当然！而且农民没有退休金，所以“养儿防老”的观念才那么根深蒂固。还有你说的什么住别墅，没错，他们不缺面积，但是大部分农村基础设施不完善，比如没有下水道，也不能用抽水马桶。

Of course! Furthermore, they don't get pensions, which is why the idea of raising sons to support you in your old age is so deep-rooted. Also, the thing you were saying about living in villas: you're right. They're not lacking in surface area, but the majority of the infrastructure is imperfect. For instance, there's no sewer and they can't use flush toilets, either.
