Why are carpenters in the east and masons in the west when building houses in the countryside?

In the past, many places in rural areas had this particularity, and the construction of beams on houses did have this particularity. Carpenters are very popular in the East. So why is there such pressure?

In the countryside, Liangliang is a very grand day and a grand banquet will be held. An hour before the bright light, sporadic firecrackers began. In order to tell people who like to join in the fun, a bright ceremony began. At this time, there will be many children waiting for people on the roof to throw cupcakes and zongzi. More is candy, and the scene is no less than a wife married in the countryside. The people who throw candy and zongzi on the roof are mainly carpenters and masons in the country. The carpenter must be in the east. The custom in the countryside is that the east is big, so why do carpenters have to live in the east?

Before building a new house, all the raw materials needed for building a house will be prepared in advance, especially the wood prepared several years ago. Before preparing to start a new house, usually, the main house should bring the carpenter into the house first. The carpenter calculated the length and width of the frame and the length of the beam according to the size of the base.

The previous doors and windows are not the current aluminum alloy doors and windows. Doors and windows are all made of wood. The size of the door and window frame is also designed by the carpenter according to the opinions of the main house. When the bricklayer builds the wall to a suitable height, it will be finished directly. Put the door and window frame on. In other words, the basic outline of the main house is determined by the carpenter in advance.

Of course, it doesn't mean that bricklayers are not important. In fact, the firmness of the house is also suitable for bricklayers and carpenters. The custom in the countryside is that the carpenter is in the east, just like the new wife at home, the father-in-law must live in the east. This is why we build houses in the countryside, with carpenters in the east and bricklayers in the west.
