Why do almost all rural families have to borrow money to buy a house in the county?

Nowadays, whether it is a city girl or a rural girl, the first condition for finding a partner is that she must have a house, otherwise it will be over. Originally, we rural people could have farmhouse music in the village. As long as we have a farmhouse, we can marry our son. But these are old calendars. Now, even if you have a house in the village, you can't get a wife. Girls don't want to live in the countryside because the rural conditions are very poor. After having children in the future, the teaching conditions in rural areas are too backward. You must let your children study in the city. Therefore, as long as parents don't want their son to be single, they should tighten their belts. Even if they borrow all their relatives and friends, they should buy a house for their son in the city. In our local countryside, it should be said that this is a common phenomenon, but anyone who can pay the down payment with a loan should also try to buy a building in the city.

I have a relative who lives in a mountain village more than ten kilometers away from the county seat. In addition to farming, the couple have to go to the construction site to work during the slack season. Over the years, my family has had three old houses. Now that my son has grown up, he managed to save money to renovate the old house. Not only did he have no money at home, but he also borrowed a little from his relatives more or less, and planned to pay it back slowly after the house was built. I didn't expect my son to talk about a girlfriend People don't want to buy a new house in the countryside, but they must ask for a building in the city. The couple discussed that the loan should also buy a building for their son.

However, the weather is unpredictable, and it rains all night. The pillar of their family is sick, and it is the kind of disease that can't be cured by spending money, not to mention that their family has no money to cure it. In order not to leave too much burden on children, they simply don't have surgery and take conservative treatment. A year later, the pillar of the family left. The remaining mother is nearly 60 years old, and now she works on the construction site every morning, thinking that she can help her son buy a building.

I advise this relative that even if you don't eat or drink, you can't afford a house just because you are a 60-year-old woman. The money you earn is not enough for the difference in the property market. But she said that every penny earned is a penny. Even if she pays the down payment for her son, she will feel better. Otherwise, she would be so eager to see other children her age get married.

It is understandable that young people like living in cities and think that cities are more conducive to career development, but it is undoubtedly a heavy burden for many rural families who have no economic ability. Too many rural parents not only scrimp and save to buy houses for their children, but also don't want to go to the hospital when they are sick. A square building in the city may be their labor income for several months or even a year, but almost all parents are willing to do anything for their children.
