Later generations have a strange discovery, the poorer the place the higher the fertility rate, on the contrary, in Europe and the United States and other developed countries the fertility rate continues to decline, so that the government has to introduce a variety of incentives to attract people to have children, like the United States, the more children will even be awarded the title of "hero mother".

In war-torn and impoverished areas, fertility rates are swelling, making it impossible for the already stretched government to afford it. This is an interesting phenomenon, apart from sociology and various policies, in fact, the bottom layer affects the instincts of all mammals.

The higher the food chain, the lower the fertility rate, and conversely, rats, rabbits, and other animals at the bottom of the food chain have amazing reproductive ability. Because of the low consumption, easy to feed, and the serious loss in the process of growth, they will be encouraged to reproduce as much as possible, in order to ensure the stability and continuation of the population.

In fact, human beings are the same, why did people always have to live one after another in the past? Because the premature mortality rate is too high, in order to ensure that enough children survive, they have to keep giving birth. Of course, this is also related to the lack of contraception, many times it is not the mother who wants to give birth - the family can't open the pot, and she is still alive! But what if you're pregnant? I can only give birth!

Some people will ask, aren't there many contraceptive methods in those film and television dramas, which make the concubine unable to give birth at every turn. It should be noted here that if modern contraceptive methods have their own drawbacks, they are not known to be many times better than ancient methods. Those are all "tiger and wolf medicines" that cut off children and grandchildren, and the effect of contraception has been achieved, and the chance of childbearing will be completely destroyed, and there is almost no possibility of recovery.

It stands to reason that now everyone's conditions are good, and the birth permit has also come down, but there are very few people who happily plan to give birth again, and most of the young couples are caught in contradictions and entanglements. Nowadays, it's not like in the past, just add a bowl of water and rice to raise a child, but today's children are demanding!

When a child is born, he needs milk powder, clothes, a school, and a house. People thought that they would have money now, but when they think about what their children will have to spend in the future, it is not enough. There are so many new fabrics and styles on the market that you can never run out. Other people's children are dressed up beautifully, and our family is no worse than others, so we can't pick up the old, how faceless!

When I go to school, from elementary school, where do we go to school? Over the years, there have been several college students in the village, and everyone is so envious that their eyes are blue and at the same time they are ruthless - as long as the child has the ability, I can provide a college student!

But college students are what ordinary people can afford? If you have a little money at home, let's save some money! If you have another one, I don't know what the policy will be when the time comes, the risk is high, and the return on investment is not high, so it is better to concentrate on cultivating one!

Most families think so, but the old people are more conservative, and only granddaughters in the family don't say they don't like it, and they always feel at ease when they have grandchildren, so they can pass on the lineage. As for the pressure and future that the children said, slurp! At the beginning, your father and I were hungry and pulled you up, and now that the family is watching TV, you still say that you can't support it?

After a series of internal family conflicts, about 2/3 of them finally chose to give birth, and 1/3 gave up this opportunity. The situation is very different from that time, and now family planning has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and there are no more thorns and those "guerrilla warfare", and both the surgical process and medical conditions have been greatly improved, and Yang Xiaobei's original intention to stay back then has gradually disappeared.

At present, the focus of rural women's work is to guide the correct concept of marriage, values, and mediation in response to the various disharmony that has emerged now, and so on. In fact, this living Yang Xiaobei is no longer suitable, she is so young and beautiful and married well, is it not convincing at all? At this time, it should be a middle-aged woman with a lot of experience to go out to have some miraculous results.

Yi Zhishu has also retired a long time ago, but as an old branch secretary, he still comes to the village from time to time, and he can't rest assured that he has done a lifetime of business. Today's branch secretary is a young man, graduated from high school, and is the head of the Yang family. Hearing the new secretary and Xiaobei talk about the successor, the old branch secretary made a joke and said, "What? I'm retiring, Xiaobei, and you're going to retire too! ”

"That's right! I'm quitting politics! Becky said jokingly. She herself has no feelings about being an official, and if she hadn't thought that this identity would be easy to use, she wouldn't have picked this big beam. Now that he has retired, it is naturally impossible to step into the "officialdom" again.

"Comrade Xiaobei has rich experience, serious and responsible work, and is a rare good comrade! Her departure is a huge loss to our Peach Blossom Village! Knowing that Xiaobei couldn't be kept here, Yang Zhishu didn't keep it, and said jokingly.

To say that in Peach Blossom Village, in addition to Yi Zhishu, the best reputation is Yang Xiaobei. But who is Yi Zhishu? The family has been in charge of a village since the commune period, and has accumulated prestige over decades. His eyes widened, and the prickly young men were obedient and obedient. And Yang Xiaobei almost never gets angry with the villagers, and he has always done "dirty work", the most scolding work, but he has been well received by everyone.

Compared with them, their newly appointed village party secretary is really not enough to see. Yang Zhishu also understands this very well, and if there is anything that can't be done, he respectfully invites the old branch secretary to come out, not to mention a top two, but also makes the old branch secretary's vanity very satisfied, and supports his work very much. As for Yang Xiaobei, she is too beautiful, Yang Zhishu is a young man, but she is usually deliberately distant and not very close.

Now that she has proposed to resign, to be honest, Yang Zhishu is relieved. This great god is eye-catching in the village, but the people are too good, and the old branch secretary can hold it down, and their mud legs are under a lot of pressure! Although she has always been low-key and very enthusiastic in dealing with the world, everyone always feels that it is not natural to get along with her.

Of course, you can't say that. Just like Yang Zhishu said, Xiaobei is a good comrade, and he usually has a good relationship with everyone, doesn't that chill people's hearts? The necessary retention is still required. "Why don't you set up a table in the village tomorrow and practice it for Xiaobei? The old branch secretary also wants to appreciate his face! He proposed.

"No problem! People are going to the big city, and it will be difficult to see them in the future! Yi Zhishu said crisply, and walked out with his hands behind his back. The villagers who came to the village clinic to see a doctor also heard about Xiaobei's departure, and they were all reluctant.

"I think when I gave birth to a baby, I said it was jaundice, or Dr. Yang helped send it to the hospital! Now the babies are about to go to school, and so many years have passed in a blink of an eye! A daughter-in-law said, and the aunt next to her also said, "Not really! At that time, he said that he was going to Sheung Wan, which scared me! Hide in bed and cry! It's not that Dr. Yang patted his chest and told me that there was nothing to do, and finally waited all the way back, and it was difficult for her to be a female doll! ”

Seriously speaking, from the old and the sick, to the young people who got married, had children, and had birth control, the women in the village seemed to have an indissoluble bond with Yang Xiaobei. Although Yang Xiaobei thinks that he is doing his job, in the eyes of simple farmers, he is favored by her.
