Why is it unlucky to have twins?

After a couple in Yunnan gave birth to twin sons, they were forced to divorce by the whole village because of bad luck. In the end, the two people spent 1.5 million yuan to slaughter 10 animals for superstitious activities to eliminate disasters.

The young couple gave birth to twins, which should be something to celebrate. However, after giving birth to a pair of twin sons, a young couple in Luoda Town, Menghai County, Xishuangbanna Prefecture was forced to divorce by villagers or broke off relations with their parents. Faced with such a difficult choice, they were finally forced to accept the cost of 10.5 million yuan for slaughter10 animals for superstitious activities to eliminate disasters. Duan Jinhua, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Xishuangbanna State Committee, said that relevant customs were banned in the early days of liberation. It is illegal for anyone to do it again. He suggested that the relevant parties report to the local government and have informed the relevant departments of Menghai County for investigation and handling.

The young couple were so happy that they were forced to divorce.

Zhu Bian, 22, is a Hani villager in Laobangyue Village, Mengban Village Committee, Luoda Town, Menghai County. Three years ago, when he was working in Jinghong, he met Zhang Xiane, a Han woman from Fengqing, Lincang, and they got married at the beginning of this year.

In mid-September, Zhang Xiane gave birth to a pair of twin sons in Fengqing County People's Hospital. "We were all very happy at first." Zhu bian said, but after the news was sent back to Luo Luo's hometown, it suddenly caused a storm.

"The villagers said it was unlucky to have twins." Zhu bian said that the whole village forced him to divorce his daughter-in-law and give up his children. Although he didn't want to, he was called back by the villagers in Fengqing. The villagers gave him two choices: either sever the relationship with his parents; Either divorce your daughter-in-law and give up your children.

Neither choice was willing to choose Zhu bian, and the villagers forced his family to do superstitious activities to eliminate disasters. It cost 1.5 million yuan and slaughtered 10 livestock. "Superstition activities lasted from September 29th to June 65438+1 October1,and our family was exhausted." Zhu bian said that he tried many ways to persuade the villagers, but it was useless, so he reflected the situation to the town government and other departments.

The vice minister of the propaganda department called it "old rules and bad habits"

Zhu Bian's experience was posted on Weibo by a netizen "IT Internet Temporary Worker" around 10 yesterday morning. Netizens questioned: "Is there such a strange custom in the local area? Is such feudal superstition desirable? "

At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, this Weibo was forwarded nearly 40 times. Netizen "Little Old Q" said: "Shouldn't it be a good thing to have twins?" @ Guandu City Management also said: "What a strange custom."

Duan Jinhua, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of Xishuangbanna State Committee, commented after seeing this, saying that this is incredible, illegal and should bear legal responsibility. He also said: "This is a stereotype that has been banned since the beginning of liberation. Whoever is still rectifying these things is violating national laws. I hope the victims will tell the local government that the government will definitely make a decision for you. I have informed the relevant departments of Menghai County to investigate and deal with it. "
