In the past, it was not easy for a rural man to marry a daughter-in-law, mainly because of the poverty of the family and the poor living conditions. However, with the development of rural areas, many peasant families gradually became wealthy, with houses, cars, and savings. Surprisingly, however, many rural men are still unable to find a suitable partner. Their economic conditions are not bad, or even relatively good, but they face the dilemma of not being able to marry a daughter-in-law. This strange phenomenon has sparked discussion and thinking. What is the reason for this situation?Some people believe that this may be related to the change in the concept of marriage among rural men, the improvement of women's selection standards, and the imbalance in the marriage market.
Corresponding to the fact that rural men cannot marry their daughters-in-law, once rural men successfully marry their daughters-in-law, their wives are often supported by the family and spoiled as "young grandmothers". This phenomenon is widespread in rural areas. The wife is considered a nobleman at home, living a relatively privileged life, not doing housework, and not taking care of household chores. This situation is different from the image of rural women in the past, when they were mostly thrifty, willing to work and focused on family responsibilities. Today, rural wives are in stark contrast to the past, a strange phenomenon that causes reflection on values and family relationships.
In the past, the life of rural people was full of toil and toil, and there was not much leisure time. Now, the life of rural people has gradually become more leisurely. The mechanization of agricultural production has freed people from heavy manual labor, and the daily farm work is relatively easy. Farmers have more time to do what they love. Therefore, rural people now live a life of leisure and entertainment, with groups of men chatting and playing chess and cards, and women gathering together to chat, sing and dance. Leisure and recreation of rural people has become a common phenomenon.
Rural people have been working outside the country for a long time, resulting in many families' houses being idle for a long time. When some farmers have earned enough money, they will build old houses into beautiful new ones, but they will not live at home, but continue to work outside the home. As a result, the countryside seems to be full of new houses that are unused and empty. This phenomenon reflects the outflow of rural population, and is also one of the manifestations of the hollowing out of rural areas.
The children who work hard in the city stay in the city to work and live, and the economic income is relatively high. The elderly who remain in the countryside, especially those who have children but have a difficult life, can only receive a small pension per month. In contrast, although the elderly in rural areas are lonely, the state provides relatively stable subsidies, can get a higher monthly pension fee, and do not need to participate in farmland labor, and live a leisurely and happy life. This phenomenon has led to the envy of the lonely elderly and their own lives, believing that their lives are easier and happier than their own.
In recent years, with the progress of society and the change of people's values, the divorce rate in rural areas has increased year by year. Once-resilient rural marriages are now fragile and fragile, and even the slightest conflict can lead to divorce between couples. This phenomenon is worrying and has also sparked reflection and discussion on marriage and family relations in rural areas.
All in all, the development of rural areas has brought many positive changes and improvements, but it has also brought about some strange phenomena. These strange phenomena reflect the transformation and changes of rural society, and also remind us to seriously think about the problems in rural development in order to find solutions.
