The rain poured down for a whole day and night. After the downpour, the dry land was rejuvenated, and the farmer's crops miraculously recovered. The old farmer, tears of gratitude streaming down his face, gazed at his revitalized fields. He understood this was a gift from heaven. From then on, the farmer cherished every drop of rain, worked diligently, and lived a happy life.
