The house the only one in the entire Valley sat on the crest of a low hill. Form this height one could see the river and the field of rope corn dotted with the flowers that always promised a thousand the morning Lencho who knew his fields intimately had done nothing else but see the sky towards the north east. Now we really going to get some water woman. The woman who was preparing supper replied yes god willing the older boys were working in the field while the smaller ones were playing near the house until the woman called to them all come for dinner it was during the meal that just as Lencho had predicted big drops of rain began to fall. In the north east huge mountains of clouds could be seen approaching the air was fresh and sweet. The man went out for no other reason than to have the pleasure of feeling the rain on his body and when he returned he explained these aren't raindrops falling from the sky they are new coins. The big drops are ten cent pieces and the little ones are fives with a satisfied expression he regerded the field of rope corn with its flowers draped in a curtain of rain. But suddenly a strong wind began to blow and along with the rain very large hailstones began to fall. These truly did resemble new silver coins. The boys exposing themselves to the rain out to collect the frozen pearls.
