After seven days in my rural hometown, I began to envy the lives of rural women
Preface: Lu Yin is speechless. They can live freely, they don't have to worry about cooking, they can sleep whenever they want, and they have a hearty breakfast. At the same time, they are free from the pressure of work and can arrange their lives at will. However, their lives are not only convenient and comfortable, but also have another kind of life with mixed joy and sorrow.
The pleasure of gastronomy. In the countryside, women's breakfast is not just about eating some bread and drinking some milk. Beef noodles, fat intestine noodles, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and bean curd can all make them feast. In their opinion, breakfast is not just about satisfying the stomach, but more of a pleasure. In addition to breakfast, the combination of lunch and dinner is also very distinctive, and you can mix and match it at will. The mother-in-law cooks, and according to the daughter-in-law's preferences, everyone can taste their favorite taste.
However, behind these delicacies, there is the hard work of rural women. The mother-in-law got up early to cook, carefully selected the ingredients, and did some tedious preparations, just so that her daughter-in-law could have a comfortable dining environment. They must ensure that the taste of the dish will satisfy their daughter-in-law. Although women in the countryside don't have to cook for themselves, they do their part to teach and help their mothers-in-law cook so that everyone can have a meal.
Free time. Rural women do not have to work and can choose their own time. In the morning, they can not be so early, they can sleep more in the bed, or they can take their mobile phones and swipe Tik Tok. All the way to lunchtime. In the afternoon of this day, they are free to choose what they want to do. Some country women like to watch movies, go shopping, or ask friends to go shopping at the mall. They can buy as much as they want and don't have to worry about money.
However, in this comfortable life, there is the powerlessness and helplessness of rural women. However, they are not idle. Not only do they have to take care of the house, but they also have to take care of the housework. The in-laws and aunts will help with the children, but the women in the country will also make sure that the whole house runs smoothly. Even if they don't give their children homework, they will still care about their children's homework, but the methods and functions are different. Although village women have their own time, they also have to contribute to the family.
Financial constraints and self-care.
In the countryside, women never worry about their own expenses, whether it is their husbands, parents, or even siblings, they will help them financially. They can enjoy life to the fullest, splurge to their heart's content, and don't know what frugality is. During this period, rural women do not have to work hard to support their families, and can obtain all-round cultivation.
However, while enjoying life, it also brings great mental pressure to rural women. They may not understand the difficulties and difficulties of making money, nor do they know how to control money. Their consumption philosophies are often very casual, and it is difficult to manage and invest in themselves effectively. Due to their lack of financial independence, rural women are often overwhelmed when faced with unexpected financial difficulties.
Family obligations and life pursuits.
Women in the countryside don't have to worry about taking their children to school or helping them with their homework, and they usually have their in-laws or aunts do the work for them. Their primary concern is whether they are good academically and that they have more time and energy to create their own wonderful lives. However, rural women do not just choose the life they want according to their own wishes, they also associate their ideals with the obligations of their families.
Their requirements are not only for appearance and taste, but also for their responsibilities to their families. They will take care of their home and make their family better off and make it better for them. However, despite all the hardships, rural women still hold on to their career aspirations.
The pursuit of urban women.
In stark contrast, urban women face far greater challenges and pressures. They have to take care of their own work and their families, and at the same time, they also have to take on more social responsibilities. They can contribute at work or play a more important role at home. Although their wages are not as high as those of rural women, they are more concerned about their independence and self-government.
However, urban women are also relentlessly striving for their own happiness and fulfillment. They seek a work-life balance and strive for their dreams. Although they may find it hard and busy, they believe that as long as they work hard, they will definitely make their lives better.
Conclusion. In the life of a rural woman, I found another possibility of life. Their lives, on the surface, seem carefree, but in fact, there are unimaginable hardships. Despite the difficulties faced by urban women, they continue to seek happiness and satisfaction through their own hard work and hard work.
Perhaps individuals have different life trajectories and have their own goals in life. I have also learned that it is pointless to be jealous of other people's lives, and that it is important to fight for your own life in the journey of life. Whether it is a woman from the countryside or from the city, she can achieve her own good life with her hard work and sweat. For example, although I have witnessed the hardships of rural women, I still insist on being responsible for my work and family, and firmly believe that my future struggles and efforts will definitely make my life better.
