The son of a mother’s friend sold an apartment and bought a house in the village, his mother puts it as an example

Life in the city seems to be a pleasure for the villagers. village-life It seems particularly attractive to the citizens. And after the beginning of the story with a covid, wishing to live in the outback only becomes more. This is largely due to the growing popularity of remote work, which eliminates the need to drag to a stuffy office every day.

Today's edition. "Site" It will tell the story of a reader who admires the son of his mother’s friend. The man and his family moved to the village from a large city to live a new life. However, not all relatives appreciated his zeal for work.



My mother has an old friend whose name is Angela Igorevna, she lives in our village. Her son Stepan after school went to study in Kiev, where he found a job, married and even had children. He rarely visited his mother, but she always spoke of him with pride. Like, he’s my good, the capital’s guy, with a good job, he saved up for housing and for a car, writes Olga.



But about three years ago, Stepan seemed to be replaced. Before the birth of his third child, he and his wife sold outWe bought a house with a large plot of land in our village. My surprise, as they say, had no limit.”

“At first, few believed that Stepan and his wife would really stay here rather than flee to the city in a month or two. But they were serious. First they bought chickens, ducks and geese. Then they got the first cow so that the children always had homemade milk. Then they built a new barn and bought piglets.



“Today, Angela Igorevna’s son already has a farm to envy everyone. Three cows, a dozen pigs, a full bird yard. Stepan and his wife wake up at 5 a.m. to get everything done. And they do. Even kids get up early to help mom and dad!

“The wife makes cheese and sour cream, keeps something for herself, and the rest is taken to the market. We even agreed with local traders to bring their vegetables from the garden. They work late every day. But children from an early age are accustomed to work, they are in the fresh air and eat everything natural.”



“Everything seems fine. However, Angela Igorevna does not think so. She was the first to discourage Stepan and his wife from moving. The first one laughed when they decided to start a house. I still can't understand why my son's family moved to the wilderness.”

"Well, how could you take that and village? What do they do here? Do they see nothing but pigs and cows? What prospects can children have here? But they are also waiting for the fourth, Angela Igorevna once lamented in a conversation with my mother.



“It turned out that Angela Igorevna even managed to quarrel with her daughter-in-law. She accused her son of having been fooled by her that he had moved from town to village. And even demanded that Stepan sell these pigs with cows, and bring the children back to the capital, because otherwise they will not see a good life here.

“Of course, they did not listen, but were only offended that their mother interfered in their lives. I don't know who's right, but my mom and I are totally on Stepan's side. He and his family like this life. By their happy and friendly faces, this is very easy to read, Olga said.



Perhaps Angela Igorevna is simply worried about her only son. She may be afraid that he made a mistake that he will regret and that his children will have to pay for.

But if all family members like the new life they live, why change everything? Tell me which side you are on in this situation. Could you trade life in a big city for life in a village?
