As the saying goes, "food is the sky for the people and land for the people." In the old society, buying real estate was a family event that benefited future generations; Today, building a house is still a very important thing among the people. Because building a house is a large investment in the family's fixed assets, and because of the traditional psychology of China people to exorcise evil spirits and receive happiness, some architectural customs have gradually formed among the people for thousands of years, many of which are related to Jiang Taigong.

1. When putting on the beam, put red paper on the beam head: "Jiang Taigong is here, the gods abdicate" or "Jiang Taigong is here, and everything is free".

When people build new houses and beams, they always put a red paper on the beams, which says "Jiang Taigong is coming!" This means that Jiang Taigong, the biggest god in the world, is here, and monsters should not come here! Later, it gradually became a common allegorical saying: Jiang Taigong is here-God abdicates. This custom comes from the legend of Jiang Taigong. Legend has it that Jiang Taigong was selfless when he sealed the gods. In the end, all the gods were sealed, leaving him nowhere to go. No choice, he had to climb to the beam of the new house built by others.

Other places or people posted red paper "Jiang Taigong is here, everything is forgiven". This is another legend from Jiang Taigong. Legend has it that Jiang Taigong came to the same place three times and found that a family was always building a house. He was puzzled and asked his family, "Why does your family build a house every year?" The host said, "Don't mention it! My house was burned as soon as it was built, and it has been burned several times. " Jiang Taigong said, "Your family is on the beam this time. Let me have a look." And be careful to make more overnight cakes on the upper beam. On a bright day, Jiang Taigong asked bricklayers and carpenters to move the cake balls to the roof and throw them down. When villagers from all directions saw the cake balls, they all came for it, and it was very lively for a time. Afterwards, the host asked Jiang Taigong why. Jiang Taigong said, "During the Liang Dynasty, many people came to rob the cake dough. These people have various constellations. When the zodiac is full, Vulcan Bodhisattva will not dare to burn it. " Sure enough, the house has not been burned since it was built. Later, when people were building houses, they would throw cakes or cookies and paste red paper with the words "Jiang Taigong is here, and everything is forgiven". This means that with Jiang Taigong, people have everything going well.

2. When Anmen posted "Anmen invited to lose, Li Du was hired to Jiang Taigong", the Red Cross was criticized as "Anmen Victory".

This custom is widely used in building houses in Juancheng, Shandong Province. Mainly focused on exorcising evil spirits with Jiang Taigong. The origin of custom is basically similar to the legend above. The couplet is accompanied by a horizontal batch, one of which is written in red paper and pasted on the door frame when building the house. In this kind of couplets, there are "An Men adds a blessing, Li Du receives a thousand good words" and Shandong "Jiang Taigong is here, the immortal abdicates".
