Novelist Henry James said: "A man's house, a man's furniture, a man's clothes, the books he read, the friends he made — all this is a manifestation of himself." ”
From the house, it can reflect life, and it can also reflect a person's psychology. In the city, it seems that all the houses are similar, where the houses are built, and what the layout is, are not their own decisions. However, in the countryside, the pattern of the house is very different, and the "cost" of the house is even more different.
Looking at your hometown, there should be a lot of new houses, right? There are also a lot of new houses, very beautiful, but no one has lived in for a long time, and the locks on the doors are all rusty. Of course, new houses in the countryside are not cheap, and there are hundreds of thousands of one at a time, and there are millions of one. Many families, in order to build a house, have emptied all their savings and even borrowed a lot of money.
People who spend all their savings and build a house in their hometown often have the following mentalities.
01
The mentality of "comparing with each other": I want to reflect the scenery of my return to my hometown by building a new house.
My hometown is in a small ravine, and when you open the door, you can see the mountains, and when you go out to any city, you have to climb over several big mountains. It is such a remote small mountain village, or someone built a small Western-style building.
During the Tomb Sweeping Festival, I went back to my hometown with my mother to visit the grave. At the mouth of the village, see a lot of river sand and red bricks. I asked Uncle Liu in the village, "Who's going to build a new house?" ”
Uncle Liu said: "It is the second dog of wang in the village, and he wants to build a house on the side of the road." ”
Wang Er Dog was once a poor man in our village. He was in his thirties and took his wife and children to Dongguan to work, and the family's economic situation slowly improved.
Uncle Liu said, "This Second Dog Wang, I don't know what luck I have taken." In the factory mixed into the supervisor position, the monthly salary of seven or eight thousand. ”
In fact, Wang Er Dog did not make a lot of money. In any case, he is still a "hit worker", not a big boss. However, he wants to prove his "strength" by building a new house.
In recent years, Wang Er dog's neighbors have built new houses, only his home, still the same old, tattered, very distracting.
In order to prove that they mix well, many villagers have demolished the old house as soon as they bite their teeth, and the new house is built. No matter whether there is anyone living in the house in the future, it is "earned face" anyway.
Think about it, there are really many people who punch swollen faces and become fat.
02
The mentality of "falling leaves back to the roots": When you are old, go back to your hometown to live a slow life.
When you are old, take your lover and go back to the countryside to live together. Flowers are planted at the door, vegetables are planted behind the house, fruit trees are planted on the hillside, and flowers can be enjoyed in spring. Such a good day is really enviable.
In the city, every day is busy, if it were not for the sake of making money, I would not want to stay. If there is no special reason, when you are old, it is certainly a good choice to go back to the country.
Some young people did not buy a house in the city, but built a new house in their hometown. As for whether you can buy a house in the city in the future, let's talk about it later, in case you can't afford it, forget it.
In particular, some of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, most of them were born in the countryside and missed the life in the countryside. Having a house in the countryside is happy to think about.
03
The mentality of "keeping the ancestral inheritance": let future generations find their own "roots".
If you look closely, you will find that some of the new houses in the countryside are "ancestral houses". Therefore, it can be seen that many people are in awe of their ancestors and hope to retain their nostalgia by building "ancestral houses".
As a village, the "ancestral house" is built for everyone to have a place to discuss important matters, but also to keep the nostalgia; as a family, the house is built for the family to have a place to reunite, so that the ancestors have a "foothold".
The old houses in the past, most of which were adobe houses, shaky wall houses, wooden houses, etc., were very unstable, and after a few years of wind and rain, they failed. Today's small Western-style buildings, if they do not encounter special disasters, should not be defeated for hundreds of years.
Building a new house in my hometown may not be for permanent residence, but to tell future generations where their roots are, and they will not be able to mix in the city in the future, and where they will go to live.
04
"Filial piety to parents" mentality: in order to make their parents live better in their hometown.
My cousin Xiao Zhao is Chinese New Year's Eve six years old. Because he couldn't afford a house in town and was very introverted, he never found a girlfriend.
Xiao Zhao's parents have been living in the countryside, seeing that their neighbors have built new houses, and young people have married wives and children, so they "have a clever move" and want to build a house in their hometown.
Xiao Zhao has been working in the city for more than ten years, and he has more than 100,000 savings, and he wanted to buy a house in the city, but when he saw the house price, he was overwhelmed. Since his parents wanted to build a house in their hometown, he thought about it and agreed.
Xiao Zhao gave the deposit to his parents, who also went to relatives and friends to borrow more than 100,000 yuan, and the new house was quickly built. On the day of the new house, relatives and friends came to say hello.
Xiao Zhao's uncle said: "Hey, the houses in the countryside, no matter how good, the girls in the city are not rare." Besides, it will not add value in the future. ”
Uncle's words, although ugly, made perfect sense. However, Xiao Zhao is a filial piety to his parents, and he listens to his parents in everything. Now, the house has been built, as long as his parents are doing well, Xiao Zhao will be at ease, as for his marriage, he did not think too much.
In fact, many young people, in order to make their parents live better in their hometown, do not hesitate to take out all their money and build a house in their hometown. As for whether the house has value later, it is not considered too much.
05
"Hate the city" mentality: don't want to hang out in the city for a lifetime, leave a way out in advance.
Some people are in the city every day, but every day there is a "I want to escape" idea. In the city, the soul is in the hometown.
Others always wonder, if it comes to the war years, will the city still be able to stay? Maybe only the hometown is the safest place.
In fact, the high-rise buildings in the city, although flashing neon lights, can not find a sense of belonging. Only the days in the countryside belong to you.
Think about it, in the countryside, if you don't have a job, you can still farm and be self-sufficient. Leave yourself a way back in advance, and feel safe in your heart.
Spending a lifetime of savings, just to build a house in the hometown, is it worth it, fortunately unhappy, only those who have experienced it know.
