Rural people go to bed early at night, and there is no night show for the following reasons:
1, where there is no nightlife. There are no KTV, nightclubs, clubs, bath centers, massage centers, KTV, slow-moving bars, bars, restaurants, night markets, park squares and so on. In the countryside, there were only visits and chats, and then I fell asleep watching TV.
Farmers are too hard to live overnight. When I was a child, it was already dark when I came back from work. After dinner, I fell asleep because I was too tired, or fell asleep sitting and chatting. So are my parents. It's not that we sleep too much, but that we are too tired to work during the day. Do you know what to do? It's all hard work, burning charcoal and picking charcoal, cooking pork and vegetables, picking dung, chopping wood, mowing grass, herding cattle and sheep and so on. It's hard at the end of the day, and even if there is an evening performance, there is no time and energy to perform.
3. no money. What makes rural people poor? Every penny is hard-earned money, and every penny is hard-won. In the countryside, even if you do odd jobs for others, it costs dozens of dollars. If you chop wood and sell it, there will be dozens of things. Rural income is very low. In rural areas, if you don't go out to work, you will spend seven or eight thousand yuan a year, which is a high-income group. So, after all, it's only five or six hundred dollars a month. Every penny is hard.
4. Lifestyle issues. In rural areas, most farmers would rather visit their homes than sing and dance with fake girls. They are simple and can't play. They would rather chat with their parents and fellow villagers than take part in those boring nightlife.
5, reluctant to spend money. Don't say that you don't want to go to the night show if you don't have money, just like migrant workers are colorful and full of night shows after entering the city. Why don't they go to bars, KTV, clubs, nightclubs and bath centers? It is because every penny they earn is hard-won and they are unwilling to spend it.
We can see a very interesting phenomenon in rural Sichuan.
In fact, farmers still have nightlife, but it may be different from what everyone thinks.
Some farmers can drink and brag until late at night.
Some can fight landlords and play mahjong all night.
Due to environmental restrictions, most rural areas do not have bourgeois luxury life, such as KTV and bars.
But even drinking, chatting and playing cards is an activity that a few people often do, and most people only do it occasionally.
People who often engage in nightlife will be talked about behind the scenes by the villagers.
The seven aunts and eight aunts in the countryside have a strong mouth ~
It's one thing not to have rich entertainment,
But more because the pressure of life is too great to do it.
You know, farmers depend on the land for food, which is very hard work and often kills people.
Children have to go to school, and the cost of education is huge.
Although land is a renewable resource, the output is really too small.
We can only do our best to intensively cultivate and increase production, where can we have the energy to do other things?
What's more, you have the heart to play, but you often can't find anyone.
Everyone has something to do. Can't a person entertain himself at night?
You know, in some mountainous areas, farmers actually have another identity, "hunters."
As far as I know, hunting is usually at night.
For example, after knowing where the pheasant crows during the day, he will look for it in the tree with a flashlight at night.
Other wild animals, such as badgers, often wait until evening to find food.
At this time, the hunter took the weapon and the hound went to "catch the mountain".
And the night when the golden cicada climbed out of the mountain in summer to look for it.
This may also be a different nightlife for some farmers. After all, there is meat to eat and money to earn.
When there is no electric light, farmers always abide by the law of sunrise and sunset. When they finished eating in the dark, they went to bed early. Although electric lights illuminate the countryside now, the farmers went to bed early. Do they have no nightlife?
If farmers have nightlife, it is not before. It's just that after the TV is turned on in the back, nightlife is watching TV. Up to now, some rural night businesses are playing cards. It can be said that the rural canteen is the place to play cards.
Of course, playing cards is only a hobby of some farmers. Many farmers are still rational. They know that playing cards is gambling and they always lose money every day. Might as well go home and watch TV. Farmers who don't play cards basically go to bed early because they don't know what to do anymore.
To explain why farmers go to bed early, the main reason is that farmers like going to bed early and getting up early. Most of the time, they get up at dawn, usually at five or six o'clock. If they still go to bed at 0/2 like city people, it is naturally impossible. If they don't get enough sleep, they have no strength to work.
Therefore, farmers have to go to bed at nine o'clock and get up early, so that they can get up early and work, which is a bit different from people in the city. Especially for some rural elderly people, they go to bed early, maybe at 8 o'clock. This situation is normal. I believe that when they go back to their hometown for the New Year, they will go to bed early unconsciously.
Of course, the reason why farmers go to bed early is because they are too tired to work. In the countryside, it is said that people eat more and sleep soundly after work. After eating, they will sleep in bed soon. Rural areas engage in manual labor during the day, which consumes a lot of physical strength and naturally goes to bed early. It's not that they want to go to bed so early, but that their bodies tell them to go to bed.
In short, although there is nightlife in the countryside, going to bed early is the habit of many farmers. I don't know what you think of this situation. Let's talk about it.
There is still a big gap between the "nightlife" of urban people and rural people. In the evening, the nightlife of the city is very rich, full of colorful busy scenes, and even the old people in Liancheng like to go out for activities, dance in square dance and take a walk at night. Rural people basically have no "nightlife" at night. After dinner, simply tidy up, have a rest and go to bed early. Why do rural people generally go to bed early?
First of all, there is no entertainment in the countryside at night. In the city, there is basically no difference between night and day, and even night is more lively than day, with all kinds of eating, drinking and having fun. In the countryside, it's quiet at night and it's dark everywhere. It's not entertaining at all. In the past, some people would stop by their neighbors' houses or watch TV. But now many rural people go out to work, and with every family having a TV, even fewer people go out for a stroll at night. Since there is nothing to do, sitting is also dozing off. It is better to go to bed early.
Secondly, I am used to going to bed early and getting up early. Nowadays, many young people like to sleep late. Many people who go out to work sometimes have to sleep until noon when they come back, because they are used to staying up late and getting up late, and they are not suitable when they return to the countryside. But now most people in rural areas are old people. And they have developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early since childhood. Even now they have nothing to do every day, they still get up after dawn and go to bed early at night. They also think it's a good habit. If someone doesn't sleep in the middle of the night and doesn't get up at noon the next day, they will be gossiped.
Thirdly, work hard during the day and go to bed early to replenish your strength. Farmer friends are engaged in some heavy manual work, which consumes a lot of energy and is particularly hard. Some people fall asleep as soon as they touch the bed. I am used to going to bed early, because I often have to do these manual jobs. Even if it doesn't work sometimes. But if you form this habit, you will be sleepy then. Anyway, it's boring to sit, so it's better to sleep in bed, which can kill boring time and save some electricity.
City people like to stay up late, while rural people like to go to bed early. In fact, this is also caused by different lifestyles and environments. Since ancient times, working people have had the rule of "work at sunrise and rest at sunset". When they are tired from a day's work and go home for dinner, they need to rest early to save energy for the next day's work. At the same time, due to the lack of entertainment projects and material and cultural life in rural areas, people have no entertainment projects when they return home at night, which is also the main reason why rural people go to bed early. In rural areas, besides watching TV after dinner, most people are now playing mobile phones and have no other entertainment activities. In the long run, it will form the habit of going to bed early, which is why rural people generally go to bed earlier at night. Of course, this is not absolute. There are also a few "night owls" in the countryside who often sleep late. For example, some people like playing cards and mahjong, and some young people often play games all night. Do you prefer going to bed early or staying up late?
In my opinion, many farmers in rural areas go to bed early at night for five main reasons:
First of all, I am too tired to do farm work in the fields all day. I washed my face and feet after dinner and fell asleep after a bath at night. When I returned to my hometown, I saw that most villagers were like this. Because it is a mountainous area, it often takes more than half an hour or even an hour to get to your own land. So, I went out to work early in the morning and brought a meal. Heat the rice with firewood at work at noon. After eating, I had a rest and began to work again. If you don't go to bed early, you won't get enough sleep that night and you won't have the energy to work the next day.
Second, there are fewer and fewer young people in rural areas, mostly elderly farmers, who are unwilling to go out to chat. And now there is less and less walking between neighbors. In this way, everyone went to bed at home early.
Third, there are few cultural activities in rural areas. Except for some people who dance square dance until seven or eight o'clock, most people go to bed early at home.
Fourth, in order to save electricity and money, many people will turn off the lights and TV and go to bed early. Because, farmers believe that electricity consumption is a great economic burden, and if you can save a little, you can save a little.
Fifth, the countryside has always had the habit and tradition of going to bed early and getting up early. I often encounter this situation: sometimes I call my relatives and friends in my hometown and countryside around 8 pm, and when I ask them, they all say, "I'm already asleep!" " "It is conceivable that this habit of farmers is difficult to change and it is impossible to change.
Why do many people in rural areas go to bed early? Do they have no nightlife? In fact, young people in rural areas want to have "nightlife", but the environment does not allow it.
In rural areas, going to bed early has several reasons:
First, environmental restrictions, there is no "nightlife conditions."
I believe that people who have been to the countryside also know the rural environment. The countryside is either mountains or water, mostly middle-aged and elderly people. Just like this year, I went back to my hometown in the countryside for the New Year. My hometown is not far from the town, only ten minutes' drive. But back to my hometown in the countryside, I still feel like a paradise. Only birds sing, it's quiet around and the air is cool. There are no entertainment programs in our village, so young people who come back from the Spring Festival are always bored and will go to the city to play whenever they have time. Back to the countryside, although boring, the whole person will feel very comfortable. Moreover, the habit that people around you turn off the lights early to sleep will also affect themselves.
Second, working too much during the day is very tiring.
In my hometown in the countryside, I saw that one thing many people did was to collect firewood and go home. Some people farm, but they also grow vegetables without farming. Many people are busy.
Third, there is no extra money for entertainment.
The income of farmers who go out to work is more than 3000 yuan, and the income of farmers who have no job is low and unstable. Apart from eating very little money, they dare not take money for entertainment.
Fourth, there are many children.
Whether in rural or urban areas, the more children there are, the more expenses there will be, and then they have to work at night to put their children to sleep. In order to get children into the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, go to bed early and get up early with children.
Young people like us still have many entertainment programs. Ha ha.
I guess the questioner of this question has never lived in the countryside. If you think it is necessary, you can try to live in the countryside for a year, and then all doubts will be solved.
Unlike most city people, farmers live a regular life and go to bed early after supper at night, especially in the past when communication was backward. Don't farmers need to spend the night? But can you sleep at night? Kaki's views on this issue are different from others for several reasons.
Ten or twenty years ago, watching TV was one of the main forms of entertainment in rural areas. I remember that in 2000, Kakuya's TV set was still black and white, and the signal still depended on the outdoor antenna set up with bamboo poles in the yard. It can only be received by sctv and local TV stations, and the outdoor antenna needs to be moved frequently. One person watches TV, and the other is active in the yard.
At that time, there were very few TV stations, and all they watched for a long time were local TV stations. In order to save electricity, even in the off-season, don't turn on the TV until dinner. First, I watch the news broadcast, and then the TV series. Generally, there are only two episodes per night, unless there is a single episode, there will be one more episode.
After watching the TV series, it's almost nine o'clock in the evening. There is nothing else to do, so I have to go to bed early.
In rural areas, the crow of roosters at dawn can wake up the sleeping rural people. We usually talk about "going to bed early and getting up early", and we must ensure adequate sleep in order to be in good spirits. Getting up early in the morning, rural people are not used to sleeping in cages and beauty sleep, so it is very necessary to go to bed early at night.
Usually people often say three meals a day, but in fact, in many rural areas, people only eat two meals a day, which is not to save food without eating. This has been a custom for many years. Some farmers in my hometown only eat two meals a day after winter, and the last meal is usually around 5 pm.
Because the second meal is eaten early and the night is long, if there is too much nightlife at night, the more physical strength is consumed, and it is easy to wake up hungry in the dead of night after falling asleep. The taste of waking up hungry is not generally uncomfortable. It is no exaggeration to say that Kakuqi once tasted the taste of waking up hungry in the dead of night. What's even more frightening is getting up in the middle of the night to look for food and finding it.
Nowadays, the rural transportation is convenient, the Internet is connected, and the nightlife of rural people has begun to be colorful, and even the dam dance has become popular.
The life of farmers is very simple, that is, eating, resting and farming in the fields. On rainy days, sometimes they have to catch water to fertilize the fields. In the evening, whether in the old society or in modern times, farmers have "nightlife", but the forms and practices are different. Of course, they won't sit together and eat delicacies and drink some wine like the nightlife of city people. Farmers' "nightlife" is mostly sitting together, chatting, bragging and relaxing, playing chess, and women mostly sit and do some needlework. Most of these "nightlife" are carried out in summer while enjoying the cool; In winter, farmers with good neighbors come to visit us to gossip. Most farmers lie on the hot kang and watch TV or listen to the radio and have an early rest. The subject asked, why do farmers go to bed early? Rural Guanzhong, as a folk observer of "agriculture, countryside and farmers", combined with the actual production and life of our local farmers, thinks that the details are as follows:
Farmers spend most of the year farming in the fields. All farm work in the field is manual labor, and some of it is very laborious. They farm all day, from dawn to dark, with no fixed schedule. They often work all day until dark. They are thirsty and tired, especially in the busy farming season. Therefore, at this time, farmers have no energy. They came back from the field, cleaned up a little, ate something, and then rested early.
Farmers work at sunrise, rest at sunset, and go to bed early after supper. Although electric lights illuminate the countryside now, television is also very popular, and the Internet enters the village, farmers still go to bed early. The fundamental reason is that there is no better "nightlife" project, which is nothing more than bragging, playing chess, watching TV and listening to the radio; In addition, farmers who play cards for recreation go to bed early because they don't know what to do and have no other entertainment.
Farmers' families are generally poor. If they want to live a better life, they must strive to get rich, seize the time, work more and develop more sideline businesses. Farmers go to bed early, forming the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. They get up at five or six before dawn, get enough sleep and have the strength to do farm work. After the farm work is finished, we can develop some other sideline businesses, such as small business, raising pigs, sheep and cattle. And make full use of time to engage in these sideline activities to increase family income.
Farmers' occupation is sowing in spring and harvesting in summer. Because crop planting is affected by various factors, farmers' friends spend most of their time working in the fields, braving the wind and rain, and coming to the summer in the cold. They are too tired to work in such working conditions. Some people are exhausted when they come back from the fields and have an early rest. Some people with better physical strength will go to bed soon after eating. The physical work they do consumes a lot of energy, so they naturally go to bed early, not because they want to go to bed so early, but because they are too sleepy and tired.
Although the nightlife of farmers' friends is not better than that of city people, it has made great progress compared with the past. The main reason is that modern farmers' scientific and technological farming and mechanized farming have reduced the physical labor of farmers in the past, which not only improved the efficiency of agricultural planting, but also greatly reduced the physical strength of farmers. As a result, the "nightlife" of modern farmers is also increasingly rich. Modern women dance square dances in country squares, have fun with social partners, exchange experience in agricultural production, and participate in new styles.
My friends, what do you think of this problem? I'll wait in the comments section.
It has been more than half a year since the peasants returned to the countryside. I was not used to it when I first came back, that is, I usually sleep after twelve o'clock in the city and after eight o'clock in the countryside. At that time, many friends asked me, can I go to bed so early? I was not used to it at first, but gradually I got used to it. With the passage of time, I also made the impossible possible. Later, I talked to people in the village about this topic. The old man concluded that people in the village usually go to bed early.
