Chapter 887 What Do You Do at Home
"Are you from the countryside?" asked Shu Yun.
"That's right, in the countryside, in Hubei City, a very small prefecture-level city, the smallest prefecture-level city in the country, two or three acres of land at home, so these fields are hungry and cannot starve to death, but it is also very difficult to get rich, it is almost impossible to count on the land, and it can even be said absolutely, it is impossible to count on two or three acres of land to make a fortune. Su Xing nodded, "But in fact, summer is a little better, after all, it's just hot, you can use a fan or go to the roof to sleep, if it's winter, the conditions are even worse, when you sleep, you feel the wind swishing up from under the bed board, it's cold and can't help it, your hands and feet are shrunk together, and your head is covered in the quilt It doesn't work, especially when you have to go to school in the morning, you get up at six or seven o'clock, and finally cover the hot quilt, and you have to leave again, I really don't want to get up at all, every morning when you get dressed, it's like being tortured." β
"The conditions in the countryside are really difficult, you are from the south, right? The south is uncomfortable enough without heating, but the north is fine, there is heating in the house in the north, and sometimes it is hotter in the house in winter than in summer, blowing the heating while eating popsicles. Shu Yun said.
"yes, so sometimes I always feel unfair, why is there heating in the north and no heating in the south? On both sides of the Yangtze River, I really can't stay up in winter, and the temperature inside the house is even lower than the temperature outside. Su Xing nodded, "When I was in junior high school, I lived in school, more than 20 people in a dormitory, mice ran to the quilt in the middle of the night, and when the weather was hot in summer, I put a bucket of water next to the bed, and when I woke up, I washed my face, wiped my arms, and then slept after cooling down, and in winter, I put the bed together, and two people squeezed each other to keep warm." β
"You are also too miserable, compared to you, my childhood is much happier, my family is in the city, although not very rich, just an ordinary family, but there is heating in winter, air conditioning in summer, and the school is also near home, from elementary school to high school, I live at home, I have not lived outside, and I only live outside when I go to college, I live in school in my freshman and sophomore years, and I moved out in my junior year, not in the dormitory. Shu Yun is much happier than her waking childhood, "But the countryside should be quite fun, you can climb trees, there are many wild fruits, you will not be controlled by your parents, and your spare time after school is your own." β
"That's true. Su Xing nodded, "There are still a lot of things to play in the countryside, and I ran to fish, fish for lobsters, catch yellow eels, and when the mulberries are ripe in summer, I ran to the trees to pick mulberries to eat, which is one of the few fruits that our rural children can satisfy their cravings, and of course there are lotus pods, lotus pods are planted in the lake, and we secretly run down to pick lotus pods to eat, and sometimes we will get some lotus roots." β
Su Xing and Shu Yun were chatting, there were not many people in the countryside at this time who wanted to stay in the countryside all the time, and most of them wanted to go to the city.
The countryside has just undergone electricity reform, and although there will be no power outages every once in a while as before, there are no roads, no running water, and no internet, and life is very hard.
There are generally only two ways for a rural hukou to become an urban hukou, either to spend money to buy it, or to go to university, and to transfer the hukou to the city.
Going to university means leaving the countryside and being able to live in the city, and the future will not face the loess with their backs to the sky, and it is a very enviable thing to become a city person.
However, this concept will soon change in a few years, the countryside has become the envy of many urban people, one is that the natural conditions are good, although there is pollution, the river has become no longer so clear, but the air quality is better than that in the city, the other can build their own houses in the countryside, build small western-style buildings, maybe there is a big yard, you can plant flowers when you are idle, you can also plant fruit trees, peach trees, orange trees, pear trees in the field, once the fruit is ripe, you don't have to buy it, you can eat the fruit you grow at home, and you can rest assured that you can buy it from outsideγ
However, this is a change that occurs when the economic conditions are good, the living conditions in the countryside are not as good as in the city, and some special situations are also for other reasons, for example, in the wake of the village, it is because after the awakening to make a fortune, the villagers started a business, the road was repaired, and there was no problem with a few cars side by side, clean and flat asphalt roads, water and electricity, including network cables, and many families had bought computers and cars at this time.
Is it better in the city or in the countryside?
This has its own saying, some people like to stay in the city, don't like the interaction of the seven aunts and eight aunts, and don't like to be talked about by the neighbors, they just want to live quietly alone, live the life of a small family, and like the convenient transportation in the city, there are hospitals, there are supermarkets, then stay in the city.
Some people don't like the coldness of the city, they like to go to this house with a bowl when they eat, and then go to that house to take a walk, and when they are free, they like to plant some fruit trees, play with flowers and plants, and feel that the countryside is good and can stay in the countryside.
In fact, this is all possible, after all, everyone is a separate individual, people's values, different views on a thing, are normal, choose rural life or choose urban life, are personal freedom, the important thing is that when you make a choice, you will not be restricted by some policies of the outside world, and you can go to the city or go to the countryside to live as you like.
When the hukou is opened, rural people will be able to live in the cities as long as they have saved enough money, but it will become difficult for urban people to go to the countryside, and even if they have money, it will be difficult for them to buy land in the countryside, and at most they will rent a piece of land.
"You two have a great chat, get to know me, my name is Han Zhijie. A person came over with a wine glass, looked at Shu Yun, and then looked at Su Xing, "You kid is the one who offended my brother, call Su Xing, right?"
"Are you talking about Tian Linli? It can't be regarded as offended, I'm like this, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if there is really a conflict, it is someone else who provokes me first, and I have no choice but to fight back. Su Xing said, "I can't stand there and do nothing, right?"
"There's a kind, it's quite horizontal, what do you do at home?" Han Zhijie took a sip of wine.
