rainwater

If you ask a child from the countryside what is the happiest child, I think those answers can be summed up in nature.

The wind, the water, the sun, the land, the colorful glow, the clear lake, the distant birds, the rabbits in the grass, the pheasants running, the herons in the water......

Here's just one example – rain.

When the rain is lovely, of course, it is a very hot summer, before the rain is hot and boring, the sound of the cicadas is so harsh, after the rain is cool and moist, the frog song is so crisp.

When I was young, I didn't like to wear shoes, especially like to contact the thick earth with my feet, and I felt that I was a child of the earth, after the rain, it was wet everywhere, and I didn't want to wear shoes, because I accidentally stepped on the mud everywhere in the house, and when the weather was sunny and the sun was shining, there was dust everywhere.

Generally, there is an early warning of rain, when it rains, probably there will be a little bit of a calculation in the heart, adults will call the children in advance to hurry home, so they move a wooden stool, dishonestly sit in front of the hall, waiting for the rain. Seeing that day changed a lot of colors, but always did not leak a drop, the children who couldn't sit still just ran out of the alley, but they were poured rain, the rain came quickly and quickly, the uncles and aunts who were working in the crops, were busy hiding from the rain, and it was also lively.

When it rains, the old house of the family is dim, and sometimes you need to turn on the lights to see clearly, and your favorite thing to do is to cover the quilt and blow the fan on a rainy day, and read those love story paintings that are not available, or the miscellaneous books that my father found out of nowhere.

After the rain, the parents are going out to work, fertilizing the family dealer, hoping to have a good harvest, of course, sometimes the rain is too abundant, but also need to prevent waterlogging, otherwise the harvest of half a year is gone, and the children are dripping with water, or catch the cicada before the moult, and catch those screaming toads, the dialect is called the air toad, because you touch its body, it will gradually get bigger, as if angry, rural children have an innocent side, but also there will be a cruel side, for the end of the bad air toad, it seems that there is no good result, it seems that I have also done bad things。

After the rain, there will be deep and shallow small pits everywhere, and you will feel close to nature from there, probably because the rain has just fallen from the sky, and it has a little "fairy spirit".

I suddenly thought of a bad trickster game, that is, to shake the tree after the rain, artificially create a sudden downpour, I don't know how many people have experienced it, being teased by friends, making a body of water, to chase and make trouble.

It was found that not only the children, but also the ducks seemed to like the freshly rained water, and happily swam in the small pool, making cheerful calls.

Nature is closely attached to us, you can feel it, listen carefully, you can hear the wind whispering in your ears, look into the distance, the colorful sunset, isn't it very beautiful, the orange sun, indescribable warmth.
