What do you mean by "7 out of 8 are not buried"?

The so-called "seven don't bury eight don't bury" is a custom. No funeral or burial is allowed on the seventh, eighth, seventeenth and eighteenth days.

This is the custom of doing things in the secluded city.

When the patient is about to die, relatives on the side should seize the opportunity to close their eyes and mouth to prevent bleeding from the seven orifices. After death, they should be wiped with warm water and put on the shroud while it is hot, so that they can walk clean. Respecting the deceased means "achieving great things."

After putting the shroud on the deceased, they can be carried to the grass shop in the hall, with adobe as the headrest and face covered with a face covering cloth (Shangzhuang and Fengdian did not cover their faces). If the deceased has a high hall, you can't use Gordon's grass shop, but only a low stool (Shui Gu carried the deceased to the table before and after). Carry it to the grass bed, put it on the altar and the offering, light the ever-burning lamp and incense, put it on the old basin and burn ghost paper. During the mourning period, give the deceased a symbolic meal before each meal.

When everything is ready, you can't mourn (cry) for the time being. First, please ask your parents to ask Mr. Feng Shui to look at the date: the tea mouth pays attention to the date. Don't cry, don't be buried seven times, don't be buried eight times, and the fifth, fourteenth and twenty-third days of the lunar calendar are death days. Whether you can be buried these days depends on whether you are guilty of seven crimes or heavy mourning. If you make a heavy funeral on the day of death, you need to put a palm-sized coffin next to it. Related funeral activities can only be carried out after the selected date.

On the Immigrants of Sophora japonica

During the Ming Dynasty, some family ancestors of this village immigrated from other places.

According to historical records, from the early years of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty to the fifteenth year of Yongle, * * * organized eight large-scale immigration activities, involving 882 surnames in more than 490 counties and cities in 18 province.

Hongtong County is the most populous county in the south of Shanxi Province, which undertakes the main task of immigration. The immigration law of the Ming Dynasty is that a family of four leaves a family of six, a family of two leaves a family of eight and a family of three.

Local officials went through the immigration formalities for people under a big pagoda tree in Guangji Temple in Hongtong County. Forced immigrants dragged their children, helped the old and took care of the young, and reluctantly left their hometown. In order to let their children remember their hometown forever, they told them that one day they could find their hometown, and we all came out of the old stork nest of the big locust tree.

Who is the ancient locust? If the ancestors of the two toenails came from the locust tree in Hongdong, Shanxi, it is not nonsense. According to scholars' research, the migration direction and distribution law of petal nails in Ming Dynasty were consistent, and they migrated from Shanxi and Shaanxi to the southeast through the Central Plains.
