It began to rain in the early morning before daybreak. When the sun rose, everything was watery. I got up and felt a little dizzy. At the market I changed some money, had noodles and coffee, and got some groceries.
Back home, I noticed the wind from the recent thunderstorms had blown down some of the landlord's bushes near the front steps. He had tied them back upright with a rope.
The rain came so often now that I no longer needed to put the mop water into the moat or on any of the bushes. I noticed the landlord had cut the grass near the house.
On the way to the market I had seen corn growing near the high school, and a man hoeing his field into rows.
