Fewer and fewer people are going to the bazaar in the countryside, should this traditional rural bazaar be canceled?

I don't think the bazaar should be canceled. In the summer, I went back to my hometown with my son, which is a beautiful mountain village. I've been away from my hometown since I was a kid, and I haven't been back in years. Not to mention that I don't recognize my peers and juniors, I can't even tell my aunts and uncles apart. I live in my uncle's and aunt's house alternately, and I can't go to either house for two days. Every morning at five o'clock or so, I would hear a certain uncle whispering out the window, "Are you up yet? Not necessarily at whose house to stay at eat, they take turns to treat. On this day, I came to stay at my old aunt's house, and she said that there would be a fair tomorrow, so let's go to the fair. I had never been to a fair before, but when I came to the fair, I saw that everything was for sale, just like the market in the city. When my aunt came to the meat stall to buy meat, she saw my uncle and aunt picking meat. They bought a lot of ribs and meat, and said to me, "Tomorrow your sister and the others will come to visit you, and you will come back for dinner, so ask your old aunt to come with you". I agreed and saw that my old aunt had also bought a lot of meat, so I knew it must be for us. As we walked around, we bought fruits, dried fruits, snacks and so on, no one's hand was empty. This round of shopping down, a few aunts and uncles of the family and the second aunt have met, really is a coincidence. The old aunt said it is not coincidence, because live not far away, every encounter with the day of the market will come, so it is common to run into. When they meet, they chat for a while and then go back to their own homes. The countryside is different from the city, where there are markets every day and you can buy whatever you want. The countryside is relatively decentralized, unlike the city crowd so dense, and only in the days of the big market can go to get together, where you can see a relatively concentrated crowd. Furthermore, the rural areas to buy things can not only in the farmers open small store to buy all, after all, the variety is limited. Picking up daily necessities and uncommon meat and vegetables can only be on the set.
