What are the requirements for raising the beam?When breaking ground, the owner of the house has to choose a piece of Chinese toon wood and have the carpenter make the "beam"; the bricklayer has to build a stone at the base with the words "Shi Gan Dang" engraved on it. The older generation also engraves "Jiang Taigong is here" to ward off evil and disasters.There are more rules on the day of "raising the beam". The so-called "raising the beam" means pulling the main purlin (because it is located in the center of the entire wooden structure of the house, it is usually revered as a "beam") from the ground to the roof for installation. On that morning, "Good luck for windows" and "Good luck for doors" were posted on the window and door frames, and the antithetical couplet "Auspicious day for raising the beam and auspicious time for erecting the pillars" was posted on the two opposite pillars of the main house frame. "Good luck for raising the beam" was posted on both sides of the center below the beam, and a pair of red chopsticks was placed on each side of the center above the beam. A copper coin was embedded in the middle of both ends of each pair of red chopsticks (i.e. chopsticks clamped money), and red threads were passed through the copper coin holes and tied around the beam. There was another red thread with 7 copper coins strung on it, with colorful silk cloth on the lower end hanging below the center of the beam. The two sides were surrounded with red threads and tied securely to the copper coin holes in the middle of the two pairs of red chopsticks above the beam. Because “kuai” (kuai) sounds similar to “kuai” (kuai), it implies “making money quickly”, that is, getting rich. On both sides of the "Shangliang Good Luck" are draped red and green silk cloths given by the mother's family and close relatives, dough lions given by the mother's family stand on both sides of the door, dough peaches weigh down the top of the beam, and wheaten gifts from relatives and friends to congratulate are placed in front of the main door. At noon, the elders of the host family lead the descendants to light candles and burn incense, which is called "Bai Liang". Then, the woodcutters and foreman climbed onto the roof holding a "half bucket" filled with small cakes, candies, wine and red envelopes. They first took a symbolic sip of wine, which is said to "drink the beam-raising wine and live to be ninety-nine". Then they poured the wine on the mortise and tenon holes of the pillars. With a shout: "The beam is being raised—————" firecrackers rang out and the beam was pulled onto the roof amid joyous cheers. Searching in this vast sea of people, is that person the destined one?
