What does the Grain Rain solar term mean?

Guyu means "rain brings forth all kinds of grains" and it occurs when the sun reaches 30° of the ecliptic longitude on April 20 or 21 every year.
During the Grain Rain season, in southern China, "the poplar flowers have all fallen, the cuckoos are crying", willow catkins are flying, the cuckoos are crying at night, the peonies are blooming, and the cherries are ripe. The natural scenery tells people that it is late spring. At this time, the temperature in the south rises rapidly. Generally, the average temperature in late April, except for parts of northern South China and western China, has reached 20℃~22℃, which is more than 2℃ higher than mid-April. In the eastern part of South China, the temperature often rises above 30 degrees for one or two days, making people begin to feel the heat. The low-altitude river valley areas have also entered summer.
In ancient China, Grain Rain was divided into three stages: "The first stage is when duckweed begins to grow; the second stage is when cuckoos flap their feathers; the third stage is when hoopoes descend on the mulberry trees." This means that after Grain Rain, rainfall increases, duckweed begins to grow, then cuckoos begin to remind people to sow seeds, and finally hoopoes begin to be seen on the mulberry trees.
Grain Rain is the last solar term in spring. At this time, the seedlings in the fields are first planted and the crops are newly planted, which need rain the most. That is why it is said that "spring rain is as precious as oil." As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
