第三進天井中有一口水井,古時候人工鑿井成本高,通常一個村莊都共用一口井,像捷發這樣的富裕人家,才有財力擁有一口水井。想像一下,許家婦孺早晚在這裡洗衣聊天的情形,這裡應該是全屋中最熱鬧的地方吧!
剛才從外面走進來,有沒有覺得這屋子好長呢?西螺老街的長屋居住型態,成形於1925到1940年的日治時期,因為採光及空氣流通的關係,每一進之間多設有天井。捷發第三進建於1933年,是西螺老街屋中最豪華的一間。現在您站立的位置也是拍照最美的地點,何妨停下腳步,留影打卡紀念一下呢?
建議您再往上走三個台階並轉頭往外看,您會發現剛才走進來時,是一步走,一步高的進入屋內的。這呼應了中國風水中「步步高升」的意涵。站在這裡您還會看到四周的羅馬圓柱,仔細觀察,柱頂上面裝飾著象徵長壽的龜殼紋,柱腳的瓜筒裝飾則代表多子多孫的福運,抬頭望向二樓的希臘圓柱,有少見的愛奧尼克的渦捲柱頭以及科林斯的葉片裝飾,營造出西洋建築的輝煌之感。
There is a water well in the third entry patio. In ancient times, the cost of manual well drilling was high. Usually a village shared a well.Only wealthy people like Jiefa had the financial resources to own a well. Imagine the situation that, around the well, children were playing while the Xu's women were doing their laundry and chatting with each other. The well should be the most liveliest place for the whole house!
Walking in from the outside, did it occur to you that this house is quite long? The longhouse living pattern of Xiluo Old Street was formed during the Japanese period from 1925 to 1940.Concerned about the relationship between lighting and air circulation, the patio is necessary between each entrance. Jiefa's third entry was built in 1933 and was the most luxurious of the old houses in Xiluo. The place now you are standing is also the most beautiful spot to take pictures, why not stop and give it a photo shoot?
It is recommended that you walk up three more steps and turn your head to look out. You will find that you walked each step higher than the previous one when getting into the house. This accords with the meaning of "rising step by step" in Chinese feng shui. Standing here allow you to see the Roman columns around. Look carefully! The top of the column is decorated with a tortoise shell pattern that symbolizes longevity. The melon tube decoration at the foot of the column represents the good fortune of many sons and grandchildren. Look up at Greece round columns on the second floor, a rare Ionic scroll head and the Corinthian leaf decoration can be seen, which all creates a glorious sense of Western architecture.
