The family is harmonious and their life is good. One day, my husband was working in the fields. Suddenly, dark clouds came over, there was lightning and thunder, strong winds blew, and it started pouring rain. He didn't have time to get home, so he took refuge down a steep ravine. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Suddenly, a flash flood broke out and the water poured down, breaking the steep river bank. When the farmer was in a hurry, thinking about where to take shelter from the rain, he suddenly found a cave behind the collapsed steep bank. To avoid the rain, he rushed in. At this time, he stumbled, looked down, and found a golden calf. He was too happy to hide from the rain. He picked up the calf and ran home.
