The Spring Festival is approaching, 5 kinds of strange phenomena common in rural areas, involving villages and villages, do you have them in your village?
Rural roads are starting to get congested.
The first strange phenomenon is the congestion of rural roads. In the past, there were not many vehicles in rural areas, and the roads were wide and smooth, but with the development of the economy and the popularization of transportation, there are more and more rural vehicles, especially during the Chinese New Year, road congestion is not uncommon. Rural roads are mostly narrow single lanes, and traffic congestion is easy when there are too many vehicles. To make matters worse, congestion can sometimes last for hours due to a lack of traffic control. This is common in rural areas.
Amplification: With the development of the rural economy, more and more farmers have begun to buy cars and use them as a means of transportation. In particular, young people who go out to work often give priority to buying a car after earning money. However, the renovation of rural roads has not kept pace with the increase in the number of vehicles, leading to congestion. During the Spring Festival, many rural people who had been working outside the country returned to their hometowns, resulting in an increase in vehicles on the road. At the same time, due to the lack of traffic lights and traffic police to divert traffic, the traffic order is chaotic, resulting in increasingly serious congestion. Sometimes, traffic jams can even leave people stranded on the road for hours. This situation has undoubtedly brought a lot of inconvenience to farmers who have returned to their hometowns for the Chinese New Year, and has also exposed the fragility of rural transportation construction.
Start a blind date. The Spring Festival is approaching, and families have also begun to encourage single young people to go on blind dates. This is the second strange phenomenon that is common in rural areas. For young farmers who haven't found their significant other yet, the end of the year is the ideal time for an appointment. Parents and relatives arranged various blind dates for them, hoping to solve their marital problems. A friend of mine is 35 years old and his family has arranged blind dates for him every year since he was 25 years old. At first, the blind dates were all girls from the village, but as time went by, women of the right age in the village also began to give him blind dates. Now, he gradually began to expand his scope and go on blind dates with girls from other towns. Unfortunately, he is introverted, and many blind dates end up in contact without a problem. This phenomenon is very common in rural areas: as long as it is a single man and woman of the right age, their families encourage them to go on blind dates, which is a strange phenomenon that many people have. Just before I got married, I also dated more than ten times.
Amplification: With the improvement of the quality of life in rural areas, people are paying more and more attention to the issue of marriage and love. Especially at the end of the year, the problem of unmarried young people in rural areas has attracted the attention of their families. Those who haven't found a suitable partner yet are often invited to various blind date events. At first, most of the blind dates were girls from the village, but as time went by, the school-age women in the village also gained a certain popularity. As a result, people began to look at all kinds of girls from other towns. But in fact, most of these blind dates are just a formality, and they often fail to succeed for various reasons. Introverted young people are the most embarrassed, and they often struggle to actively communicate, let alone develop communication. This situation shows that blind dates cannot fundamentally solve the problem of singleness. This is very common in rural areas, where men and women under the age of marriage are encouraged by their families to go on blind dates. This strange phenomenon puts a lot of pressure on young people.
Broken marriages are on the rise in rural areas.
As the twelfth lunar month approaches, the pace of the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer. However, unlike in the past, fewer and fewer people are visiting relatives and friends. This is the third strange phenomenon that is prevalent in rural areas. Especially after the gradual death of the older generation, the phenomenon of severance between the post-90s and post-00s is even more serious. Even if you visit relatives and friends, it's just a formality, not like before. I remember when I was a child, I went to visit my grandparents every Chinese New Year, and I had to stay at my grandparents' house for at least two days. We went not only to visit the grandparents, but also their brothers and sisters. Coupled with the seven aunts and eight aunts, the activities of visiting relatives did not end until the Lantern Festival. But nowadays, the connection between family members is getting weaker and weaker, and the time spent visiting relatives is greatly reduced. Most people are at the beginning of the year.
1. Stay at home in the first and second years of junior high school.
The third and fourth years of junior high school may have to start work.
Extension: With the development of modern society, the social structure of the countryside has changed dramatically, and the connection between family members has decreased. Especially during the traditional Chinese New Year, visiting relatives and friends is no longer as enthusiastic as it used to be. The elderly in the family are gradually passing away, and the intergenerational connection between the elders and the younger generations is becoming less and less. When I was a child, I would go to my grandparents' house with my parents for the Spring Festival every year, and I stayed for more than two days. In addition, my grandparents' siblings, seven aunts and eight aunts would also come to visit me. The whole Chinese New Year's Eve was immersed in a strong family atmosphere until the end of the Lantern Festival. Nowadays, however, visiting relatives and friends has become a formalized ritual, and there are fewer and fewer real exchanges and interactions. Beginning.
First, most people choose to stay at home in the first and second years of junior high school.
The third and fourth years are already busy with work. This can't help but make people sigh that time has passed, and it also makes people miss the warmth of family affection in the past.
There are many more poker and gambling games.
At the end of the year, many young people who had gone out to work returned home with the money they had saved. This is the fourth strange phenomenon in the countryside. In search of excitement and entertainment, young people get together to play cards and games. After a game of cards, some people even lose all the money they have worked hard to save for a year. This phenomenon is very common in rural areas. Young people, especially men, who return home at the end of the year, are easily attracted to cards and gambling. In their eyes, playing cards and gambling is a form of entertainment, and at the same time, they want to make some extra money. However, due to excessive desire or lack of skill, many people end up losing their hard-earned money.
Extension: After a year of working in their hometown, young people in the countryside are always looking forward to the end of the year, because only when they have money can they find excitement and fun. They often get together to play cards and gamble. Whether playing mahjong or fighting landlords, young people want to earn extra money through gambling. But in reality, playing cards and gambling brings them more financial losses. Having lost a year's hard-earned money, many young people have to go back to work and save money again. This strange phenomenon is very common in rural areas, especially among young people who return to their hometowns at the end of the year. They see playing cards and gambling as a form of entertainment as well as an opportunity to make money. However, due to a lack of experience and skill, many of them end up losing their hard-earned money.
Upgrades are becoming more and more apparent.
In today's society, comparison has become a psychological need, especially in rural areas. This is the fifth strange phenomenon that is prevalent in rural areas. Comparison has become an important activity for people to celebrate the New Year. Compared with cars, houses, watches, and mobile phones, almost everything that can show identity and status can be compared. Young people who return home at the end of the year show off the results of their year's work, hoping to show off in front of friends and family. This phenomenon of comparison also increases the burden on people. Some young people even borrow money to buy high-end goods in order to compare, which leads to financial difficulties.
Extension: In modern society, comparison has become part of people's psychological needs. Especially in rural areas, the phenomenon of comparison is more obvious. During the Chinese New Year, people show their identity and status in various ways, such as buying a car, buying a house, buying a watch, buying a mobile phone and other items that can show their economic strength. Young people returning home at the end of the year are particularly active, wanting to be able to show off to friends and family the results of their year abroad. However, this phenomenon of comparison also carries some weight to people. In order to compete with others, some young people borrow money to buy high-end goods, which leads to financial difficulties. This phenomenon is very common in rural areas, and both young and old people are affected by comparison. This has also led to reflection on whether comparison is a healthy psychological need or a reflection of social pressure
