With the development of rural areas in China, it is now entering a period of rapid development.
With the development of rural environment and infrastructure, the quality of life of farmers has been greatly improved, making their lives more colorful.
With the improvement of the quality of life in rural areas, the gradual improvement of medical care and the continuous development of the pension system, the life of the elderly in rural areas has become more secure.
Although the living conditions and quality of life of the rural elderly have been greatly improved, there is still a big gap compared with the urban elderly.
Old people in cities generally retire at the age of 60 and begin to enjoy life.
On the other hand, if the rural elderly have good economic conditions, they still need to be self-sufficient, while those less fortunate need to go out to work.
I went home some time ago and found my neighbor's grandpa Zhang.
Grandpa in the country is four points short of grandpa in the city.
After listening to the editor's story, there were a few tears.
First of all, even if they get up at the same time, at 5 am, their purpose is very different.
Old people in cities and rural areas get up at 5 am, but old people in cities go to the park for running first, and then go to the food market for exercise.
They can not only get exercise, but also buy fresh vegetables.
On the other hand, the old people in the countryside get up at 5 o'clock in the morning, when the weather is cooler, so they can work in the fields before it gets too hot.
Some of them enter the labor market as early as possible to find good and cheap jobs.
The same person may get up at 5 o'clock in the morning, but their lives are very different.
Second, it is also a rest at 9 o'clock in the evening, but the nature is very different.
Old people in the city rest at 9 o'clock in the evening to keep healthy.
This is not only a good habit, but also a healthy habit.
However, in order to enter the labor market as soon as possible, many elderly people in rural areas get up early in the morning and rest at 9 o'clock.
Some people are tired from work during the day and want to rest early.
Third, the same age is 60 years old, and the lifestyle is world.
Old people in cities and towns basically retire before the age of 60, but they pay pensions when they are young.
Once they reach retirement age, they will get a pension.
For a 60-year-old man, living in the city is very exciting.
I do some sports to go to the park or travel.
Some old people have established old people's communes, and they live comfortably and have no worries about food and clothing.
In contrast, 60-year-olds in rural areas are still struggling for a living.
Although the rural pension system has been greatly improved, the monthly pension is still relatively small, which can not meet the daily needs of the elderly in rural areas.
In order to support themselves and reduce the burden on their children, many 60-year-old people in rural areas are still struggling for a living. Unless they work, their life is insecure.
Even people who are 60 years old have different lifestyles.
Fourth, even on the same trip, urban elderly people have old-age certificates, while rural elderly people are still prohibited from riding tricycles.
In many cities, in order to facilitate the elderly, many city buses are equipped with elderly cards.
This not only ensures convenience, but also ensures the safety of the elderly.
For the elderly in urban areas, it is very convenient to buy daily necessities and send their children to and from school.
Old people in rural areas buy electric tricycles for their own convenience.
However, in recent years, many places have banned the use of electric tricycles on public roads.
This means that the mobility of the elderly in rural areas is becoming a problem.
Even if the same old people live in cities, the lifestyles of rural old people are very different.
Many people may be a little sad to see this difference.
However, I believe that in the near future, the lifestyle differences between rural and urban elderly will become smaller and smaller.
This is because China should not only develop rural economy, but also develop rural areas in an all-round way to improve people's quality of life and safety.
