# t' F) Y% \: v* K5 J( K一对老两口有两个女儿，
The older daughter was married to a man who sold umbrellas, while the younger one was married to a man who sold straw hats.                
* @2 c6 y9 z, h1 E4 [. |. z大女儿嫁给了一个卖雨伞的，二女儿嫁给了一个卖草帽的。

So she was never happy, rain or shine.

On sunny days, he would think that his younger son-in-law would sell lots of straw hats,
晴天时他想到二女婿的草帽会卖得好，
