When they saw the cat go out, they would peck the cat. I saw it several times.

But it hurts me once if I don't see it once. After many days, the birds refused to leave. I wrote this sentence on the qq signature. I don't understand what it is missing. Actually, I understand, but I just understand, so it's hard.

This statement doesn't make any sense. When we were young, there were basically swallow nests on the beams of every household in our hometown. Our village was basically in the mountains, and most of them were poor.

even in our stockade, there are more than 5 families, and there are four or five families who are poor and tinkling, but they have swallows coming every year, and there are several nests of swallows in a beam.

My aunt's family is relatively poor, because the family conditions are not very good. My two sons are not married in their thirties, but there are two swallows' nests on the main beam of their house (wooden house) every year, which has never been broken. Can this be said that swallows don't enter the "bitter cold gate"? Therefore, this statement is unreasonable.

then, why don't some swallows go to the "bitter cold gate" to talk about it? The reason is that the swallow nest is made of mud and must be supported under a solid roof. In ancient times, only large families had eaves, and poor families were generally thatched cottages, so that's why the phrase "the old king thanked the hall and swallowed before" came into being, indicating that ancient people thought that only rich families would have swallows to live in. But this is not to say that the swallow is too poor to love the rich, nor does it have the ability to distinguish, just that other people's homes have roofs.

In fact, the saying that swallows can distinguish between "poor people" and "rich people" should be casually said by farmers who like swallows based on their own experience, but there is actually not much basis to speak of.

In my hometown, on the roof outside the ear door where my elder sister-in-law lived for many years, more than 2 years ago, because my nephew and niece especially liked the swallow, my brother nailed a board (see photo), so as to attract the swallow to make a nest to lay eggs and hatch young swallows. Sure enough, the next year, a pair of little swallows arrived as scheduled. They made a nest on the board with thin mud in their mouths, which attracted the family's special happiness and joy, and gave more care to the swallow's nest and its life and lived in harmony. In this way, year after year, the swallow flew away, and the next year came as scheduled, which lasted for more than 2 years. Last year, that is, in April and May, I was also in my hometown. I saw swallows flying in to check the old nest on the original site, and then it took ten days to repair it, and successfully hatched a nest of small swallows, which was completed before my eyes from beginning to end.

According to my observation, swallows like places and people with good light, and there should be wires near their nests for them to stay and rest. Secondly, the position of animals fed by farmers, such as kittens, which can't be disturbed, is related to the environment around the swallow nest, and has little to do with the so-called "bitter and cold family". Third, and most importantly, when the swallow chooses a farm to build a nest, he should have a kindness to care for small animals, and form a small environment where people and nature and small animals live in harmony.
