Under such circumstances, many farmers may only earn a few dozen yuan this year, but if something happens at home next year and there is not enough labor, they will have to spend the money they earned, and their lives will be very difficult.
Otherwise, why would so many country girls want to marry into the city? First, there would be one less mouth to feed at home, which would reduce the burden. Second, women earn less, and if the money they have to pay is distributed equally among everyone in the family, the amount a woman earns might not even reach the average, which is considered a loss. Third, life would be much better in the city, at least they wouldn't have to pay grain.
As long as you marry into the city, you can change your household registration to an urban one and have the opportunity to find a job. Even if you can't find one, there is no need to be too anxious.

Li Qinghe nodded affirmatively, "Of course, there is no benefit in lying to you."
Qin Jingru finally put her heart back in her stomach and blushed as she said, "Then...then do you mind finding a partner from the countryside?"
"Of course not. What's wrong with being a farmer? Our country was conquered by farmers. If my partner is from the countryside, I definitely won't mind."
Qin Jingru instantly became shy, picked up the snacks and trotted out, "I...I'll go back first, my sister is still waiting for me."
Li Qinghe looked at her flustered expression and scratched his face, "Did I say something wrong?"
