At present, China's rural economy is developing better and better, not only villages and villages are connected to roads, but also every household has built small buildings, and some families have also bought cars as a means of transportation. However, with the rapid development of the rural economy and the continuous improvement of the income level of local residents, everyone has found that the cost of marrying a wife is also getting higher and higher, in addition to sending a large amount of dowry money, but also to buy a house in the nearby city. Nowadays, it takes at least a million to buy a house in the city, which makes many rural families feel that the burden is too heavy, and the problem of "difficulty in marrying a wife" is emerging in the vast rural areas.
In fact, the fundamental problems that lead to the "difficulty of marrying wives" among rural residents mainly have three aspects: First, the imbalance in the proportion of men and women in rural areas, the phenomenon of preference for sons over daughters in rural families in the 80s and 90s of the last century is more serious, everyone wants to give birth to boys to pass on the generations, so when they are pregnant with girls, they are beaten, and when they are pregnant, they are born, which directly leads to decades later, there are more men of the right age in the countryside, and there are fewer women of the right age, so that the "difficulty of marrying a wife" will gradually appear. The cost of marriage in various places is also rising.
In addition, many rural women have gone to the cities to work, married the men in the cities, organized their own small families, and will never return to the countryside. This has also led to the problem of "difficulty in marrying wives" among rural residents.
Finally, the gap between the rich and the poor in the countryside is also relatively large, and some rural families with good economic conditions do not have the problem of "difficulty in marrying a wife", and they can also get dowry money and can afford to buy a house, and a large number of poor young men will encounter the problem of "difficulty in marrying a wife" because they have no money to get married.
However, in addition to the "difficulty of marrying a wife" in the vast rural areas, there are two strange phenomena in the countryside, young people do not care, but the local old people can not understand: one is that there are more and more "unmarried people" in rural areas. Those young people who choose not to marry are not very poor in the family economic conditions, nor are they not highly incomeed and cannot afford to get married, on the contrary, they all have higher incomes and better jobs, but they are unwilling to get married, which makes the older generation very worried.
Now many young people with good family conditions in rural areas choose to live a single life without marriage, mainly because they see that the people around them have paid a high price, and they have difficulty getting married, but after a few years, they have chosen divorce for various reasons. This makes young people lack confidence in marriage, and rather than marrying and possibly divorcing, it is better to live a free and single life.
Another is that there are more cases of "second-married women" married in rural areas. Women who had previously been divorced once were now favored by rural lads. Mainly "second-married women" will cherish the small family they have established after a failed marriage. Moreover, the bride price required by the "second-married woman" is not very much, and it is not necessary to buy a house in the city, which greatly reduces the cost of marrying a wife of a rural boy. Therefore, now the "second-married woman" is also quite popular with rural boys.
Nowadays, the problem of difficulty in marrying wives in the vast rural areas is relatively common, mainly because the cost of marriage for rural residents is getting higher and higher, coupled with the fact that the proportion of men and women of the appropriate age is seriously imbalanced, and a large number of rural women of the right age have entered the city. However, compared with the difficulty of marrying a wife, there are now two strange phenomena in the countryside:
One is that some young people with good family economic conditions choose to "not marry", and they lack enough confidence in marriage. Another is that young people with poor economic conditions in rural families choose to marry "second-married women", because marrying "second-married women" can live a life, and the cost of marriage is not high. It's just that the local old people can't understand it.
