Is it good to rain during the Great Heat?

The effects of rain during the Great Heat solar term on the climate in different parts of my country are different. During the Great Heat solar term, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are in the period of summer drought, and rain is very beneficial to the growth of crops. In the western parts of South my country, rain is very abundant, and rain and thunderstorms are most common during the Great Heat solar term, which often cause natural disasters.
1. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there is a saying that "the rain in Lesser Heat is like silver, and the rain in Greater Heat is like gold"
The high temperatures during the Great Heat period are a normal climate phenomenon. At this time, if there is not enough sunlight, the growth of warm-loving crops such as rice and cotton will be affected. However, continuous and long-term high temperature weather is very unfavorable to the growth of crops such as rice. If there is a summer drought, crop yields will decrease, so this saying came into being in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.
2. In some parts of my country, there is a saying that "heavy rains during the hottest days of summer, and frost appears for a hundred days."
This sentence means that if it rains on the day of Great Heat, frost will appear in 100 days. In fact, this statement has a scientific basis, because the Frost Descent solar term is almost 100 days after the Great Heat. No frost can be seen in some areas during the Frost Descent solar term, but if it rains on the day of the Great Heat, the weather during the Frost Descent solar term will be colder and frost can be seen.
