That's what I've been thinking about. Recently, I made a decision that I can't go back to the countryside, and my hometown is no longer home.
First, the rural land policy, the hukou is not there, and the homestead cannot be bought. You can only rent it if you want to go back. It is difficult to complete the design of the rented house according to your own ideas.
Second, there is still a big gap between the living conditions and sanitary conditions in rural areas and those in cities. Even if you go back with enthusiasm, it is difficult to settle down permanently.
Third, when teenagers leave home, their hometown and old friends are no longer the same. Familiar homesickness is very different from those familiar old friends. As Mr. Lu Xun described in Hometown, the boy who stabbed the badger to death with a silver ring steel fork on a moonlit night is long gone. ...
Fourth, if you go back to the countryside, if you can't work and live like a neighbor, you will become a stranger in the eyes of your neighbors. And people like us who are "retired" can't be like them.
Therefore, it is beautiful to settle down in the countryside, but it is unrealistic to do this!
Maybe we can be flexible: it is possible to live in both the countryside and the city.
Or, make up your mind to "return to nature" and return to nature completely ideologically, psychologically and physically, as if everything after you left home was a dream, and you never left. Unfortunately, too few people can do it. ...
It is impossible to go to the countryside with fresh air and quiet environment. Because the realistic policy is that rural people buy houses in cities at will, and urban people are not allowed to buy houses in rural areas. Renting a house in the countryside is not the way. This is not your house. You can't fulfill your pastoral wish, and you may be expelled later. Then you can only choose a place in the city where life is convenient, not far from the hospital and quiet in the noise. You like green, so keep more flowers and plants at home. You like peace, so install thick curtains at home. In my later years, I still rely on my own abstinence, adjust my mentality, and live happily every day.
I'm over half a year old, a native of the country. Now there is no land in the slope (coal mining subsidence, a piece of Wang Yang), no boat in the river, no house in the city and no money in hand. Therefore, there is no choice but to live in a "villa" in a rural community after the relocation and enjoy one's old age.
As for the bustling downtown, I dare not even think about it, and I feel dizzy when I think about it. The reason why I think so is not that I am talking nonsense and eating grapes is too sour, but that I have lived in the city for half a year.
Two years ago, I went to the provincial capital with great interest to take care of my grandchildren, but I was also addicted to it and experienced the life of city people. Perhaps, because I am used to rural life for half my life, I can't adapt to it anyway, and it is difficult to integrate into the rhythm and lifestyle of the city. However, due to the heavy responsibility, I persisted for half a year and resigned from my son, so I couldn't wait to "escape" to my hometown in the countryside.
After that, despite the rhetoric of his son, he was never moved by it. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, my wife failed to resist the temptation of "sugar-coated shells", but defected and went to the city to enjoy family happiness! But it's nice to be alone. After all, community life in rural areas is also rich and colorful. At least, the environment is beautiful, the air is fresh, and it is much more convenient and quiet to wander around.
At the same time, as urban residents, it is not difficult to come to the countryside to enjoy their old age. After all, the economic conditions are far less than those of non-agricultural villagers. You can't let go of the rich life in the city unless you are half-hearted. However, as long as you really want to spend your old age in the countryside, don't hesitate, take your money and initial heart and come to the countryside. Because, the new socialist countryside welcomes you! Welcome to the beautiful countryside! Welcome to your hometown! Aside from the rural life in memory, the rural environment has changed a lot. Every household's house has a deep house compound, which has lost the rural flavor of the 1980 s and is not suitable for providing for the elderly.
If you retire in the city, it is recommended to retire in the city to make your home warmer, and you can also travel to beautiful places regularly. When you are well, you can go to more places and give up your plan to support the elderly in the countryside.
With the growth of age, the convenience of medical treatment should be considered, and many aspects are superior to those in rural areas, such as shopping in cities. After several years of environmental improvement, the environment in many cities is getting better day by day. Due to the thorough transformation of the surrounding environment of the city, the smog weather in the city rarely appears at present, and the green area is gradually expanding.
Why not suggest going to the countryside for the aged? Because the rural environment has changed greatly in the past few decades, the former open-air rural courtyard has disappeared. Now it's a deep house compound, with high walls and great changes in interpersonal relationships, unlike the enthusiasm before the 1980 s.
If you go to the countryside to support the elderly, it's like walking into a dead end and closing yourself off. Staying in this environment for a long time is not good for your health, because there is no communication, and you just eat and sleep every day. So the life of the elderly is still in an active urban area.
Poor health in the city, in the country!
Acquaintance society is better for providing for the aged in rural areas!
My answer is to choose a convenient life! For example, shopping, traveling, fitness, medical treatment and visiting relatives and friends should be convenient. Because the intelligence and mobility of the elderly are not as good as those of the young, and physical diseases are increasing year by year. Therefore, the choice of living environment should proceed from the actual and long-term needs of the elderly. It is convenient to go shopping, go out for a walk, get medicine and go up and down the stairs. In short, we should try our best to consider convenience.
Absorb the essence of culture, "the power of love".
Hello, I'm glad to answer this question. You asked, "Did you ask about the living environment in your later years, or did you choose the quiet countryside? Still choose the city to be lively? " Good question, this question really deserves serious consideration. It is appropriate for me to answer this question. Although I am only in my forties, I am still in middle age. But I often use weekends to go back to my hometown and enjoy the peace of the country. Work in a big city during office hours and feel the excitement of the city. I am familiar with the tranquility of the countryside and the noise of the city.
What I want to tell you is that the living environment in my later years is still dominated by cities. I was tired of living in the city for a long time. I went back to the country for a few days to breathe the fresh air in the country. Why should I answer you like this? Please listen to me tell a personal experience in the city! The experience is as follows-
At 9: 30 am on August 23rd, I drove my kitten to a pet club near my home to take a bath, and made an appointment with my boss to pick it up at noon 12: 30. Then I left the pet store and drove to the nearby Industrial and Commercial Bank to withdraw money. I still got it at the ATM, and I got it soon. Then I drove to the Agricultural Bank, not far from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, to save money for my children's college tuition. After coming out of ABC, I went to the market to buy vegetables and fruits. After coming out of the market, I drove to the drugstore to buy medicine for the children. When I drove all the things I bought home, suddenly a colleague called me and said that she would come to see a doctor, hoping that I would introduce her to a doctor familiar with my husband's company.
Before I could catch my breath, I immediately went downstairs and took my colleagues to the hospital where my husband worked. It was almost noon 1 when I finished. I quickly drove to the pet club to get my kitten back ... In fact, the pet club, ICBC, Agricultural Bank of China, food market, drugstore and hospital I went to were all on a street near my home, and the distance was no more than 2 kilometers. I drive to do these things.
Imagine: if I'm not in a big city or driving, how can I accomplish so many things in three hours?
If I lived in the country—
1, kittens can't go to the pet club to take a bath, so they can only wash themselves or not.
2. Children have to pay tuition fees, and they can't go to ICBC to get it, nor can they go to ABC to deposit it. It can only take one morning to go to the town by car to find a bank to withdraw money and save money.
3. If you want to buy food, you should also go to town by car. It takes at least 3 hours to go back and forth on the road.
You can buy medicine when you go to town to buy food.
My colleague wants to see a doctor, so I have to turn her down sorry and let her find another way.
In short, if you live in the countryside, you can only drive or take a bus to the nearby town to buy some basic necessities, such as vegetables, fruits, toothpaste and soap. Other ideas are basically impossible to realize. For example, if you want to buy some good clothes and cosmetics, you can't buy them; It is impossible to watch movies or performances; Want to buy a bunch of flowers, there is no place to buy; I want to bathe my pet, but I can't help it. If you want to play in the gym, there is no way; You can't find a fine tea restaurant for afternoon tea.
It can be said that the various places in the city that we are used to and even a little tired of, and the services they provide, are hard to find in the countryside. Only by minimizing the requirements for life-eating enough and wearing warm clothes can we live in the countryside for a long time. If you want to have a good quality of material life and a rich spiritual life in your later years, you can only live in the city. You can only stay in the country for a few days once in a while. This is my personal experience. I hope my answer will enlighten you.
Ok, that's all for today. Thank you for reading my text, and welcome you to leave a message in the comment area to discuss the topic of "old age life" and pay attention to "Oh love Mimi".
