After leaving the countryside, will you still stay close to your siblings back home?

This is a very practical issue; many people leave the countryside by pursuing education, joining the military, engaging in business, and other means. In most areas, the countryside remains essentially a symbol of poverty, backwardness, and ignorance. Some even feel ashamed of their rural origins and deliberately hide it when interacting with others. One’s birth is beyond one’s control; a child does not disdain their mother’s ugliness, and a dog does not mind its family’s poverty. I attended a party organized by a friend a couple of days ago; there were quite a variety of people there. While sitting and chatting, I witnessed a disgusting scene; I don’t want to repeat the vulgar language used. In short, he has six siblings, and he is in his early fifties. After graduating from university, he worked hard and eventually became the manager of a branch at a major bank (which is something worth acknowledging). He then said that his brothers asked him for money and asked him to do favors for them, which annoyed him a lot; the money was his own, and he had no obligation to help them (did he say something like \"damn it\"? It’s still his own mother after all). At most he would give them three or two hundred bucks to tide them over, with no expectation of repayment (showing himself to be very generous), and he wouldn’t have any more contact with them either; if they kept bothering him, he would announce in the newspapers that he wanted to break off all relations with them. He also said that since his parents were dead (note: it was said directly as “dead”, not “passed away”), he had no connection to them anymore. There are also quite a number of people who leave farming behind; such individuals do exist, but they are likely not the majority. Everyone values family ties and friendships, and those who have the ability should try to help those in need around them. Even if one is unwilling to help, it shouldn’t be done in that way.

We’re still very close; I send them some local specialties every year, and whenever I go back, I invite them all for meals and spend a few days together!

In reality, it’s all about money; money brings both joy and worry

I have no money to ask my family for, and even if I did have money, I don’t know what to do with it

It’s all about money – it can make people better, but it can also make them worse

Every year when I go back, we still eat and chat together; the people in the village are even more simple-hearted

It’s actually just about what kind of relatives these are: when you were poor or there were problems in the family, you never saw them; but once they hear that you’re doing well, they come to you to borrow money or arrange a job for you. It’s not easy for many to make it out of the countryside; there’s no such thing as working in the fields without hard work. The best way is to care for each other........

Yes, I’m afraid of encountering something similar.

I mean to help those in need within one’s means, not to spend money recklessly, as no one can afford that.
