As the saying goes: "If five people don't sweep the tomb, their descendants will prosper", when sweeping the tomb, which are the five types of people who can't participate? Let's read on.
1. Young children do not sweep graves.
For most people, children are the hope of a family, so many people will bring their children when they visit the grave, in fact, small children are not recommended. Because children's minds are not yet perfect, they do not have the ability to make independent judgments in such an environment, and many times they will imitate the behavior of adults. In addition, the older generation also believed that children could see things that adults could not see, and that if they were allowed to visit graves, it would probably frighten them.
Elderly people over the age of age are not allowed to sweep graves.
Elderly people in their 70s are not recommended to participate in tomb sweeping activities, mainly due to the poor physical fitness of the elderly, and they have to walk a long distance to sweep the tomb, and sometimes they have to climb mountains. It would be a shame if something happened while the grave was being visited.
3. Pregnant women are not allowed to sweep graves.
Older people pay the most attention to reproduction, because pregnant women have a very high status in their eyes, and many families treat her as a baby. For the sake of their own health, they generally place pregnant women at home and do not allow them to participate in large-scale activities. In this case, a pregnant woman will not participate in the tomb sweeping.
4. Seriously ill patients are not allowed to enter the grave.
After all, ancestor worship is also a very energy-consuming work, after all, many ancestors have been buried in distant places. To get there, it's almost impossible, only walking and climbing. In such an environment, the younger generations had to cross mountains and rivers and go to the grave without fear of hardships and dangers. Such a ritual, let alone a sick person, even a normal person will be tired enough.
The sick are already suffering from the disease, let alone completing the sacrifice. In addition, a lot of smoke will be inhaled during the sacrifice, and these smoke will also have a great impact on the disease. For various reasons, sick patients must be taken care of and let them rest at home as much as possible.
5. The foreign aunt does not sweep the grave in the village.
In the ancient thoughts, there is a saying called 'a thousand gold is hard to buy', that is, 'a daughter smiles and enmity', if the daughter marries, it is his husband's family, then the uncle is naturally regarded as an outsider. Therefore, when sweeping the tomb, outsiders are not allowed to go, especially some families with strict rules, and outsiders are not allowed to sweep the tomb. In their eyes, their daughter doesn't even have a chance to enter the family tree, let alone her uncle.
