As the saying goes:
"Since ancient times, mulberry trees have not been planted at the courtyard gate";
"Mulberry trees have not been planted in the front, and sophora trees have not been planted in the back." There are many rumors about home planting.
In addition to ancient books, many eminent monks and sages in modern times have said that a tree is a nest of ghosts and sentient beings, so do not cut it down at will. Trees of different natures have living beings of corresponding natures.
Mulberry tree is cold in nature from beginning to end, as well as the fruit, and mulberry is a holy fruit that nourishes yin and has strong yin and water in the five elements. The whole tree can be used as medicine. In other words, the mulberry tree is a tree of yin and cold, which is strongly discordant with the half-yin and half-yang nature of the human body. Moreover, the homophony of mulberry and mourning is also one of people's taboos.
Since there are records that have been handed down from ancient times to the present, whether it is true or not must be discussed in practice, so let me talk about my own experiences
1. Surrounded by mulberry trees
In a certain community building, the 60-year-old female owner of a family was in front of the house with other classmates. A mulberry tree as thick as an arm was planted on the flower trough on the platform connecting three households on the first floor. Perhaps out of habit, this family had raised pigs before moving here, and at that time a mulberry tree was planted in front of the house. A few years after moving into the building in the community, the male protagonist suddenly suffered a stroke. After recuperating for a period of time, the male protagonist suddenly began to curse in the air every day on the balcony, urinate and defecate everywhere, and his voice became like a pig's squealing. After a few years, he continued to Lying in bed, occasionally sitting in a daze. The owners chatted in the public garden and persuaded the heroine not to plant mulberry trees, saying that mulberry trees were unlucky. Unable to withstand the persuasion of all living beings, the heroine cut down the mulberry trees, leaving only the stumps.
The remaining tree stumps grew branches and leaves again
But she was the one who took the lead at the beginning. Several aunts in the community followed suit and planted mulberry trees in the public garden. Together with the one on the platform, there were four trees in total, which just covered half of the apartment. I said to the heroine, if you people plant mulberry trees to surround other people's homes, will there be any bad effects? Pull them out quickly. But the words of the heroine made me think deeply. She said that this family is the second son of an old village chief who committed corruption. He lost nearly ten houses in gambling, and only this one is left in the name of his wife. Later, he was arrested and imprisoned for reselling black gasoline because he wanted to pay off his debt quickly. In the end, I spent money to bail him out. Why? Could it be that the four thorns surrounding the house were caused by the bad behavior of this family?

2. Planting mulberries in front of the door. The head of the household is crazy.
Once I visited a low-income household with my classmates. The head of the household was about 50 years old and half crazy. The community arranged sanitation work for him. The female head of the household said that before he went crazy, the head of the household and his father caught a golden snake and ate it when they were looking after their fruit farm in the suburbs. A month later, his father died of acute cancer, and the head of the household Then crazy. The head of the household lives in an old-fashioned two-story house. There are some bricks piled up and a pot of mulberry trees planted in the corner outside the house on the left side of the door. The house is filled with garbage and collected bottles, and the bedroom is also filled with bottles. Unexpectedly, the family The low-income households who cannot afford to eat buy fish and fry it every day to feed the two cats at home. The head of the household even chatted with us and said that he was a member of the Kuomintang, had fought in the war, and had several villas in Huangpu, Guangzhou. ． ．
3. Planting mulberries in front of the door, shops closed down
Once I went to the Postal Bank in the leather market to do business. When I passed by a row of leather shops, I found that only one shop was closed and abandoned. When I got closer, I saw a mulberry tree planted in front of the door.
