First of all, rural life is not equal to rural life. Imagined rural life, whether in Miyazaki Hayao's cartoons or in European and American movies, is beautiful and sparsely populated, far away from the noise of the city, making people just want to be quiet. When it comes to rural life, only childhood memories will come to mind. Life in the countryside is not beautiful. The bed I sleep in is always not clean and tidy. The toilet on the toilet is always in the scary pigsty. Television can only rely on shooting, going out can only rely on walking, and the phone can only rely on shouting. What's more sad is that I'm not adapted to the rural environment. Every time I go back to my hometown, I will inevitably get sores on my body, which is extremely uncomfortable. This rural life is far from the rural life in literary works.

Secondly, longing for rural life is more of a kind of Ye Gong Long Hao. It is not so much longing for rural life as boredom with urban life. The noise, crowding and turbidity of the city are enough to make a person who works hard in a big city exhausted. Therefore, escaping from the city, staying away from the hustle and bustle, and longing for rural life has become a way out to resolve this depressed mood. However, have you ever asked yourself: Do you really like country life?

In recent years, I have lived in rural areas in the Midwest of the United States. Before I came, my mind was like this: the city is too noisy for me, but the quiet country life is more suitable for me, so that I can study and think with peace of mind. However, when a truly peaceful life begins, I feel the loneliest. The countryside in America is not the countryside I described above, but a small city. Living here, there are cars, houses, restaurants, supermarkets, entertainment and wifi, but there are just few people. Or, compared with China, there are really too few people.
