The small county is surrounded by vegetable fields, cultivated land and grasslands. Therefore, small counties are the urban-rural fringe. From small to large, you can always see carriages, ox carts and donkey carts entering the city and stopping near the second hotel. Horses shake the hair on their necks from time to time, and cows bend their heads to chew forage. The donkey, in particular, was deeply impressed by its sound. Mother works in the second department store, where there is a donkey cart pulling goods. My father's family is from the county seat and lives in the backyard of the old trade union. When I was a child, I walked east along the road of the second store and walked to a department store. The county library is just across the street, and later I often go there to read books. Then walk along the path behind a row of adobe bungalows in the north of the county library, and then go east for a while, and you will arrive at grandma's house. Mother's house belongs to two families, and three uncles live in it. My uncle often drives a carriage to deliver firewood to my family, so my family has a lot of firewood. Cooking is not without firewood.

Living in the urban-rural fringe has many advantages. Besides what I said earlier, eating pure green food and growing corn flour with farmyard manure in the garden are all delicious. Eating melons, drinking mutton soup, freezing meat, and going to the countryside to eat pork stewed with sauerkraut vermicelli have been preserved and will continue.

Another notable feature of the urban-rural fringe is that many marriages are unaware of the differences in temperament and customs between urban people and rural people. Everyone's earliest blind spot is the envy and jealousy of the country people to the city people, and the admiration and tolerance of the city people to the country people. But then I came to understand that people living in different environments have many obstacles and tangled troubles in their lives.

In the final analysis, it is different customs, so-called admiration, which is just not easy for a country child to take the exam. The so-called tolerance is to tolerate some backward living habits of rural children.

Children born in cities live a more comfortable and casual life than the hard-earned peasant babies from poor nests. It is still admirable to see rural children working in institutions through their efforts to get into universities. Children in rural areas grow up in extravagant hopes. When I was a child, I hoped to eat a bad cake, and I also hoped to eat a whole moon cake in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I could leave some delicious meat dishes after the guests left. When I was in middle school, I envied the snacks, twists and biscuits that children in the city ate.

The children in the county are much better. Kema's parents earn money every month, and it's easy to eat candy, popsicles and moon cakes.

However, extravagant hope can definitely inspire people's fighting spirit, while being casual can achieve nothing or even pursue it. Rural children with extravagant hopes were admitted to the university, and were assigned to work in the organs after returning to the county. Casual urban children leave school early after attending their parents' classes and do not take the college entrance examination. It is much easier to take over than the college entrance examination.

So here are students who have received more formal education in the city, and most of the teachers graduated from normal schools. Those who stayed in the environment with a high degree of civilization in the county have all taken over and lost their jobs, and most of them have gone to work alone. And those in rural areas, in the face of the big alkali and spicy that can't attract a trace of association, the children born in Baki actually failed the exam, and after graduation, they entered the organs and became cadres.

But people's minds are definitely different, because the living environment is different and the education level is different. It has nothing to do with whether you get into college or not. That is, if you are admitted to a university or a local teacher, you will be admitted by memorizing a few questions. Your child who grew up in a place where you can't attract a trace of association in the face of a big alkali is definitely not tall.

There are kindness and sharing, affection and fraternity, which are all learned in regular schools or parents who often accept new things. If you work in the same unit as a child struggling in the countryside or you accidentally find a rural child as a partner, you will notice subtle differences through some miscellaneous trivial matters and find it difficult to get along with, if your observation is ok.
