Why do you say "owner", "landlord" and "owner" instead of "south house" and "west house" ......

Since ancient times, the East House has been built, and the old houses in China are generally the main houses facing south. The east wing of the main house was rebuilt on the front two sides, and the first room of the main house was built. It must be the house of the owner or the most authoritative person in the family. Even the younger generation and servants can't live in it, let alone rent it to outsiders. The so-called landlord is the person who lives in the first building in the east, which means the owner.

Both the landlord and the owner expressed their master's mind.

As for why "East" is the "Lord", the Book of Rites Quli Chapter records: "The Lord is in the east order, the guest is in the west order, and if the guest falls, it is in the main order. The host said nothing, and then the guests returned to the west stage. " This sentence is about the etiquette rules between the host and the guest. As can be seen from the text, the position of "East" represents the owner. We usually refer to the "host" (the host treats us) and the host (the allusion comes from the Spring and Autumn Period, when the State of Qin attacked the State of Zheng, provided logistical supplies to the State of Qin, and requested the withdrawal of troops, so it was called the host country because Zheng was in the east of the State of Qin).

Further study, in the astrological theory of the ancient Book of Changes, there are four great beasts guarding the four palaces in the southeast and northwest, namely the Black Dragon in the East Palace, the Zhu Bird in the South Palace, the White Tiger in the West Palace (Xianchi) and Gong Beixuan Wu. It also belongs to 7 stars, a total of 28 stars. Seven nights of the East Palace Black Dragon: Jiao, Kang, Bian, Fang, Xin, Wei and Ji. Records of the Historian Tianguan Book record: "East Palace is a dragon, room and heart". As the totem of the Chinese nation, "Dragon" is a symbol of good luck and long-term. The ancient emperor claimed to be a dragon. Therefore, it is understandable to respect the "East".
