In the story "The Wise Old Woman," the elderly people in the cruel lord's village are gradually sent away to the mountains as they are deemed useless and a burden to society. This harsh treatment reflects the lord's disdain for age and wisdom. However, the protagonist's grandmother, along with other elderly villagers, ultimately proves that their knowledge and experience are invaluable, as they help save the village from destruction. This shift highlights the importance of valuing elders and their contributions to the community.

What happened to the population in village and farms when more people leaving for the city?

The Population gradually decreases as many people, especially young adults go to work in the cities (As they perceive the cities as having more opportunities).

Eventually, if more people leave than join the village/farm, it is highly likely that it will become a ghost town.
