Why are Chinese so keen to build a house in their hometown? Friends, have you found such a strange phenomenon, returning to your hometown in the countryside, you are shocked by the various villas in front of you with different styles! These beautiful "country villas" are actually the self-built houses of the farmers in the village, but in these villas, almost no one lives, generally a floor of cattle and sheep or agricultural machinery and agricultural tools, the second floor and the third floor are fully furnished, some people live, some are empty, only in the Spring Festival every year, the room is full of people, after the Spring Festival, it will be vacant for another year. Even so, many people are happy to go back to their hometown to build a house!
Why is this the case? For the vast majority of migrant workers who go to the city to work, the city is just a post station for them, and the migrant workers are just a hurried passer-by of the city. Their childhood memories, their childhood playmates, their homesickness, their homesickness, their folks, their affection, their parents, their ancestral homes, their ancestral graves, their too much, all in their hometown! That is to say, their souls, their dreams, and their roots have always remained in the land of their hometown! This is a sentiment shared by Chinese! People often say: "The tree is tall, and the fallen leaves return to the roots"! This is a vivid and vivid description of people's attachment to their homeland.
People living in the city, going back three generations, are actually farmers, but after leaving the countryside for a long time, the original hometown has no place for their souls to land, and the hometown has long been different. The Tang Dynasty poet He Zhizhang's "Book of Returning to the Hometown" wrote: The young left home and returned to the elder, and the rural voice did not change and the mane declined; Children who don't know each other laugh and ask where the guests come from! Reveal the bitterness and helplessness of the wanderer! In fact, many people who return to their hometowns to build houses also have houses in the city, but no matter which neighborhood you live in, you feel like a guest hometown! Why? Because the house you bought never falls to the ground, it always floats like duckweed, and the soul has no place to rest!
Buying a house in the city, what exactly did you buy? The ceiling you buy is someone else's floor, the floor you buy is someone else's ceiling, and the back wall you buy is someone else's four walls! What did you buy? In fact, you don't buy anything, all you buy is the ceiling, the floor and the air enclosed by four walls! After a hundred years, migrant workers with land in their hometowns can go into the soil for safety, and you can only turn into ashes and lie in a small box and leave a photo to hang on the wall! I think this should be the reason why migrant workers do not hesitate to return to their village hometown to build houses no matter how hard money they earn by working in the city!
